I don't think these are Corbyn's policy goals at all. Labour has clearly committed to a customs union. Their stances on the single market and freedom of movement are far from clear. Have they said anything about them? I certainly don't believe that they want to throw the baby out with the bathwater like the Moggies. Where I agree with you is that I think it may be possible that he may want to use the Tory mess as a cover for renegotiation. I don't think that would work with the EU, though.
So far the only line I've seen from Labour is that they want to guarantee EU citizens' rights, preserve EU institutions plus ECHR, have a customs union, and otherwise leave their options open.
As I said, I don't think the ERG types would eventually vote against May. They're far more worried about a Corbyn government. They'll keep their unity and wait for the moved goalposts.

Because he wants the same thing as Mogg. He won’t extend, he’ll blame the Tories for delivering what actually matches his stated policy goals- no CU, no SM, no FOM.
Also, do you think May can survive not getting a withdrawal agreement and the chaos that will follow? I don’t, hence GE soon.
