and to you. i'm adrian finighan this is counting the cost on al-jazeera a weekly look at the world of business and economics this week the brings it endgame it's complicated it's messy we'll look at what just happened in the u.k. as divorce proceedings from the european union also this week oil's new power play why opec's top producer saudi arabia wants to slam the brakes on production. and the strong bond between china and iran how it's being tested by tough u.s. sanctions. a draft deal has been served but it's proving to hard to stomach we're talking this week about the u.k. is divorced from the european union briggs it now it's friday morning here in doha

as i speak and as anyone who's been following this messy breakup knows it's complicated events are moving so fast that by now when you're watching anything could have happens but the deal agreed by the u.k. and the e.u. has been described in rather terms as at least bad brigs it u.k. prime minister to resign may says the draft agreement she managed to stitch together is in the national interest addressing the nation she said that it's better than no deal and that she wants to use it as the basis for negotiating the future economic relationship with the european union but getting her divorce accord ratified by parliament may prove impossible but brings that secretary and other ministers quit because they hate it let's take a closer look. well the draft agreement focuses our lot on new proposals over the irish border both sides have committed to avoiding a hard border between northern ireland and the republican violence arrangement to keep the u.k. within the u.s. customs union after bragg's it for

a certain amount of time the customs union is the arrangement by which the u. members apply the same tariffs to products imported from the rest of the world critics say the part of the plan will trap the u.k. in the box orbit for years banks are unhappy the plan gives u.k. banks insurers and asset managers limited access to european financial markets and even within the e.u. there are objections the french are upset because the draft leaves fisheries outside the single u.k. e.u. customs zone out of zeros jonah howell reports now from london. a prime minister in battled on multiple fronts but one determined to keep fighting i believe with every fiber of my being that the course i have set out is the right one for our country and all our people by the media she was asked if she was in denial about the chances of her breaks a deal success you're in office but not in power said one journalist if there is

a leadership contest will you contest it asked another swing and there was little support to be found in parliament broken promises failed to go see asians and abject capitulation to the e.u. it is therefore mathematically impossible to get this deal through the house of commons the choice is nigh clear we stand up for the united kingdom the whole of the united kingdom the integrity of the united kingdom or we vote for a vassal state with the breakup of the united are your getting ready to resume a says she's doing her job and she believes she's doing the right thing for the country draft brags a deal she insists protects jobs and gives the nation back control of its north of its money and of its borders the alternative she warned leaving the e.u. with no deal is a part of deep and grave uncertainty but among those who resigned on thursday

including two cabinet ministers and those who oppose the prime minister and her deal on the right of the conservative party there may soon be sufficient numbers to launch a leadership contest. that will go in but i'm not tired from what we know is a leader who will say to the european union it is impossible to divide up the united kingdom it is impossible to agree to a situation where we have a perpetual customs union it is impossible to pay thirty nine billion pounds of taxpayers' money for a few promises for now to resume a carries on and her briggs's deal in theory at least moves to brussels next week with the approval of e.u. leaders its survival though and indeed hers are not assured. well if you can make sense of the politics the u.k. currency may prove to be a more reliable barometer think of it as a kind of briggs it weather forecast on thursday the pound fell one point seven percent against the dollar it's steep its percentage slide since october twenty

sixth in derivatives markets signaling that the volatility in the u.k. currency is likely to continue that means that worries about the impact the briggs's drama is having on the u.k. economy are growing joining us now from london lorenzo could own a renzo is the founder of london based l.c. metro advisors and chief economist there there is a great to have you with us on counting the cost doesn't this this draft agreement actually do enough to attract investment to the u.k. and to allow the u.k. to do the trade deals that it says it wants to do outside of the european union. well let's push away i mean it's negative anyway i mean blacks it is negative is negative for the u.k. deeply negative for the u.k. it's certainly also negative for the rest of the e.u. so there's no adapter that any kind of deal that you can actually strike with the u.k. and the you on the other hand is going to be negative but at least it's less negative

that other options that are on the table for instance i think you would be highly disruptive if there is no deal and the u.k. ends up with the kind of damage to your backstop with no effective. no not dream and on anything for that would be very disruptive in my view would increase the sharply uncertainty so this solution today did with the one it is on the table and it's not yet one on the percent sure clearly it has to go through the political process and. i think is the least damaging option that is on the table or at. it's possibly too early to say in answer to this question but what in your opinion does this draft agreement mean for the loosening of government purse strings in the u.k. and the ending of austerity. well any hour sterrett here fact really the budget the

latest the budget these are already suggesting something like that i think that it's probably going to end the a long period of uncertainty political uncertainty in the u.k. which i think started with a with a referendum and this is good news in my view too much time in the u.k. has been the track that has been a separate track to buy buy buy buy this all issue and and i think the government has more important things to go but but again this big deal you know took a lot of time a lot of efforts and. it was basically pushed for government action which has been a little bit dysfunctional soil and i think it's good news if it reaches at least we have a deal but again it's not finished and we need to monitor the next few days and next few weeks whether which will go through the rounds or who ultimately will

end up paying for briggs it well automatically it will be u.k.p. .
