Likewise, it's fairly evident that at his very core... Corbyn is not pro-EU.
I dunno where this new narrative that Tories were "the Brexit party" and Labour "the remain party" ever came from... people have very short memories, I guess... many high-profile Tories, like May, were very much on the Remain bus before the vote. It wasn't and still isn't an issue that divides neatly along party lines, at all. |
Yeah agree with all this too.
The Tories apart from the rebels and Ken Clarke and Anna Soubry but the actual government seem to on the face of it have a clearer party line than Labour but we all know the PM has had to take a stance she disagrees with and probably would not be disappointed with a softer Brexit wheras Davis and Mogg are hardline Leavers.
The government though atleast in public do seem to be singing from the same hymn sheet even if we know better
