General Election 2019

Not sure that's true. They could have made the point, less hyperbolic, difficult to swallow for many I agree, that Brexit will happen, we follow the mood, with the caveat that don't expect immediate gain. But we will honour the referendum. Corbyn was/is always a Eurosceptic, like many left leaning folk, on account of what they see as power vested in an undemocratic elite. Apart from many other areas where one might distrust him (not I , I should add) it came off as half hearted London-centred remain behaviour.

But then none of their manifesto could happen - they'd have to tell the electorate that they would preside over a Labour version of austerity. Not a chance that that message (as honest as it would be) would win any votes.
