I'm unusual where I live as I'm not a Labour supporter. However I am in the minority and essentially a Gorilla could campaign and would win if he was the Labour candidate...
As a party leader however Corbyn is divisive and could break Labour for a long time to come.
He appeals to the hard left - but they were already voting Labour. His appeal to the centre ground - where they need to win votes is far more limited. While the Tory under Teresa May are at least talking the talk of taking more of the centre vote.
They've tried to oust Corbyn and failed. I think it will take one more ala Brexit type defeat, and there will be a split in Labour.
Despite not being a Labour supporter, I do think the government needs a real and credible opposition. At the moment it does not exist.
