He added: "Rather than ploughing ahead and dangerously running down the clock, the Prime Minister needs to put her deal to a vote next week so Parliament can take back control."
Tom Brake, Brexit spokesman for the minority Liberal Democrats, said: "Having watched the Prime Minister's botched attempt to negotiate with EU leaders, people up and down the country will be more concerned by Brexit than ever before."
A 2ND REFERENDUM? AND POLITICAL STORM?
Meanwhile, former British prime minister Tony Blair, a strong supporter of Britain remaining in the EU, said in a speech Friday there would soon be a majority in the British parliament for a second referendum on EU membership.
Addressing a meeting at the Royal Academy in London, organised by the People's Vote Campaign, Blair said: "What has been revealed by the whole negotiation process is that all the Brexit options have significant drawbacks compared with staying in the EU. This pursuit of incompatible ends through inept means has led us to the present impasse."
Blair told the meeting: "My advice to her (May) is there's no point literally in carrying on banging your head against this brick wall. It's sensible to take your head off the brick wall and think creatively."
May survived a confidence vote among Conservative MPs this week by a vote of 200 to 117, but a second political storm could lie ahead.
Keir Starmer, chief Brexit spokesman for the Labour Party, said in media interviews Friday it was clear the Prime Minister would not secure any meaningful changes to her deal and that she should face the music and put her deal to a vote next week.
