The Guardian, in what is admittedly a slow week for newspapers, has had to publicise and support Jeremy Corbyn! He gave them an exclusive interview. What a scoop! It got a front-page splash as if it were world news. Why? Because a small section of the interview contained a criticism of May over so far denying Parliament much more of a role in Brexit, summarised in a medium-to-poor soundbite about Henry VIII, AND offered the Remainers hope again.
Parliament may well have voted to trigger the Leave process, but Jeremy thinks that they will still get to vote on the final plan in 2019:
“It [a final Brexit deal] would have to come to parliament. She cannot
hide behind Henry VIII and the divine rights of the power of kings on
this one,” he said.
This blog uses various techniques to analyse the ideological narratives about Brexit in Remainer press stories
