was triggered on march twenty ninth two years ago the article fifty process is now underway and in accordance with the wishes of the british people the united kingdom is leaving the european union so many promises made and shattered since then it's within our grasp to leave with a deal on the twenty ninth of march on the twenty ninth of march on the twenty ninth of march with a deal with a deal on the twenty ninth of march we will be leaving the e.u. on the twenty ninth of march two thousand and nineteen is eleven pm a declaration made no once not twice but prime minister in this house has said on one hundred times that we will be leaving the european union on the twenty ninth of march what do you think the days going to be remembered by now how we didn't leave here. today we were supposed to leave in the european union but we're not. personally as opposed to foreign which. is a day we should blame twenty ninth for the mess that we've made of bricks march

twenty ninth well it's a perfectly good day would personally like to come up with a new day. that's got the whole idea of yeah entry voted to leave the european union whether agree with it or not most the door across a choice march twenty ninth was meant to be the grand departure of the u.k. from the e.u. with hopes of a brand new future ahead instead breck's it is now a saga so lengthy and convoluted it's hard to keep track of all the plot twists with the deadline of the final chapter now postponed due to chaos how this all plays out is only yet to be figured out reporting from london and. with our. meanwhile to mark the day that should have been one museum in southwest england decided to bring out a banksy classic for a public display the controversial work by the celebrated british street artist all that monkeying around fair comment or not see what you think. here are some of the

a european commission want off thirty nine billion pounds they would do everything to keep us in this is not a deal worth it it's a very bad deal. for instate stuck by the e.u. it's a bad deal we should leave without it do you want w t o terms international relation experts on scared says teresa mayes days as leader are numbered. well she's very vulnerable she's already said she's going to go. nearly everyone is expecting a totally didn't she predicted in the near future and she said she would go more to us immediately if a deal of possible which was and so that she's still a rod but she's lost all realists or she can rejoice in the cold when she can't control what happens in the house of commons she can't control her own cabinet members of hoops just go their own way and vote it's a please. see that she really is a lame duck prime minister however. you know she's there i thought she could remain

there until december but that depends will the captain it get together decide to tell it to go all together. after another stinging defeat theresa may hopes to bring her deal to parliament for a fourth attempt that vote is expected next week. he. breaks it count down. two years of investigation and one key revelation donald trump did not collude with russia in the two thousand and sixteen election the four page summary of special counsel robert muller support says that no further indictments will be made that's led the president to claim total exoneration despite that the report does maintain that the kremlin carried out cyber activities aned at influencing the election but according to the u.s. secretary of state that's not the full extent of moscow's meddling and american affairs mike compare claimed on wednesday that russia has interfered in every u.s.

presidential vote since two thousand and four and a staff reports. for two years they dug and dug investigated and question who was a hook for the style if you only knew just how much could lose and that was in the past do you believe russia interfered with the twenty sixteen u.s. general election yes they did in the two thousand and twelve and the two thousand and eight thank you and the loser than we are that's a bold claim especially given the evidence he mentioned he didn't mention in the evidence begs the question of course why washington waited for more than a decade to say sue but there could be a simple explanation the presidents before trump would get this compromised agents russian agents and concrete to miss the pompei oh i have evidence it's

so obvious if you think about it let's go back russia meddled and one year election for barack obama. how else could you explain a bomb as little microphone slip where he was caught red handed reporting to putin. that for that it was george bush who russia put into the white house twice in two thousand and two thousand and four look at them together putin and bush all that touching and feeling hugs and shakes romantic almost and don't get me started about the eyes and looked the man in the eye i. was able to. get a sense of his soul and you want to tell me that bush wasn't

a russian stooge come on get real as red as a cherry and that's just the last few presidents this meddling goes back decades reagan who presided over the collapse of the u.s.s.r. was also compromised this is all just part of the plan i mean what kind of sick man a traitor makes a whole beat of collecting and translating russian jew and then posting about it the story was an american in a russian arguing about their two countries and the americans said look in my country i can walk into the oval office i can pound the president's desk and say mr president i don't like the way you're running our country and a russian said i can do this i can go into the crim and of the general secretary's office own his disk and say mr general secretary i don't like the way president reagan is running used but. russian meddling is obvious it is going on for more

than a hundred years abraham lincoln surprise was a russian agent why do you think russia sent. two fleets of warships to new york and san francisco in a show of support for him and the unionists during the american civil war the coming of the russian fleets was decisive in helping lincoln get through the last and most serious threat of angle of french intervention you don't hear much about that and for good reason you need to leave evidence lying about say that comrie lincoln rest in peace lennon's blessings be upon him there you have it concrete proof of president after president being russian agents you got it right mr pompei oh about the whole russia meddling meanwhile moscow says that it has long expressed its willingness to discuss any concerns are alleged election meddling and also says

that the russia collusion theme has been driven slowly by internal us political few . president trump who did this week that those who spread misinformation and fig news on cruising with russia could face serious repercussions or online show in. tongue in cheek look at that. in case you missed it and americans are struggling to deal with the most terrible news that president is not a russian spy. after years of rice lying around in donald trump's do you vs past special counsel robert mueller has concluded that he did not collude with the russians to win the election in twenty sixty this is left many americans facing an uncomfortable truth they may have elected overlord the old fashioned way this. way which they did the hunt is used undermined the one thing very that was keeping the democrats and the paranoid liberals for having

a collective breakdown the belief that trump is most days my. special counsel couldn't find any evidence he can of been looking back if he just spend less time searching for facts and more time watching cable news channels and reading newspapers he was found legions of experts with loads of incriminating speculation he could have used but the whole process was not a waste of time the whole report hasn't been released yet but here is what we definitely know. the media reports uncovered trove of fake news but not from russian clip farms no t.v. screens across america day off to day the trunk pages were promised a metaphorical lynching by the rachel maddow and the m.s.m. b.c.'s of the world. next accuses the mainstream media of lying you are. going to have people believe. the media's.

the signing triggered a wave of protests across syria on tuesday including and aleppo and damascus the country's two largest cities. it also drew the ire of u.n. security council members even washington's closest allies have emphatically rejected the move saying it sets a dangerous precedent. this decision is of critical critical strategic and security importance to the state of israel the decision by the united states to recognize the israeli substantive over the golan heights is in contravention of security

council resolution four nine seven like you should we are concerned that this unilateral decision not only complicates the prospect of finding a comprehensive settlement in the middle east is that would lead to instability in the region trumpeted in the strait apparently wants to show some generosity towards israel we would suggest the americans not to lay their hands on what is not theirs the golan heights either it will always be even heard of sovereign territory this is their plate many others it has taken before all showed their willingness of the united states to honor reality on the ground we asked israeli scholar mordechai katter and investigative journalist mike ready for their views on the move. there's a couple of dangers one that that does set really dangerous precedent any one any country can take another land by force but it's also. i can trump look very all solution is to he's on his own here really just israel and one or two other
