hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us 1st of all some breaking news coming in from from brussels from the european commission the european commission president line is due to make an excuse and a statement on breaks it starting at any moment we are saying now live pictures from brussels at the podium where she's expected to begin her statement in just a moment from now according to irish national broadcaster r.t.e. she's set to announce that the e.u. will begin legal action against the u.k. government of prime minister boris johnson for bile ations of the brakes it withdrawal agreement for more now we go live to our correspondent in brussels barbara barbara what can we expect from this statement. deadline

ran out last night because the european union had said to boris johnson ok listen you need to take back this is internal market bill as it is called in britain because it is violating that was drawn agreement the point there is that it would sort of take back and not he laid some of these special clauses that have been made for continuing trade in northern ireland and johnson the bridge prime minister now wants to step back on that and sort of shape this agreement that is the case of international law shape this agreement according to his own tastes and that is no good go says the european union no they've been mulling over what to do in this case for quite a while and it seems now that they are going the legal route they seem to be prepared to take the united kingdom to the european court of justice and sue them there and say you are sort of going against it was draw agreement is

a clause in there that says both sides have to act in good will and that is of breach this particular bill that just passed the parliament in london this particular bill is a breach of that clause so they are really trying to play hardball was boris johnson and the interesting thing is here beside all this the negotiations are going on in brussels i mean negotiators are sitting in the very same building that you see behind me and there stood trying to bridge the gaps between the expectations and wishes of the 2 sides so this is what all this it's about and it seems that as you say the plot a sickening here in brussels and just the plotters thickening barbara as you say there are negotiations going on still between e.u. and the u.k. the u.k. officially having left the european union at the beginning of this year at the end of january but the road to go shooting the future trading relationship is something

that is still to be worked out what would this step that we believe is going to take the commission she's about to begin let's listen in. remove the problematic parts of their draft internal market bill. by the end of september this draft bill is by its very nature a breach of the obligation of good faith laid down in the withdrawal agreement moreover if adopted as it is it will be in full contradiction to the protocol of ireland northern island. the deadline lapsed yesterday the problematic provisions have not been removed. therefore this morning the commission has decided to send a letter form of notice to the u.k.

government this is the 1st step in an infringement procedure. the letter invites the u.k. government to send its observations within a month. and besides this the commission will continue to work hard towards a full and timely implementation of the withdrawal agreement we stand by our commitments thank you. that was the e.u. commission president or sort of underline lie and stating that the european union is now about to begin legal proceedings against the united kingdom for a breach of articles of good faith in the withdrawal agreement our correspondent barbara basler is standing by for us in brussels a brief statement there from ursula found alone barbro what can we read into it. it's a warning shot for it's london because clearly the e.u.

says basically if this bill comes into legal force and it still has some hurdles particularly in the house of lords to overcome which was supposed to happen later this year but if this bill really legally comes into force we cannot possibly bring a trade agreement into legal action because the to contradict each other also how much face can we have in the united kingdom in the sort of the good will of the united kingdom that they will act according to international treaties that they are making with us the e.u. if they act like this so this was a breach of international law that the british government had known in parliament ministers stood up in parliament and said yes this bill the so-called internal market bill will breach international law and there was a certain amount of up for all but in the end the bill passed without a hitch that means that of course all international partners know particularly the

european union say how can we trust a country like that it is a very serious breach and it absolutely throws a very dark light over the going trade talks and it somehow means that if written doesn't step back from the brink in that case in the end trade agreement cannot really come into force at the beginning of next year so ominous all this very ominous. that this was the 1st step barbara in an infringement procedure has she left some wiggle room there for the u.k. to still get out of the. internal market bill to maybe not adopt and to walk this back and not breach international law. yes they could of course i mean there is with the european union always wiggle room in cases like this sound now the clocks keep starts ticking they will they will get

a letter they have the chance to write a letter back and say oh we're sorry we didn't mean this like that could we somehow agree that it never happened whatever the face saving sort of formula they could find possibly to walk this spec yes it is doable that they will have to walk back because this is not important this is just not illegal detail this is about the future of trade in ireland and this is about keeping boarders an island open and keep in northern ireland time to the internal market of the european union because that's what the 2 parties the u.k. and the e.u. agreed to last year when there was draw agreement was signed so this has to be kept and of course the european union is standing by island where in dublin the government is of course very nervous watching all these shenanigans coming from london so it is sort of coming to the point where the 2 sides will really have to decide particularly london will have to decide what do we want do you want to leave

europe with a big crash and bang at the end of the year have no trade agreement or are we willing to compromise and walk to spec barbara thank you very much that was brussels correspondent barbara. and just a quick recap the european commission president ursula underlying has announced that the european union will immediately launch legal action against the united kingdom for a breach of the good faith articles in the withdrawal agreement of course we'll be bringing you up to date on this story as we get further details now officials in hong kong are marking the 71st anniversary of the founding of the people's republic of china at a flag raising ceremony chief executive carrie lamb hailed her city's quote return to peace unquote she credited hong kong's strict new security long post by china with helping cautious massive pro-democracy protests that attests to relations with
