Corbyn to rally Westminster to bring down Boris Johnson
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn

JEREMY CORBYN is rallying all available forces in Westminster to bring down Boris Johnson as he heads for crunch talks with other opposition party leaders at noon and demands a general election.

The Labour leader will re-emphasise the need for an election as “the simplest and most democratic way” to stop a no-deal Brexit.

“I’ll discuss all these options with the leaders of other opposition parties,” he said. “I hope we can come to a good working arrangement and bring on board others across Parliament who see the danger of a no-deal crash out.”
