5:11 pm
under the agreement so we're going to terminate it we're going to pull out both the united states and russia have long blamed each other of violating the treaty which banned the deployment of missiles that can reach a distance of five hundred to more than five thousand kilometers rush accuses the united states of deploying a missile defense system in eastern europe which could be used as an offensive weapon the u.s. as russia had developed a so-called no fate of nine seven two nine missile which its ass can reach an intermediate distance and therefore violates the treaty russia denies this in december last year russian president vladimir putin accused the us of looking for excuses so it can leave the treaty and put the blame on russia go by chance who's now eighty seven years old has called the u.s. plan to leave the treaty a mistake and told the russian news agency interfax that washington doesn't know

where this will lead to the russian deputy foreign minister says it's a varied. interest step germany has urged the u.s. to consider the consequences of its decision but the united kingdom's as it fully backs a u.s. withdrawal and blames moscow for endangering the treaty donald trump's national security advisor john bolton has arrived here in moscow and will pass the u.s. plan on to members of the russian government on monday you will most likely meet president vladimir putin later in the week moscow as sad that it's waiting for an explanation from bolton and hopes to set washington on the path of dialogue step fasten al-jazeera moscow. thousands of refugees and migrants are walking through mexico headed for the u.s. southern border they're part of a so-called caravan of people from honduras and salvador and guatemala well don trump is threatening to deploy troops if they don't turn back john home and met them along the road. whom the turn of the kilometer young and old men and

she doesn't there's not much interested in that campaign even if you knew about it there's not much she could have done about that he six months ago had a lesson twenty percent approval rating in the opinion since that seems just struck a chord in the field electorate disillusioned with a corrupt political establishment and rising crime they certainly think that they are on the roll and will win next sunday's election at the same time with still has not been this part of the rise of this divided for many many years. australia's prime minister has apologized to survivors of child sex abuse hundreds of people gathered outside parliament in camera to witness the address which was televised nationally it follows a five year inquiry which found tens of thousands of children have been abused in schools churches orphanages and other institutions over decades the government says a national tragedy has been exposed in victims of being compensated al-jazeera as

5:18 pm
abuse they had suffered or in some cases there were some murders that went along with all of it so they were and i don't see themselves out of all of us the apology was given by australia's new prime minister scott morrison but it was a previous prime minister julia gillard who set up this inquiry back in twenty twelve and the real applause was for her in parliament during the apologies now all those listening in the hundreds inside parliament house here where they've now come out and they're having lunch on the lawns behind me the prime minister is among them they really want this to be a line in the sand so that this apology marks the spot the time at which nothing like this could ever happen again. and let's take you through some of the headlines here and al-jazeera choose day is the deadline being sent by turkey's president to reveal all details of the turkish investigation into the killing of jamal khashoggi raja tiber the one and all trump agreed in a phone call and the need for clarity about what happened to the saudi journalist

5:21 pm
the process. and scribed of the wild west previously where the average past couldn't touch and tell if a post had been said on paper or in some way does this updated now have the kind of support that it needs we bring you the stories to the shaping the economic world we live in counting the cost on al-jazeera the u.k. is less than six months away from leaving the e.u. but without a deal nothing going to plan and even food and medicine shortages on the horizon was the whole brics it vote a colossal mistake that's our debate. those who pushed for brics it will quote never be forgotten nor forgiven the words of
5:22 pm
former british conservative prime minister john major on tuesday breaks it is less than six months away and the u.k. government is no closer to agreeing an exit deal with the e.u. despite another round of negotiations on wednesday a no deal breaks it might astonishingly result in food and medicine shortages in the u.k. so what's the vote a huge mistake and can it should it be undone joining me to debate this our lord adonis former labor cabinet minister under tony blair and the storage opponent of berkshire and returning to the show for the first time since the e.u. referendum campaign conservative. member of the european parliament and an evangelist for daniel had thank you both for joining me on upfront daniel your prime minister and party leader to reason may has often said bricks it means bricks it but what does bricks it mean to you what does it look like we don't seem to actually have a clue do we. well brooks it means becoming again a sovereign country so that we hire and fire the people who pass our laws and so
5:23 pm
the u.k. laura supreme on our own soil how you then negotiate your relations with the e.u. is there's a range of views on my own view is that having recovered our sovereignty we should have the closest relationship with the e.u. compatible with being an independent country e.u. is comprised of friends and allies of ours so from every point of view it is better to have a amicable core deal working relationship with the e.u. where we are if you like the friendliest country that is a nonmember blazing away for every other country that doesn't want to join if not and they want to show means you can get a deal if you leave the e.u. without getting a deal which looks increasingly likely you're ok with that you've just got to ask this question if any other potential trading partner had gone to the e.u. with the package to resume a was offering of salzburg if they canada or japan or any other potential trading partner would come along and said we will unilaterally accept all of your physical
5:24 pm
good standards and we will continue to protect your security and we promise to accept your rules on the environment and labor laws and we will pay you for the privilege the e.u. we know how they were directed to that they have said quick quick get them to sign before the idiots come to their senses so the fact that they're not prepared to do that makes me wonder whether there is any readiness to do a deal on their side and that's why i think it would be crazy not to prepare for an ideal scenario andrea don't want to respond. well what's interesting is that many of the brics does is now starting to blame the e.u. for the fact that we're great sitting because this is the problems that he's just described to do with rex itself he descried one vision of brics it but the one hundred and one other visions of brics it's the he has said now that what the prime minister is trying to negotiate which is leaving the customs union leaving the single market in the case setting up a very complex and difficult arrangement on islands. see that there isn't a border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland he has said that in
5:25 pm
his view that's unacceptable well that's one version of he doesn't like he's put forward one that he doesn't like the truth is two years ago when people voted in the referendum they were voting with a whole load of different options for what leave might mean now that the chickens are coming home to roost it's clear that it's not possible to deliver bricks it works what daniel is seeking to do is to write the history books and to blame the e.u. for its well what i'm seeking to do and those of us who are trying to hold the middle ground in the debates in england is is to do what i think is the right thing now which is to put these two back to the people and say look you clearly didn't vote for any of this you didn't vote to be poor you didn't vote for chaos you didn't vote for a government that's now talking about only six weeks of medical supplies and food stockpiling you didn't vote for hard border in ireland that could bring back the troubles and the return of paramilitary activity in northern ireland you didn't vote for any of these things so the right thing is a people's vote a second referendum end this nightmare and then we can go on with our lives without
5:26 pm
having to spend a lot out of her excess or one out of what do we make it best of three why should we accept an argument for another referendum from people who by definition do not accept referendum results i remember in the run up to the first one all of the people who are now demanding a second vote were loudest in insisting that that was the final decision that that never been over go john major nick clegg paddy ashdown what all on air on the record saying there's never going to be another go at this think about what you're doing and you don't you'll let me is what i'm going there vote that i know they were voted for and i do i did although i do want to get your argument there about you know where does it where you draw the line but you yourself having once referred to a second referendum movement as a doomsday cult not long ago have now are now saying quickly for i'm wrong that you're so opposed to the u.k. staying in a customs union which is the labor party wants you would prefer a second referendum even to that even you're open to the idea of an. the referendum as much as you're being snarky about it because i know that what what what what what what happened here is if that were to be the case we would have effectively
5:27 pm
had a group of m.p.'s and peers who had frustrated the referendum result who had deliberately gone for an unacceptable result it with the over same of overturning it so the biggest vote for anything in british history would have been overturned by our politicians but it's worth just spending a moment on why that is such an appalling outcome and why the people who are pushing for it really know this if britain stays in the customs union as a nonmember we give brussels one hundred percent control of our trade policy with zero percent input from us and in fact is even worse than that if you're in a customs union with the e.u. as a nonmember then whenever the e.u. does a trade deal with a third country say the e.u. did a trade deal with india. britain would have to match every concession made by the e.u. but india under w t o term. rules would only have to reciprocate views of the e.u. not visa the person now i don't believe any remain at all even possibly think that
5:28 pm
is a good outcome. i've got a question for daniel glenn because actually as it happens i can use him i'd much rather stay in the e.u. than have an arrangement where we're kind of vassal states and obliged to implement under how you train. your side of the referendums and just last point is you cannot keep my favorite but where do you draw the line while we're on done little or no we're not talking i'm not after yours i'm not talking about a referendum after referendum i'm talking about a referendum on whatever deal to raise i'm a comes back which because we're actually faced with the actual reality of a cliff edge at the moment it's all about hypothetical situation and the great majority of the public now agree. that they should take that decision on whether or not we go over this cliff edge or whether we stop it and stay in the point is done all that he wants a second referenda because now you've got something to vote on isn't the reality that you guys did this whole thing backwards you didn't vote on bricks it without knowing what it looks like without doing the deal without offering all these different proposals of customs unions checkers. isn't the point you did it
5:29 pm
backwards and now you do have to do a deal especially when polls show the majority of public now don't support pulling out of the e.u. they've switched according to the latest polls. well that's what the polls showed before the first one right and look how that worked out i mean first of all a second referendum wouldn't solve anything because the majority people would boycott it on the perfectly valid grounds that it invalidated all of the promises made in the first one because we were told repeatedly by the government by the opposition by all of the people now demanding a second vote that that was a final decision that would never be another go so it would be absurd to legitimize people trying to undo the promise on which the first one was take a lot of donors knows perfectly well what he's doing by demanding a second referendum here is encouraging the e.u. quite overtly in his case to offer the worst possible deal in the hope of overturning. roe so that is really regretted and if the way to go and do encouraging the if you can actually deal every other second referendum. now that's
5:30 pm
absolutely absurd because because it doesn't go to a people's vote parliament still has to decide what to do with the maze agreement doesn't have a majority in the house of commons so if what the e.u. is seeking to do is to game the decision to give us the worst possible terms in the hope that there were ject that they would do that anyway the reason that i want a people's vote is i think this issue is of such magnitude that it should go to the people because it started with the people with the referendum two years ago but the sit every time that opens his mouth he says something very significant which is a variance with what most of his colleagues say i took him to be saying a moment ago that he thinks that people who voted to leave two years ago should boycott a referendum on the terms of bracks he said that there will be a mass boycott of the referendum could he answer the question is he calling for people who are in favor of leaving the e.u. to boycott a referendum and therefore to make try and make democracy inoperable in britain is that what he's saying and what is making democracy in operable. is holding
5:31 pm
a referendum where the government sends a leaflet to every household in the land saying whatever we were you vote that we will implement your decision i don't remember lord adonis or anyone else on the remains side dissenting from that when the prime minister of the time said there is no going to be a second vote and make sure you do so that you think about this one ok let's get a quick answer yes or no are you calling for a mass boycott to predicting one which won a second referendum would be utterly illegitimate and i mean i don't know what other people would do but i would not vote in a second referendum because we just had a referendum you are all knowing i was going to load anything so that i was able to hold it would you encourage other people who vote in the illegitimate second. my own view is that if you're dealing with that situation where the british people have given a very clear mandate and the unelected peers and the elites then turn around and try and undo the biggest mandate we've ever had for anything but we should not play that game we should just say no we've already voted we're not having any more to do with your question you also mind we're talking one second seed surely you can see that another referendum which produced a stay in vote would basically destroy
5:32 pm
a huge amount of trust in british politics from the people who voted to leave the twenty something they would say we went to vote in twenty sixteen we were told our vote would be respected and now the good old politicians got together and basically cancelled our democratic vote that's clearly an absurd proposition because the people can't betray the people what will happen in this case is that having looked at the terms of bracks it's actually a different question from the ones who years ago that if seen the terms of brick sit there live see that many of the things that daniel hadn't told us would happen two years ago because everything was going to be milk and honey when we did breaks it they haven't happened and they've reached a judgment what is significant i haven't seen the terms of rate hoping that it's a ridiculous this would be like saying we want to have an election and then have another little bit of all this going is not a chance to be formed hold on they will do by the time we have the referendum don't you because that's the whole purpose of having it is the movie actually see what to make comes about from brussels with the first time we've seen it because two and a half years after the last referendum she still hasn't got. today anything when we
5:33 pm
actually see that we the people then get the chance not the elites you're talking about we the people don't get the chance to give our view and it's done you let me ask you this question down there because you came on the show in twenty sixteen during the referendum campaign you made the case very eloquently at the time for breaks it your side won the referendum but clearly if somebody called for a second referendum a week afterwards we would laugh them out of town but given two years later things haven't quite got to really take place i'll hold on but where we are now well done in another color be fair where we are now you know very well we have reports from the national farmers union saying food won't run out doctors saying there might be a medicine shortage the government saying we have to deploy troops to the border you know this is not how it was supposed to go there's no deal in sight there might be a no deal break there but then as i said i love those are regulars although not northern ireland was not debated in the referendum campaign the way it is now with there may be violence again in northern ireland which three quarters of english conservative voters say they're fine with as long as the happens things have changed.
