Boris Johnson is planning a series of ‘barbecues and drinks’ at Chequers for party loyalists to shore up support this summer.
Several barbecues have been lined up at the Prime Minister’s grace-and-favour residence as a reward for loyal supporters.
Insiders said the invitation list has been drawn up specifically to include MPs who publicly said they would vote for the Prime Minister in a confidence vote.
Mr Johnson’s ‘summer sausage offensive’ is planned as several events in the second half of July, insiders said.
It comes after a bruising few weeks for the Prime Minister, which have included 148 of his MPs voting that they have no confidence in his leadership, the publication of Sue Gray’s report into lockdown breaking in Downing Street and by-election losses in Wakefield and Tiverton and Honiton.
