David Cameron is due to address Conservative backbenchers for the first time since winning a majority, as he continues to appoint his new cabinet. He retains Iain Duncan Smith as Work and Pensions Secretary, while Baroness Stowell remains leader of the Lords. The PM revealed he has already spoken to European leaders about renegotiating Britain's relationship with the EU, ahead of his planned in/out referendum. A senior backbencher said ministers should be free to back a UK exit. Graham Brady, who chairs the 1922 Committee, said Mr Cameron should allow "freedom of expression" to avoid tension within the party.
