Conservative MPs Meet over Plot to Oust Theresa May

alphanews.live

Conservative MPs have held an open discussion on how to oust Theresa May from Downing Street. 

About 50 MPs are thought to have gathered for a private meeting to discuss how to remove the prime minister.

Many of them are still unhappy with her Brexit strategy despite EU negotiator Michel Barnier suggesting a deal could be reached by the start of November.

As Sky News reports, the opposition towards Mrs May has increased over the summer recess, and former Brexit minister Steve Baker has warned she faces "a tremendous amount of political crisis and rupture" if she does not ditch her Chequers plan for leaving the EU.

At least 48 letters of no confidence need to be submitted to 1922 Committee chairman Sir Graham Brady to trigger a vote on her premiership, and Sky sources suggest it could arrive within just a few weeks.
