'Jeremy Corbyn is riding high in the polls and new YouGov survey data has shown that a majority of UK adults agree with some of his key policies.

The Labour leadership candidate has pledged to renationalise the railways and energy companies.

New polling data has shown that a majority of 1,707 British adults, surveyed by YouGov between 4 and 5 August, supported this policy.'

This could well backfire on the Conservatives and media,were Jeremy Corbyn to win this.
I have said all along he isn't my choice but he will for sure have a different message to everyone else as to policy and it is odd how people already like the sound of the re-nationalisation policies.

I never thought a day would come when I would support re-nationalisation but I for sure do now, as to gas, electricity, water and railways at the very least.
Now 2 leadership candidates are in favour of re-nationalising the railways,Jeremy and Andy Burnham.

It seems a few Conservative MPs are childishly paying the £3 fee now to join and get a vote in Labours leadership election,even a newly appointed Tory peer it seems who is an ex MEP.
How pathetic of them in my view.

2020 is a long way off however, again I say after the likely chaos of the EU referendum,whether the vote is in or out, the Conservative party is going to be probably even more divided.
David Cameron will be clearing off and likely being blamed and criticised very heavily for whatever result has come from the referendum.
Where the UK will need to move on to is very uncertain.

I still say, it may well be a time in 2020, where that alternative way and message, even if it is in part,old resurrected aims as to Labour from the past,could be what really appeals to a majority of voters.

Resurrecting old ideas of Thatchers from the 80s, worked for Cameron and co, so who knows what the UK will be looking for in 2020 and more to the point what will they 'need' to be looking for in 2020 too.
Jeremy Corbyn may just have the message that is looked for by then.
