It's been confirmed by the BBC that a no-confidence vote has been triggered in Theresa May as party leader.

A total of 48 Conservative MPs needed to submit letters to say they no longer supported her in order to launch a leadership challenge.

Councillors in Ross-on-Wye say they want the town's minor injuries unit reopened.

The Wye Valley NHS Trust decided to close the temporarily unit from 3 December, with staff transferring to Hereford County Hospital, but some people fear this will lead to a permanent closure.

The councillors have agreed to write to the trust and the local MP, to voice their concerns and ask for other solutions to the staff shortages at Hereford's accident and emergency unit.

Information supplied by the health trust shows about eight people a day use the Ross hospital, while the A&E in Hereford has recently had days with more than 200 people attending.

The north Shropshire Conservative MP Owen Paterson is adding to the calls for Theresa May to step down as prime minister, saying her "mistakes have eroded trust in the government".

There is no confirmation, but sources, including a cabinet minister, have said they believe 48 letters have been sent - enough to trigger a no-confidence vote in Mrs May as party leader.

Mr Paterson, a former Environment Secretary, wrote in his open letter, published by the Daily Telegraph, external, that Mrs May had failed to prepare for a no-deal Brexit, tried to bounce her ministers into supporting her and approached negotiations like a "feeble and unworthy" supplicant.

Downing Street sources are playing down an imminent move and say they have had no contact from the senior backbencher who receives the letters.
