satellite picture we can see the clouds at first it just in the north drifting their way towards the east but then a few brighter white areas of cloud begin to develop to the south of that and this is the area we've got to watch over the next few days that really gets going and then we see some very heavy downpours that thursday and on friday the whole thing is moving southward so those who on friday it will be the growing she area and the growing dome province where we see the worst of the wet weather really does look very wet here i mean further towards the south and there's some sunshine for most of us in the southeastern parts of asia but also some shop showers around some particularly heavy ones have been there over the southern half of the philippines but we're also seeing plenty of a possible through java and into some our ship from the northwest impulses also want to see showers here particularly over positon island and as we stretching through cambodia and into parts of viet nam for friday as well one or two of us are likely to see a few showers here there's also some showers a further towards the northwest as well if we look at the satellite picture we can see them making their way across parts of bangladesh when those ones ease i think we'll just see more developing particularly later on during the day so at first it
9:01 am
shouldn't be too bad for the eastern part straw yes haught yes but the showers that pop up late on thursday and late on friday to. with a sponsor. he came from a wealthy background in paris and became an artist against his family's wishes he went on to bring a fresh perspective to oriental painting falling in love with some harlem culture making his home and converting to islam. and. tells the story of the city and his unique artistic work. the french oriented list on al-jazeera.
9:02 am
you're watching al-jazeera let's recap the top stories for you european union leaders have offered british prime minister theresa may an extension of. october thirty first. president says may has agreed to it but spain's the u.k. will not crash out of the e.u. on friday. israel's party has conceded defeat in the country's general election announcement paves the way for prime minister benjamin netanyahu to try and form a government and then as president nicolas maduro has called us vice president mike pence a racist supremacy made the comments after pence called on the u.n. security council to officially recognize opposition leader was. president. the u.n. chief is calling for a cease fire in libya to avoid what he calls a bloody battle for tripoli the security council held an emergency meeting on the
9:03 am
situation as fighting there and ten surprise dozens of people have been killed in recent days that includes at least thirty fighters loyal to a warlord. whose back forces rather are trying to take the capital tripoli from the un backed government the united nations says at least four thousand people have been displaced and many are trapped. it's still time to stop it still stime for a cease fire to take place for a cessation of hostilities to take place and to avoid the worst which would be a dramatic bloody battle for tripoli and it's still time to recognize there is no military solution only political solution scale apply to situations like the one in libya i'm going to tell ahead as well from tripoli. the situation is still a very tense in the southern outskirts of the libyan capital tripoli following get yesterday's clashes between forces loyal to the warlord khalifa haftar and others
9:04 am
loyal to the end of baghdad police based government of national accord have to us forces manager to open and you'll front in the southern eastern outskirts of tripoli namely in a neighborhood old call that aims are and eyewitnesses that say that hundreds of families would leaving the area because of the clashes and meanwhile the government of national accord accuses have to us forces of targeting civilian areas with heavy with heavy weapons or random shelling or have random shootings have been landing in that civilian areas and also have air force has been targeting get the government forces locations in the outskirts of the libyan capital meanwhile the government of national poll says that its air force has conducted civil air strikes targeting have to forces locations around the city of again around one hundred kilometers to
9:05 am
the to the south from the libyan capital tripoli government sources say that they have been recaptured sixteen. fighters and also military vehicles the situation remains very tense and it seems that despite the fact that civil international institutions have been calling for called including the united nations and the european union but it seems that neither one of the evil factions on the ground is listening to the international calls but generally speaking this situation is collation it seems to be dealing with the peace talks need their general national conference which was due to be held on the fourteenth of this month in the city of adama's taking else brussels for donald tusk a price and they are. jonker the president of the european commission are addressing the media six month or the u.k. during this time. the cause of action will be entirely in the u.k.
9:06 am
so it. can still rather fied there is a rather grim and enrich case the extension will be terminated. it can also reconsider the whole rigid strategy. that might lead to changes in the political declaration but not in the withdrawal agreement. until the end of this period they also have the possibility to revoke the cliff if defense counsel briggs it all together. ok we'll continue to see a corporation as a full member state who is all its rights and as a close friend and trusted ally in the future let me finish with. let's just start to our british friends. this extension this as flexible as i expected. and a little bit shorter than i expected but that still enough. to find the best
9:07 am
possible solution please. do not waste this time. thank you thank you and now president you say you can commission we. will not sponsor madame invest your. new stock was in you know we thought for diffuse you to through a course that is part of this you. sometimes difficult. way i have always been determined to find an agreement between the princess and great britain and i have to tell you that the commission is delighted by the result we have ten times as much as it will have. as remittance of me. and we do often have meetings that twenty seven without the u.k. to be done in the way forward before to start to move on but. you
9:08 am
know different so if your status of course between slaves strain members who. leave you know who would remain all and all. you know there is no question of treating differently the various members of the union when in the one nine hundred ninety seven i believe to my colleagues that it should be on the euro group so there was. a lot of resistance from the scandinavian countries for example but we still did it because those who. wanted solidarity. on this should have been given the possibility perhaps of discussing things amongst themselves. books. and that's precisely what we did today we. british. friends
9:09 am
to. make sure that there is a fair competition between all members and we are convinced that the united kingdom will respect its obligations in june when we will meet again. we will. look at the agreement which has been agreed with the e.u. with the u k. to make sure that the agreement has been fully respected priest but it's unfair to backstop. and there we will not. renegotiating the agreement of course because if they've cracked skull and we hope very much that the island will realize that all their requests and needs are being properly addressed by the other members of the election european union. they are the european elections of course which they will have to
9:10 am
participate. in but we have to may seem rather strange that but we have to respect the rules. and we will review all that you know just talk to blacks it. and we will not only be discussing brics it. read the european newspapers this morning breaks it breaks it breaks it is sort of. obtaining agreements. that nobody. expected them to national security but they agreement with china which way to obtain has not been reflected very much in the press. so. it's true. yes. because other beltran. does report things well
9:11 am
it did talk about the trainer agreement. anyway apart from this why no other newspaper spoke about it is lost in my mind historic agreement which proves i think. it's focused on bricks. and not enough on the other business of the union and its future. so yes i am delighted that we have actually found an agreement it's an essential one it was essential that the twenty seventh. found unanimity about the way forward and we will be looking at that in october but the meeting was too long. thank you and the floor is now open for your questions and i think the first question goes chris the gentleman to our right. thank you
9:12 am
berman is chris morris from b.b.c. and president said the extension was a little shorter than you expected isn't it from your perspective in some ways the worst of both worlds not short enough to really put on the pressure in the u.k. parliament to get a deal passed quickly but not long enough to allow you to set aside breaks it to focus on other things for any useful period of time and secondly as you know article fifty says nothing or doesn't rule out multiple extensions is there anything in the language agreed today which says october thirty first is the final deadline or is it possible that come mid october mid to late october we will once again be having a summit like this and working out how much longer we're going to extend again. i think it's always better to have a. piece of something than all of nothing and.
9:13 am
if we should rule that then six months and more than thirty six per cent of all three weeks it. it could be enough for. a good solution if this is good through and. majority for some solutions in that in london of course and i was of come and. generally i'm satisfied because it's. as you know not only that today's discussion but also our preparations. showed the this idea of flexibility extension or sir. not so obvious for some are about this and this is. i think we have to be. maybe not happy but for the fight by this by the solution. our intention is to finalize the whole process in that folder but
9:14 am
the political and the nationalist clear among the member states that our. i wish and our hope is that the u.k. will be ready with and with the final solution in unto. the end of october but i'm too old to exclude. another scenario he said i think it's still everything is possible. and the second question. listen. i. don't like you know actually if you voted. for him no should should we have to do everything to avoid if that's what shows trying to do you. know we have been quite successful. i like the decision we have to come to not tonight
9:15 am
because. i was being tricked on that. i have to leave. my job for the first time. so my guess would be the true reason if not the most social because if i have to leave to meet you know the facts i. so a little bit of levity there from the european commission president john younger but also it's clear that there's a bit of frustration from him as well as from donald tusk they say that this october thirty first deadline has been agreed to. donald tusk with certain mention of that u.k. could still cancel products if they want to saying that there's plenty of other business we need to be dealing with about our joins us live now from brussels so natasha they have agreed to this deadline but it is clear these gentlemen want this
9:16 am
want this done. i'm for it i didn't really hear your question but yes they have agreed to a deadline that march our data here october thirty first that's what we had from the e.u. council president. he was just giving a press conference that we have to quote. of the commission it was very clear that both were extremely tired and it's not surprising because they have been up for many many hours discussing a possible extension to the e.u. and it's to grant the. you can say i should say i do it would seem that during those discussions it was very difficult indeed we have heard from officials that the president emanuel might call the french president was for a short extension he pushed back against a possible longer extension that had been discussed earlier in the evening in the end it seems a compromise was found in fact march the council president doubletalk said it was
9:17 am
a good thing that all twenty seven members of the e.u. had managed to form a unity find consensus and agree to this october thirty first deadline what is not so clear about though was whether or not that would be the final deadline in fact he seemed to sort of stops or a not quite find his words but it seems apparent that it might not be the final deadline that perhaps something else could happen in the future he said that that was still open it was still a possibility because before these talks have begun some does include again the french president is taking quite a hard line when it comes to the brakes it process had wanted there to be a final deadline to send a message to the u.k. that they can't keep asking for delays at some point this breaks that process has to be only because the longer it goes on the more disruptive it is to the e.u.'s agenda every day of business as a matter of fact john cloud anchor is very clear to say that there is one newspaper in particular that at least mention other e.u.
9:18 am
business but yes he definitely wants this done natasha butler thank you very much live from brussels. as well as prime minister has called for a general election on may eighteenth scott morrison is taking a third term for his consecutive coalition he's been in office sends august and is the third prime minister to lead a government divided over issues in leading climate change energy policy has played a role in australia's last six changes of prime minister. take a look at the headlines right now on al-jazeera european union leaders have offered u.k. prime minister theresa may like small extension to practice it until october thirty first european council president donald tusk speaking live now says the u.k. has agreed to it and that there will be a review in june it means the u.k. will not crash out of the e.u. on friday it will continue to see a corporation as
9:19 am
a full member state with all its rights and as a close friend and stress that in the future let me finish with the message go to our british friends. this extension this flexible as i expected it. and it's a little bit shorter than i expected but there's still enough. to find the first full solution. to a stiff start. is when my party has conceded defeat and the country's general election the announcement paves the way prime minister benjamin netanyahu to try and form a government yeah so support of a number of smaller right wing parties and as well on president nicolas maduro has called us president mike pence a racist sub prime assist and made the comment after pets called on the u.n.
9:20 am
security council to officially recognize opposition leader who is interim president . i see him going to be the vice president of the united states mike pence was ridiculous in the security council of the united nations if you can understand it is our going to cities races supremacy they believe me as superior to us they believe they give orders to venezuela to the world they believe they are the emperor who gives orders that governs the takes that gives no mr pants in venezuela you should not be president of the republic is not put here by you or donald trump . the u.n. chief is calling for a cease fire in libya to avoid bloodshed in tripoli the security council held an emergency meeting on the situation as the fighting there intensifies dozens of people have been killed in recent days that includes at least thirty fire fighters that is loyal to warlord khalifa haftar are his forces are trying to take the capital tripoli from the un backed government as the headlines keep air inside
9:21 am
story as that next. they fought an extremely tight race now embattled prime minister benjamin netanyahu looks likely to form israel's next government but if the country appears to drift further to the extreme right what sort of government might that be and how will it impact both israel and the region this is inside story.
9:22 am
hello everyone welcome to inside story on kemal santamaria there is no doubt saying benjamin netanyahu is a political survivor the israeli prime minister first took office way back in one thousand nine hundred ninety six and now in israel's twenty nineteen election he is once again in prime position to bring together a ruling coalition now that is not to say israel's elections weren't close they definitely were but it is ready politics is all about partnerships and the way netanyahu position to himself before the vote has meant finding support after it will be far easier for him and his likud party but what will it all mean for israel and the wider region remember netanyahu promised a lot before the vote controversial plans like an exciting west bank settlements but don't forget he's also been indicted on multiple counts of corruption in the first hearings could happen within weeks here's how some israelis felt about the election results. i think they might be naive because they felt that would be a change here to change for the better change going forward towards peace towards.
9:23 am
everything that it's better and i. am a bit scared to tell you always a great leader. is rarely a strong country. it's the world's country and i think it would be better. i don't think there'd. be enough experience with surrounded by right wing radical people who want to any more serious juries in this part we never going to have peace and i'm terribly upset to hear of these tangents and the shock of my life i was sure that this time we would win. terrible you can't just come out of nowhere and become a prime minister and the b.b.c. has all the experience and biggest achievements on his personal account it remains
9:24 am
to be seen what's going to happen with it. ok let's get into it let's bring in our panel for today starting in brussels with a key elder who was a columnist for al monitor israel pulse in london you'll see michael berg a professor in international relations at regents university specializes in israeli politics and rounding out the panel in west jerusalem mitchell barak is the c.e.o. of kievan global research but was also an advisor to the former israeli president shimon peres so welcome to all three of you gentlemen my first question it's a very simple one and i might get just a quick view from each of you on this is how did he do this benjamin netanyahu benny gantz was supposed to be a serious threats to him this time around and in fact even though it was close likud picked up five more seats than it did back in twenty fifteen. akiva let's start with your welcome all first of all i think they're the reason is that netanyahu no is
9:25 am
a magician he can play at the same time the big hero the master of. not only his whereabout he can. drive the whole world was you know his is side and see who are the first to congratulate him erotica rides in italy would be from india and now evil president trump said that this is unbelievable that this is good news for peace so in ateneo can best israelis that he is the number one diplomat not only israel not only the middle east in the world and. it seems that if you look at the votes in the south near gaza he got a majority of the people who keep complaining that they have to run for shelters and the government is not protecting them and yet he got the majorities of the
9:26 am
masses is that these wherries are afraid of change more than they are afraid of precise yes what do you reckon baby the magician. he is definitely a very skillful politician he knows how to play there is audiences in it not only you manage to regroup his base but also increases poll i think in many ways to a court said just a minute ago it's a place between the victim hood and playing the statesman it does almost to perfection any position himself in the to form a new government. in many in many cases actually to see what happens happen next but he can he can in many ways assemble around him designed in a way that the left which of the last decimated in this and this election and
9:27 am
pushing the entire agenda in a way that is convenient for him politically and it's very difficult to l.-u. if the result is he fortune not only for a split because survivor but also surviving out of a cold case and probably of jane mitchell barack i can't wait to hear what you've got to say because you've been smiling and shaking your head there tell me what you think. well i wouldn't call him a magician although a lot of people do because a magician means it's kind of a sleight of hand or an illusion and there's nothing sleight of hand about what he does he's very clear the people who vote for him know exactly what they're voting for i think the illusion really happens before the election the media is creating it maybe the attorney general in this case was creating it and that's the kind of illusion that takes place and that the new outcomes and says just like was said previously he's not only the best diplomat and representative of israel he's one of the most skills diplomats in the world the most skilled leaders in the world and
9:28 am
i've said it in the studio very few leaders can say they have a great relationship with president trump and very few can say they have a great relationship with vladimir putin he can say both and a lot of people go for the whole geo political package and say we want stability we want a leader we want someone that can keep the country moving forward the economy and everything else is we're on the right track so it didn't matter then michel to the electorate that prime minister netanyahu has been indicted for corruption and the hearings could begin quite soon i mean from the outside looking in it seems odd that should be a major factor in people's thinking. right well first of all he hasn't been indicted yet the attorney general recommends an indictment he gets a pre-hearing we're about a year away of possibly getting an indictment but no because what happened is it just embolden the people's preconceived notion of him meaning for the people that didn't like it and wanted him out and thought he's corrupt that this was just proof
9:29 am
that the attorney general has found corruption charges for the people that believe he's not only a great leader but he's being attacked unfairly by the media that he's being attacked unfairly by the police and what he says that because the left can't change the government and overthrow him in the ballot box they're doing it in the court room so they believe that any was able to leverage out and use that and that's what he successfully did so it did it matter to the people just to to to reassure them what they have felt already well gentlemen let's talk about the potential coalition composition you'll see that me start with you we know that prime minister netanyahu has the better chance of creating this but it will be forgive my phrasing his very it's a base he wanted a lot of smaller policies in which he will have to rely and will be going i suspect even more right wing. yes and the temptation of course if you want stability this is the first time that the two biggest parties have more than half
9:30 am
of the vote in the old and you know on seventy but this small spot really not going to happen it means that he have to to start coalition negotiation that the additional whole stating we've the small parties they have no reason to make it easy for them though you might see the outcome the endgame of all of it they know that he needs them more than ever all for both surviving in power and also to deal potentially for if not being indicted and i think the potential of being indicted and probably watch quicker than what was suggested is there. a might try to pass a legislation to stop it wiley's in office they understand the power that they have now and they would joke for positions within the ministry that would serve their their party's bear in mind those parties are not kitchell parties but more niche sector about this and they will try to fight for if each other and the likud party
9:31 am
for the best position so we can might take much longer than one expects you make the point you'll see that these two parties have more than half the vote is the idea of a blue and white i even against. likud coalition is that completely out of out of the question do you think it's just just the way the numbers stack up is interesting. well the numbers suggest that it's tempting but it depends what you believe what many gun said in public court or dissent behind closed doors and we called it that you might do it i think some of the blue and white as light as members of the likud to come over to germany from though and they might won't be part of the next government but i think there would be great resistance wishing the blue and white it's big business and so so and most among the likud party so i think at the end of the day it will go it's we've got to decide for the blue and white because it's not only the it's in their lines if they
9:32 am
want to find any group to stay together staying in the position and do it would be better that they were going into government ok and we'll talk more about the future of that party in a moment and i'll be back with akiva eldar shortly but i do just one have a little think about what prime minister netanyahu stands for what's the likely shape of his next term well top of the list or something netanyahu often pushes to the top of the list is iran he sees it as of course israel's biggest threat has called for much tougher sanctions against the islamic republic which is actually meant a bit of a thawing of relations with some arab countries he's taken steps to minimize the chances of palestinians ever having their own state even suggested his new government would an extent legal jewish settlements in the occupied west bank all of this of course comes as we've heard under the renewed support from the united states president trump already recognized jerusalem as israel's capital and then included the occupied golan heights as israeli territory just before the election but on the flip side as we've discussed netanyahu is fighting for political
9:33 am
survival in the face of a series of corruption allegations against sending a key in brussels all those things i mentioned there things like the prospect of there not being a palestinian state the prospect of an exciting settlements in the west bank are these just things do you think which prime minister netanyahu has said in the lead up to the election or do you think these are the types of things he will follow through on. theresa may is now addressing a media and wrestles let's listen. in you have agreed that the extension can be terminated when the withdrawal agreement has been rushed fide which is my key request of my fellow leaders for example this means that if we're able to pass a deal in the first three weeks of may we will not have to take part in european elections and will officially leave the e.u. on saturday the first of june. during the course of the extension the european council is clear that the u.k. will continue to hold full membership rights as well as its obligations as i said
9:34 am
in the room tonight there is only a single tear of e.u. membership with no conditionality attached beyond existing treaty obligations let me conclude by saying this i know that there is huge frustration from many people that i had to request this extension the u.k. should have left the e.u. by now and i sincerely regret the fact that i have not yet been able to persuade parliament to approve a deal which would allow the u.k. to leave in a smooth and orderly way but the choices we now face are stark and the timetable is clear so we must now press on that pace with our efforts to reach a consensus on a deal that is in the national interest tomorrow i will be making a statement to the house of commons further talks will also take place between the government and the opposition to seek a way forward i do not pretend that the next few weeks will be easy or there is a simple way to break the deadlock in parliament but we have
9:35 am
a duty as politicians to find a way to fulfill the democratic decision of the referendum deliver breaks it and move our country forward nothing is more pressing for more vital. i'll take a few questions laura. and thank you for having us there may be seen used and used you said just a few days ago as prime minister i could not consider a delay further beyond the thirtieth of june except that is exactly what you have agreed here in the early hours you know many people are going to be very furious about another poster breck's it but why should people consider that you are still the past and to preside over this well. what we have agreed tonight means that we can actually leave the european union before the thirtieth of june what we need is to ensure that we have an agreement in parliament that we can get through and get the necessary legislation ratified to enable us to leave i want us to leave the you
9:36 am
with an order with a deal so it's an orderly exit as soon as possible this decision enables us to do that beth. beth rick b. sky news prime minister yesterday one hundred seventy seven of your policy refused to support your extension plan when it ran to june thirtieth let alone october the thirty farce how can you still in good conscience remain the leader of the conservative party after green this extension tonight what i'm working to do is to ensure that as a government of conservative party in government we deliver on the result of the referendum that we deliver breaks it for the people of the united kingdom what this extension enables us to do is to go through the process that we've set up to enable parliament to come to a majority opinion on the way forward so that we can get that deal ratified and leave the european union and i want to do that as soon as possible if we're able to
9:37 am
do that before the twenty second of may then we don't have to hold those european parliamentary elections anybody else adjacent. as it goes in the daily battle tom said when you talk about who's going to leave before the thirtieth of june we could lift in forty eight hours you're promise we were going to leave in march you promised we were going to leave in a for now you said we might need by hallowing when do you feel you owe the country an apology over the last three months i have voted three times to leave the european union if sufficient members of parliament had voted with me in january we would already be out of the european union we haven't been able to get that majority in parliament as you know i have now been reaching out to find a way in which we can get an agreement that will come onto majority across the house of commons to ensure that we can put the legislation through we can ratify the withdrawal agreement have the withdrawal agreement bill through the house of commons and the house of lords so that we can ratify this agreement and leave the
9:38 am
european union i want to do that as soon as possible that's what i'm going to continue to work for george. george parker from the financial times a very quick question can the deadline of october thirty first be extended again i think thompson could be a more specific question you said there's only a single tear of e.u. membership but with the kind of conditions that the other member states wants to attach to our continued membership well as you will have seen from the decision that has come out of the council tonight it's very clear that we will continue to abide by our obligations and as i wrote in my letter to donald to us last week that we will continue to abide by our duty of sincere cooperation as members of the european union the council and the agreement that we've come to tonight is for that extension to the thirty first of october as i say i'm clear that we should all be
9:39 am
working now in the u.k. to make sure that we can find a way forward in parliament we can get a majority in parliament to ratify the withdrawal agreement and ensure that we can leave as soon as possible for. all run from one to the knees prime minister first we were leaving on the twenty ninth of march then it was the twenty second of may now it could be how do you think your party back home will consider this a trick or treat what i say is that we could have left on the twenty ninth of march we could be out of the european union now if parliament to a degree that with had a majority in parliament to agree that withdrawal agreement i had hoped that parliament would agree to ratify the withdrawal agreement such that we could have left on the twenty second of may if we can now find an agreement in parliament and put the legislation through in time we could still leave on the twenty second of may and not hold those european parliamentary elections what we must all be working for is to find a way that we can get a majority in parliament so that we can leave the european union deliver on the
9:40 am
referendum and do it is soon as possible. tipper. yes sorry i was looking. for it in the daily mirror and prime minister double talk suggested that we could keep on coming back and asking for extensions well confidence can you give the british people and your own party the brakes it will ever actually happen well i'm very clear that we must deliver as a government on bricks it we gave the parliament gave the referendum the choice to people in the referendum the government said that we would abide by the decision the british people took it is now our duty to deliver on that decision we could already have left the european union what i want to do now is to work to ensure that we get that majority in parliament so actually we can ratify this agreement leave the european union do it in an orderly way with a deal and do it as soon as possible thank you. ok so you've been listening to theresa may our u.k. prime minister and indeed confirming that she and the e.u.
9:41 am
have agreed to an out tobar thirty first deadline that extension rather brags that he's saying that it actually could happen earlier we've also heard earlier this evening from e.u. council president donald tusk and the e.u. commission president younker let's listen to that they will continue to see a corporation as a full member state with all its rights and as a close friend and trusted ally in the future let me finish it was a lesson to our british friends. this extension of flexible as expected. and a little bit shorter than they expected but there's still enough to find the best possible solution please. do not waste this time. in june when we meet again we will not be renegotiating among ourselves all the
9:42 am
u.k. greenman that was reach months ago because the wood green agreement must be respected in its entirety we don't want the withdrawal agreement to be called into question because that will jeopardize the backstop agreement we've negotiated with our irish friends. ok natasha butler is live there in brussels where all of this is happening all of these developments so. that now she will go to the house of commons tomorrow to discuss those two for a cent to resent this to them and the point of questions to her repeatedly were what's to make people think that you can get this done it's going to be a long road. well it's going to be a long road and i'm sure she knows that better than anyone what she is saying is that this agreement that was. offered to her this evening she's been offered
9:43 am

really exhausted because we are of course in the early hours of thursday but they made it very clear well that this was really an opportunity for a person you have a saying you know don't waste this opportunity because of course the growing frustration is being felt in the e.u. amongst us is that this brigs that process is simply taken too long it's a shadow of the e.u. agenda it's overshadowed the business here and they want to britons now take this and possibly trying to conclude this breaks it process and natasha. theresa may did say you know if we get this done sooner we can obviously leave before october i'm sure that they would want to get this done sooner so that there isn't all this confusion around the parliament elections but can you explain how things stand now with with what the u.k. will have to do with the elections. well one of the conditions of being granted this extension was that the u.k.
