Labours problem is that they have nowhere to go on brexit, they can't out brexit the tories, going brexit lite is risky with the north and midland seats that voted out and going full on anti brexit would likely destroy them electorally - it resulted in no increase in support for the lib dems on that platform at the election. So i understand corbyns dilemna, scotland is a totally different set of circumstances to england and wales. There may well be an election soon so labour needs to maximise its chances of a win, best way to do that is to give the tories 'enough rope' with brexit and concentrate on domestic issues.
It may frustrate us 'remainers' but its a solid tactic.
As for leonard he has a long way to go before he makes labour electable up here, the party is a complete shambles north of the border.
