Graham Brady visits May amid rumours MPs will only back her deal if she quits

Insiders believe she could be laying out a plan for her resignation in a last-ditch bid to get her Withdrawal Agreement approved.

Tory backbench leader Graham Brady was seen entering No 10 amid rumours Theresa May could quit in exchange for backing for her Brexit deal.

The chairman of the 1922 Committee was seen heading to Downing Street around lunchtime to meet with the prime minister.

Insiders believe she could be laying out a plan for her resignation in a last-ditch bid to get her Withdrawal Agreement approved.

Conservative Party MP Graham Brady, chair of the Conservative 1922 Committee of backbench MPs, leaves Downing Street in London on March 18, 2019. - Britain's government cannot submit its Brexit deal for another vote in parliament if it is "the same" or "substantially the same" to the one already rejected by MPs, the House of Commons speaker said on Monday. "What the government cannot legitimately do is to re-submit to the House the same proposition or substantially the same proposition," John Bercow told parliament.

Several MPs who previously said they would vote against her Withdrawal Agreement have now said they will back May when it returns for a third ‘meaningful vote’.

Boris Johnson has already indicated that he would support the deal if May agrees to go.

Jacob Rees-Mogg has also suggested he could vote in support of the PM’s deal and said: ‘The choice seems to be Mrs May’s deal or no Brexit. The prime minister will not deliver a no deal Brexit.

‘I have always thought that no deal is better than Mrs May’s deal, but Mrs May deal is better than not leaving at all.’

Backbench MP Tim Loughton also said today: ‘If she gets her deal through, we need somebody else controlling the process.’

May must pass her deal by the end of the week for Britain to leave the EU on May 22.

If her deal is not approved, MPs have until April 12 to deliver a new Brexit proposal.

MPs will take part in a series of paper ballots on Wednesday in a bid to work out what kind of Brexit has a chance of winning the support of the House of Commons.

They must put forward their preferred options by the end of today, with Commons speaker John Bercow selecting those to be put to a series of indicative yes-or-no votes of the course of half an hour tomorrow evening.

Further debate and votes on the most popular alternatives will be staged on Monday to try to whittle the list down.

Shortly before the votes, May will face Tory MPs at a meeting of the backbench 1992 Committee as she battles to save her premiership and her Brexit deal.

It was unclear whether the Government would table May’s Withdrawal Agreement as one of the options for Wednesday night’s votes, when options on the table may include a no-deal departure, a Norway-style close relationship with the EU of halting Brexit by revoking the Article 50 process.

MPs will hold a non-binding debate non cancelling Brexit after an online petition amassed more than 5.7 million signatures on Tuesday.

The revoke Article 50 and remain in the EU petition is the most signed petition ever received on the government site.
