properties as the steady stream of my car broke lanes about the fate of distant saudi journalist john walker shocked or leaked to the press u.s. president donald trump says he expects to learn the truth by the end of the week. i'm sorry so much going to have you with us british prime minister theresa may is facing intense criticism at home that's after admitting that she's considering a european union proposal that would keep britain bound to the block's rules for several months longer than originally planned after a summit of e.u. leaders in brussels failed to make enough progress and reaching a divorce agreement the e.u. has now suggested more time for striking a trade deal that ensures a frictionless border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland with threats at the border between northern ireland and the republic is set to become the u.k.'s only land border the border within the e.u. . both sides want to avoid
3:02 pm
a physical border which many fear could reignite social tensions in northern ireland a key part of negotiations is a so-called backstop that's a guarantee the border will stay open should the u.k. leave the e.u. without a deal they you wants to keep northern ireland in the customs union and the common market britain's theresa may says that is not acceptable she spoke to reporters at the summit in brussels earlier on with your agreement there are issues remaining around the back story just to remind everybody the back story is what would become in place to ensure that there would be no hard border between north and if the future relationship is not in place by the end of the mentation period now the original proposal from the e.u. was one that we could not accept in the k. it would have created a customs border down the irish sea earlier in the year we put forward a proposal is to have to deal with this issue further idea that has emerged and it is an idea at this stage is to create an option to extend the implementation period
3:03 pm
for a few matter of months and it would only be for by the end of december twenty twenty let's bring in our reporters covering bracing negotiations for a scared does this in brussels and is in london good to see you both come to you first now theresa may there saying she is open to extending the brakes a transition period by a few months but she doesn't expect to have to do so we all know time is running out how does she expect to break the current deadlock. the hope of course is here for theresa may be that extra time in the negotiations that is something that the e.u. has now put on the table the head of the european parliament for instance has said if that helps we're willing to give extra time in the transition or as it's called in the u.k. the implementation phase that's already the time to find a new deal because and that would be the help that is offered it would make a backstop less likely and. backstop theresa may has particularly problems with her
3:04 pm
she has plenty of problems at home. coming to you now because teresa mayes really feeling the heat over this isn't she at home. yes for sure one prominent black city called this latest proposal frankly ridiculous and to handle critics all piling up the pressure on her like boris johnson like david davis former ministers and they say that she's giving too much ground to the but also this latest proposal some of the remaining aside in their own policies that don't suppose that they say well is this a matter of principle and will really one extra year helps and the logic behind it could be that there is speculation that the remaining in her own party you want to go agreed to the. european free trade agreement and have this off to the transition basically as a backs of and then for that to give the u.k. government and the e.u. more time to come together but clearly
3:05 pm
a lot of criticism especially with this latest plan so big it could she lose her job over this. that's the million dollar question there are many creation events in the next days and weeks to call me for the big very huge for a second referendum a story a big march for a second referendum coming up this we can sue people. to pop some people in the public trying to ask us to reason may to rethink our position and give this question back to the people and basically decide against whether britain really wants to leave the you all not then we've got a crucial varied on the budget do you expect to be propping up may's government in northern irish unionists they say that they might very against the government might not support her budget if this so-called pretrial they see it as a betrayal of northern ireland when's and the father so she is really in a very difficult with. but on the other hand to topple the prime minister in the
3:06 pm
middle of the specs of negotiations who really wants to be responsible for that in the end so it's in everybody's interest to get straight and to get in there graham and the question is whether to raise them they will be able to deliver that and just briefly you know how optimistic are you leaders that we could still see a deal. you twenty seven leaders basically they never wanted this they always regarded. it as a lose lose particularly if it come to a cliff. with with no deal involved so they are keen to get a deal done and there is still hope on the other hand they have made it clear today that they're not willing to risk everything they would not willing to risk the the internal market the success that europe has provided for the twenty eight countries so far they're not willing to give all of that up only to keep the u.k. on board. all right for us in brussels and reporting for us from london

3:12 pm
to the bigger picture turkish investigators apparently believe that mr bush was murdered shortly after he entered the saudi consulate on october second and his body was then taken to the saudi consuls a residence and they also believe that a fifteen member killing team from saudia a saudi arabia was involved in his murder you know you understand that the pro-government newspaper there has published stills of a man that it says is linked to the saudi crown prince mohammed bin fama what more can you tell us about that. well he apparently is one of the the fifteen suspects of this fifteen member killing team from saudi arabia that i have just mentioned now the turkish authorities have leaked security camera footage identifying these fifteen people the new york times is also says says that it has independently confirm that at least nine of these fifteen men are linked to the
