Theresa May tells Cabinet to UNITE on Brexit ahead of Florence speech
THERESA May will send an uncompromising rallying cry to ministers tomorrow to unite around her plan for Brexit, Downing Street sources disclosed. A senior Downing Street source said: “She values the contribution of people from across the Cabinet. “This is a significant moment. We are confident the Cabinet is moving forward in the same direction.” Holding a full Cabinet meeting on a Thursday is unusual for Mrs May – a sign, aides say, of the importance of her speech on Friday. It follows speculation that a Cabinet split over the details of Mrs May’s plan has engulfed Tories at Westminster in recent days. Some ministers, including Mr Johnson, are understood to be concerned that an EU departure deal could still leave us with close ties to the bloc – including an obligation to pay billions for access to the single market. Some Tory insiders have suggested the Foreign Secretary could quit the Government within days because of fears that the promises of last year’s Leave campaign in the run-up to the EU referendum could be betrayed. Some Tory MPs have suggested he should be sacked for defying Mrs May by publishing his own vision for Brexit in a 4,000-article at the weekend. But a No10 spokesman insisted: “He is doing a good job. They are all pulling in the same direction.”
Yesterday Mr Johnson denied wanting to quit, joking the Government was “a nest of singing birds”. He brushed aside speculation about his future when he unexpectedly met TV crews in a hotel lift in New York. Mr Johnson – in the city to attend the UN General Assembly ing jog. Asked directly if he would resign, he replied: “No.” Mrs May, who was also at the UN yesterday, insisted: “The Cabinet is absolutely clear about the destination we are aiming for in relation to our European negotiations.” Asked what she wanted Mr Johnson to do, she said: “What I want the Government to do is what the Government is doing – Boris, and others, are all very clear about the destination we have as a country.” Asked if Mr Johnson should be sacked she replied: “Boris is doing good work. He has been doing that here at the United Nations.” Senior Tory backbencher Jacob Rees-Mogg said Mr Johnson’s article was “very important” because it provided the “positive vision of Brexit”. He suggested the Foreign Secretary should be given “a knighthood or maybe a dukedom”, not the sack. He added: “Boris Johnson has been the leading Leave campaigner and he has a commission in his pocket to deliver Brexit. “He was putting some positivity to Government policy which was in danger of being bogged down.”. 00FastNews.
