2:09 pm
customer brought the single market off, the european union would apply to northern on and trade position within the u. k. backs where they don't think that the has a role to play, so they gotta go through it. they've got to make sure that they take that time and get it right and that's when they get to come to that decision. okay, thank you for that. we'll re challenge that 1st live in belfast. ah, takia has began work to rebuild the homes if one and a half 1000000 people that have been destroyed in the powerful earthquakes that struck the south. the country over 50000 people were killed in turkey in syria. and with elections just months away, present on his pledge to rebuild as soon as possible. his government is under pressure to prioritize safety standards. hasha met her by reports from cut amendment ash, levant turner has come back to his neighborhood in got
