Leave? Remain? Or compromise? The muddy waters of Brexit are becoming a little clearer | Analysis by lukemcgee

Jeremy Corbyn, the leader of the official opposition Labour Party, has finally made public his position on the biggest issue facing his party and his country. Having played a central role in the parliamentary attempts to block a no-deal Brexit, Corbyn faced the inevitable question about what he would do next. In a newspaper article published on Wednesday, Corbyn attempted an answer of sorts.

Nigel Farage slams 'pipsqueak' Luxembourg PM 01:41Corbyn also has a problem within his own party. Labour has been engaged in a civil war since the Brexit vote. Most of the lawmakers representing Labour in Parliament backed remain in 2016. However, many of their traditional working-class strongholds, especially in the north of England, voted emphatically to leave. It's this dissonance that led to Labour having a very confusing Brexit policy during the 2017 election.

And the north of England, where many Labour districts voted leave, the Conservative brand is still toxic.

lukemcgee Impressed with the Schroedinger (physics) reference. But you underestimate Corbyn again. His position is honest – there is no really good leave strategy but since a majority voted to leave, they should be free to decide once the deal is clear (which it wasn’t in 2016).
