Well known by who? Where are these people? Are they in the room with us right now?
There isn't anything to corroborate that he was ever either one of those, let alone switched. The people who didn't want him to win the leadership simply declared it to be thus and such. Despite their claims, that not the same thing as it being true.
The "he switch after he won the leadership" is the part they made up. You have to realise that the label of neoliberal was given to him not only by his enemies within the party but by people who also don't actually know anything at all about neoclassical economics and simply use the term as a slur to throw at anyone right of the socialist campaign group that they dont like. In fact, the term has all but lost its meaning due to them.
You'd have thought that there was something in-between being a socialist and a neoliberal but, Apparently, were to beleive thats not the case.
Well known by... his policies? The jury's still out because he only just got into power. He could go back to more Corbynite policies by stealth.
Na, his policies were nothing close to definitive on any positions. Honestly, that part of the left has been fighting the far right so long that they've lost track of where the lines are supposed to be and just lie as policy.
