London: UK PM  is under intense pressure to abandon Brexit talks with the main opposition Labour Party, after a group of senior Conservative leaders issued a strongly worded warning. May’s cabinet, and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn’s shadow cabinet, are both due to take stock of the talks on Tuesday, with neither side optimistic about the prospects for an agreement that could secure a majority in parliament, the Guardian reported.

In a letter to May, former cabinet ministers cautioned her against any deal involving Corbyn’s central demand of a customs union.
