theresa may insists her brexit deal can still win the support of the commons, as a tenth member of the government resigns. the departing science minister says britain's loss of access to the eu's galileo satellite system is just one example of why her deal is flawed. we have no leverage and the eu has all the control, and they will hammer our interests and cripple our country, making us less secure, poorer and weaker in the pursuit of our national interests. mrs may is in buenos aires for the 620 summit of world leaders, and we'll have the latest from there. also tonight. i will faithfully execute the office of president of the united states. tributes following the death of george hw bush, who oversaw the end of the soviet union, and led america to victory in the first gulf war. the uk's most expensive rail project, hs2, could lose its chairman. he says he may be sacked over spiralling costs and delays. hundreds are arrested in paris after a third weekend of protests

over rising fuel taxes and the state of the economy. and i'll be live in la where, in the next few hours, british heavyweight tyson fury will try to cap a remarkable comeback and claim the wbc heavyweight title. good evening. theresa may has assured world leaders at the g20 summit in buenos aires that her eu withdrawal plan will be "a good deal for the global economy". but she's suffered a fresh blow after the resignation of another member of her government over brexit. the universities and science minister sam gyimah says the prime minister's proposal is "a deal in name only",

which would remove britain's voice and veto, and lead to it to being "hammered" in future negotiations with brussels. our political editor laura kuenssberg reports from buenos aires. how many times can she confront attacks from her own side? for theresa may, the answer seems to be as many as it takes, defending her deal again. this deal sets a path for the uk to a brighterfuture has been affirmed by the discussions i've had on trade over the past two days, with friends and partners making clear that they are keen to sign and implement ambitious free—trade agreements with us as soon as possible. the number opposing your deal is going up rather than down. when will you accept that you are losing support? the next nine days are a really important time for our country. allowing this deal to go ahead, passing this deal in the vote that takes place in the house of commons will take us to certainty for the future and that failure to do that would only lead to uncertainty. but there's real uncertainty about her, too, not that she'll admit it.

well, look, there's a lot more for me still to do, steve, not least delivering on brexit and being the prime minister that does take the united kingdom out of the european union. her predicament is one few other world leaders would want. her own party, poised to reject her main policy. much more serious than friendly sporting rivalry with australia but a hand of friendship from him. you've shown great resilience and great determination to resolve what is one of the most vexed issues i think there is. newjob? yet another minister has joined the dozens of mps pledged to vote against. sam gyimah was invited into government to be a science minister but he has quit, with an almost apocalyptic warning about theresa may's brexit compromise. we are in for several years of negotiations, at the point at which we have no leverage and the eu has all the control and they will hammer our interests and cripple our country. i'd also like to take this

opportunity to express my tribute... and while other leaders might want to help, they're worried, too, about what might happen next. japan asking for reassurance there won't be no deal. and forget the ceremony, here. at home, there's brutal argument going on. can the prime minister persuade more mps to back her compromise with the eu, that imagines close economic ties but our own control of immigration? right now, it doesn't seem so. i think there's a majority, i don't know what the size of it is but i think there's a majority against the deal that the government's putting forward and theresa may's putting forward. after that, we are into almost unknown territory and a lot of negotiation will have to go on. while the prime minister has been here, in this parallel universe, number ten's grip is shaky at home. one senior tory told me it even feels right now like there is no government. number ten is waist deep in criticism of its brexit compromise. it seems almost impossible it will pass the commons so of course,

ministers are privately discussing how to survive if the vote were to fall. but for theresa may herself, it seems there is only one decision, to keep going almost whatever the cost. one senior colleague told me she even gets her strength from absorbing this kind of humiliation. thank you. she'd never give in now, but she leaves here braced for an enormous struggle. the government can try to pretend that failure is an option. laura kuenssberg, bbc news, buenos aires. tributes have been paid to the former us president george hw bush, who's died at his home in texas. he was 94, and had been living with parkinson's disease. he'd served as a pilot in world war ii, before turning to business and then politics, becoming president in 1988. foreign policy dominated his time in the white house, with the end of the cold war and the first gulf

conflict ousting saddam hussein from kuwait. in recent years, he was critical of the current president, calling him a "blowhard", but today donald trump paid tribute, saying, "president bush inspired generations of his fellow americans to public service". president barack obama said, "the us has lost a patriot and humble servant. " our north america editorjon sopel looks back at the life of george hw bush. i will faithfully execute the office of president of the united states. america's 41st president served through some of the 20th century's most momentous times. so help me god. congratulations. thank you. the cold war ending, the berlin wall coming down, the soviet union collapsing, turmoil in the middle east and the first gulf war. yet by today's brutal standards, he seemed to embody a more noble sense of politics, rooted in duty, respect and public service. that george herbert walker bush

should reach the highest office in the land almost seemed predestined. he was born into a family of wealth, privilege and politics. his father was a us senator. george attended yale before volunteering for the navy in world war ii. he was shot down over the pacific, his rescue remarkably caught on camera. peacetime took him to texas where he made a fortune in the oil business, and then came the lure of politics. bush snr was the last of america's cold war leaders and the demise of communism during his period was managed deftly, as former soviet satellites embrace the values of democracy and freedom. but there were new uncertainties, notably iraq's surprise annexation of kuwait in 1990. margaret thatcher told him to stand firm, apparently saying, "this is no time to go wobbly, george". he didn't. iraq will not be permitted

to annexe kuwait. that's not a threat. it's not a boast. it's just the way it's going to be. the 1992 election pitched the patrician bush against the young, charismatic and hitherto little—known democratic governor from arkansas, called bill clinton. his clear advocacy of a new vision for america swept him to victory. within a decade, there was another bush in the white house, george w. two years ago, his younger sonjeb took on donald trump for the republican nomination for president. i'm sick and tired of him going after my family. it was ugly. in turn, george bush snr called donald trump a blowhard and said later that he'd voted for hillary clinton in the election. today, donald trump was gracious. he was a very fine man, i met him on numerous occasions, he was just a high—quality man who truly loved his family. one thing that came through, very loud and clear, he was very proud of his family. the one constant throughout his life was his wife, barbara.

they were married for over 70 years. she died in april. he said he was looking forward to being reunited with her. president george hw bush, who's died at the age of 94. for donald trump, the business of the g20 summit continues. tonight, he's meeting china's president xi, and says he's hoping to end the trade war between their countries. 0ur north america editorjon sopel joins us from the summit. can they sort out this trade war is it going to escalate, do you think? it is the big question, clive. what is happening now, as we speak, they are sitting down for dinner, president xijinping's are sitting down for dinner, president xi jinping's advisors and presidents trump's advisors, early in the week, president trump sounded negative and said there could be new sanctions introduced injanuary, new

ta riffs sanctions introduced injanuary, new tariffs which could be catastrophic for the global economy. today, going into the meeting, donald trump said he was hopeful there could be a deal which would be great for the chinese people and great for america, two and spoke warmly about his relationship with president xi. i don't know if we're going to see all—out warfare, a brief cessation of hostilities while talks go on or whether it will be peace in our time. i think it is going to be more towards that end of the scale that there will be some kind of breakthrough and they will agree to carry on talking and maybe the new ta riffs carry on talking and maybe the new tariffs will not be introduced but you don't know until the meeting is over and donald trump is in the chair. wrightjohn sobel, there, in one sarries, thank you. —— in buenos ra is. sir terry morgan, the head of britain's most expensive rail project, hs2, has told bbc news he expects to be sacked after just four months in the job because of concerns about his performance. there's been speculation over his future after recent disclosures about costs and delays on hs2 and the other project he runs, building london's crossrail. our business correspondent joe miller has more.

trains that will whizz between london and birmingham at 250 mph and eventually reach as far as leeds. that was the promise of hs2. when you've put eight years of your life into this... and this was the man anointed to make it happen. in august, transport secretary chris grayling sung the praises of engineer sir terry morgan, the new chair of the £56 billion project, but this weekend, sir terry learned from a newspaper report that he was soon to be dismissed. i can only but assume, because i've not yet been told, that because hs2 is such a critically important programme, and with the sense of disappointment around the performance of crossrail, that it was considered to be too risky for a programme like hs2 to continue in my role as chairman. sir terry was trusted to run london's vast crossrail project for almost a decade, but after delays and a projected

£1 billion of extra costs, he's fallen out of favour at westminster and at city hall. it was only at the end of august that we were told that the central section of crossrail wasn't going to open until the autumn of next year. we had also found out about significa nt cost overruns in the project, and really that is hugely frustrating and hugely disappointing. hs2 is still officially on budget and on time, but sir terry morgan is leaving his job with a warning that this complex infrastructure project is facing problems which are soon to emerge. the government, and transport secretary chris grayling, are already under pressure over chaos on the country's rail networks, and with hs2, it's ultimately them and not sir terry morgan who are in the driving seat. joe miller, bbc news. more than 200 people have been arrested in paris after violent protests around one of the city's most popular tourist attractions, the arc de triomphe.

it's the third week of demonstrations, originally sparked by rising fuel taxes, that have become a wider movement of discontent with the government. hugh schofield reports. darkness fell at the end of a day of violence in paris, and still it went on. at the arc de triomphe, covered now in anti—macron graffiti, police fired water cannon to clear the crowds. and here in the gardens by the louvre, one protester is now in a coma after they tore down the metal grille. this evening, the arc de triomphe is back under police control but there are still lots of protesters out there. there's still the tang of tear gas in the air and in the streets around here, a trail of destruction — cars burnt out, shop windows smashed, bank windows smashed. parisiens are used to protest but this has been of a rare violence. all day, there were running battles between riot police and yellow vest protesters.

though how many of these were actually agitators of the far right or the far left is one unanswered question. they tore up cobblestones to fling at police and set light to cars and buildings. and amid the scenes of destruction, ordinary people who had come from across france to demonstrate peaceably. they didn't want the violence to divert attention from their central message, which is that taxes in france have gone too far. translation: abraham lincoln said something important. he said that government should be of the people, by the people, for the people. for the people. our politicians should keep that in mind. they won't get any further until they put the people first. translation: we have all had enough. it's been going on for so long and eventually you have to resist. there's no choice. who are you? we are the people. you don't have to look any further. not right, not left. we're just the simple people. the intensity of the violence has

left france shocked. it leaves president macron with an urgent dilemma. does he appease or face down this protest of the people? hugh schofield, bbc news, paris. in the next few hours, the british boxer tyson fury will take on deontay wilder for the world boxing council heavyweight championship. if fury wins, it would seal a remarkable comeback after problems with depression, drink and drugs. well, our sports editor dan roan is in los angeles where the fight will take place. the next few hours, clive, we are going to find out whether tyson fury can do what very few british boxers have managed over the years and become just the third in history to wina become just the third in history to win a world title fight on american soil. this has become, california, familiar territory for him because he's been training here for the last two and half months and at the weigh—in yesterday, the sense was that he was the home fighter. he

looked very relaxed and positive with tremendous support from hundreds of fancy have flown into support him and certainly, as you said, if he were to prevail tonight, given what he has gone through, lost ten stone, got into great shape after his well—documented problems, it would go down as one of the great british sporting comebacks. but standing in his wake of fears and punching power of deontay wilder, who has winter macro all but one of his a0 fights by knockout, and like tyson fury, he's undefeated. something has to give this evening. the omens are good. 15 years ago, lennox lewis wood in the staples centre in his finalfight lennox lewis wood in the staples centre in his final fight and we will see if tyson fury can do the same, the fight will take place at 5am your time. thanks from dan roan in los angeles. that's it. you can see more on all of today's stories on the bbc news channel. but from me and the rest of the team, have a very good night. hello. this is bbc news. the white house says a state funeral is being arranged for the former us president, george hw bush, who has died at the age of 9a.

his body will lie in state from monday evening until wednesday, which has been declared a national day of mourning. earlier i spoke to the republican strategist mica mosbacher who was friends with the george hw and his wife barbara and whose late husband served as george hw bush's secretary of commerse. i have so many fond memories. my late husband and i took many trips with the president and misses bush including attending the tenth anniversary in kuwait, commended mating —— commemorating the persian gulf crisis. i saw that the warm welcome he received in kuwait, and i began to understand when i visited with generals, we visited about how he had liberated the kuwait people from saddam hussein, and the women expressed such heartfelt gratitude towards the president for freeing

their man who had been rounded up by iraqi soldiers. i saw what i don't think is his profound impact in so many ways, whether it was following the cold war, and working with my husband who was commerce secretary, to open up markets for goods and services, or as a family man enjoying his wife and his children and grandchildren. he was so incredible. they're interesting to hear you talk about the persian gulf, the first war. of course it was very controversial at the time. he was criticised for pursuing that. he was criticised for pursuing that. he was criticised for pursuing that. he was also criticised for others for not finishing saddam hussein leadership. what did he reflect on it? did he have any regrets at all about it goes back —— did he have any regrets about it? absolutely

not. i don't think he thought it was in america's best interest to have a protracted war in the persian gulf. he told me first—hand that he felt that saddam hussein was a known devil, and that point he did not wa nt devil, and that point he did not want to destabilise it was ascertained that the best course of action was that mike ——... he also took the advice of his generals, and really the wise counsel behind him. he also i think embodied the spirit of bipartisanship in this country. the fact that he was able to reach out to president clinton, and work with him after the earthquake in haiti, and barbara bush often called

him the odd couple by the way, and he was able to reach across the aisle, and even president trop today in his heartfelt tweet showed that i think you can put aside political rivalry, and come together for the greater good in this country, and i think that's how president bush would like to be remembered. a series of aftershocks have rocked the us state of alaska, after a devastating earthquake struck its biggest city, damaging buildings and forcing people to run into the streets. the quake was centred about 7 miles north of the city of anchorage, but there are no reports of any serious injuries. our north america correspondent, james cook is in alaska. we are now very close to where these epicentre of this seven magnitude earthquake rattled alaska and as you can see, they are working hard to try to clear away the damage. they're worried about this piece of road, because there have been many many aftershocks. they want to get this unstable ground removed

as quickly as possible. there is a crack running along there as well as you can see, you can also see a small crack on the other side of the road, and they're concerned with more and more aftershocks, more than 500 so far, that this could potentially collapse at any moment. they're working fast to clear it, and then of course they're going to start the work on repairing and rebuilding the road, this isn't the only place this is happened. quite a few areas around anchorage where there has been significant damage to infrastructure. on the whole, this place is held up very very well, and what was a really strong earthquake, and one that rattled alaskans who are used to earthquakes, there are thousands every year, they are pretty resilient year, and they are used to them but many people said they were quite frightened by this one which went on for a good long time. very severe, lots of shaking, it's quite remarkable that they have escaped to the extent that they have. one of the reasons for that though, is because the history of alaskan earthquakes, everyone talks about 196a, and then there was a 9.2 magnitude earthquake.

that prompted alaskans to think about their building codes, the regulations, and clearly the work that they did then and in years since has paid off, because very few structures were destroyed by this quake. james cook in alaska for us. mexico's president elect andres manuel lopez obrador has been sworn in as the countries new president in mexico city. mr lopez obrador ran on an anti—corruption platform and his supporters are hoping he will implement policies to tackle the issue as well as combat the country's widespread poverty and inequality. international leaders from across the political spectrum attended the event. it's time for a look at the weather with tomasz. very mild weather across the southern half of the uk on saturday. temperatures got up to 15 celsius,

and there's no indication that we've got any particularly cold weather on the way. having said that, there might be a bit of hill snow on the way sometime next week, probably early in the week, but that's still to come. in the short term, the atlantic is looking very active at the moment, which basically means there is a lot of storminess out there, a lot of weather systems, weather fronts, and they‘ re all moving in our direction. when we get this weather pattern, the weather generally remains on the mild side. occasionally, we'll see colder air getting into scotland and maybe the north of england, but that's not in the short term. this is the forecast for tonight, so most of the weather is coming in off the atlantic. the air is mild, so 10 degrees overnight in the south, but where we've got the clear skies in north—eastern scotland, temperatures will be closer to freezing. a touch of frost outside of town. sunday, weather fronts will have passed most of the uk. it's actually stretching across scotland. but the main thrust of this weather

system is out to sea, so overnight we will have seen the rain. the rain is out of the way, and we are left over with these westerly winds on sunday. rather a lot of cloud with some sunny spells and some showers. in scotland and northern ireland, it looks like it may stay pretty cloudy during the course of the afternoon, and we'll get the outbreaks of rain and they'll come and go. again, a bit of a temperature contrast, 8 in aberdeen, which is not a million miles off the average, but in the south, exceptionally mild, 15 degrees. see these white lines, these isobars? these are pressure lines. basically, the wind follows these lines. that's where the air is coming from. so it's coming from the heart of the north atlantic out there, where the air is still relatively mild, so you can see these westerlies here, mild air on monday, with some rain pushing through. in the north, there's a change in wind direction. you can see it's coming in across scotland. this is where we could see temperatures dropping on monday, a little bit of snow

across the highlands, but still relatively mild across the south, 13 degrees. it will stay relatively mild across the south for quite some time. in the north, briefly, we could see some pretty chilly weather and some snow across the hills of northern britain. hello. this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, the headlines. theresa may has been defending her brexit plans, saying they're a good deal for the uk, despite another resignation from her government. sam gyimah, who is the former science and universities minister, says the prime minister's plan is "naive" and calls for a second referendum. and in paris, police say at least 80 people have been injured and more than 200 people arrested during violent protests over rising fuel prices. the former us president, george bush senior, dies at the age of 9a. in tribute, his son george w bush describes him as a man
