When Alan Johnson says @UKLabour was “almost wiped out” because of @JeremyCorbyn, it is hyperbolic, bitter nonsense.
We’ve lost FOUR elections not just two.
At the least election we got over 10M votes & in 2017 we came the closest we have to power since Blair; 40% (nearly 13M).

. @JeremyCorbyn was just 2,227 votes from the chance of being PM in 2017.
Yes, we lost badly in 2019 (not denying it) but you have to ask what it was that a) saw Labour’s membership increase & b) saw us come close to power in 2017.
Not everything was negative & CONTEXT matters.

The party was in a state before Corbyn & to just ignore those years because you dislike Corbyn, & what he stands for, suggests to me that you aren’t worth listening to.
If it was all so disastrous, why did @Keir_Starmer stick around in the Shadow Cabinet? He’s part of that era.
