The Prime Minister urged her senior team to 'stand together' as she braced for a frantic 48 hours battling to get negotiations with the EU back on track. After dramatically pulling the plug on a fledgling divorce agreement on Sunday, Mrs May has been ringing round fellow leaders to appeal for a shift in their position. Tomorrow night she will make a make-or-break pitch to EU counterparts at a summit in Brussels - with council president Donald Tusk warning that a chaotic no-deal Brexit is now 'more likely than ever before'. German minister Michael Roth said this morning that Mrs May needed to 'take responsibility' for the talks. In signs that concerns are growing within the Cabinet, around a third of the ministers met over pizza in Commons Leader Andrea Leadsom's office last night to consider the state of play. Four senior figures including Mrs Leadsom are thought to be ready to resign if the PM goes too far in concessions to the EU. But after a Cabinet meeting lasting almost three hours, the prospect of people quitting appeared to have been staved off. According to Downing Street, Mrs May told ministers that progress was being made in talks. ‘I’m convinced that if we as a government stand together and stand firm we can achieve this,’ she said.
