You are aware that until the referendum campaign Corbyn was a life long Eurosceptic aren't you? And that Theresa May campaigned to remain? She can ham up her 'no deal is better than a bad deal' all she likes, but beneath the surface of party politics he is more opposed to the EU than she is, just for completely different reasons. I also don't get what's 'watered down' about his (or rather Labour's) vision of Brexit - they ran on a manifesto that pledged to leave the single market. You do know this right?
I think the only person that is going to be disappointed is you, and it won't be other parties trying to water down your vision of Brexit - it'll primarily be Tory backbenchers. Only time will tell, but I'd wager that I'll be proven right on this (and I'll be happy to admit if I wasn't - will you?). I'm not sure why you're making assumptions about what I'd prefer anyway - in some respects I'd like this government to push on with the reckless agenda they're seeking, because the inevitable disastrous fallout will hopefully bury the Tories for a generation.
