The Labour leader claims EU rules would stymie his efforts to regenerate the economy. But his arguments make no sense.

Why does the newspaper continue to publish Larry Elliot’s Corbynite nonsense on the EU?

I'm joined by two of my Liverpool mates, Andrew "AB" Abrahamson and Mark "Bean" Sabino. They're not Anti-Brexit activists, trade experts or politicians; they're fairly typical left-leaning bods just getting by. So I got in a round and asked them: what is this "Lexit" (people on the left advocating the horrifically damaging Tory policy of leaving the EU) all about?

So let me get this straight: a Brexit driven by a hard right-wing Tory government is just what we need to protect workers’ rights, health and safety and the environment?

What happens in the next three months, perhaps even the next couple of weeks, is going to shape the fate of the country for decades. If Brexit goes ahead, in any form, it will enact a profound misreading of the nature of the contemporary political and economic world and represent an unprecedented failure of British statecraft.

Now in the most comprehensive demolition of Lexit ever produced, a group of elected Labour politicians, highly respected trade union leaders and environmentalists have told fans of Lexit that everything they have been told is factually wrong.

Austerity in the UK has been a political choice, made by this Tory Government, and has nothing to do with the EU or single market rules. EU rules impose no restriction whatsoever on the level of public spending

Lexiteers, happily aped by Nigel Farage, claim that EU rules prevent nationalisation. This is simply wrong, as any reading of the law would reveal.
