'The last thing we want is a general election,' says Sajid Javid

Home secretary dismisses newspaper reports that Downing Street strategists were considering holding a snap general election on 6 June, if Theresa May cannot get her Brexit deal through parliament before the 29 March deadline. 'The last thing we want is a general election, the people will never forgive us for it,' Javid told the BBC’s Andrew Marr Show. 'They want politicians to get on with the job. They have been given a very clear mandate, now it’s our job to get on with it.'
