The Sun Says

Leave voters should never forget the day Corbyn’s cronies chose to betray them by voting against the Brexit Bill

One minute Jeremy Corbyn wants to stay in the single market, the next he's out but in fairness, who can keep up with Labour’s array of conflicting positions?

THERE’S only one conclusion to draw from the gibberish Jeremy Corbyn spouts as his current Brexit stance.

He says whatever half-understood muddle pops into his head. One minute in the single market, the next out.

In fairness, who can keep up with Labour’s array of conflicting positions?

Even before it took place, last night’s key vote told us one thing for certain:

On this crunch decision over the Bill enabling Brexit to happen smoothly, Labour MPs were told to vote AGAINST.

Leave voters should never forget it. Corbyn’s Labour chose to betray them.


Revolting lot

 It'll cost £9billion to give the unions the five per cent rise they're demanding

ANYONE got £9billion spare?

That’s the monster bill for the inflation-busting five per cent rise union militants are demanding with menaces for public sector staff.

We’re not saying frontline workers, just like the even harder-up private sector, aren’t due a hike.

But Britain is still overdrawing by £1billion a week as it is.

Labour couldn’t care less about the economics, of course. They will back nationwide strike action all the way.

Indeed, to Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell, nothing is more arousing than industry and transport shut down by pickets.

It’s his 1970s fantasy made flesh.

We hope the Government has a solution, or is ready to face the unions down.

Winter is coming — and chaos with it.

THE witch-hunts against our soldiers for alleged war “crimes” are an outrage.

They are traumatising veterans, some in their 80s. So we applaud Tory MP Richard Benyon for trying to force the Government to back a ten-year limit on prosecutions against troops.

It would end all probes into the Troubles and most from Iraq and Afghanistan.

It is also vital to raise the evidence threshold. Many recent investigations hinged around grasping Iraqi fantasists egged on by shyster lawyers here. They should never have seen the light of day.

MPs should back Benyon’s Bill.

Any genuine recent cases would still be looked into — but the widespread misery heaped on Our Boys would end.


Sack Adonis

WE once had high hopes for Lord Adonis overseeing the UK’s infrastructure strategy. But Theresa May should sack him.

Once politically independent, he has since retaken the Labour whip — he is now a Corbyn footsoldier.

Adonis spends half his week assessing our post-Brexit needs, the rest fighting to scupper Brexit.

One minute he works with the PM and Chancellor, the next he publicly mocks David Davis.

It can’t go on. The Tories need someone loyal to them and Brexit.
