brexiteers has suggested that voters can use the next general election to have their say on a final deal with the european union and to force a future government to change course if they don't like it. the environment secretary, michael gove, makes his comments in the daily telegraph, a day after theresa may's agreement in brussels cleared the way for trade talks. the cabinet is expected to meet in the next fortnight to discuss britain's future relationship with the eu. this was the reaction of andrea leadsom, the leader of the house of commons and a prominent leave campaigner when she spoke to bbc radio 4 earlier.

sovereign governments are always in a position to undertake and then subsequently to make different arrangements, should the will of the people be that they do that. i don't really see that this is getting us anywhere. it is the case in a sovereign parliament that the voters can choose to take a country in a different direction. also speaking to bbc radio 4, the former conservative leader and leave supporter, iain duncan smith, said regulatory alignment did not necessarily mean having the same regulations as the eu. the regulations may be different but the effect is important, this is the key bit. what is the effect of what you do? that is in our interest generally, even after a trade arrangement to ensure that between our major trade partners, there is a sense of alignment. the key here is the next phase from what will happen

on the trade discussions? i think this will be the bruising difficult bit but it's the vital bit. let's speak to the conservative mp and former party chairman, grant shapps. he joins me via webcam from his constituency in hertfordshire. good morning. thank you for being with us. let me ask you, what is your take on the agreement that mrs may reached with the eu in the early hours of yesterday morning? may reached with the eu in the early hours of yesterday morning ?|i may reached with the eu in the early hours of yesterday morning? i have taken the time to read the full 15 page agreement and i have to say it looks like a pretty balanced affair. i would say that whether you were a brexiteer or a domain. it looks to bea brexiteer or a domain. it looks to be a deal that has common sense written right through it. you want to wonder why it took the eu so long. iam reassured by to wonder why it took the eu so long. i am reassured by net. when

sections of it, it is saying we're going to have to come back to this, trust us, we're going to look at this in more detail. some of it is a classic furniture. something the eu is capable of. but to be fair, so are we. if you look back at former agreements on the good friday agreement, the 1998 agreements with northern ireland, you will notice to fight about how we are operating. there are differences and exceptions. this is nothing more extreme than that. where i was a bit reassured is he continuance of the european court of justice, the ecj. this is a significant win for the uk government. it does say that it will be optional whether the courts ask the ecj after we leave and then whether they take on the ecj's advice. that is better than many people would have been expecting.

but for those who have strong views that the ecj should not have any role in the uk, even given the judges the option will be a hard compromise to swallow. they will say thatis compromise to swallow. they will say that is a long way away from bickley estate as the prime minister made in the past that the court ofjustice won't have any say. leave it to the hardline brexiteers to tell you whether they agree or not. when i read that document it clearly says the courts can but don't have too referred to the ecj. that whole process will time—out anyway after eight years. if you add a brexiteer and you want to say that looks good, the many side made sense. we will continue paying until 2019. we are looking for a transition period and it seems to me at the better end of

what people would have worried about. i think the government has done pretty well on this. i was surprised and pleased to see the outcome yesterday morning. it does mean that as little bit of stability going forward for business and that eu citizens living here and brit living abroad which has become a contentious issue. does it mean you no longer want theresa may to leave downing street? i have been very clear about my views but i don't see any point hammering on about them every day. credit where credit is due, this is a sensible deal. if we can due, this is a sensible deal. if we ca n follow due, this is a sensible deal. if we can follow that through in the further negotiations with europe thatis further negotiations with europe that is good for britain. that is what has mattered. my views have not changed. i have been completely open about them. it is for others to decide. but let's get on and get the best possible deal for britain. what about michael gove's observation in

the telegraph today that if people don't like it, they can vote the tories out in the next election. that would leave a jeremy corbyn government, presumably. it might be a minority government bet how would that be reopened ? a minority government bet how would that be reopened? what ways as possible for voters to get you out that they can change a deal that is done as mac i saw was michael was saying. i don't think there was anything remarkable or surprising in it. the elected it will make a bunch of decisions about the brexit deal thatis of decisions about the brexit deal that is being negotiated but what parties are promising to do, pledging to do in future. it doesn't seem to be surprising if there will be, in part, a referendum on this. going forward people will be interested in what is the health

service looking like, are the schools delivering better education? i'll be building homes? the next election, just like the 2015th one, like every election in the past, there is a referendum on what you have done on the past but on your ma nifesto for have done on the past but on your manifesto for the future. the next election will be no different. people will take a view overall rather than one specific issue.|j appreciate that point. in terms of this reassurance he appears to be offering some if you don't like this you can get something better or different in whatever way you don't like it, if you vote in a particular way ina like it, if you vote in a particular way in a general election. the deal will have been done, the brexit steel blue have been done, and not only that the transition will have happened but they will be a trade deal between britain and the eu and we can't tear that up. it is

absolutely true what michael said. if you voted in 2015 for a party offering a referendum you might get a referendum on the outcome might mean you will leave europe. if you wa nt mean you will leave europe. if you want just another referendum mean you will leave europe. if you wantjust another referendum in 2022 and another decision on europe, then the party can offer that in the 2022 election. i think that's what the lib dems will do. if you believe we've got to a set of decision and a pretty good dealfor we've got to a set of decision and a pretty good deal for britain, we've got to a set of decision and a pretty good dealfor britain, and i hope that is what we will end up with, you will vote for the party with, you will vote for the party with vision for the future about all sorts of other things. what he said is true. it is true in the same way you always get an option in an election. we are already starting to talk about the next election! real pleasure to speak to you. thank you.

it isa pleasure to speak to you. thank you. it is a reasonable point he is making. all governments, if you don't like what they do, you can check them out and the next lot can come in and change the agreements. but that presumes the eu would be willing to change whatever agreement we get. we're getting beyond ourselves. we've got to get the agreement and then they will have to be an election. that is a few years away. the point that grand shapps was responding to their is what is michael gove has said. he is stating the obvious, if we don't like the terms of the deal purely by definition because we have left the european union, will be able to it. we can't do it on our own, we would have to do it through a negotiating process with the eu. what michael gove was doing in that article was

using brexit as a case in point to demonstrate that we are, as he would put it, taking back control. interesting to hear grand shapps describing this as balance. that demonstrates it is suitably vague as to provide the government with... he described it as fudge. the agreement that has been niche between the uk and brussels is perhaps something of a stopgap. it is there on page one, and the caveat nothing is agreed until everything is agreed. it is important to remember that. there are some big issues which have been worked out but it is lacking in detail in a lot of areas and the work is yet to come. 0ur political correspondence, thank you very much. this is good run and run. as cluster paris now. to see

the scenes. that is quite something. that is the turnout for the commemoration prolific the potters like that of the day —— life of johnny hallyday. he was described as the french elvis. when he was a young man starting out, many older people work critical of him. he is going to be carried, the coughing is going to be carried, the coughing is going to be flanked by motorcycle as traders. it is going to head along the citystate and it is going to go toa the citystate and it is going to go to a church which is where the french president will say a few words. it shows you how important a day this is for people who love music in france. hugh schofield will

be joining music in france. hugh schofield will bejoining us music in france. hugh schofield will be joining us and music in france. hugh schofield will bejoining us and tell is music in france. hugh schofield will be joining us and tell is what will be joining us and tell is what will be happening later on. the foreign secretary borisjohnson is in iran this morning to press for the release of the british iranian woman, nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe and other dual nationals on humanitarian grounds. mrs zaghari—ratcliffe is serving a five—year prison term on charges of trying to overthrow the iranian government which she denies. this is an important day, notjust nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe who has been locked up into for the last 16 months but also for her family who have been campaigning tirelessly for her release. we know this morning the foreign office has confirmed borisjohnson has the foreign office has confirmed boris johnson has in the foreign office has confirmed borisjohnson has in teheran, he has got these talks scheduled this morning. he will be feeling under pressure. he said that nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe had then in iran training journalists, something he later apologised for an something

she and her family have strongly denied. someone who has been campaigning for her release is the labourmp, tulip sadik, campaigning for her release is the labour mp, tulip sadik, who had this to say. borisjohnson was not to say. boris johnson was not going to to say. borisjohnson was not going to rant just to release nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe just to release nazanin zaghari— ratcliffe and there just to release nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe and there should be no expectations. i did ask whether he would be raising the fact she needs to be released on humanitarian grounds. he will be raising it with the iranian authorities that it was made clear that we should not expect any miracles. the one thing i did ask which richard radcliffe and the family have been asking, is whether he can arrange for the visa for her husband to go to iran. richard hasn't been able to go to the country to visit his wife in prison because he hasn't been granted a visa for the last 19 months. today has a meeting isn't unjust and

nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe. boris johnson will want to discuss the iran nuclear deal and it is about building up the diplomatic relationship between the uk and iran. going back to nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe, a court appearance is scheduled for tomorrow. at this stage we're not sure if she will appear. that is every possibility but nothing has been confirmed. all eyes will be watching closely as this meeting goes between borisjohnson and his iranian counterpart. we have had a tweet from the foreign secretary. we will bring you more on boris johnson's visit to iran. officials in gaza say four people have died and 160 are injured following air strikes on hamas military positions by israel. the strikes were in retaliation for palestinian rocket attacks on southern israel. palestinians and israeli security forces have clashed in the west bank since president trump recognised

jerusalem as israel's capital on wednesday.0ur correspondent tom bateman is injerusalem and has the latest on the airstrikes. best ta ke best take a look at the headlines. michael gove says voters can use the next general election to have their say on the final brexit deal. the foreign secretary has arrived for talks in a round with his opposite number to press for the release of the british iranian woman, nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe. the met office has issued amber weather warnings. hundreds of homes remained without power in the west midlands. wildfires in southern california show little sign of letting up as hot, dry winds continue to fan the flames. more than 200,000 people have fled their homes, with more preparing to evacuate today. president trump has declared a state of emergency, as sarah corker reports. in the mountains north

of los angeles, wildfires are roaring through the forests of ventura county. dry winds are fanning the flames, causing them to spread rapidly, and cutting across highways. radio: these guys are scrambling. and the thick plumes of smoke billow for miles. across southern california, tens of thousands of people have already fled. and this is the destruction they are escaping from. i always equate these to my family friends as disaster war zones is what you see, with the homes that are lost, and the tragedy that hits all of these families that live in these areas. homes have confirmed to be lost. some people now returning home

see what, if anything, they can salvage from the charred wreckage. it's unbelievable, it's devastating, it is horrific. there is nothing left. not a darn thing. it has barely trained in la for six months. the fires broke out on monday and reached bel—air, threatening the mansions of hollywood stars. up to 60 horses are known to have died, much of california's avocado crop has been destroyed. at night it looks like a volcano erupting. from santa barbara to la to san diego, more than 8000 firefighters are trying to contain what are the described as some of the worst fires in living memory. strong winds forecast through the

weekend are making for extremely dangerous conditions. thousands of people have gathered on the streets of paris to bid farewell to french rock star johnny hallyday, who died of cancer earlier this week aged 7a. the musician is being honoured with a ‘popular homage', which began with a procession from the arc de triomphe through the champs elysees, and will culminate with a religious ceremony at madeleine church. we're joined now by our paris correspondent hugh schofield. can you explain why we should know aboutjohnny can you explain why we should know about johnny hallyday and can you explain why we should know aboutjohnny hallyday and why so many parisians are keen to pay tribute. french people of all ages, all generations are here and they adore him. we haven't heard about him, most people haven't really cared about him because he didn't really travel. he would have sold in america and the uk because he adored america and the uk because he adored america but he never made it. he was french, he was a french rock star

who drew on the american influence and brought rock and roll to france in the early 1960s. elvis was his hero and he modelled himself on it. -- him. hero and he modelled himself on it. —— him. 0ver hero and he modelled himself on it. —— him. over five hero and he modelled himself on it. —— him. 0verfive decades has kept going, producing albums over and over again and developing a relationship with the french public which is second to none. abroad, people look on and have enjoyed mocking johnny hallyday because he did not feel like a real rock star. in france, he was the real thing. they all adore him. the degree that generation who grew up with him for whom he represented that glorious, beautiful, optimistic period of the 60s when france was at its best and when the first rush of american ideas wasn't a threat, just fun. he represented that and kept going. he

transformed himself as a man who did cover versions of american rock songs into someone who did french songs. he never wrote his own songs but they were fantastic performances. loved the motorbikes and had a rock lifestyle with divorces and drugs and taxes and so on. he had been embraced by intellectual class of france as someone intellectual class of france as someone who was intellectual class of france as someone who was so intellectual class of france as someone who was so french. that is a lovely tribute. thank you very much for that. we will talk to you again a little later when we see more of this extraordinary scene stop it is ha rd to this extraordinary scene stop it is hard to imagine which british music star would get the same response. let's get the sport now. ben duckett has been suspended

pending an investigation. he misses the chance to push for a test match call—up. instead of talking about the cricket on the page it is the disciplinary issues fit which has overshadowed the start of this two—day match, surrounding ben duckett who is training with the england lions squad. he was due to play in today's match but he was dropped because he is facing an ecb enquiry into an incident in a bar in perth on thursday. it is emerged he was out after midnight with other players including members of the test squad when a senior england player had a drink poured over his head. as a result of that, ben duckett is facing this ecb enquiry. but the ecb point out no mothers of the public we re point out no mothers of the public were involved and neither were the police. you can see the frustration

of trevor bayliss afterwards. this is another disciplinary issue that england could do without. disappointed. as i said, it doesn't matter how trivial it is, in this environment we have gone through these problems, it isn't right. nothing to do with any of their people outside the squad. again, just boys being boys i suppose. but unacceptable. this is and will raise questions about the behaviour of england's players because staggeringly, this incident happened on the first night after a midnight cu rfew ha d on the first night after a midnight curfew had been lifted. by curfew was imposed after jonny curfew had been lifted. by curfew was imposed afterjonny bairstow was involved in an incident in a bar in perth last month. this all happens against a backdrop of the ben stokes issue. he is waiting to find out if he will be charged following an

incident outside a nightclub in bristol. england a 2—0 down in this ashes series and this is precisely the sort of disciplinary distraction they could do without. 0n the pitch, opener keatonjennings, has made a case for picking him next week, by scoring 80, and so too has tom curran, not out 73. he's helped edge england into a good position in this two day match, they declared on 314—9. in reply cricket australia are 62—1. chelsea will look to take advantage of the two manchester clubs playing tomorrow cy closing the gap at the top of the premier league this afternoon. they face west ham at the london stadium this afternoon in a 12:30pm kick off. a win for antonio conte's men will see them move level in second place with manchester united. we st

west ham have a lot of good players, a lot of talent. this is a very physical team. it is a bit strange to see them in this position. it's a bright outlook for ronnie 0'sullivan whatever happens in the snooker today. the rocket will play stephen maguire in the semi—finals, looking to reach his seventh uk final. he beat martin gould 6—3, while shaun murphy will play ryan day in the other semi. and whatever happens in 0'sullivan's match, he feels he can't lose. it was win—win because i thought, if they get beaten, at least i get home to dinner. and if i win i have another day here. i have to have a win—win. at this stage of the game... there are quite a few places around here that will do dinner for you. yes, but i would like to see my missus. i decided a while ago, i like to do my own thing. whatever happens in the game is great, i pick and choose what i want to do. i think my happiness comes in doing other things away from snooker. there would be a british winner in

the dubai classic. hannah burke was tied early on but the 13th hole provided —— proved to be difficult. charley hull lucky to have recovered from a bogey on the opening hole by sinking three birdies on the front nine. another bogey on the 16th left herfour nine. another bogey on the 16th left her four shots off the lead. that's all the sport for now. now for the weather. hello there. central and southern parts of the british isles are looking at the potential of some disruption on sunday. initially, from heavy snow and then from gale force winds across the south. but yesterday we saw some disruption from frequent and heavy snow showers across much of the north and the west of the uk. some pretty impressive snowfall totals in places and it's caused there is some disruption as we head in towards saturday morning as well. snow showers will continue

across the north of scotland and on towards north—west england, around merseyside, cheshire, manchester and lancashire. the odd one elsewhere, but the emphasis will be on fine, dry, sunny weather today. in fact, a glorious day to be out and about. and it looks dry as well for the premier league football matches. plenty of sunshine by day, turning cold and frosty though, by the time the newcastle v leicester match takes place. now, it's going to be a really cold evening. first part of the night, widespread frost developing. a few wintry showers continue across the north of scotland but the main concern though is this area of low pressure, this active weather front pushing into this cold air. a band of heavy rain will bump into that cold air and turn readily to snow across parts of wales, certainly for the midlands and into northern england as well. bit of uncertainty to the north and south extent of this snow, but the met office have issued an amber, be prepared warning, for this. we could see up to ten to 20 centimetres in places. now, that is disruptive amounts of snow for the british isles, so you will really need to check

the forecast before heading out on sunday if you have too. so initially, we see the snow risk through the morning which will cause some disruption and then gale force winds blowing across parts of south wales, through the bristol channel. southern counties of england could reach in excess of 60 miles an hour, so this could cause some disruption to roads, maybe bring down some branches off trees. seven to 9 degrees across the south, turning a little bit milder and turning that snow gradually to rain as the day wears on. there's that area of low pressure, troublesome low moves away. quieter for a time and then we look to this other area of low pressure, this storm which is going to batter parts of france. its northern edge just may clip southern parts of the uk on monday. so could bring some wet and windy weather to southern, south—eastern counties but away from here, a largely cold, dry and sunny day with a few wintry showers. and then that area of low pressure moves away, on tuesday much quieter for all. cold, frosty start, bright and plenty of sunshine. hello and welcome to dateline london. i'm shaun ley.

recent days have tested the proposition that in relations between nations it's negotiation rather than innovation that wins the day. on friday, after brexit talks went to the wire and beyond, theresa may appeared to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. has she improved the odds for a successful departure for the uk from the european union? on wednesday, president donald trump went the other way, declaring that the united states would unilaterally recognise jerusalem as israel's capital, ending 70 years of studied neutrality on one of the issues that has prevented a settlement of the conflict between israelis and palestinians. could breaking out of positions adopted more than a lifetime ago be a catalyst for change? team dateline this week are: ned temko, political commentator and former editor of the jewish chronicle. agnes poirier of marianne, the french magazine. nesrine malik, who analyses arab affairs. and michael goldfarb, the america journalist and podcaster welcome to you all. in the year since he was elected us president, donald trump's supporters have explained his sometimes contradictory positions by advising, watch what he does,

not what he says. well, this week words and actions were as one. during the election campaign, mr trump said he would recognise jerusalem as israel's capital, and on wednesday he did just that. on friday, palestinian protestors responded with what they called a day of rage — an appropriate description that captures both their anger and their impotence.
