Brexit disarray returns: Labour declares talks dead as May's premiership fades

LONDON - Britain’s tumultuous divorce from the European Union was again in disarray on Friday as the opposition Labour Party declared last-ditch cross-party talks dead as Prime Minister Theresa May’s premiership crumbled.

Brexit talks between May’s Conservative Party and Labour collapsed hours after May agreed on Thursday to set out a timetable for her departure in early June. “Even more crucially, the increasing weakness and instability of your government means there cannot be confidence in securing whatever might be agreed between us,” Corbyn said.The divorce deal, which May agreed last year with the EU, has already been rejected three times by a deeply divided parliament.May’s hands have been tied, knowing that to make concessions to Labour would lead to fury in her divided party.

The winner of a leadership contest will automatically become prime minister and will take control of the Brexit process, which has plunged Britain into its worst political crisis since World War Two.
