    Plenty of corner shops in North London mate, if you're watching that game.

    The Italian side are a goal down, so you've probably changed sides already.

    I don’t like any of them to be honest. Very few anyway.

    Something about him.

    An unnamed cabinet minister has already said that Corbyn will probably stick with it for long enough to allow him to say he tried but the PM wouldn’t compromise.
    And the minister said that because it is what he would do in the same situation.

    More insidious and potentially disastrous.

    Corbyn wants a Customs Union. May has negotiated a Customs Union (but can't admit it). Nightmare scenario - they agree and whip enough MPs to get her deal (with tweaks to the Political Declaration) through.

    Don't be fooled. Corbyn is a Leaver. (Cue someone telling us he said he voted Remain. To which I reply: Actions, not words.)

    That's a pretty stupid game, IMO. Because the number of people who want a compromise Brexit is pretty small. And I think May is desperate enough to meet any demands he asks. So it'll just be seen as Corbyn playing games and jerking the moderate Tories/May around instead of serving the people. And rightly so.

    I think this is happening because Corbyn legit is kind of pro-Brexit. And also legit kind of an asshole. He sees a chance for power and is angling his way in, trying to play both sides.
