10:02 am
european union should precede the proposals included leaving the e.u. without a deal remaining in the single block of the single market customs unit or holding a new referendum the results only ended up highlighting division. so what does this whole mean. just now from london to talk about that bigotry survey 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. exactly that's what it is terry it's an extraordinary act of of self-sacrifice to reason may say i am going when you help me and she is addressing her own party she's addressing those that are called bricks of tears that are thinking that she just wasn't tough enough in her negotiations with the european union and they won in the next phase because
10:03 am
remember this is just phase one this is just the exit to 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 ear opinion and they were on somebody else somebody from their side who 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 so it's reason may says you'll 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 to proceed all of those options were rejected does that take us another step closer to a no deal brags that. well anything that's not an agreement here in law and then takes us closer to a no do you have directed because. that's the default option if there is no
10:04 am
agreement and also no extension and also from the european union new deal is or just exiting the european union is is the deal default option and if there is no deal that signed and if there is no extension the end 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 are there clearly against no deal they fear this will be incredibly damaging for the economy also for for any future relationship with the 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 his father 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 which is
10:05 am
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 have a happen because also they're such a greggs it should teach 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 realise actually it's terribly complicated and also from the point of those who are fighting for a referendum it's it's not beneficial for the u.k. it to leave so for 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 to then you leave on those terms however it would also mean that's been divisive. period over this
