He wants us out because he wouldn’t be able to achieve his socialist utopia under EU membership.

Have to agree with that. He's only towing the line because he knows his party and membership are so overwhelmingly pro-EU and that Scotland (potentially key in any GE) comfortably voted remain. Corbyn has attempted a 'sitting on the fence' position as he knows many Labour voters in the North voted Brexit.

His ambiguity has served him quite well so far in trying to keep everyone happy but it has to stop now. He should give his view either way as there has been a complete failure from the opposition to hold the government to account on Brexit. The whole process has been a shambles and a complete failure of leadership from both the main two parties. No wonder we're heading towards a no-deal Brexit.
 
Its going to be interesting when a general election does come to see whether the electorate will be as forgiving as they have been up until now about Corbyn's views and his agenda. It's clear that Corbyn supporters can see no wrong with him (similar to Trump in a way) - but will the electorate as a whole really vote for Corbyn as PM or will we learn some lessons from Trump's election, especially around the bitterness and division that could follow. The divisions of opinion over Brexit could be as nothing compared to what might come.
 
The funny thing is, Corbyn’s supporters label anyone that doesn’t agree with them ‘the far-right’, and yet it is the actual far-right who have been praising him this week.

Who knew the Jeremy Corbyn and Nick Griffin would be such close allies
 
I've praised Margaret Thatcher to various complete strangers this week. Go figure.
 
...and now Frank Field, Labour through and through hounded from the party. Surely this is madness. The vitriol towards him on Twitter from Momementum is astonishing. The best I have seen him labelled is a Tory. What I don’t understand is that many of the far left hooligans seem to hate him because he is a ‘Brexiteer’, and yet their idol, Corbyn, also wants out. Madness. Has the Labour Party been irreversibly ruined forever? I can’t see how it can quickly return to a normal, left of centre party.
 
I thought this would be the wake up call Labour needed.

But reading social media and the hordes of Corbynites, I was wrong.

This should have been a warning sign to them - but instead, the paranoia and denial of Anti Semitism has just intensified.

A once great party reduced to tin foil hats and hate.

Is there any coming back from here?
 
The left of the Labour Party isn't interested in the outcome of Brexit or how we got here (or any other policy for that matter), only the overthrow of the Conservative government by any means - nothing else is of any concern. Asking for any sensible discussion against this backdrop is futile. The only thing it gives us is a window into a socialist labour government that should be a concern to all moderate thinking people. Frank Field isn't being hounded for his anti-brexit views as much as he is for voting with the government on a matter for which he has long campaigned and thus preventing Mrs may from being ousted.
