Labour must say it out loud: Brexit needs to be reversed

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

62% : Indeed, said the prime minister's former best friend, it was perhaps "perfectly reasonable to say Brexit was a mistake".
58% : Alas, as that astute observer Denis MacShane - a former Labour minister for Europe - recently pointed out, "Johnson needs a permanent war with the EU to prove that the Battle of Brexit is not over".
57% : One begins to wonder whether Cummings now thinks that, on top of all the other well-publicised prime ministerial gaffes, the chaos of Brexit may contribute to Johnson's downfall - a significant signpost being the way "freedom day" on 19 July swiftly turned into fiasco day in the same week that the Northern Ireland crisis became wholly manifest.
56% : Above all, says MacShane - who probably coined the term Brexit and certainly forecast the result of the referendum - Johnson "wants the main opposition, Labour, to say nothing about Brexit".
56% : But the time has assuredly come, and those words of our friend Dick Leonard's widow - "he did not want to die until Brexit was reversed" - will, I hope, stiffen Starmer's resolve.
49% : 'He did not want to die until Brexit was reversed." These words were spoken at the funeral last week of my dear friend and former Observer colleague Dick Leonard.
48% : In the 2016 edition of The Routledge Guide to the European Union, the authors - Dick and another EU expert, Robert Taylor - observed of the impending UK referendum: "Not everybody would accept that it would be a 'win-win' situation for both Britain and the EU if voters choose to remain, but it will assuredly be a lose-lose one if they decide to quit."
43% : But Cummings - almost indicating that in delivering Brexit for Johnson he was merely acting in the capacity of a hired mercenary - also told us that anyone convinced that Brexit was a good thing must "have a screw loose".
36% : "Is Brexit a good idea?
