The Morecambe and Lunesdale MP says he backed Boris Johnson as the Prime Minister won a vote of confidence.
Mr Johnson won the ballot within the Conservative Party, despite 148 of his own MPs voting that they no longer had confidence in him as leader of the party.
The result was announced by chairman of the 1922 Committee Sir Graham Brady.
Speaking before the vote was announced, David Morris said the PM continues to enjoy his support.
‘’My opinion of the Prime Minister has not changed’’, said Mr Morris.
‘’I will be supporting the Prime Minister in this evening's vote.’’
Last week, he told the BBC’s Politics North West that ‘people were sick of partygate.’
‘’It’s time for people to move on’’, he told the programme.
‘’The prime minister had made an apology over eating cake two years ago. He still has my support, fully.’’
Our other local MP, Lancaster’s Cat Smith, from Labour, has yet to publicly comment on the result.
