After a tumultuous day in which her Commons leader resigned from the cabinet amid feverish speculation about her own future, Theresa May remains prime minister - for now.

As we bring the live page to a close, here is a summary of what happened today:

• Commons leader Andrea Leadsom quit the cabinet, saying she no longer believes the government's approach will deliver Brexit
• It followed a growing backlash against Theresa May's new Brexit plan from MPs within her own party
• As the pressure grew over the course of the day, several cabinet ministers told the Â鶹ԼÅÄ that the PM cannot stay, with one saying it is "the end of the line"
• But with speculation growing that Theresa May might resign, sources told the Â鶹ԼÅÄ that Chief Whip Julian Smith informed backbench Tory MPs that the PM was not standing down
• Mrs May looks set to spend tomorrow campaigning for the European Parliament elections before meeting Sir Graham Brady - the chairman of the backbench 1922 Committee - on Friday.

We now have a copy of the full letter sent by Theresa May to Andrea Leadsom following the Commons leader's resignation.

The PM thanks Mrs Leadsom for her work in government while disagreeing with her assessment of the government's position on Brexit.

Will there be any more resignations over the Withdrawal Agreement Bill?

The Telegraph's deputy political editor says there may not need to be because No 10 is now considering pulling the bill in view of the widespread opposition to it across the House of Commons.

The vote on it had been expected to happen on 7 June.

The pro-Remain Conservative MP Dominic Grieve has been speaking to the Â鶹ԼÅÄ about Andrea Leadsom's resignation.

He says some of his colleagues have been "living in a world of fantasy" when it comes to Brexit.

In a sign of unrest at the highest levels of the Tory party, a series of cabinet ministers asked for meetings with Mrs May today to raise their concerns about the Withdrawal Agreement Bill.

Downing Street sources told the Press Association it was possible that the PM could meet Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt on Thursday, but there was no confirmation that an audience would be granted for other ministers with reservations about the plan.

Â鶹ԼÅÄ Secretary Sajid Javid has asked for a meeting to discuss his concerns about the prospect of a second referendum, after Mrs May revealed she would grant MPs a vote on whether the Brexit deal should be put to the public.

Theresa May has experienced more cabinet resignations than any prime minister since the beginning of Margaret Thatcher's reign - and in a much shorter time.

With all of this drama in Westminster ongoing, it would be easy to forget about the little matter of the European elections.

As ITV political correspondent Paul Brand points out, the polls for the elections open in less than nine hours.

But the Â鶹ԼÅÄ's political editor responds to Mr Loughton, saying that it seems Theresa May, at least at first, did not inform her team of Mrs Leadsom's impending resignation.

The Conservative MP Tim Loughton has shed a little more light on the conversation Andrea Leadsom had with Theresa May, insisting it was "perfectly courteous".

There had been suggestion earlier from The Sun's political editor, Tom Newton-Dunn, that Mrs Leadsom had resigned without letting the PM know in advance - a fact he corrected in a later tweet.
