. -- borisnson's morris johnson's moment of truth, new brexit deal plan for the european union this weekfor the last couple of hours is under quite a lot of pressure, trading 122.32. we are still with paul sheard. i will not ask you to predict the outcome on brexit because that is anybody's guess right now, and far too tricky to do. talk about the damage the ecb has done to the british economy. the risk is uncertainty. there is so much uncertainty surrounding britain at the moment. greatness -- british businesses don't know what to do. how long with that effect last if we were to find any solution? is a solution better than more uncertainty? paul: i think that is almost definitional. the effect of the brexit uncertainty on the economy really comes through the business investment channel. we are talking about was sort of arrangements would be used for to operate under in the future? not just for the e.u., but for the rest of the world? if you try to make investment decisions about where to locate equipment and businesses as part of manufacturing, value change, or even for the future of lo

deal and also whether it's a deal, or simply a press release, and my real worry is that what morris johnsonpress release that says i've been to the european union, they have agreed this rough outline, and i'm now asking parliament to vote for that. that i think would be completely unacceptable. and certainly, there will be opportunities to table amendments to that, and i hope that one of those will be a people's vote amendments, because i think that is the way out of this almighty mess that we've got ourselves into in the la st that we've got ourselves into in the last three years. and that people's vote amendment, that would be in line with the amendment you've already put forward , amendment you've already put forward, attached to the queen's speech. yes come as a party, we have consistently come at every opportunity, created that people's vote moment which we can use should the opportunity or the need arise, and that is what we are doing for the queen's speech, but also we have the queen's speech, but also we have the potential to do that for boris johnson's saturday debate, if indeed, t

morris johnson has momentum behind him. on an election, he will get some of those brexit party voters. however, they have also been bidding for labor leave of voters. i think he will win some and lose some. nejra: we talked about cable and where we see that going. a lot of people are saying euro-dollar to get a lift on positive news. but what happens to eurosterling? valentin: from a valuations point of view, 1.04 is where sterling will stabilize some not far from here even with a deal. the main driver is the fact that the euro will also benefit from any potential resolution. fact being, the engine of the eurozone economy, germany, has been suffering disproportionately. because of the trade work but also brexit given the exposure to the u.k. economy. if that risk of bates, you could argue -- abates, you could argue that could help the economy. they could also argue for less monetary stimulus and given that we have some underway come it could bode well for the currency from here. euro-dollar higher on the back of that, so bo

ruled out the idea of any time limit to the so—called backstop, so they would have a problem if morris johnsonuld be a four—year period after which stomont we get a vote. i would imagine that they have a problem with stormont having a veto over the whole process in effect. it doesn't seem to me that this is really a basis for an agreement, if it is, then in the eu would really have to back down in quite a dramatic fashion. we are expecting to hear from borisjohnson. let's show you the doors where we are expecting him to arrive, we will bring you his arrival and speech as soon as it happens. the duchess of sussex is suing the mail on sunday over a claim it unlawfully published a private letter she sent to her father, thomas markle. the royal couple are carrying out engagements on the final day of their tour of southern africa — here visiting an entrepreneurs hub in johannesburg. the legal action comes after the mail on sunday published a handwritten letterfrom meghan to herfather, thomas markle, sent shortly after she and prince harry got married. the case alleges misuse of private information,

morris, bbc news. our assistant political editor, norman smith, is in manchester. it is certainly complicated stuff, the prime minister says he is confident, does he have reason to be? boris johnsonobably just as well. be? boris johnson is an optimist and probablyjust as well. it is not obvious to many people how these proposals are going to fly. the problem is this, the eu's position is they don't want anything to change on the island of ireland and they want life to stay as is without any economic disruption and without any economic disruption and without any checks at all. the position of borisjohnson is, any checks at all. the position of boris johnson is, we any checks at all. the position of borisjohnson is, we are leaving the eu, we want our own trade policy and that means our own customs regime and that means customs checks. but don't panic, these will be very, very softly, softly customs checks, you will hardly notice them. most of them, he says can be carried out in them, he says can be carried out in the depots and warehouses before the lorries even leave for the border. and where there have to be inspections, that will be up to the customs authorities, they can do the

johnson is on to win this election, the stakes are still enormously high for him. it will be a remarkable contest to watch unfold. thank you, normal. —— norman. our reality check correspondent chris morrisst. what is the pass for brexit now or the path. in it? which number one, have an election and hope it produces a majority for someone and hope it produces a majority for someone to give more clarity. the government tried to call an election yesterday via the fixed—term parliaments act but it needed a two thirds majority in the house of commons but it did not get one. the next option is to change the law with this 19 bill which any needs a simple majority of mps to hold an election in december. a bill like this could be amended and until mps voted later we just don't know if it will pass. if there was an election on any date in december, what then? if the conservatives won and got themselves a working majority, they would have the numbers to push their version of brexit through on or before january the 31st. any other result, and labour victory perhaps ora hung result, and labour victory perhaps or a hung parliament where there was no majority to leave, we could be looking at a further

morris is there now. i suppose all eyes on brussels will be on the commons tomorrow. what will their reaction be, what will be the eu's perspective if boris johnsonrow? it is interesting. about 12 hours after borisjohnson interesting. about 12 hours after boris johnson left this interesting. about 12 hours after borisjohnson left this building other leaders are still talking about brexit, even though i suspect they would rather be talking about something else. emmanuel macron has given a press conference in the last couple of minutes. he says he hopes the deadline of october the 31st holds and went on to say, i can't predict the future but i don't think any other delay should be given. what he didn't say was, i would be to another extension which is a very different thing. we have to bear in mind any run—up to the previous deadline march the 29th he was making similar points. we should not extend, in the end he did. it is bubbling around, there is a little bit of pressure being put there from the french president on those who seek to thwart boris johnson's the french president on those who seek to thwart borisjohnson‘s deal but i suspect if push
