rise of the far right. i have a message to all the white supremacists and nazis who came to cha rlottesville supremacists and nazis who came to charlottesville today. the message is plain and simple, go home, you are not wanted in this great commonwealth. shame on you. many in the states are concerned that the far right has been emboldened by the tram presidency. yesterday's rally was attended by neo—nazi sympathisers as well as members of the ku klux klan. what happened in cha rlottesville has been the ku klux klan. what happened in charlottesville has been a major domestic test for the president. he is now under pressure over the balance here and over what the house democratic leader has cold the shameful reality of white supremacist and in america today. caroline hawley, bbc news. the uk will need a transition period to help businesses adjust after brexit, the chancellor and the international trade secretary have insisted. in a joint article for the sunday telegraph, philip hammond and liam fox stressed any deal would not be indefinite or a "back

thatis what‘s at the end of that period and that is the kind of state of... loss of sound... i am afraid we are having too many problems with that line. colleges for that. we will try and bejoin him later. in other news, here is a question, how many people does it take to change the 225,000 light bulbs on local tower during the illuminations? where‘s barry has the job of checking every single one of them before the big switch on which is just a couple of weeks away and our reporter has been along to meeting. it‘s approaching that time of year again when all eyes are on blackpool for the big switch—on. got to get a few... here‘s the man making sure the main attraction doesn‘t disappoint. wesley berry‘s in charge of checking every single led here on the blackpool tower ahead of big switch—on. that‘s a lot to look at, 225,000 to be precise. i have to admit, it‘s the one time of the year my heart starts to flutter on switch—on night.
