The six Brexiteers who could challenge Rishi Sunak
The TelegraphRishi Sunak has sealed a new Brexit deal aimed at easing trade friction in Northern Ireland after holding face-to-face talks with the European Commission president on Monday. However, the move to secure a deal carries risks for the Prime Minister, with Tory MPs having warned that they will revolt if European judges retain a say over Northern Ireland. Hours before Mr Sunak and Ms Von der Leyen announced their meeting, a member of the Eurosceptic wing of the Tory party warned that Parliament should not be rushed into accepting a deal. He said the issue was about “whose law was sovereign in Northern Ireland”, adding: “We need to get rid of EU law in Northern Ireland.” Here are six Brexiteers who could be set to challenge Mr Sunak in the coming days before a vote on the deal.
