Between 20 and 30 MPs are now ready to put their careers on the line to deliver Brexit should Johnson "get any sort of movement" from Brussels, the newspaper said bit.ly/2YEK5h2, citing a senior backbencher.
A backchannel between Downing Street and opposition backbenchers is being coordinated by the Labour MP John Mann, the Telegraph said.
