The Prime Minister is bracing for a showdown with her ministers after officials in Brussels reportedly firmed up a text overnight. Amid mounting signs of a breakthrough, Cabinet ministers are expecting to be recalled to consider the package within hours. The movement comes as the clock runs down on a deadline for triggering a crunch EU summit that could approve a divorce package this month. Ministers signing off on the deal tomorrow or even Thursday morning could squeeze inside that timescale - although the former is considered more likely. At a 45-minute Cabinet meeting this morning, Mrs May said there were only a few issues to be finalised and UK officials were pushing for the 'best text that can be negotiated'. Sources said agreement was 'undoubtedly closer than yesterday'. Boris Johnson tore into 'stage managed delays' to the Brexit process today, saying people should not be 'fooled by this theatre' and a 'surrender' by the government is imminent.
