Of course not. He'd not even manage anti-Semics or Brexit in his Party so how the heck could he manage UK Plc? He was out-of-his-depth. If in doubt have a look at his cv...the worst ever for a Labour Party leader.

Not a chance at this election.

Had he agreed to Theresa May's deal, which was no worse than Boris's, and had that parliament run it's course then maybe.

His manifesto was by far the most idiotic I have ever seen.  His cabal at the top of the party were seriously incapable.  Sad that 33% of the voting population couldn't see that. On his bare results, he hasn't done as bad as people are making out, but he was leader at a time when this Tory government was there for the taking, because of years of austerity and disparity in wealth.  Any centrist or right of centre Labour party, with credible policies and competent leaders would have won a majority.  They should really win the next one, but Momentum and Corbyn have done so much damage to the party, that they probably won't win that one either.

actually the SNP would have stopped them getting a majority, but I still think any centrist or right of centre Labour party, with credible policies and competent leaders would have got the most seats

No.  He's still a Communist.  Corbyn is pro-Brexit.  Trouble is, by coming out as pro-Brexit he is in agreement with the Government.  That put him in an awkward position because as the Opposition it's not ideal to be supporting the Government's stance on such a serious matter.

On the other hand, by coming out as an anti-Brexit party, you immediately lose Brexit-voters as well as Remain-voters who accept they lost and feel uneasy about having a democratic referendum overturned (yes, there are some out there).  The Lib Dems were staunchly anti-Brexit and probably felt they had a chance of wooing a good chunk of 15/16 million Remain-voters.  They didn't and finished one seat down.

the lib dem strategy was stark staring bonkers. they wrote off 52% of the electorate by going for revoke and even the most hapless labour performance was never gonna drop below 30%. they are just too many people who are tribal labour and will never put their cross anywhere else. that left the lib dems with just 18% to go at. possibly an over simplistic analysis but they were really fishing in a pretty small pool

Agree with Clydebank. If they'd cone to the rescue of May's deal the agenda would have moved on. Tory poll support collapsed in March at the same time as Labour's. Tories reinvented themselves as 'deal or no deal/GBD Party' and recovered.

The defeat was too huge for it just to have been about Labour's stance on Brexit, incoherent though it was.

The 'Jackanory' manifesto and its inherent racism would - hopefully - have been sufficient for Labour to have been rejected by the electorate no matter what

Labour runs most successful election social media campaign ever seen

Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party have run the most successful election social media campaign the country has ever seen.

Jeremy Corbyn’s digital strategy centres around making viral persuasive content – bypassing the media and breaking out of the bubble.

Analysis shows that:

On Facebook Jeremy Corbyn and Labour achieved 86.2 million views on campaign videos, compared with only 24.5 million views for Boris Johnson and the Conservatives.
And the three most successful videos from politicians or political pages of the campaign so far were all released by Labour:

Rob Delaney on the NHS. Total: 13.3m. Twitter: 6.5m. Facebook: 6.8m.
Jeremy Corbyn 60 second challenge. Total: 6.9m. Twitter: 2.8m. Facebook: 4.1m.
Scapegoating politician. Total: 6.5m. Twitter: 4.6m. Facebook: 1.9m.
