Mostly I just add comments to tweets. I realise there has not been the updates on this blog as previously. Things just seem to continue as before. I am concluding that the media opposition to corbyn is deep and consistent over time. Explains much of the reporting on Brexit. I am even beginning to think the problem facts about Corbyn are discovered roughly in proportion to how large the problem is for government and Conservative Party. Just seems to take up the news without reporting what is happening. Observer yesterday mostly about antisemitism. How much are they really concerned about Brexit? Is the second referendum really an issue or just another issue to knock Corbyn? Seems to have vanished this week after the clarity on policy. Tey might have had some space just to underline it. Sunday Times headlines an ERG peace offer turns out to be a set of demands. Following a tweet from Paul Mason I went back to find some hidden paragraphs ona poll showing fairly solid support from Labour voters for Labour policy. I missed it the first time, page mostly graphics of the "big beasts" - David Davis and Boris Johnson. So investigative reporting has become a plug for latest ERG views. Telegraph today claims that negotiations have given up. So Murdoch and Telegraph still pushing away at Brexit. Corbyn not reported for anything positive he actually has to say. Same in referendum. Guardian / Observer may think they have a smaller possible audience anyway with the higher prices so why bother with Labour voters. they may imagine a shiny centre somehow. Trouble is it fails as reporting. there is a lot happening but can only be guessed at. Media frantic for spin, not sure what. Politics games of dare and chicken. Expect a news event to be reported online somewhere not in the UK although this is where it will happen. Not sure what but current situation very strange.
By the way, Corbyn punched but this is not news.
