THE First Minister would be "surprised and very disappointed" if the Labour Party agree to Theresa May's Brexit deal.
Nicola Sturgeon took to Twitter after meeting with Jeremy Corbyn earlier to express her concern over the talks planned between him and the Prime Minister later today.
Just had a positive meeting with @jeremycorbyn - I’d be surprised and very disappointed if Labour sold out for such a bad deal. https://t.co/RIKkqYyq7a
— Nicola Sturgeon (@NicolaSturgeon) April 3, 2019
Earlier, Sturgeon warned Corbyn to be "very, very wary" of reaching an agreement with the PM on the deal.

According to a tweet from Jason Groves, political editor of the Daily Mail, Corbyn and May's deal would include a customs union, "permanent alignment of workers' rights", watered-down Tory immigration plans, but an end to free movement.
The deal would also rule out the possibility of a second Brexit referendum, and ensure the UK would leave the European Union ahead of its Parliamentary elections next month.
Theresa May is due to meet both Nicola Sturgeon and Jeremy Corbyn for talks.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
