Ignore informality, shaky camera and awkward laughs. This is another trap for Corbyn. Ending free movement is the first thing May says she has in common with Labour. That should go down like a bucket of cold sick. It’s time for Labour to stand behind its own principles.
May’s video also suggests she might buckle on customs union. She doesn’t say anything about ‘taking back control of our money, borders and laws’ (is this a first?) or the freedom to negotiate our own trade deals. It’s toxic for Brexiters, toxic for Remainers, toxic for Labour.
In all, whole thing is just maddeningly disingenuous. May had 3 years to work cross-party as she says public wants. Instead she bulldozed through a Brexit determined by her alone, and lost 3 times. Now she wants Corbyn to own the mess - while the 48%, as usual, are totally erased
