For months, centrists have been claiming that Corbyn is actually pro-Leave, and that he would never vote for a 2nd referendum. Tonight he did. He even instructed the PLP to vote for a 2nd referendum too. And yet...it did not pass. Will centrists now stop blaming JC?

I still cannot wrap my head around the fact that Israel has murdered 10,000 civilians in one month, and yet retains the full unambiguous support of the UK, EU and USA. Ten thousand people. Dead. Massacred by one of Britain's allies. And our leaders say nothing.

As Britain leaves the EU, let's not forget that if the Lib Dems had set aside their petty hatred of Corbyn for 5 minutes in 2019, Labour could have formed a caretaker government and held a 2nd referendum. The Lib Dems blocked that. If anyone is to blame, it's the Liberals.
