7:01 am
. you don't know anything and you're terrified. you talk to a human rights lawyer failed in trying this secret detention system. and in the women's champions league german side looked ready to challenge defending champions league but the french club proved just too strong. following terry martin welcome to the program we start with the political deadlock in the u.k. over bragg's it and the announcement that theresa may will quit as prime minister if her twice defeated breaks it deal is approved by parliament last night m.p.'s voted on eight different options on how the country's withdrawal process from the european union should proceed the proposals included leaving with leaving the e.u. without. deal remaining in the single block of the single market and customs union
7:02 am
or holding a new referendum well the results only ended up highlighting divisions. once again the nos have it with the prime minister to resign may's breaks that deal floundering in unpopularity of members of parliament put forward eight alternative plans in respect all of them were voted down eight. having. having it through the news having. for the government this was confirmation that may's deal is the only option considered a wide variety and they did restraints that there were no easy options here there is no simple way forward the deal the government has negotiated is a compromise with the e.u. with members across this house the results of the process this house has gone through today strengthens our view that the deal that governments has negotiated is
7:03 am
the best option and i the government's argument has an inspired support from parliament so far and it's uncertain if the third time will be the charm when the house votes again on may steel that could be as soon as friday to sweeten the deal the prime minister promised to step down and give way to new leadership if a deal passes there's a great reading brigs that hardliner boris johnson said he would vote for the deal which he won scorned he's considered one of the front runners to take may's place just can fix that vision once again yet may will also need the support of her conservative allies from northern ireland the d u p to get her deal through. and they haven't budged the do you pieces maze deal could create internal trade barriers that would hurt northern ireland. we warned her before she signed that withdrawal agreement we wrote to her you will recall in relation to all of these matters but she decided to go ahead we cannot sign up to something that would
7:04 am
damage the union. some members of parliament took heart from wednesday's voting despite a lack of majority support for any alternative plans. two proposals one for a customs union with you and another for a public referendum on any briggs a deal both earned over two hundred sixty votes. a minority but still more than may's brigs a deal. for those plans supporters this could signal a way forward parliament is set to vote on monday on a narrower list of alternative plans many out so what does this whole mean. joins us now from london to talk about that to get to recently is offering to resign of parliament approves her breaks the deal is that supposed to be an incentive suggesting parliament might sign off on the deal just to get rid of her.
7:05 am
exactly that's what it is terry it's an extraordinary act of all self-sacrifice to reason may is saying i am going when you help me and she is addressing her own party she's addressing those that are called bricks a tear is that our thinking that she just wasn't tough enough and her negotiations with the european union and they wasn't in the next phase because remember this is just phase one this is just the exit in the e.u. but everything that comes off of this is the so-called phase two soni go shooting in detail the future relationship between the u.k. and the e.o.p. and union and they were on somebody else somebody from their side to move through wasn't on the remains side like the prime minister was in the referendum but somebody has really fought for breaks it from the beginning who they think and hope will from their point of view stand up more to the european union such reason may says he will get someone like that or you get a chance to elect someone like that if you come behind me and if you get this deal over the line last night lawmakers there in london voted on several options on how
7:06 am
to proceed. all of those options were rejected does that take us another step closer to a no deal breaker. well anything that's not an agreement here in london takes a says closer to a no deal of bret's is because that's the default option if there is no agreement and also no extension then also from the european union new deal is or just exiting the european union is is the do you default option and if there is no deal that signed and if there is no extension and then yes it will happen but you also have to see that parliamentarians are clearly and they have said this in their vote yesterday they they're clearly against no deal they fear this will be incredibly damaging for the economy also for for any future relationship with the
7:07 am
european union and it would put such a strain on it that they really don't want that to happen so they will do everything they can and they will work on it further on monday i believe to prevent us now one of the options and last night's vote was a second referendum that option got more votes than any other alternative what does that tell us. well it's not a clear majority either but it just tells us from the logic of those who have fought for this referendum and really looked very unlikely that this might ever happen because also there's such a briggs and fatigue here in the u.k. but the reasoning is that anything that it will be agreed now that the people and know what exactly it means to leave the european union they know it now they didn't know when they voted it was promised it was going to be very easy and now people realize actually it's terribly complicated and also from the point of those who
7:08 am
are fighting for a referendum it's it's not but a fish. for the u.k. to leave so few people then to say well we know what this means so do we really want it have another think about it and then if you really want it then you leave however it would also mean that divisive period over breaks and all of this wrangling all of this back and forth would go on and i'm not sure that the e.u. would be terribly happy with that. big a thank you. in london. now to some of the other stories making headlines around the world today boeing has delivered a software upgrade for its seven thirty seven max passenger jet that's meant to prevent failures of the aircraft and he stole system the plans the planes have been grounded worldwide following the deadly ethiopian airlines crash earlier this month boeing says the timing of the upgrade was not related to the accident. facebook

7:19 am
a few high profile cases it probably has its origin in the enter corruption compay and because this is how the party handles internal cases people disappear under the party they are investigated and then handed over to the judicial system and this has been extended to political cases like those we've seen the lawyers the canadians who have disappeared all those whose cases are directly watched by the central government when someone is taken into secret detention like your report shows that must be very distressing for the detainees families what recourse do they have who can they ask for help. well they usually do what everybody would do they try to go to every possible organization which in china i mean state organ and try to find out something police station in detention centers
7:20 am
regular criminal detention centers etc etc there they don't get any information they try to find a lawyer but lawyers do not get access either the only thing they can do really is to get as much possible international public attention to their case because they can hope that this will offer some kind of protection to their relatives although it's never able to release him body from these detention centers so international attention you can try to get that is china facing any international pressure over these disappearances. china is facing pressure on individual cases all the time there is always there are a few high profile cases and these lawyers are some of them who have been very closely watched by the unit or national diplomatic or when there are official court hearings diplomats try to go there of course the international press goes there so

7:23 am
stop shrinking for now. what the measurements in the for your where this classic is demonstrated is that when the last year was retreating the waters were quite warm and they were beaten fed by waters from the ocean and when the glass it was started to thicken about wars is no longer that most of the said the oceans aren't woman it's just the transfer of heat from the ocean to the face of the glass has stopped too little too late that's the researchers message there's no sign that global warming is slowing down instead they say what's happening in samara is worrying proof that the speed of change in ocean temperatures can affect greenland biggest glaciers. sports now and we start with football in the women's champions league two of europe's top clubs met in the second leg of their quarterfinals tie germany's post-war host to defending champions league don't and the french club already with a press club already holding a two one lead. eight minutes into the match the fiery mood dampened for the woman
