"Labour wants to Remain" - The Times Red Box

I heard him this morning Chewie , he certainly didn’t hold back did he ?

Tom Harris, Labour MP for Glasgow, has always been a strong campaigner for Leave and has resigned from the the Labour Party to join the Conservatives. He's the 3rd Labour MP to do so. Not got a positive word to say about Corbyn to put it mildly.

There will not be any donkeys wearing yellow rosettes.

In order to become a candidate for the Liberal Democrats, a potential candidate has to go through a three stage selection process.

Firstly they must be nationally approved, demonstrating they hold to the principles of the party and would not bring the party into disrepute.

Secondly, they apply to be considered for a constituency and go through an exhaustive shortlisting process.

Finally the shortlisted candidates present their case to all the party members in the constituency with their prospectusses, then at a hustings and the members make their choice.

At least the Tory voters who want to remain in the EU know what their choices are. Labour are not being honest about their EU stance, and traditional Labour voters who want to leave the EU are being lied to. As I said, who's the liar now?

Let em vote for the donkey wearing the yellow or red rosette - one donkey is much the same as another.....

What about all the Tory voters who want to Remain in the EU?

It hasn't happened yet because he's scared shitless of losing all of the traditional Labour voters who want to leave the EU. So, who's the liar now?

Because In the end for him, power matters more than his principles as it does for most politicians.

If the Labour Party really wanted to Remain, they should have joined with the Remain Alliance and they should have been prepared to stand down candidates in seats where the Liberal Democrats, Greens, Plaid Cymru or the Womens equality Party stood the best chance of defeating the Brexitories.

Why has that not happened yet?

Good article.

Corbyn has always been anti, in the lead up to the referendum he refused to take part in any tv debates and even went on holiday

At the very beginning over 3 years ago I remember Corbyn wanting to Remain as I fully expected him to do a U-turn as soon as a GE was mentioned because Brexit would give him a majority.

I don't think Corbyn truly wants to remain. All his dreams of nationalising this and that would go against EU rules on state subsidies.
OTOH he'd like Labour to be in power.
Hence his arse being superglued to the fence, so to speak.
