May's official spokesman told a regular media briefing that the government's position was that progress needed to be made urgently as it was vital to deliver on the result of the 2016 referendum when people voted to leave the EU by a 52-48 margin.
Corbyn responded: "There has got to be a change. We have a window of opportunity to bring about that change. I hope the government recognises that and makes the most of it."
Talks between the two parties took place Tuesday, led by Cabinet Office Minister David Lidington, while Labour's negotiating team was led by Shadow Brexit Secretary Keir Starmer and Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell.
If the British parliament fails to agree a Brexit deal quickly, Britain will have to take part in next month's European Parliament elections, even though the MEPs (Members of the European Parliament) elected would only serve in office until Britain leaves the bloc.
The latest potential candidate to announced she will be seeking a seat in the European Parliament is 53-year-old, Rachel Johnson, sister of former Foreign Secretary, and an ex-mayor of London, the Conservative Boris Johnson.
Meanwhile the fate of May's reign as Britain's prime minister dominated talk in the corridors of Westminster Tuesday.
Britain's media has widely reported that an increasing number of Conservative MPs want May to announce the date she will leave 10 Downing Street, with some saying they favour a date in early June.
