No leader can offer any transformation
IF Labour’s leadership campaign has shown anything, it is the extent to which the Labour Party is a broken, squabbling mess, devoid of anything to say to the working class who formed it.
In its simplest form, the party needs something to say and someone to say it. If this so obvious, why can’t those who would be king see the problem. The tragedy is there is no obvious, potential leader who can offer the slightest hope of some kind of transformation in Labour fortunes.
The endless prevarications, evasions, shifting of position and downright lies. Over when, where, if and in what circumstances Labour might listen to the working man and woman is certain, to keep the Tories in government in London for another decade. Twenty years of Conservative government. All courtesy of Labour.
Of the leadership contenders, all six before the cull started, who if any, stands out, who listens to what the public have to say?
The leadership contenders have the working class in their sights, each striving to be more working class than the working class.
Where they are failing is the firing squad has formed a circle and Unite has been told when to shout ‘fire’. Graham Simmonds

Courts of Justice of the EU and those directives part of EU Law they come from will become like international law, meaning the UK transpositions will need to be interpreted as the EU intended them to be.
Brexit does not mean Brexit and getting Brexit done is not as simple as becoming a third country like the UK now is.
