8:01 am
there's no end to the explosions and gunfire at the hotel complex in the kenyan capital nairobi that's under siege from islamist insurgents at least fifteen people have died so far and we live in nairobi for the latest poll of poll into the situation. and present a call and it was all a credit to are asking the french people to tell him their grievances but will it be enough to satisfy the yellow bests. hello i'm terry march and thanks for joining us british prime minister theresa may and her government face a no confidence vote later today that after lawmakers threw out her breaks that deal it was the biggest and most humiliating defeat in modern british history if may's government loses the confidence by. it could trigger
8:02 am
a general election and fresh chaos for the acrimonious breaks that process the ice to the right two hundred into. the nose to the left four hundred and thirty two. it's the biggest defeat for a government in the house of commons in over a century. more than two thirds of lawmakers said no to teresa mayes divorce agreement with the e.u. it is clear that the house does not support this deal but tonight spirits tells us nothing about what it does support nothing about how. the nothing about how or even if it intends to honor the decision the british people took in a referendum parliament decided to hold its target people may hopes to return to parliament with a new bracks had planned by next week across the channel there was a law among equal leaders at the prospect of a no deal breaks that commission president john clarke again urged the u.k.
8:03 am
to clarify its intentions noting that time is almost up a sentiment echoed by dutch prime minister mark hota who tweeted that the e.u. was preparing for all scenarios and that the next step was up to the u.k. . french president emmanuel mccall had words of caution for those calling for a no deal her exit evolve at the end of the british push for a no deal scenario it will scare everyone and the british have the most to lose in that situation. after the vote there were happy faces to be seen outside the houses of parliament. hundreds of pro demonstrators had gathered there to watch the vote. for them the deal's defeat brought hope that breaks it could still be avoided. but one thing that can't be avoided is a vote of no confidence slated for today opposition leaders hope that fresh elections will and the bricks at gridlock i therefore mr speaker inform you i have
8:04 am
now tabled abduction of no confidence. so this house can give its verdict on the share incompetence of discomfort. that notion of no confidence in the government but with no clear path forward observers fear the u.k. is one critical step closer to a disorderly divorce from the e.u. . which and we have team coverage of the fallout from teresa mayes defeat in parliament last night. is in london for us teri schultz joins us from brussels and simon young is standing by at our parliamentary studios here in berlin good morning to you all first to you bigot. why did may's deal get rejected by such a huge margin. well. s. are really scathing in their criticism as well of reason may the sun newspaper has
8:05 am
had its bricks thing and the deal was dead as a dodo and indeed there seems to be a really strong conviction on both sides of the breaks a divide inside the house of parliament there are those who think that this deal essentially a compromise deal is just not as good as what the u.k. enjoys now which is fully your membership including for example the rebate so for them it's a step back and then there are others who think that there is that may have given too much ground to the european union and with had deal that britain would be tied to closely and for too long a period of time to the european union and some even say we shouldn't give any money to the european union before we know what we get for get a trade deal for example so really passionate opinions on both sides and nobody seems to be in a mood to compromise the rejection of the bridge to deal burge it was a huge blow for prime minister theresa may she now faces a no confidence vote in parliament today will she survive it.
8:06 am
it does look at a moment as though she will survive it the members on the far right of her own party who voted against her and in the vote last night said they are going to back her as are the d u p which is the party that basically props up to reason may's government so it looks like that for the moment she is safe but we just don't know what's going to happen next and of course it's not a foregone conclusion she does need to survive this vote so we will see later today whether she can indeed map out her next step she has promised that she will as soon as next monday lineout what exactly she is trying to do she's trying to also reach out within parliament and see if she can work with parliamentarians from other parties and see what they what it is that they actually want but first she needs to survive the vote later today so terry if the u.k. wants to leave the e.u.
8:07 am
that much we know but the british legislature has rejected the terms of departure where does that leave brussels the european union. clued in last night after the vote that it will not reopen this deal commission president hugo said this is the best deal that the u.k. is going to get and of course the treason may has come back to brussels numerous times seeking what she calls further reassurances on the irish backstop and there has been no indication by the commission by the european union that it will reopen this deal so what. leaders are saying here is that they're preparing for a no deal breck's it stepping up their contingency planning and you of course have council president to suggesting yet again as he has on previous occasions that let's just forget the whole thing and the u.k. can stay but as mentioned nobody here in brussels knows what's going to happen next they're simply say that it's in the u.k. scored simon huge implications of this for for britain's partners on the continent
8:08 am
how is berlin reacting. you know terry there's been quite a lot of reaction from berkeley in to this vote in london we haven't heard from chancellor merkel directly yet but. vice chancellor the senior social democrat of shots he said this was a bitter day for europe and the leader of the c.d.u. angela merkel's party and a great credit current. said that she regretted the decision very much the economy minister has said that london must be given more time to think about its position but he also said that substantial renegotiation of the deal couldn't happen and one other comment to hike a mosque the foreign many state sounded pretty frustrated in an interview about the fact that is he said you know we still don't know what london does want even if we do know a bit more what it does want he said that compromise has already happened and that
8:09 am
if anything more could be offered to london. that should have already happened he said that if the government in britain seeks to perspire article fifty and its perspire own leaving the e.u. but that would be looked at constructively that's his attitude w. simon young in berlin teri schultz and brussels and big boss in london thank you very much to you to all of you. well for so some perspective on just what happened there in britain and what it means for british citizens living abroad i'm joined by jane golding she's the chair of british in europe that's the biggest coalition group of british citizens living and working in the e.u. good morning good morning jayne the british parliament has rejected the brakes deal does that increase the chances that britain will end up staying in the e.u.
8:10 am
after all. it possibly could do but it may not because of the moment the way everything is sets up. what automatically would leave on the twenty ninth's of much at the legislation is set up for that of course this huge face against the deal and the vacuum that it leaves open could mean of a solutions have to be found yes two hundred thirty the margin against it was two hundred thirty that's really significant that you represent the interests of the british citizens living here in the european union what are the main concerns of the those people like yourself no well the main concern for all of us is uncertainty we've been living for over two hundred two years now in limbo there are less than seventy days left until march until the date that we're that the u.k. is supposed to leave the e.u. and a deal was made on citizens' rights last year and what we've said from the beginning
8:11 am
with the largest group of a usage since in the u.k. with whom we work very closely is that people needed to be taken out of the equation out of the negotiations and what we want to see now is that trees a man comes out commits to ring fencing that agreement that was reached already on citizens' rights and gives a seventy both to the sense in the u.k. and u.k. citizens here in the e.u. twenty seven there is still a lot of uncertainty at this point of course surrounding bragg's it and what it means. for u.k. citizens living abroad they've been pulling the brakes and saga from the beginning of course i want to ask you to look into your crystal ball at this point and i want to ask you what do you see happening on march twenty ninth coming up as you say just a little over seventy days that's the day that the britain supposedly the e.u. what do you think will happen well i think that the vote yesterday actually made
8:12 am
the possibility of an extension all the more possible far more possible than that was it's already being talked about in the media i was giving expert evidence in the bluntest top before the e.u. committee on monday along with other expert witnesses and it was one of the questions that was being discussed in that context and i frankly don't see how the legislation can be put in place for the u.k. to leave by the twenty ninth of march at this point time is just running out and you say you are speaking to members of the bundestag and briefing them on on what's going on what are their concerns well i'm in office late they want to know what's going on in the u.k. and what exactly the u.k. ones i mean i think that's what everybody wants to know. exactly what is it that does not seem to be any that doesn't seem to be any consensus among politicians on exactly what the u.k. wants this point and that was clear last night of its length because both the two
8:13 am
sides of the debate were voting against the deal for very different reasons very conflicted indeed the saga continues jane thank you very much for talking with us this morning is jane golding chair of the british in europe thank you. markets and businesses are busy digesting the breaks about. crushing defeat as only a moderate effect on the markets says across asia mixed with many investors simply holding out for what happens next the pound initially fell to a two year low but has since bounced back the view is that the rejection of may's deal makes two diametrically opposed outcomes more likely. or another referendum this is no way to see whether may will survive parliament's no confidence vote later today. it's all very confusing so let's bring in
8:14 am
meeting he's a chief economist at bank and joins us now from frankfurt the result was expected if not crushing as it was markets took it in stride it seems but the uncertainty continues has anything changed for business. not that nothing really has changed for business we now know that this particular breck's idiot is probably out we do not know where it's going but indeed events are moving fast and a very encouraging thing for markets is that we have this no confidence vote today already which could mean that the threat or but unity of new elections could be out by the end of this date and with may's deal probably doomed and if the confidence vote goes as expected through with the mainstays in office with the threat of new elections also out of the way then we could next week see fast political action in the u.k. two words what many businesses hope will actually be
8:15 am
a softer version of breck's it so it's good that under time pressure at least events are moving and many are losing patience though with all the students rather than say let's just crash out of the u.n. pick up the pieces with the simple solution to achieve clarity for for business to be for the you to renegotiate good riddance great britain well that would of course be clarity but that would be clarity of an absolutely devastating sort no that is not what businesses are hoping for and seeking we will hopefully get a deal with the transition period we would probably get a deal that is softer than the one which may negotiated the chances of a deal under which the u.k. stays in the common market and the customs union for goods the chances of such a deed have risen in my view and amid all the escalating uncertainty the hope for
8:16 am
such of the it is something that businesses do see as a positive. first meeting their chief economist bill thank you very much. that's all your business it's back to terry thank you go. to kenya there are still explosions and gunfire at the hotel complex under siege from insurgents in the capital nairobi even though the government claimed to have secured the site at least fifteen people have died but scores of survivors have been freed the small the islamist group al shabaab says its fighters carried out the attack. to look for relieved and finally free after iraq is trapped inside hidden in toilet stalls and under de asks these survivors to recount the territory they witnessed.
8:17 am
and then. spread over. i think they went to the top. spring. the exit where we each hoping to tick. coming from because. i don't know how that happened. i was attending a presentation expedition. i think that i have. to keep. i think that sort of. c.c.t.v. shows the gunman entering the hotel complex before the attack ira's liter somali based terrorist group al-shabaab claimed responsibility i don't know if. it's the same group that's been behind
8:18 am
a series of deadly attacks in kenya over the past eight years. our correspondent joins us now from nairobi so what's happening there now is the siege over. it's not yet over we're still hearing explosions and gunshots once in a while and the situation where we are right now here where the press is that's quite calm but the security forces are all the way up into the hotel there's ambulances around here and we saw earlier on about an hour ago we saw somebody who was injured who was being taken out of it so there's still definitely something going on but we were not. told from where from from where the gunshots and one of the security forces was from or whether there's a viable between the two sides the earlier we heard the authorities say that the area was safe to it was secure. yet as you point out there are still reports
8:19 am
of gunfire and explosions how do you account for the discrepancy. well yes that's what we've heard as well from from official fide. they are so i mean there there have been public warnings that. that people should stay away from this area basically when you come the road to nairobi are absolutely empty that's hardly anybody on the road so everybody is basically the whole city is basically under lockdown and nothing nothing much happening we're expecting to hear from president who can get a very soon. so we're hoping to get an update from from the government on that bill the somali shabaab group has attacked a number of targets in kenya over the last couple of years they've also claimed responsibility for this attack how is the government coping with the threat. the government is. as you know is active in somalia and i can see behind you there
8:20 am
are some security forces still entering. arriving. behind me so that government is active in somalia and is there and in the fight against us above but there have been several attacks since the westgate attack a couple of years ago there's been any talk at the university a couple of years ago a major attack and also smaller ones which have been happening throughout the years so it seems to be something that's difficult that the government is fighting difficult to handle. sela thank you very much for bringing us up to date there on a coach reporting live from nairobi. now to some of the other stories making news around the world today australian officials have arrested two airline employees for allegedly smuggling high grade heroin into the country cabin crew from lindo air are accused of belonging to a drug trafficking ring that operated from malaysia to australia police say the syndicate had been active for five years. several hundred one during migrants
