Brexit Talks May Not Begin On June 19

The Prime Minister is facing a hard meeting of the backbench 1922 Committee later on Monday after losing her Commons majority in last week's election.

Interviewer Piers Morgan interjected, saying: 'Why would she be fine?

"She said she will serve us as long as we want her".

Currently, the Tories and the DUP are considering a "confidence and supply" arrangement which would see the DUP back the Government to get its Budget through and on confidence motions.

Brexit Secretary David Davis has dismissed questions over Theresa May's leadership as "unbelievably self indulgent" as he sought to move the conversation to leaving the European Union, after a bruising election result.

"The interpretation that we have put on it.is that people voted for three things in essence, control of borders, control of laws, control of money", Davis told BBC radio.

He also said the government would still "walk away" with no deal if talks broke down on ending Britain's four-decade membership of the bloc. May came to lead her Conservative Party and the United Kingdom government after David Cameron resigned in the wake of the "Brexit" vote last June.

"In truth, no-one expected the outcome of the snap general election to be a hung Parliament, and for the DUP to be in such an influential position", she said. Writing in the mass-circulation Sun newspaper, Johnson stressed that the Conservatives won more votes than at any time since Margaret Thatcher and are still the largest party in Parliament. Gove, a long-time opponent who was dismissed when May became prime minister a year ago, will now serve as environment secretary.

The Evening Standard edited by Tory former chancellor George Osborne, and the Daily Telegraph, have reported that Cabinet ministers have initiated talks with Labour MPs to secure cross-party backing for a softer Brexit.

May was advised that she would achieve a landslide victory, one that would strengthen her hand during the Brexit negotiations and potentially one that would destroy the Labour party for decades.

May tried to reassert her shattered authority at the weekend by announcing her new cabinet - with no changes among her top team.

May also restored former Justice Secretary Michael Gove to the Cabinet in another move created to show she was willing to listen to critics.

In negotiations with Mrs May and her team, the DUP delegation will also be acutely aware of the impact that any agreement may have on trade between Northern Ireland and the Republic, which is now thriving. "Number one, it's possible - we have worked up that alternative in some detail and we're still working on it, not because we want to but, in government you have to, if you're responsible, work up every contingency".

Divisive senior advisers who quit after running Theresa May's disastrous election campaign are in line for payouts of around £35,000 each.

DUP leader Arlene Foster has said she will meet May on Tuesday while Downing Street said the incumbent premier would "finalize" a deal in the coming week.

He stressed he did not share their ultra-conservative views on issues such as abortion and homosexuality, which have caused disquiet among many Conservatives.

Some involved in the Irish peace process are alarmed at any alliance between Prime Minister Theresa May's Conservatives and the DUP because the Good Friday peace accords call for the British government to be neutral in the politics of Northern Ireland.

London's neutrality is key to the delicate balance of power in Northern Ireland, which was once plagued by violence over Britain's control of the province.

May wants to negotiate the divorce and the future trading relationship with the European Union before Britain leaves in March 2019, followed by what she calls a phased implementation process to give business time to prepare for the impact of the divorce.
