The problem is Corbyn (and his supporters) have painted the man as a scrupulously honest, principled man, who's above the petty double-dealing of your average politician.
It basically boils down to the following options:
1: Jeremy Corbyn's team is so incompetent it couldn't even book its leader a train ticket with a seat reservation, and even so, he managed to get a seat in the end. They then film this to make out the train was full up.
2: Jeremy Corbyn's team purposefully booked a ticket without a seat reservation, meaning it was all a set up to start with.
