@MrMonnyPenny thanks for the book recommendation. I don’t think labour were all anti-Brexit. The party was divided and Corbyn was forced to support a second referendum even though he didn’t want to adopt that position. Many of the back benchers who blame Corbyn for everything were the very same people forcing him into an unpopular Brexit position.

Yeah, I just think my vision of brexit is different to Corbyn’s. I see the EU as a barrier to global free trade; Corbyn is more anti-market pro-protectionism. @LukeTheDuke
@MrMonnyPenny But Corbyn will be gone very soon. Will labour always be unpalatable to you, even with a new leader?

@LukeTheDuke yes, because I’ve lost almost all faith in interventionism improving people’s lives in the long term. But don’t think that makes me a fan of the tories.

I think the biggest problems facing us today, that of money and banking, isn’t addressed by any of the major parties.
