4:02 pm
a deadline to be delayed until june thirtieth she said she hoped to get britain out of the e.u. before european parliamentary elections in may adding if that's not possible london will make preparations to take part the british parliament is still deadlocked over the withdrawal agreement that may secure with the e.u. . for more on this we're joined from london by do at mass and from brussels by. first to you in london get can you give us some details on what exactly true reason may is asking for this time. well the reasoning really heinrich to reason may's request is that she wants more time to sort of wrecks it basically because here in parliament she has faced a deadlock she has to try time and again to get the deal that she has negotiated with brussels to get it three but she has failed so now she has a plan b. she is holding talks with the opposition with the labor party but she knows that
4:03 pm
this will take time so if they come to an agreement it would take more than just a couple of weeks but she is asking for this time to be given until the end of june and the reasoning behind the end of june is that then the european parliament would sit so britain would make provisions for the e.u. parliament elections but the any peace wouldn't actually start sitting until july so she really wants to present prevent that but she knows she needs more time here in london i guarantee you now in brussels there are conflicting comments coming from brussels in paris today on a second extension is their agreement with be you on this. they are indeed what we've heard from paris so far is that it's a bit premature to talk about this this kind of an extension and it's not surprising really because theresa may has asked for that deadline already once the one g. for the first on asked for an extension to the may rather to the march deadline and
4:04 pm
back then at the e.u. summit there was quite a row over whether the u.k. should be given that extension the decision then was a two stage extension which or the u.k. is currently facing in april and in may and so on i'm not sure if you leaders will give him to teresa mayes wishless in fact the head of the european council has made a suggestion for a much longer extension of the years extension that includes some flexibility so if a deal would pass the house of parliament then the u.k. could leave the attract. part of that solution would be that the e.u. avoids the u.k. coming every other week asking for short extensions ok and get back to you how is treason may's decision to seek this extension and hold e.u. elections how's that likely to go down on both sides of the political aisle in london. i think overall it's really not
4:05 pm
a very good look if you speak to people on the streets most of them can't really understand what's going on why is it taking them to long why you can't we just leave especially those who wanted gregg's it here in parliament those who are advocating a softer break that maybe staying in the customs union some sort of a law in meant to the single market which would be more the labor position for them this is good news because they would have time to influence of rexx of process and getting their views had in the government and their deal different deal they go shoot it here in london so for those them who advocated for breaks it who really were driving this process for them it's something of a taboo they really don't want the european elections most of them at least are very clear that they don't want it. so you it really depends which sure which side of the you're looking on but overall for the people i think most of them don't want to have more on saturday they just want to know when is this over ok and gayle
4:06 pm
briefly if you could what happens next in brussels there's a key e.u. summit set for next week what's going to happen now. what you do leaders will have to decide on that's almost whether they will defer to reason made that extension or with whether they will make an alternative offer potentially even the longer extension the flex tension will including flexibility to leave whenever a deal has been reached that all will be discussed next week at the summit at the end of the day for the e.u. it's absolutely crucial that a disorderly breaks it can be avoided all right scale matters in brussels and big mouth in london thank you so much. to libya now where forces loyal to a powerful militia leader every church the outskirts of tripoli the seat of the u.n. backed government the offensive launched by general khalifa haftar months an escalation in the power struggle that's been raging since the overthrow of moammar gadhafi in

4:20 pm
a lot of buzz there's actually will this be the season the dormant is the excuse me buyer is dethroned and when you factor it to him in new coach handful of new pieces it's quite impressive as well as you know buyers new coaching that could be a reason that they're looking up to doing right now but you know it's been a boss is a bit as they get has really come down to a potential photo finish and it looks like that's what's in the works right now ok now i don't know and had a big lead in the been to think a standings was the end of last year and now they're only just ahead of by and what what happened if they lose i meant incomplete you will there was a strict mean you know biron pretty much turned things on in dortmund had a had a stretch of draws they actually were defeated the first of march but then as of late they made it to turn things around they just picked up their third win in a row versus wolfsburg and one player in particular park will cough or he really contributed he stepped up he had an amazing free kick you know to score a goal and then as well as it ensures go late the mad so i think that helps going

into this match their players are performing and the coach the head coach was you barbara also touched on this match now he knows obviously he's in a better position but he was pretty honest in the reality of the situation after this match there are still points of vailable here sound from coach fabio let's take a listen just i mean it's a little bit special of course because of the situation in the table and because it's by and against dortmund but it's obvious that it's special but there are seven games left and this is just the first one. like we said we have to produce a very best of everything has to be perfect. ok so that was a new c.f.o. after he's new to the classical this season so his band's coach said what he did thing well you know buyer you know as a player the cocoa box is familiar with the classic but you know if he's basically first off let's just put you know byron under the microscope for
