Has the Labour maifesto leak done Corbyn a favour?

These policies are really good. Who would have thought that a boring bloke with a beard would have ideas on how to make things better for the British people.

Don't read this btw. Just listen to Thereasa May saying 'strong and stable' at choreographed events. 馃槣

Was laughing watching ITV earlier. Reporter gleefully informing us how this would help the Tories and that Labour have brought the "chaos" of today upon themselves.

@thatscottishguy: More to the point is that the Labour Right (most probably Ian McNicol or Tom Watson) leaked it to give that impression. Leaks against Corbyn have happened for the last two years in order to make the Labour leadership appear weak and incompetent. Unfortunately it has had some effect.

However, this time it might have backed fired because it has generated extra publicity for Labour policies.
