In the week where Labour held its party conference and Momentum ran its festival, The World Transformed, the word of the week is:
Jeremania
A devotion to Jeremy Corbyn that transcends uncomfortable youth hostel bunks, early morning fringe meetings and queuing in the rain.
Origin:
Heard at conference.
Usage:
“Why are all these young folks coming in Liverpool? It’s Jeremania.”
“I think after his speech re reached peak Jeremania.”
“Is Owen Smith not feeling the Jeremania.”
