The former coalition government minister will claim the prime minister is"doing a pretty good impression" of"socialist dictators", following Mr Johnson's suspension of parliament and expulsion of 21 Conservative MPs who voted against him on Brexit.

She will say:"There is even now the suggestion that he would break the law and refuse to ask for an extension to Article 50."For someone who proclaims to hate socialist dictators, he's doing a pretty good impression of one." Sky News sees how MEPs would sell themselves to a prospective partner... if they were on the other side of the Brexit divide

And Ms Swinson will also turn her fire on Labour leader Mr Corbyn, as well as the Brexit Party's Nigel Farage. "When the general election comes, I cannot wait to take on the collective forces of nationalism and populism that will be standing on that debate stage," she will say.In a further assault on the Labour leader, Ms Swinson will add:"Even now, when faced with all the clear and obvious dangers that Brexit brings, Jeremy Corbyn still insists that if Labour win a general election, they will negotiate their own Brexit deal to take us out of the EU.

More jokes. Keep them coming - it’s hilarious!

No chance of it happening.

LibDems the new home for political career suicides.

Another deluded tribalist

I'm speechless. And ppl that know me, Well!!

😂 😂 😂 JoSwinson

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

😳you’ve been trolling all day on here with the Liberal Jo shizzle. What a crescendo with this tweet tho 😂

It’s just getting embarrassing now! You need to bring back Vince at least he was tolerable and sounded like he knew what he was doing!

I read “declare herself...” and got all excited.

It’ll be embrassing for her when she loses her seat in the coming general election.

Absolutely deluded

Absolutely NOT where I’m concerned. How dare she disregard the wishes of 17.4 million people. But shouldn’t be surprised they sold the students out when they increased tuition fees after saying they wouldn’t. What a shambles they are.

Ha,ha,ha, that is so funny. When is she being taken back to the loony bin.

Mrs Clown.

The best comedy today

😂🤣😂🤣

😂 think we’re getting mixed uowhat country we live in now.

The Jo Swinson overload from news outlets is somehow making the Lib Dem’s even more unelectable.

Listening to her train of logic on bbcnews at 10 I thought several of her carriages were not coupled together at all. Her argument is deeply flawed. Total Britishindependence NOW!

So do I where can I apply.....

As a former Lib Dem campaigner I have to say I'd sooner stick pins through my eyeballs while drinking a cup of warm sick than support or vote for them again.

Save us from another female PM, especially a nutter

So J Swinson wants to totally ignore the democratic vote of 17.4m people and cancel brexit. The Lib Dems are going to get a lot of votes in a GE. I think not.

The way modern politics are going, all that she has to do is defect to the Conservatives , mount a leadership challenge, win ..... then defect back to the LibDems 🤔..... sod it, I might put a fiver on her in the morning

I’m just googling the definition of “deluded”

Inasmuch as the Leader of the LibDems is the de facto PM if (big if, obvs) LibDems achieve the majority seats at the next election. Is this a news story? Oh, , probably not then.

Listening to her train of logic on bbcnew at 10 I thought several of her carriages were not coupling together at all. He argument is deeply flawed. Total Britishindependence NOW!

Oh dear...

Absolutely barking mad 🤡👈

And we thought Vince Cable was a prick.

Jo Swinson ruthlessly mocked at prospect of becoming Prime Minister to lead Brexit debateJO SWINSON faced a backlash and mocking statements after one Lib Dem MP argued it was “credible” that the party leader could become Prime Minister after the next general election. I'm no fan of hers but if a buffoon like Johnson can become PM even for a short time, anything is possible. Not surprised, what the hell possessed the LD's to vote her in, absolute joke, bet Chukka fancies his chances of taking over with once she gets anhialated at the next GE. No way is she PM material

YES give people the chance to vote for that in a 2nd ref. Seriously, why drive away middle ground voters like this?
