LONDON • British Prime Minister Theresa May yesterday urged main opposition Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn to work with her to break the Brexit deadlock, telling him:"Let's do a deal."

"To the leader of the opposition, I say this: Let's listen to what the voters said in the elections and put our differences aside for a moment. Let's do a deal," she wrote in The Mail on Sunday newspaper. "The government has been in talks with the opposition to try to find a unified, cross-party position," Mrs May said."Many of my colleagues find this decision uncomfortable. Frankly, it is not what I wanted, either. But we have to find a way to break the deadlock - and I believe the results of the local elections give fresh urgency to this.

The Sunday Times newspaper claimed that the government was prepared to give way to Labour in three areas: Customs, goods alignment and workers' rights.
