British Prime Minister Theresa May will on Monday chair a potentially volatile meeting of her cabinet amid reports of an attempted coup by colleagues over her handling of Brexit.
Under a new timetable imposed by European leaders last week, she now has until April 12 to win MPs’ backing for the agreement or find a viable alternative which could include a lengthy extension to Brexit. Such gatherings usually take place on Tuesdays but Downing Street confirmed one was scheduled for 10:00 am Monday.“It’s not the time to change the captain of the ship,” said Environment Minister and leading Brexiteer Michael Gove.
On Saturday, organisers estimated one million pro-Europeans marched through central London demanding another public vote on leaving the bloc.Following last week’s delay to the country’s March 29 scheduled departure — which MPs must still vote into law this week — the way forward remains highly unpredictable.It was expected to face another vote this week but the prime minister has told lawmakers signs of “sufficient support” are needed first.
“It’s looking very difficult to bring together a majority for it,” finance minister Philip Hammond earlier conceded to Sky News.
