"The public's wishes 3 years ago may not be the public's wishes now." I guess that's true, since how else would the party of government change. The snag is, how would a putative 2nd Referendum, that included a Remain option, be somehow more "legitimate" and "this time for real" than the first, and pre-empt a 3rd? No-one I know has changed their mind, although I don't know any non-voters (who would now vote).
"...failure to construct and popularise an argument for a Left alternative for the UK outside the EU." Quite; I would add 'and explain'. I don't mean to suggest that people were not sufficiently well-informed to give a reasoned vote in the 2016 Referendum, but to my mind there is still a lot of unhelpful tabloid inexactitude around and Labour's hitherto Customs Union policy is just more of the same. Would Starmer please explain the advantages of a CU over an FTA, because I'm surely not seeing them.
