Papers review last night seemed to me to include a statement that is just not so. Shaun Ley suggested Corbyn is critical of EU policy on worker rights and environment. Maybe he could suggest changes but the main thing is that Corbyn spoke during the referendum pro Remain based on these concerns. So I recorded this bit for review and comment.
Compare recent statement in Commons, Daily Mail version.
Four minutes in defends EU position on worker rights. This bit has not been widely reported, not at all in print Guardian that I can find.
See previous posts in this blog for what Corbyn said and how reported. the "blame Corbyn" phase was so strong that the actual referendum was forgotten. Not airbrushed out, I have to conclude most BBC reporters have genuinely forgotten.
Comment welcome. Other links? bloggers cannot expect interviews but some sort of retrospective may turn up.
My guess is that most of Westminster / print and TV are in one world , with another outside it until / unless there is an election or something. These gaps in memory are part of it.
