I cannot see how a Labour/Lib Dem coalition wouldn't benefit both. A guaranteed soft Brexit with Single Market retained plus Customs Union; better immigration; boost for NHS and benefits and education. Labour agrees not to fight seats where Lib Dems could beat Tories; ditto Lib Dems on seats that Labour could beat Tories. SNP would be delighted if Corbyn more favourable to Scottish soft Brexit. It works for all - except Typhoid May.

According to an article published today, Jeremy Corbyn is still against a cross-party alliance, as are the Lib Dems.
Hopefully he will change his mind. I can't see Labour winning outright and I feel a cap on his more extreme left policies would be needed. I see no reason to doubt he'd be a good Prime Minister (except for media hatred). But he needs partners to curb excesses. And the SNP are the voice of Scotland and deserve a voice in Brexit (May has denied them one).
