New Brexit talks deadline delays PM May’s departure – The UK Times

An article carried by the UK daily, the Sun, reports that Sir Graham, Chairman of the 1922 Committee of Conservative backbenchers, yesterday, had given her until the start of the 1922 meeting at 4pm (local time) today to set out her own departure from Downing Street.

Key Details:

“Under a scenario discussed by the 1922 Committee last month, Mrs May will stand down as leader after the May 23 election but stay on as Prime Minister.

If Mrs May refuses to set out her own exit plans then the committee would attempt to set out their own for her departure."

However, the UK Times contradicted on Wednesday, noting that “Theresa May is poised to remain in office until the Conservative conference this September after setting a new summer deadline to complete Brexit talks.”
