Jeremy Corbyn is wrong to back a second vote on Britain’s membership of the European Union, the party representing Britain’s Marxists and Leninists has said.

Will Podmore, a spokesman for the Communist Party of Britain (Marxist-Leninist), told today’s Chopper’s Brexit Podcast - which you can listen to easily by logging in or subscribing below - Communists wanted a clean Brexit to give Britons “a chance to make decisions about their own future.

Mr Podmore said the Communists in Britain wanted a clean Brexit, taking the UK out of both the customs union and single market later this month.

He said: “The EU is not just about economic co-operation it is about creating a new political project for a federal European state.

“That is a far less democratic version of politics than the one we have got in this country now.”

He added: “We think it is more democratic, it reasserts the importance of national sovereignty, and they go very much together.”
