Jeremy Corbyn is a quietly spoken, gentle individual who does not demand that you listen to his opinions. They are the sort of opinions a lot of people hold when they are young, such as wanting an end to poverty, hunger, unemployment, imperialism and war, and wanting the children of poor families to have the same chance in life as middle-class children.
What makes him unusual is that he will be 50 in ten days. - Observer (Michael Carlson)
