Jeremy Corbyn (Vol. 3)

[Halb]

That's brilliant. Looks like Jon Pryce.

[Mort7]

Can't be Corbyn. He'd be sitting on the floor next to the empty seat, moaning about overcrowding.

He does a bit yes, but many people liken him to Corbyn.

It's 10ft tall btw.

I don't understand JC's position on requiring a Customs Union.

I don't agree with it, but even if you do, what is the point of saying it now? Under No Deal, or May's Deal, the future trading relationship discussions are all up in the air and will take a couple of years to negotiate. We will have plenty of time to debate that relationship in Parliament once we leave.

[jurbie]

I don't think he understands it either but he needs a position on something that he's clearly not that interested in and saying 'Customs Union' a lot is a neat soundbite so it's as good as anything else.

Corbyn is clueless on many things and throws out the "what about X" ste to create trouble and shift things from him being a baby and not wanting to talk to May. Perhaps if she is accused of terrorist offences he might give her some time.

In mind his ploy is very simple. By demanding the impossible as well as refusing to engage with TM he thinks he can avoid being implicated in the impending train wreck. It's all about his master plan to force an election. Either we crash out or take Mays deal, the country is pissed either way and he can point the finger. He may just get his election. If he does what is best for the country (debate/discuss) he gets no election and potentially blamed.

I think in the bigger picture, we will crash out unless Bercow indulges MPs with various motions (and oversteps again)

If Corbyn was in a position to negotiate Brexit, all he would do is extend Article 50 and 'negotiate'. Said negotiation would just be multi year never ending stfiest as we see now. He's like the arm chair critic watching football. Thinks they could manage the team better but doesn't have a clue

There is no deal he would support because he enjoys the perceived benefits in a divided Parliament/nation. Election Election Election.

Corby hates the EU, he wants right out of it but brexit is the conservatives doing, he doesn’t have a clue what’s best for the country.

The best thing Corbyn can do (for himself) is sit back and watch and sneak in an election at some opportune moment.

It's to deliberately pick something May probably can't agree to after being slated for not saying what he'd do for 18 months plus.

He's putting all his efforts into being contrary in the hope that people dissatisfied with May will see him as an alternative. And he's basically courting the remain vote without spelling it out in the hope leavers won't notice.

I don't think he gives a st about a customs union, it doesn't make any sense that he would.

Agree. When he had the same policy as the Tories (enact the result) he got beaten. He needs to have an opposing position (any opposing position, really) because in a head-to-head competency test, he loses.

Which is remarkable, really, given the levels of competency on display from May, but there we go.

Well, it's a fact that he couldn't turn us into Venezuela whilst tied to the EU. Brexit is just creating an opportunity to seize power. Kick the actual problem it brings into the long grass. Power at any cost is the game play.

It's pure, cynical politics of contraryism.

It'll play wonderfully with the small-minded band of rabid Tory haters he surrounds himself with, but everyone else sees it for what it is; a deplorably low tactic, by a very dubious politician. Now is the time for united, cross-party action, not political point-scoring.

Some of labour MPs are getting involved but they seem to be the blairites and centrists trying to get another referendum.

Must be tempting though if you’re the opposition, and the Conservatives are responsible for the referendum and now imploding and making such a mess of Brexit, not to just sit back and let them do it.

There are plenty of Labour MPs who are pro-Brexit too.

I'm more concerned about JC becoming Prime Minister and labour running the country than Brexit.
