Red Jezza goes green

POLITICS is all about hard choices. Just ask Jeremy Corbyn. On one hand, you want to remind your core supporters you’re a cuddly, caring sort so you tell the world you are toying with ‘going vegan’. On the other, you want to show solidarity with the workers, so you come out in support of the ‘brave’ McDonald’s strike. Never stopping, of course, to worry that serving meat patties may be at odds with vegan values.

But then such cynicism is becoming Corbyn’s defining feature as he attempts to be all things to all men.
