The direction the Prime Minister is taking is “both reckless and damaging”
If the Prime Minister is to unite the country, she must not just listen the hard line Tory ideologues on her won beaches, claimed Corbyn The head of UK opposition and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said Prime Minister Theresa May’s plans for Brexit were potentially “reckless and damaging”.
Responding to the Prime Minister’s statement in the Commons Mr. Corbyn said: “If the Prime Minister is to unite the country as she says she aims to do, the Government needs to listen, consult and represent the whole country, not just the hard line Tory ideologues on her own benches.”
He added: “The direction the Prime Minister is threatening to take this country in is both reckless and damaging.
“Labour will not give this Government a free hand to use Brexit to attack rights, protections and cut services.”

Read all commentsTheres absolutely no doubt that some old fogies voted for Brexit and I expect a lot voted to remain too. Hestletine, Major and BLiar, etc are prime examples. But to try and brand everyone who voted to leave the EU and hang ageist and racist labels on them like this is rather silly and insulting. In the Canaries and Spain I have heard immigration to the UK as a major reason that people left the UK, often originating from Northern sink towns. Its not racist to move from where you gradually begin to feel uncomfortable as the odd one out to go somewhere affordable abroad among like minded people where you feel at home. I feel sorry for these people as they are now poorer and probably trapped with no way back. Don't make yourself look more stupid with a pointless online vendetta that bores everyone silly. Learn to step back.

Mar 30th, 2017 - 08:24 am +2It WAS the “ Common Market ” we joined not a superstate that tells us what we ought to do. Democracy is to represent the majority and how do you know that the Labour voters overwhelmingly voted to remain .As an old white man I can remember what it was before the “ Common Market ” and we did exceedingly well.
