^^ Ima pobunu najvećim delom što je tako vodio kampanju kako je vodio - odgovarao je na druga pitanja od onih koja su na tiketu. A takvo vođenje kampanje je odvelo (dodatne) milione u naručje UKIPa.
Laburisti, konze i lib-demovi su zajednički držali Stronger IN kampanju, delili poslove u štabu itd. Samo to što je insistirao na premisi da je nešto "Kameronova platforma" a nije uložio trud da pojača rad zajedničke ekipe koju je prethodno odobrio kako bi rekao "ne, to nije Kameronova nego zajednička platforma" je dovoljno samo po sebi da pokaže da ga je ili bolelo uvo ili je bio zainteresovan da sprovodi strogo svoju agendu, bugger the consequences. Bio je taman srećan da može da se separatiše.
Na ovom pitanju je Kameron bio na njegovoj strani, svidelo se to njemu ili ne, a činjenica da je uložio napor da predstavi da to nije tako je koštala IN kampanju.

Senior Labour MPs are calling on Jeremy Corbyn to “step up his efforts” in the campaign to keep the UK in the European Union amid mounting concern in the party that he is failing to argue the case with sufficient passion.
The group, led by Chris Leslie, the former shadow chancellor, serve a warning that if the Brexit camp wins the referendum on 23 June, Corbyn will be held partly responsible as people on the losing side will ask whether the party leaders “did enough to pull their weight”.
Writing in the Observer, Leslie and the former culture secretary, Ben Bradshaw, along with the former frontbench spokeswoman on Europe, Emma Reynolds, and Labour MP Adrian Bailey, say Corbyn needs to campaign “relentlessly for our EU membership with passion and without equivocation” from now until the vote takes place.

Jeremy Corbyn has taken aim at his own side in the EU referendum campaign by claiming that Treasury forecasts about the dire consequences of a vote to leave were “histrionic” hype and “myth-making”.
...
On Thursday he stunned some of his own colleagues with what one described as “deliberate sabotage” of the campaign to stay in the union.
Attacking both sides for scaremongering, Mr Corbyn said there had been too many “prophesies of doom” surrounding the imminent vote. “Just over a week ago, George Osborne claimed that the British economy would enter a year-long recession if we voted to leave,” he said. “This is the same George Osborne who predicted his austerity policies would close the deficit by 2015. That is now scheduled for 2021.”
Mr Osborne, the chancellor, had also wrongly predicted a “march of the makers” only to oversee a stagnation of the manufacturing sector, he added.
Mr Corbyn’s speech on Thursday morning was supposed to mark his return to the pro-EU fray after a holiday and only a handful of prominent interventions during the debate. A recent leaked memo from the pro-EU campaign suggested that just half of Labour voters realised their party officially backed the “In” side.
Yet Mr Corbyn’s speech in support of the bloc was laced with criticism of its shortfalls and an attack on the proposed US-EU trade deal known as TTIP. “None of us are satisfied with the EU as it is,” he said.

Jeremy Corbyn’s close allies undermined and even “sabotaged” Labour’s campaign to keep the UK in the European Union, party sources have claimed.
A series of documents passed to HuffPostUK allege that the leader’s inner circle, as well as Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell, were agnostic at best and hostile at worst to the pro-EU campaign in the referendum.
Within hours of the vote, Labour MPs were openly blaming Corbyn for the huge Brexit vote in the party’s heartlands, and a motion of no confidence in his leadership is set to be voted on next week.
Now Remain campaigners say that pro-EU lines in Corbyn speeches were cut, his diary was scheduled to avoid Labour In events and any attempts to work with Tony Blair, Peter Mandelson and Gordon Brown were overruled.
Furious In campaigners lashed out, claiming that the party leaders’ diary was deliberately light on pro-EU events and that he refused to campaign actively until the very final stages of the Brexit debate.
Key decisions on planning and messaging were delayed or changed, making it impossible for Labour’s official In campaign to function smoothly, it is alleged.
...
Communications and Strategy Director Seumas Milne had written as recently as last July that “many progressive people in Britain, previously attracted to what seemed its cooperative internationalism, are moving towards voting no in the planned in-out referendum in the face of its brutal authoritarianism towards Greece.”
In an interview with Croydon Radio in 2015, Andrew Fisher - now Corbyn’s policy director - said he was “agnostic” about the EU given some directives which could halt denationalisation of some public services.
James Meadway, a part-time economic adviser to McDonnell, had written in the Counterfire website last year that “In our own referendum, on British membership of the EU, the left must vote No.”
Senior party sources claim that the leader’s office refused to focus on or plan for the EU referendum until after the May local elections, and refused to allow Corbyn to welcome Cameron’s renegotiation deal in any way in February.
Corbyn was encouraged by staff to avoid participating in LabourIN events, TV debates or any ‘StrongerIn’ events. Instead of working on a common position, an “alternative narrative” was developed in which Corbyn would criticise the EU’s weaknesses and call for reform.
The phrase ‘That’s why I am campaigning to remain in the EU’ was deleted from numerous leader speeches and interventions in the long and short campaigns outside of the LabourIN campaign, despite calls from other parts of the Party to him to get involved.

26 June 2016
And documents passed to the BBC suggest Jeremy Corbyn's office sought to delay and water down the Labour Remain campaign. Sources suggest that they are evidence of "deliberate sabotage".
One email from the leader's office suggests that Mr Corbyn's director of strategy and communications, Seumas Milne, was behind Mr Corbyn's reluctance to take a prominent role in Labour's campaign to keep the UK in the EU. One email, discussing one of the leader's speeches, said it was because of the "hand of Seumas. If he can't kill it, he will water it down so much to hope nobody notices it".
A series of messages dating back to December seen by the BBC shows correspondence between the party leader's office, the Labour Remain campaign and Labour HQ, discussing the European campaign. It shows how a sentence talking about immigration was removed on one occasion and how Mr Milne refused to sign off a letter signed by 200 MPs after it had already been approved.
The documents show concern in Labour HQ and the Labour Remain campaign about Mr Corbyn's commitment to the campaign - one email says: "What is going on here?" Another email from Labour Remain sources to the leader's office complains "there is no EU content here - we agreed to have Europe content in it". Sources say they show the leader's office was reluctant to give full support to the EU campaign and how difficult it was to get Mr Corbyn to take a prominent role.
