Would Labour have won this election with Jeremy Corbyn as leader?

I am neutral in this argument - initially voted for Corbyn as leader, but wanted him to leave after 2017. Didn't vote for Keir in the leadership elections and frustrated by labour over the past few years.

What happened?

Labour sacrificed left wing voters concentrated in metropolitan areas to gain middle class semi rural votes. Running a campaign that was almost entirely about being stable and competent.

The overall vote went down, the vote share went up and it was much more widely distributed.

This was a tactic for this specific circumstance and has worked wonders.

The right of the tory party voted remain - the centre ground almost entirely voted Labour and lib dem - that is the largest pool of voters.

Delighted by the week since the election.
 
That's insane how someone from reform could have the greens as a second choice, they couldn't be further apart, other than them both living in fantasy land to a degree.

The 25% N/A's are clearly FRNJ's, and 36% Tories not far behind.

There is a lot of people who are skint who have been conned that immigrants are the problem and their problem mind, people who really should be on the left, who have been poached by the far right, but you can't stop people being gullible. Loads of them won't even realise there is another realistic choice as the fear of immigrants is just so high, 16% seem like they want to understand.
