New post: There is only one alternative to Prime Minister Boris Johnson https://mainlymacro.blogspot.com/2019/07/there-is-only-one-alternative-to-prime.html … Corbyn may not be a great or even a particularly good leader, but it seems few in the media recognise he is the only viable opposition to the far right we have.

You are making assumptions here. If Labour members didn't think he could win an election they wouldn't keep him in power. I talk about this in the post.
That isn't necessarily true, anyway. This stuff is tribal. Momentum would probably prefer Corbyn losing to centrist winning. And then it's a numbers game.

Well it certainly seems if some Labour supporters in the media and elsewhere would prefer to see Corbyn lose to Johnson than win.

Yes. It's tribal. But that doesn't help your point! (We saw this with Labour in the early 1980s. People on the Left are waiting for history to work its inexorable way out. It's a long project. Centrists think this is bonkers. Polarization & loathing is the result.)
