If parliament rejects confidence vote, PM Johnson has green light for Brexit plan- spokesman

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson will see it as a green light to get on with his plan to leave the European Union on Oct. 31 if opposition parties decline his offer to hold a no-confidence vote on Thursday, his spokesman said.

"If MPs (Members of Parliament) don't take the opportunity to say they have no confidence in the government, the government should be allowed to get on with its strategy of taking the UK out on Oct. 31," Johnson's spokesman told reporters.
