He was asked, and I will put it again just In case you missed the half a dozen times he was asked HOW WOULD HE , HE, HE, HE, HE, CAMPAIGN FOR OR AGAINST BREXIT. Not about putting it to the people, but how would HE, HE, HE, HE personally campaign. FOR OR AGAINST.
Jesus, can’t you get it.
He’s going to negotiate the best deal he can, then let the people decide.

How can he comment when he doesn’t know the deal yet?

Well I’ve news for you, no he didn’t. In typical fashion he was evasive and never answered the questions, where does he stand on brexit, will he rule out another Scottish referendum. Johnson won hands down, all corbyn could do is harp on with the nonsensical accusation that the Tory’s would sell out the n.h.s.
Yeah, he did. He said the people will decide Brexit, what does it matter if he'd campaign for it or not? It doesn't and you know it doesn't. Corbyn answered in detail about everything, unlike Johnson who kept bringing it back to Brexit. Oh, and he lied several times. The start of your message sums up your biased view.

Devious b*stard? Claimed by the man who thought a man who lied several times on national tv won the debate hands down? You really are stupid, jesus christ.

Only an idiot would "know exactly where he stands on brexit" without actually knowing exactly what brexit would look like.

Biggsy, I would sooner a man who you claimed lied several times than someone who laid a wreath in honour of the mastermind of the Munich massacre, marched in support of the i.r.a, regards them, hezbullah and hammas as his friends, thinks we should adopt the venezualian model for our economy, and promises ludicrous pre election offers that if implemented would bankrupt the country.

Corbyn won by a country mile. Boris tried as usual to be the bully boy he is and constantly would not shut up when asked politely to by the interviewer.

You believe all of that? You really are stupid. Nothing wrong with showing solidarity with the IRA, even though he didn't.

Not according to the poll

Corbyn never won by a mile, or even an inch.

Poll says Boris won 51:49

I don't get a chance to vote but in my echo chamber that is social media you would think Corbyn is going to win this but then you see the bookies offering 12-1 against a Labour victory actually happening and the reality hits home.
If you genuinely believe it is going to happen then you should go to every money lender there is and plough as much money as you can on a Labour victory. You will be so enormously rich at the end of it you might become a Tory so in winning you will have actually lost.
Good luck!
Ps you're even more mental put all that money on Orient getting promotion.

It's irrelevant what he would do. He will follow the will of the people as a good politician should do.

Not agreeing or disagreeing, however I have a hunch that Corbyn's team are the happiest this morning.

Anyway, it's also worth looking at a few of the underlying indicators beneath that (very tight) Yougov headline result:

Trustworthy
Corbyn 45
Johnson 40

Prime ministerial
Corbyn 29
Johnson 54

Likeable
Corbyn 37
Johnson 54

In touch with ordinary people
Corbyn 59
Johnson 25

It would appear that people do not consider being in touch or trustworthy as likeable or Prime ministerial qualities. :?

Then there's the ITV poll on who won; Corbyn 78%, Johnson 22%. Personally that is too high a difference and suggests the polling is compromised, so I'm tended to go with the YouGov version as a metric for how the general viewing public reacted.

A few of us tried to keep it sensible for the first two pages, but then the usual idiots from both sides descended.
