1) Numerous Lexit commentators saying "Remain option will kill Labour"
*This* Brexit is a Tory program, just as austerity was. And austerity got a big vote in 2010 & an even bigger one in 2015.
If it's the wrong policy it should be opposed, even if it's "popular"

2) this Labour movement has criticised the last for being Tory-lite on austerity. Fair enough.
But how then can Labour be Tory-lite on #Brexit, which will also hit their voters as austerity did?
Because it won one dodgy vote?

3) "we can't fight austerity/repeal of gay marriage/the return of hanging/windrush deportations because they're popular in some key seats"?
The idea is ludicrous, so why is fighting for what you believe on #Brexit different?

4) if you oppose #Brexit then oppose it. If voters want it, persuade them it's a Tory stitch up & a rich man's gameplaying
Or be the Tory-lite of 2019, with Brexit taking the place of austerity
