Corbyn rallies opposition in bid to block no-deal Brexit
Al JazeeraThe leader of Britain’s opposition Labour Party has brought together political leaders to thrash out a way forward. Corbyn said he would “do everything necessary” to stop a no-deal Brexit, following leaked official warnings that this could lead to food, fuel and medicine shortages. “The attendees agreed on the urgency to act together to find practical ways to prevent No Deal, including the possibility of passing legislation and a vote of no confidence.” The Labour leader has said he plans to call a no-confidence vote against Prime Minister Boris Johnson next week and, if he wins it, as the head of the largest opposition party, would be ready to lead a caretaker government, delay Brexit and hold a fresh general election. “Parliament must grasp this opportunity, unite to stop Boris Johnson shutting down democracy – and be ready to use all mechanisms to block a no-deal disaster, including deploying legislation as a priority,” he said. Independent Group for Change leader Anna Soubry said: “We agree we will work together to stop a no-deal Brexit by legislation.” Plaid Cymru leader Adam Price added: “We committed to work co-operatively with every other opposition party and do everything in our power to avoid a catastrophic crash-out Brexit.” Before Tuesday’s talks, Corbyn wrote in the Independent that Johnson was “cosying up to” US President Donald Trump in the hope of securing a free trade deal after Brexit.
