Back to Basics under Major led to the press finding out every last drop of infidelity from Tory MPs, and it meant they all had to resign from government when uncovered.
Blair was more tolerant, so people in government were allowed more leeway in their private lives. It's the way it is.

Why are women so fascinated by the man who could destroy Labour?
For Jeremy Corbyn has surged to the front in the Labour leadership race, to the deep consternation of his rivals.

Yes it was
Diane Abbott went told Jeremy Corbybn's wife to get out of town
Ms Abbott, pictured, then a young Left-wing activist, stunned her love rival Professor Jane Chapman – Corbyn’s first wife – by turning up on her doorstep out of the blue to demand that she leave London.

PVA didn’t know about him so it can hardly be that publicised?
the press frequently talk about Johnson from all sides. Max Hastings once put a huge very damming article about him in the Mail and there’s never been an attempt to cover up his womanising

Corbyn was hounded far more mercilessly by the same press which is the point

Discussing what an ex Labour leader did or didn't do almost half a century ago feels a little pointless, but did you actually read that article?
It clearly states that he split with his wife before he and Abbott got together.

Easy answer to that. A sympathetic media that has perpetrated this myth for decades.
It's the lack of competence of this Government that gets me. All this talk of morality and hypocrisy I sort of understand but the real problem is that they really have no foresight or ability to manage anything effectively.
Oh dear.
That's somehow both absolutely shocking and yet totally unsurprising at the same time.

You do realise prior to that incident he had the camper van road trip and a curious incident when he introduced her to his chums on a campaign trail - when she was in his bed
He’s been married 3 times and his known to be very passionate about women and socialism
Oddly Ms Alvarez became has girlfriend the day after another divorce though he’d known her for some time
it’s hilarious how you calm others bootlickers when he head is so far up Sir Kormas rectum you can probably taste the pilau rice

For balance 
I didn't really care who Corbyn slept with either, although I was kind of impressed that his principles were embedded enough he divorced one wife over the choice of school for their child!

As shmmeee says, if he shags Mrs Miggins for a pie I don't really care. If he shags Irena Spymorova for official secrets, I might be concerned.

It is an interesting conclusion to say the least. Does he clarify who banned him? I assume his employers?
As shmmeee mentioned earlier, kind of trashes polling companies as impartial data gatherers, doesn't it.

I'm not really sure how anyone can have trust in polling anyway. The whole brexit one should be a lesson on that really.

Everything was showing a remain win. It was quite a 'shock' when leave won. I'm sure many people are sceptical about many political readings, including polls, following that.

Polls showed remain was slightly edging it, and with the unfortunate circumstances before the voting date it was expected that the increase of a few days for more people to register to vote in the referendum would have favoured the remain camp slightly more.
Of the 12 Brexit polls released a week before referendum day, seven predicted a Remain victory, four predicted a Leave victory, and one was a dead heat. Only three polls showed a spread of more than five points. I (mis)remembered the Brexit polling as predicting a Remain victory across the board, but turns out I was wrong.

He seems to always hold back and looking down at his crib notes certainly doesn't help. Never the most spontaneous of leaders.

The third or fourth result coming into the BBC studio is quite remarkable, where they may think it will go to leave. The mics caught it all.
