      Not really, no. He's not too involved with party politics anymore. Still makes shitty comments from time to time about "combating populism", but mostly he just runs his foundation for peace and stability in the Middle East (really)

      I'm not that in touch with UK politics

      I meant when he was elected and largely blew the whole fucking thing by trying to play Greece to America's Rome

      He set a precedent that allowed Corbyn's labour to smeared as both dangerous revolutionaries and as establishment liberals.
