years of independence from britain. good morning, and welcome to bbc news. european union leaders are meeting in brussels to formally agree their negotiating stance for brexit. the president of the european council, donald tusk, has said the eu won't discuss its trading relationship with the uk until it's happy that enough progress has been made on settling the costs of britain's departure. we already know the areas the eu wants to negotiate first. the remaining members are keen to ensure the rights of the three—million eu citizens living in britain. they will also be looking to get a guarantee of britain's financial contributions. the so—called "divorce bill"

is the amount the eu says the uk must pay as part of existing financial commitments. northern ireland is also on their agenda. eu leaders say they want to ensure there is no hard border with the irish republic. this is not the choreography that the government had hoped for. ministers wanted to discuss the divorce settlement at the same time. theresa may had previously indicated the uk government would want to discuss the divorce settlement and a future trade deal at the same time. but the eu insists a deal needs to wait until the settlement is sorted. the guidelines say "a non—member of the union cannot have the same rights and enjoy the same benefits as a member." that may affect issues such as the single market, freedom of movement and taxes. they also say an agreement on the future uk—eu relationship "can only be concluded once the uk has become a third country." in other words, once it has officially left the eu. my colleague ben brown is in brussels.

good morning to you. good morning to you. the eu leaders started to arrive at this summit, the summit of the 27 remaining eu nations. britain is not here at this summit because it is to stamp and finalised how the eu negotiates the brexit talks with the uk over the next couple of yea rs. the uk over the next couple of years. donald tusk has made it a very clear that they cannot have paralleled talks on a trade relationship and the divorce settlement, which could cost as much as 16 billion euros. the donald tusk has said that, really, the relationship with britain, the past has do be sorted out before the future can be spoken about. he has also said that apart from the

financial settlement, there has to be agreement, particularly on the future of eu nationals living in the united kingdom. we also need solid guarantees for all citizens and their families who will be affected by brexit on both sides. this must be the number one priority. for the eu and the uk. and the commission has already prepared a precise and detailed list of citizens rights. these other rights we want to protect. finally, we need to remain united. it is only then that we will be able to conclude the negotiations. so this is also in the

uk's interests. that was donald tusk speaking as he arrived at the summit a few minutes ago stressing how much united the eu 27 are in their strategy on negotiating brexit with britain. the subtext of that is if britain. the subtext of that is if britain theresa may are trying a policy of divide and rule among the 27 remaining states, they will fail in that. this summit takes place on the backdrop of what angela merkel was saying, that some in britain have allusions of what might be achieved by brexit. theresa may replied by saying the remaining countries in the eu are lining up to oppose is. some hostility in the days leading up to the summit. let us days leading up to the summit. let us talk to chris morris now who has been watching some of the leaders as they arrive. very much unity is the watchword of the 27 nations. they arrive. very much unity is the watchword of the 27 nationsm

they arrive. very much unity is the watchword of the 27 nations. it is quite surprising. i have covered another issues where there have not been unity. 0ne senior official was saying, don't forget, it took nine months for the uk to come up with the article 50 letter. it has only taken one month to come up with the response. there are differences of emphasis. the polls are understandably more concerned than others about, for example, the rights of eu citizens in the uk because there are so many polls that. the dutch would like talks on trade as soon. but they are also saying that the uk has to do pay their bills. the unity is really there, and when theresa may says they are all banging up against is, there is an element of what did you expect? you decided to leave the clu b expect? you decided to leave the club and we are sticking together. donald tusk, he has made it clear that there has to be sufficient progress on the divorce settlement,

as it has been turned, the financial deal, what the uk has to pay and the question of the irish border, the hardbody between question of the irish border, the ha rdbody between northern question of the irish border, the hardbody between northern ireland and the republic of ireland. in those three areas, he says there has to be sufficient progress before there can be talks about the future, a possible trade relationship. but britain did not want that?” a possible trade relationship. but britain did not want that? i mean, the united kingdom wanted to talk about trade straightaway. i think it is something that will be discussed at the summit today, what does sufficient progress actually mean? i do not think it means coming up with a number, 60 billion euros, no euros as some of the tory backbenchers would like. it means coming up with a very carefully defined methodology about what should be included in that bill. so the rest of the eu

wants the uk to be under no illusion of how big the bill could be. you mentioned what angela merkel said about allusions in the uk. it is notable she made those remarks after jean—claude juncker was at downing street. he spoke to mrs merkel in the aftermath of that meeting on downing street and i did detect talking to officials yesterday, that the expectations in london are very different to the expectations in many other european capitals. they know there is an election going on in the uk and people say during election campaigns differently, but i think there is genuine concern, particularly on the financial settlement, but things are growing. thank you for the moment, chris. eu officials are stressing that as well as the unity that we have been talking about, their real aim is

damage limitation, to do as little damage limitation, to do as little damage to the whole brexit process. both to the uk and the rest of the eu, the remaining 27 eu states. damage limitation is one of the watchword here as well. as chris was saying, unity is what they have been talking about. an indication of that is showing how brief the summit is going to be. it is schedule 3.5 hours. essentially a working much. 0ne item on the agenda, and that is brexit. thank you very much. you will be there for us during the day talking about the developments in brussels. north korea has test fired a ballistic missile. according to south korean and american officials, the launch, from an airfield in pukchang, camejust hours according to south korean and american officials, tt exploded shortly after take—off. president trump has condemned this

launch. barbara plett—usher reports. after weeks of mounting concern in washington about north korea, the secretary of state arrived at the united nations to make his case. un sanctions aren't working, was the message. there needs to be a new campaign of pressure. and he clarified the stakes. ultimately this is being driven by america's own national security considerations, he said, so it's serious. with each successive detonation and missile test, north korea pushes north—east asia and the world closer to instability and broader conflict. the threat of a north korean nuclear attack on seoul or tokyo is real, and it is likely only a matter of time before north korea develops the capability to strike the us mainland. despite un pressure, north korea's been able to accelerate its weapons programme, and shortly after mr tillerson

spoke, it fired another missile, although that test seems to have failed. the trump administration is keeping open the threat of military action in case of further provocations. the latest missile test probably won't be enough of a trigger for that, but it may help strengthen international resolve to put the economic squeeze on north korea's determined young leader. barbara plett—usher, bbc news, at the united nations in new york. theresa may will campaign in scotland today for the first time since calling the general election. the conservatives currently hold one scottish seat at westminster, but opinion polls suggest support for the party in scotland is growing. meanwhile jeremy corbyn will urge young people to "claim their future" by voting labour in the election when he speaks in east london shortly. he will highlight figures that show 2.4 million young voters are missing from the electoral register. 0ur political correspondent ellie price is here. let us start with something else.

ukip happening. we are expecting purple smoke to come over hartlepool where paul mathilde, the ukip leader, will announce where he will stand as an election... it could be boston in skegness, which is another pa rt boston in skegness, which is another part of the country which is most strongly voted to leave the eu. they think they have a strong chance that. we heard a lot about paul nuttall, he did not know whether he was going to stand as a candidate, with the question of what is the point of ukip. yesterday he said he would charge from the front and stand as a candidate. 0k, let us go to scotland. the banister in scotland, for the first time since she called the general election, she

said the conservatives will strengthen her hand in brexit negotiations. the smp, leader, nicola sturgeon, will be out campaigning. saying the snp is the only party that can stop the tories. it seems a two horse race up there, leaving behind labour. it seems as a narrative on both sides when they try to pick up votes, and there has been a recent poll in scotland that suggested the tories could pick up seven extra seats there. theresa may knows as well as anyone else that the polls cannot be trusted. recent experience shows that! finally, the labour leader, jeremy corbyn. he is out in london talking about voter registration, that's nearly 2.5 million young people and not on the register. that they need to register to vote to claim their future. apathy will confirm the tory seats. the lib dems are also out, tim

farron is out in leeds. he has talked about his ambition to become leader of the opposition. 0ne talked about his ambition to become leader of the opposition. one week m, leader of the opposition. one week in, a lot of campaigning going on. it will be a busy you. solicitors representing patients of a breast surgeon, found guilty of carrying out a series of needless operations, say the true number of his victims could be in the hundreds — or even thousands. ian paterson was found guilty of intentionally wounding his patients at two private hospitals in the west midlands. simon clemison reports. patients are meant to be able to trust their doctor, but ian paterson practised at the exact opposite and betrayed his patients on some scale. he told people they were at risk of cancer and operated on them unnecessarily. the breast surgeon worked in private and nhs hospitals in the west midlands, and while staff in the public sector now hold each other to account, lawyers representing some of the victims are today calling for a full, independent enquiry into oversite of private sector healthcare. 0ne senior surgeon says

there is some way to go. no matter what the quality of surgery is in the private sector, there is much less observation going on and much less recording of detail than there is in the nhs. the private provider where paterson operated, spire healthcare, operated has told the bbc: shirley maroney‘s sister, marie, was one of ian paterson's nhs patients. the surgeon originally carried out an incomplete mastectomy, instead of the double mastectomy she'd asked for. she then had a further double mastectomy, which delayed her chemotherapy. my sister was a police officerfor 30 years, she believed in the justice system and she believed in fairness, and quite frankly this wasn't fair, this wasn'tjust what happened to her. marie died in 2008 of secondary cancer in her lungs. it's impossible to know the extent

to which ian paterson's failures contributed to her death. the criminal case centred on the treatment of nine other women and one man, but solicitors say there are hundreds of patients now looking for compensation. ian paterson has been told he'll face prison when he's sentenced next month. simon clemison, bbc news. with me is emma doughty, clinical negligence solicitor at the firm slater and gordon. they are representing some of the women affected. thank you for talking to us this morning. what sort of people are you representing? we are representing previous patients admitted paterson who have been treated in the nhs and in the arrive at hospital. i'm guessing the private ones have been settled, largely. largely, yes. people hearing about this today will

say this is so astonishing a failure by the authorities in some way and the behaviour of mr paterson extraordinary itself will stop where do you think the failings really like? i think the failings are within the management system in the private sector and the nhs. i think what is most concerning, inc having seen what i have seen, how unregulated the private sector is. i do not think people realise that people that was not seem to be the appropriate checks in place. what struck me was that he seemed to work alone. he's come up with diagnosis and carried on and operated alone. there must have been other people around, surely? there must have been, but there does not seem to be any of that evidence of them in the ca re of any of that evidence of them in the care of these patients. i think it

must have been the case that he was surrounded with his people off choice. you have dealt with many of their women affected. to have eight have a clue of what was happening. there were many theories. money is one of them. he wanted to do lots of surgeries and be paid for them and be seen to be doing that. what has become apparent to talking to his former patients is he enjoyed the power that it gave him of being the one that could help these women and these men who, at fundable times in their lives, and then they went back to him again and again. he is facing a prison sentence, he was warned that. there may be a civil case against him has well, and you are pursuing. many thought it was

opening shot, but there is lots of legal argument to come. a civil case is going to trial in october. very grateful to you coming in. thank you very much indeed. the time is 1019 am. the headlines on bbc news: european union leaders meet in brussels to agree joint guidelines for brexit negotiations. north korea test—fires another ballistic missile. donald trump says it shows "disrespect" to china. theresa may will campaign in scotland today for the first time since calling the general election. sport now, and for a full round—up from the bbc sport centre, here's mike bushell. good morning. he believes that the klitschko will

not have the power that anthony juster has. the fighters weighed in with anthonyjoshua £10 heavier. it is his first fight since losing his belts to tyson fury in 2015, but this is klitschko's 69th professional contest. joshua has had just 18. i'd like, six foot six aps. a good fighter but one i will have two come up against myself. i am ready to go as far as i need to go to get the win. i have shown before, and that is all it is, i have got the skill and determination, but i am willing to dig deep. now is the right time, the opportunity is there. opportunities are not coming every day, the opportunity is there. i have one of the rising stars in anthonyjoshua, it's perfect. who would have else have fought ifjoshua wouldn't be there? nobody.

in the premier league, it could be a sad afternoon for sunderland, who take on bournemouth at the stadium of light. david moyes's side can be relegated, if they fail, to at least match hull city's result at southampton. we'll need a really, really good run of results for things to go our way but while there's a chance we're not going to admit to anything else. so we've got to try and win. we have done and said in every other game that we've got to try and win and we've not done so. what i'd say about this one is we're at home, we've got a great chance, we played quite well in recent games so we'll take that into the game and hope we can get a result from it. less than a week, after being beaten in the scottish cup semifinal by their biggest rivals, rangers today have the chance to gain some revenge in the league. celtic have already won the title and beat their glasgow neighbours 2—0 at hampden park last sunday. the midday kick off at ibrox, will see rangers try to inflict, celtic‘s first domestic defeat of the season. rangers need to win to give

themselves a chance of catching second place aberdeen, who are nine points ahead. final practice ahead of qualifying for the russian grand prix is under way at the sochi autodrome. ferrari came out on top in yesterday's sessions, with championship leader sebastian vettel more than half a second quicker than the mercedes of valtteri bottas and rival lewis hamilton. justin rose and his partner henrik stenson were among some big name players who missed the cut at golf‘s revamped new orleans classic team event. england's rose and stenson of sweden needed a birdie on the final hole to avoid an early exit, but the two major winners both found the water. they did finish their round with a six—under—par 66, but on a day of low scoring that wasn't enough to get them into the weekend as the cut was made at seven—under. world number three, jason day, and world number the semi—finals of the world snooker championship will be concluded today.

perfect storm of pressures which could have dire consequences, they say, for pupils. the conservatives are planning a fresh wave of grammars, but labourand are planning a fresh wave of grammars, but labour and the liberal democrats are strongly against them. this tuition centre in kent is popular with parents who hope it will help their children when their place at a local grammar school. a wave of this is to be a key plank of the manifesto. theresa may they can boost social mobility. the mix, the demographic of children we have coming to our centres is not exclusively middle—class at all. i think it is a racial parents, especially in areas —— aspirational pa rents. especially in areas —— aspirational parents. today her parents will be asked to vote on a motion to x
