this is the job news coming to you live from berlin showdown in speed the counted on leader defines the deadline to abandon plans for independence madrid now says if he starts taking back control of the breakaway region on saturday also coming up britain's gregg's the talks are not going to resolve b.

is trying to soften her approach but so far the e.u. is unimpressed is there any way out of the deadlock. and the bodies involved in germany's coalition talks see their first meeting has been positive but they warn it's going to take a long time to nail down an agreement. i don't welcome i'm under thought she. the crisis in gaza lonia is escalating spin is preparing to suspend the region's autonomy after the cotton on media threatened to declare independence the central government in madrid said going to lumia charles bridgeable had ignored a deadline to redraw his plans to break away and must now face the consequences. cut along president was asked to state clearly and precisely if any authority has

declared the independence of the autonomy state of catalonia without a clear and precise answer to this question we the government understand that the petition and it's not been answered. if you sign therefore the government will continue with the processing of article one hundred fifty five of the constitution with the goal to restore the law in catalonia know if you will respond. and from madrid to have with me correspondent a martin around this law to know how significant is it that madrid has decided to invoke ontic of one fifty five it seems it's never been invoked in the country before. now indeed it hasn't says country return return to constitutional democracy . yet so this is uncharted territory nobody knows exactly how it will work in practice or even if it is workable forcible because. some opposition.

to there you know there isn't. street protest so it's a very sick very so don't know what happens next the cabinet meeting is said to be held at this weekend on saturday. that's correct it's being reshaped will pretty unusual projects because prime minister maliki under a hole in what we're turning to. and this is expected speech on the agenda or koreans are expected to agree to fall into request of the senate but the next person procedural. vote article one hundred thirty five even member that does take several days i mean presumably they will repeat the question. first minister considered powers who just want to clarify whether he did in fact declare independence in his address to the local parliament would. give him a chance to explain himself the other thing he could conceivably do. is appeal to

the same constitutional court was declared the referendum. so a restart of. this could still take or fifteen days and again there is conceivable . bargain for people to actually reach some sort of agreement before going ahead where many are described as a nuclear option right and might you know what's in madrid thank you they might play a perspective on that story lets them get the perspective from boston and i spoke just a short want to go to our correspondent bob graham is it and as to how this confrontation had suddenly taken such a serious turn. this country became so heated and so so intractable more or less throughout the last four weeks i mean there have been tensions for months on end between madrid and barcelona the couple on saying you know they're not cheering us they're not talking to us you know we're not being respected and so

finally colors could put on called this illegal referendum on october first then we saw the scene spanish police stepping in and beating up voters and since then things have become more and more difficult both sides have now reached a position where they can't really step down where there seems to be no reasonable way out no new gave negotiated solution for this problem so we don't really know what will happen once one fifty five is triggered but let's hear what a seer reticule e possible. oh triggering article one hundred fifty five allows spain's central government to take over any of the country's seventeen autonomous regions if they break the law which declaring independence is deemed to be this is never been used in modern spanish history so what does that mean in practice it would allow madrid to start regional office holders dissolve the regional parliament. and

assume control of all regional authorities. new elections would be held in catalonia until then madrid could fill key interim positions among these the heads of the catalan police the current police chief was charged with sedition for allegedly failing to stop the toper first independence referendum this move would be vital should madrid mobilize police forces of people take to the streets there given the police violence at the referendum madrid may be reluctant to use force again if madrid invokes the article it won't come into effect straight away it needs parliamentary approval which the spanish prime minister mariano rajoy needs an absolute majority for that and he only has a slim one for catalonia a lot still hangs in the balance. so i get the sense of both sides are playing a game of political brinkmanship and we still have a few days before talks on this article one fifty five start at the weekend is

there any chance of any back room negotiations to avoid what is certainly going to be a crisis for the country. it seems that both sides have reached the point of no return madrid has early on started threatening with the nuclear option which is the want to go one fine five and they have sort of got to keep their word in order not to lose face and the government here in comes along is totally boxed in and they are sort of being pushed by their own supporters to go for independence to go forwards and on the other hand they have a large part of this population who says we don't want this at all they should basically be and that would be the sensible option call for elections however they it get and today declined that and say no we're going to stay and see this through so we see two hard headed sides here they are not really acting politically but they are rather acting like in

a legal manner in madrid and in an ideologically driven manner here in barcelona and the emotions will be heating up when we see demonstrations starting from tomorrow and particularly on saturday so what you're saying is basically it's too late for negotiations and you say they are demonstrations expected how is this playing out this issue on the streets of boston or up people are very angry about what's happening. it depends on who you talk to amrita of course because the country is deeply divided and this division runs right through families from friendships through couples and people really have heated discussions about you know no we don't want this we want to stay with spain we are really all spaniards and others say you know we have nothing to do with them we all catalans and so the country met might be split just right down the middle there's no telling at the moment where the my admit we were the majority is elections would be a sensible move but if that is not going to happen we will have some really sort of

harsh confrontations through the next days and probably even weeks because a civic platform has already called for people to come out onto the streets and to show their discontent and we can expect them that those calls will be answered barbara visit on in a very rainy day in barcelona thank you very much for that. ok turning out to brussels where the e.u. is struggling with drugs that negotiations britain's to reason has promised to make it as easy as possible for citizens living in the u.k. off to brag said that's one of those issues holding up progress in talks with brussels on the u.k.'s exit from the e.u. did. reports on how much progress the talks have made so far but after. this we're going to respect the european union so this is over you know five rounds of talks. multiple mishap. and almost an ending

stream of metaphors let's put a tiger in the towel and stop letting the grass grow under our feet the ball is entirely in the u.k. court as we look forward to the next stage the ball is in their court breaks in negotiations are well underway and things are getting theory in your court. action if you. will this clearly isn't a game but if it were today she'd been much point for team breck sit here in brussels a real moment of triumph when the e.u. said enough have been agreed upon for talks to move on to the next phase to really get into the nitty gritty of the u.k.'s future relationship with the e.u. and on trade. the e.u. had some conditions. is demanded sufficient progress on three key issues the rights of u.k. and e.u.

citizens prosperous it how the border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland will function and most contentious of all how much money the u.k. owns so far and a major breakthroughs on any of the above meaning progression to the next phase is now unlikely before december but even on that the u.k. and the e.u. on opposite ends of the court. were ready and well prepared to stop those discussions. i'm not in a position at this stage to propose to the european council that it should open discussions on the future relationship they discuss. that's despite monday's last minute charm offensive from two reason may in brussels may have looked friendly bots the pressure is clearly mounting the time is running out the clock ticking very fast like a game of tennis these lookers she asians are on a deadline u.k. shuttle to leave the e.u. in march twenty nine thousand. let me now bring you up to speed with some other
