Whether we stay or leave, ultimately we should be doing our utmost to ensure people don't lose jobs, livelihoods. This has to be a bigger priority than Brexit. Sadly there are too many pricks out there who are happy for people to lose their jobs if it means Brexit being delivered.
As for Labour delaying Brexit, on March 12th, a majority of 149 voted no to Theresa May's deal. 75 Tory MPs voted against May, presumably most of them no-deal seekers. Had they backed their leader, we would now be out of the EU. If a party has a majority in Government yet fails to deliver because around a quarter of its MPs don't support a particular bill, they can hardly blame anyone else.
