The party used to support working people but are now too focused on the unemployed and unemployable.
The political classes within the Labour party are blaming the Brexit on Corbyn not persuading his voters to say NO. I don't believe anything Corbyn could have said would have changed the mind of working people in traditional labour areas from voting Brexit.
