this is. from berlin tonight the ultimate sacrifice to save her bright supplant british prime minister to resign may says she is willing to resign tonight infuser voting on the number of new options for leaving the european union the prime minister says that she's prepared to step. across the finish line we'll go live to london for the latest also coming up turkish president wants ruling party up for a major test of support in local elections that will determine who governs turkey's

cities discontent is widespread with many turks hit by the country's economic recession and the biggest in west africa is where the elites me to watch the watchers ngo horses but mostly each other. lego international oh look. i'm good to have you with we start with that crippling political deadlock in the u.k. and an announcement that may change everything prime minister theresa may have told her conservative party that she will quit her job as prime minister if her twice defeated. is approved by parliament this week that would leave her successor to lead this. i could phase of negotiations on britain's post briggs relationship with

the european union lawmakers are debating options tonight that could steer the country's withdrawal process from the european union ahead of a series of crucial votes later this evening besides may's deal the other proposals on the table include leaving the e.u. with the only remaining in the european union single market and customs union or holding a new works at referendum the plan is for the most popular ideas to move to a second vote on monday in hopes of finding one option that. can win a majority in part due. to our a lot happening tonight with me here at the big table is our brags that analysed forest wiring these are dramatic events denied to resume a saying that she is willing to quit if parliament will keep her plan alive this is

no surprise is that it's not a surprise and let's remember that she hasn't set a date of when she will quit if had to go through that many people thinking that if she does get it through it will be we be looking at the end of june for her to go and she said to the have backbench m.p.'s at the one nine hundred twenty two committee i'm prepared to leave this job earlier than i intended in order to do what is right for our country and for op paci and i think. the key point that she is making here because there has been a huge amount of animosity towards her from within her own party you may remember back in december there was a vote of no confidence in have from within her own party now she won that but that . disappointment with her has not gone away it has been bubbling under the surface and has come out to last in the past couple of weeks with people saying to her even to have face you need to go so this is her chance. to say look i am going to go but

only if you back my deal ok is that what's going to happen now are these hard won briggs it's yours or they're going to let her fall on her sword and walk with her bricks that well already in the past few minutes we've heard that boris johnson the former foreign secretary who has been very outspoken about the of the deal with the e.u. and about the may has said that he will now back it jacob bre small coup is the chair of. conservative bret citic group the european research group he has now said that he will back it if those ten northern irish m.p.'s the d u p a staying on it because at the moment they are still not prepared to back it so this is a lot to play for and if he does bring it back which there is talk of that happening perhaps even on friday if the speaker of the house of commons allows that that's another issue if you think it is is to come back she still has

a long way to go because she may be winning over some of those parts of tears but that still wouldn't be enough she'd need some labor m.p.'s to come on board as well in britain she's also got to remember what the agreement was with the european union from last week she's supposed to get her deal passed by the end of this internationally why do it would be the day to do it so what happens though if that doesn't happen then where are we are we in. syria i mean everything is uncharted as we've been saying for weeks but we know that the date of when the u.k. is jus to leave the e.u. it was supposed to be on friday that has not been changed because of that meeting last week and i actually as was speaking will be being changed in parliament tonight by what's called a statutory instrument so we know friday's not the date the next date is the twelfth of eight also in two weeks time and so everything is still on the table there is still the possibility let's not forget of a no. brix it is the reason mate has been fighting for her to do it has been

defeated twice in parliament already by he a huge majority against that do and yet she is still trying to bring it back and has worked tirelessly to try to win those bricks the tears over to her way of thinking always what do you think the impact from from europe on this decision has been to me today for example in the european parliament we have done will you know we heard him say to all of the people in the u.k. who want to remain in the e.u. we represent you you or europeans and he got your standing ovation right he did and you know as we keep saying the u.k. still very special on this and yes there are many people who want the u.k. to leave the e.u. there are many who do not but i think that you upon the whole is fairly sick of watching this this drama being played out in. parliament and the fact that nobody

can reach an agreement and tonight as well other things that are happening is we've got british m.p.'s have taken over parliament which is historic for a few hours where they are trying to put forward their own proposals of where it can go next and that is you know with every option on the table so at the moment it is completely open how will you know we're looking with interest is it to reason is going to bring her deal back on friday and if not yet we're still waiting to see what happens a lot of unanswered questions tonight forbes what are you as always thank you. it's well here's some of the other stories now that are making headlines around the world india says it has shot down a satellite in a missile test prime minister are in for modi made the announcement in a live address today weeks before the country's general election india's regional wyvil pakistan responded by issuing a call against military threats in outer space that appeared on the country's

have to remain cautious of the protests and the demonstrations show that the algerian people are politically mature for radical change without violence and it shows all of its creativity and its sense of humor and i think brands a lot of the creativity really on the play in the way they're using social media feel it's. creative infused with let's hope the military stays on the side of the people as well. as always thank you. well turkey is gearing up for local elections on sunday fifty seven million voters across the country will choose mayors councilors and local representatives with the turkish economy in trouble president record high of everyone's ruling party faces a stiff challenge and sunday's vote is seen as a referendum on his rule of turkey correspondent yulia hahn met up with one local politician with a very familiar name. this tea house in the town of go to community stumble is more crowded than usual. because today.

he's making several speeches a day and she dryly is shocked even though he's not up for election. and one is hoping his own personal popularity will help make the difference because after a decade and a half in power his ruling party is facing losses. devastated that out there that's mainly because of the worsening economic situation last year's currency crisis sent annual inflation soaring to about twenty percent and sept growth unemployment is on the rise. not just here in istanbul people are now queuing for subsidized vegetables in state run markets solid growth and rising living standards have driven the president the electoral success in the past sixteen years but now turkey is in the midst of a recession and many voters say. they're frustrated about the economy poll suggests this could erode support for adams ruling a type party especially in the larger cities in the capital ankara and here in

center of breast during the german occupation in the second world war the area was a jewish ghetto tens of thousands were executed in and around breasts during that time the site is currently closed off to the public including to local historian every lover of gaia she has been petitioning to stop the building work and argues that should be a memorial park here and not an apartment complex and it's a musical shouldn't to be able to live on the spot of a mass execution half of the population of the city was killed within several days here half of the people living there can you imagine the boy. that pain continues to exist and will not give us peace until we learn to respect history and what happened here. when you're so obsessed with me and from which to preserve sure a special battalion of the belorussian army has been in charge of the excavations.
