The Prime Minister was told she will have a plan forced on her if she doesn’t do it in the allotted time frame. Sir Graham Brady, the chairman of the 1922 committee, made the plans clear at a backbenchers meeting, according to the Daily Telegraph. Tensions were reportedly high after David Lidington confirmed Britain will be taking part in the European Parliament elections despite repeatedly saying they wouldn’t.
Mr Lidington told the Daily Telegraph: “It was regrettably not going to be possible to finish the Brexit process before the date that is legally due for European parliamentary elections.”
Mrs May's official spokesman added it was "a matter of deep regret to the Prime Minister that we have not been able to deliver Brexit on time".
Sir Graham has reportedly given the Prime Minister until 4pm this Wednesday to come up with a plan.
He had previously asked Mrs May to make plans in a meeting two weeks ago, the paper reported.
