The party's Brexit secretary criticised the agreement and said Labour could not back the deal during a vote in parliament.

Ms May revealed that her cabinet had reached a collective decision on the draft Brexit deal that had been struck by negotiators this week.

Following a lengthy cabinet meeting in which a number of senior ministers criticised the deal, Ms May met with DUP leader Arlene Foster and then Jeremy Corbyn.

Now, Labour's Brexit secretary has confirmed that the party would be voting against Ms May's agreement.

Sir Keir said the deal was "not good enough for manufacturing and services" and also did not have the necessary safeguards to protect rights.

"We said we would judge the deal once we had seen it. We have now read and analysed the 500 or so pages. It is a miserable failure of negotiation,” Sir Keir said on Sky News.

“There is huge detail on issues like the backstop that the government says it does not intend to use and on then on the question on what you intend to use and the future relationship there is seven pages.

“…We will vote against this deal because it does not meet our tests. I don’t think anybody would sign up to a document without knowing where it was heading.”

Sir Keir added that he believed the agreement would make striking future trade deals more difficult.

One possible post-Brexit immigration scheme could struggle to channel workers towards less attractive roles - while another may heighten the risk of labour exploitation, a new report warns. PA The biggest issues facing UK on leaving EU Customs union A key point in the negotiations remains Britain's access to, or withdrawal from, the EU customs union. Since the referendum there has been hot debate over the meaning of Brexit: would it entail a full withdrawal from the existing agreement, known as hard Brexit, or the soft version in which we would remain part of a common customs area for most goods, as Turkey does? No 10 has so far insisted that “Brexit means Brexit” and that Britain will be leaving the customs union, but may be inclined to change its position once the potential risks to the UK’s economic outlook become clearer.

To ensure borderless travel on the island, the countries must be in regulatory alignment and therefore adhere to the same rules as the customs union. In December, the Conservative Party’s coalition partners, the DUP, refused a draft agreement that would place the UK/EU border in the Irish Sea due to its potential to undermine the union. May has promised that would not be the case and has suggested that a “specific solution” would need to be found.

The talks, however, have reached an impasse. Though May has agreed that the UK will continue to contribute to the EU budget until 2021, the PM wants to be able to select which laws made during this time the UK will have to adhere to. Chief negotiator Michel Barnier has said the UK must adopt all of the laws passed during the transition, without any input from British ministers or MEPs.

May insists that those who arrive during the transition period should not be allowed to stay, whereas the EU believe the cut-off point should be later.

Infighting within the Cabinet has prevented a solid position from being reached, with some MPs content that "no deal is better than a bad deal" while others rally behind single market access. The EU has already confirmed that access to the single market would be impossible without the UK remaining in the customs union.

However the UK cannot make trade agreements with another country while it is still a member of the EU, and the potential loss of trade with the world's major powers is a source of anxiety for the PM. The EU has said the UK cannot secure trade deals during the transition period.

The comments come as it was announced that MPs could be given the opportunity to table amendments on the governments' motion.

Sources who spoke with Ms May suggested they believed that ministers were heading towards agreeing that MPs will be able to vote on amendments before voting on the deal itself.
