mention. hello. this is bbc news with clive myrie. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment — first the headlines. theresa may's government has survived a motion of no confidence tabled by labour. it right, 306. to 325. minister to the other parties. the has put the - has put. confidence in this i stand the - has put. confidence in this istand ready, i ready to this ‘eady to ski: this house 3 ski: this house >| deliver é brexiti and ensure that this house retains! the confidence of the british the confidence df thirfiritisi'r before they can be any positive discussions about the m i "' . . iii’i-ififiiifiiiiifififfifiifififfiii’i government must remove, must
11:32 pm
the government must remove, must remove, clearly, once and for all, the prospect of the catastrophe of a i'io the prospect of the catastrophe of a no deal brexit. before we look at the papers, tonight's vote will have done little to reassure those business leaders who say they're increasingly concerned about the prospect of a no—deal brexit. one of the world's biggest companies has told the bbc tonight that failure to agree a deal could push up the prices of everyday products for consumers across the uk. simon jack has more on the view of business. head and shoulders, pampers, fairy liquid. the maker of some of the world's most famous brands said anything that restrict our ability to move products back and forth, things we make in the uk for uk consumers and eu consumers, or things we make in the eu that are for eu consumers and uk
11:33 pm
consumers, if it is a hard exit, it is going to drive costs in this system and it is going to drive a lot of inefficiency that ultimately is going to create problems for many stakeholders. and so one of the problems might be higher prices for consumers? yes. not quite as global but very successful, this kettle switch manufacturer told the bbc a year ago the company was growing and feeling confident. a year on, the boss is still positive but he would like the brexit date pushed back. my concern is that we have a disorderly exit at the end of march of this year. and no business needs that come wants that. for me, i think we need an extension to that deadline to enable a controlled brexit to take place. with just a matter of weeks to go before the uk is due to leave the eu, businesses are feeling themselves stranded at a crossroads of now desperate uncertainty. and while there is no consensus in the country, in the commons or the cabinet
11:34 pm
for which way we go next, most businesses are united in their fear of a no—deal brexit and financial markets here and figures in the real economy believe that a no—deal brexit must and still can be avoided. at the moment, you know, we are in, ithink, a national crisis. and we need urgent action by all concerned to get us out of that crisis. i can see a way through this. if our parliamentarians, our mps come up, consult together and come up with a solution that is good for the country, they will almost certainly get the support of business. today, the port of dover said it was preparing itself for any outcome but at the moment, only consignments to and from non—eu countries, like the one brought by this driver from turkey, need to wait while customs forms are filed and checked with agents like harbour shipping. with no deal, that would change. qtr, we areg’oing at teastfiofrrnes
11:35 pm
across the industry. we have not had the opportunity to invest in the staff be ready on day one. there are some who say no deal is nothing to fear. most businesses are hoping a deal can yet be done so they don't have to find out. with me are lucy fisher —| and the political commentator, lance price. and for the third straight day there
11:36 pm
is only one story in town. and that is, of course, brexit. a gleeful looking prime minister is on the front of the guardian — the paper captures the moment she learns she has survived the no—confidence vote. "brexican stand—off‘ — may and corbyn‘s parliament clash this evening and his attempt to oust her is dramatically illustrated on the front of the metro. as the prime minister hopes to hatch a new plan for brexit — the labour leaderjeremy corbyn refuses to hold any discussions unless may rules out a no—deal scenario, that's on the front of the ft. ‘ditch no deal‘ — the mirror leads on corbyn‘s ultimatum to the prime minister. the labour leader is accused in the daily mail of playing politics over his refusal of a meeting at downing street offered by the pm. come on over to may place — the prime minister's invite to the labour leader takes on romantic connotations on the front of the sun. his rejection of her offer for talks is also on the front of the times.
11:37 pm
and the telegraph leads with an exclusive story that chancellor phillip hammond has revealed to business leaders that the threat of a no—deal brexit could be taken off the table within days, potentially leading to article 50 being revoked. or 0rex—. —— or ex—. —— extended. may survive the vote that britain remains in deadlock. i looked at the front page of the new york times and they have a headline suggesting that there is no—one leading britain at there is no—one leading britain at the moment. that's how it feels, isn't it? we are libellous to do this is the first no—confidence vote we have had for a sitting prime in 25 years. i is a minister in 25 years. it is a perverse assault course. she staggers through that vote it straight back to the problem of trying to scramble and get together a brexit compromised. that clock is
11:38 pm
ticking, not just a brexit compromised. that clock is ticking, notjust towards march 29 but also for the fact that in five days time she needs to return to parliament and it is plain what her plan b is. theresa may has made it clear, so far, that the breadline will stick how can negotiations progress if her red lines are still fixed? that is an excellent question. i think many people around westminster are asking themselves that question. she is basically saying that she will not change her stand on any of this and what she said tonight suggest she does change her stand, what is there to talk about? we have the prime minister and the leader of the labour party refusing to shift from their positions and yet saying that they wa nt positions and yet saying that they want to find a compromise. it simply cannot be done. even one of theresa may's home in mps said that you
11:39 pm
simply cannot do that. you cannot say that i will talk to people but my red lines remain. that will not work at all. the suggestion has been that the idea of the customs union and the uk sticking in the customs union might be a way of bringing more people on board. but that would destroy the tory party, wouldn't it? split it more than it already seems to be split. today certainly we have people coming out of the woodwork clearly floating the idea of telling theresa may not to take anything of the table now by people like liam fox, a staunch brexiteer, saying that could not be the case because then you could have independent trade policy. trouble sometimes in the tory party. boat the mess in the commons, there may be the ability to get that through whereas no deal, philip hammond is stressing that
11:40 pm
could be taken off the table, that suggest there is no way that could get through parliament. the front page of the male. —— daily mail. they are in a - position, about that. the jeremy question about that. the jeremy corbyn not to talk to corbyn decided not to talk to theresa may when all the other party leaders and representatives at westminster have, that is... here in a difficult position. it is almost as if theresa may is playing pass the parcel and the parcel was born. she tried to hand it tojeremy corbyn who said no thanks. from outside britain it looks as if we have lamentable leadership, both from the government and the opposition. they are both trying, desperately, to keep their parties together. and that is their priority, rather than the best
11:41 pm
interest of the uk. that is lamentable for the country and people are beginning to notice. said these latest efforts byjeremy corbyn to avoid making a decision about brexit. he has avoided saying anything of substance about the negotiations for the last 2.5 years and he is still trying to avoid it. i think that his attempts to keep his party together, which is only pa rt of his party together, which is only part of his problem, is beginning to look incredibly thin and many people in the labour party are scratching their heads and thinking that they could not one like this. the decision he has to make is whether or not he is going to help theresa may facilitate brexit. will he do that? that would clearly disappoint, more than disappoint, the vast majority of labour party members who seem majority of labour party members who seem to want a second referendum, and he's parliamentary party. so will he accept. offer of will he accept the offer of meaningful talks l which case he meaningful—talks in which case he
11:42 pm
to stop - this meaningful—talks in which case he to stop - t will he go the ‘ way 3 actually, ‘way 3 actually, we other way and'say, actually, we—needi other way and'say, actoally, we—needi put. brake i brexit until country is a to a decision on that decision on that decision . decision on that decision comes sion on that decision comes sio will go that he would say that he to talks. that he would say that he is simply trying to follow what was the decision of the labour party conference, and that was to push for a general election. people afford the motion of no confidence that was knocked down but they made it clear they were willing to do that every wake. is a tactic that could eventually yield something? and are incredibly thin. theresa may only had a majority of 19 which hands all of the power to be the key mps —— to the dup mps. it relied on a number of members abstaining so it is very
11:43 pm
thin that it could need that if they continue to bring in these confidence vote them some votes could change one way or the other and that could make a difference. front page of the times. is possible thatjeremy corbyn is playing a clever game? you get one of the breadline is removed, the customs union. theresa may agrees to that and any return to the commons. the dup saint of a chance and some brexit is decide they will pull away as well. —— the dup say not a chance. i can't see that working. there's too clever. i am sorry to say, too clever forjeremy too clever. i am sorry to say, too clever for jeremy corbyn. too clever. i am sorry to say, too clever forjeremy corbyn. no. too clever. i am sorry to say, too cleverforjeremy corbyn. no. he is not in the talks were the reasons we have given previously. —— snubbing.
11:44 pm
he does have 257, i think it is, labour mps. that is an enormous numberof mps. labour mps. that is an enormous number of mps. lucy was talking about how delicate the arithmetic is. if you shifted those 257 labour mps towards a support for a deal, which should include a customs union, then theresa may, if she had the courage to do it, could come down on one side or the other, she could exclude the dup, forget the dup, we don't need you any more, and forget her brexiteers, the hardline brexiteers, we don't need you any more. we now have a solid majority in the house of commons for a deal that would include membership of a customs union. and that is a mark i consider, the only deal you could put together a decent majority in the commons for she has talked about --. she has talked about this sacred duty to follow through on brexit for the british people and, potentially, if she signed up to a customs union
11:45 pm
then, for a lot of people who voted brexit, that i not brexit, because brexit, that is not brexit, because you do your deals with you cannot do your own deals with other countries. so that would be really difficult for her to do, to ta ke really difficult for her to do, to take that off the table. really difficult for her to do, to take that off the table]! really difficult for her to do, to take that off the table. i think any formulation operates at that anyone comes up formulation operates at that anyone comes up with will be argued against by some faction of liebers is being not their interpretation of what exiting the eu would entail —— leavers. interestingly on the times front page, theresa may's famously stiff personality, whether she has the charm and charisma to really bring people together. when you think of some past binds in which a charismatic prime ministers, tony blair, northern ireland, for example, managed to overcome, her personal character is maybe not up to at. there are ministers in the times suggesting that she should be left in her office and other people should conduct most of these negotiations. because if you are going to try to draw people out then
11:46 pm
you have to have somebody who was willing to make compromises, who isn't going to stick rigidly to red lines. let them find an agreement, if there is one, take it to her, so this is the best we can do. i think this is the best we can do. i think this is the only way we can go forward on this. in many ways she is the barrier to become promote she says she wants. will get onto that. the independent, lucy, she will go on to the end, indestructible. she is the nokia 5120. we saw that last night. the last parliamentary defeat for any government in history and with the mother of all parliaments. the oldest in the world. and she is still there. she is still there because there is no—one else. who wa nts to ta ke because there is no—one else. who wants to take on the mantle of dealing with brexit?|! wants to take on the mantle of dealing with brexit? i think there are quitea dealing with brexit? i think there are quite a few wrangling... at this
11:47 pm
particular stage. i don't know. that is often said. the lure of being in number10, is often said. the lure of being in number 10, there would be people who would jump. you cannot falter. what he may lack charm, resilience is something else after what she has been to —— you cannot falter. she may lack charm. she can really put her own vision of brexit through parliament. bus, no, she forges on. one wonders how she does it. -- but no. your express of working at number10, and the no. your express of working at number 10, and the leaders they are, it must be so difficult hearing you being frankly slagged off every other day. you're not up to it, you are lacking the charisma, the charm, the nimble footed must, to deal with such an intractable issue. you're just not up it. and yet she just
11:48 pm
keeps - i think that you have do most ministers and they it on the learn it the hard wa , is to block it i out. you just don't block it all out. you just don't listen to it. you focus each day on what you can do 2 date. no matter what you can do that date. no matter how bad it is. i remember bill clinton said that when the monica lewinsky stuff was mired in scandal. he saidi lewinsky stuff was mired in scandal. he said i get up every day and think what can i do? i think she does the same thing. you also have to have a degree of flex ability, mental flexibility, to look at new ways, to be becoming about things —— flex ability. we have given her credit when she has been driven credit for sticking to her guns and being very firm, for keeping going. that is starting to become a disadvantage rather than an advantage in terms of her political skills. and we have seen other people jockeying for position. michael gove's speech at the end of the no—confidence debate
11:49 pm
to date was extraordinary. he just showed what a really self—confident politician can do —— today. the icelandic parliament is older than the british parliament. a small point. is it really? the giver and much indeed for that. lota. thank you. —— thanks- much much indeed for that. lota. thank you. —— thanks much for much indeed for that. lota. thank you. the |anks much for much indeed for that. lota. thank you. the telegraph. nuch - for much indeed for that. lota. thank you. the telegraph. mps. - for much indeed for that. lota. thank you. the telegraph. mps. no—dealr that. the telegraph. mps. no—deal brexit. she says - will not be ‘ the table. could ‘the table. could that be a the - 5 he reflecting .. he reflecting the ,. tonight. he is only reflecting the reality of the parliamentary arithmetic. there is not a majority for no deal. when you work backwards from that, article 50 will probably have to be extended, at any rate, given how tight the timetable is to
11:50 pm
get through all the laws that need to be passed before we leave the eu. yeah. itjust to be passed before we leave the eu. yeah. it just feels to be passed before we leave the eu. yeah. itjust feels as if something has got to give. and it has got to be theresa may backing down on something in order to bring on, as you say, remainers, brexiteers in labour, snp, whatever, to bring them on board to try to get some kind of deal through. on board to try to get some kind of dealthrough. you on board to try to get some kind of deal through. you cannot lose a vote by 230 boats and still insist that you are not going to change any of the opposition is —— votes. you have to recognise that you have not only failed to convince mps, but you have not come remotely close to convincing mps that the package you are wedded to is the right one for the country and the right one for é individual mps and that they efiefi? ee ieeieieuel pepe eee eeee eeee} eeeee ee ieeieieuel pepe eee eeee eeee} ta ke eeeee ee ieeieieuel pepe eee eeee eeee} take back to can take back, to their .. — a she

11:52 pm
brexiteer mps, that the eu will budge. this will always come down to the 11th hour. it is a game of chicken. if you take no deal of the table now you have got rid of a key negotiating bargaining chip. and the belief that the eu is still willing to move despite all the signals, the signs coming out of brussels and across the continent that that is not the case. there is a strong belief in that. it is no longer a bargaining chip because there is no negotiation with the eu. they have quite rightly said uk, you decide what it is you want. the negotiation has to be in the british parliament between the major players in politics in this country and then we can go back to the eu. this talk of having to hang on to no deal as a sort of, as a way of forcing the eu to change their position, it is cloud cookey land. all right. that is where we will end it. it is good to see you both. to see some of the stories behind the headlines. or the
