Britain's Labour Party swing to the extreme Left with the election of veteran leader and MP Jeremy Corbyn will open the door to the politics of agitation and confrontation. All in the name of socialism - for the common good and an equal society as Labour would have us believe.
The ruling Tories have already called Corbyn a threat to the country and its institutions, and true to form the 66-year old hit the streets for the cause of Syrian refugees flooding Europe. Prime Minister David Cameron's government expressed fears about Corbyn's elevation because ''Labour are a serious threat to our country's security, our economy's security and your family's security,'' according to Defence Secretary Michael Fallon.
Labour, it seems, is proving the government right and is already on the warpath under Corbyn, who easily won against Centre-Left rivals. The new leader is opposed to the UK joining coalition air strikes against Daesh in Syria and Iraq. His anti-austerity, anti-nuclear, anti-war rhetoric may not make sense when terror makes headlines. The bearded politician appears to be a vestige of the Cold War era, yet he's reinvigorated certain sections, mostly youth in his campaign against the dangers of capitalism, and his tirade is essentially against West. What's even more worrying to the establishment is his pro-extremist policy. Corbyn favours talks with militant groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, who have a streak of violent socialism in their ideological DNA.
But love him or hate him, Britain's ruling establishment cannot ignore Corbyn, who will now lead the country's largest opposition party. Compromise will be key to take legislation forward that will benefit the country. National interests are paramount, but the Labour leader may not be open to give and take with the government. He apparent lack of ideas will pull him down because he's more about the problem than finding solutions to Britain's woes on issues like immigration and economic policy.
A hardening of positions on both sides is to be expected in the months to come. British politics is headed for some tumultous times.
