Propping up a Tory Government because of your centrists outrage over Brexit really is ditching the worst-off
In my experience #fbpe represents the middle classes who are comfortable enough to be blind to everything other than Brexit

Ditching the worst-off AND propping up the Tories by supporting Brexit, all in the hope of winning enough Tory/UKIP voters to win a GE, really isn't what Labour shld do. IME, Brexit is supported by comfortably-off pensioners & outright racists: cosily sure Brexit won't hurt them.

Not chasing Kipper votes but wanting to respect democratic decision (however flawed) and retain our own voters. As I said earlier, 2/3 of Labour held seats in leave areas I'm not a Brexiteer but many who were are Labour voters

And you feel that the minority of Labour Leave voters will ditch Labour for UKIP/Tory if they don't get Brexit - and so Labour should chase their votes, but take for granted the majority of Labour Remain voters, cocky they'll vote Labour without being chased?

No, I recognize that we had to respect the referendum result. We've given the Tories the opportunity to negotiate it and now the house of cards will collapse. As Kier said all options will be on the table

Labour *has* to respect the referendum result in England & Wales? That takes priority over EVERYTHING - like defending the poor & vulnerable, protecting jobs, supporting the NHS, & opposing the far right? Really? As Corbyn said - he wouldn't stop Brexit if he could.

Corbyn was asked if he could stop Brexit, would he? He said "we can't", & referenced not his lack of a majority, but Article 50 & the 2016 referendum result. So it's wouldn't if he could.

I'm not 'interpreting'. I'm reporting directly & clearly what Corbyn said in the DS interview.

If you prefer to differ from the facts with your own private interpretation, you're free to do that, of course.
