Abstract

On Tuesday last week, Jeremy Corbyn launched his party’s General Election campaign in Manchester. Labour would transform Britain, he said. It would rebuild the NHS, build a million homes to rent and buy, invest in skills and jobs and create a fairer, more equal country. On the same day, the Prime Minister appeared on the BBC’s popular early-evening programme The One Show. Sitting next to her husband Philip May (not the former Llanelli and Wales lock, I hasten to add), the conversation lacked political content and was predictably banal. Mr May quite liked ties, Mrs May liked buying shoes.
