[QUOTE="Sarah, post: 156717, member: 6"] [URL]https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-47725529[/URL] Theresa May has promised Tory MPs she will stand down if they back her EU withdrawal deal. The PM said she would not stay in power for the next phase of Brexit talks on the future trading relationship, at a meeting of the 1922 committee. But she did not set a firm departure date, according to Tory MPs who were at the meeting. It comes as MPs seize control of the Commons agenda to hold votes on alternatives to the deal. Speaking after the 1922 committee meeting, Tory MP James Cartlidge said: "My recollection is that she said she would not remain in post for the next phase of the negotiations, the implication being that once the withdrawal agreement has passed, she would make way for someone else." Tory MP Simon Hart told the BBC's Nick Watt that Mrs May had said she would want to pass her Brexit withdrawal agreement and then set in motion process to replace her. Mrs May's critics don't want her to be still in charge for the next phase of Brexit talks, when the two sides hammer out what kind of trading relationship they will have - if her deal is passed by Parliament. The PM has said she wants to bring the deal back to the Commons this week, after it was previously rejected twice, by large margins. The BBC's Iain Watson said Mrs May received a "muted" reception from Conservative MPs as she arrived at the meeting. [/QUOTE]
