		</div><p>Boris Johnson has arrived in Manchester for a Tory party conference which faces being overshadowed by moves to oust him at Westminster.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>The British Prime Minister also faces pressure over his links with businesswoman Jennifer Arcuri while he was London mayor.</p>
<p>Mr Johnson refused to answer questions about his political and personal battles as he arrived with girlfriend Carrie Symonds at the Midland Hotel ahead of the conference, which begins on Sunday.</p>
<figure id="attachment_140901" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-140901" style="width: 600px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img class="size-full wp-image-140901" src="https://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/8D78A874-3406-4756-9880-2669256F1668.jpeg" alt="" width="600" height="900" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-140901" class="wp-caption-text">Boris Johnson accompanied by partner Carrie Symonds</figcaption></figure>
<p>A small group of protesters gathered outside the ring of steel which surrounds the conference venue, and their anti-Brexit cries could be heard as Mr Johnson got out of his ministerial Jaguar.</p>
<p>“Boris is a liar” and “get your Johnson out of our democracy” were among the slogans chanted by the demonstrators.</p>
<p>The Government’s defeat in the Supreme Court and its failure to win a Commons vote to schedule a recess for the conference means that Tory MPs face shuttling between Manchester and Westminster to counter the threat of an ambush by opposition parties.</p>
<p><!--Ads2--></p>
<p>A senior SNP MP said the opposition parties could stage a vote of no-confidence in the Government as early as next week in a bid to replace the Prime Minister with a caretaker leader who would secure an extension to the Brexit deadline.</p>
<p>Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn is expected to convene another meeting of opposition leaders in Westminster on Monday to plot their next moves aimed at preventing a no-deal Brexit on October 31.</p>
<p>Speaking to reporters at a rally in Chingford, Essex, Mr Corbyn said he stood ready to lead an interim government if Mr Johnson was forced from No 10.</p>
<p>Mr Johnson is also under pressure over his conduct as mayor after he was referred to the police complaints body to assess whether he should face a criminal investigation over his links with American businesswoman Ms Arcuri.</p>
<p>The Greater London Authority (GLA) said its monitoring officer had recorded a “conduct matter” against Mr Johnson over allegations Ms Arcuri received favourable treatment because of her friendship with him while he was mayor of London.</p>
<p>The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) will now consider whether there are grounds to investigate the Prime Minister for the criminal offence of misconduct in public office.</p>
<p>The move was greeted with fury in Downing Street, which denounced the referral by the GLA, led by Labour mayor Sadiq Khan, as a “nakedly political put-up job” on the eve of the party conference.</p>
<p><!--Ads3--></p>
<p>Cabinet minister Theresa Villiers said: “I think this whole thing has been blown out of all proportion.”</p>
<p>The Environment Secretary told the BBC’s Today programme: “This seems to be pretty obviously a politically motivated complaint.</p>
<p>“The Prime Minister has been clear there is nothing to see here. I do feel this is a distraction and it is people seeking to use the complaints process in a highly political way.”</p>
<p>But Mr Corbyn told reporters: “A wholly independent assessment has looked at evidence of the payments made by the mayor’s office to one particular company and says there are serious questions to answer.</p>
<p>“I think the job of the Prime Minister is to answer those questions.”</p>
