Every December in recent years, I consider back to the time when Jeremy Corbyn, then the leader of the opposition Labour Party in my adopted counattempt, the United Kingdom, quoted from a New Year’s speech that had a familiar ring to it. “This year will be tougher than last year,” he stated. Corbyn’s words were familiar becautilize he was quoting Enver Hoxha, the infamous communist leader of my native counattempt, Albania, who added, “On the other hand, it will be clearer than next year.” The comment cautilized an uproar, with some seeing it as evidence that Labour had turned into a Marxist cult, while others decried its insensitivity to the traumas left open by Albania’s communist past.
