WHEN Jeremy Corbyn became leader of the Labour Party in 2015 there was dismay that the centre-Left had W become politically homeless. It's now almost certain this trauma is about to be inflicted on the centre-Right. Defeat in next year's general election will set loose populist factions waiting in the corners of a Conservative Party that is already falling into disarray.
What characterises these factions some vanity projects, some personality cults, others tributaries of thought from an increasingly radicalised membership - is delusion. Like any party at the end of a natural cycle, the Tories are exhausted and prone to incrimination.
Worst of all they have no discipline, a sure sign of collective breakdown. And just as Labour veered from electability under a Corbynista wedge emboldened by entryism and fantasy, the Tories are walking inexorably into their own wilderness. The response of Right-wing commentators to yet more disastrous by-election defeats was to say: "Be more Right wing." This is the essence of Torbynism.
