Abstract

Jeremy Corbyn’s recent speech purported to set out how Labour would approach the ongoing Brexit negotiations. The speech appears to have had three major aims. Firstly, it sought to criticise the incumbent government. Additionally, Corbyn attempted to present Labour as an alternative “government in waiting” with its own Brexit agenda and policies. Finally, it sought to drive a wedge between different factions of the governing Conservative party.
