This past Saturday saw the end of the labour leadership battle as Jeremy Corbyn unanimously won the vote to become new labour leader - and even though he's come under intense scrutiny due to his hard-line left-wing views which seem to be opposed by a lot of the other members in the Labour party, this may incite the huge reshuffle that many politicians expected to happen if Corbyn took over.
For the first time, we have seen Corbyn create what is to be named 'Minister of Mental Health' which to say that is a long time coming would be an understatement - with this creation of Corbyn's we may finally see mainstream politics take mental health as seriously as it should have always been, and with a minister for mental health this can also help the cabinet to work alongside the NHS in providing a stronger, sturdier service on mental health issues.
Various members of the front bench of the Labour Party have stepped down - former possible candidate Chuka Umunna stepped down after him and Corbyn 'didn't share the same belief' on remaining a member nation of the EU. However with the more individuals who step down, we will see the uprising of a new Labour Party, a Labour Party designed by Jeremy Corbyn who will continue to focus on working towards a better future - not just for the country, but for the individuals and their own individual rights.
