Brexit: Can Theresa May seal the deal with Tory critics?
Is the government about to lose control completely of the Brexit process? Not quite.
But the biggest question is, as it always has been. Is Theresa May about to seal the deal with the Brexiteers whose votes she so desperately needs? Well, not quite.This morning, there were some in government who were hopeful that the mood was suddenly turning and there might, in fact, be the numbers emerging for the prime minister to hold another vote on her deal with the EU in the Commons on Tuesday.
Iain Duncan Smith, Boris Johnson, Steve Baker, Dominic Raab and other key Brexiteers chewed over whether, after yesterday's meeting at the PM's country pad, they could move to back the deal after all. The meeting today didn't come to a concrete decision about whether or not the MPs present will ever back the prime minister's deal.
