Is the prime minister's offer to Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn a trap?
Theresa May will hold Brexit talks with Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn on Wednesday afternoon.
have varied from fury among Conservative MPs to deep suspicion among Labour MPs that the offer is a trap.What could the compromise look like? The Labour party's demands are also unlikely to stop there. The party is committed to retaining close ties to the EU single market and alsothis week to remain inside it, which would mean Britain retaining freedom of movement with the EU. The party would likely compromise on the latter point given the deep misgivings among many Labour MPs in Leave-voting areas.
However, Labour suspicions that they are being set up for a fall are undoubtedly justified. May's statement last night suggested that she was still aiming to leave by May 22 — the original extended deadline offered by the EU if the UK Parliament passed a deal last week.
