I said ‘best hope’ of those advocating this position, not ‘well this is nailed on.’ Tho I do think in practice a change of govt would be reasonable cause to extend talks esp if felt that wd lead to more realism from uk

Nope. Testimony in some cases to failure of govts/society to spread economic benefit widely; in others, nothing to do with deprivation but with age.

But if they want labour voters to give up on People’s Vote/chance to stop Brexit then they should be providing a better explanation than ‘dont worry it’ll all come out in the wash’.

Best hope seems to be either 1.change of govt gives excuse to delay talks long enough for something (?) to change or 2.existence of lab govt reassures lab leavers there’s another answer to their problems

Obv they cd deliver jobs-first Brexit by staying in single market & keeping FOM. But Labour leavers wd surely feel betrayed. Or they’re back to same choice facing govt now; EU saying you end FOM, you lose single market benefits. Now labour remainers hate it.

Labour case for not having a proper People’s Vote (ie wd kill them in Leave seats & cost election) is cynical but convincing right up to the bit where post-election they magically get a deal unavailable to Tory govt that everyone likes so it’s all fine

i think uphill work for Tories to win now but could be done by learning lessons from last time. "snap election for internal party reasons, on manifesto cobbled together at last minute, after not delivering on early promises" is so not learning lessons tho

this is genius political dissembling from Corbyn, because as things stand members at conference won’t get a binary choice on a second referendum, they’ll get a heavily fudged Brexit composite motion pic.twitter.com/2ISppC3Cos

could only assume the thinking is pre-empt a no conf vote somehow by calling an election? But bloody difficult to win an election if people know that's why you did it

suspect we're entering the phase where damage is done whatever happens. It's so close, some businesses will surely have to start activating contingency plans even if doesn't end up being worst case scenario

i do think the summit was badly handled; unnecessarily humiliating. But to be fair UK govt has done a fair bit to humiliate itself over the last 18 months or so

yes, but it's unusual to have a news conference just to announce that you're angry.
