I think it's very clever of the Tories at the moment to be able to manipulate the media and blame Jeremy Corbyn for the failure of Brexit in the HOC.
It's The Emperors' New Clothes. The real reason Brexit hasn't happened is that May and Johnson couldn't command the full support of their own party. If they had, there wouldn't be any delays. It would have been done long ago, and anything that Corbyn said or did, wouldn't have mattered. It'd be done. So, the Tories blame Corbyn instead of the real culprits - their own rebel MPs'. Yesterday, on BBC Breakfast, if Sajid Javid mentioned Corbyn once he must have mentioned him a hundred times. The Tories are running scared of Jeremy Corbyn and all this blame game is doing is trying to gain an advantage ahead of a General Election.
Everyone can see that the Tories have shot themselves in the foot with all the votes in the Commons, but in the style of The Emperors New Clothes, it's Jeremy Corbyn. Innit?

Some of the votes were so close (a majority of 1, in one vote) that if the PM had the support of her own MP's, it would be done and dusted now. Me old China! And you know it. Me old China!
