he job —— he has not done hisjob. he is not there just to say no to everything. he's ducking at this —— he's looking at this, and we will come to boris later, how could we not? but with boris luning operated ship bid, —— lining up a leadership bid, they are thinking, well, we know what theresa may wants, and they need to make it look like this deal is very difficult to sign to stop other countries following britain out the door so they have got to play this political game which they have played over the last 18 months but maybe now a deal is coming together. even though he said a deal is likely, the red lines are always... now trashing of the single market which has always been a red line. that is what chequers does, a single line for goods but not the services. maybe in the eu they are

feeling if they move towards her direction they are more likely to give theresa may in ten downing st? i think so. it is a big week for theresa may in trying to establish where her cabinet sits on brexit and on thursday there is a special cabinet meeting to discuss no deal. that will have semi—different voices and opinions and she will have two repeat again and again that a deal is... -- repeat again and again that a deal is... —— that will have so many different voices. no one really wa nts different voices. no one really wants no deal and she has got to try and bring people on board with chequers. and now the guardian. borisjohnson chequers. and now the guardian. boris johnson featuring. you will keep up his sort. but he won't run for the leadership. he will continue throwing eggs at the chequers plan,

good old boris. so you might say this is typical boris. it says there are no plans to launch an immediate leadership campaign. all the people who are joining the tory party to get their way on chequers, they have got to wait three weeks to get a vote in a leadership contest. boris has got to drag this out another three weeks to make sure they get a vote. i'm astonished how much boris manages to dominate the media and the front pages. he's basically saying i'm not going away and i will this persistently every week until this persistently every week until this leadership bid is off the ground. you agree it is likely to happen? he sees himself as a winston

churchill and he will be swept into downing street by this sweep of history. he won't need to plot anything in particular. he has had his wilderness weeks... 0n the backbenches. i'm astonished that you are astonished, because we all work in the business and we know that when he speaks or writes, we collectively tends to cover it. it's really frustrating. it is one column. his way of communicating is one column, but i think, get out there and do an interview. if you wa nt to there and do an interview. if you want to have your say get out and face the media, notjust throwing rocks, as it says here. you could do the interview on your twitter.l word about jacob rees—mogg. the interview on your twitter.l word aboutjacob rees—mogg. a reference to the pro brexit group and they have not put forward the plan we thought they would. everyone

has criticised the chequers deal and said even though there is no alternative. jacob rees—mogg were supposed to go and come away with a plan, but they have not agreed and nothing will be put forward as an alternative and that is quite amusing. the former brexit minister stephen baker was saying that he will have 80 mp5 who will possibly vote down chequers in the house of commons should cancel it, but those things don't match up —— should it come to it. you can vote down something without knowing what you wa nt something without knowing what you want instead. it is almost like they wa nt wto, want instead. it is almost like they want wto, no deal, which is strange, because it was understood that wto free—trade deals are not good enough. there is a slight logical incoherence. is anyone surprised that the e06 have not been able to

get a plan together? they talk a good talk, perhaps, but it is shambolic on both sides. -- erg. jacob rees—mogg usually come out 0k in things but i don't think he will with this. and now to debenhams, in a battle for survival. you're so used to seeing them but you don't really notice them any more, like house of fraser, these iconic british stores. they could shut up to 80 stores, it says. their shares fell 10% yesterday, and there's a suggestion they not be able to sell the chain. there is a source on the phone who says it is knackered and they are going to dump a lot of stores because they cannot afford them. asa

stores because they cannot afford them. as a country, as the economy we haven't got to grips with how we look at retail and the cost of the high street versus the cost of buying online, that has not been resolved. when you lose if it happens, it stops people going into the town centre. it has a knock—on effect. for many market towns and cities especially in the north of england, debenhams is a important shop. what is important, and we have seen shop. what is important, and we have seen this with the fallout from bhs and the pension issues. this is so important to the workers and for the thousands of staff this is a worrying time, they will want to make sure they are as protected as they can be. it is very rare where a big chain has been pushed to the

brink like this and actually recovers so brink like this and actually recovers so this does not seem like good news. yes, these are crisis measures, but nothing has been decided yet. it is hard to think of an example when a big chain has been able to pull back from this crisis. yes, that's true. now to the financial times. these are all these little businesses which have set up in the bit below the viaduct. the railway line. yes, hairdressers, mechanics, by often in railway arches and musicians often use them for recording studios, they are a normal part of any kind of small—town or a bigger place. they are quite iconic. network rail is basically going to sell more than 5000 commercial properties mostly of

the railway arches for about £i.5 billion. that is sad in itself, but these arches, because we know they are therefore cheaper rent, and easy to come by —— theirfor gibran. —— cheap rent. private equity landlords might be the purchases and they might be the purchases and they might put the rent up, that is the fear. this sale is £1.5 billion and so fear. this sale is £1.5 billion and so there's a long way to go if they are trying to claw back money. they wa nt to are trying to claw back money. they want to spend the money on upgrading the railway. so they say. but the debt has gone up by 5.6 billion so even the sale of 1.6 billion doesn't even the sale of 1.6 billion doesn't even come close to that. they say

they will refund this back into doing up the railways but why am i slightly cynical about that? it might disappear into a black hole. i know business owners who have had businesses in railway arches and they have been sold and then people put the rent up and then they leave and then people cannot rent them out again because the rent is too high so again because the rent is too high so that was a worry for these small businesses. the added convocation, it can no longer borrow money on the private market because it has been reclassified as a public body —— the added complication. that is why labour is asking for the government to intervene. the shadow minister has said this move is highly irresponsible and they will be calling on the government to step in. save our archways. and now back to the guardian again. almost every

paper has a variety of photographs with alastair cook and his big moment. i'm not sure what the cricket equivalent of roy of the rove rs cricket equivalent of roy of the rovers is, but this is it. he started his test career with a century against india and he finishes it with 147 against india. the highest run scorer this country has ever had and he has all —— always played the game with a smile on his face. he has always been able to handle the pressure very well and you leave on top. retirement is a lwa ys you leave on top. retirement is always go to plan in sport but today was beautiful, sweet moment and a standing ovation. really emotional for everyone that was there. i just think, i was remembering usain bolt‘s last race, that was so disappointing but this is perfection come if you are going to go out of the sport. yes, he did as well as

you could do. thanks forjoining us. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you — 7 days a week. and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you kate and owen — we'll be back at 1130. goodbye for now. a thoroughly wet end to the day across the northern half of the country, it is raining intensely in places, parts of scotland and northern ireland and also the winds pretty strong and it will be a wild night across northern and western parts of the country. reaching 55 miles per hour in western scotland, 35 miles per hour in north—western england. for the first part tonight

we will hold onto wet weather, in the northern half of the country, looks like the main will clear away for much of scotland with blustery showers moving into western areas. remaining very wet foot parts of wales —— for. temperature should remain in double figures for most and it could be a warm night in southern areas. tuesday, the weather front in central portions of the country, the isoba rs front in central portions of the country, the isobars fairly close together so it will be a blustery day for most. mixture of weather conditions and also a mixture of temperatures, to the north we have polarair temperatures, to the north we have polar air mass keeping things cool and fresh but in the south we have tropical moist air across southern parts of the country. a three—way split, sunshine and blustery showers in the north, outbreaks of rain in central areas, but southern areas, sunshine, especially in the

south—east, temperatures springing up south—east, temperatures springing up in the warm air. the mid to high teens further north, and in the south—east we could make 23 or 24 depending on how much sunshine we get. but the weather front which will wax and wane in central areas will wax and wane in central areas will move south—east in the course of wednesday allowing the cooler air to eventually win out. wednesday, plenty of sunshine, central and northern areas, blustery conditions again from northern scotland, and heavy rain in the south and south—east, and the cooler air will dig in. thursday and friday, it will remain cool especially in northern areas, sunshine and blustery showers, and further south we should have some sunshine, as well. this is bbc news. the headlines at 11pm: with just 200 days to brexit day, the eu's chief negotiator has raised the prospect

of agreement within two months. if we are realistic, i want to reach an agreement on the first stage of this negotiation, which is the brexit treaty, within six or eight weeks. but theresa may has been warned again by senior colleagues that her chequers plan could turn part of the conservative party against her. there are almost 80 colleagues already who are willing to vote in the house of commons to protest the chequers deal. it would leave us half in and half out, it's not leaving the eu properly. cctv footage is released at the inquest into those who died in the westminster bridge terror attack, including images of tourist kurt cochran with his wife seconds before he was killed.
