the prime minister has told mps that if her brexit deal is rejected, correspondent jonathan blake they'll get an opportunity to vote on ruling out a no—deal brexit, has more. and possibly how do you think mrs may staring the delaying brexit moment? itself. i think she might be feeling a but let me be clear, i do not want to see little bit bruised actually, because this is something she never really article 50 wa nted this is something she never really wanted to do all along throughout extended. our absolute focus should be the brexit process, she has said on working to get a deal and leaving over and over again, that the uk on the 29th would be leaving the eu on of march. the 29th the government releases an internal of march, and briefing paper on the impact she would not of a no—deal brexit, warning of significant effects under any circumstance the on cross border trade, tariffs, negotiation and the northern ireland economy. process , any circumstance the negotiation process, what was on the house of commons today that she would allow india says it's conducted parliament vote on whether to do air—strikes in pakistan—administered kashmir, targetting a militant group that. it was something that she never wanted to do, and furthermore it says killed a0 indian soldiers, she has always wanted to keep the in a suicide attack option of leaving the eu without a a fortnight ago. deal in play, brendan rodgers is appointed because her strategy the new manager of leicester city football club, after claude puel went that if that was a was sacked on sunday, with the 2016 factor, then it would strengthen her hands champions currently in negotiations with the european union. that now also sitting has been thrown
8:02 pm
at twelfth in into doubt by what she promised to the premier league. the house of commons today, and that was a vote either, first of all to rule out leaving the eu without a deal at the end of march, and if so, whether to extend the negotiating period. she hopes neither of those will have to happen, because of christ before that, parliament will vote on a revised version of her brexit deal, but as of yet, we don't know what that will look like, and good evening, welcome to bbc news at we don't know what the changes will eight p:m.. be, so it is farfrom certain for the first time since she began whether np is well negotiating uk's withdrawal from the european union, back at. sure, is thersesa may has opened up the possibility that there still a sense of, i brexit could be delayed. facing pressure from some don't know, optimism in the ranks at of her own ministers the prime minister has offered number ten, that they can get the parliament a series of votes. first, a vote on whatever deal kind of concession from brussels that will keep the she negotiates by 12 march. if that's rejected, mps will then eu... erg have the chance the following day onboard, and even people like to vote on whether to leave caroline flint in the labour party with no deal. to get for them to vote for her then, if the deal? there is certainly help, i'm not commons votes against that sure whether you would call but that is still very much the plan, and i too, there'll be another think there is a feeling that vote if by 14 march on brussels brussels can make the delaying concessions which the prime minister brexit beyond the current deadline of 29 march. wa nts, concessions which the prime minister wants, not necessarily changes to
8:03 pm
here's our political editor, the treaty, changes to the laura kuenssberg on a major turning point in the government's withdrawal agreement, but there's brexit strategy. already been agreed between the uk a smooth departure has always and the eu, but something extra, and been the prime minister's plan. added legal guarantee of some sort, adamant we'd leave the eu by the end then that would hopefully be enough. of this month, keeping the pace up to depart on time. we've heard from the dup, of christ but with no deal in that group of ten mps who place yet, theresa may had to prop up theresa may's government today, saying that for them still, it would say what she never wanted to — that there could be be changes to the withdrawal a delay to brexit. agreement that would cut it. i think i know members across the house it is very unlikely that that isn't are genuinely worried that time is running out... necessarily going to happen, so they will either have to change their that if the government doesn't come position, or at the moment it looks back with a further meaningful like they will be voting against vote, or it loses that vote, theresa may's deal. we will have to parliament won't have wait to see, because unless something comes back in the next few time to make its voice days or so, what will happen heard on the next steps. so... tomorrow, is there will be a vote on a mutual motion, something very bland which simply states that the the uk will only leave without a deal on 29 march government is continuing to negotiate, and the house of commons if there is explicit consent in the house for that outcome. has considered that. there will be third... the look — for the words various amendments to that motion which will allow parliament to she never wanted to say. third, if the house, express its well and in various having rejected leaving with the deal negotiated potential outcomes of the brexit process. jonathan, thank
8:04 pm
with the eu, then rejects you. leaving that's the view from westminster — on 29 but what will the eu make march without of this latest development? we can now speak to david a withdrawal herszenhorn, who's the chief brussels correspondent for politico. agreement he joins us and future framework, then on 14 march, live from brussels. the government will bring forward a motion on whether parliament good to see you, thanks for being wants to seek a short, limited extension to article 50. with us. i have spoken to two and translated — if mps kick peas, when from labour, and one out her deal again, they can choose to delay brexit instead. from the conservatives neck and who all the prime minister has become quite the expert at kicking voted at least the can down the road, believe that the but the problem is the road uk should leave the european union on is running out, and the consequences of running down the clock march the 29th. is there a growing are evident and sense in brussels that that date is very real going to be pushed back? that there for industry and for will be a delay. people's jobs. delay is not what number there is a growing sense that ten wants, a delay is inevitable. in their but for once, it view, there is just no consensus emerging was remainers who pushed the prime minister, in the uk that will yield a those in cabinet who said they'd quit if the number ten didn't majority in the uk that will yield a majority in the house of commons to get out admit delay as an option. by march 29. so we heard are there going to be resignations later? donald tusk, that president walking out quietly satisfied together after newly three hours of cabinet talks. saying he sought theresa may and saying that those who deplored the idea there is no majority in the of leaving without a deal have won, for commons,
8:05 pm
it isa there is no majority in the commons, it is a rational thing to post bond. today. we have to avoid that. this is a change in the i think it is our duty. eu's the prime minister was very clear position. they had suggested that the only way they would grant an extension, and let's keep in mind today, and i think parliament should that a delay is not automatic. the be reassured that we have that uk has to request it, and all very firm timetable. if brexiteers in cabinet 27 eu countries have to agree. are frustrated, they don't really want to show that previously said it would only happen it. if there was a concrete reason for it is now for members of the house of commons to reflect putting off the exit date. if there on what17.4 million people voted was going to be say another for, and to ensure they back referendum, a national election, if the prime minister in her efforts there was a need to pass to get a good deal. legislation, here we see a change in but for months and months she has said we will be leaving and now position, because of our what we have heard from the prey minister is she is saying something else, that she needs more time just to do that mps might delay brexit. what she has so far failed to be don't people have the right to feel quite cross about that, able to do, which is get a majority or even that they have been misled? for the deal that she has the prime minister is clear negotiated. is there a sense that if we are leaving the european union, and no option is being taken there is an extension, off the table. but the government's vital article 15 is northern irish allies extended, and it goes into believe this is a mistake. say, the i think if they start changing end ofjune, before the the time, taking off the pressure, uk can leave we'lljust be in the situation the european union, crucially before in a few months' time. the european union, crucially before the european union, crucially before the european elections, does that let's get on with it now. theresa may went down the road period for negotiations from number ten to parliament with the eu to tell mps more than 80 times
8:06 pm
could potentially see a softer brexit, that could see potentially that she would stick theresa may move some of her to the timetable and take first redlines, or do you believe that night out of the eu by 29 march. that is still possible — perhaps she might be even more if mps back her deal in the next couple of weeks. emboldened to go ahead and stick with her redlines in that but if they can't, or won't, period just before britain leaves the it now almost looks impossible european union at the end ofjune, to imagine us leaving at the end if that is what takes place. of march without a formal there is no indication that she is arrangement in place, with a possible delay able to move her redlines, because of a couple of months. she is under so much pressure but beyond that, don't be from within her own tory party. this is the key, and this is why there will so sure. a delay might remove some be some resistance in brussels to risk, but provokes many the idea of granting an extension, more real questions. if it is not clear that it will yet brexit is less likely to be lead to any big shift. there are certainly people like donald tusk, done by the time the seasons hoping that brexit would turn. laura kuenssberg, bbc be reversed, allowing time for this to news, westminster. play out, perhaps there would be well, i'm joined in the studio some big shift, a decision to go for by maddy thimont jack, a second referendum, but in fact we who's the parliamentary expert on brexit for the institute see so far, that theresa may is for government. unable to shift her redlines, because of the pressure in her own good to see you, thanks party. if that is the case, we may for coming end up injune, and see the uk in. three crucial dates and asking for another extension, three crucial votes. let's go through each because what has changed? we are
8:07 pm
one. the first, 12 marks, a vote still at this point where we do not have a solution on the backstop that on theresa may pause ‘s the uk finds acceptable, de you said deal. at the they will not open the withdrawal moment she doesn't seem to have the treaty that was agreed in november, concessions of those who feel that so there is some fear in brussels the deal isn't up that in fact, a delay untiljune to much. but she becomes a delay again and again and is still working hard on the again, because there is no enter of taking it all away. but if fundamental shift. to she does not come back with a be clear about kind of the european union and its concession that some in her party in negotiating tactics, and all of a few others in the labour ranks this, the suggestion from want, then is it her deal? those who believe that it would be ok for the the biggest challenge for theresa may is uk to leave the european union with when the deal was defeated in no deal, for it the heart january, for the first time it was rate, and put to a vote, it was the european year research group in defeated by the european year research group in the conservative party for the 230 mp5. put to a vote, it was defeated by 230 mps. she has to convince over committed brexiters, they firmly 100 mp5 that this believe that when it comes 230 mps. she has to convince over 100 mps that this time the deal is worth supporting. and i think that to the is her ultimate 11th hour, brussels will buckle. it challenge, and 118 will cave. it will not conservative mps voted against her want to have a no—deal brexit because of deal, so even if some of them change that their minds, it is likely she will effects on german car—makers, and italian wine producers and so on and have to convert quite a significant so forth. they would rather number of labour mps have to convert quite a significant number of labourmps to have to convert quite a significant number of labour mps to support cut a deal that they would like, her. is that the possibility that there rather than allow the
8:08 pm
could be another vote to take no european union to deal off the table the next day, go that parliament could vote and down this particular road. do you see any suggestion that decide that you know deal breaker is not the way brussels could cave at the very, very last that parliament should minute? go. could that force the hand that would be a if enough mps get the deal through? very risky data. if which i think is what she is you check our coverage, they have bargaining with. that is the been writing recently about how challenge she's got, she must unprepared the uk as for a no deal convince certain members of her scenario. just as an example, the uk party or who would like a harder brexit or more in favour of leaving produces very little in the way of without a deal. that if they don't fresh fruit and vegetables, in march leave without a deal, there and april, the time of year when that's hard brags that, this is a risk that a softer brexit were no crash out would happen. and importers, the brea ks risk that a softer brexit were no breaks at all might happen. 0n the food importers in britain do not other hand she is trying to persuade know how they would get the food in those who are concerned about what that they need from the uk. a note deal brexit will my colleague simon mark reported 90% of mean, that lettuce at this time of could happen. —— no—deal brexit. year for the uk consumer comes from that year. she's essentially promising a vote to each part of her party if they vote down the deal, and it will on the eu side, there is an absolute depend on how those numbers play out confidence of certainty that the in parliament. 0k. economic pain is so much greater on depend on how those numbers play out in parliament. ok. so we touched on the side of the uk in this case, that second crucial vote plessy have to in on 13 march, a vote on no mind that for the deal. the eu, this issue around the
8:09 pm
consensus seems to be that island the vote border is an existential issue. it in parliament is for that, that speaks to the integrity of the there is a majority that does not wa nt there is a majority that does not want britain to leave the eu with a eu single market. which after serving no deal? that's right. asa single market. which after serving as a peace project, the eu exists we've seen for the benefits of that market. that on 29 january, there was a vote that single market is something that on an amendment to a previous the uk has made clear but love government motion saying that mps to have access to after brexit, provided it didn't have to adhere did not want no deal, so you can imagine that happening again. to the four fundamental freedoms that go along with it, like freedom now the next vote after that would be of movement. anything that would damage the next vote after that would be the 14th, that the next vote after that would be the integrity of that market is the 1ath, that is if parliament votes to take no deal seen as an existential threat to the eu off the table. in the same way that there are folks and that would be a vote in northern ireland to see to delay brexit. now is there a sense any signs that northern ireland might reunify with ireland as an existential that there is a majority for threat. that's the kind of threat that in parliament? at the moment, it seems they are facing. the 27 like there is. i think the have been rock—solid and their unity on this, crucial pa rt like there is. i think the crucial part of this is obviously that the and if it came to it in that game of uk cannot decide to do that on its chicken, they would be prepared to own, so let the uk drive off the cliff on uk cannot decide to do that on its own, so even uk cannot decide to do that on its own, so even if parliament their own. they will not blink on votes in that one. thank favour of an article 50 extension and the prime minister goes back to you forjoining us. brussels, she needs to sign off on chief brussels correspondent for all 27 other eu member politico. thank you. let's move away states. donald tusk has suggested it might
8:10 pm
from backs it now and be pragmatic to have some kind of go to indiana. india has launched air extension. it obviously would be strikes against what it claims difficult if it went are militant training camps in pakistani territory, close beyond the to the disputed region of kashmir. european elections which are it's a major escalation beginning ofjuly. so we are of tensions between the two nuclear—armed countries. looking india says the strikes at roundabout june. but targeted terrorists from the jaish—e—mohammad beginning ofjuly. so we are looking at roundaboutjune. but back to the group in balakot. first question is, but pakistan said the strikes hit an empty area and vowed the possibility to respond swiftly. of theresa may's deal being 0ur india correspondent voted on and approved, is the yogita limaye reports. likelihood of in this mountainous part of that raised by the possibility pakistan's northeast, india claims to have hit a that the third vote down the line militant group. is to it says its aircraft bombed delay brexit? it is jaish—e—mohammad's largest camp. really, really challenging to predict, honestly. i for the first time think anyone who has any since 1971, indian idea will happen doesn't know. but i jets think this is the gamble ended we are playing pakistani with, whether the possibility of airspace. delaying brexit means mps will vote down her deal with the chances to translation: i heard a huge explosion flying overhead. get something later in the morning, we saw a big crater, and some homes damaged. on down the but pakistan says there was no damage and no casualties. line. we will its spokesman put out these photos saying talk later, thank that the jets were forced to drop their payloads
8:11 pm
you. i'm joined now by conservative mp hastily unscramble away. it's about to retaliate. for north west leicestershire, andrew bridgen. india has committed uncalled good evening to you, thanks for for aggression, to which joining us. the turn of events today pakistan shall respond at must be rather alarming for you, the time and place of because of these series of votes that will take place in march, which its choosing. india's actions are could ultimately mean being seen as a response to this suicide bombing 12 that brexit is delayed? well, clive, days ago. carried out by jaish—e—mohammad, not as it killed 40 troops in in indian worrying as you might think because administered kashmir. we faced amendments, hostile this is an area disputed between pakistan and amendments, wrecking amendments, india. amendments, wrecking amendments, amendments for the opposition and the neighbours have fought two wars others meant to delay, over it, and for decades it stop, reverse has faced brexit. we faced those over armed insurgency, the last few months, so by formalising them, backed by pakistan there's nothing we haven't faced —based group. before, and basically we moved india has been repeatedly urging pakistan to take action another two weeks forward towards against the jaish—e—mohammad, to preventjihadis from being 29 march. no—deal brexit is still trained and on the table, and i armed inside think as we roll closer and closer, the pressure will pakistan. build on the eu to after the suicide binding, they give major wa nted after the suicide binding, they
8:12 pm
concessions to the prime minister, wanted revenge. at the national and that is how negotiations election coming up in less than two months from now, the government work. while at the moment, the mood music and prime minister were under pressure from brussels is that there will to act. there be were celebrations in no concessions, they will not reopen the withdrawal deal, and some parts of they will not give you what you want on the india, there were celebrations irish backstop. so in some parts of india, jubilation at having struck back. let'sjust not give you what you want on the irish backstop. so let's just take but in others, there is fear all that on the face of of what will come next. yogita limaye, bbc news, mumbai. it at the dr ayesha siddiqa moment, at face value. does that is a researcher at the south asia mean that you and others in institute and pakistani military scientist, she told me how likely the erg it was that pakistan will frankly have to vote for would retaliate theresa may's deal? because the to the airstrikes by consequence of you not doing that india. there is some escalation and not voting on that deal in for the line of control, getting it through his brexit being but one hopes that delayed. not all, in the that escalation eu said will stay there, and it's they would not bow out at not going the 11th to be air hour, of course they did a strikes in response. u—turn. the eu desperately need that £39 pakistan could do that, billion of so—called but that means pushing up each other on the escalation spiral, and then both countries are nuclear divorce payment. they've got european armed, so we have a problem elections coming up, they are there. i mean the countries have fought vulnerable to populist parties and a number of words in the past, european euro sceptic parties around do you see potentially,
8:13 pm
europe. and if they if the pakistan respond with air have to announce to cut their projects and increase strikes that could escalate further subscription fees because we haven't to fully armed conflicts? done a deal, they will be in this particular conflict, very unhappy about that. huge where india crossed over leverage. 0ur the pakistani border unhappy about that. huge leverage. our economy is still at the first growing, germany has 0% growth, and italy is time after 1971 in reception to make a recession, there has never been a the war stronger time between india and pakistan, for the promised her to hold her clearly the signal that india said nerve and push the eu to to pakistan was that it's make concessions. you mentioned greece, going to violate the principle the eu was negotiating within of not intervention, itself, it was negotiating with a not intervening in each other‘s territory, number one. third party which is what we and also are. but frankly... that it sorry, ithink could escalate. third party which is what we are. but frankly... sorry, i think we lost the satellite. but you and others in the erg and now so the rhythym, the strategic others who rhythm seems to have changed. have voted down theresa may's deal, for the first time in so many years. you're a bit like a premier now pakistan doesn't league football clu b have many options. you're a bit like a premier league football club facing relegation, aren't you? you are having to i don't think india can rely do it on other people and what they do repeatedly, the air in order to get what you want, what strikes. you but nor can pakistan, could do for i think it's very good for both countries to sit and talk,
8:14 pm
yourself is vote instead of talk about escalations. her deal in. well we have to i mean you talk about india vote clever, there's only 150 mp5 deal in. well we have to vote clever, there's only 150 mps in the violating house of commons that actually campaign for leaving the eu that certain actually believe in the project. many of the norms remaining 500 never really accepted the result, and it is very difficult for those of us in the region, both sides have a claim on kashmire as we know, who believe in brexit and the will and this is a long—standing dispute, of the british people and there are links, frankly, aren't there to keep the between mohammed, the islamic extremist group, and limits wheels on, but we'll keep it for within the pakistani military. yes, long—standing linkage. another fortnight, the pressure will i mean the organisation crank up on all members still survives and works in the heart of the country. the house the training camp, it was struck because the closer we get as one, but they are, to 29 its main headquarters in the heart march, the pressure is of the country, most building. 0ur populated province. convention voted at the weekend by 80% of us, and so the organisation operates, the pro minister and when i said india violating, attended. she saw that vote, 80% of it meant violating the airspace, out attended. she saw that vote, 80% of our membership want to leave not comes through a line on 29 march, they want no extension of control, but to article 50, and they want no deal come keeping on the table. through the international if we are boundary. is the where we are now with no concessions
8:15 pm
from the eu original the and so on dispute over kashmir itself, or by 12 march, will you vote on theresa may's deal the fact that and vote at there? will you change successive administrations and your mind at that point if members of government as well as there has the been no change from brussels? no pakistani military are links to extremists? i wouldn't. and i think it's a bit of both. what went behind my constituents who voted to leave the thinking that went behind the eu overwhelmingly would be very the terror attack in sceptical of an mp who voted down a india was that withdrawal agreement which is deeply perhaps to internationalize whoever flawed and would trap did it planned it, wanted to us in a internationalize the backstop potentially in perpetuity. kashmir issue. and if that deal was bought back just a few weeks later with no that could be other reasons as well, concessions from the eu, suddenly it so kashmir is there, but also the was ok. how we fa ct so kashmir is there, but also the fact that the indian reaction is that because there are leave the eu is terror groups very operating based in pakistan, important, it is a divorce, but therefore in its defence, and what we cannot allow us for our former in this case, that it is acting partner to tell us who we can be in the future and who we can trade in self—defense. so, there is a with. sure. andrew, good to see you, bit of thanks forjoining us. both, in this case. an internal briefing paper released the fact as well by the government on the impact of a no—deal brexit, as you have alluded to
8:16 pm
is warning of significant effects on cross border trade, earlier, on tariffs which would have to be these are two nuclear armed paid, and on the northern countries. any flash point ireland economy. the document says tens of thousands that of businesses are ill—prepared. ta kes pla ce countries. any flash point that takes place in this today the governor of the bank of england, mark carney, region, it could potentially be catastrophic. said he would guarantee it can be. that the bank's forecasts for economic growth, would and what adds be reduced. to my earlier, i spoke to our business anxiety is if you talk to correspondent, simon gompertz explained the detail of ordinary people, or even the educated lot, that paper looking at it, you say yes, and this is notjust indians and a lot of the information is gathered pakistanis in their own countries, the indians and pakistanis together as it would be for cabinet members to see, so those things in the you've heard about trade ex—pat community in britain, they being slowed down very badly, have had a chance to speak with me if there was a no—deal brexit about food supplies, recently. they do not really think and prices being about what would affected, happen if there about the economy being is about what would happen if there is as much a nuclear escalation, or a flash as 9% smaller than point where nuclear weapons are actually used. i mean it otherwise would be, after the general belief is that because of deterrence 15 years. and because both countries have if we started brexit off with a no deal exit, weapons, there will never be used. those things are in there, but there is a 1%, but there is some aspects that there is a 1% a lot of viewers wouldn't chance, it's extremely scary for the entire world, for the entire region, have seen it before, and definitely for india and
8:17 pm

premier league games taking place this evening. brendan rodgers will programme on like what he's seen so far, radio three, and sunday demarai gray has given them an early lead. the other classics i think it is. it was chosen by games are someone as one of there, one of goalless so his favourite compositions. far. mark hollis' live text commentary on the bbc a contribution to that experimental sport website. chelsea manager maurizio sarri says feel of the band, how is that that goalkeeper kepa arrizabalaga made a big mistake in refusing to be influential on other groups coming up influential on other groups coming up at the time, and indeed groups substituted during the league cup who are around final, but he was young and the club's intention was not now? the influence really came later, so to "kill him". sarri was speaking ahead the influence canine of their premier league game against tottenham on wednesday, and also added that he hadn't bands radiohead, elbow, vampire decided on whether kepa would start that weekend, you mentioned, st vincent, these are match. he said sorry to later names. it was also in the approach, because spirit of eden the technical staff, but it was took talk talk a not enough. and year to make. you then, he said sorry to the know, it's recorded in the dark for team—mates into the some of that, for laughing stock, club. so i mark hollis went even further. he recorded totally in the dark, think that he made a big and he mistake, but we banned the clocks to make sure that need to be eve ryo ne banned the clocks to make sure that everyone kind of lasted their sense of time. he was after tolerant. we don't something very
8:21 pm
want spiritual, and wet talk talk dead is to kill there is an entire genre called 00:21:04,1000 --> 00:21:05,361 post him. so rock, but to post rock there is is a quite a position. intellectual genre and if you listen england play their first match too a three especially mark hollis' of the she believes cup tomorrow voice, it's emotional music. what he against brazil in philadelphia. was trying to do was it's the first of three matches with games against the usa get something you are and human, you know he and japan to come as england continue their preparations would ahead of the world cup say, i have no interest in this summer in france. complications, you know, he said captain steph houghton is not daunted by brazil's don't play two notes, one will do. attacking and don't play 0nenote if you haven't got anything to say in the talent. first that was revolutionary it whenever i go into england matches, was an approach really. is that why he it's all about winning you're one view won battles. and i think that sort of retired from the limelight in order to sort of be free to if you know you can do that, experiment and to sort of not be you've given the team a better chance of winning. so for me influenced by, you know, the charts or pop in general, is that why to play against he is the likes of them, it's a sort of the re recluse that he fantastic opportunity to show individually was at the end. finally enough, i don't think what we are like as defenders, but we also know that it gives us the so. what happened was, we best chance of winning. know that wales lock cory hill will miss the rest of the six nations torture artist met, but when he was after injuring an ankle making those unusual albums, he in saturday's win against england. the dragons second row was hurt was very productive. i think it was more as he scored the second—half try a case that he felt which gave wales the lead.
8:22 pm
there's better injury news elsewhere it's going to for the welsh — full—back ta ke a case that he felt it's going to take a while to make these things leigh halfpenny is back such as intense, but it's almost in contention after playing a full game for scarlets like he had done what he set out on sunday after three months out following to do. this is a very, very unusual thing in pop music, almost everyone concussion. wa nts to thing in pop music, almost everyone wants to continue until you know, moeen ali will return home from the west indies until the end comes. he began a after the conclusion of the one—day series. family man, he had doused my ali was initially named in the squad kids, he lived in wimbledon, he decided for the final three games of the caribbean tour, that he couldn't combine the touring but the selectors have had a change life with normal family life, of heart as they continue to manage that he couldn't combine the touring life with normalfamily life, and the workloads of key players. this is almost unheard of, you know, he'll now fly home after the final laughing stock came out in 91, i one—dayer in st lucia. think it was, and all rounder sam curran a solo album in will replace him for 98, and the occasional commission, mark hollis didn't really make music the t20 series. any more. i do think it is a that's all the sport for now. case of i'll have more not so much being tormented, but not so much being reclusive, but more for you in feeling that he had done to set out sportsday at what he had —— done what he had set 10:30pm. out to do. thank you forjoining us. this time last year the uk was being ravaged by the beast from the east, with temperatures dropping to as low as minus twelve. let's talk now what a contrast now — to the labour for the second day in a row parts
8:23 pm
of england and wales have seen mp caroline flint. thank you so much record breaking temperatures — for being with us. first of all, 20.8 degrees celsius in porthmadog, north wales and a new uk winter what you make of the possibility now that brexit record of 21.2 in kew gardens, could be delayed ? of the possibility now that brexit could be delayed? it may not southwest london. be 29 that's warmer than some popular march? i don't think mediterranean cities like barcelona. any long delay so could this be the new normal? will help solve this situation. what 0ur science editor david shukman has spent the day in the record breaking we need is an improved deal to come temperatures back to from the prime minister, and hopefully we can get a majority of at parliament back when it comes back kew: on 12 march. the problem we've had in parliament for the last thousand a wonderful display of colour here daysis atq a wonderful display of colour here in parliament for the last thousand days is that there are hard—line at q gardens in west london, and views on both the brexit side and with the air so unusually warm, and the remaining side for whom no deal the sun is so dazzlingly bright, will ever be good enough. so it really does feel like summer, and i know people want to focus on taking no no surprise, this extraordinary spell deal off the table, i don't of weather has set new records for support temperatures for this crashing out without a deal, but we need to focus on an improved deal so time of year. we can vote on it. the mood music obviously a lot of people are out enjoying themselves. from brussels is that it these crowds are apparently nearly double the numbers you'd normally will not get here in february. reopen the withdrawal deal, there and of course, most people will not be any are in shirtsleeves or sun hats. renegotiation, and there is a kind of the best they could offer holiday atmosphere. but what does this sudden warmth is some mean for the natural world? kind of addendum or code is still to the bumblebees are
8:24 pm
the deal out, and very busy. that will i caught up with one suggest any of the experts here, trying to work out what happens implementation of the backstop will as the insects are active not go on forever. but... but too early in the year. what i was going to say was this. often a lot of solitary bees the complication for the labour party have a very short window is where they're active in the year that if theresa may's deal is not and it mightjust be successful on 12 march, a month, a couple of then they weeks. could be backing another referendum. if there is a mismatch with their food plant, how do you feel about that might be really a that?|j could be backing another referendum. how do you feel about that? i don't problem for them to be successful, support a second referendum. for a number of reasons, first of all, yeah. while the warm spell rolls on, it's here at kew gardens that when the referendum happened in weather history has been made, 2016, andi with a new record. when the referendum happened in 2016, and i campaigned for remain in the highest winter temperature ever what was a majority leave the recorded in britain. seat, we know the average world the labour party, and i absolutely temperature is rising agree with the labour party on with global warming, so is this the reason? we asked a leading this, recognised that actually the outcome climate scientist. was final, we had to accept the as global temperatures rise, then we are going to get more result. when we had a general extreme heat events. election in 2017 this is just one example on labour leaflets, happening today. and as we go into the future, it said that the matter of leaving this sort of thing is going to get more common. the eu has been settled so something that's perhaps a one by the in 1000 event in the 1950s british people. and we always is now a one in
8:25 pm
respected that vote. no 15 event. now, amid this brief burst labour‘s of summer, there's something position is that we will try to secure a better deal, and i think else to be aware of. a problem with air quality. thatis secure a better deal, and i think that is where the focus needs to be. although the sky seems nice and it is not the case of and blue, there's a kind the second referendum is the only option, the of pollution you can't actually see, option before us is to secure a and for the next day or so, better deal. you mentioned here in london and many earlier about what can change, recognise parts of the country, we're being —— labour recognises you cannotjust reopen the withdrawal agreement, but warned to we can get improvements on the take care. political declaration, and the eu has already suggested that now it's time for a look at the weather we can with find ways to the backstop. i think tomasz we should use our leverage in the labour party to get a schafernaker. better deal, well how much longer is this warm particularly on things like workers' weather going to last i hear you rights and environmental standards really. and in doing so, we can move ask, one more day, when where warm on and bring the country together. day tomorrow, and then from remain and leave thursday, it's going to turn much cooler. today we get up voters voted for to 21.2 labour‘s manifesto, which was clear degrees, a new record. this evening, that we respect the outcome of the tem ptress referendum in 2016, and we will try degrees, a new record. this evening, temptress still in the teams across the southeast at the country at to get a better deal. around 8pm, further north then do you into single figures, and again a bit like believe that if theresa may's deal does not go through on last night, and the night before, 20 not a clear skies we are in for a micro 12 march, then you
8:26 pm
touch of frost. first thing wednesday will vote to keep a no—deal brexit on the morning, temperatures will be just table? is that the only language you about everything and most major think eu will understand quiz yellow towns and cities, outside of not at all, i don't support crashing town, probably around minus 1—2. thickness out without a and father for probably around minus 1—2. thickness and fatherfor a probably around minus 1—2. thickness and father for a time across the deal. we had south and the midlands on wednesday, once again the sun will be out, this awful our test environment in and promises to be another beautiful parliament where we had hardline brexiteers as well as hardline day, a shade cooler, temperatures remainders for who no deal may be 18—19 tomorrow, 15 there would ever be good enough. and that is in newcastle, and then towards the end really u nfortu nate, of the week, it is all change, it ever be good enough. and that is really unfortunate, i think it is quite frankly angered is turning a lot more unsettled, and members of the you will british public. we need to get into feel those the next phase where we secure further deals on trade and security. temperatures tumble. that is the way forward, and we have a choice as parliament. we either do what we are there to do, which is get the best outcome we can which makes sure that we leave the eu but have a strong relationship with our european neighbours going forward. and we will have a choice on 12 march to support a deal which i think will be an improved offer from what we've had before. 0r hello, i'm karin giannone, think will be an improved offer from this is 0utside source. what we've had before. or we faced the risk of a no deal
8:27 pm
theresa may concedes for the first or further time that brexit could be delayed. extending us into the the prime minister's european elections later this year and never offered a series of votes, including a postponement, making it decision. i don't think but says more time doesn't that's what the british people want, solve the problems. they expect us to secure a deal ultimately the choices we face and move on. caroline flint, thank you would remain unchanged. very much leave with a deal, leave forjoining us. with no deal, or have no let's brexit. one of the pope's former top return. you've heard those advisers, cardinal pell, two interviews there, we had is found guilty of sexual offences. andrew bridger, a staunch brexit tear, who he's the most senior catholic cleric to be convicted. does not believe round two: donald trump arrives teresa may‘s deal in vietnam on the eve of his second is excitable. we have caroline flint summit with north korea's who has reservations about the deal leader. but is willing to back it to meanwhile back in the us, reports suggest mr trump's former get the uk back on the line when it comes to lawyer will accuse the president of "criminal conduct". leaving the eu. jane 0'brien both are convinced will take that the eu us through will waiver eventually, that the eu will waiver eventually, that there will be some kind of that. fudge or deal that will mean that they can vote for theresa may's deal
8:28 pm
in the final analysis. brussels has made it clear that it will do nothing of the sort. i think what is made clear is it will not reopen negotiations on the withdrawal agreement, and i think that is where caroline flint is right, they have said they are willing to talk more about the political declaration which is the accompanying 25 pages 01’ which is the accompanying 25 pages orso, which is the accompanying 25 pages or so, setting out quite a high level of what that uk's future relationship with the eu would look like. they've also said that if the uk's redlines change, they would be willing to change their offer. for the challenge at the moment is theresa may has very much stuck to her guns. she has not changed her redline or the government's position. and in that sense, it seems difficult for her to bring back something that will satisfy her backbenchers. so she comes back with some kind of assurance. as you say, that will probably not be enough for the remainders, is it? her
8:29 pm
vote democrat deal will be voted down ain? democrat deal will be voted down again? i think what we could see as she narrows down the gap. for example, a few of her mps would be willing to support that, because some of the people who voted against her deal in january were some of the people who voted against her deal injanuary were mps who we re her deal injanuary were mps who were normally quite willing to support the prime minister. so some of them might come around because they've realised she's renegotiated and had conversations with the eu, and had conversations with the eu, and also the likes of caroline flint for example, who in labour seems to be more willing to support the deal this time around. so she might close the gap, but the challenge really is that the math still doesn't quite add up at this point. so she closes the gap from over 100 to 60, but her deal does not go through. we then get a vote on taking no deal off the table, it looks like there is a majority in parliament for that. we then get another vote on the next day about delaying brexit, which means theresa may has until the end
8:30 pm
ofjune to come up with something. and because the european elections arejuly one. now does that mean that when she goes back to brussels, if all that scenario plays out and we get to a continuation of the discussions up to the end ofjune, are we talking more of a soft brexit coming up, rather than any kind of ha rd coming up, rather than any kind of hard brexit? because why would she keep the same redlines that have not gotten her the deal over the line that she wanted in the first place? i think it is really difficult to predict what the prime minister will do, andi predict what the prime minister will do, and i think that is one of the things that we have seen consistently throughout their process , consistently throughout their process, she's kept her cards close to her chest. so we don't know where she will pivot if her deal gets voted down again. does she stick more on the hardline of a party, or does she give it more to the centre, hope to reach out across party... where would you put your money? i'm not sure i'm a
8:31 pm
betting person. it really isn't clear, and that is what we saw today. for example, the question put up to her statement this afternoon was, what will the government do? will they support the amendment saying we should go for no deal, or wealthiest —— support the amendment for extending article 50? she refused to say even that today, soi she refused to say even that today, so i think we will maybe get a better idea when we get to those votes, because if the government ends up saying that we will not support pursuing no deal, it suggests she would pivot closer to softer brexit. 0k, suggests she would pivot closer to softer brexit. ok, but we could still end up leaving without a deal? definitely. we've been saying co nsta ntly definitely. we've been saying constantly that the two ways to avoid a no—deal brexit are to vote for a negotiated deal, whatever that may be, orfor the for a negotiated deal, whatever that may be, or for the government to decide to revoke article 50. because delaying article 50 only means delaying article 50 only means delaying the possibility of leaving the eu without a deal. thank you so much for staying
8:32 pm
with us. in the papers, my guests will be an end mannan and caroline wheeler, deputy political editor at the sunday times. stay with for that. now it's time for a look at the weather with tomasz schafernaker. well how much longer is this warm weather going to last, i hear you ask. one more day, one more warm day tomorrow, and then from thursday, it's going to turn much cooler. today we got up to 21.2, and new record. this evening, temperatures still in the teens across the southeast of the country at around 8pm. further north, into single figures, and again a bit like last night, and the night before, with the clear skies, we are in for a touch of frost. so first thing on wednesday morning, temperatures will be just above freezing in a most major towns and cities. outside of town probably around —1 or two, could be some thick mist
8:33 pm
and fog around for a time, and across the south and the midlands on wednesday, but once again, the sun will be out, it promises to be another beautiful day, a shade cooler, temperatures may be 18—19 tomorrow, 15 there in newcastle. then towards the end of the week, it will change. it's turning a lot more unsettled, and you will feel those temperatures tumble.
