In response to: We Invite Guildford Labour to Back Up Pro-EU Words With Action

The point here is that the Liberal Democrats claim that their MPs would give the public the final say over Brexit – while also claiming that a Lib Dem government will scrap it. A logical fallacy if ever there was one.

The assertion that Labour will not give the public a final say on the matter is, unfortunately, a bald-faced lie. Labour’s position on Brexit has been tortuous, confused and downright frustrating – but the policy is now set and is explicitly designed to get any negotiated deal signed-off by the public, through a referendum.

So, the complete opposite of what we’re all seeing on these leaflets. Fake news indeed.
