russia. new yorkers are very receptive. because it is such an international city they are very interested in that global perspective that al jazeera provides. zero. glamour shall carry this is the news hour live from doha coming up in the next sixty minutes we are in the right two hundred into the no use to the left four hundred thirty two british by a landslide to reject prime minister theresa may steal to leave the european union as the u.k.'s worst political crisis and decades intensifies. at least five people are dead in the gun involved attack on

a hotel complex in the kenyan capital nairobi. former president of ivory coast is cleared of war crimes by the international criminal court. and in support palestine keep up their hopes of reaching the knockout rounds of football's nation. and we begin in the u.k. where prime minister theresa may withdraw all agreement overwhelmingly rejected by politicians including more than one hundred people from within her own party so this is how the vote came down two hundred two voted for theresa made steel with the european union with four hundred thirty two voting against that means the prime minister lost by two hundred thirty votes after the crushing defeat the opposition leader the opposite position literally a leader of the labor party pardon me tabled a no confidence motion in may's minority government which will be debated on wednesday paul brennan has this round up of

a dramatic day of events in london. the eyes to the right two hundred into. the nose to the left four hundred and thirty to. two hundred and thirty vote margin of defeat was an emphatic rejection of teresa mayes bret's its strategy but still the british prime minister is refusing to resign stead throwing down a challenge to the crowd a chamber every day that passes without this issue being resolved means more uncertainty more bitterness and more rancor the government of hurt has heard what the house has said tonight but i ask members on all sides of the house to listen to the british people who want this issue settle. and to work with the government to do just that the opposition labor party reacted furiously after weeks of hesitation on the timing of the labor leader finally launched his bid to oust her she cannot

seriously believe that after two years of failure she is capable of to go shaping a good deal for the people of this country the most important issue facing us is that the government has lost the confidence of this house in this country i therefore mr speaker inform you i have now tabled a beauchesne of no confidence in this. that motion will be debated later on wednesday that the indications are that she will win that vote so rival camps of pro and anti breaks it demonstrators outside westminster are still no pyrrha about whether bracks it is going to happen and if so in what form of march the twenty ninth still achievable as a proxy deadline is another referendum the only solution or should britain just leave the e.u. and fall back on to w t o rules all of those options have their supporters here. is raising a question of the whole principle of parliamentary procedure british government

against the parliament and parliament against the people. one last initially up winery in crowd question has now given rise to a whole kaleidoscope of catholics objects. outcomes to europe's reaction was swift . spoke of his regret at the u.k. vote the risk of a disorderly withdrawal of the united kingdom has increased with this evening's vote he said i urge the united kingdom to clarify its intentions as soon as possible time is almost up and been very very clear it is not going to reopen the goetia agent and even if it did it will not get rid of the back story which is the main thing that this place doesn't like so she's out of options which is going to keep on pretending that she does have options because that's the only way that you can survive for one more day one week one moment. to recently had warned m.p.'s they faced a choice between her deal no deal or no bracks it the options have just narrowed by one things you paul brennan al-jazeera westminster with you ellen taylor has been

following developments from downing street. well this is a huge defeat for treason may in the next toss but has to survive the no confidence vote and although many of her own m.p.'s voted massively against her deal they may not be so inclined to actually bring down her government for instance we've had the former firms actually boris johnson as saying that he would support her in a no confidence vote saying the same time that the scale of the defeat gives the u.k. a massive mandate to go back to brussels to cause that they may not see it that way if she does have i have no confidence vote and she said she will hold meetings with the opposition and others in parliament to try to come up with ideas that can get support for moving forward now that may include the idea of a second referendum but again that's not simple because the second referendum requires the backing of parliament and they may not be the support throughout parliament for that second referendum and the same goes for the ideas of delaying bricks it all cancelling it altogether so at the moment although there is has been

a clear defeat against a reason may the options on going forward are not clear which will the un says the deal agreed to with me is the best i can offer or has the latest from brussels. here in brussels a real sense of regret and dismay at the sheer size of the defeat for the prime minister to resign may be the president of the european commission john load has been coming back to wait for any a merge and see talks that might be needed but the size of that means that it's very unlikely over the next three days that a plan b. can be sorted out with any real concessions a real compromise is because the deal on the table remained a deal on the table there will be no new negotiations that are talks but no chance of negotiations that will effectively change that in any way in the timeframe that reason may has got to put it before the u.k.

parliament again so it's a case very much that the european union is preparing for a no deal briggs's taking measures to contingency measures that going on with that they're saying to the united kingdom it's time to clarify the position it's a case that time is almost up but there seems little chance of a plan b. can become effective in the little time left after so many months of negotiation and it's a case that brussels is waiting in some despair to see what will happen names aren't slain joins us live from london on well it's been quite a quite a day lauren so i guess the most pressing issue is the no confidence vote tomorrow . yes i mean it's a curious set of affairs really because there's only forty or so sitting

parliamentary days before march twenty ninth when the u.k. supposed to leave and as david chase was just saying if they can't figure out a way forward then the u.k. crashes out which almost nobody wants and yet at the same time the people doing all the celebrating so nice are those who want a much softer brecht's it or no brakes it's all the pound for example just a full twelve cents against the euro at eight o'clock tonight because the money markets are made a calculation that's rexx it may not happen or if it does it'll be much more amenable to business and all the opposition parties are delighted because the reason may has conceded that she's now going to have to talk to them so it is it is very old as a ses of affairs but time is very much against the u.k. in coming up with a deal less or similar to jonathan less from the think tank british influence. just on the no confidence vote jonathan to start with it does look like even labor have conceded that they that they won't win so if they don't win then resume

a can get on with trying to build these cross parliamentary bridges but you've got very little time to do it doesn't she look at both the parties are totally paralyzed by their own policies to reason may's policy is to return again and again with her deal is a complete nonstarter but it's all she's got labor's policy is to call for a vote of no confidence again and again because jeremy cooper in cattle councils the idea of a second referendum again that's a nonstarter they're both going to have to budge on the way in the meeting the middle is the second referendum now it's extraordinary that the prime minister was able to get three labor m.p.'s on board just three out any competent prime minister in the last century would have known that from the very beginning this was across party enterprise and it required compromise i required reaching out to put to m.p.'s across the division and to try and see what would have been the father she so comprehensively failed isn't. staying indictment on our own personal food as a leader she's not the leader we need at this moment and joe see how she can

deliver bret's it in a way that was asked by anybody whether or not it ends up being a second referendum or a or a softer deal that can maintain a majority in parliament that's going to take some time so you have the view now that they have to go to the european union say please kill me extends not try and leave on march twenty ninth at all but give us three months or six months or something if we can promise you that we're going to have a completely different idea for us it's guaranteed there is absolutely no chance that we are leaving the e.u. on the twenty ninth of march because the only way we could do that is if we left with no deal and parliament would have to sit for asli and comprehensively trumps any any possibility that might happen so we either leaving with may's deal which seems impossible or within an amended deal to give it a single marketing customs union the so-called norway plus option or no bricks or tool as a result of a second referendum now that if we do go for that in a way possible in which somebody they're talking about is a right as

a compromise it will you succeed because it's just seen as pointless it's bracks in name only ok doesn't this thank you very much for. it does look very many people here even people support conceding tonight that something completely different is going to have to get called possibly another referendum that could take months or months but my goodness lawrence live for us in london thanks lawrence and the english city of darby more than fifty seven percent of people voted to leave the european union and the hayward is there and has been getting reaction from local residents. after the vote there was a lot of talk about the divisions in british society and how divided opinion even in the social club is still divides opinion what to do divides opinion there is a consensus among many people i've spoken to here and that is people describing politicians and what they've done as a shambles i think few people can believe that with so much little time till britain is supposed to leave that this is the mess that britain seems to have got

itself in but done all these very important because it is the manufacturing hub and thousands of jobs are linked to manufacturing throughout the night we've been speaking to three people could be to oberoi a business woman kelvin simpson the secretary of this club who worked for groceries for a long time and mikey who's the university of darby student could be your reaction to what happened in parliament tonight are you disappointed that the the deal hasn't been passed by and paste who i'm more disappointed about is how the politicians have reacted throughout the period of the last two years in especially now the last minute i feel like it's very much become about power struggle and rather than thinking about the impact on the general public and what's best for the country and i think it's become a lot about personalities so i think it's really really disappointing and i think it's very embarrassing as a country you know what was the thinking of what's happened here tonight i don't

really think you know where we are now we still not leave would we most moving backwards in time so very very disappointed and kelvin you both to leave are you disappointed that we could leave without a deal britain could leave without today a very distorted i think contrary whether they voted to leave or a bank of very disappointed to see what's happened over the last few years where it should have been sorted they would then know what they're supposed to be doing and we're still in. things need to move on whether it's going to do the need to do it quickly i might would you like to see a second referendum. i would like to see a second referendum simply because i feel the sec referendum would allow the people to decide whether we want to go through now we know about all the potential implications and now we know that the vast majority of the warnings which were different and dismissed as projects are about set out to be project facts. as

a huge amount of young people people who didn't vote who now would be a would say and now and toss have a say in the future of our country thank you very much for joining us hey i was just there today i think really the only certainty is uncertainty really and it will be interesting in the hours to come what big business and dolly have to say but for now back to you in the studio soapbox that will have huge implications for ireland the e.u. has insisted on a so-called backstop and its deal with theresa may which has become the biggest sticking point for british m.p.'s it's a way of avoiding a return to a hard border between northern ireland which is part of the u.k. and the republic of ireland which is in the e.u. the border has been open for twenty years since the end of violent conflict and the north a peace that something could be under threat from bracks it a park or reports from derry. northern ireland's police service the p.s.n. eyes preparing for a worst case breaks an audio the return of

a hard border with member island it could soon ask for hundreds of specially trained reinforcements from the rest of the u.k. what we would be very cautious of is as hard for structure going on the border that actually would mean that potentially our officers would be on protracted unpredictable points for a long time history showed us about those terrorist remains to to be able to plan an orchestra it attacks on our officers that is something we don't want to see so if that were to happen then it would have to be very very properly resourced and i think would have to be heavily resourced during thirty years of sectarian violence the streets were patrolled by the forerunners of the police service of northern ireland the royal ulster constabulary they are you see it was a conflict between nationalists mainly catholics who identify as irish and unionists mostly protestants who want this province to remain a part of the u.k. for many nationalists the r.u.c. was seen as an oppressive colonial force backed by the british army paramilitary

groups including the irish republican army they are a sort to expel them would force a delicate peace has lasted for twenty years but a legacy of hatred remains. last year londonderry sore spike in violence police were set upon in a nationalist neighborhood and there was several nights of rioting hooliganism and poverty both have a part to play in the armrest but police also say the new ira a combination of republican paramilitary groups fuels the violence party gallagher is a member of syria a new hard left anti british political party it glorifies the ira but insists it's peaceful the party intends to exploit breaks in to the fore not out of any desire to stain europe but simply to destabilize. the u.k. . is causing difficulty for him. so there's all of the evidence again

it's an opportunity for ireland the reality is ireland's partition which six countries occupied. the mere mention of precipice bring in the border situation in the people's minds again there has been a pause before there could be attacked again. rex it is created a dangerous new context the bitter old rivalries putting the question of identity and loyalty back at the center of anglo irish politics leave ball couches era dairy . back door of research at the school of law and government universities also author of partition bricks at the irish government and northern ireland he joins us via skype thank you so much for your time so it seems you've said that it seems that a lot of the british m.p.'s were caught off guard that the issue of ireland which was such a big deal why were they caught off guard. well i guess you have to go back to the referendum of twenty sixteen there's

a very interesting book that was written about the referent of campaign by craig all of her paper commons director of communications calls on nishijima over four hundred pages not one single reference to martin's and the entire book and that reflects the campaign itself it was all about so-called taking back control of was about immigration but nobody talked about the fact that it would have a large and the irish government of course was acutely aware of the negative effect that rights would have been hot for barry before exit for the possibility that the united kingdom might meet the european union but unfortunately now you know the british parliament is belatedly dealing with the logical consequences of its own decisions its already lines if it wants to lead the single market european single market and the costs and soon it's very difficult to reconcile those aspirations with maintaining the current invisible order in in are as i give you any confidence that this particular body knows how to deal with this that is how to get get out of this in some way or move forward rather is

a better term not at all i mean from the very beginning the british you know government has been negotiating with itself rather than with the european union and it's quite clear that when drazen may trigger doxil fifty in march two thousand and seventeen that she happened to to your plan about what she wanted to achieve with the european union and how great it would actually take effect that's more or less the response that you're getting from the european union and the are the hoops night they're all singing from the same hymn sheet is just simply tell us what you want and we will try to facilitate that in so much as we can with you know the european laws and legal systems and yet you know at the same time you're getting all these big budget mess just it's like negotiating with six hundred fifty members of parliament then with a sovereign united government what are they amplifications for ireland that this isn't sorted out in some way. well the implications are arguably more serious and for the united kingdom it's estimated doesn't for example

a known deal breaks that the united kingdom economy might suffer a top five percent of g.d.p. and equivalent drop of seven percent would be protected for for ireland there's also of course as your report mentioned the danger of harm border. and treason may be interesting to try true raise the implications you know before parliament terms of what that might entail she said the union itself the united kingdom might be threatened by our border because a hard break serves no deal breaks it would just kind of sharpen the poverty issue in north and it might make more people in favor of united aren't as a way of staying in the european union it would also course nationalistic tensions in scotland and may need of course to a second referendum there getting twenty and so you know britain leaving the european union is one thing but there are two unions you might say that are vulnerable the european union by far the stronger and more united in these negotiations but also united kingdom which is made up of four different entities

with very conflicting aspirations sometimes and i think that price trying ireland to just abandon the backstop. well certainly that's been the hope of many in the brics it's your camp they have to fight to detect any degree of division in the european union structure is between the commission and the council or between individual member states to see if pressure could be applied on our lands they have not fully engaged or understood or acknowledged the asymmetrically of power between the european union and the united kingdom they felt that simply because ireland is a lot smaller than the united kingdom that they could rely on that traditional him balance of power to get their way on the issue of the border in arlen's but at the european union has spoken with the united voice on this has more or less supported the irish position on the border and that has been something that again you've seen flight has been very difficult to digest for the house of commons ok donna go back and thank you very much appreciate it. plenty more ahead in the news hour

obviously the perfect person to talk to on this we appreciate your time so much. how would you characterize the feeling absolutely how would you characterize the feeling among a leaders right now when it comes to the u k. well you know it this is just it's bizarre and i think for many e.u. leaders they're deeply unsettled they are main goal is to just get a deal and you know they're willing to take a lot of different deals but they need to know what the u.k. government wants and this vote again you know it just shows again that the u.k. doesn't have a clear position does the seems ok you say they're open to a lot of plans but at this point at this at this very point it seems though they have put their foot down and said you know figure this out do what is the significance of them driving such a hard bargain are they trying to make an example of the u.k. in any way no i say i don't think so the e.u.

for a very long time has basically treated the u.k. with kid gloves there have been a range of exemptions that the u.k. has enjoyed for years so if you think about the currency they don't use the euro they use the pound if you think about immigration they didn't join the schengen agreement if you think about how much they pay into the e.u. they got this rebate so the e.u. for years has basically said we're going to try to work with the u.k. to get them you know into the into the into the game but once the u.k. says they want to get out there really are no choice there are three choices and the e.u. has said here are your three choices either you stay in you get kind of the current deal that may is proposed or you get w t o kind of what people call the hard. he just touched on something do you think that that's part of what the issue is now set the u.k. for so long has been able to have a little bit of both and that maybe perhaps that some people thought they would still be able to do. well you know i don't i really i don't

believe that the politicians that opened up this can of worms that they honestly believed they could get a better deal in my mind this was all house of cards infighting backstabbing between different groups within british domestic politics and you know now that the can of worms have been opened they don't have a real clear plan of what to do and so that i think is the real travesty of brecht's it is that the people of britain they suffer from this internal political maneuvering how is this played out in the u.s. donald trump has talked a few times publicly about a possible trade deal with u.k. houses playing out in the u.s. well i think you know how much american they're just confused what we why can't they why can't they figure this out for the administration you know i think ultimately donald trump has no love lost for the european union he's said many

times that he thinks the european union is you know either ineffectual foe in trade and so for him you know this is just another aggravation to stick it to the e.u. but for the u.k. unfortunately you know teresa mayes she's often said well the way out of brecht's it is going to be a set of trade agreements but i think any trade agreement with the united states is going to be extremely difficult here you have donald trump somebody who's been willing to say that canada is a national security threat when it comes to steel imports canada so you know how do you how the u.k. going to fare i think it's also just as unrealistic you these trade deals take many many years absolutely hey it's going to be kind of desperate to sign something and the u.s. you know they can take their time ever having a mentally appreciate your insight on this very much thank you. hundreds have a. joint a new caravan that's heading for the us mexico border they're the second group to

the streets of us are already very uncertain you know every. uses metals is saying increase prices even if they were sourced domestically because the domestic sources are seeing greater demand two of the biggest automakers here at the north american international auto show in detroit the motor city's own ford and general motors say tariffs are cutting twenty eight hundred profits by a billion dollars each the world's largest car market china the target of u.s. steel tariffs is contracting and after a nearly decade long auto industry boom forecasters say the industry is due to decline in two thousand and nineteen in part due to a trade war president donald trump picked with china the president who calls himself a tariff man insists the u.s. treasury is reaping billions from chinese tariffs that. we are joining the bird badly but are. they getting a lot of money a lot of money a lot of. but among automakers the trade war has left many casualties it's too

early to say who's winning the trade war i think it's clear that there's already but it's through early to say who in fact is winning china's g.a.c. motors won't be selling in the u.s. market till twenty twenty but they're preparing by coming here to detroit. but for the first time in years most european auto makers including porsche audi b.m.w. mercedes and land rover are skipping north america's most revered auto show v.w. is a rare exception. yet for some in chaos there is opportunity we're growing we need more engineering talent so you know not that i wish the downturn on the industry but if there is a downturn and if some good talent comes free that's going to be of benefit to us next year is the detroit auto show lose from a winter date to a summer event the world's automakers hope the industrial climate will be beaumier as well john hendren al-jazeera detroit time for sport now with andy.

thank you very much for palestine have kept the hopes of reaching the knockout rounds of the asian cup alive draw with jordan giving them a chance of making it beyond the group stages for the first time in their history well this was palestine's final group game in the result means they finish third in their group jordan advances group win is the full best third place teams go through palestine now have a nervous whites all the other group games are completed to see if the soup or its will be enough. of palestine finished the thanks to a late win a from australia and the other group began the defending champions beating syria three seeing a draw would have been enough to keep syria in contention that goal from celtic's home mortgage ended their hardships across from a chance trafford was with palestine fans in gaza watching that seems game against jordan. this is only the second time the palestine is qualified video to god but in two thousand and fifteen they didn't get

a single point having lost will they see what already people here are saying this cup is been a success because they've got a single point having drawn with syria nail or let's not forget the goals i saw for the monday israel's line here and see blockade the conditions they think will leave here in gaza are a bully so you can imagine what a day like today he doesn't know how that will speak to you and i are very proud to say to come out support they do. i promise line only got three for recognition in one nine hundred ninety eight players come from gaza or the occupied west bank some live in israel and four players live in chile you know maybe turkey we are of course very happy to be here supporting our team the team represents the palestinian people have it the present policy and unity the first half was ok but she said difficult game for us but in comparison to the twenty fifteen asia cup our team is much better now. but safe from kanu unison southern gaza he was shot in

both legs by an israeli sniper during a protest at the border months ago what led to it is our duty as palestinians to support our team and that we are sick or injured we have to support them they are our heroes representing us in front of the world and so in their low score in tonight's match but there are many people here that are actually celebrating this result when you bear in mind that the last time that jordan and palestine played in the two. thousand and fifteen a few games jordan beat them five one this result means that palestine finished third in their group and they still stand the charge of progressing into the last sixteen for that we're going to have to wait for another couple of days was the other matches played to all stop at al-jazeera garza let's have a look at how that group finished past on in the third and in contention for a place in the last sixteen despite having not scored

a goal earlier on we spoke to football writer martin like he says that same have taken huge strides since that debbie and the twenty fifteen asian cup i think the improvements been incredible really and i think it was down to that first asian co-parents palestine are very similar to a couple of nations around asia where they rely heavily on that they asked for and that national team hailing from your so in the last four years is there up in the couple of players that kind of been the bedrock of the squad but the majority of the squad been kind of recruited within the last four years and you've seen a great improvement from that and even been able to kind of and rely on home games rather than playing in know much status around the gulf region but you're also been able to kind of rely on the competitive football which they have and will qualifies them and how they will kind of get out of this kind of position they're in so

they've got to point to this as you go which i think's incredible for them at this stage but they do rely on a couple of results going away for the rest of the tournament see if it progressed last sixteen. well one of asian football's biggest stars has now joined up with the south korea team tom streicher son humen was allowed to mrs country's first two games so he could carry on playing in the premier league season and south korea played china in their final group game on wednesday both teams have six points so this match will decide which team progress is into the last sixteen is group winners tottenham looks set to be short of striker options as they aim to keep pace with man city and liverpool in the premier league title race as well as sun being absent england captain harry kane could be missing for up to two months due to an ankle injury while the more of a joke of it just started his bid for a record seventh australian open title also chasing his fifteenth grand slam crown overall got off to a flying start in his opening match against american qualifier michel kruger joke

open final she was fined seventeen thousand dollars after that much following a rather heated argument with the umpire next up for her it's canada's eugenie bouchard. will be a great match she plays really well. she does everything well and i really like that she doesn't quit you know people write her off and that doesn't she doesn't let that bother her and she continues to. fight and do it she loves to do so i think that's what. i saw her also through to the second round the twenty one year old beating unseeded my girl and it seems straight sets the japanese world than before winning this match in less than an hour. and simona halep just starts avoided becoming the first top seed in forty years to lose in the first round in melbourne to remain in world number one coming from a set down so eventually bait car can i think of a start in your. thoughts on one of it's her as her ankle lost in three sets against laura siegmund it's a worse display in melbourne parks in more than
