New photo May fights to find a cross-party Brexit plan after surviving confidence vote

Theresa May is fighting to find a cross-party Brexit plan today - as Jeremy Corbyn was accused of 'playing politics' by snubbing her offer of talks.

The Prime Minister held out an olive branch to political rivals last night after surviving a Labour bid to oust her, urging them to come to the table and help break the Parliamentary deadlock. 

She has already met the Lib Dems, SNP and Plaid Cymru, and will see the sole Green MP, Caroline Lucas this morning.

But Mr Corbyn caused fury by flatly rejecting the overture, insisting that he would not talk until the government rules out leaving the EU without a deal.

Allies of the Labour leader boasted today that his tactics mean Mrs May will have to split the Tory party if she wants to get a Brexit package through the Commons.

But Tory and Opposition MPs pointed out that Mr Corbyn was willing to 'sit down with terrorists' without any preconditions - insisting his only aim was to seize power whatever the consequences for the country.   

Tony Blair also waded in this morning by saying 'of course' Mr Corbyn should accept the premier's invitation at a 'moment of crisis'.

Mr Corbyn - who underline his intentions by delivering a Brexit speech in the marginal constituency of Hastings this morning - saw his latest bid to force an election spectacularly backfire in the Commons last night. 

A no-confidence motion tabled by Labour was defeated by 325 votes to 306 - with the victory margin of 19 significantly larger than Mrs May's effective majority of 13. 

The PM's position was secured by the DUP and Tory Brexiteers coming back into the fold despite dealing her a vicious humiliation by defeating her EU deal the night before. 

Speaking outside Number 10 late last night, Mrs May said: 'I understand that to people getting on with their lives, away from Westminster, the events of the past 24 hours will have been unsettling.

'Overwhelmingly, the British people want us to get on with delivering Brexit, and also address the other important issues they care about.

'But the deal which I have worked to agree with the European Union was rejected by MPs, and by a large margin. I believe it is my duty to deliver on the British people's instruction to leave the EU. And I intend to do so.' 

There are serious questions over whether  

Immediately after her victory in the confidence vote was declared last night, Mrs May invited the other party leaders to join talks. 

But in an extraordinary snub Mr Corbyn immediately refused, saying he would only join discussions if Mrs May ruled out no deal. 

Tory and Labour MPs voiced anger that the veteran left-winger was willing to 'sit down with terrorists' without conditions, but would not meet the leader of the UK to resolve the biggest crisis facing the country.

Mrs May said she had held 'constructive' meetings with the leaders of the Lib Dems, SNP and Plaid Cymru. 

'I am disappointed that the leader of the Labour Party has not so far chosen to take part, but our door remains open,' she added. 

MPs lashed the Labour leader - accusing him of sitting down with terrorists but rebuffing the leader of the United Kingdom at a time of national crisis. 

In 1984, Corbyn invited Linda Quigley and Gerard McLoughlin for tea in Parliament - both were convicted of IRA terrorism.

Tory MP James Heappey retorted: 'Jeremy Corbyn has sat down with terrorists around the world apparently in pursuit of and always without preconditions. 

'But will he sit down with the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom to tackle biggest constitutional challenge of our time without preconditions? Errr, no.' 

Labour MP Chris Leslie also attacked him, telling MailOnline: 'Every opportunity to influence Brexit policy ought to be taken - surely we should be taking the chance to see the Prime Minister, even if all we get is time to persuade her of the merits of a People’s Vote?' 

Tory minister Guy Opperman told CNN: 'I’d like Labour to stop playing politics, get round the table, and identify specifically what in the withdrawal agreement and the political agreement they manifestly disagree with, because until they spell out their position – and the other parties, but the main one is Labour – we don't know where the common ground it.'

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
