Johnson will advance hard brexit?
On the 14th, tugendat, chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the conservative House of Commons, warned that Johnson might unilaterally announce no agreement to leave Europe before the G7 Summit on August 24 in order to avoid parliamentary obstruction, and then hold a general election.
Some EU legal experts believe that the plan is not feasible and emphasize that any change to the brexit period must be agreed by the EU.
It is reported that tugendat, who opposes brexit without agreement, said that since the parliament is adjourning, Johnson can leave the EU in advance without the consent of the parliament. If Johnson wins the next election, he can solve the border problem between Northern Ireland and Ireland through a "backup plan" only applicable to Northern Ireland.
However, the British Prime Minister's office stressed that this option was not considered at present. Johnson also reiterated on the 14th that he did not intend to leave Europe without agreement, but warned that the more parliament prevented it, the more confident the EU would be and unwilling to make concessions.
The opposition Labour Party vowed to overthrow Johnson
The British opposition Labor Party launched an action to overthrow Johnson, called on members of Parliament to support a no confidence vote on the cabinet headed by Johnson, and united to support the caretaker cabinet organized by labor party leader Corbin to prevent Britain from leaving Europe without agreement. It is reported that Johnson promised that Britain would leave the European Union on October 31 to set the stage for a parliamentary showdown. Many members of Parliament oppose brexit without a transitional agreement.
It is reported that Corbin wrote to opposition leaders and several senior conservatives who disagreed with Johnson that the "strict time limit" interim government formed by him will delay brexit and hold general elections. He said that the Labour Party would then hold a second referendum on the conditions for brexit in the general election, which would also include the option of whether Britain should remain in the EU.
Corbin said: "the government (led by Johnson) has not been authorized to leave Europe without agreement, nor has the referendum held in 2016 authorized to leave Europe without agreement. Therefore, when we are confident of success, we will seize the opportunity to move a no confidence motion as soon as possible. "
A spokesman for the prime minister's residence in Downing Street said that Corbin was disdaining the results of the 2016 referendum, 'Corbin believes that the people are just & lsquo; Servant & rsquo;, Politicians can revoke the referendum results they don't like. "
The British Parliament will end its summer recess on September 3 and return to the parliament to attack and defend the issue of brexit, which will also determine the future fate of the world's fifth largest economy. A Labor Party spokesman said that parliament may face challenges in a few days.
