UK Brady predicts PM May to win leadership challenge, but 48 threshold not even met yet

As confirmed by Graham Brady, chair of the 1922 Committee, the number of requests for no-confidence vote on Prime Minister Theresa May haven’t met the threshold of 48 yet. He added, “if a threshold were to be reached I would have to consult with the leader of the party the Prime Minister.” And he expected the “whole thing” to be an “expeditious process”, if it happens.

Also, Brady predicted even if there is a leadership challenge, May is going to win it. He said “it would be a simple majority, it would be very likely that the Prime Minister would win such a vote and if she did then there would be a 12-month period where this could not happen again, which would be a huge relief for me because people would have to stop asking me questions about numbers of letters for at least 12 months.”

However, Brady is also dissatisfied with the May’s Brexit deal and branded it as “tricky”. He predicted that “it certainly doesn’t look like the current agreement will get through [the Commons] unless either the agreement changes or the statement of the political declaration, the future relationship, gives considerably stronger grounds for optimism a bout the nature of the final deal.”
