Are you suggesting that only people who are "left wing" want to stay in the EU?... Do you actually know what any of these terms mean, or are under the impression that they're some sort of "team names"? "Team Right likes Brexit! Team Left is remoaners and such!"

A lot of right-wing heavy hitters stand to lose a lot from exiting the EU. Cameron was pro EU. George Osbourne was pro EU. Theresa May was pro EU.

Are they all "lefties", too?


Sigh. Tony Blair was / is a bona-fide right-of-center neoliberal. It's not a debate he just.. is. Those are his politics. You can't go stamping your feet and insisting he's actually "not right wing" because you don't like him / Labour and have decided in your head that "Right Wing = The Good Guys so he can't be right wing".
