flyby. and coming up on bbc news: a greek sensation at the australian open as stefanos tsitsipas becomes the youngest man to reach a grand slam semifinal in 12 years. good afternoon and welcome to the bbc news at one. mps opposed to theresa may's withdrawal deal with the eu have been putting forward their own brexit proposals. they include a labour party motion saying mps should to vote on whether there should be a second referendum. the cabinet met in downing st this morning. it's understood that some senior ministers have been pressing for a no deal brexit to be ruled out. mps are to vote again on theresa may's plans in a week's time. here's our political

correspondent iain watson. do you think your colleagues should be permitted the chance to vote on a no—deal brexit? most members of the cabinet remained tight—lipped when asked what their colleagues would be willing to do to avoid leaving the eu without a deal. privately, some ministers are prepared to leave office unless at some stage the prime minister rules out no deal. office unless at some stage the prin’j:é"rules o is 1o deal. office unless at some stage the prin’j,ru1es o is 1o deal in and forward wa nts wants . avoid no - as who wants to avoid no deal as passionately as i do, wants to deliver brexit as much as i do, and wa nts to deliver brexit as much as i do, and wants to avoid people's referendum, which i think would be another extension of all of these tough conversations, needs to come together to support the deal. but behind the scenes, amber rudd is pressing theresa may to allow ministers to vote for a backbench

bill that aims to avoid no deal. without them having to walk out of government. that bill has been put forward by labour's yvette cooper, backed by former conservative cabinet ministers, too. we are putting legislation to say that if the government can get an agreement with the commons by the end of february, they must ask the eu for an extension of our departure, we are suggesting until the end of 2019. the official opposition has set out its own plan. labour wants mps to vote on all options that would avoid no deal, including its preferred outcome of a permanent customs union with the eu. and the party wa nts m ps customs union with the eu. and the party wants mps to consider whether to hold a referendum on any brexit deal. this was welcomed by some of those campaigning for a new public bug. i think it is a welcome step in the right direction. it doesn't take us the right direction. it doesn't take us to exactly where i want to be, but i think it is part of the process that will get us to that point. should she be sounding quite

positive? many labour party grassroots members want a referendum if they can't get an early election. the party's if they can't get an early election. the pa rty‘s plans if they can't get an early election. the party's plans for sort of that and don't commit the leadership to a new public vote, only for pushing for parliamentary time to discuss it. this is a divisive issue for all parties, particularly the conservatives and labour, where we have mps against people's vote for various reasons, and people in favour of it, so we would very carefully determine our position at the time. ourjob is to bring as many people together as we possibly can, and that really is one option of many, and our priority always has been to secure a deal. the search for a brexit deal continues, but it's been straining political party is my traditional party loyalty is almost a destruction. —— almost to

destruction. our assistant political editor norman smith is in westminster. mrs may seems to be under pressure from mps on all sides. with a whole series of ammendments, could she be forced to think again on her deal? you sense that mrs may is just clinging onto her deal, even though she is now facing a blizzard of critical amendments from backbenchers, a veritable rag and bone market of amendments of all sorts, shapes and sizes. but perhaps the most significant is this move via group of cross—party backbench big hitters to try and force mrs may to delay brexit day until the end of the year. why this matters is because these are backbench big beasts, people with political clout, and they seem to have some support in government ranks, with suggestions some ministers could resign if they can't support this amendment. we know the work and pensions secretary, amber rudd, is saying to the prime minister, you need to hold a free vote on this. on

the face of it, you would say that doesn't look good for mrs may, but paradoxically, it could work to her advantage, because the great hope of 13 is that rebellious brexiteers will look around at all these amendments by mainly former remainers and think, unless we do something, one of these amendments could get through and brexit itself could get through and brexit itself could be at risk, so maybe we ought to back mrs may's deal. these amendments could yet be used by mrs may to her advantage. meanwhile, in a further sign ofjust how rapidly the clock is now ticking down towards march the 29th, the national crime agency has written to its staff to date warning of potential food and fuel shortages if there is no deal, and saying to staff, if there is no deal, there is no holiday, no leave. forget it, it will be all hands on deck. norman, many thanks. french authorities have said

that the argentinian footballer emiliano sala, who's just been signed by cardiff city, was on board a light aircraft that has disappeared off the channel islands. a search is on for the plane, which had two people on board. it disappeared from radar yesterday evening on its way from france to cardiff. here'sjoe wilson. emiliano sala at cardiff city, the club's record signing. he'd already travelled to wales at the weekend to sign and to publicise his transfer to the club, the start of something new, the big move of his career. translation: i am very happy, very happy to be here with you. it gives me enormous pleasure, and i'm going to start my training and get to work. born in argentina, emiliano sala started his football career france, especially at nantes, where he developed a strong reputation as a goal—scorer in the french league. he travelled back to france to say goodbye to his team—mate. this photo, posted

yesterday afternoon on his twitter account, is captioned: the last goodbye. at 7:15pm last night, a light aircraft left nantes bound for britain. it never arrived. the french aviation authorities say emiliano sala was on board. searches began near the channel islands. at 8:20pm last night, we had a message from jersey air—traffic control saying that a light aircraft was missing up to the north—west of alderney. we commenced an air search involving two coast guard helicopters from the uk, the channel islands air search fixed wing aircraft and the lifeboats from both guernsey and alderney. these pictures give an indication of emiliano sala's reputation in french football. nantes, his former club have postponed their next game, scheduled to be played tomorrow. at fc nantes today, people gathered, waiting for news, fearing the worst. at cardiff city, too, just waiting. the link between these clubs,

a young man at the peak of his football career, trying to live his dream. joe wilson, bbc news. our reporterjohn fernandez is in guernsey. john, just bring us up to date with the search. we just the search. wejust had the search. we just had an update from the harbour master who is leading the search operation on behalf of the coast guard. he says that the operation will need to be reconsidered at sunset today. at the moment, there are a number of asset out searching what they say is around a 100 square miles area so far. there have been asset including the channel islands lifeboat, error search, and a helicopter has even been involved. they are scouring the area at the north of alderney, a very rough area of tied. while

conditions have been better than last night, where the weaves were reaching 1.5 metres in swell, it is a much better time to search now. according to the harbour master, there have been no signs of any activity from the aircraft, which lost co nta ct activity from the aircraft, which lost contact with radar at around 8:20pm last night. john, many thanks. the president of zimbabwe, emmerson mnangagwa, has cut short a foreign tour to deal with unrest at home, sparked by a big rise in the price of fuel. he condemned the demonstrations for their violence, but also criticised the police and the army, who have been accused of a brutal crackdown by the opposition. our correspondent pumza fihlani is in johannesburg. striking that the president is sounding tough on the security forces who helped bring him to power. indeed it is. and one of the reasons for that is that he really needs to

assure the international community that he is the man in charge. that isa that he is the man in charge. that is a relationship with the security forces that he needs to navigate very carefully. as you say, these are the people that credit themselves for creating his rise to power. emmerson mnangagwa has been touring the world talking about bringing investment to zimbabwe, about how the country has changed and is open for business. the violence we have seen in the last week has done a lot to discredit that message. with him back in the country, he needs to work hard to reassure people in zimbabwe that he is running the show, and also to show that he has a firm handle on the security forces, who may still have an appetite to use the violins that they are used to using over the yea rs that they are used to using over the years to clamp down on dissent. thank you. we're leaving the one o'clock news now. in a moment, we'll have a special oscar nominations programme, here on bbc news. will there be one particularfilm
