Britain’s opposition Labour Party will not support Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s bid to call an early election in a vote in parliament on Monday, a source in the party told Euronews.
The government has put forward a motion calling for an early election, which would require the backing of two-thirds of the lower house of parliament’s 650 lawmakers. A vote on the same motion on Wednesday failed to win enough support.
Labour’s foreign affairs spokeswoman said that opposition parties were going to meet to discuss the issue on Friday.
The Lib Dems added that they will not vote for a general election until an extension is agreed with the EU.
The Scottish Nationalist Party’s leader in Westminster also added to the mix.
