before the british prime minister to make the me explain strike the deal paving the way for u.k. to leave. it to the british prime minister to resign me sell the deal to hope for long. violence flares in central parents and. out of control rooms join protests against price hikes and want to count on the interior to clear the street. from our correspondent.

for the final america's top club competition between river plate and boca juniors is the first time ever the irish teams have played against each other for exactly title. welcome to the program e.u. leaders have cleared the way for a brag the deal at a crucial summit in brussels on sunday at a last minute rao over the disputed territory of gibraltar had threatened to derail the whole process but spain has now agreed to back brags that in exchange for a say in the future of gibraltar british prime minister to resign may then faces a tough challenge getting to break that framework through her own parliament. hoffman has this report from brussels. ah what would we all do without greg's it the story of

a lifetime keeping thousands of politicians public officials and journalists busy most of all of course to reason make yes and she still is the prime minister of the u.k. at least at the time of this recording. but i believe with every fiber of my being that the cools i have set out is the right one for our country and all people. have to give it to her she's nothing if not persistent. it used to be different may was ridiculed disregarded declared for politically dead but that all changed with the brilliant move she made . to words. dancing queen. so this clearly shows that theresa may is beyond caring what people think of are ok

that's not the only reason she's earning some admiration for reading the paper it's written on prime minister it's also the fact of simply still being there but now things are about to get really dicey not necessarily here in brussels it seems likely that leaders will sign off on the withdrawal agreement and the political agreement on sunday. this is where the real battle will take place. well as the battle already is taking place really interest in this house of commons yourself. this empty document. this empty document could have been written two years ago it's happened with phrases such as the parties will look out the parties will explore watching us as the government been doing for the last two years with this kind of resistance what happens next. let's say european

leaders approved the divorce agreement and that's up to the house of commons and you know what they're like. if they do say yes then the european parliament and the e.u. member states need to formally approve the deal at the beginning of next year. results and orderly bracks and at the end of march two thousand and ninety if the house of commons votes no and that seems likely at the moment chaos ensues. after some reflection time all of these possibilities are on the menu from directors it chaos to no flags at all my thoughts on that. will there's still lots of work to be done for me some eight yeah we always say that but you know what it's true if she remains prime minister this offer came all right basically you know i think. if she remains prime minister let's bring in

of a zone who is in london to discuss the latest developments so bob to resume is in brussels already ahead of tomorrow's summit can she sleep easy tonight oh i presume that this is the best night's sleep that reason may's going to get for quite a while because she doesn't have any further problems in brussels the deal is the deal is the deal it's on the table the books are closed she knows what's what and there will be no for the surprises so all that is left now is probably having a drink with. the commission president and to talk about how to proceed after breakfast and look into the future and think about how you could then start negotiations about the economic future relationship between the two parties that is the only thing that is still on the agenda so

a quiet relaxing evening in brussels before the storms will brew in you at home so badly you are saying a deal is a deal is a deal but the big hurdle of course is waiting for how back home how exactly she going to present this deal to her parliament. that is if we stay was the musical question of the drone travolta a breakfast for tourism a which means staying alive whether she can or not there is no telling if we look at if we look at the do you peel the northern irish unionists party assembly this afternoon and belfast tourism a must feel slightly sick because arlene foster who is supposed to prop up her government was completely moved we will vote this deal down we will not vote for it that was quite clear and she said it several times and also the image the pictures that came from there because the site early in foster was three's

a maze favorite and best and most intimate enemy boris johnson from her own conservative party and he was speaking there so she knows what's what and she knows she is really encircled by opponents and how she is going to save this nobody knows at the moment but i have a full reporting from london always a pleasure to hear from you well police in paris have fired tear gas and water cannon to disperse protesters demonstrating against rising fuel costs parts of the french capital have been brought to a standstill by so-called yellow vest protest as who oppose president. and his economic policies thousands of police officers have been deployed to stop them from reaching the presidential palace two people have been killed and hundreds injured since the nationwide protests began last week. and correspondent lisa lewis is in paris and has been following the action all day. we've seen mayhem on

the streets of paris today why did these protests turned violent. you know demonstrations are nothing new and fun there's you know i thought these demonstrations are that different because normally they're organized very well organized by the unions because the unions are used to that or other patients this protest has been without a leader without a leading organization really since the beginning about a week ago and that's why they also don't really under control you know so the same thing seen today at the sounds easy and the scene is still on you know quite extraordinary really because you know we don't get such seen such super violent scenes there's been snake rising up from the shall we they can see that from any point in the city or indiana really is only just such an emblematic point and ties that these pictures have gone around the world and that's exactly because the because the movement is real as and they're not really being organized or

controlled by anybody and i don't know but that doesn't explain why they're angry you've been speaking to them one of the even telling you. well i've been talking to a few of them and they were saying you know what what unites them is really this anger about the government now the trigger for protests with a rise in fuel taxes because they were saying yeah the government wants to go towards a more sustainable society but we have to pay for this as we see middle class people earning between one thousand and three thousand euros per month we have to pay the bills whereas the rich people don't really have to pay their fair share and they're saying it's not only a few taxes lots of other taxes and fees they have to pay and they feel that the government is not really seeing them many people who are participating in these protests have never met these pools demonstrated and found that's quite extraordinary really and they're saying you know the government has been ignoring

our need for such a long time and many of these people are actually you know they live in the countryside let's say the politicians in the capitol are so far away from our concerns are every day concerned they don't even understand who we are they really need to do something for us and that's why we're here now today and that's why we're protesting so how exactly is the presidency manual mccool going to deal with this because it's obviously a big challenge for him. absolutely minimal cost for the time being he has you know seem to be trying to wait this one out and just wait for it to go. but now he is and the next you say you wouldn't answer new measures and he would try to find a better compromise through a very very you know your school of he wants as most sustainable society but he says that he's not going to try and find a way to better share the burden between the different parts of society and you know when he came since he came to power he and really been talking much to the

union so he didn't actually like to negotiate with them he was trying to circumvent the intermediary bodies and. so he wants that next tuesday you would actually bring them in it would bring in the unions and he would say you know we're going to find a solution together we're going to really change the way we're going about this and he's trying to calm a very down. lisa lewis in paris thank you thank you. now to some of the other stories making news around the world taiwan's ruling democratic progressive party has suffered a major defeat in local elections the island's independence leaning president signed when resigned as head of the party the vote was seen as a key test for science administration which has been under attack from beijing over her refusal to agree that taiwan is part of china. at least thirty people have been killed in india when their bus fell into a canal in karnataka state police say the bus get off the bridge and plunged into
