Corbyn is simply too left wing to get elected inthe same way that UKIP are too right wing

Corbyn's Labour won't get elected unless they undergo a complete change of heart and become more mainstream.
That may mean dumbing down somewhat on their core beliefs such as unilateralism and not shooting to kill terrorist suspects etc, but that's what it will take, because without it, his party will tear themselves apart internally - its starting to happen already. That will be a shame, because our system always needs a strong opposition, whatever the Govt in power.
