There is no Remain majority in Parliament. I don't know why you think there is, that is factually incorrect.

The Conservative policy is leave. The Labour conference just voted for leave (that is binding on the Executive, that will be their policy in the GE). Yes buddy, I am spreading "disinformation".

> There was earlier another boost for Mr Corbyn, as members backed his Brexit strategy to remain neutral on a second referendum until after a general election.

> Mr Corbyn wants to strike a new deal with Brussels within three months of coming to power and then decide which side to back in an ensuing public vote at that point.

actually you are, unless you'd care to provide a reference for that Labour policy.

My understanding of the Labour position is that they would negotiate a deal with the EU (likely including a custom's union) and then hold a second referendum, in which the government would stay neutral.
