I actually think he will be an asset to the Brexit Campaign simply because his heart isn't in what he's saying. The bit that got me was the statement "I believe Britain would be better off in a 'reformed EU'." Yes, he said it but the tone of his voice convinced me he didn't believe it. People are switching to Out after his speech according to news interviews afterwards. Someone should tell we ain't gonna get a 'reformed EU'. Thatcher, Blair, Brown and Cameron couldn't do it so why would we believe Corbyn can do it?

Have to agree, he's certainly not pro-Europe, but the majority of his party is, so he's had to toe the line. I think his unenthusiastic tone was deliberate ! He made a point yesterday of not taking back any of the anti-EU comments he's made in the past.
The latest polling, if you believe it, is showing a slight lead for Brexit (45% leave , 42% remain) There's a difference between sexes; Men seem to be in favour of Brexit, and women remaining. There are alot of undecided females though (what's new
). I suspect most of these will vote for no change when it comes to it.
