Why Is Labour Getting The Blame/plaudits For The Vote To Leave?

[ToraToraTora]

I feel a bit sorry for Jezza, how was he supposed to get tut north tut vote remain? The grass roots nationwide were sick to death of the EU regardless of political hue. The Limp dum leader more or less "blamed" Jezza directly on the night. Just shows how far out of touch the political luvvies are.

You've hit the nail on the head there TTT !!

I guess in part because Corbyn was supposed to be in touch with the grassroots. He certainly didn't win with the Parliamentary Labour Party's support...

The loss for Remain on Thursday is about far more than Corbyn, for sure.

Politics is strange.

Corbyn is not a true remainer, he has always been anti-EU.
But Labour Party Official Policy was to Remain.
It turns out Labour's heartland agreed with Corbyn and not with Labour MPs.

Instead of learning the lesson, and listening to their core voters, Labour's elite are instead blaming their leader for not doing enough. They are headed for oblivion.

It is years of Labour Mp's who did nothing who are to blame.

TTT, if you have to extract the urine from our northern dialect, please do it correctly. T'north, and t'vote, not tut. Tut tut tut.

It's only a matter of time before someone blames Corbyn for the fall of Singapore in the 1940s or the disastrous floods on the east coast in 1953!

I blame him for Harold not getting married.

I'm not sure that Corbyn is getting the blame, or at least not all of it. Dave put himself very prominently in the STAY camp, along with his Chancellor, the Invisible Man.

good point mikey, Gideon seems to have disappeared!

Has anybody checked that he has taken in the milk on the doorstep ?
