No. You're being a doughnut.
They ain't supporting shit. For literally years they've been saying that the British public is far too stupid to have any say on something so very important and that they know best and we should jolly well do as we're told. Their line has consistently been that the EU is marvellous and anyone that says otherwise is a swivel eyed loon and a racist. Now that people are going to have their say whether Labour like it or not, they've decided that it's OK for people to have their say. As long as they say the right thing. Having just lost a general election in some style, even they know that suggesting people shouldn't be allowed to vote is not the best idea. Anyway, anti-EU sentiment is massively tied up with the Labour attitude I described in my second sentence. There's no way we'll get a referendum result that says out. The out lobby will be lucky to get 35% or more.
