Conservative MPs are said to be working on a plot to call off the general election by replacing Rishi Sunak as Tory leader.

There is a plot underway before Parliament is dissolved next Thursday.

One rebel Tory MP has told GB News he believes "several" more letters of no confidence in Sunak have been submitted to 1922 chairman Sir Graham Brady.

Rishi Sunak announced the General Election will take place on July 4.

The MP told GB News: "Today has clearly been an absolute disaster but the election is NOT irrevocable; up until the point of the Dissolution of Parliament - when the writs are moved to begin the contests, it can still be aborted.

"In other words, if enough Tory MPs, who are clearly going to lose their seats in this already utterly shambolic campaign, write to Sir Graham Brady, tomorrow , the election could still be revoked."
