Boris Johnson could be forced to step down as British PM
It will be another battle royale in the British House of Commons next week as opposition law-makers prepare a plan to force the embattled British PM out of office.
The British PM Boris Johnson could be forced to step down next week as opposition MPs join forces to replace him with an interim administration in order to secure another Brexit delay beyond the fast-looming deadline of October 31.
Senior Scottish National Party MP Stewart Hosie has told the BBC there was a real chance a House of Commons no confidence vote could take place in the government during the next week of deliberations. If Boris Johnson loses the vote he could be replaced as PM by Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn for a short period of time.
Corbyn himself faces criticism for his vague Brexit stance and failure to stamp out anti-Semitism in the Labour Party. His approval rating sits at minus 60 points making him the least popular of any opposition leader on record. Most pundits believe his party would fall well short of a majority if an election were held.
