I'm no Corbynista, but blaming someone not in power for decisions made by those IN power is just what the Right want you to do.

Obviously Cameron bears the overwhelming responsibility for calling the referendum in the first place (and not setting rigorous conditions for its validity etc). But this was a rare moment when the Opposition could have made a decisive difference. Corbyn chose not to, given his own Brexit leanings.
Indeed I wish he had done better, but saying he should have done better in opposing rather than focussing on the people who actually had the power is not helpful. (more to the point would be to blame the Labour voters who elected Corbyn I guess - they did make a difference. I was not one of them).
