Downing Street has been forced to deny reports that Theresa May could be planning for a general election in June as the prime minister has written an article in The Telegraph where she promised to ‘battle for Britain’ during talks with Brussels.
Downing Street advisers are said to have prepared up plans to extend Article 50 – the clause which triggered the UK’s withdrawal from the EU, then secure the backing of parliament for a new Brexit deal in April before calling a general election in June this year.
As we have reported both Sajid Javid & Jeremy Hunt have been seen to be pushing for more time and even Jacob Rees Mogg has said that Brexit could be delayed for a short period of time. His comments have caused much consternation from Brexit backers.
Sources quoted in the Mail on Sunday and the Sunday Times said the plan would protect the prime minister from being forced out of office by those who want a new leader to negotiate the second stage of the UK’s exit.
The vote could be held on the 6 June and supporters with a new opinion poll showing the Tories seven points ahead of the Labour party which would lead to a majority win for May.
Theresa May wrote in The Telegraph:
The clock is ticking, and negotiating the changes MPs want to see will not be easy. But if we stand together and speak with one voice, I believe we can find the right way forward.
I’m determined to deliver Brexit, and determined to deliver on time – on 29 March 2019. So let’s put aside our differences and focus on getting the deal over the line.
Brexit offers great opportunities for our country. It’s up to all of us at Westminster to make it work.”
