Publisher's Synopsis
'The Little Book of Corbyn' is a fascinating collection of over 170 quotes from one of the most improbable leaders in British politics. By his own admission, uncompromising socialist and career backbencher Corbyn neither wanted nor expected to become Labour leader in 2015, and bookmakers gave him odds of a hundred to one. But 'Corbynmania' swept the country and resulted in his astonishing victory. Fast-forward to the general election of 2017, and Corbyn had caused an historic upset and shattered Theresa May's majority. Corbyn says that personal ambition has never interested him - and indeed, a big part of his appeal has been his lack of arm-waving bluster and understated style.
