That’s easy.
Brexit is a shambles. A Conservative Party spat now playing out as perhaps the greatest division of the British public of our times.
The deal proposed by the Prime Minister satisfies no-one. Mr Corbyn will suggest the Government resign, and make way for negotiations led by the Labour Party. The Prime Minister will refuse. Mr Corbyn will point out she has no Parliamentary mandate for her deal. The Prime Minister will stand firm.
When the deal is voted down Mr Corbyn will stress that with no opportunity to force a general election, Article 50 must be extended, Britain did not vote for a disorderly exit from the European Union. The Prime Minister will reluctantly concede either a) People’s Vote or b) a general election.
Corbyn gets to say he would have respected the 2016 result except the preparations (or lack of) gave him no choice. Britain for the many, not the few, and he couldn’t accept no deal which made us poorer after years of austerity.
