back said conservative m.p. caprice mog has a question for no confidence in the british prime minister and leadership contests will be triggered if a total of forty eight conservative m.p.'s write similar letters he says he thinks theresa may could be replaced quite quickly i think poem entry processes can be sped up and bear in mind the conservative party now has a list of members out central office it doesn't have to go around the country also being who the members are all oh no but i think we saw the really unrealistic to a fault of the nobs were preserved abroad is likely to be full of talent and there are many many people you're also with out on the coming where are ok well who were to start with your gold bars drugs and david davis you've got dominick rob enough to mcveigh you've got plenty more than you have dreams of talent within the conservative party who would be very capable of support leading a proper direction and a hall is following the story joins us live from london such i know we are standing b

corbin would win so no conservative m.p. wants to hand the keys to ten downing street to cope in but let me just say this of peter i make no pretense to be an authority on economics because i'm not but i would say this that what is the worst thing for another for an economy it's not a bad deal it's uncertainty now i speak with a lot of diplomats over here especially chinese diplomats and they have told me this they would draw for have a bad deal than uncertainty because if you have a bad deal with the world of business you know where you stand and you can do something about. it chinese diplomats have told me that if they no longer see britain as a bridge to the mainland of europe to re-explore their goods about pain tavist then they would have to seriously reconsider whether they have a presence in britain but if this uncertainty if there's no deal that's what i'm joyful not pates if there's no deal that's the worst of all alistair you want to jump in go ahead. yeah yeah i do because i just think it's very important to under

s because we know that especially conservative m.p.'s are also very very critical a lot of them who have food for breakfast they think that the u.k. will be tied to the you much too closely and and possibly for. an indefinite period of time so they don't really want to go ahead with it then there are others who also injuries and bait parties think that the second referendum could be possible to reason a strong card is well if you don't help me then we'll be at the situation where we just crash out at the end of march it's going to be chaos for everyone chaos for business pays at the borders so we just need to get this deal through it's my deal or no deal. and then what happens if if the deal gets voted down from the from the day it gets voted down to the to the weeks after what kind of scenarios communication. well there was a discussion here in london in the u.k. that then parliamentarians would sense reason made back and ask her to just get something a little bit better from the e.u. but then you know we've had today that this is very

and so legally the clock is ticking but it was intended to stiffen the ranks of conservative m.p.'s but the signs are singularly failed to do that just after the brig's if somebody said to me you know this will never happen that the law for something that basically a for joy as i call it now fudge it you think we are heading in that direction no i think the european union is hamstrung in any fudge it proposals that might have because part of their tactic is to make leaving the european union such a god awful process that no one else will want to do it because if there was a referendum like course in many you countries the vote would be to leave the e.u. so this if you'll pardon my french is for the discourse. for the discouragement of the others and so they can't really offer anybody atoll a much better deal than after two long years they've offered her and it seems like everybody sense blood in the water people looking for the position of prime minister think this is their chance also the labor party say we're we need a general election is the only way to sort things out do you th

the conservative party referendum on which almost all conservative m.p.'s stood so specifically but we would leave the customs union it did not have any small print saying oh unless we decide to have a backstop it is a permanent customs union that is harder to leave the leaving your opinion on the offical fifty above proposal in london it's important to remember that this is a man from her own side her own conservatives and to tell us who is jacob riis mark jacob free smart is one of the leading figure off the hard line breaks it cheers he very early on recognized that this was a cause that he could galvanize the the anti europeans and the tory party with us and he has been all of us to sort of been a figure on the back benches who never really put himself out into the limelight never said i want to be a leader i want to do anything but always been sniping from the back and bought his popularity within the tory party has been consistently hiding in some of it all of us have said he could be our next leader and then of course there are those who say you hav

s within her party black cities who want out and they are trying to secure forty eight conservative m.p.'s that's fifteen percent of the conservative party to write a letter saying there has to be a no confidence vote now they haven't got those numbers yet they've got around about twenty five that she is in danger and because of that she used that interview to warn them that they could be risking breck's it altogether. you know a change of leadership at this point isn't going to make the negotiations any easier and it's not going to change the parliamentary arithmetic what it will do what it will do is bring in a degree of uncertainty that's uncertainty for people and their jobs what it will do is mean that is a risk that actually we delay the negotiations and that's a risk that wrecks it gets delayed or frustrated. and even dominic robb who was the brett six secretary and till thursday when he quipped over this deal has said that he thinks that the leadership contest could be a distraction so at the moment she she just about seems ok i listen about brussels then for a moment how do you

m.p.'s from her ruling conservative party went public with letters of no confidence that all make is call for the british prime minister to go over her controversial draft deal announced on thursday nevertheless the beleaguered premier insists that parliament should get behind the agreement. yes difficult and sometimes uncomfortable decisions have had to be made i understand fully that there is some who are unhappy with those compromises but this deal delivers what people voted for and it is in the national interest. and we can only secure it if we unite behind the agreement reached in cabinet yesterday while with the march twenty nine thousand bricks it deadline looming may is coming under increasing pressure to secure concessions from the e.u. but on thursday the prime minister suffered yet another difficult day in office after her latest divorce plans triggered a wave of resignations and also talk of a no confidence vote she also suffered a three hour grilling in parliament by end pace we can choose to leave with no deal we can risk no breaks it is all we can. i or we can choose to uni

but whereby forty eight conservative party m.p.'s have to send letters into their backbench committee saying they want a no confidence vote those letters have started to go in some of said they've put them in more may yet follow when it's reached that number it simply triggers a vote and it may well be that this is what they're trying to do now it's it's a it's a it's a risky strategy for them to undertake because there's no guarantee that there are enough m.p.'s in the conservative party who want to see to reason may go on they may not like a deal but they don't necessarily like any of the other choices on offer either if she survives a vote of no confidence then she's immune from a further challenge for twelve months and of neutered themselves but of course but if she loses it then the chances high that she will be replaced by a pro breaks a far more ideologically driven prime minister who could well drive this country into a no deal breaks it. thank you very much indeed. still to come on the program the sajid coalition orders a p

are not delivering the break see people voted for and today you will lose the support of many conservative m.p. . millions of voters across the country the prime minister who has been reduced to playing political games rather than playing in the prime minister honestly believes that she commands the will of the people while she putts how bright sit in jail to the people either through a general election or a link that a new referendum the prime minister's offer good choice between the worst of all worlds and a catastrophic series of consequences the collective decision of cap and it was that the government should agree the draft withdrawal agreement and the outline initial declaration these decisions were not taken lightly but i believe it is a decision that is firmly in the national interest to resume a spend several hours meeting with her cabinet in order to thrash out an agreement a collective agreement about this draft brags that text and it would appear that she had mixed results because reports coming out state that a number of her cabinet colleagues including sajid javid led some. liam
