Over one hundred Conservative MPs say they will back Theresa May as party leader, as the British Prime Minister faces a vote of no confidence Wednesday.
Earlier the Prime Minister said she would contest the leadership challenge with everything she's got. If she looses the vote, she will need to resign as Prime Minister.
The vote was triggered after 48 Conservative MPs submitted letters of no confidence in her leadership. The Conservative Party remains deeply divided over Brexit with many fiercely opposed to her proposed Brexit deal which has been approved by the European Union.
The main issue of contention issue is how to solve the border issue between Northern Ireland and EU member Ireland.
Theresa May needs a simple majority of the 315 Conservative MPs to vote in favour of her to win the contest.
Olly Barratt says the party remains deeply divided.
