He already has caused more harm than good to the Labour Party over his stance on Brexit.

He’s been a Euroskeptic since the 70’s he sees the EU as a neoliberal capitalistic endeavor which stands against everything he stands for.

Over the past 2 years now he showed no opposition to Brexit which goes against the wishes of his party members and their constituents and against the ideals of being an opposition party.

I really don’t see him changing his tune now as he showed he is incapable of letting his own ideals take the backseat to the will of the party.

A trait that has garnered him many followers.

Fewer and fewer every day. Like Trump, Corbyn has a hard-core minority that will back him no matter what, but his support within the general party diminishes every time a new poll comes out and his popularity within the general electorate is currently down in the rubbish levels enjoyed by our sad PM. He may currently be seen as the lesser of two evils, but not by much.
