leaders hoping to sign off on drugs during a summit on sunday the clock is ticking. they're not exactly celebrating but e.u. leaders including chief breaks it negotiating the chopin a have at least one reason to be cheerful the draft agreement on the u.k.'s withdrawal from the bloc should be signed off at a summit in brussels on sunday. british prime minister to resume a told parliament in london was a good deal for britain. it honors the bow to the british people by taking back control of our borders and our money while protecting jobs security and the integrity of our precious united kingdom its free movement once and for all we will make our own rules in our own parliament and it means an end to sending vast sums of money to the e.u. opposition leader jeremy corbyn was not convinced the prime minister said nothing
9:07 am
is agreed until everything is agreed it's clear from this document that indeed nothing is agreed that this is the blindfold brecht's that we all fear a leap in the dark german chancellor angela merkel had threatened to boycott sunday's summit unless everything was hammered out in advance she now seems to be on board stuff even though i will do everything possible to get an exit agreement in. a disorderly breck's it would be the worst possible thing not just for the economy but for our future relationship. this week. also on thursday prime minister may had what she said was a friendly chat with the austrian chaunce and this sebastian courts getting the breaks a deal through parliament will be an altogether more hostile process. well for the very latest on breaks it let's get more details from our correspondent in
9:08 am
london just in brussels good morning to you both let's start with you better get this seems to be a critical moment in the break that process it seems to be gaining critical mass how are brits feeling about it right now well i thought i'd bring you some of the papers this morning just to get some sort of feeling of how how people feel and we have the sun here of course the biggest tabloid and it says black friday may it says that it's a good deal for the e.u. they take thirty nine billion pounds from us but it's a bad deal for britain we get diddly squat is what they have to say so they are yesterday and that the daily mail another conservative paper reflects they say now let's get on with it so the reason they know is that there is so much resistance in parliament for how to deal but that also a lot of people really don't want to hear anything more of bricks and this is reflected in this headline let's get on with it and this is what she's hoping will
9:09 am
in the end be the winning sentiment here in the u.k. . talking about that resistance in parliament will theresa may get this deal through the parliament that is the big question. it sat in the the big question and it hasn't gotten any easier of late with this debate that we saw yesterday here and column and we saw so much resistance from all sides from these people who fought to stay in the many of the not happy because they did of course must pull short of the benefits that the u.k. as now with your membership but for those who want to cut loose that ties they really want to do it more completely and i was talking off a trap that britain would be tied to the u. e.u. indefinitely in the customs union over the status of northern ireland and there was
9:10 am
really a lot of anger in bricks and they demanded to resign made to go back and just changed this agreement of course this is nothing that brussels once and today well let's go over to brussels where our correspondent your mother is standing by day or there's been a last minute intervention from spain over gibraltar after speaking to theresa may on thursday just the spanish prime minister a tweeted this is our positions are remain for a way my government will always defend the interests of spain if there are no changes we will veto it that's a tweet from the spending prime minister so why is spain coming out with this now and does this jeopardize breaks. if you want last minute concessions in a negotiation on the maximum pressure the timing is perfect but to be fair one has to say spain made all the way through these negotiations over those hundreds of
9:11 am
days we've been talking with the u.k. from the e.u. side it clear that they want to post brakes a veto on and in that evolves part of the paper the end of this huge hundreds of pages there was a clause that guaranteed spain that they would have opposed breaks it veto but that's cause has disappeared in the final stages of the brics negotiations now spain wants it back in the big question can they really jeopardize the summit can they block and can they veto this entire process yes a no no because it will not be a unanimous vote it's a majority decision but it's the no is it's unlikely that the e.u. will want to risk its chop a stool in the negotiation box and that was always unity and they will not risk it so this is this looks right like really rocky negotiations to come there ok
9:12 am
briefly tell us what happens next in this process. well currently the member states are looking at this the political the declaration of the so-called chap was preparing the summit on sunday and big questions is on fishery as well where france and the netherlands have vested interests so there are number of sticking points left but overall the e.u. is very keen to get an orderly breck's it and to have the summit on sunday york thank you very much for bringing us up to date just there in brussels and of course big mass in london good to see you buddy. now to small the stories making headlines around the world today crowds in new york city braved freezing temperatures for front row seats at the macy's thanksgiving day parade the annual tradition features a broad array of talents everything from high school bands to broadway stars but

9:19 am
almost closed for. the warning comes from a report issued every year by the un's world meteorological organization but this year the scientists say the message is more urgent than ever before. the report indicates carbon dioxide levels reached four hundred five parts per million last year a level last seen three to five million years ago. and at that time the reconstruction tells us that they ever each mean surface temperature was two or three degrees higher than now and they see a level worse ten to ten to twenty metres higher the annual report gauges the concentration of greenhouse gases as opposed to the amount that's released scientists measure what's left in the air after some of the harmful gases have been absorbed by nature the report says the warming impact of those gases is increasing but despite the alarming darter scientists remain optimistic so i believe that this
9:20 am
new knowledge we have with all the information we operate in because the community is behind us science and science policy and but i would go to we will be able to make it but they stress that change must come quickly we need to act now our will need to take actions to decrease the groff rates many scientists are now looking to the un climate talks in poland next month in the hope of finally finding effective ways to end the fossil fuel air. christoph retailers are gearing up for what they see at least as the most important time of the year that's right tara talk about bargains and bargains does what you need to offer if you want people to spend there and to submit a christmas bonus a fifty five inch t.v. for set for example for under four dollars mart speakers for just twenty five black friday is associated with large discounts and the shopping frenzy was invented in the united states but much of the rest of the world has now jumped on here in
9:21 am
germany for example the country's retail association expects people to spend two point four billion euros on black friday and cyber monday that's a fifteen percent increase compared to last year many retailers are now taking these two days asked seriously traditional summer and winter clearance. for more black friday i have large house or here is my colleague of business lars you've lived in the us for quite some time and seen many black fridays what's your take on the shopping frenzy was just getting bigger and crazier because of every year with people lining up in the early evening hours to be in the store really at the stroke of midnight and it's an absolute stem pete then but this whole theater as you might call it from just seeing the pictures obviously speaks to an economic truth that is not a very good one speaks tells you a lot of consumers in america many of whom are living paycheck to paycheck and for many people in america black friday is an important day because it's really the
9:22 am
only day where those bargains where they can buy a pair of sneakers or a new t.v. are still worth it for retailers it is yes and no it is definitely when it comes to revenues because black friday drives in the crowds and of course it's about market share it's about those revenue numbers but those definitely come at a price and that of course is a razor thin margins there's really not much money in terms of profits to be made that particular day next friday is catching on all around the world but it's not that much of a big deal in europe for example has a. because we have an entirely different shopping culture here you could not imagine stores in germany let's say to open at midnight or so and that's probably a good thing it has to do with stronger labor laws here as well retailers in retail workers in europe and most countries of course in the world have regular working hours in america they don't they have no guaranteed hours they have low wages and they're not given much of an option here they have to work throughout and
9:23 am
throughout a holiday weekend that they would probably spend with their family rather but they're basically told you have to show up at midday work thought the night or you going to be fired and lars briefly how does the whole online business factor in here of course that's a big thing over the last couple of years and just like every day retail also on black friday or cyber monday online takes a bigger and bigger slice off the pile here if you just think of eleven eleven here singles day recently the online version of black friday coming out of china on shopping day as billions made of course online too but it also comes with a little bit of a problem here cyber security experts of course warned that these bargains can make you blind and that people have to really be watchful and not click on any links that apparently lead to bargains but might just be a phishing scam lawyers are keeping an eye on the most important retail season of the year think it's about you welcome. the japanese carmaker nissan is planning on seeking a review of the shareholding structure of its alliance with france's rhino that's
9:24 am
according to bloomberg who just one day after chairman chairman called his goal and was sacked for allegedly underreporting his income there are rising concerns of france about the future of the government's volman the franco japanese automotive empire ministers of those countries met in paris to exchange views but they underscored their government's commitment to the lions and to nearby remains in custody. that's been you know markets correspondent christian brits here paul for how much control and influence is nice on looking here. well the relationship has been a lopsided and that's of course because when renault took over in a time it was a very very weak company in a sense ring games a strength and become strong. and stronger and much stronger in sales than no has so of course it's now ones to sort of shift that back some regain some
9:25 am
control there are two measures that we might be looking at one is increasing their share in rhino which would then have no lose its voting rights at nissan or the other way around decrease just slightly the share that renault have which would give both parties voting rights rights in each other they'll want to move fast however they might have miscalculated the low bit because carl is going wasn't just the architect of that of that. he was also a mediator and now people might not be looking so positively at the nice and relationship from the french side four percent think so now we'll come back to you in a moment. in south korea samsung electronics has apologized for the sickness and deaths of some of its workers stretching over the last ten years now says it failed to create a safe working environment at his computer chip and screen factors the announcement
