Analysis: Biographer claims Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn is a Trotskyite who eats beans from the can and wants Brexit to fail
Opposition Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn reacting as Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May speaks to the House of Commons in London. By William Booth William Booth London bureau chief Email Bio Follow February 28 at 12:08 PM LONDON — It’s a good and a bad time to be Jeremy Corbyn, the leader of the opposition Labour Party in Britain.
Into the fray, Tom Bower, a veteran investigative journalist, released his unauthorized biography, “Dangerous Hero: Corbyn’s Ruthless Plot for Power.” The anti-Corbyn Daily Mail on Sunday published a long excerpt. The pro-Corbyn Mirror called it a hatchet job. Gaby Hinsliff in a review in the Guardian said while Bower may overreach — condemning Corbyn for eating cold beans out of a can — his book nonetheless is “the most compelling in-depth study so far of a man whose head is unusually difficult to get inside.”
TB: The reason you should be frightened of him is because he’s a communist. Not slightly left, but a fully fledged Trotskyist communist and has been for many years. His agenda is to pursue a policy in Britain similar to Hugo Chávez in Venezuela. He believes in the confiscation of wealth, he doesn’t believe in equality or opportunity. He believes in the equality of poverty, if anything. He wants to create a nonmaterialistic, equal society. He’s against success.
