Can someone please educate me? What's the difference between May and Corbyn? I hear he's a loon but not much else.

I'm an ignorant Yank, but if British political cartoons and random Brit forum posters are any indication, he's a bicycle-riding, jam-making, Trident-hating old style communist who had Bernie-like popular support among the British left, especially younger voters, but isn't particularly effective as an actual leader of a political party.

He's Pro-Leave though, so there's that.

EDIT: Here's a British political cartoon from August 2015, when either Trump or Corbyn becoming the leaders of their respective nations was still considered a statistical impossibility:

Update,
May is going to the Queen this afternoon to seek permission to form the next government after securing the support of the Democratic Unionist party in Northern Ireland (Loyalist pro Ulster party) which she needs to give her a small majority in Parliament.
May's position has been seriously weakened (strong and stable is now a political joke) and a leadership election in the Conservative party within the next 6 months. Amber Rudd is considered the most likely replacement.
The reason May called the election was to gain a stronger mandate for her Brexit negotiations due to start in 11 days. This is now in tatters as she no longer has a majority in Parliament.
Corbyn is claiming victory despite having fewer seats than the Tories and not being able to count on Liberal Democrat support for a coalition government along with the Scottish nationalists.
The SNP has lost 21 seats to both the Tories and Labour which has killed the chances of a new independence referendum in the near future.
UKIP's leader Paul Nuttal has resigned after their share of the vote dropped from 4 million to 600,000.
The Green Party has retained it's MP.
I have not yet been raped but many of my previous girlfriends have been stoned and I predict many of my future ones will get stoned too.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.
