Early Parliamentary General Election

Debate between Gareth Snell and Jeremy Corbyn

Wednesday 19th April 2017 Commons Chamber

[Gareth Snell]

I try not to take it personally that, having arrived so recently, the Prime Minister is that desperate to get rid of me that she is calling an election.

Does my right hon. Friend agree that the Prime Minister, in calling this election, has essentially said that she does not have confidence in her own Government to deliver a Brexit deal for Britain? One way in which she could secure my vote and the votes of my hon. Friends is to table a motion of no confidence in her Government, which I would happily vote for.

[Jeremy Corbyn]

I congratulate my Friend on his election to the House and on his work. I agree with him: I have no confidence in this Government either.
