Anything which dignifies Corbyn is an act of treachery against your fellow citizens, I'm afraid.

His half-hearted campaign certainly helped the Leave cause, yes, and he led his party to vote to activate article 50. Of course, I regret that he betrayed his genuine opposition to the EU, which he did to save his leadership. And yes, Labour is predominantly pro-EU, but so were the Conservatives. We vote for MPs though, and they will ultimately vote on Brexit. I have considered voting Conservative, but that would risk allowing the Lib Dem in. I expect the Tories to win, and probably want them to tbh, but my vote must count to keep the anti-democrat out of my constituency, which will never be Tory.
Oh not at all, I'd much rather have you as PM than Corbyn, Ash.
What I find intriguing in this whole mess is the amount of indignation and shock that went along with the Brexit and Trump votes when it seems clear to me (and always did) that those votes didn't endanger our way of life nearly as much as a Corbyn election win would. I ad lunch with someone the other day who is clearly a very intelligent man and yet he was planning on voting Labour for no reason other than 'I won't vote Tory and there are no other options'.
Quite astonishing is the British voting public, I think.
I understand the dynamics, of course. And voting Tory in Islington is largely pointless, I agree. However, I simply couldn't ever bring myself to vote for a man who has espoused the causes and willingly made the associations Corbyn has.
Simply put: I sincerely believe him to be a traitor to this country.
Voting in this country is still very tribal, to be fair. I don't think I could ever bring myself to vote Labour, but equally, if there were a right-wing equivalent of Corbyn in charge of the tories, I wouldn't vote for them. How otherwise decent Labour voters can hold their noses and vote for Corbyn I simply cannot understand.
