And so the fudge goes on to continue the lack of clarity over Brexit and conceal a divide between Blairites and Marxists. Time for the Labour party to shed their red coats and reveal their blue star spangled knickers.Labour conference: Move to abolish deputy post ditched

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has quashed a motion at his party conference to oust his deputy, Tom Watson, by abolishing the position.
Mr Corbyn suggested the role should be reviewed instead, and was backed by the ruling National Executive Committee, a Labour source said. A group of Labour MPs had urged the NEC to avoid an "internal civil war" when it should be preparing for an election.
Mr Watson called the move to oust him a "sectarian attack" on a "broad church". The party conference, which is being held in Brighton, opened on Saturday and will also see debate on other proposals, including Labour's stance on Brexit. Meanwhile, Labour frontbenchers Sir Keir Starmer and Emily Thornberry appeared at a rally for the People's Vote campaign, which supports another referendum, and confirmed they would back Remain.
