Johnson could face no-confidence vote next week to halt no-deal Brexit [View all]
There could be a vote of no confidence in the government next week in order to remove Boris Johnson as prime minister and secure a Brexit date extension, a senior Scottish National party MP has said.
Following talks between opposition party leaders at Westminster, Stewart Hosie said the move appeared to be the only way of ensuring Johnson did not push through a no-deal Brexit on 31 October.
We have to do that because there is now no confidence that the prime minister will obey the law and seek the extension that parliament voted for only a few weeks ago, he told BBC Radio 4s Today programme.
If we are serious about the extension, that is the only game in town.

I think they are going too soon... the numbers do not add up sufficiently right now...
I cannot see any of the independent ex Tories voting against the PM if they think Corbyn would end up as caretaker PM - same with the Lib Dems...
We will see - but I think Boris will win it because the alternative is unthinking to the majority - however awful he is.
