May ‘only pretending to negotiate’ with the EU, Corbyn charges
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn speaks during Prime Minister's Questions, today

JEREMY CORBYN criticised Theresa May over her lack of Brexit negotiating tactics at Prime Minister’s Questions today ahead of her return to Brussels.

The Labour leader urged her to detail what she would be proposing to European Union officials with only 37 days to go until Britain’s EU withdrawal deadline.

He said that last week European Council president Donald Tusk had said that the PM and her Cabinet were “only pretending to negotiate and there was nothing on the table from the British side.”
