Theresa May pulled the bizarre move during a one-on-one meeting with the Labour MP at her office in Number 10. The Prime Minister has been conducting cross-party talks with the Opposition to try to break the deadlock in Parliament over her proposed withdrawal agreement with the European Union. Dr Huq made the shocking revelation as she discussed the development of the Brexit talks with the British Government: "There was some bizarre meeting we had.

"It was a bit like the exchanges we have in the House but a bit more friendly. The first question I asked her was ‘what red lines have changed, Prime Minister?’ "And she kind of raised her eyes to heaven and then banged her head on the desk. I had never seen that before." She added: "I don’t think you would have had that at the dispatch box for sure." EU Chief negotiator Michel Barnier has hinted at a breakthrough in the talks, suggesting the confrontation could result in a softer Brexit than the one officially advocated by the Tory Party.

Brexit news: Dr Huq revealed May

Mr Barnier stressed the cross-party negotiations could not change the 600-page withdrawal deal negotiated between the bloc and the British government: "This week will be very important. We will have the results of negotiations between the Labour Party and the Theresa May's government. Are these talks going to yield something? “The two parties agree that the deal we have is the only one possible. The deal we have reached is non-negotiable. “Mrs May agrees, so too Jeremy Corbyn. What we could negotiate and improve, is the political declaration that defines our future relationship with Britain.” Downing Street’s official spokesman James Slack confirmed talks between the Government and the Labour Party over Brexit will resume on Monday. But, despite being on their fifth week of meetings, Labours and Tories still have to find a “way forward” on how to reach a compromise Brexit deal.
