British opposition Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn confirmed on Thursday he would only hold talks with Prime Minister Theresa May about Brexit if she ruled out a no-deal exit.
"She seems to be prepared to send the country hurtling towards a cliff edge," Corbyn said in a speech in the southern English coastal town of Hastings. "To get a deal that can command a majority in parliament, Theresa May has to ditch the red lines and get serious about proposals for the future."
He added: "The government confirmed that she would not take no-deal off the table. So I say to the prime minister again: I am quite happy to talk, but the starting point for any talks about Brexit must be that the threat of a disastrous no-deal outcome is ruled out, taken off the table."
