A government of national unity, with no involvement of any Brexit supporter, lead by Jeremy Corbin as interim prime minister. What could possibly go wroñg?
With one intention of holding a referendum, but ño indication of what the referendum choices could be. |  |

Well that's not going to happen anyway. There might be a unity government but JC won't be in charge.

None of that is actually going to happen. However, we are living in extreme times where drastic action may be needed to avert disaster. |  |

I wouldn't be surprised - now is not the time for remainers to bicker - JC would only be in charge for weeks to necessitate blocking No Deal and getting a GE organised |  |

Lib Dems have said they won't support JC and it can't happen without them so he won't be PM.
They are pushing for Ken Clarke or Harmen as temporary PM.
Why should JC be in charge - he's not a remainer in any way.

Because he is the leader of the biggest party - and if all they are trying to do initially is block No Deal then he is the best bet to do so. | |

I understand that viewpoint, however it still remains the case that you're asking someone who has really not tried to stop Brexit or even bothered to have much of a policy to stop Brexit.
What if there is a crisis during the time he's temporary PM? What we then have is no different to what Boris is - an unelected PM without a majority making major decisions for all of us.
It's need to be thought through more than it has been. If Labour want to stop Brexit why does it matter who is in temporary charge? Why must it be JC? I honestly don't think he has the support of enough of the house.

He doesn’t have the confidence of his own MPs let alone the confidence of the house.
And are the people who were only bleating last month about our PM not being elected, going to do the same if JC gets the gig? |  |

Yeah but you also think Boris is a good PM so nothing you say can be taken seriously. | |

It's getting JC into No. 10 by any means possible, in the hope that he will be able to remain there going forward. Might also prevent an bad Labour collapse in any upcoming General Election. |  |

It’s a no from me.
Would go down horribly with the public and ensure a good election result for Boris. |  | | |

The words 'no involvement of any Brexit supporter' and 'Jeremy Corbyn' are mutually exclusive. |  |

Exactly. Whoever it is needs to carry a majority and about 50 of his own MPs are against him.
I thought Jo Swinson put it very well. It shouldn’t matter who is a “2 week PM”, just that no-deal is stopped. And Corbyn simply doesn’t have the votes

The problem is no one carries sufficient support. I fear that if they don't accept the leader of the opposition they won't accept anyone.
Lucas's idea of an all-female cabinet seemed pretty ridiculous. There sound like so many different ideas it is a real danger that nothing is acceptable rather like what has got us where we are. |  |

If you’re trying to stop a no deal Brexit, would you ask someone who has been anti-EU most of his political life to do it?
That is the crux of the issue for me, even before you get to the point he can’t carry his own party | | | |
