A man we can believe in

Sitting in my car overlooking the lighthouse off the Mumbles, Jeremy Corbyn has just been announced as winning the election to the leadership contest. 
His win reflects a turning point, at least in the publics eye, away from the Westminster bubble of politics. Away from the resent stereotype of a career politician , a way of making a living instead of emotionally connecting with the people they represent.  They lived within the debating chamber of Westminster,competing for a sound byte or a picture opportunity, and the public became more alienated by the political class.  Listening to the Corbyn who isn't  afraid to speak of a wholly new way of ordering our political priorities the hope is we the public will regain our pre-eminence.
Politics is more than picking winners or more appropretly picking manifesto pledges which will appeal to the floating voter. Politics is about projecting a form off governance which is fair and equitable, 
The Tory voters, for a whole range of reasons would dispute that society, the whole of society represents who we are and would rather airbrush whole sections of society out of their conscience. Sadly we are cast in an Anglo / American capitalistic, market led society which shows little or no compassion for the less-well-off or the economically disenfranchised. Who, through the poor education which we dish out to our young people  ( I think we are 23rd in the world league tables) leave them ill equipped to compete. 
If one of our national characteristics is to uphold the divisive private (public) education, an educational system in which huge fees differentiate how a person will succeed, where the wealth required to afford those fees limits the human pool from which the education is available to 3% of the total population, if this is our "birthright" then we are a very squewed society and have little to feel proud about.
Of course irrespective of Corbyns success we are still left with the same media who weave their stories and sell them as fact. They will continue to misrepresent what he has to say. The satirist will twist, for a laugh what he propounds and misrepresent the message coming back from the people who so fervently need his leadership. That is the nature of our 21st century politics but perhaps the cynicism of the talking shop which make up the Bloomsbury set these days will pause to wonder how their world became so alien to the rest of their countrymen ?
