Brexit is happening. Deal with it. Just because a handful of you on here don't want it, don't think you represent the majority of people in the country.

As I also say TRB, there are days I wonder if Corbyn is a long term plant by the Tories to destroy the Labour party. Back in December, a YG poll said Labour support drops from 36% to 22% if they support Brexit in a GE. A couple of days later, Corbyn writes a piece in the papers saying he wants a GE and he would campaign supporting Brexit.Last week, the TSSA had polling done which they passed onto Momentum. It said that supporting Leave would be as bad for Labour as the Iraq War. A few days later, Corbyn writes a letter to May offering a process by which Labour will facilitate Leave. It's utterly perverse. But if course, those who have drunk the Holy Water of the Church of the Blessed St Jeremy are certain it's a brilliantly conceived plan to......well it doesn't matter what it's designed to do. It's Jeremy's idea therefore it must be infallible.

It's Jeremy's idea therefore it must be infallible. When I talk about Corbyn in quasi-religious terms, it's obviously for comedic effect. Pointing out that Corbynistas are so averse to accepting any criticism of their man, that it's as though they consider him to be the Son of God.Of course, I don't REALLY think that they hold him up as a saintly icon. It's just a technique to highlight the lack of critical appraisal going on. And then THIS today from the head of the Communications Workers Union. https://mobile.twitter.com/DaveWardGS/status/1094514205565300736Corbyn was put on this earth to right all wrongs apparently.
Wasting your time IDM. You're not going to change the minds of folk like AL. There's about 25% of the population who are utterly immune to any rational discussion on the topic. The job is to get folk who actually engage with thinking about Brexit to realise the consequences.
