WHEN all the dust has settled, most expect Labour’s Brexit policy will end up as a commitment to negotiate an alternative deal with the EU and to then put that deal to the public in a “confirmatory vote” with Remain on the ballot paper.
This is an extraordinary shift. Only two years ago, we mobilised to fight a general election, promising to respect the referendum without even committing to a transition period, let alone membership of the single market or a customs union.
Yet, despite this shift, Jeremy stands accused of “betraying Remainers.” Sadly, our political discourse is in the grip of a culture war where anything Brexit-related is framed in this increasingly polarised way.
