your wow seem to be awful. you talk about your wow moment, how hard was it to keep a secret from the family? are you going to confess you didn't at all, butjust you going to confess you didn't at all, but just swore you going to confess you didn't at all, butjust swore them to secrecy? terrible! i told all, butjust swore them to secrecy? terrible! itold my all, butjust swore them to secrecy? terrible! i told my husband. all, butjust swore them to secrecy? terrible! itold my husband. i didn't tell the children because i thought it's bad enough keeping a secret yourself about this but to have to keep somebody else's secret, laterally or unfair. i was unusually... interference he doesn't get the benefit. whereas if he was made a server, you would automatically become a lady. —— if he were made a sir. it is gender discrimination. perhaps we should call all the dame's husbands can extra ct call all the dame's husbands can extract buttons. professor dame mary beard, your husband's views on that will have to remain a mystery. thank you. indeed, all the others who have

had honours today, whether you are and whatever it is for, congratulations. there's been no breakthrough at the g7 summit in canada between president trump and the other leaders over the trade tariffs recently imposed by the us. there's now concern on the second and final day that the countries won't be able to agree a joint statement. 0ur diplomatic correspondent, james robbins, reports from quebec. serious faces, as the leaders sat down to confront the collision course on trade, which so divides donald trump from america's traditional partners and friends. but once they were alone, the talking was apparently tough and one official described strong emotions around the table. the president apparently fired off his sets of numbers, showing america suffering from unfair treatment. other leaders fired back their very different figures. when canada's prime minister met the president separately, justin trudeau tried to sound upbeat. the two narratives on who is bullying who can't easily be squared but there are suggestions limited progress has been made. when canada's prime minister met the president separately, justin trudeau tried to sound upbeat. we both got elected on a commitment to grow the middle class and help
10:10 am
those working hard to join it, and that's exactly the kind of things we're going to stay focused on. it's a pleasure to have you here, donald. donald trump opted for a joke, at this host's expense. justin has agreed to cut all tariffs and all trade barriers between canada and the united states. so, i'm very happy. so, i'd say nafta's in good shape! but we are actually working on it. the big question for the second and final day of the summit is how much can be salvaged from the wreckage of the most and if an agreement can be achieved at the end of the day, will it be at the price of diluting fundamental principles simply to bring together president trump and america's traditional allies? it's notjust trade which isolates president trump from the other six nations. there are big divides over climate change, iran and the israel—palestinian conflict. germany's chancellor angela merkel
10:11 am
is one of those suggesting it may be impossible to agree a final summit communique. it's more honest, she said, to name the differing views and try to overcome them than try to pretend everything is ok. one thing is certain, weather this is g7 or g6+i, president trump will be long gone, before the summit ends. last to arrive, first to leave. seeming to confirm this lack of appetite for this whole forum, where he can't make the individual deals he much prefers. james robbins, bbc news, quebec. theresa may says her cabinet will hold another awayday at chequers as it tries to agree a final brexit position. the government hopes to complete its negotiations with the eu by october. mrs may insists that progress hasn't been hampered by rows within the conservative party and that a lot of activity is planned for the coming weeks. 0ur political correspondent matt cole is with me now. it's been a tough week already.
10:12 am
absolutely. and we are not quite at the end of it. theresa may has had a tough time, under pressure on wednesday, prime minister's questions, the labour leader, jeremy corbyn, once again asking when are we going to get this white paper? the proposals document on the next stage of brexit. including crucially the customs arrangements in future thatis the customs arrangements in future that is dividing the cabinet. some of those cabinet divisions, rumours that david davis, the brexit secretary was threatening to resign if he didn't get a particular thing as part of that push through. that seemed to go away, just about. some people even suggesting theresa may had done quite well. then a recording and mergers of boris johnson, the foreign secretary saying he didn't think the talks we re saying he didn't think the talks were going that well and suggested they could even go into meltdown. theresa may disappeared after the
10:13 am
g-7 theresa may disappeared after the g—7 summit in canada. theresa may disappeared after the g-7 summit in canada. somewhat of a relief i would imagine. by the time she landed the borisjohnson recordings had emerged. she is now talking tough and trying to push back and maybe regain some of the initiative. people like boris have strong views on brexit, but so do i. i want to deliver brexit, for the british people. that's what people want. and i'm getting on and doing it. how many times can we get to this position, where you have to have these clashes with those on your own side? look, at every stage in these negotiations, we've seen people casting doubt on whether or not we could achieve what we want to achieve. we're now moving on to finalise those withdrawal issues and also to move on to discuss our future relationship. if that has been a difficult week and we hear from the g—7 if that has been a difficult week and we hearfrom the g—7 summit are pretty difficult weekend with the divisions over trade, she's back the start of next week for a big parliamentary week on brexit. indeed. we have the brexit bill,
10:14 am
withdrawal from the eu indeed. we have the brexit bill, withdrawalfrom the eu bill with returning to the commons on tuesday. there were some 15 amendments made by the house of lords. 26 hour sessions. there was going to be an endless session on tuesday but now they have broken it up. theresa may has only got a working majority of 13, trying to keep everyone on site to make sure none of those amendments stay in could be very difficult for her. all of these things putting huge pressure... big eu summit at the end of the month. we now know the white paper with all the plans meant to come out before that's on now won't be. it would be able to be discussed at that summit. how confident do you think ministers are, privately, that things are on track? there is a deadline that the eu has imposed saying we have got to get this signed off by october because the ratification process which is required by individual member countries will take most of six months before you walk out the door? not least ratification by the
10:15 am
parliament here. one of the amendments being discussed next week is what happens if parliament get a meaningful vote and says no. does it go back to the government? 28 days of thinking if they can get that revised amendments through or as the house of lords wanted, goes back to parliament and who knows what is the short summary. ministers are up against it. now that they are having this awayday in the cabinet, they will try to nail down some of these crucial things but given people likejeremy corbyn and others have demanded this white paperfor weeks, there and others have demanded this white paper for weeks, there is and others have demanded this white paperfor weeks, there is a and others have demanded this white paper for weeks, there is a further delay to its publication, we will all wait to see. rather than it being pulled apart initially by eu leaders at the summit at the end of the month, it will now be picked apart in the dog days of summer. we know things can go funny when people are on their holiday. those months until october will go swiftly but not necessarily smoothly. fascinating, thanks. the taliban in afghanistan has announced a three—day ceasefire to take place over the muslim
