The end of the rebel alliance?

It seems that talk to put a national unity government to take over brexit is dead in the water.

With the main sticking point is who will lead this temporary government.

This only shows that irrespective of the brexit issue which all opposition agree upon, there are deep divisions and the biggest division is upon Jeremy Corbyn, who is probably the most disliked leader by the public, and is loved only by his core supporters.

So was the rebel alliance doomed to failure before it started? Maybe.

In the world of politics, what unifies is very temporary, as long term schemes and power plays are first and foremost.

What do you think?

Government of national unity.... With only MPs who agree with remaining on it.

It's the most idiotic thing I've heard of since Brexit

Surely, all that is required is a temporary PM to do 2 things:

a) sign the letter asking for an extension

b) come back to Parliament and ask for a General Election.

I guess he or she will have to stay on as PM until the election, in case there is some national crisis or whatever.

Would they also need to appoint a Cabinet?

I think this idea may resurface if the Benn Act proves to be less effective than most Remainers current hope it will be.

The alliance was never a "Remain Alliance" but more a "Stop 'no deal' Alliance". Most rational people now believe that that objective has been successfully achieved.

I've not seen the news but if potential alliance politicians pull out of forming a temporary government with one aim, it reveals their core motivations.

They don't want to remain 100% in the EU, preferring their own political ends instead - almost certainly thinking of what's best for them in a general election. The interim PM wouldn't be enacting his party's post-election manifesto, merely acting in the care taker role of being the figurehead, pending the election proper. The government would have all coalition parties in it.tradition has the leader of the opposition as PM.

If the LibDems join, they likely see the prospect of fewer seats in the election. The public like politicians with principles and are averse to those who would harm them for their own ends. Corbyn did well for the party in the last election and there's a likely fear that he could repeat or improve on that if he's taken a limited PM role that sees him doing acceptably - he won't be driving fuller labour policy, merely holding the position.
