Even Theresa May's husband "wants her to exit" as pressure mounts on the embattled PM, it is reported today.

The claim comes as the Tory leader faces a fresh bid by her MPs to oust her over months of delays to Brexit .

MPs will meet once again this week to discuss scrapping rules that ban a leadership challenge before December.

Today saw fresh calls for the PM to go and polls showing a collapse in support to the Brexit Party – while MPs including Liz Truss set out their stall for the leadership.

Mrs May has promised to leave office, but only once MPs have passed a Withdrawal Agreement from the EU.

Now a friend of Mrs May's husband, Philip, has told the Sunday Times he now has his eye cast on her exit as well.

The friend said: "He loves her dearly, and he wants her to exit decently."

A minister told the newspaper: "He's had a bloody awful time.

"We all have tough times in politics and it's worse for our spouses, but it's a bagatelle by comparison to what he's been through."

Downing Street declined to comment.
