the eu has repeatedly made it clear that the withdrawal agreement is non—negotiable. hanol the two leaders are expected to discuss progress towards ridding the korean peninsula what is it that the prime minister of nuclear weapons. but there's been little indication does not get of that? that north korea intends to disarm. prime minister, businesses and citizens are weighed about no theresa may has opened the door for brexit to be postponed —— prime minister, businesses beyond the end of next month. and citizens are worried about no the british prime minister's told deal, not worried about the supply mps if, in a fortnight, of medicines, worried they don't back her revised about the supply of food. agreement and reject no deal, it is the height of irresponsibility they can vote on delaying britain's for any government to threaten its citizens departure from the eu. with these consequences. and the prime minister sits president trump's convicted former and laughs at what she is doing lawyer says he's glad to the people of the united kingdom, of the opportunity to set the record what a disgrace. mr speaker this prime minister straight about alleged criminal indicates that she is simply not fit for office. conduct by the president can i just say to the right after his first day of testimony honourable gentlemen, before a us senate if he wants to end uncertainty intelligence committee. and deal with the michael cohen said the american issues he raised... people could then decide if he wants to and the uncertainty who was telling the truth. and deal with the answer issues he raised in my statement, he should vote for a deal. simple. theresa may. it is just

it isjust gone it is just gone to 30 am in the morning. you are up—to—date on the headlines. now on bbc news, tuesday in parliament. but things are far from simple over —— 2:30am. on the back benches but once again, theresa may found herself on the receiving end hello there and welcome of contradictory opinions and advice. to tuesday in parliament. isn't the danger that we will merely on this programme, theresa may continue the press and pantomime announces a major shift in her brexit strategy, performance through the next three with the possibility of britain's months and the public will be withdrawalfrom the eu being delayed dismayed as we approach that date beyond the 29th of march. and find there is a similar chaos but she has a warning for mp5. about where we are going? a deal that can command the majority of this house is eminently possible, if there can be an agreement an extension cannot take on changes to the backstop and putting in place alternative arrangements. no deal off the table. can she also comfirm it is incumbent on mps from all sides of this house but the labour leader reckons to vote for this deal which will be theresa may has no one in the national interests to blame but herself. any extension is only necessary of this country? because of the prime minister's shambolic negotiations and her decision to run down the clock. she committed to binding legal changes in terms of the backstop, effectively reopening the withdrawal agreement and she must know that plans to change the rules on organ without a regally watertight way donation consent in england out of the backstop, have cleared their final then certainly we could not support any future withdrawal agreement hurdle in parliament. brought to this house. i am convinced that the passing of this bill will lead to many more

organ donations and lives saved. what assurances do we have that votes will definitely be put also in this programme, at the government will abide by any the government asked what it's going to do after ruling it should motions that also the entire cabinet end its control of will abide by any votes and also the chagos islands. and there's a call for the nhs what will the government's policy be in those circumstances? will it be to argue to get with the digital age. for no deal or will it be to argue for an extension? a digitalfirst nhs will mean a seamless interaction between gps, hospitals and community care. there's been much talk about whether or not brexit will have to be delayed, but not theresa may has i recognise the concern of right —— will have to be delayed, honourable and honourable members for ensuring that the voice but now theresa may has for the first time put it forward of the house is heard and that is why i said those votes as an option to mp5. will be brought before the house facing threats of resignation from some of her ministers, should we lose the meaningful vote. she told the commons that if mps i want to continue to see this house rejected an amended version suuport a meaningful vote of her withdrawal agreement, so that we can leave with a deal. they would be able to vote on whether or not they supported britain leaving the eu without a deal. if that option was also rejected, to delay article 50 would incur many there would be a vote on extending billions of pounds of taxpayers article 50 and delaying money available otherwise for public services and which i realise the brexit process. might not be handed over to the eu theresa may spent sunday and monday once more pressing her case to eu leaders. if we left on the 29th of march. that this is a shameful moment,

nothing has changed. apart from the fact that this time in a meeting some of us to use over of the egyptian resort there are now sitting over here. of sharm el sheikhm where the idea of extending article 50 is said and one of the reasons for that is because yet again we see to have been floated. back in the commons, in the prime minister a planning theresa may set out the options. taking at the same time that if the house, having the rejected leaving with the deal fudge is being created. a failure to put the country negoiated with the eu, then rejects leaving on the 29th and that nation's interest first. of march without a withdrawl agreement and future frame work, then the government will on the 14th it is better than leaving of march bring forward a motion without the deal with is the current on whether parliament wants to seek a short, limited trajectory for the uk given extension to article 50. the letter that she and if the house votes wrote in march 2017. for an extension, seek to agree that extension approved by the house with the eu and bring forward the necessary legislation to change the exit date, commiserate with that extension. you fought against the deal on march the 12th, that leads to a vote of no deal on the 13th. these commitments all fit and when we vote against no deal again on the 13th, that will vote to extend article 50 the timescale set out on the 14th and it will lead to back in the private members' bill to the table for the duration for extended negotiations. by the right honourable member. and vote no deal again on the 14th they are commitments i am and if we vote for extending article making as prime minister and i will stick by them 50 on the 14th and that leads to no as i have previous commitments. deal back on the table as i have... for the duration of the extended as i have previous commitments, to make statements and table negotiations, isn't this amendable motions by specific dates. the political equivalent

of swimming around in circles? migrants crossing the english channel from northern france will be an enduring challenge, but let me be clear, senior police officers have told mps. i did not want to see they're saying the number of people article 50 extended. making the journey spiked at the end of last year and would rise again 0ur absolute focus should be as the weather improves. on working to get a deal and leaving they said people were motivated to make the crossing on the 29th of march. because of the very low risk of being returned to the country of origin. a short extension not beyond the end ofjune will have to be a one—off. if we had not taken part over the last year, over 500 in the european parliament elections migraines have made thejourney it would be extremely difficult from northern france to the uk. the overwhelming majority of those have claimed iranian citizenship and indeed asylum once to extend again. they reached the uk. it will create a sharper cliff edge in a few months' time. interestingly, more than 80% of those journeys were made an extension cannot take in the last three months of the year no deal off the table. so a significant spike and in the only way to do that is to revoke december, in the region of 250 article 50, which i shall not do. 0r agree a deal. migrants who make thatjourney. a major factor was the weather. the improving weather which will be notable has led to more people and she turned tojeremy corbyn‘s making that journey. shift in his position over he thought it was significant that

the weekend when he confirmed his most people were claiming asylum. party will move back another public vote if it's typically in the past, if people had own proposed propose brexit deal been using what we call general is rejected on wednesday. maritimes soap boats of various descriptions to make the journey from northern france, they will be doing so in a clandestine fashion so they are looking to avoid he has gone back on his promise being detected before, during and after arrival in the uk to respect the referendum result and now wants to hold a divisive and that typically would mean second referendum that there are sure parties greeting them will take our country at a rifle and they would be moving right back to square one. the uk to their anybody who voted labour at the last election because they thought intended destination. he would deliver brexit what we see in the matters we are talking about today is markedly different because the business model is essentially for the migrants will rightly be appalled. to reach the point where they can engage with uk authorities whether that be on land or indeed at sea. this house voted to trigger article and claim asylum at that point. 50 and this house has a responsibility to deliver on the result. the very credibility of our democracy is at stake. the prime minister is promising to achieve something that she knows is not achievable and is stringing people along. so will she be straight with people? they want to be found and helped, there is a big difference on some the withdrawal agreement has not occasions from their own boats been reopened and there is no they are phoning 999 attempt to get a unilateral exit and asking for our help. on the backstop or a time limit. there is a significant shift. the prime minister said a delay

in this process does not deliver a decision and parliament, it does not deliver a deal. he said the uk and french authorities working i can only assume she was being self—critical, closely together. she has so far promised a vote we have got a european liaison union based in kent on a deal in december, january, with the national crime agency, national border force, february and now march. and my officers and staff and only managed to put a vote once. are there and on a daily basis injanuary, when it was we are interacting comprehensively defeated. we believe and getting with french authorities. three times a week, my officers go the terms of our exit right, over to the units he was talking that is why we believe about where we share intelligence. in our alternative plan. the prime minister's botched deal provides no certainty or guarantees for the future and was comprehensively rejected by this house. both sides of the channel, if you are working on the problem we cannot risk our country's in kent and at this side, industry and people's livelihoods. because they have already left and so, if it somehow does pass and therefore what more can be done and some form at a later stage, or do you think you are working well we believe it must be a complementary public vote with the french authorities to see if people feel and really there will always be that is what they voted for. some that get through? the prime minister seems to be and i think in reality belatedly listening to the house. there will always be some that get any extension is only necessary because of the prime minister's through and one of the messages shambolic negotiations i wanted to leave today and her decision to is an understanding that this run down the clock. is likely to be an enduring but until the prime minister challenge for us particularly is clear, what alternative as we move into the summer months. she will put forward in the circumstances, but there is not a lot we can do then she is simply continuing and i do think numbers tend to suggest that some of our work has been effective.

to run down the clock. 00:07:07,571 --> 2147483051:40:18,501 she promises a short 2147483051:40:18,501 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 extension but for what? but i completely agree, success here is stopping people wishing to travel and actually travelling from france. and it seems despite some of the work you are doing, perhaps the biggest factor at the moment is the climate and the weather to deter people from making a crossing. so, it is the one thing or a number of points we can use to continue to see these numbers coming down and we do not see another spike in the last quarter of this year? candidly, one of the impacts on this business model as he has said is that people are happy to be, actively seeking being caught so to speak or engaging with the uk authorities because rightly or wrongly they do not fear being returned. and that i think is a significant player in the issue here and i know if the home office colleagues were here and i do not want to speak on their behalf, will say there have been a number of returns, it is not my area of expertise at all. but i think it is at the moment in the minds of the facilitators and the minds of those people willing to make the journey that there is a very low risk

they will be returned. now plans to change the rule on organ donation consent in england have cleared the final hurdle in parliament. when the new system comes into effect next year, consent will be presumed unless people have opted out. presumed consent has been operating in wales since december 2015, which now has a 75% organ donation consent rate. legislation will be known as max and keira's law, after a boy who received a heart transplant and the girl who donated it. i am convinced that the passing of this bill will lead to many more organ donations and lives saved, while retaining the involvement of the family and what will remain a remarkably altruistic act of giving. my lords, i beg to move. lord hunt. and with that, the bill cleared parliament meaning it will shortly become law. staying in the house of the lords, peers inflicted two defeats on the government over

its mental capacity bill. setting itself up for a round of ping—pong with the house of commons. the bill deals with the detention of vulnerable people in care homes or hospitals. it aims to replace the current deprivation of liberty safeguards scheme, with the new simpler system. but critics in the lords rejected the meaning of deprivation of liberty proposed by minsters as too convoluted and not easily understood. and there was a second defeat on hospital record keeping. you're watching tuesday in parliament with me, alicia mccarthy. and don't forget, you can find all our programmes by the bbc iplayer. just search for parliament. now the governor of the bank of england, mark carney has repeated to mps in the treasury committee his fears of a negative economic impact of a no—deal brexit with no transition period. in its february forecast, the bank of england predicted a growth and national output or gdp during 2019 on the assumption of what it called a smooth exit from the eu. if we come back and there is no deal, no transition,

i guarantee you the path of gdp in the forecast will be materially lower than it is in this february forecast which is there is a deal at a smooth transition. mark carney said the bank would be on hand to offer financial help at the time of brexit. we will provide the support to the economy that we can while keeping inflation low and stable. the challenge is actually doing that with a no deal, no transition brexit will be inflationary. there'll be tariffs, that's directly inflationary, the exchange rate is likely to depreciate, perhaps substantially and also inflationary. but one mp wondered would a no—deal

brexit bring clarity? some might suggest and i personally would not, at least if we go ahead and have a no—deal brexit on the 19th of march, that it will at least bring some certainty towards all of that and we will know what our future relationship is and we can get on with the process of making that recovery that you've identified. what is your position on that? i think that is completely wrong. the reason why firms are holding out investment and are nervous is because they are very worried about the risk of a no deal, no transition brexit and the disruption that will bring along for some parts of the economy, not for all parts of the economy. if you say to them, let's make the disruption happen, how can that possibly be a good thing? that just does not make any sense at all. so the only way to reassure them is to say, exactly what the governor has been saying and saying for years, whatever change are going to make, tell people what the change is going to be and then give them several years

to prepare for that. now labour has demanded answers about the murder of the saudi journalist jamal khashoggi. he was killed after entering the saudi consulate in istanbul in october last year. he was a strong critic of the saudi government, his body was reportedly dismembered and still has not been found. the shadow foreign secretary tried to put pressure on the uk government over the case. when we gather for the next foreign office questions on the second of april, it will be six months to the day that he was murdered in istanbul. so can he ask his boss, the foreign secretary, to guarantee to the house that before we reach that sad milestone, he will present the findings on who ultimately is responsible for that murder and what actions the government is taking in response? my right honourable friend, the foreign secretary will be in saudi and i hope

that there will be progress in relation to the very serious issue that the right honourable lady brings up, i also say this, she will be aware, we are going to be hosting a conference in this country again, a very important part of british global soft power. a conference that will look at the whole issue of the dangers that journalists have to go through across the world. he said some 80 journalists have been murdered last year and many hundreds locked up. i think internationally we need to come up and stand together for those values. while the conference is important, it is hardly an answer to a murder ofjamal khashoggi. she asked her question again. by the time of the next office questions, six months on from the jamal khashoggi murder, with a foreign secretary be telling us all of the people who he believes are responsible and what action, what action, they are going to take in response? my right honourable friend will be in saudi arabia and this will be discussed and i hope he will be in a position to update

the house on the second of april prior at that time. a conservative backbencher moved on to the situation in venezuela. my right honourable friend will of been as shocked as i was to see the appalling scenes of venezuelian troops using violence and intimidation tp prevent vital aid from entering their country, a country that has been ravaged by socialism for decades. will hejoin me and all parties around the world, but in particular, the labour leadership in this house to ultimately condemn the actions of maduro and the illegitimate regime in venezuela? everyone utterly condemns the barring of much—needed aid getting into venezuela and we all stand together and condemning those who are preventing that much—needed source of supply.

sir alan duncan. now, the un's highest court has ruled that the uk should and its control of the chagos islands in the indian ocean as rapidly as possible. the foreign office says it is advisory, not a binding judgement. mauritius claims they were forced to give up the islands, now a british 0verseas territory in 1965, in exchange for independence, which it gained in 1968. the british government evicted the entire population of the chagos islands before inviting the united states to build a military base on diego garcia, one of the larger atolls. the government take the lead by initiating discussions with the chagossian government, with a view to help to restore the rights of the chagossians and the other 53 outer isles. this is an advisory opinion and not a judgement but we'll look at the detail of it carefully and it is a complex opinion and needs analysis and he makes a good point that there will be a desire to engage with mauritius.

this is a clear one that should be put right and certainly when the noble lady talks about an advisory decision, what she has to remember is that 33 countries signed the referral to the international court, along with mauritius. the whole of the commonwealth is united against us on the subject. it is not a good human rights record to forcibly expel islanders, innocent people to make way for an american base or to encourage them and to encourage them by shooting their dogs with which they use to do fishing. that is not a good human rights record. shouldn't we now accept the international courtjudgement gracefully and apologise to the islanders? lady goldie said the uk was engaging

with the chagossians. we have funded a package of support over a period of ten years starting in 2016. that has enabled visits by chagossians over the territory and one is going on as we speak and those visits have been well received by participants and there are plans for more visits. the uk has been endeavoring to engage with them and do something constructive to them remain related with their cultural origins. finally, it is time to send fax machines and pages into the dustbin of history? despite the seemingly unstoppable rise of the e—mails and mobile phones, it turns out there are 100,000 pages and 8000 fax machines still in use in the national health service. the health secretary has said fax machines must be phased out of the nhs by april of next year. a fellow conservative is not proposing to put that commitment in the law.

alan mak said digital tools could turbo—charge the fight against cancer, dementia and other diseases. digital first nhs would mean seamless interaction between gps, hospitals and community care. it would also mean patients not having to wait for an appointment to be confirmed in the post and an end to paper records being lost. at its most cutting—edge, personalised medicine is the key product of digitalization. personalised medicine taking into account patient‘s genetic profile will become a staple and the doctor's tool box. the future of health care is exciting and it means we must upgrade our nhs and its technology for the smartphone era. now although his bill cleared its first parliamentary hurdle, without government support, it stands very little chance of becoming law due to a lack of parliamentary time. and that is it for me for now, but do join me at the same time tomorrow for the highlights of today at westminster, including prime ministers questions and the latest round of brexit votes. but for now from me,

alicia mccarthy, goodbye. hello there. this unusually warm weather isn't going to last forever, and as we change the month, so we're going to change the weather quite significantly. over the past few days, though, we've seen the temperatures creeping up day by day, culminating in 21.2 celsius at kew gardens yesterday. but our weather is changing because the position of the jet stream is going to change. we've been on the warm side of it for a long time now, but look what happens out in the atlantic. a strengthening westerly jet is heading our way. that's going to bring cooler air, and it will bring more changeable weather as well. so today, make the most

of the sunshine. today is probably the last of the warm and sunny days. and it will be a lovely day, but it's a bit of a chilly start out there. we've got temperatures close to freezing in one or two places, and there's a bit more mist and fog around as well in the morning, across southern england, parts of the midlands, the vale of york, and around the moray firth too. but it will tend to lift, and we should see the sunshine coming out far and wide. a bit more cloud coming into northern ireland at times, western and most parts of scotland and the irish sea. there is lots of sunshine around and more warmth as well, with the higher temperatures again around the london area, around 19 or 20 celsius. so a lovely day to come for many of us. 0ur persistent area of high pressure, though, is retreating. it's getting sucked away down towards iberia and the azores, which is where it should be, really, at this time of the year. it allows these weather fronts to come in from the atlantic. and you'll notice much, much more cloud around on thursday. it'll be rather dull and misty and murky, and we could see some bursts of rain coming into wales,

perhaps north—west england, through the midlands and southern england. a limited amount of sunshine in the south—west. most places will be cloudy. nine degrees in scotland, a few spots of rain in the north—east of scotland. 12 or 13 further south at best, significantly lower than we've seen over the past few days or so. may find a little ridge of high pressure coming in behind, drying things off on friday, ahead of the next weather front arriving from the atlantic. this is where all our weather is going to be coming from. it'll start off dull, misty, with some patchy fog again on friday. may stay quite cloudy for eastern areas. further west, there may be some sunshine ahead of this rain, which holds off until late in the day. but those temperatures are back down to 11 or 12 celsius, still slightly above average for the time of year, but quite different from what we've been used to. it is not really going to get an awful lot warmer over the weekend, either. we'll see bands of rain coming in from the atlantic followed by sunshine and showers. and it could be quite windy, as well. there's quite a deep area of low

pressure coming across the north of the uk. some very windy weather for southern scotland, northern ireland, and also across northern england. welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe. my name is mike embley. our top stories: once more with feeling — donald trump and kim jong—un arrive in vietnam ahead of their second summit. theresa may admits britain's departure from the eu could be delayed as her government warns of a severe impact if the uk leaves without a brexit deal. donald trump's former fixer testifies in washington. already jailed for lying to congress, he says he welcomes the chance to tell the truth.

and off with his head — the 800—year—old remains stolen from a church in ireland.
