shift this vote. is the pm post? brea kfast, shift this vote. is the pm post? breakfast, at toast, serial, victoria, you seem to have something on your right. i think there is not more to go. this vote that the prime minister is a leading up to next week in the house of commons are pleased to be a crunch point on the decision of the detail in this deal. the sticking point is northern ireland, the so—called backstop if negotiations over the next two years the british government and the eu have not come to a conclusion, northern ireland could remain within european constitution and basically become detached from the rest of the united kingdom. this is fundamentally unacceptable to many mps and the government of northern ireland, obviously. within this

there are plenty of other issues that are also being searched for. it is not as a binary as people make it out to be. which is why cabinet ministers are lobbying the prime minister ‘s about other further concessions as well as the backstop to add a sense of greater control or more of a brexit or a harder brexit, so more of a brexit or a harder brexit, so that people feel they are getting a brexit that they wanted. it is almost an emotional issue as much as almost an emotional issue as much as a political issue. it is interesting, you outline some of the things people are asking for, concession on the timing, the nature of this vote, perhaps giving mps more control over issues like the backstop but she's not having any of

that some interesting comments from tony blair saying that the premier is staring at the mp5. tony blair saying that the premier is staring at the mps. all politicians and former prime minister ‘s should note it is easy to give advice to current prime minister ‘s. theresa may i think has done a tremendousjob minister ‘s. theresa may i think has done a tremendous job to get to this point. it she started to demonstrate she is looking at other options as she is looking at other options as she is looking at other options as she is going to point of conclusion it would undermine her position... how sensible isn't too plunge ahead -- is it how sensible isn't too plunge ahead —— is it to plunge ahead to what seems like a defeat next week. she might be saying she is holding her position as she negotiates not only with the eu but everybody else around her who tried to influence and her decision—making. she must stand firm on her position as long as she can to understand all the
5:49 am
arguments and then, at the right time for her and the negotiations, she will make a decision. i think she will make a decision. i think she is doing the right thing... i may be the only one. you are entitled to your position as eve ryo ne entitled to your position as everyone else. universally regarded with disbelief, the crown princes of corporate china arrested in vancouver as she was changing flights. detail is very scant. it seems a very melodramatic if i may add to this. last minute, just after president trump and president xi have had this breakthrough in trade wa rs have had this breakthrough in trade wars emerging between them to this kind of intervention, the elected association with sanctions that are not being applied to be run and
5:50 am
huawei providing services to be run. there seems to be more to it. but it may have been done for dramatic effect and it may be part of a bigger conversation. the diplomacy of the trump administration has never been subtle, shall we say, so it doesn't play to the tactics that president trump and his administration have been using. shocking as seen by the chinese. do you think this is about iranian sanctions or something else? concerned that china may be using private entities to spy on the rest of the world. is this what this is really about? there i have been many allegations of that kind. certain businesses that seemed to be very close to the chinese administration and obviously it cannot get closer
5:51 am
than to wear huawei is. you have to align those two conversations and said they could have something to do with that and is there a reason why. .. this is with that and is there a reason why... this is the reason why people wa nt to why... this is the reason why people want to scrutinise huawei further. maybe that is what is going on here but it is all smoke and mirrors at the moment. are you an 02 user? i am. how did you cope? just fine. a lot of people being used at their mobile phones and generally a bit of a shrug. i heard a collie sake i have missed the meeting, a call and isaid, did have missed the meeting, a call and i said, did the world stop? and she said, though. was it a moment when we had a bit of freedom? the
5:52 am
conversation were 32 million people are affected in their daily life and some very seriously, whose jobs and life could be at risk, because we are so dependent on so many services and activities. these are probably bash we talked about brexit a moment ago and how the country is concerned about brexit — but what happens when about brexit — but what happens when a major infrastructure network goes down, what are the implications for security, emergency services, the economy? this raises major questions let alone in terms of trust in the service 02 was providing. their brand. the interrelated conversation between people like the different mobile providers who are using the 02 network. this instance is raising
5:53 am
a lot of questions that people will have to look at in more serious ways which are criticalfor have to look at in more serious ways which are critical for national infrastructure and the public‘s reliance on it, as the country, and what happens when something like this, which comes down to certification and 02 mentioning a supplier causing this in pact. but talk about risk assessment, this is a risk that has materialised and something we need to look at. 02 said the four g network is back up and running and they will be investigating. let's talk about the story in business matters, the story which was first brought to light by the bbc. shares diving after they
5:54 am

5:55 am
the way to scotland. severe gales here could cause some problems. and as well as the very strong winds on friday in scotland, we'll also have some heavy rain around, particularly across south—west england, over the next few hours, and that could bring some localised surface water flooding. the troublemaker is this developing area of low pressure. pressure continues to fall and the low pressure deepens, and that continues to strengthen the winds. now, the strongest winds will be going into the north of the uk, and you can see some of the heaviest rain will be trailing back across wales into south—west england. here, a0 millimetres of rain, and that could cause a few issues first thing friday morning. certainly, some big puddles on your morning commute across this part of the world. the winds will continue to strengthen as we go on through the next few hours. and there is a good chance if you're going out in the next couple of hours of seeing some pretty heavy rain around as well, but it won't be a cold start to the day. the winds will continue to strengthen to thorugh morning across northern ireland and then into scotland. this is where the strongest winds are going to come through, probably the strongest winds around midday,
5:56 am
the early afternoon, with gusts around 70 to 80 miles an hour. could even top that in one or two of the very, very most exposed locations. there'll be heavy rain as well. further south, our band of rain will continue to push eastwards across england, clearing friday. then we'll see some sunshine following and a few showers for western parts of england and wales to end the day. showers too for northern ireland. temperatures will be falling through the afternoon. seven to 10 degrees as that cooler air continues to work its way in. now, as far as the weekend goes, it will stay pretty wind and blustery, and we're looking at further showers around, particularly on saturday. it turns cooler on sunday, but with a bit more in the way of sunshine. here's a chart then to take us through friday night. those strong wind still buffeting scotland, it will take a while for those winds to ease down, and then we'll start to see the next system approaching from the west. so, this is the forecast for saturday. most of us will see at least some bright and sunny spells, but it's going to be a blustery kind of day, with showers moving in from the west and pushing eastwards as the day goes by. so it's one of those days where most of us will see at least a spell of rain. temperatures between nine and i3 celsius, so we're just about on the mild side of things.
5:57 am
however, for the second half of the weekend, as winds swith round more to a north—westerly, still with som showers knocking around, its going to start to feel a little bit cooler than that. those showers are really quite likely to work into parts of north wales and parts of north—west england, particularly around cheshire, greater manchester and merseyside. and the temperature's going down. seven to 11 degrees your high on sunday. good morning. welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. our headlines today: theresa may sends out 30 ministers across the uk to try to shore up last—minute support for her brexit deal. 02 customers are back online, but a review is ordered into the disruption that affected 32 million people. 0f a rescue mission‘s launched for the british sailor standed at sea during a round—the—world race. we are going to get through 300,000
