sam gyimah. many mps would say, we have always been quite comfortable with no deal.efrain we hear. yes, i do think particularly supporters of borisjohnson think you absolutely have to keep no deal on the table. to be fair to borisjohnson and jeremy hunt, whilstjeremy hunt has ruled out the idea of suspending or proroguing parliament, borisjohnson has said he is strongly not attracted to the idea and doesn't think it will happen but you need to keep it on the table, as you do no deal, in order to get the best kind of deal in a renegotiation out of brussels. one of those backing borisjohnson is another former leadership contender dominic raab, who, also speaking to sophy ridge, seems to slightly discourage the idea in terms of mps using some form of legislation to block a no—deal brexit. what happened is that we, the politicians and mps, gave to the british people the decision on this. and i don't think it's right through all the shenanigans and devices and ruses that have been conjured up, that that decision, which has been made by the british people, is somehow stole

what sam gyimah is referring to, is something that parliament has previously said it would do, and hasith no deal. it has been pointed out many times that they're one thing there isa times that they're one thing there is a majority for when it comes to brexit and parliament is that mps do not want to see a no deal. what we have at the moment is a conservative leadership contest going on where both candidates, borisjohnson and jeremy hunt, although they use slightly different language and have slightly different language and have slightly different language and have slightly different deadlines, both say they want to keep no deal on the table so that has led to a lot of speculation about some in the conservative party, whether there area conservative party, whether there are a group of tory mps who will work with opposition parties to try to use some sort of legislative mechanism to block no deal and stop a prime minister potentially suspending parliament in order to see that through. sam gyimah speaking on the sophy ridge programme on sky news today has said he thinks there are around

but the former leadership candidate — sam gyimah — who backs another referendum — says up to 30 conservativeto block a no—deal brexit. there are a lot of mps on the conservative side. how many do you think? i think there is a significant number that will use legislative options to do two things. is that less than ten? more like 30? i think about 30, 30 plus. they‘ll be looking to stop the new prime ministerfrom proroguing parliament in order to deliver a no deal but also to create options for the new prime minister so that no deal is not the only option we face. another former leadership candidate, dominic raab, who is backing borisjohnson to become prime minister said conservative mps must stick to the party‘s commitment on delivering brexit by the end of october. i think the issue is we want brussels to have a very clear understanding and clear message that we will leave at the end of october come what may. that is the way we give ourselves the best shot of getting a deal which i think in fairness, most of us want. if you ta ke wto fairness, most of us want. if you take wto brexit and walk
