• Clutching at straws with this sentence

    Clutching at straws now means "to take at face value"?

    I completely retract my accusation of Sophistry Oliver, you can speak only the unvarnished truth.

  • That sentence read in full:

    Clutching at straws with this sentence doesn't change the fact that there are plenty of things in there that explicitly rule out a hard 'Brexit': rejection of a 'no deal' scenario, etc.

    As Mrak says, very politely, it seems 'unusual' for Labour to become a party of a hard 'Brexit'.
