Will the Lib Dems enable a no deal Brexit?

What’s the bigger threat to neoliberalism; to corporate/elite power - Corbynism or Brexit? Brexit is a threat to some elites, but great for others. Corbynism (socialism) is a threat to all. So it is no wonder that the (neo)Liberal Democrats seemingly prefer the prospect of a no deal Brexit to the prospect of a Corbyn government.

The Liberal Democrats don't see anything fundamentally wrong with the incredibly unjust and destructive, neoliberal economic system, and they know that socialism is the biggest threat to it. 

Increasingly, it seems as though they will try and preserve it any cost, even if that means further empowering Boris Johnson's hard right Conservative party.

They have their heads in the sand, oblivious to the fact that the neoliberal system and world order that they support is at the root of the current crisis. Their focus is on short term power, not what is right for the country and our future.
