However, that didn't happen, and if anything websites like The Canary, which played a major part in keeping Corbyn in his job last year have been key players in the online election battle, with articles from places like The Canary and Another Angry Voice often being more widely circulated than election stories from the mainstream Tory press.

I'm still not a fan of such websites. But now more people will be taking a lot more notice of their influence.
