Owen Paterson MP

Stephen Sackur talks to Owen Paterson, a Conservative MP and former Minister intent on rejecting Mrs. May's Brexit. Is it too late to avert a damaging national crisis?

Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May is facing a mutiny inside her own Conservative Party, which threatens to scupper her Brexit deal and quite possibly her premiership too. If she loses the key parliamentary vote on her deal in just a few days time, the UK will plunge headlong into political chaos. The stakes could hardly be higher for Stephen Sackur's guest on HARDtalk, Owen Paterson, a Conservative MP and former Minister intent on rejecting Mrs. May's Brexit. Is it too late to avert a damaging national crisis?
