3:32 pm
wants this issue set. withth thehe government to . the opppposite side of thee chambeber the lead the opopposition jeremy corbett immediately tabled a motion of no confidence in mrsrs ms government had referred to the result as a catastrophic defeat. the last two years she's only had one priority the conservative party. ring ring civil. under no i'll cause reach the end of the line. she cannot seriously b belie that after two years of fighting via she's capable of negotiating a good deal for the people of this country. the most i important i issue facing us is that the government has lost the confidence of this house in this country. therefore misister speaker inform you live now tabled a motion of no confidence. let's go straight to a reporter kathy norris trenches been obobserving
3:33 pm
matters unfold at the british parliament she joins us now live from london catherine good evening to you tell us more. about the reaction where you are. well log when news filtered out off the house off commos to people at campaigning outside parliament here mostly yeah on t. brexit protest as well a huge cheer went up among the crowd of people here. very relieved a lot of ththm said thehey were overjoyoyey the scale of this result this moment motion being defected at being defeated rather excuse me by two hundred and thirty vovotes. is unprecedented in modernn british political historyry throughout the day we've had estimates c coming out aroud about the the scale of defeat to reason may was facing but no one was really predicting. a figure like that and it's hard to see now how to reason may you can conontine with this line going forward so none of these. at pro remain campaign as people i even joey tonight
3:34 pm
they say now they see the opening of a door from whihh also go fifty could be extended that britain. couldd baffle perhapsps have the time to work towards a second referendum on then perhaps vote to stay. in the european union so people had n naming does a t of uncertainty ahead but feeling more optimistic about the chances of f britn staying in the eu. than they were before this vote on reassured by the scale of theresa may's defeatats indeed t to a stuo imagery there are many doors opening now in many different ways b but the one that w will be walk through tomorrow is that one of the the no confidence motion which jeremy corbyn. has raised and table straight away in mrs mays government that so now should tool to be talked to talk through tomorrow. yes so another tough day in parliament for theresa may hawks on the heels of this. one the opppposition labor party hououse tabled a votef no confidence. but it's widely e expected
3:35 pm
thatat they weren't when not very that theresa may will stay at least for now in office because the name faulty quite simply don't have a majority in parliament to reasason may does on without our allies. of the d. u.. p. that nortrthern irish faulty they have said they will back her up. and even conservative hardline because the rebelss who defecteded to tonight ae saying that they will buckle up as well they don't want to see the labor party when this site of confidence in that full spock a general election. soso it looks like to reasoi will live to fight another day but the question then is what does she do from that she has three days in order to bring. a plan b. back to parliament so to o work out a way for what t the govovernment coud carry out a series of indicative thatt is to try and see iff there's a majority for anything here in the housese of cocommonst itit's really unprecedentedn the e way i h had. certainly doesn't look very k. from him. most trenton london stand by we'll come back to later thank you very m much indeed
3:36 pm
for that update on n the situtuation. wherere you are right outsie the houses of parliaiament ththeresa may suffer that? dented historic defeat b by two hundred andd thirty vots on her breakak thehe deal. let's get the analysis going for you tom burke joins us he's a do you know w all off the government law schooll and associate in the school of governmnments andnd international fast and i'm pleased to say. a frequent visitor to our channel thank you sir once again for b being with us. give us your reaction to the news from london -- well i think -- we're a all surprised stunnd that the prime minister lost but by how much losing by two hundred and thirty vote- something that -- no government has suffered - in our lifetimes - -- and i t think -- will should come as a body - really incredible is how -- whilile the g government isa minority government it does not commmmand a majority how
3:37 pm
withth its two u. p. supppporters might somehow. the whole parliament doesn't have some support of her for brexitit doesn't have supupt for her under biggest. plan better governmenent is thrown itself after two years it mehow can c can you mightt see as expected survrvive a no confidence. vote yet not having. ththe abilility to govern id that -- really incredible -- we're in uncharted territor. so what happens next to me now you don't have a crystal ball but certainly you'vee got a a certain amomot of ideas as to what you feel this could go. well what i expect iss t tt okay competence but will be defeated -- a big part of that reason. is becausese off thehe the consnservative party is not looking pretty good at ththe polls. there's a lot of f concern that the laboror -- might win or not will have - more minority government
3:38 pm
that's a the current government wants t to avoido the g general election is prprobably v very unlikely t i ththink will h happen -- given that the chance of reading. yourur i initiation with th. seems over is a a is a referendum a referendum on theresa may steal. or remaining -- i think that actualllly that could be a bit of a lifeline for theresa may still would offer her the opppportunityo go to the publilic.. and see if the public whihih supppported brexitt supports her version of brexit. and if they do who i think it would be a very powerful case in parliament to getting her plan through and britain might. reququire h having to ask te you to o delay b brexit by w weeks but migight be able to to to possibibly manage something almost on time. course the alternative is that britain could choose to remain -- and i think t that right now the tide is been for some months -- with with remain -- in the u. k. i wouldn'tt be
3:39 pm
surprised if -- today's vote was the was genenerally the the beginnig of the end. for brexit at least for now hehere in thek combustion is from durham schohool of law. the brexitit annouounces continue to bring you k know somemeone who's livived on f this story well. the longer than she has to remember and it's good to go even further cotton because in our e europe adddded to catherine good evening to you. pledge the see here face to face rather than down the line in brussels although i know you love brussels now than -- this was expecteted in s soe waway but it opens up a whoe different chamber of horrors victories medicine that. it really does i mean in a sense the only option that is our realistically on the table is no deal because they still has been rejected spots. you know as we've been hearing could that be a general election could there be another referendum could that be a stop to parks it all together. there a lot of voices calling for that this evening with what the mayor of london for example a nicholas dutch and the heaed
3:40 pm
of the s. and p. that the majority party in scotland thanks to the poconos who. fifty scott might be drug task instance well i'm but let'ss not forgett thatt the referendum result in twentny sixteen wawas a fifty one point 9%. in favor of leaving and a full set point 1% in favor of staying so you at in terms of the actual options that already planned the u. s. saying well w we're not going to renegotiate this deal. if you reject it t than you rejects it is -- if there's going to be any. new series of negotiations the u. k. out cold on school fifty that's reason may speaking to those very strict sort of hard brexit. at red lines ending f freedm of movovement coming out of the siningle m market the customs union that kind of thing so you at how we get to that point of the u. k. government changing its red lines. isn't clear at t this point said three mistakes wasn't saying -- early hours i think you noticed that -- that they're all going to be any of these indicative
3:41 pm
fights that people have been talking about sort of face on how many people one norwrway's type option how many people would second referendum. thisis theoretically now the days for a plann b. to be hatched. which seems incredibly ambitious given what you just t told us and given how things have developed. previously to get to this point definitely yes and so i'm well i mean. that is the intent -- u. k. aspects and then the u. k. negotiating with the european side aspects of course i'm theresa may eat at talking about -- you know listening to parliaments of the c. extreme k. messages being givenn this evening at and talking about -- you know speaking to all the members of the house so just hiring policy -- but once again in terms you the memessage that we're getting from the likes of dodon't know to this show closed janka at a menu and michael he's just been speaking briefly as saying. okay so you don't will this deal but please tell us what
3:42 pm
is your position sort out yoyour position decide what you want we cannot do anything until you tell us which direction you want to go in and that this is actually partly as well i think personally -- because i've seen the e. year was as sort of not wanting to be seen as pushing the u. k. into any one option or another -- and you know you saying to tell us what you want someone to o get * on that basis so yeah and then went back home just couple miminutes casing the easy os as far as it could with the current. withdrawal agreeeements maye person w will ask for a an extensionn. of the coup fifty now whether he's putting that out there is some maybe they well -- maybe he's going maybe you well. that's for other people. to taste. all in the us -- i suppose but this isn't the problem from the start has that what this breaks it represent what is actually being the people who voted on in the u. k.. and you spoke to and and i've met them to from the start has not what's it
3:43 pm
about about stop to the country there is some of the different aspects. and date m.. as you say it what was actually on the ballot paper was do you want to remain within the europeann union r do you want to leave the european union. and as he says how many different ways all of that to leaveve the european unin the remain option very to the status qua we maintain that. david cameron went to brussels negotiated the slightly different status for the u. k. that was what he was putting on the table but as a yes -- there were various different flavors of brexit that will put out that and there were many many different flavors of bricks at the different set pro brexit set voices -- espousing even now as you said there were the hard line voices that say we must and freedom of movement we need -- to have absbsolute say downo the the individual person who comes into the u. k. and he doesn't -- anand then there are others for example this as a an assumption that many members of the labor policy that
3:44 pm
would tense thing this is sosort of that this sort ofa lexus has they call them. left brexit as they see the european union as that too much globalization too much- hunting a house a big companies and trarade and wanting a brexitt soo that would protect workers rights against those aspecects that ththe these ons n necessariy coherence. at dimond's -- and in informal advice he said that he spoke to david cameron the day off to the brexit referendum. and and said to him i k. will you know you're not going to trigger thihis rigt now alall y you if you allll getting scared for the will of the people as indeed you should -- they think about that first decide what you want to negotiate. as we know you that'ss not entirely what happened it was i mean lost some of its reason may mice to get high cabinet briefly together. behind what was known as the check this plan which formed
3:45 pm
the basis of this now rejected withdrawn agreement ninetyty so the question is some dumb dumb show you can't answer becauause the questition is where. does the u. k. go from here and also been hearing there are many possible dolole's e could be opened -- some might be easy to go through the others but clearly there are so manyy optitions thatt n now preset themselves out one of those might be e second.. second r referendum o or it might not -- there was some different ways it could possibly go so let's talk about a possible second referendum. cocould that happen. it absolutely has happened it could in theory happen it's no it's it's one option that's reason may have at any point said that she would be a tool in favor of and we had we not hearing to reason may. at talking about that this evening however the labor policy the major position -- they have said yes we will save this no confidence motion asking him from catherine norris trends they would be expected. to lose last bus labor has said two things in the last few minutes they said well we don't just have to hold one a confidence motion we can
3:46 pm
hold a few. and they've also said that - even if they on the table including a second referendum it is official labor party policy since the most recent p party conferee so you have a second referendum as one of several possibilities labor. i think as you well know you i really try to balance the different factions of it saying policy here -- many many traditional like devivicesid votote to leave still want to leave the e. u. at say labor sayaying agn this is one of s several optitions -- moving past you slowly becausee somee people at bas indeed a at seems t take ths one step at a time but have a no confidence motion first see w where we e from here. and d do you feell that t te theree is the the willingnes in brussels to maybe sit down arounund a table and discuss this. in a different way because of the way hearing -- overall if you if you take it from the u. k. side you had the brussels of shuhut e door the same nothing else is no sign of the go see
3:47 pm
ation that but knowing people as you do in n brusss do you feel. that could be some kind of i don't know. them flexibility. well i think that said anyone is full of european music of that particularly since the financial crisis when i that the you can be extremely creative a coming up with solutions. at one time is pressing when solutions need to be found - that hasn't been much flexibility thus far in terms of ththe unity of the european side -- but yes it's any message that we've heard from theresa may many times i'm from european leaders are we looking for creative options flexible thinking with keeping all our minds open to all different kinds of the of options here. at thehe same time conversations with people. eat youu meets a not necessarily elected officials but says this isn't about thee european ststates he say of bricks it is not fininished yet havent you donone with that -- and i've says me personally felt like i've been picking up on a set amount of exasperation and impatience
3:48 pm
from donald tusk and jungle unica noticeably in their reactions. to that for a result this evening saying. you need to clarify what you actually wants -- so in terms of the e. u. wanting to kind of put out its own new options. we're not saying that at this point at the background to that probably being that- the you would much rather that the u. k. didn't leave a told you. but that's not something that that activelely working towards at this point so we're now waiting plan b. to reservrve a going awayy to e back. bang the heads of the cabinet together and come up with some better idea. we have no real idea what it's going to be doing at this point no i i mean that's's what all that all e money she come of life's of practice and it's i think what is going to be different -- over the next couplee of das probably is the fact that so we've been hearing this took a sort of cross policy. consultation -- weeds but i believe that sets reason search and i
3:49 pm
think that's on the agenda fofor tomorrow now - -- for example -- and getting that and trying to get that consensus within the u. k. parliament to think that something that says. that would be very much welcome to from the european union sites at that has bee- a lot of talk about the fight that says the vaccinations very much lead spotlights reason may and her brainerd finances rolls of fun. even the broad u. k. government less a leading u. k. parliament as a whole -- as we saw two of hiring brexit ministers resigned over the brexit d deal which seems very pararadoxical ift was basically that deal bus the impmplication being that it was. theresa may steal side from what we're hearing to reason may now looking out be owns that tight in a circle and and and asking. what kind of consensus could be found at that perhaps is anyoyone's guess at this po? katherine thank you. fofor talking is through all the options thank y you for your reporting blow b by blow wht happens really appreciate it and well i can say is that

3:54 pm
is the currency markets that's where we see ann immediate reaction other british kind of course plummeted after that referendum in twenty sixteen it's lost about 10% against the us dollar since last april. because of the ongoing uncertainty surroundingng ts process. know this really it's really was mostly week on monday as theresa may spoke but then reversed course after that vote was finally may seem like something of a surprise a little counterintuitive. but it could be because there's a bit of optimism suddenly that instead of political upheaval some new options might now be on the table. doing better against the you're of course which will also be affected by whatever outcome emerges. in the major european markets closed well before the vote had taken place they meant slight gains there. now with the exception of milan investors have largely priced in the loss already so we'll see just how sharp the shock is when european markets reopen on wednesday morning wall street meanwhile closed sharprply higher it was driven more by
