Jeremy Corbyn is to hold talks in Brussels in a bid to try to break the Brexit deadlock.
Ahead of the discussions with EU figures, the Labour leader called on Prime Minister Theresa May to abandon her Brexit "red lines" to secure a workable deal.
Mr Corbyn said he would use the meetings with EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier and others to stress a no-deal Brexit does not command a majority in Parliament.
The Labour leader said: "The Conservative Government is running down the clock in an attempt to blackmail Parliament into accepting Theresa May's bad deal over a chaotic no deal.
"We are saying loud and clear that there is no majority for no deal.
"Labour respects the result of the referendum, but we do not support the Prime Minister's damaging approach which is focused more on appeasing factions of her party than finding a sensible solution."
As well as Mr Barnier, the Labour leader will meet European Commission secretary general Martin Selmayr and European Parliament Brexit coordinator Guy Verhofstadt.
Mr Corbyn will be accompanied on the trip by shadow Brexit secretary Sir Keir Starmer.
