How Boris Johnson exemplifies “mask off” Tories. The Lib Dems’ utter buffoonery. The UK media’s all out campaign against Corbyn. What’s with all the accusations of anti-Semitism? Eric Hobsbawm, Ed Miliband, and the Jewish left tradition. The possibility that Corbyn’s Labour could activate new voters with its frightfully good manifesto.

Hillary begrudges Bernie waiting to endorse her in 2016. Trump gets embarrassed on world stage in Biden campaign ad.
