Jez we can???

So what do we make of Jeremy Corbyn, the new leader of the Labour party?  I think he's going to have the same problems as Ed Milliband, only more so.  He is a creature of the unions and the hard left and that isn't going to play well with the electorate at large.  So, like Milliband, he is caught between a rock and a hard place.  Does he act so as to appease those who voted him in, which will not win him any elections, or does he seek popular approval, which will alienate those who voted for him?  His choice of shadow cabinet certainly seems to suggest that he's going for the former, in which case it's probably going to be Michael Foot all over again.
