Leaders of Lib Dems, Greens, Plaid, SNP were meant to meet Corbyn this afternoon. He didn't turn up.
Maybe due to Bercow bombshell but attendees unimpressed. "Not sure it shows his willingness to work cross-party," says one attendee.
New meeting fixed for tomorrow.

here's part of the *rather pointed* statement just released by the four party leaders:
"We welcome the opportunity to sit down together with Jeremy Corbyn for the first time tomorrow. The UK faces an unprecedented crisis with Brexit, and Westminster remains deeply divided."

One source told me that the four weren’t given advance notice of the cancellation.
But Corbyn team denying that strongly:
“They were told at 1505 that JC couldn’t make 1630 and offered a time tomorrow which they accepted at 1632....”

good to see the Labour leader make it to the annual kebab awards tho
So Corbyn today met leaders of the small parties:
Labour: "Should there not be a majority in Parliament for May's deal or a public vote, Corbyn called on the other parties to engage constructively to find a parliamentary majority for a close economic relationship with the EU."

fair to say that the leaders of the four parties actively pursuing 2nd referendum didn’t like the Corbyn emphasis on achieving softer Brexit instead
