It seems odd to want to leave labour now,especially as the leadership are getting back to grassroots politics and the majority of their front bench are pretty much ordinary people.
Labour was Pro EU and freedom of movement under Blair but I think Kinnock changed Labour's view on Europe after Foot. I feel there are other Labour members and even Labour politicians who are very London centric and don't understand what life is like outside the M25, they say they do but do they really.
Yes the majority of the front bench are ordinary and seem more down to earth and its great Corbyn is going around the country giving speeches but there are other issues in the party as well Hibeejim21 among members which is why people are leaving as well.
Also just because you support a political party it doesn't mean you always agree with everything they say or do. You will probably disagree with things the SNP say or do.
