  Labour's prolonged, painful and pitiful equivocation on the Party's position on the EU is down to Corbyn's failure to construct and popularise an argument for a Left alternative for the UK outside the EU. It's not as though he hasn't had enough time; he's been a eurosceptic all his political life. But there are two reasons why he hasn't done so: first, he's hamstrung by the Remain sentiments of the new urban metropolitan 'support' that brought him the Leadership; second, and more importantly, he doesn't have the historical, philosophical, political, rhetorical and oratorical skills to do it. As a result he's allowed the Right to claim Brexit as its own, and as good as said 'thanks for the memory' to Labour-supporting Leave voters, who'll either put their future crosses in some nutter's box or disenfranchise themselves in despair.
