Owen Paterson MP - Former Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, UK

Stephen Sackur talks to Owen Paterson, a Conservative MP and former minister intent on rejecting prime minister Theresa May's Brexit.

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, the UK will plunge headlong into political chaos. The stakes could hardly be higher for Stephen Sackur's guest 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?
