Although Ms Swinson has said she is prepared to hold talks with the Labour leader, she still views his strategy as not"viable".
Speaking to the BBC on Friday, Ms Swinson said both Mr Clarke and Ms Harman were prepared to lead an emergency government. "Under the normal constitutional processes in Britain, when a government collapses, the leader of the main opposition party is called upon to form a government.In separate comments to the Press Association, the Labour leader said it was"not up to Jo Swinson to decide who the next prime minister is going to be".
And on Friday Mr Grieve signalled he would not be backing the Labour leader's plan, saying instead that he was prepared to work with like-minded MPs to avoid a"catastrophic" no-deal."In that context, I'm prepared to speak to any parliamentarian who shares that view, including the leader of the opposition," the Guardian quoted him as saying.
Labour RIP
LOL, this party leader needs to learn that you don’t win by fighting with loser tactics.
No one wants a commie pratt for pm
Leadership in the raw
EU collusion against the British people is treason. Lock him up!
Strictly NO CONFIDENCE IN JEREMY CORBYN...
🤦♀️🤦♀️
What does he expect jo is a Tory
jeremycorbyn why not let someone else be temp leader to ensure we stop Brexit or is being PM your main driver?
Jeremy is really a desperado! So, he really mean to take over govt through a coup!!! Democracy is only democratic when it favours you!!!
Yeah they're not going to decimate their recently won popularity to help you be PM. You unhinged individual.
Politics They want a caretaker PM, a Remoaner PM that will take care of Brexit for good.
I’m disappointed by his wet lettuce attempt to oppose it from day 1 I’m afraid. Poor show. Too little too late for me.
He looks shagged out.
You have. No chance of leading this country under any circumstance
A Goose and a Disgraceful Opportunist.
This bloke eh 😂😂😂😂 so completely out of touch of 17.4 million of us old fool x
Please just stop your silliness we want out come what may it is our choice mr Corbyn not yours it has turned into the silly season work together for the people who pay your wages x
kerryhunt282 Disappointed but not surprised. I never fell for the “We are the party of Remain” rubbish. A strategic move to get the Remain vote but with no true conviction to it!
This Labour Party are doomed !😂
Not that I want to encourage his ambition. But this suit and shirt not tucked in , it’s Michael foot donkey jacket senataph styling .he needs a proper makeover if he serious to be pm.
Stop being a selfish twat jeremycorbyn and get behind a government of national unity led by KenClarkeMP. How about putting country before party for once?
He's nothing but a British hating traitor who should have been locked up for treason decades ago 🤬
No confidence in him
Never mind go and cry on Lens shoulder
What a joke. Liar, undemocratic calling for coup - isn't that treason?
In other words, he’s upset at being denied “the keys to No 10”, at least for now, even though, as a leaver, he doesn’t give a damn one way or the other about No Deal.
I thinking think Corbyn is a Russian agent 🤔🤔
UKLabour Do this and I’ll be leaving the party.
NO ONE Trusts the Marxists ! Get it!! What a SLAP by another Anti-Democratic Party
What a tool this thing is
GRAVE. DODGER.
I bet he is... crude plan to take number ten falls on its arse 😂
What a total melt this bloke is! He is the problem with Labour.
It’s not up to Corbyn that’s for sure !
They are all suffering the Dunning-Kruger effect... incompetent arseholes.... hahahahaha....
It's up to the British people in a general election, not Swinson, Corbyn or anyone else! What is wrong with that man?
If this disgraceful coup ever took place I do believe this once great country will be finished for ever and I can only hope the 17.4 million people who have been betrayed take to the streets in protest
I think I speak for the majority here. WHAT A TOTAL BELLEND
Horrible old man.
No it’s up to the people but as we are mainly ignored by the bunch of twats in parliament they don’t give a shit
Jeremy Corbyn is the Official Leader of the Opposition, by right. He has 2 60% mandates to lead Labour. Labour got 40% of the vote in GE2017, 12m votes & 247 MPs. Jo Swinson has 14 MPs (inc 2 defectors). To suggest anyone but Corbyn should lead a caretaker govt is ludicrous.
Desperate embarrassing begging from corbyn, really how can anybody take this buffoon seriously?, he’s tried every trick from day one to gain power now it’s getting pathetic
It’s not Corbyns either, the pure arrogance of the man is astounding.
Anyone who backs this proposal is committing political suicide. Its like inviting a vampire over the threshold.
But it’s up to him ? .... He’s one humongous trouser gherkin 😂
cue: LibDems bashing by the Corbynista Army in 3...2...
not up to . jeremycorbyn either is it !
There’s only 2 worse mps that could take over from boris. Ones Jeremy and the other is dimwit abbot.
It’s not up to steptoe either...
It’s not up to him either.
Yes Jo it's not up to you, you are not in the politburo, it's up to Jeremy!
Its not up to jeremycorbyn to decide...we have a PM BorisJohnson about time he shuts up and thinks about UK besides himself Commy
jeremycorbyn Not you either....Snake
What will Shrek's daughter do now?
Or u?
neither is it His
But that's literally what he's asking her to do?
It’s up to each and every MP, so that’s just wrong.
