Will Tory MPs swallow May's Brexit formula?

Mark D'Arcy
Parliamentary correspondent
1 hour ago


Last weekend the government had a glimpse of how quickly it could break itself over Brexit.
For a few hours, at least, it seemed as if Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson might resign, triggering a leadership crisis, and possibly an outright collapse. Maybe even an election.
The moment passed. There was a show of unity at the Cabinet. But you only need shows of unity when you are trying to manage dangerous divisions, and tensions over the final form of Brexit still lurk behind the fixed grins of ministers, as the prime minister's "Brexit Means Brexit" rubric wears thin.
Viewed against that backdrop Theresa May's Florence speech now looks crucial to the political stability of the Conservative Party.
Because the government is not just negotiating with the EU; it is negotiating with itself and, by extension, with its backbenchers, and with the broader constituencies of Leave and Remain voters outside Westminster.

Bei den britischen Konservativen mehren sich die Forderungen nach einer Ablösung von Premierministerin Theresa May. Der ehemalige Generalsekretär Grant Shapps appellierte am Freitag an May, eine Neuwahl der Führung anzusetzen. Bis zu 30 Abgeordnete unterstützten dies, sagte Shapps in der BBC. May konterte, das Land brauche in diesen Zeiten "eine ruhige Führung". Dafür sorge sie mit ihrem Kabinett.

Brussels warns Brexit talks heading for point of no return
The prospects of Britain leaving the EU without a trade deal escalated on Tuesday after Brussels warned stalled Brexit talks could pass a point of no return in December and the UK Treasury drew up plans for emergency spending in case a pact is not agreed.

Donald Tusk, European Council president, said he hoped enough progress could be made by the end of the year to allow the start of talks on a future trade relationship between the UK and EU, but warned that negotiations could not limp on indefinitely.

“If it turns out that the talks continue at a slow pace, and that ‘sufficient progress’ hasn’t been reached, then — together with our UK friends — we will have to think about where we are heading,” he said.
