Still 29 days to go and literally nobody is arguing that Brexit is going to make anything better any more.

Backing a #SecondReferendum won’t mean the ‘end of #Labour in the north and the midlands. Failing to stop a job destroying #Brexit would!

The working class is against Brexit and will vote Remain in a second referendum. We may not get one, because 50+ Labour MPs would prefer a quiet life, but here's why we should fight for the PV… https://t.co/lzAXydsicJ
