   • 2015 December 15, Matthew Lynn, "Whoever wins the US presidency, the economy is going to be the loser", The Daily Telegraph:

     The trouble is, the choice is a dismal one. If you think Corbynomics is wacky, take a look at Trumponomics.

   • 2018 May 17, “Corbynomics would change Britain—but not in the way most people think”, in The Economist‎^[1]:

     Piecing together Corbynomics is difficult, not least because it has evolved during Mr Corbyn’s time in charge of Labour. The gulf between the Labour leadership’s past positions and the milder proposals in the manifesto means that enormous uncertainty hangs over what a Corbyn-led government would do in office.

   • 2019 March 6, Patrick Maguire, “The Conservatives are losing on knife crime, and three other lessons from this week’s PMQs”, in New Statesman‎^[2]:

     The Labour leadership’s calculation is that Corbynomics couched in these terms – as a fiscal remedy to social ills - is a proposition the public agrees with. May’s faltering performance will only boost their confidence.
