Corbyn said if May had confidence in her deal, she should "call that election and let the people decide." "Clearly, Labour does not have enough MPs in parliament to win a confidence vote on its own. "Moving into office at a period right up against the clock, there would need to be time for that negotiation," Corbyn said. Corbyn has been lukewarm in his support of a second vote on Britain's membership of the EU. "If a general election cannot be secured then we will keep all options on the table, including the option of campaigning for a public vote," he said on Thursday.
