Corbyn reporting slips back

Just about on topic for this blog.

Owen Jones on the Marr Show used a tablet when reviewing "the papers" to find tweets direct from Jeremy Corbyn.

I wondered if the speech about "warped and degrading culture" had been reported so later found it at the end of a story about Gove and Weinstein "joke" . Today prog sets news agenda maybe or just why not ignore Corbyn as much as possible unless there is something negative.

Going back to the referendum I still think that Corbyn made a major contribution that was not reported. This now continues, outside the general election rules on balance etc.

Nick Cohen wants leadership to counter Brexit but claims ( now in photo caption of Corbyn online) that Corbyn has spent his career "opposing EU on infantile-leftist grounds".

Well we are in a world of alternative facts. See previous posts in this blog on what I think actually happened during the referendum.

Will Hutton suggests that there may be a turn in opinion about Brexit

Events, along with the implosion of the Conservative party, may convert a small majority to the merits of staying inside the EU. But to seal the deal, there has to be a credible offer of change to the left-behind, white working class and the parts of the country in which they live and recognition of the vital need to shore up threatened identities.
If Remain had done that – and fought as a cross-party coalition putting Britain and its great values above party affiliation – it would have won in June last year. If disaster is to be averted, it must learn the lesson – or leave the field to an increasingly vicious right and decades of fury and self-examination as the country asks how ever it was led to such severe self-harm.

Well, what was Corbyn saying during the referendum and how was it reported? Lord Mandelson and Will Straw spent most of the time following Cameron. When space was made for Labour it turned out to be George Brown. Lord Darling did share a platform with Osborne. Corbyn knocked for pointing out this budget idea not cleared with him. etc etc see previous posts.

If the Remainers want support from Corbyn, why not quote what he said in referendum as a start? The soft coup needed a story but times need another one, closer to truth.
