How is Jeremy Corbyn’s Brexit position landing with his constituents? On Tuesday, Labour’s National Executive Committee came under pressure to change policy to campaign for a second referendum. However, they instead agreed to stick with the current Brexit fudge of keeping a second referendum merely on the table as an option if other plans failed.
It’s a decision that won’t please everyone in Corbyn’s pro-EU Islington constituency. A friend of Mr S noticed something rather interesting while on their run this week. Someone had redecorated the front door and windows of Corbyn’s constituency office with some bright yellow posters:
Emblazoned with some colourful slogans including “Jez needs to grow a pair” and “No deal is nuts, Jez!”, the posters highlighted Mr Corbyn’s decision yesterday to fudge Labour’s position on a second Brexit referendum.
Maybe they were suggesting ideas for a new Labour election leaflet? Mr S is sure Mr Corbyn would appreciate the input – the last version had to be withdrawn after someone “accidentally” left out any reference to a second referendum and instead promised to negotiate “better deal with Europe”.
