Not for me, I recall him and his unpleasantness from years back.
As for the supposed message of support from Bernie Sanders:
Quote:
Jeremy Corbyn was left red-faced after his claim that he'd received a supportive message from Bernie Sanders was denied by the US senator.
It comes after the Labour leader told supporters at a phone bank on Monday evening in Walthamstow that the former Democratic hopeful for President had been in touch with his aides to draw parallels between their left-wing campaigns.
But a spokesman for Mr Sanders, who was beaten by Hillary Clinton to the Democratic nomination, told the Huffington Post: “The senator didn't send a message and doesn't intend to get involved in British politics but he admires Mr Corbyn and wishes him well.”
Of Mr Sanders supposed message, according to the Press Association, Mr Corbyn had said: “We had a message yesterday from Bernie Sanders saying that they condemned him because he wasn’t electable.
“And he said the reason they condemned him was because he was electable. And he represented a threat to the establishment within the USA.”
“So I think you can see the parallels that are going on there,” he added.

Yet another red face for Corbyn, well I suppose that's to be expected from someone so rooted in the leftist politics of the past.
I think what's going on here is that Corbyn and his cronies are making it up as they go along. He seems to have his very own version of the Midas touch which sadly for him, results in everything he touches going wrong...
