Spot on Larry .

Others factors played a small part bit it was pretty much brexit. I don't particularly want a hard brexit ( there won't be one anyway) but I would have voted labour, libdem or any party who I thought would carry out the 2016 referendum and obviously the labour leave voting heartlands thought the same. I quite like Corbyn but everyone knows he was railroaded into sitting on the fence as pretty much every vote until he became leader he voted against the EU. Didn't do him any favours in the end did it
