BBC R5 Adrian Chiles standing in for the supine John Pienaar,
was just suggesting that maybe even a majority of those who voted Leave,
wanted a 'No Deal' brexit.
Given the info upthread that even rabid brexitteurs like Hannan
were stating the UK would remain in the Customs Union,
it seems the BBC are upset that Corbyn has drawn a Red Line
of 'Withdraw the No Deal option before talks'.

Corbyn missed an open goal there - he should have agreed to talks, come out afterwards and said “I went to meet the PM with an open mind but none of her red lines have changed and she won’t rule out no deal”.

All the focus would then have been on May, not him.

Can't disagree with that.
The historic nature of May's defeat has, instantly, slipped into history,
with, seemingly no benefit to either Labour or Remain.
