The MPs say they will cancel their coup as soon as Mrs May clarifies her Number 10 exit plan.

They insist they will not rebel against the Prime Minister if she agrees to indicate that she will step aside and leave Number 10 before the next election.

“It does nothing to help her position when aides brief that she intends to stay on to fight the 2022 election."
