It certainly does. It's the language of Churchill delivered by a Corbynite. (Lloyd Russell-Moyle, who won in Brighton Kemptown, albeit with a 7% swing against him).
The demogogic body language and dramatic turning away from the crowd at the end though? As Ken Livingstone might say, do you know who else used body language like that while ranting?
It's the finger more than anything. The impulse to break into a 'Roman salute' at the end must have been strong.
ReplyDeleteWell done him for resisting.
