When did Labour run on reversing Brexit?

Brexit has been a disaster so I would argue Labour were correct. 

This post strike. From The Guardian.

“The strikes have already added £100m to Royal Mail’s losses so far this year. In a materially loss-making company, with every additional day of strike action we are facing the difficult choice of whether we spend our money on pay and protecting jobs, or on the cost of strikes.”

The UK faces a winter of discontent as Royal Mail workers will be joined by university lecturers and teachers, who are also to go on strike on Thursday over pay, pensions and contracts.“

Back to the 70’s.

Saves us sending cards out this year.

When did Labour ever say they'd reverse Brexit though? Starmer certainly hasn't, and Corbyn was a Brexiter...

Yes they sat on the fence for that whole Corbyn period and since Starmer has been leader they have not been proposing to reverse it but make it work better.

Mounts seems to think they ran the last General Election on a "reverse Brexit" footing, and that's why they lost...

How does a strike cost the post office money? People still send the same number of letters or parcels making the post office the same income. Its then just a matter of how long it takes to collect, sort and distribute. Infrastructure costs stay the same whether open or closed. 

Folk on strike don't get paid so that's a saving. 

Where is a strike costing money? 

I think the cost is paying overtime, to people who have been striking.

Do folk still send cards?

They lost because Corbyn was leader and red wall voters love three word slogans. I think your  video of brexit voters the other day shows why.  Many of them cannot put more than three words together “ Joris Bohnson leave”

Yeah it totally is a mess.

However, in a completely selfish way Thameslink is bloody fantastic and I can get a train every 15 minutes from our house in Zone 4, wizz around London all day to whatever zone and never pay more than a 11 quid. Fab.

Thameslink connects Kings Cross to Charlton football does nt it ?

Folk who have maybe been willing to use the post office to deliver a item by a certain date, but that can't be guaranteed if there's a strike so they choose other methods

one thing could be that instead of using an RM paid delivery service to post something important, someone will instead choose to use a 3rd party courier or similar

And within six months, we will put that deal to a public vote alongside the option to remain.

Which was clearly not a commitment to "reverse Brexit", as you earlier portrayed it...

Don't really know - never go out that way unless I'm driving to Ikea and Gallions Reach (which to be fair I have to do this weekend)

But it does go from ours to Kings Cross
