Kenya has been independent since Dec 1963, so the wicked English can't be blamed for her "persecution" on this one. Added to that, she was raised in & around London, so how much actual experience does she have of the tribulations she's espousing?

I'm sorry mate, but my sympathy mode has been jerked around & pished about with so much, that my empathy levels are flat lining for the worlds poor, needy & desperate.

That aside, getting back to Corbyn, he may be popular with those of a certain leaning, but in the end it's same old, same old, tedious self serving politicoes looking out for themselves.
