to be fair to him, he’s always supported Brexit, and hasn’t changed tack like May and BoJo. 

Always supported Brexit Lindsey - really

Why did he vote Remain then. ?

Corbyn has been consistently eurosceptic ever since he voted against us joining in 1975;  his voting record shows he was against the Maastricht Agreement, and in 2017 spoke against remaining in the Single Market.
I am at a loss, frankly, why he voted Remain, unless it was to appease his constituency party.
This is the one thing on which our views differ.  I believe he is still at heart a Brexiteer.
On the other hand, I disagree with most Conservative policies, which have seen the very rich get very much richer, and the poor and the middle classes get considerably poorer.

Well all those expecting a second referendum should realise that the government would need to introduce new legislation to be voted on by parliament.

No government wanting to remain in power would do such a thing.

Turkeys don’t vote for Xmas as far as I know.

As for Corbyn - he will say anything to get votes from anyone. The splinters on his arse must surely be hurting by now?

Stoop, you surely meant May not Corbyn  in that sentence! Don't let your bias against Corbyn cloud your posts which are sometimes amusing and informative.

I must admit I always thought that was the first thing any new MP learnt!

If ANY MP was to tell me it's raining I would look outside and check for myself.

And there is no bias against May ?

I’m really biased against May, as are a lot of her ministers and numerous ex ministers, and the right wing press, who think she’s useless.

Look at the numbers who go to see her speak, and compare them with Corbyn’s huge crowds;  it would seem she’s not popular with CP members either, whose numbers have decreased rapidly of late - down to 124,000 members, a thousand less than the SNP.

Bribing the DUP to support her did not receive critical acclaim either.

I think 'oh Jeremy Corbyn' is on his last legs. The party is losing not only MP's but also thousands of members due to his refusal to sort out the anti semites and his refusal to have a clear strategy on Brexit.

Gone by the time the next election comes.
