Lexit is a symptom of brainworms.
Yep. If you still support Brexit or believe the result still deserves unquestionable respect in the face of every anti-democratic, far-right action of the last three years then you are nothing short of complicit in it, no matter the blinkered long term intentions.
Labour's position right now after everything we've seen makes them complicit in the ills Brexit has already unleashed on to the country. The apparent belief that a Labour government will suck all the white imperialist rhetoric out of the Tory Brexit plans and carry out a nice socialist Lexit is either dangerous foolishness or the kind of calculated callousness in allowing minorities and the vulnerable to be thrown under the bus that we would expect of cowardly centrists.
If Labour can't explicitly become the party of Remain, especially with this new no deal government, when even those at the top can recognise the need to do so then they are strawberry floated. Politically and morally strawberry floated.
