I think this is utter nonsense sorry. The brexit vote was anti establishment so having an establishment leader of Labour campaigning alongside the PM who was in the middle of enacting brutal austerity at the same time would've made zero difference, not least swinging over 1 million votes the other way ffs

The blame lies solely with Cameron/the tories

Typical Tory, arrogantly thought the remain vote was going to piss it without any thought given to what next if leave won.
 
These are the people that have caused all this mess. Practically any other labour leader would have got behind the remain campaign and probably that would have been enough to swing it.

This is just abject wrongness.

”Any other” Labour leader would probably have generated more Labour leave voters by appearing on the same stage as Cameron, Osborne and the like. Corbyn at least came up with an argument for remain that he and Labour could live with, which reminded people how important EU migrants are and which didn’t pretend that everything was tickety-boo.

If you want to blame any Labour figures for the referendum, you’d be better off looking at the people who first called for and promised one years earlier, who spent ages talking about the “immigration problem” (including during the bloody referendum campaign) and who kept chirping at their leader whilst he was trying to help them out of the mess they made.
 
Even admitted themselves they didnt plan for losing even though it was one of only two options incredible, hence Cameron resigning the next day ''I've sh*t on the floor now you clean it up''

or as the French General Kleber said (about Napoleon abandoning his own army in Egypt) “He has left us with his trousers full of sh*t”.
