  • Apologies if I'm being a bit thick here, but isn't this:

    What we should have done, following June 2016, is accepted the result, said it was for the government to negotiate an agreement but reserved our right to critique that agreement and should it fail to be a good deal for the country, advocate the final decision should rest with the people.

    what Labour were going for with a second referendum?

    "Sure, you voted to leave, but let's just confirm you wanted to leave in the way that has been decided after these years"

  • There was months/years of infighting and unnecessary opaqueness first

  • what Labour were going for with a second referendum?

    Also, I think he is trying to say Brexit is a conservative thing, they need to own it. So avoid a GE until the deal is done by a Conservative govt, or the second ref has been forced by a remain alliance.

  • Yep. A reasonable position, from Blair or Corbyn.

    Was that ever Blairs position before now? I'm sure he was hard remain?
