1) So...
Corbyn was facing a #Brexit crisis -whipping MPs on EEA amendment would expose him once & for all as a Leaver

So his current plan is to create a smokescreen - abstain on EEA amendment to guarantee its failure
then submit a similar one which is guaranteed to fail as well
2) Corbyn kills the chance to stay in EEA via abstention, then promotes a similar (but deliberately vague) amendment - who's purpose is *not* to succeed, but to publicly fail in order to provide fake "soft #Brexit" optics to Labour Remainers

"We tried to stay in SM but...."
3) Problem solved. Very public abstention on EEA kills SM, for benefit of Corbyn's beliefs and Labour leavers

Very public failure on "internal market" amendment for benefit of Labour Remainer wishful thinkers

Not sure I've ever seen anything more cynical
4) Would you really want this man in charge of the country? Straightforward politics?
