Jeremy Corbyn is the opponents of the EU of the Swedish vänsterpartimodell, this is unusual in the Uk: a country where the EU-criticism tends to come from the right.
Jeremy Corbyns problem, however, is that he leads a parliamentary Labour party where most of the members are happy, the EU-enthusiasts. This is very much the traditional vänsterpositionen in the Uk: the EU is considered a guarantee for a stronger regulated labour market and tougher environmental and consumer protection than what Britain would otherwise have had.
fragmented. Even so detest the young inhabitants of the major conurbations Brexit, while many traditional arbetarklassväljare voted for. And it is why Jeremy Corbyn has spent the last two years, an impressive political balancing act. The Labour party has, under his direction managed to be for and against Brexit at the same time.

This means however, that the two leaders actually reach each other in the middle. Had it just been up to them, they had enough fairly quickly found a Brexitkompromiss. The uk had left the EU but remained in the EU customs union. It had left the EU common market: both Jeremy Corbyn and Theresa May look to the free movement of people within the EU as a problem, so in the otherwise sensitive issue of immigration is no conflict.
