The immense seriousness of this moment explains why Labour’s newly agreed Brexit policy is both very important and very welcome. It thus opens the possibility that Britain could remain in the single market and the customs union long-term. This is a unified Labour policy. All this suggests a Labour party which, at least on this supremely important issue, is willing to come together rather than conspire and snipe at itself. The country needs such a Labour party.
