Yes, we all know the right wing media smear campaigns against Corbyn skewed public opinion. And we know you have been suckered in big time. I await your copy and pasting of Guido anti Corbyn tweets...It could be (a lot) worse

though lets not forget that polls (especially you gov ones about labour) apparently dont mean anything... (people allegedly only post them to be annoying)
But that was not the only factor, to discount the fact that Brexit played a big part in that election result is missing the point. It was the Brexit election and Starmers policy failed.
Also, at least the public knew what Labour's position was back then. Now it is generally backing the government, making small criticisms/ tiny tweaks to Tory policy or fence sitting.
