Rolling back the function of the state is classic Tory policy. Austerity is just a mechanism to justify it.
What's unreasonable is:

1. The public has already voted but as it doesn't give the answer some wanted they want a pointless re-run of it.

2. Corbyn is promising a choice between a new deal which keeps us in the Customs Union or remain. Both are remain options. You can't be both in the customs union and be able to forge new trade deals, and that completely takes away the advantage of leaving the EU.

As for your final comment, austerity was necessary to avoid the country going bankrupt. There is nowt wrong with rolling back the state so that it doesn't take over the whole economy. It's our hard earned money that pays for the state sector, remember.
