Jo Swinson is not a figure, the respects and on the daily life of Party Politics ," Ms Swinsons told the BBC want to see Mr Corbyn would have to be No 10

The guard at, ".

Veteran Europhile former Tory Chancellor Ken Clarke and Labour's Margaret Beckett , who was caretaker leader of her own party in the early 1990s, after the death of John Smith, have both been proposed as a possible supervisor.

But the question of whether a transitional Government could be led by someone other than Mr Corbyn, the leader of the official opposition, Mr McDonnell said: "no, The Rules are The Rules . "

He said MS Swinson maybe you change your mind about the topic, and added: "I am a great believer in the forces of transformation. "

In response, a spokesman for Ms Swinson said she was "a great believer in The Power of mathematics" and the amounts don't add up for the Labour leader.

The opposition parties say they are United in their desire to prevent Mr Johnson from the UK from the EU on the 31 of October without an offer.

Mr Johnson urges you to vote for a General election, but they say they will not do so until a no-deal-UK EU outlet is excluded and the follow you do not trust, Mr Johnson, The Law , is for an extension in October EU summit.

The clock is a deal is still possible with the EU and the Government will from the fresh proposals in the next few days.

'Rules of the game'

Mr McDonnell said the 21 former Tory rebels would "obviously" want to what, Mr. Johnson gets on the EU summit before deciding whether to back a no-confidence motion.

He said work was Sedwill, the search for a meeting with the chef de Cabinet to Sir Mark, to try to determine what would happen if the Government was defeated, but Mr. Johnson is still trying to "squat" in No 10, until to the UK from the EU.

"We are suggesting that we meet with the head of Cabinet only, at least, get the game Rules sorted," he told reporters in Westminster.

SNP sources have expressed frustration that the cross-party talks on the next Brexit steps are always a little More Than "tea and biscuits".

A request from the opposition party, the whips have been refused a debate on the approval of the Government , not offer Brexit planning papers by the Speaker John Bercow on Monday .

leaders of the opposition met on Monday in Westminster

The SNP leader in Westminster, Ian Blackford , said deputies, the opposition supported The Law , which the watch should be on the search for a Brexit delay the "courage of their convictions" and again a vote of no confidence to remove the "toxic" Mr Johnson from Downing Street.

"That would be real leadership if the opposition parties were willing to do that," he told BBC 2's policy is Live program.

"We have a Prime Minister who was willing to break The Law and crash the us at the end of October," he added.

"If we want to make sure that we are at the end of October to stay in Europe, if we want to stop this Prime Minister , then we need to be counted to stand up - and that means that a motion of censure".

Mr Blackford also rejected proposals for a transitional Government could hold another Brexit referendum before an election, adding that it would be "extremely difficult".

He said, that would require such management to be in place for "at least six months," but it was "something of a majority" in the Parliament for such an idea.
