A free and healthy society would not work this way.

Evidently it does. If you listened to the media and polling here in 2016 you'd really thought you were wasting your time going out to vote for Donald Trump. Yet despite all the media one sided hype in favor of Hillary Trump won the presidency. So far from everyone I know and hundreds I've blogged alongside the last three years not a one of them claims the Russians influenced them to do it.

I hardly doubt the media played as big a roll as you assume. People voted and gave them a directive. They failed to deliver. You take that, the economy, globalization and it's effect on their economy, and immigration....which isn't just viewed economically...

...and you have a hornets nest on your hands, unfortunately for Corbyn they were all busy bee's buzzin' to vote.
