Rather like Jura I feel I have been on the defensive where Corbyn is concerned for years because so many chose to attack absolutely everything about him. As it turns out I like the Green New Deal and they seem to be the only party attempting to deal with the racism in the country while other talk about it being everyone's fault but theirs. I have seen the attacks from big money and those with very regressive views and had to ask myself why. Perhaps, in the end, I am going for Labour in spite of Jeremy Corbyn.
I know not all policies will be carried out but the Labour Party, in some ways my second choice after the Greens, has more chance of setting the direction of travel for the Green New Deal.
I don't vote because if what my ancestors did, although I am glad the radicals of their day fought in all the ways they knew for democracy. I vote, come what may, as my fight for continued democracy. That, to me means a "no vote" is an abdication of our promises to future generations and I prefer to look to the future rather than the past.
