about these discrepancies they withdrew those results give you a couple of examples the voter turnout was just over thirty eight million people but the number of ballots cast was more than forty million so all of a sudden there are more than two million ballots cast by a seemingly mystery group of voters and the turnout lips significantly if we look at the numbers from sunday election day to that media conference on thursday an extra four and a half million voters were found so clearly many people are asking questions of the election commission why there are so many problems emerging emerging why there are so many discrepancies in these numbers the election commission is only really saying that it will investigate in the meantime the political parties are being left to try to form coalitions trying to do deals with like minded parties those agreements will really amount to nothing until the final official results are known

from london the house of commons teresa mayes full day who has as you know already been voted down twice by mc so this time they're being asked to approve only part of the overall breck's it will be live in london in just a moment to bring you the parliamentary debate which are looking at right now but first this report from louise barker on the latest about men's. efforts to secure backing for teresa mayes deal are intensifying with senior government ministers urging m.p.'s to give the twice defeated divorce deal another go this after may promise to resign if a proposal is passed those tipped to replace a say now is the time to back the deal in seventeen point four million people just leave the european union have a chance to make sure that we do that's what everyone can support the prime minister's deal with. the speaker of the house told the government that it could only put the deal before parliament again if it was fundamentally different but i do expect the government to meet the test of change so the government devised

a plan to split the deal already agreed with the e.u. into its two constituent parts the withdrawal agreement and the political declaration that would draw agreement includes details about citizens' rights the fifty one billion dollars breaks a bill for leaving the e.u. now the northern irish border it's a legally binding document and has to be passed in parliament by friday to allow the u.k. to leave the e.u. on may the twenty second the political declaration on the other hand dictates the future relationship between the u.k. and. you and forms the basis of future trade talks is a much shorter document it's also not legally binding by separating the two plan to vote only on the withdrawal agreement was given the green light by the speaker to go before parliament on friday and this was how it was presented this house notes the european council decision at the twenty second of march twenty nine thousand

taken in agreement with the united kingdom but want does it mean. in short the government's using the friday deadline set by the e.u. to get eighty percent of to resume a proposal passed to reset the brakes at departure o'clock to may the twenty second allowing britain to leave the e.u. with a deal entitling the country to a two year transition period it's been called the bare bones of brakes it is a big risk for the government considering hard line break cities and to reason may's own party and northern ireland's democratic unionist party that props up maine's government of repeatedly refused to back it up they'll have to rely on support from other sides of the house but the opposition labor party has said that it would be the blindest of blind bricks it that would mean leaving. with absolutely no idea where we're heading but. all. the more m.p.'s are continuing to look for an alternative to theresa may's deal after

seizing control of parliamentary proceedings on wednesday no single plan gained a majority m.p.'s will vote again on monday the big question both leavers and remain as asking now is whether to resume a gamble will pay off the barca al-jazeera westminster. i let's take you back now live to the house of commons where the debate continues this is the. lesson from the office party not what is in the interests of this country the prime minister announced her red lines and went to negotiate without any consultation with this house without any attempt to build consensus those red lines were opposed by the represented bodies of workers businesses and industry who are now mr speaker tearing their hair out in exasperate should the incompetence of this government and the uncertainty they face the first cracks exactly said it did

a deal that would deliver the exact same benefits as now the current bracks except girl was he felt that's far too good for the country because only two weeks ago he went in the lobbies to back no deal and to oppose an extension that would leave the u.k. crashing out in just ten days time with no preparations and chaos at our ports and airports leading to a crisis in factories shops and hospitals i want to the government's forecasts say about the brics secretary's preferred no deal option that would make the economy not four percent worse off but nearly ten percent worse off so it's no wonder then that faced with a choice between the prime minister's bad deal and a disastrous no deal the house this house has given a clear no to both repeatedly the government suffered the largest defeat of any in

parliamentary history in january the prime minister said then and i quote it's clear this house does not support this deal so what's the government's response it's tried begging it's tried bullying it's tried by bribery and it still defeated by the fourth largest majority in parliamentary history the. my minister told us we must leave on the twenty ninth of march and even wrote that into primary legislation that she has self voted against leaving on the twenty ninth of march so. the prime minister then went to brussels to negotiate an extension and almost unbelievably even turned that into another negotiating failure this government's prexy to go see actions have been a litany of failure culminating today with the prime minister who's been forced to a natural own departure only tabling half the deal she has negotiated this really is a half baked bricks it when she became prime minister two and

a half years ago she said it was her mission to deliver bricks that shane has failed she also stood on the steps of downing street and promised that her government would tackle burning injustices since then she's failed every test hostess's up life expectancy is fulling interest mortality is rising crime is rising waist down was a full on and this year's n.h.s. has had its worst ever months on history people waiting longer a day in a for an operation and to start cancer treatment and just yesterday we learned that more children are in poverty and the scourge a pension of poverty is rising again the job of government is to make people's lives better and this government has failed a botched and a half baked bricks in jail like the one before us today would compound the failure

on wednesday the house sought to find an alternative new negotiating deal for the government legace plan and i believe provides the best compromise for a deeply divided country and in truth a deeply divided house. it is backed in large part by major organizations and industry and business and by trade unions it's based around the certain say of a permanent customs union close alignment with the single market and a dynamic alignment on rights and protections mistaken labor support for four of the options table by members of different parties on different sides of the house we did so. we did so not because would be equally happy with each of those outcomes because we recognize that we have to compromise to get this result

the whole house knows that the current uncertainty is damaging businesses is reducing investment and is costing jobs now and in the future and the stress of people in work is palpable i should travel around the country and talk to people in all parts of the country so i hope on monday the house retakes control that parties and members on all sides will enter into those debates and votes in the spirit of trying to find an acceptable compromise we need to get a better deal the country deserves a better deal and i'm convinced that a better deal can be negotiated and if members decide to chance rip people to have a final say if we cannot do that on monday then i ultimately and many others would agree with me say no alternative other than having

a general election to decide who rules this country in the future mrs baker to enable the prime minister to have sufficient time to watch the debate i say this in conclusion i urge members today to act in the best interests of their constituents and to. down this on an acceptable to it. there are many people who fear for their jobs fear for their industry all whether they or their friends have a future in this country and that is causing immense stress to many people however they voted in the referendum in two thousand and sixteen they are united in their stress and concern about their future and their communities future we need to rebuild our country and invest in our communities too many of which have been neglected ignored and underfunded for years a bush and

a half baked deal like the one before us today and would only deepen those problems and those divisions misspeak on this deal even the half of what we have before us today is bad for our democracy bad for our economy and bad for this country and i urge the house not to make a jolt on this third time lucky strategy and vote it down to jay sure yes they're. in the air on this to. this this is being another impassioned debate on bret's it i've told him on many occasions over the past few months saying questions and taking interventions from right honorable and on.
