Triumphant Jeremy Corbyn’s won as he helps kamikaze Theresa May out of Downing Street.
Suddenly he appears Labour’s Prime Minister-in-waiting and her a former Prime Minister, heading for a humiliating personal Mexit.
Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks when Corbyn learned from the backlash over refusing an earlier offer of Brexit talks then peevishly walking out of a meeting.
Nobody I’ve spoken to in Labour or the Conservatives seriously expects their Brexit talks to magic an elusive answer.
Desperate May justifying Corbyn’s invitation to revolting Tories, apologising for running out of options, is his victory.
Begging the veteran Left-winger to sort out Brexit legitimises a decent politician the Tories can never again credibly besmirch as unfit for Government.
Stupid lies that Corbyn’s a Marxist, are hopelessly marooned in the 1980s when Britain’s nudging the 2020s.
Winning power’s never been closer when warring Conservatives are collapsing, Brexit’s postponed or cancelled and a general election increasingly smells like a probability rather than a mere possibility.
The weeks and months ahead will be fraught too for Labour, particularly divisions over a fresh referendum.
Yet the election of pro-European MP Ruth Jones in a Newport West that backed Brexit in 2016 is another sign where public opinion’s heading.
Brextremists deceitfully pretending most people yearn for the disastrous hardline no-deal calamity Parliament’s wisely blocking means the most likely outcome of Wednesday’s Euro summit is Donald Tusk’s year-long flextension.
European elections in the UK on May 23 are feared both by Labour and the Cons when UKIP and Nigel Farage’s new plaything party will be dirty.
I say bring them on, plus the Tory leadership contest, fresh referendum and general election.
Labour’s fairness programme for a £10 minimum wage, revived services and public ownership will be the brightest star in the next election.
This is Corbyn’s major chance. Banging the drum for Britain as a European power would be the clincher.
