In the news today, Keir Starmer says that Labour will hold up the Reform Act, which (I think) means that much EU legislation would be rubber stamped and passed into our legislation.
As you can probably gather, I'm happy to be corrected on this, but isn't this really bad.
Don't remainers want to keep EU legislation and this is a way of doing that?
Isn't the Act a good way of disposing of the small stuff so that negotiators can concentrate on the major issues?
Isn't it inappropriate for a party that voted for Article 50 to try and fuck up the brexit process this way (which it will do)?
They way I see it, Starmer is trying to build up a political reputation for himself. He knows that Corbyn and McDonnell's indifference to the Referendum is a blot on the Labour Party. He doesn't care that this will damage negotiations.
I'm aware that I might not be right and I'm sure others will disagree with me, but that's the feeling I have.
