talk about trade, the next best option is not a leap in the dark, it is to work on wto terms. countries like india and america have accelerated their sales into the european single market faster from outside the single market and we have from within. it's not solely about trade. it's about citizens rights as well. you area about citizens rights as well. you are a former secretary of state for northern ireland. when the irish foreign minister and deputy prime minister said today that more credible do minister said today that more credible dq was needed on this, do you accept that as a fair comment from him? citizens rights, we have been absolutely open and david davis made it clear early on that we would like to come to arrangements to reassure those 3 million european union citizens here and the i million british citizens living in the eu and that could have sorted

earlier and that has been quite unnecessary. that could have been done and it really annoys me, actually, that it has not been done. we welcome these people, they make a huge contribution and that could have been settled. i spent some time on this because i was the shadow secretary and going to northern ireland every week and i worked very closely with simon and he was tremendous as the irish agriculture minister wendy had the presidency of the eu. we worked very closely together and he's a really good, practical guide. what i would appeal to him is to say we have our border now. there is a currency board, a tax border, and excise duty border and i've been going, as i have said, very frequently, i have never met anyone in business or politics that has said this presents a problem and with goodwill, this is easily soluble. the sums of money or not that huge. the bid 5% of northern

ireland's trade going south of the border and 1.6 of the republic of ireland's exports going north. most of this business on the border is local. it tankers of milk from the same form, the same blood, the same tag are going to the same day every day. that is easily soluble with goodwill. it is easily soluble with modern methods of transport and when you think that's a mini borders in the world are being speeded up by the world are being speeded up by the electronic measures. i don't see it as insurmountable. you've talked about a scenario where there is no deal. he has talked about these rules. the whole process is about more than trade, albeit traders are hugely important part of it. we have seen today, for example, the social mobility board standing them because they are saying progress is not being made and the government is too

distracted by brexit. do you have any real sense that there is serious planning for a no deal scenario beyond the whole issue of trade? planning for a no deal scenario beyond the whole issue of trade ?|i must beyond the whole issue of trade?” must say, i do to get those members standing down, given that it was originally on mental health and nevis government has actually done it. they have made some major steps forward so i do not buy that the government isjust on forward so i do not buy that the government is just on one track. there are huge benefits to every citizen if we achieve proper brexit. an enormous reduction in food costs, closing costs, a big boost to every single family as that really helps most disadvantaged families right across the uk and a significant oblast in economic activity, which would generate, they reckon, 60 billion a year. do you think enough

planning has been made for the technicalities of how the government will bash at the country will be run in the event of a no deal scenario is to mark you have to speak to ministers. they say a huge mid of work has been done behind the scenes but at what was very interesting is the brexit commend —— the brexit committee, those that voted remain, the locally pushing at the customs representatives and seeing the customs would be a nightmare and getting a flat now. what they administered dutchman administrators —— what the administrators need to know is the need to have clarity. what we're saying is that we wish the prime minister of the very best and really hope the european negotiators were called to the fact that we must start talking about the end arrangements, which ideally should be reciprocalfree trade end arrangements, which ideally should be reciprocal free trade with an tariff, but that they don't, we will begin to make their own arrangements around those terms

which they will have to go along with as well. we must leave it there. thank you very much. time for a look at the weather. it all starts on a mundane zero. large it is of cut—throat —— cloud and sunshine as well. central and eastern areas will see the lion's share of the clues bills and we have those clear skies could be a touch of frost and maybe some fog patches as well. temperatures here shoot in the main hold above freezing. 0n the mundy, not a bad looking the. large areas of cloud, the thickest of which could produce the odd spot of rain but it is a largely dry day with some stills of some chain and temperatures not doing too badly for the time of year. as they looked deeper into the week, after that

quiet and mostly fine start, the middle of the week will bring some very wet and windy weather and the end of the week will turn colder and with that cold here, sofas will get to see some snow. —— with that cold here, sofas will get to see some show. —— some with that cold here, sofas will get to see some snow. —— some of us with that cold here, sofas will get to see some snow. —— some of us will get to see some snow. hello. this is bbc news. the headlines: 0n the eve of a crucial meeting for the prime minister in brussels, a group of leading brexiteers, demand guarantees, before any divorce bill is paid. all four board members of the government's social mobility commission have resigned, in protest at what they see as a lack of progress towards a "fairer britain". donald trump hits out at the fbi in a series of angry tweets, claiming the agency's reputation is in tatters. now on bbc news, sportsday. hello, i'm 0lly foster

at the bbc sport centre. these are our headlines tonight: england are on the back—foot in the second ashes test in adelaide. it was almost unlucky 13 for manchester city, but the winning run continues with another late show, this time against the hammers. and history for hewett, he's the first british singles champion at the wheelchair masters. some late goals, a late try and ronnie 0'sullivan coming up

but we'll start with another difficult day for england's cricketers. joe root‘s decision to bowl first was made to look even more foolhardy on the second day in adelaide as australia declared on a42 for 8 in the 2nd ashes test. england, who are already one down in the series, closed on 29 for 1. here's our sports correspondent andy swiss. shaun marsh has had a stop start career. he seemed shaun marsh has had a stop start career. he seemed a shaun marsh has had a stop start career. he seemed a strange selection to many but as he completed a brilliant thing today, it suddenly made sense. in the kitchen for him and euphoria for this pretty much summed up england's today. a moment they would rather forget. a symbol of england balls struggles as marcia simply piled on the misery. 42 —— 442—8, england we re the misery. 42 —— 442—8, england were they mental decline. the floodlights and the fiercest pressure at the openers needing a

solid start. they did not get it. australia were in the control. it was cricket at its most compelling. cook survived another big appeal and income would just today but then, in the nick of time, the rain arrived, ending play for the day but leaving the visitors facing a huge backing challenge. it's not impossible to score runs. there's a lot of time left in the game. it'll be up to one or two of oui’ game. it'll be up to one or two of our case to go out and make a big score, not just a0 our case to go out and make a big score, notjust a0 or 50. our case to go out and make a big score, notjust 40 or 50. for england, a frustrating and deflating day. they now need to bat at the very best if they are to save this match and, realistically, save the ashes hopes. ben stokes' involvement in the ashes is still dependent on the cps, as they decide whether or not he'll face charges for assault. he played his first match

for canterbury in new zealand today and it was one to forget. he was bowled forjust two runs as they lost to 0tago in the one day cup. the england all—rounder also bowled nine overs but failed to take a wicket. their next match is on wednesday. manchester city have won again, that's 13 in a row in the premier league, but they left it late again, their third 2—1 victory in a row secured in the final 10 minutes. they trailed west ham at half time at the etihad but they found a way and their lead at the top of the table is back to 8 points, tim hague reports. when you were top of the table, eve ryo ne when you were top of the table, everyone wants to be your friend. for west ham, the life as a little lonely. 0n for west ham, the life as a little lonely. on one from manchester city, ineligible to appear in this match, a marriage that had city victory

written all over it, yet the hosts found his replacement in fine form. the estimates were equally impressive in the first half. it was easy to forget this team was to a— it needle in evertonjust easy to forget this team was to a— it needle in everton just days ago. you'd be where it competing and ahead at city rate at half time. food believe never fails ahead at city rate at half time. food believe neverfails to surprise, but would west ham hang on? he could not stop what came next. gabriel houses, into 0tamendi and pressure told. pressure that did not let up. invariably, quality strange fruit, kevin de bruyne have plenty of that and combined for a wonderful winning goal. city extend their lead at the top but another late winner. west ham remain in real trouble but life will be less lonely, with more performances like this. it was quite similar. i thought,

once we were in the second half, we wa nt to once we were in the second half, we want to score and won the game. today was different. it was massive, no chances, they played ten players inside the box, so it's almost impossible, but we didn't concede too much and another big victory. for long periods, but it was good to be ready. we didn't limit them with possession but we limited them with clear—cut chances. goalkeeper made a few chintzy 's —— catches when he had to. we may be arguably had the best one chances in the first half. there was one other match

in the premier league and it was all square on the south coast. 1—all between bournemouth and southampton. rangers are up to second in the scottish premiership on goal difference. they've jumped above aberdeen after beating them 2—1 at pittodrie. stuart pollitt reports. second place in the table at stake and aberdeen ‘s manager are odds—on favourite in the running to become the next rangers boss. plenty of sun and —— sideshows at petrol driven but the main event, rangers took an early lead. the conjoined delivery

and dannyjohnson ‘s delivered a looping header —— header looping into the far corner. the a5 minutes before aberdeen got close and they couldn't have come much closer. abdi considine rattled the bar. rangers remained a call but then when the man down. the former dons midfielder ryan jackson saw a red man down. the former dons midfielder ryanjackson saw a red and the referee decided this was a stamp on jack's balls called stomping ground. but did not seem to affect the rangers much. a second. aberdeen hit back immediately come often the teenager substitute making quite an impression. they could not force an equaliser. rangers have taken six points off the dons in a week, next will they take the manager as well? we've had nine more second round ties in the fa cup, the biggest uspet, non—league woking are in the third round draw after drawing with league one peterborough. joe ward firing home

this late equaliser for the national league side to force a replay. woking last played in the third round in 1997. alfie hewett has become the first british singles winner at the end of season wheelchair masters. the teenager beat compatriot gordon reid. fellow brit andy lapthorne was outclassed in the quarterfinal, though. ronnie 0'sullivan is looking like the man to beat at snooker‘s uk championship the defending champion mark selby was knocked out yesterday in york but there was no problem for 0'sullivan, who's going for a record—equalling

sixth uk title. he wasn't at his best against michael georgiou but still won by six frames to one. the world number four goes into the third round where he'll face either michael white or matthew selt. another former uk champion is into round three, but shaun murphy survived a major scare against the world number 69 liam highfield. highfield was 5—a up and in control when he missed this red. that proved a turning point and murphy came through in a dramatic deciding frame. 6—5 it finished. have you seen the room? you will need to explain this. it was a film that was so valid it

spawned a cult following. now we have james franco, playing with the original director, directing and producing, based on a book by the co—star of the original form, now played by james franco co—star of the original form, now played byjames franco balls brother, david. essentially, gregor isa brother, david. essentially, gregor is a wannabe actor and we first meet him in the theatre studies thing, would he is doing a terrible version of waiting for godot. then tommy comes in as does this arriving acting peace and the clickers entranced and says he is so uninhabited, how do you do it? together, they go to los angeles and decide they will make it but hollywood rejects them and tommy, who appears to have no fixed age or accent and untold wealth and the his the room?

the room ? today, the room? today, you will read it. you did this. of course. you will play mark. you want me to play mark? it's a huge role. are you sure? if you don't want to do it, fine. johnny depp is available. i want the role. it's like you said, hollywood rejects is, we do lead on 01. you have money to do this? i have. it's i'io have money to do this? i have. it's no problem. you really going to make the same? we are pointed at. mark to slash 2010 student that club. —— mark just laughed mark to slash 2010 student that club. —— markjust laughed 20 times during that club. he says he is from norwich ——

neurons but his accent changes all the time. there was a by tim burton about edward. the reason that from what is that you didn't think he was a terrible film maker, have generally, you believed in him even though the film was terrible. in this case, tommy seems to believe the film she is making is that tennessee williams level drama and the fuse he is making an incredible piece of art and the reason it works that way is that all the awful direction, they are all there but it works because you also believe that beyond that, there is something of pathos, something of tragedy, something of the dream about tommy that makes them acceptable and we see him be appallingly onset and the film does not shy away from the fact that on said he did behave really, really badly.
