7:02 am
party consensus on how the u.k. should leave the e.u. . the ice of the rights three hundred six the no use of the last three hundred twenty five. it was a close call but theresa may survived another nail biter inside the british parliament it was only with the help of her allies from northern ireland's democratic unionist party that may's government won the vote of no confidence triggered by the opposition late on wednesday the british pm appealed for unity and decisiveness after the brics a deal she had worked out with the european union was rejected. so now and piece of made clear what they don't want we must all work constructively to get to set out what paula meant does want that's why i'm inviting m.p.'s from all parties to come together to find a way forwards one the both delivers on the referendum and can come on to the
7:03 am
support of parliament this is now the time to put self interest aside the british pm said she had already held talks with a number of parties with more discussions scheduled she talked about one party that had not joined the conversation so far. i am disappointed that the leader of the labor party has not so far chosen to take part but door remains open she must return to parliament on monday with a new proposal plan b. for that she'll have to hold tough talks on two fronts at home she'll convene with rebels in her own party and opposition lawmakers to try to find a compromise. at the same time she's expected to meet again with european union leaders to try and persuade them to make changes to the withdrawal agreement but the e.u.'s chief negotiator michel barnier said on wednesday that it's up to london now to move forward with an orderly withdrawal in the meantime the e.u.
7:04 am
is stepping up contingency planning for a no deal breck's it. let's get the latest now from our correspondent in london barbara basler is there barbara so parliament has voted to keep theresa may in power but will that make it any easier for her to solve the brics that puzzle. not really terry because of course nothing has changed i mean isn't that her month nothing has changed because she's as weak as she was before this vote of no confidence her conservative party has decided to stand up really to sort of keep the hold of government and not to sort of dare to go out into new elections and so to reason may is still clinging on at the problem now is that she has to come up with something until monday and this is just about three days from now and she doesn't have much time to do that what she should have done at the beginning of
7:05 am
this very process talk to all the other parties in parliament and somehow figure out which majority could lie and that is her task at the moment and it is a very difficult one because her own party the hard line breaks a cheer a heart of brakes that and the other side the opposition want a softer break that as you mentioned barbara may is due to present a new brakes strategy to parliament on monday what possible approach can we expect from her. that that's the one million euro question terry because even people around her don't know that her own advisors when they talk in private to service here in london throw up their hands and say we have no idea what's going on in her mind because she keeps everything so close to her breast now the options are clear she could go for a softer break sit in try to sort of collect the whole the whole opposition and she would need about fifty votes from labor in order to get that sort of proposal
7:06 am
through if she could get all the other opposition parties the scottish s.n.p. and the other smaller than the other smaller parties so that would need to be a softer version maybe the offer to stay in a customs union maybe even more maybe even norway solution which is a bit more unlikely but on the other hand more than a hundred of her own people her own conservatives have voted against her on tuesday evening and sort of killed her deal because they want something much harder they would need to naked trade agreement canada style no those two things to bring those together somehow and to sort of quit square the circle is extremely difficult and nobody knows yet in her own cabinet split four ways you know some say go softer others say no go really hard others say so blackmail the european union so it's still the same disunity and a sort of disharmonious noise that's emerging from downing street we're hearing
7:07 am
theresa may now reaching out trying to get more support for her new strategy whatever that is going to be is there a possibility barbara that she might have the time off to someone else who is more capable of building consensus. that's what some people around her say because people in sort of surrounding trees and may her advisers and people close to her say she is simply not the person up for the job when she sits in a room and somebody comes in all goodwill sex out immediately because she is so stubborn she is so inflexible and so so no nailed down in her own position and to own thinking that you can't really talk about compromises with her so somebody somebody else should be doing this whether she will relent or the she will sort of say ok i step back and i get some other people to do the talks for me and to figure
7:08 am
out a majority could be or to figure out whether we should what we should do whether we should probably go for prolongation was the european union even though this rumor about being a problem for until the end of next year even seems to be on confirmed so far but still there there are a number of options on the table and to resume a doesn't seem to be the best place person to pursue them barbara thank you very much for now d.-w. is part of a zone there in london. you case decision to leave the e.u. has dominated politics in that country for the last two years leaving little time for politicians to focus on other issues such as health care education or jobs especially many feel failed up with the endless obsession with great. every day abdul's a fostex up the newspapers at his small london kiosk and every day he gets more and more frustrated with the headlines. each and every day if you see everybody
7:09 am
in that mind makes it makes it because it what is a big city like. people are suffering you know only the baby body everybody and everything in mind first when you wake up it's it when you sleep for london is the chaos over westminster has become business as usual on tuesday the rejection of teresa mayes breaks that deal today the vote of no confidence against the prime minister. to the least one of them me crazy get on with it do it and it's and it's through all the votes it i thank everything senate they haven't made that many of my kitty cesium on my all the knob and let everyone know what they do they know because it's got an old fart and confusing moment people especially people are. unhappy people of all ages or generations all parties or thoughts and beliefs on happy and on set and we need a bit more certainty in decision making you know it's this uncertainty which
7:10 am
threatens apple's a far as small business most of the products in his shop come from europe with breaks it he expects serious problems. all the business suffering because if you know that exactly what will happen. is happening on either do it either don't leave that. to now apple has to wait after all there's only one thing he can rely on another day another break headline. i. well here in berlin chancellor merkel has commented on her government's way forward with braids it's this is what she had to say. i deeply regret the fact that the house of commons has rejected the agreement on pretense departure from the e.u. but we believe it is now up to the british side to say what happens next as the prime minister has announced he will. want to keep the damage which will inevitably
7:11 am
follow from bracks it as small as possible. that is why we will continue to seek an orderly solution by taught so few. german chancellor there expressing regret about the british parliament rejecting the braggs deal well for more now i'm joined by our political correspondent simon young who's been following reactions in berlin so we got a a statement of regret from the german chancellor saying she wants to limit the damage from brags that of course how how else what else are you hearing simon from your sources within the german government consumer thing what just happened in london yeah i mean that's the tenor of the reaction regrets and shock i think to many politicians a bit stunned by to resume a failure to get a bit more support at least behind the deal even though everybody. will see
7:12 am
that perhaps it would be. through by the british parliament this week but the size of the opposition's got people a bit a bit stunned lot of politicians saying that you know the ball is very much still in the british court it's of them to come up with some idea of a way forward and you know what medical says they are. it's it's about the british finding finding their plan and a european response but there won't be a renegotiation that's what everybody's been saying but in order to move forward with breaks it somebody has to move the brits obviously have to rethink their position the europeans until now at least have been unified in their position but if this is the brics it is to go ahead won't there have to be some changes on the european side as well and won't treat some may need some assistance from leaders
7:13 am
like i'm going to muckle yeah well certainly that will have to be at least support from the european sites. i suppose you could say that in the in the german rhetoric at least the has been a little bits of wiggle room in the. people have been say well we're ready to talk with michael moss the foreign minister said that as well the chance to said that yesterday but they're also saying we have to be talking on the basis of what's already been a great it doesn't get so clear how large that wiggle room is or the the chairman of the bundestag foreign affairs committee you know but get an ally of the medical he said as well you know the best thing for us to do is to stick to our guns six to the position that we've agreed because that's the best way to help the british to move forward and get a deal just quickly simon the idea of an extension of the article fifty of the actual brags that execution part you're hearing much about that there's some
7:14 am
pressure for that because in particular german businesses are increasingly worried about the prospect of a no deal break seats and so the government i think is certainly thinking about that making plans but what would happen in the case of a no deal breaks it if there is a perspiring moment of bricks it seems to me that the idea that it might be postponed for t.v. isn't in a way of bit more likely than that it would be postponed for three months if you think that the european elections are coming up and if britain is still sort of hanging around off and off out during that then that could create real problems but it does seem an unlikely prospect of this turn on speculation at this point simon young from our political desk thanks so much well hard or soft chaos in britain is also affecting businesses in a couple of minutes we'll take a closer look at that with get humph.
7:15 am
it's been sort of. your year with the w. news one is for not financial have is facing some problems we're going to be getting into that in just a moment but first the greek prime minister alexis tsipras has won a narrow a vote of confidence just days after the country's governing coalition collapsed the breakup was caused by a proposed agreement with macedonia to change its name which has been in dispute between countries for years. as well as foreign minister has said united states is trying to justify staging a coups in the country this after u.s. secretary of state mike home pay a voice support for the opposition controlled national assembly has been pushing to oust socialist president nicolas maduro from power. and dying sked in poland thousands literacy of candles to honor the city's murdered mayor. died on monday after an assailant stabbed him during a fundraising concert many poles see his death as

a blow to openness and tolerance in their country. now to italy which is one of the key entry points to the e.u. for migrants who cross the mediterranean many of them held up as they try to cross the border to france have found themselves relying on the kindness of strangers like one woman in the town of ventimiglia who's turned her cathay into a support center but not everyone there proves. so you go normal doesn't serve much coffee in her small bar these days she doesn't sell many sandwiches either that's because she's been singled out in her small town as the target for hostility and hate. spit at me break my windows and they insult me they ask why help the migrants don't give preference to italians. ventimiglia has become the end of the road for many
