Tories say Theresa May will spilt the party if she strikes a deal with Labour, while Labour MPs say talks are going nowhere.
"More fundamentally, you would have lost the loyal middle of the Conservative Party, split our party and with likely nothing to show for it.
Downing Street sources said the Cabinet would hold a"substantial discussion" on whether to abandon the cross-party talks and many MPs are predicting they will be called off.A statement issued after the latest meeting, which took place hidden away from journalists and TV cameras in a basement in the Houses of Parliament, suggested the talks had come to an end.
In a 90-minute confrontation that was at times heated, the Labour leader also came under attack from pro-Remain MPs demanding a firmer commitment to the party's policy of supporting a second Brexit referendum. Referendum campaigner Stephen Doughty told the Labour leader:"Why is the Brexit Party surging? Because they've got a clear message...We have four sets of adverts, they have 36 ad streams.""I don't want to be in a position where our members don't understand what we are saying, where our voters don't understand what we are saying.
