Corbyn: First they ignore you...: '... a media narrative charting Jeremy Corbyn's rise from backbench obscurity to leader of the Labour Party...' - Paperback

by Orwell Danes (Author)

Orwell Danes takes you on a journey with Jeremy Corbyn to discover how it feels to be loved and loathed in equal measure... Jeremy Corbyn served his Islington North constituents for thirty-two years from the backbenches of the Houses of Parliament before rising to the prominent position of Labour Party Leader on 12th September 2015. No stranger to being ignored, Corbyn has fought for everything he believes to be right, often without the support of his Labour Party colleagues. The book tells the tale of Jeremy Corbyn's rise from obscurity to prominence through the narrative of the British press. From the day he announced his candidacy to the day after his victory in the Labour Party leadership contest, it charts the furore within a dramatic Four-Act structure that will expose the power of democracy in the face of media uncertainty. Never again will you read the daily paper in the same way...
