Quite simply, it is very very doubtful that Corbyn could gather the needed numbers together even with the help of the Scottish Nationalists, to form a government. I believe Labour has 242 seats in the Commons, the Scottish Nationalists 35 seats, as a result of this election. It's not enough, given that 326 is the minimum number to have a workable majority, provide a (neutral) Speaker, deputy Speaker etc. If the Conservative\ DUP alliance holds, May will have 328. Extremely tight, but better than Corbyn's position.
