the us attorney general defends in a remarkable moment, the president saying the trump campaign may have been mr barr told senators he thought there was reason to believe spied on by us intelligence. the trump campaign was and this glowing golden wrongfully spied on by us image looks beautiful, it is in fact their first ever intelligence services. photograph of a black hole and it's an absolute monster. mr barr wouldn't explain why anyone else feeling he thought mr trump's campaign might have been the subject a little small right now? of unauthorised surveillance by the fbi — but he said it's something he feels looking at he region that we've should be investigated. never looked at before. a region we cannot really imagine being there. i think spying on a political it feels like really looking at the gates of hell. at the ends of the campaign isa i think spying on a political campaign is a big deal. i think some spying did occur. space and time. democrats believe the fbi had valid reason to investigate the trump campaigns ties to russia hello and welcome — during the election. i'm katty kay in washington, christian fraser is in brussels. but mr barr's comments will be theresa may is yet again music to mr trump's ears. in brussels to meet eu leaders again, today, the president slammed at an emergency summit. the mueller investigation they'll decide over the next few as an attempted "coup." hours whether to offer the uk another delay to the brexit process. this was an attempted coup, this was mrs may wants to postpone the date an attempted take—down of the the uk leaves the eu president and what they did was beyond this friday — treason. what they did was terrible. that's the current set date for the uk's departure —

until the 30th june. what they did was against our but the eu is expected to offer a longer delay constitution and everything we stand after the european council president for. donald tusk urged the other among those questioning 27 leaders to back the attorney general today was a flexible extension, democratic senator chris van hollen, of up to a year, with certain conditions. who joins us now from capitol hill. here's what theresa may said as she arrived in brussels earlier. thank you forjoining us. what did i'm here with fellow leaders to talk you make of what the attorney general said about the possibility about a request i've put in for a short extension to article 50. that the trump campaign was spied on and i know many people will be by us intelligence services during frustrated that the summit is taking the campaign? here we have an place at all because the uk should have left the eu by now and i greatly regret the fact that attorney general who hasn't even parliament has not been able to pass a deal. delivered the mueller report to the congress and is talking about the french say the extension is contingent protecting major parts of it and on what mrs may tells them. instead of making sure he does that they want some evidence he said he is going to look onto there is a plan. what he said was buying on the trump but is is not likely they will veto the request. campaign, but he then acknowledged donald tusk‘s eve of summit letter to leaders suggests the eu will plump that he had no evidence and no for a much longer flexible extension specific evidence, so clearly he is to get away from these month to month crises. doing the president's bidding. he but it is likely that the extension has been tweeting about this for will have stringent months or even years now, so it's conditions attached.

let's talk to our europe very worrisome to have an attorney editor katya adler. general who on the one hand has not been fully forthcoming with the multimacro report and in the other we think we know what is going to seems to be doing president's happen this evening... be careful! bidding in washington watching a fishing expedition in these unfunded but the 27 leaders want to get areas. what role should the us inside the room without their advisers. an attempt to take a attorney general be playing in a tougher line than —— they tend to special prosecution of this nature? ta ke tougher line than —— they tend to take a tougher line than the diplomats. i would say it is wide open at the moment... not quite first of all with respect to the mueller report he should be white. is it possible that any will delivering the report to congress and he needs to do that right away. say no to theresa may's request an the american public deserve to see it. with respect to issues regarding extension, but it is unlikely because they want to avoid a no—deal brexit the spidey. she hasjust been the clinton campaign, as you know we speaking to them, you say that we already knew that there was a pfizer think we know, and it is true that warrant that had been issued under most countries are moving towards a due process of law, and the attorney longer extension, but it all depends on what the payments are said to general again said today there was no new evidence that would lead him them. they want to know what she is going to do with this extra time. —— to open an investigation which

obviously leads you to the what are the prime minister said to conclusion that he is just responding to political pressure them. and she has not performed very from the white house. and that is well in brexit summits previously, definitely not the appropriate role they will draw conclusions from that ofa definitely not the appropriate role of a united states attorney general. they are not supposed to do the and now they are having their debate overdinner. and now they are having their debate over dinner. they are sitting in president's bidding, they are supposed to abide by the rule of law quite an intimate, severe... —— an and not go on fishing expeditions. it is interesting that he is talking about... he is talking about the fbi going without any idea of something to investigate and now he will intimate, setting. it really is about the kind of conditions that they are looking to attach to it, investigate the fbi without really knowing that there is something to fans in particular. macron wants investigate. that's right. he didn't tougher conditions. he does not want the uk to be off the hook, as it were. he doesn't want to punish have any evidential basis that he them, but he doesn't want another presented to the committee for frittered away with internal launching this fishing expedition, bickering in parliament. he wants to so you have to conclude that he is see that there is a process, because responding to the president's if there is a longer extension they tweets. this is the same attorney really wa nt if there is a longer extension they really want to avoid a no deal at the end of that. there are pros and general who took the mueller report that did not exonerate the president

cons to both a longer extension and a shorter extension, to the longer on claim of extraction ofjustice extension, what extent are the leaders concerned that there could and decided to substitute his own bea leaders concerned that there could be a change of government in that time in the uk that could get up any opinion for the mueller commission potential deal and they could say we conclusions. without even giving us are starting from scratch, or doing the full mueller report yet. so it something totally different? i'm is increasingly clear we have an very sorry but i have been left with attorney general who is not doing fio very sorry but i have been left with no order in my ear sol hisjob as attorney general who is not doing his job as an independent arbiter of very sorry but i have been left with no order in my ear so i could not hear... i'm really sorry, i could justice but more and more doing the political bidding of the white see your beautiful face but not hear house. we have been talking about your question. i'mjust israel and the programme and i know see your beautiful face but not hear your question. i'm just going to say... when she looks around the at you are on the appropriations committee yesterday grilling the these 27, i wonder how much eye secretary of state mike pompeo. contact there's going to be with several times she asked him about emanuel macron because he wants a this pledge that benjamin netanyahu harder bargain. we are going to had made before the election about annexing large parts of the west bank and you ask the secretary of speak to the irish european minister state what he thought about that and and a second, but he has been more whether the administration had a conciliatory than any french side, policy on annexation of the west presumably they‘ re going bank, where you satisfied with the conciliatory than any french side, presumably they're going to be the site urgings and caution and a nswe rs you bank, where you satisfied with the answers you got? absolutely not. patience? i would put caution in

there because just as a theresa may it's astounding that the secretary may come to speak to eu leaders, she of state could not tell us whether knows that the thing that will be publicised in the press are actually a message to her audience back home. or not us policy continues to oppose whether it is her party or her the unilateral annexation of any or cabinet or the voters in the united all of the west bank by israel. that kingdom. it is the same with all of these readers here too. they have has been a long—standing us policy, their domestic audience as well. to not support any kind of emanuel macron has been delighted to annexation. and for the effect play bad cop in this process. he secretary of state to not be able to a nswer secretary of state to not be able to answer that question one way or does not want... he wants to wear another is really astounding. it's a his hat, saying defender of europe. very sad statement and reflection on he is not doing well domestically so he wants to be seen to be living up the state of us foreign policy. you to his european credentials. he have had a president of the united wants to show that leaving this states who has gone out of his way european union union is tough, it is to put his thumb on the scale in the not good for you. and what about the elections in favour of prime minister netanyahu and as far as i border between northern ireland and can tell, the trump administration's ireland? but will it mean for the foreign policy is simply to follow peace process, the eu wants to make sure that it's single market is whatever prime minister netanyahu wa nts to protected along that border in case whatever prime minister netanyahu wants to do. that's clearly the patent that we see. rather than a ofa protected along that border in case of a no—deal brexit. it makes sense for the taoiseach to be seen to be foreign policy that supports the

doing anything to do with the uk interests of the people of israel space so doing anything to do with the uk space so that this can be an orderly brexit. sorry that we left with an and the united states and what prime earpiece. i have an earpiece, but minister netanyahu is doing is just not in any sound. thank you. undermining any possibility, even the fragile remaining possibility of a two state solution and focusing on a two state solution and focusing on still disclosure it was only about a a two state solution and focusing on a two state solution has also been long time us policy. chris van minute before we got on here that christian could hear me. hopefully we will take those issues. hollen democratic senator from maryland, thank you very much for speaking before this joining the programme. interesting evening's summit — the eu's chief brexit negotiator michel barnier said that any extension would be aimed at helping there what was said about israel, because we know that the role of the uk to pass the withdrawal agreement. the prime minister theresa may has requested a further extension of the president trump and his administration has been a big part article 50. in the israeli election so we know one point that is important is the extension has to be useful mr netanyahu in the israeli election so we know mr neta nyahu has and serve a purpose. in the israeli election so we know mr netanyahu has invoked mr trump and he will be watching what mike pompeo has been saying on capitol and our common purpose is to get hill. the president said today his the ratification of the withdrawal agreement. election strengthens the case for a peace process when there is no policy in the administration for that two state solution. back to brexit... in the past half an hour, i'm joined by the irish european

theresa may has left the room where she's been making her case minister helen mcentee. before european leaders. just had some lines from reuters, eu on your twitter feed you are officials say that after theresa tweeting out a picture of the may's speech to eu leaders to senses dortmund that was assigned 2i the prime minister is open to a tweeting out a picture of the dortmund that was assigned 21 years ago today, the good friday longer extension as long as it can agreement. i guess the irish side does not want anything that will put be terminated early and it goes on to say that her speech to eu leaders that at risk. 21 years may seem like was, quote, more solid than usual, a long time, but in what we have though not many specifics. you still to achieve it is not a very wonder how that will go down. long period of time. we are focusing and of course it's not the first on moving forward and not taking a time that the prime minister has step back and a no deal scenario come to a european capital to argue her case in puts us in that category and puts us the last two years. let's have a quick recap. at risk and put the good friday people voted to leave the eu and, agreement at risk. what has come out at the end of march 2019, we will leave the european union. i am ambitious and positive for britain's future and for these negotiations, of that dortmund... what has been but i know we still achieved, north—east to south and have some way to go. i very much welcome the prospect we st achieved, north—east to south and west in the past 21 years. it is to of moving ahead to the next phase protect that. but like the taoiseach to talk about trade and security and to discuss a positive has been more conciliatory in the and ambitious future relationship. way he has spoke. he has been to in any negotiation, you do not get paris and urged the patients. with everything you want. you need to identify what your vital

interests are and stick to them, the venture... but be prepared to compromise in other areas in order to achieve a result. i think the british we have always been clear that we people understand that. wa nt we have always been clear that we want an agreement. and macron and mps were clear that legal changes were needed to the backstop. today we have secured legal changes. everyone else wants the same. it is not good for the whole eu. no deal. now is the time to come together to back this improved brexit deal. france and other member states, including ireland, want a clear as i said yesterday, pathway, to see a clear pathway. we this delay is a matter of personal regret to me, do not want further extensions without an idea of where we are but a short extension would give going andl without an idea of where we are going and i were going to get to an parliament the time to make a final end point. we want to be to the end choice that delivers on the result point where we have an agreement of the referendum. thatis point where we have an agreement that is a great notjust by the 27, one of the things i'm curious but by the uk. i lease outside about is how the rest of the world is seeing tonight's summit. i was surprised by how much labour sufficient? i think that is progress. people may have have seen of a response i got to a tweet i posted yesterday saying how that summer humiliating the international coverage of this summit has been for the uk — particularly the language used in the german and french press, seen at that centre. what is which described a ‘begging tour‘, important now is the deliberations and how the uk will exist in that will take place. i think an ‘airlock‘ during any extension. everyone will listen very carefully

to what she had to say and there to discuss this i'm joined will of course be different views as now by amanda sloat, to whether it should be long, short a former us state department official who is now or conditions attached. what is at the brookings institution. important is how we get there and what we are trying to achieve and thatis what we are trying to achieve and that is an agreement to avoid a no good to see you in person. after deal and, long, short, that is an agreement to avoid a no dealand, long, short, that's not really the main focus for us. where watching from afar it's fun to see the magic happen. what do you make that end point to be some form of customs union, something that the about the general reaction of the other 27 to the situation?” about the general reaction of the other 27 to the situation? i have taoiseach has been speaking about, beenin other 27 to the situation? i have been in brussels for the last couple but also the french government... if of days and what has been striking the uk is in a customs union, we've is how sick and tired everybody is of the process. i think there is a not had any say in the rules at all, lot of sympathy for the uk and the it is some have our uncharted all of situation but there is a growing frustration about the lack of agreement in london and also the said that we would not know what the said that we would not know what the uk would have as part of the increasing concern about the european parliament elections and a customs union and there seems to be real desire to start looking to the a difference of opinion there with the eu members themselves? what i future and concerned about what continued confusion in london is would say to that is get to that going to mean for that process. the point first. if the uk were you to german chancellor said today the change the red lines, and you have extension needs to be as short as to remember that so much of the negotiations that had taken place possible but long enough to restore have been on the basis that the uk some calm. there are a lot of people

are living the single market and the down there saying today that brexit customs union, that were to come back on the table and the prime fatigue is setting in and when you ministerandjeremy back on the table and the prime minister and jeremy corbyn were to reach an agreement on that, then we have got tired politicians, frustration and impatience, you can would need to come together and make wrong decisions. that is discuss that and what that means for the political declaration and the possible so i think everyone is also future relationship. of course, the trying to take a deep breath. i uk when they leave, if they live, as think they want it to be short enough so that this doesn't drag on pa rt of uk when they leave, if they live, as part of a customs union, they will forever but long enough to get the not be around the table in the same time to the uk to do what is way that they are now. but i think what we would like and what the necessary. it striking that you have taoiseach was reflecting on his the european parliament really ended comments is that they would have some sort of a say. obviously they last week of brussels and strasbourg would be a major part of the customs next week, people are physically packing up their boxes and attention union, a large country with the size and population of the uk, it would is turning up to what is next and be important that they had some sort u na nswered is turning up to what is next and unanswered questions about what the ofa be important that they had some sort of a say. again this is all uk position will be in the eu is speculation. we have not got to that making it complicated for people to point yet. there are negotiations start planning ahead and so that is ongoing in the uk and... between any fuelling some of the frustration about the way this process is pair ministerandjeremy dragging on. your good friend is in ongoing in the uk and... between any pair minister and jeremy corbyn. and if that was the... we look that camera stop given all of that favourably on that. thank you very and how frustrated people and exhausted by the whole process in much indeed. brussels, do think eu officials are earlier today, theresa may held prime minister's questions contemplating this delay to brexit

with the opposition labour leaderjeremy corbyn in the house of commons. ina hope contemplating this delay to brexit in a hope against hope that they it follows five days of talks could be some kind of reversal that between the government and labour officials, gives credence to a second aimed at breaking the brexit impasse. referendum or a peoples vote our chief political correspondent whatever it is, or are they giving this delay if they give it, thinking vicki young is in westminster. it seems we have a disconnect on there is the chance of some kind of viewing these tops, because here they are the eu 27 saying it could plan that comes out of parliament thatis plan that comes out of parliament that is coherent that parliament can sign onto? i think opinion is constitute a plan to give them some reason to grant a delay, but then everything we hear from reason to grant a delay, but then everything we hearfrom london and divided on those two things. that is westminster suggest that the talks probably playing into how some of have certainly not produce anything these ministers are approaching concrete yet. and are being viewed with the settlement of caution? both tonight's discussion. i think there was a sense by some that there was a sides say they are engaging in them in good faith and that there has hope that the uk would remain in the been progress and they do want to european union and an extended delay would give time for additional compromise, but healing from thought but the other thing that has labour's spokesman today, the been quite striking and talking to people here in brussels last couple spokesman for jeremy corbyn, of days is that there are increasing labour's spokesman today, the spokesman forjeremy corbyn, they say there has been no movement from questions about how even additional the government. that is pretty and time will get the uk out of the popular in the conservative party. current impasse. i think real notjust those who popular in the conservative party. questions about how mary and corbyn not just those who are pro—brexit, who mean that we do not have any say over trade policy, but it is also will reach agreement or an indicative or process will lead not that popular among stellar wing somewhere and even if you had a

general election, whether or not a of the party because they say we divided country will be able to come might as well stay in the eu. this to some sort of resolution on a way forward. we will bring in chris is the thing about a longer extension, it means that everyone else thinks that their option is morris the reality check correspondent who is walking the back on the table. particularly that floor and getting a feel for what is going on. we have already got some option of another referendum. you can really see that those conclusions that tend to leak out campaigning for that feel that longer, to get that message through through the loop because of the evening and they have already added a couple paragraphs. particular to people, and the fact that parliament is just a focus on the road the uk would play to people, and the fact that parliament isjust a clear means that may be a referendum is the only during the long extension when it comes to the budget and personnel way through. that is the danger for over the road at the eu commission. theresa may. she sees it as a shot they don't want the eu getting anyway. the difficulty is the longer extension, to get out before the extension allows time for a bit of european elections, but other people breathing space but there are have a different view of that.|j already sick and tired of the fact think have a different view of that.” think the last wendy for hours have they have spent so much time here, been they have spent so much time here, the 27 countries, time and attention dealing essentially with the she said she did not want the bag is a delay to be any shorter... it internal machinations of a member state that wants to leave. there is seems that she will accept whatever a division of opinion within the 27 they throw at her tonight. yes, she but there are certainly countries that are saying very strongly we will frame at that that is the end cannot afford to be held hostage to date, but we can get out before that. she will talk about still

trying to get some kind of deal the whims of one member state. they through and she will hope that the don't trust the political system in london at the moment. there are idea of fighting those european elections three years after the certainly voices in the room saying, referendum to leave will mean that many labour and the conservatives why should the uk have voting rights both look at that and think now, if it is about to leave anyway? why thatis both look at that and think now, that is not what we want. we have should the uk have a member of the u european commission. we want to move other people talking about who is going to succeed her and that is a on with this and we don't want to be saddled with these problems. but others say hang on a minute, and it problem for her. we have people saying that she needs to set a date, was in donald tusk was like a letter saying that she needs to set a date, say that she is going to go at the to the 27 coming here today, if you end of me and then, who knows what are still a will happen then, because a new to the 27 coming here today, if you are stilla member to the 27 coming here today, if you are still a member state who have person comes in, presumably all the obligations of membership but also all the rights of brexiteer and everything could membership and as long as you are a change. she will come back here membership and as long as you are a member state and membership and as long as you are a memberstate andl membership and as long as you are a member state and i have spoken to diplomats today who stress this point, you do have the right to vote tomorrow, presumably update mps, and there will be the setting binder who and the right to have your site, so think that she will not be here for it is getting that balance between a very long. thank you very much country that might prove to be indeed. theresa may wants a legal brexit date ofjune 30th, obstructive, particularly if there before the summer, in part was a new prime minister who was because it would mean avoiding the uk fully participating potentially looking for a harder former brexit and was inclined to in the next round of eu elections.

follow the path theresa may has said but the eu has made it clear she will follow of being a that while it is still a legal cooperative member as long as we are member of the bloc, the uk will be in the european union, but balancing legally forced to take part. that between saying if you're in the all candidates for the european eu you are still in the eu and you parliamentary election will have to be registered by april 25th. have everything that comes with that's so all the paperwork can be in order ahead that. we have... all, we seem to of the elections, which will take place over four days at the end of may. the newly elected meps will then sit in parliament onjuly 2nd. have lost chris and amanda and theresa may's preferred new departure date ofjune 30th would — in theory — mean that uk everybody all seem to have meps would never sit disappeared on us into the brexit in the new parliament. vortex in the brussels summit. we as he was arriving at the summit the belgian prime hope they have not disappeared into minister charles michel said the bowels of the building and that it was important that, in the case of a longer extension, they come back into the programme. the uk shouldn't be able when we do we will bring you more to interfere with the internal functioning of the eu. because i want to know what chris what is important for us is certainly the certitude thought about what we can do about that we need that in case the delay they are proposing. of an extension we will have the guarantee for a correct this is beyond 100 days. still to come... and permanent working of the eu. a space breakthrough as astronomers capture the first ever image of a black hole, it's very important for us because in the next weeks we will have a decision located in a distant galaxy. about the next budget for the european union, for example, and we will also have the decision about the composition of the new eu a new report suggests children dealing with mental health problems

commission and we want to be sure in england face a postcode lottery when it comes that it will be possible to getting proper help. the study says spending on services to guarantee the correct for children with anxiety or depression has fallen by a third functioning of the eu. in some parts of england. the bbc‘s sophie hutchinson has more on this story. a mindfulness lesson for these children, to help with the pressures of life. but for those suffering i'm trying to grab all these good from low—level depression or anxiety, school counsellors and drop—in centres people pay from behind the camera as are thought to be helpful. we go along. today, however, a report i'm joined by the belgian by the children's commissioner has warned that access to that mep phillippe lambert help is patchy. on the eu parliament's brexit the report shows large regional steering group. last time we met he were pretty variations in the amount spent scathing about the prime minister's performance. do you have any by local authorities on low—level thoughts and have any thoughts on mental health support. how it went tonight? not yet. the the most is almost £18 per child in london. but compare that to around £7 in the south—east, and the lowest is around just £5 extension up to the 30th ofjune it in the east of england. isa extension up to the 30th ofjune it is a bit of an order date because it that means that children and parents spans of european elections and the can't rely on what is there. european —— the united kingdom would so there is funding available centrally, but it is being left be forced to hold the elections. to local authorities and to local that seems pointless if your people health ccgs, to decide

how much is spent. i want much, much more scrutiny nationally. are living and they are unlikely to ever set. —— if they got leaving and but while some parts of the country are spending a lot less, the report did find overall spending they are unlikely to ever set. i do on services, like counsellors, had risen by 17%. not see that the talks with labour the aim of low—level support is to prevent mental illness from escalating and the need will produce anything concrete, or for hospital admissions. at least when you listen to the it is clearly much better to support a young person heads of state of the 27, they do when problems first emerge, not seem to believe very much... she rather than waiting for a long time. is setting a due process, as in she? i mean, we hear about children whose problems have got worse she has said that she is going to and they have dropped out of school, hold these talks with labour and if and that means one of their parents she does not have anything might have to leave work cultivation she will put it all to a and look after them. it can have devastating effects free vote to the house of commons on the whole family. and whatever there is a majority for the government insists it is focusing on early help, they will abide by the position? yes particularly in schools, and that its plans will allow 70,000 more children a year to have access to specialist mental health care it isa they will abide by the position? yes it is a four process, and you need in the next few years. time to carry that out, i understand. but given her past sophie hutchinson, bbc news. record, the confidence that we have in brussels about the ability for that process to unfold in the next few weeks is very small indeed. so this is why i get donald tusk has

had this idea of having a much longer extension because maybe when there is significantly more time thena brussels is back and christine is there is significantly more time then a new development could happen. back and we are all systems go. —— you say that the eu 27, and you christian. it has been 100 days sense get for yourself, do not think since jair bolsonaro became these talks with labour going to president of brazil. provide some concrete plan. what do the far right politician — who is sometimes dubbed they think would happen over the the trump of the tropics — campaigned to radically change course of a longer extension that latin america's biggest democracy, by stamping out corruption, cutting crime and overhauling has not happened so far in two years the sluggish economy. he's pledged to stamp out in the uk that would lead to some corruption, cut crime and overhaul the sluggish economy. kind of agreement? the first thing so how is he faring? our south america correspondent thatis kind of agreement? the first thing that is going to happen are the european elections and, by the way, katy watson has been taking a look. that will be a way to take the he promised to shake up politics. temperature of the country. because, of course european elections will be fought on the questions of brexit the gun loving former army officer accused versus remaining in the european of being sexist, union and there you will be able to racist and a homophobe. gauge where the public opinion but for millions of brazilians stands a bit. i think that might, in fed up with old corrupt politics, bolsonaro turn, give way to possibly new was the only man for the job. elections or... within the tory it's easy to find his fans here at latin america's largest party, we do not know —— or power security event.

a campaign promise to tackle shifts within the tory party, we do violence was music to this not know. looking at the track industry's years, but even so, re cord not know. looking at the track record of theresa may, her inability criticism is growing. one of the first things to build a strong, jollity within bolsonaro did when he westminster for one option, that became president was easing the regulations around keeping guns at home. track record remains and they're the trust in her is very small indeed here in brussels. thank you very of course, that pleased his voters, much for your thoughts. we will see but since then he has really what comes out of those discussions struggled to keep up the momentum this evening. theresa may spoke to of delivering the change that he saw promised. natasha and her husband victor them for a pensioner, then they had are members of a gun club. them for a pensioner, then they had the strange say where she leaves the translation: i am disappointed, especially when it comes to security. room and they —— theresa may spoke his whole campaign was focused on helping to them for over an hour then they brazilians, but that's not happened. i voted for him for change, have dinner and make this decision but it's been a weak start. and they will come out and do a bolsonaro's first 100 days have press c0 nfe re nce and they will come out and do a press conference about the recession. after that she will get been beset by problems. the final say, she will speak to the criticised for wanting to celebrate the military dictatorship, financial scandals british say don't like press about it. this is supposed to be that the involving his son. uk taking back control, but the fate there have been some foreign visits of the uk is now tonight in the too, but for many, little hands of 27 and one member could obvious leadership.

veto the plan for an extension. that everybody wants brazil to change as a society, but the person who is the irony is lost on no one tonight in commander—in—chief is... he doesn't... he has never delivered any change the uk or the european union. let's in his life and he hasn't shown to be capable of delivering talk about things in america. this type of change. president trump says election results in israel increase cousins gabrielle and alessandra can't agree the chances of a peace plan on bolsonaro. for the region region. he also congratulated mr netanyahu after results put the prime minister in the best position of forming they both voted for him, but gabrielle said a new government and so winning he would not do it again. a record fifth term in office. he's is immature, he thinks. earlier today, his main opposition candidate, benny gantz conceded he had lost — alessandra though, is a super fan. so now mr netanyahu has the task of forming a coalition with right wing and religious factions. the campaign was largely translation: bolsonaro represents seen as a referendum on the prime minister, who faces corruption something different. charges — which he denies. our chief international correspondent lyse doucet leaders are always is injerusalem for us. from the same parties. he was inspired by trump in the united states. he went against everything and still won. criticism of bolsonaro is misplaced, says his boss. i guess we now have the results. mr he is trying to push through much—needed gantz has now conceded and it is now economic reforms, even if his way up gantz has now conceded and it is now up to mr netanyahu to form this of doing politics is novel. coalition and that is presumably we are living in a different world. what is going to happen and possibly a shift towards the right? shifting i mean, we cannot apply the same inner knowledge and the same approach and behaviour

towards the right in one election after another and that election has that we used to have five years ago that we have today. due to the social media. confirmed that shift. even though benny gantz and benjamin netanyahu you can talk through your cell phone with 100% of the population. we re technology has changed, benny gantz and benjamin netanyahu the relationship between people and were extraordinarily tied, both 97%, both have a 35 seats and their the statehood has changed respective parties, but its villa is and politics is one of them. not that it will stop all about coalition building and mr the arguing between critics who think he's an embarrassment and supporters who say netanyahu all about coalition building and mr neta nyahu clearly stand all about coalition building and mr netanyahu clearly stand a better he needs more time. chance given the numbers of right brazil's political future and religious parties who are is harder to guess. already making it clear that they katy watson, bbc news in sao paolo. willjoin mr already making it clear that they will join mr netanyahu's already making it clear that they willjoin mr netanyahu's new government. what does that mean for those charges of corruption against one to watch, before we were rudely mr netanyahu? that is a big question. it is one of the other big interrupted we were talking from amanda sloat and chris morris who have patiently and standing by. we takeaways from the selection, the will give it another kick. some sort fa ct takeaways from the selection, the fact that he is expected to be of word out of the 27 about what indicted on three major charges of corruption, breach of trust, fraud, they heard from theresa may, they bribery... it didn't seem to have don't want —— they still want mattered as much to the many specifics and they don't feel the israelis who voted for benjamin

process adapters are not. it is at least a process and it is moving on netanyahu. israelis who voted for benjamin neta nyahu. the attorney israelis who voted for benjamin netanyahu. the attorney general has made it clear that he wants to press from where she was in the past. she has recognised her withdrawal ahead and mr netanyahu could become agreement will not get renegotiated the first israeli prime minister in history to be indicted while in and it will not get past as it is. she is open to discussions on the office. there is no law here that political declaration and now is says you cannot indict a sitting beginning a genuine cross—party set of talks with jeremy corbyn but the prime minister. but i think mr netanyahu is hoping that either some problem is neither of them seem particularly flexible on their kind of agreement, a political negotiations and even if they are able to reach agreement among agreement which allows him to remain themselves it's unclear if they can in office, even while those... that both carried the political parties to get the party through parliament court process develops or, that in fa ct stop what you can understand the 27 court process develops or, that in fact there is a change in legislation. it might be hard for saying where is this going but she him to achieve that, which gives him has been trying to spell it out to immunity while he is serving. the them that it is quite rare in political terms in the uk to have cross— party political terms in the uk to have cross—party negotiations at. political terms in the uk to have cross—party negotiations atm secretary of state was asked any political terms in the uk to have cross-party negotiations at. it is rare but the problem with any committee meeting in congress compromise in the middle means both whether the administration still parties will alienate a key section believes a two state solution, and of their party. it begs the question gemma netanyahu is someone who has not talked about the two state why didn't we do this two years ago? why didn't we seek common ground on solution for years —— benjamin netanyahu this incredibly divisive issue some solution for years —— benjamin neta nyahu someone has solution for years —— benjamin netanyahu someone has not taught by two state solution for years. where time ago? it's been done not even at does that leave this two state

the 11th hour but passed the 11th solution? trump said that it gives hour and that is one of the things of eu countries have a problem with. their patience with the way brexit much chance of a success for the has been handled in london has been peace plan... it will make it more running short for some time. here difficult in those first 48 hours of they are now past the original panic when mr netanyahu was worried, deadline almost at the first he warned the electorate that the extended deadline still not really left wing would come back to power, quite sure where all this is going. that he made promises to the soi quite sure where all this is going. so i think you can understand why right—wing and religious parties, some of them are saying enough including an indication that he already, but others are saying we would annex parts of the west bank can't give up on this because make no mistake, if it were to become a which the palestinians would expect would be part of their future state. no—deal brexit, that would be a it was hard to make these before the massive failure of statecraft for selection, it will be harder still the whole european union, notjust after. thank you very much. the whole european union, notjust the uk. amanda, what can the eu do now to make sure that there is not being an a—lister affords you many a privilege. from a ticket to the oscars either a disruption to the process to vip treatment in just of the workings of the eu by the uk about every restaurant, if it says entering the still life hotel or flight. or there is a change of leadership and, when you talk , people listen. in the uk which rips up the agreement and says we are going to do something different?” agreement and says we are going to do something different? i think of

the first one, certainly there is increasing concern here in brussels yeah, that is is, unless you're brad pitt about not having disruption to the attending a public meeting about improvements to an la museum. the actor was cut off european union process going forward. there's a lot of focus on by chairwoman janice hahn for going over his allotted time. the new seven—year budget that needs to be negotiated, focus on the watch this. i would just like to talk a little bit about peter zumthor. selection of the president of the i do believe he's one of the great architects of our time. european commission, commissioners and a desire to ensure that the uk i seem my time's expired... thank you. is participating in good faith. you i know, it gives me great pain to say, wrap can ensure the uk holds it up, mr pitt. it kills me to say that. parliamentary elections which the but wrap it up. legislative process has been going we actors suffer from verbosity. forward for that in the uk but it's i understand the decision you make is going to more ambiguous in terms of how you take a leap of faith. ensure the uk is acting in good faith. you don't have control over thank you. what those members of parliament do i ask you to take the leap of faith in michael's once they take their seats and i vision for the collection and peter zumthor's think it will be somewhat difficult vision for the future and to actually identify and enforce how we move through this museum and benchmarks to ensure that that is i think is going to be the case. amanda, chris, thank you a gem for everyone... i'm gone. thank you, thank you. thank you. for bearing with us. good to see you both and get your input on what is happening. we will be talking about which part of time's up did he not all the reaction coming out this evening and it could be a light one. understand? no one on this programme scientists have today revealed the first ever

all ever speaks longer than they picture of a black hole — it's a historic moment and has been wa nt all ever speaks longer than they described as a breakthrough. want to? her director as saying that here it is — you can see this is why we are having this item the black hole in the centre, surrounded by a halo of bright gas. on the programme, because he recognises this. i don't think you astronomers are used to dealing in massive numbers when uncovering have to worry question if you're put the mysteries of space, but scientists have described this hole as a ‘monster‘ — its three million times the size in the same... i'm been told to wrap of the earth and measures as well. this is beyond 100 days 40 billion kilometres. from the bbc. it's 500 million trillion kilometres away — in a distant galaxy called m—87. coming up i was just i wasjust thinking i was just thinking today when i was for viewers on the bbc news channel watching this that i had a horizon and bbc world news — we'll be speaking to one append, the point of no return on of the senators who's been questioning attorney brexit a few minutes ago! a special general william barr today. and he's sometimes dubbed the trump of the tropics — jair bolsonaro has been president programme on ten amendments of the third reading of the bill to extend of brazilfor100 days — article 50. at that point all life we look at how he's faring. is sucked out of you very much like a black hole. i will be here through that's still to come. the evening with more exit. we have
