The leader of Britain’s opposition Labor Party said today he will move to call a national election by moving to a vote of impeachment against Prime Minister Boris Johnson next week unless Conservative MPs act to oust him sooner.
Johnson has said he will step down when a new Tory leader is chosen, with further details of the timetable set next week by the Conservative Party’s 1922 Committee.
Asked if he was pushing for a motion of no confidence next week to trigger an election, Keir Starmer said yes and said Tory MPs should remove Johnson now rather than wait for the next leader.
“The onus is on the Conservative Party to do the right thing, and obviously there are meetings early next week with the 1922 Commission. So it’s on them to do the right thing,” Starmer told a news conference.
“If they don’t, we will proceed with a motion of censure,” he concluded.
