Overall comparison

Jeremy Corbyn holds an Old Labour left wing ideology when compare to the Third way, New Labour by Blair. Jeremy Corbyn is more Left wing that Blair where as Blair adopted more policies from The New Right which meant some of his policies were influences by a right wing side. These two are different as they're firstly apart from the political spectrum.
