I read plenty of sources I don't agree with, including The Times and The Telegraph. The idea that The Express is 'fact based' is laughable, alternative facts maybe? Tabloids should be treated with caution, and yes that includes The Mirror.

Anyway, why did you choose to concentrate on the last five words instead of the rest of my post?

Of course it will be a long drawn out complicated process that will involve many but, if like some, you are hoping for a Brexit, moulded and watered down to such an extent it would meet Corbyn's 'standards' I think you will be disappointed.

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.
