May to invite Labour to help create policies amid Tory plot to oust her [View all]
---snip---
Theresa May will move to bolster her precarious position in Downing Street with an unprecedented invitation to Labour to help her create policies for a post-Brexit Britain as she attempts to quell a Tory plot to replace her.
Speaking on the anniversary of her first week in Downing Street and amid talk of a Conservative bid to oust her before the end of the year, the prime minister will on Monday seek to draw a line under a disastrous election result that saw her government lose its majority.
May will argue that her “commitment to change Britain is undimmed” and echo her speech from outside No 10 a year ago, pledging to tackle injustice and inequality as she launches a report on unfair employment practices by former Labour adviser Matthew Taylor.
The speech, which will be seen as an attempt to relaunch her faltering premiership, will then make an unusual plea for cross-party working, challenging MPs across the spectrum to “come forward with your own views and ideas about how we can tackle these challenges as a country”.

I can't work out what to make of this - "it's a trap", it's an exaggeration by No. 10 spin-doctors, The Guardian is making a mountain out of a molehill, or is she really so desperate that she's publicly asking for Labour help to save her job?
