Not enough support to trigger no-confidence vote in Cabinet - PM May
- Country:
- United Kingdom
British Prime Minister Theresa May said on Sunday that as far as she was aware, a formal challenge to her leadership had not yet gained enough support to trigger a confidence vote.
"As far as I know, no, it has not," May told Sky News when asked if the threshold had been met for a formal leadership contest.
To trigger a contest, 48 lawmakers from her Conservative Party must submit a letter to the chairman of the committee in charge of leadership contests.
