form ofjustice been invited back as david gauke the form of justice secretary been invited back as davido did vote for the timetable. so surely he climbed a ladder last week and he should be back in? yes, the majority of the 21 tory rebels did vote for the prime minister's withdrawal bill with only three that didn't. these ten have been readmitted for the conservative party voted for a timetable. poor david gauke also voted for this but he has not been let in and it is a mystery as to why. why might that be? it is a series of votes and you need to go through how they all voted on. the let to an amendment is being taken into account. what was supposed to be super saturday and then fell flat when they thought they would have a meaningful vote and it got moved in they had to do it next week, also looking at the second reading. the mps they have picked as a general sense that this group have been the most loyal on a regular basis compared to others. i do think david gauke is someone that lots of conservative mps feel should be in the tory party. i think other names missing from that list tha

conservative peers on the other side of the general election, but what is quite interesting is david gauke just a secondary has not come back which is quite striking, the same as for ken clarke and philip hammond and robbie stuart who was standing as an independent candidate for mayor of london. bringing these ten back into the project will bolster boris johnson's numbers for the votes tonight but it is a clear sign of how he sees the future of the conservative party. do you know how this is going to affect what happens in constituencies, will the 11 who are not on this list have to run as independents and will be conservatives but candidates against them? some of the candidates like caroline nokes had already been adopted by her conservative association before she was booted out of the parliamentary conservative party. the others i imagine if they were going to be readopted they will be readopted pretty quickly, if you take ed va izey pretty quickly, if you take ed vaizey for example, he will be allowed back pretty rapidly and the same for greg clark. i think they will probably be back as

one key player in the brexit saga has been the former conservative minister, david gauke, member of the for the letwin amendment. this is what he had to say about the possibility of the government holding a vote on boris johnson's brexit deal on monday. one of the things that we saw today was two issues being entangled. one was two issues being entangled. one was whether the government should see an extension to get a letter in, if something goes wrong with the legislation for the deal. that we have that in place so that we don't crash out without a deal on the 31st of october and people like me want to make sure we have that insurance policy in place. there was also the issue of the prime minister is deal and whether parliament backs it or not. for someone like me i want to make sure the insurance policy is in place but if there is a clean vote on the deal then i would vote in favour of it. we did not get that today. we do not have the details, i don't know what the motion would be but i suspect what the government wa nts to but i suspect what the government wants to do is, in a way, w

sorry to interrupt, i mentioned david gauke, ta ke interrupt, i mentioned david gauke, take a breath,d there is going to bea house of commons said there is going to be a vote on monday. the problem is there's not much detail on all of that, even the speaker was surprised by that. we do not know exactly what it will be, is going to be a straight vote on the brexit or is it possibly the first stage really of the legislation, the bill, the withdrawal agreement bill that would need to go through. let us discuss it with david gauke, the independent, we do not know for sure but this is about, but why would the government do this? one of the things that we saw today was if you like two issues being entangled. one was about whether the government should seek an extension to get a letter in, if something goes wrong with the legislation for the deal, that we have that in place so that we do not crash out without a deal on the 31st of october and people like me want to make sure that we have got that insurance policy in place. then there is also the issue of the prime minister 's deal and if par

david gauke, a conservative, an ex conservative announces he will support the deal but is wanting toaim. our assistant political editor in the houses of parliament. how would you assess what we have had so far today? the tone from boris johnson what we have had so far today? the tone from borisjohnson was interesting. a much more conciliatory tone and some of his performances, trying to reach out to those wavering labour mps who could be critical if we actually get to a vote on his deal. eh? about that. saying the nhs is not going to be on the table in any future trade talk. saying no one was pushing for a lowering of high environmental standards. trying to pick off a few labour mps who standards. trying to pick off a few labourmps who might standards. trying to pick off a few labour mps who might give him enough numbers to possibly get this over the line. it brought the sharpest question from... he said, hang on a second, you are telling us you are in favour of workers‘ rights. you can‘t have it both ways. the tone was interesting from borisjohnson. the question is, will we get to t
