ISLE of Wight MP Bob Seely has announced his support for the Prime Minister ahead of this evening's vote of no confidence.
A vote of no confidence in Theresa May's leadership was called after the required 48 letters calling for a contest were delivered.
Conservative MPs will vote between 6pm 8pm this evening (Wednesday).
Speaking to the County Press, Isle of Wight Conservative MP Bob Seely said: "I will be supporting her absolutely.
"Now is not the time for a leadership election. We need to be much more clear headed.
"We need to get a workable Brexit through and then get back to the business of governing."
Mr Seely added on Twitter: "Strongly suspect that @10DowningStreet will win tonight. Vote timing ill-thought out. Colleagues need to be more clear-headed please.
"This helps neither unity nor Brexit. At this rate we're driving towards a Judy Garland Brexit - i.e. one that's already Somewhere Over The Rainbow."
