UK Prime Minister Theresa May's senior ministers are meeting to discuss Brexit amid a row which has led to speculation over her leadership.
Brexit Secretary David Davis is reportedly considering resigning over Mrs May's plans for a 'backstop' to avoid a hard Irish border.

Theresa May had been hoping to have an agreement in place with her cabinet ahead of a meeting of Eu leaders later this month.
James McGrory of Open Britain - which campaigns against a so-called 'hard Brexit' - says David Davis needs to make his position clear.
