yes, well, nicky morgan saying that.hat she said it publicly. not that she may think that privately, because we know she was somebody who supported remain in the referendum and she has her own reluctance in terms of a no—deal brexit. but she signed up to a cabinet which may go for a no—deal brexit if borisjohnson cannot achieve a change in the deal with the european union, unless parliament of course stops it if new laws come in. and so actually having her come out and say that is quite astonishing. she was backtracking afterward saying that she didn't support the idea of a referendum. but there's already been criticism of her. david lammy, the labour mp, has said that "she put career progression before her constituents, country, and conscience." so some of the flavour of what people are saying about those comments. but yeah, at the same time we have the liberal democrats starting their conference today. and their message on brexit is very clear, it is about revoking article 50. it is about reversing brexit and they are

and in the last hour we've heard from the culture secretary nicky morgan, who told us what she would of second referendum. if it comes to a point where you are asked to vote again in a referendum, can you give a give me a straight a nswer can you give a give me a straight answer as to how would you would vote 7 answer as to how would you would vote? i would vote to remain. let's get more on this with our political correspondent susana mendonca. nicky morgan was speaking to us about other things today, but the issues around brexit and how it works within the cabinet, it's interesting, her answer there? very interesting, her answer there? very interesting, and i think it is a sign of the cracks that are surfacing within the cabinet. we had amber rudd who left the cabinet over the defections and the issue as to whether she thought borisjohnson was working towards a deal. nicky morgan said she was going to stay in the room, that she was ruling out quitting, but she is of course somebody who does feel uncomfortable, somebody who does feel u nco mforta ble, clearly, somebody who does feel

and here we have nicky morgan st that if there were a referendum, she would then vote for remain.the different opinions within borisjohnson‘s cabinet and indeed the cracks that we have seen surfacing, you know, just last week we had amber rudd resigning, saying that she didn't believe boris johnson resigning, saying that she didn't believe borisjohnson was going for a deal. here we have nicky morgan saying this and last week when people were asking her if people —— if she was going to leave the cabinet, she was saying she wanted to stay in the room, she wasn't ruling out quitting because she was a democrat. you heard how they're talking about it. she has been asked since being on your show and she was somewhat growing back from those comments, making the point that she doesn't support another referendum, although she is there talking about voting for remain if they were another referendum, and saying that her views have evolved over time and she sees a way out to a deal. but of course the borisjohnson, he is focused on getting a deal or living with no deal, he doesn't want a refer

and nicky morgan saying if that happened, she would vote remain.u are asked to vote again in a referendum, can you give me a very straight answer as to how you would vote? i would vote to remain. so, why are you in borisjohnson's cabinet? because i'm also a democrat andi cabinet? because i'm also a democrat and i think one of the fundamental tenets of our democracy is that when the public vote and over 30 million people voted in the eu referendum, there was a clear result, i know it asa there was a clear result, i know it as a result that many people don't like, it is not a result i was co mforta ble like, it is not a result i was comfortable with but i have accepted it and comfortable with but i have accepted itandi comfortable with but i have accepted it and i think it is important that when there is a result, whether referendum or an election, that mps parliament fulfil that mandate. 0therwise, what we are getting is people saying i will never vote again, there is no vote because you people in westminster do not listen to what we want. quite an

someone might look at someone like nicky morgan who obviously is fairly strong in her views and wentnment as culture secretary. yes, she is. and she will be asked, will you follow? it will become... that doesn't help, does it? i think that the prime minister believed he was going to be able to show leadership and strength of character and he is going to be pushing through, but there seems to be collateral damage at every turn along the way and one knows not where we're going to end up this next week. very quickly, talking about people leaving, one of her former colleagues, matt hancock, health and social care department, he has said into tweets that the latter one, gutted to see amberley but hope other one nation tories will stay and fight for the values that we share. which therefore implies that there isa which therefore implies that there is a genuine concern that people will follow her at the door. lam sure will follow her at the door. i am sure they do and have been other misjudgments, not least of all about the labour party was not they took the view that if they went for an ea

caution from senior members, including nicky morgan, the culture minister who said we need to remind everything says on those watching us and borisjohnson actually has a meeting later this morning with his conservative backbench mps and a lot seemed fully behind him last night it will be interesting to see if people will raise concerns about his language. lots of questions yesterday as before pmq lots of questions yesterday as before pmo ‘s about is going to be a motion of no—confidence, are we going to see a election, what will happen with brexit. what is next? going to see a election, what will happen with brexit. what is next7m was a slightly difficult question to answer. “— was a slightly difficult question to answer. —— always. we will see an effort by the conservative government in parliament to have a brief recess running until the end of today till thursday next week to allow for the conservative party conference to take place. opposition party members i have spoken to do not seem particularly happy with that. but it is taking place in manchester. a vote of no confidence has
