whereas ursula very is.h and citizens' rights and there is the answer were straightaway and she did not have one. she's varied across the details. he did a stage invasion, it was hilarious. the new year's challenge was can you deliver a sentence without quoting or mentioning barnier. fairenough. that heat storm the stage orjust walk up to it? my favourite bit of the whole royal visit was when she went into downing street and borisjohnson showed her into the room and headed for the armchairs for the slightly awkward chat these people have to do and showing they are friendly and we have this conversation about how they quote unquote went to school together. so one of those moments where, with he telling a lie orjust wanted it to be true so that showed they were good friends? a fresh new start? introduced that marvellous playground export of british bulldog or someone arm got broken. he saw him charging down that japanese school kid in the rugby match. a fiend. does anyone have any old film of the playground of

ursula vicki young is there. von der leyen is the new woman ursula von der leyen is the new woman that that borisjohnson has to do business with, taking overfrom jean—claude juncker. she was business with, taking overfrom jean—claudejuncker. she was talking pretty tough today. this meeting was described as an introductory meeting between the two. earlier ursula von der leyen talked about a very close friendly relationship between the uk and the eu after the uk leaves at the end of january. and the eu after the uk leaves at the end ofjanuary. that and the eu after the uk leaves at the end of january. that didn't mean that she wasn't pointing out the difficulties there were going to be, and the us talked a lot about this timetable with borisjohnson saying very clearly this has to be sorted out by the end of the year. we will go into this transitional implementation period at the end of january, once the uk leaves. nothing much really changes, but already the british governance saying very clearly there was no way that transition period is going to be extended. in the eu, many people thin

i thinkl said ursula. she's not ursula.a speech at the lsc where she studied in the late 19705, and she said for her the withdrawal agreement, you know all of this leaving that is done and dusted. i thought again like that feeling today when i'm going to say this, even though we've discussed this before that we won't say it. the fact that it sailed through like that today is coming you do take, for all of them we followed every 22nd of it. it's a bit the same in the commission president says done and dusted chemical let's move on. if you like wow, that was three years, three torturous big years and now that door is closing and everyone is moving on by the end of this month. although they still have to work out how to implement the northern ireland bit. that will be done in parallel to trade talks. that was going to make this year so complicated. but that's the essential question that's been hovering over this. that we have so enjoyed chewing over. will this happen or not? yeah, it's happening. it's done. what, it's not as g

europe aims to become a pioneer, says eu commission president ursula von der leyen.ith her european green deal, she wants to make the continent the first to achieve carbon neutrality. >> the novelty and the difference to our fossil fuel-based model is that we will foster growth that is not extracting resources, but that gives back to the planet more than it takes away from it. reporter: just before his departure, u.s. president trump surprised the participants with a different topic. he called for a new trade agreement with the eu, threatening to impose trade sanctions on car imports. >> they have trade barriers where you cannot trade. they have tariffs all over the place. they make it impossible. they are, frankly, more difficult to do business with than china. reporter: following the trade agreement with china, trump has his sights firmly set on the eu. brent: now to the united states, and the impeachment trial of president donald trump. the republican-controlled senate is now hearing opening arguments from house impeachment managers. trump was impeached last month

wasnow ursula von der leyen in london yesterday and met with boris johnson.plicit about the fact you cannot get a big comprehensive deal done in one year. that is simply impossible. according to her, it is not going to happen in the u.k. will have to decide if they just want to get a very basic deal or agrees toson actually negotiate with more time. this is something i hear time after time in brussels, but we heard it from ursula von der leyen yesterday, that the europeans believe the u.k. needs to stay closely aligned to european rules and that will be problematic. yesterday we heard from downing street he still wants to get the trade deal done in one year, though the prime minister has no intention of extending that transition period beyond the one year and he still believes he can get a deal similar to that of canada where most goods are tariff free, though that was a deal that took years to make. europeans at this point are skeptical this can get done in such an ambitious way in such a short amount of time. i take it from that it is not a question of copy

that is ursula von der leyen. she is meeting brycejohnson at later that is ursula von der leyen.st peeking there at the london school of economics where she described her year that she spent the at the start of her speech but obviously the parts that are keen to pay attention to our what she was saying about brexit and what shape the deal might be with the european union for some she said they will go as far as they can but the partnership cannot and will not be the same as before, it will not be as close as before inevitably, she said each side will do what is best for them. she said, said each side will do what is best forthem. she said, the said each side will do what is best for them. she said, the more divergence there is, the more distance the partner to will inevitably be and she also talked about the deadline of next december for a deal and the government's position here not to have any extension even if a deal isn't agreed by then. she said without an extension they cannot expect to agree on everything from that there are questions now been put to her so let's have a lis

. >> reporter: there was an important number this this story that motivated ursula and robert to oro to go for a third baby after having two daughters. >> our last name means third. we had a game back and fort worth that we should shoot for third child. >> reporter: ursula's father died last week in pick rnicarag. >> it is crazy. people die, and then we have new life. he was looking forward to meeting his new grandson but he is looking from up above. >> reporter: the family is happy their son is healthy and they hope for happier times in the new decade. >> meet george charles shackleton. >> hi, charlie. >> reporter: 40 minutes later it was a first in san francisco. george charles shackleton was born. the baby was due on christmas eve but his mom said he had plans of his own. >> he decided to take his time, and just after midnight he decided he was ready to come. he was the one who decided he wanted to be the first baby in san francisco. >> he got that title, right? there was only one first baby, of course, but there were six total babies born last night at the kaiser hospital in san

ursula von der leyen speaking in london earlier today.tpm but we will pause and have a look at the weather. we are not without some rain, we have had some heavy showers and brisk winds blowing through scotland, northern ireland and northern england but at least between the showers there is some sunshine. more limited further south, it is brighter however the cloud as thickening now and it will bring more rain back into the south—west as we go towards the evening rush hour so a rather wet end to the day here. at least it is still relatively mild whilst further north, the sunshine makes it noticeably colder than yesterday and it will be a colder night. the big talking point of the rain coming into the south or the strength of the winds. we will certainly see a significant rain across england and wales, 20 to 30 millimetres and there's the potential for some very windy weather which is giving us a headache at this short time ahead as to how deep that low pressure will be and how strongly ones will be but they have the potential to be lively

the euros are real quick where boris johnson is now hosting the european commission president ursula van de laine as well to do. so now given that these talks are going to be very crucial because the u.k. is still set to leave the e.u. come january 31st so what can we expect to come out of these negotiations with a couple of things actually i think it was the daily express who was saying that you should expect a love from boris johnson i mean it's a very different situation than it was a treat to me of course is empowered we all know that he had an 80 seat majority in the recent election he is very empowered by the british public to do as he says he's going to do he ran on a no nonsense exit from the e.u. so he's running on the there will be a brics it on january 31st now ursula von laden on the other hand obviously being german she's actually a doctor and a mother of 7 so any woman that has a mother of the mother of 7 children so you can negotiate but what she's there to do obviously even though she's with the you one thing that's very interesting as she work with ankle morkel for s

we heard from ursula von der leyen or lion that -- ursula von der leyen that the new and u.k. cooperate. bet should europe's response on the middle east? robert: the europeans have to get together and figure out how to create a more stable environment in the region, and work with the united states on iran rather than have this big rift on iran. i don't know how that is done in an environment where they have views onally different lots of things. been.s. and e.u. have cooperative in a lot of areas in the middle east. that strategic cooperation seems to have evaporated. britain and the continent have to get together, but there needs to be some effort -- you have got to stabilize iraq. we forget about this, jordan can be vulnerable. jordan is critical and support for jordan is essential. ,ebanon is right on the edge and the europeans have much more influence on lebanon than the u.s. we have to work with them on this, so all these areas are in a state of flux. the u.s.-europe divide does not help. tom: we are out of time. ambassador hormats, thank you for joining us. christopher r

so he's running on the there will be a brics it on january 31st now ursula von laden on the other hand was he being german she's actually a doctor and a mother of 7 so any woman that has a mother of is a mother of 7 children so you can negotiate but what she's there to do obviously even though she's with the you one thing that's very interesting as she worked with uncle immokalee for so many years and her cabinet she's very familiar with the pressure from german industries to to make a deal so both parties don't want to have a crushing out they don't want to sit neither party wants to have to go turn to the w t o she can stand and so what i predict is both want to come out saving face so he wants to come out definitely by the january 31st the reason the e.u. and slow want to want the exit of the great britain to stay in is because of course dues are 11000000000 if they can in any way extend the u.k. staying in the e.u. they will retain that 11000000000 in fees those $11000000000.00 all going to be replaced by any nation so ho job is to make this a smooth transition show. try to extend

what i was pleased about was to see there had been a good first meeting between ursula von der leyenident trump. off onetter to start good footing. there will be difficult relationships going forward and points of negotiations that will be hard. you know, whether that's trade, tax, technology, energy. there are multiple topics. europe and the united states have been friends for a long time. it will not go away. in many instances, they have joint interests. europe operates on different values and different systems. that needs to be secured and preserved. biggestariffs the concern that you see for the european economy? madame lagarde: it is a big concern, let's face it. there is a trade entry europe -- that will notand be affected. trade with the united states would be affected if there was a sudden rise on tariffs, yes, or a tariff war. tit-for-tat. that will operate as a break on the economy. >> you have done a number of public events in the last couple of weeks. what concerns do people raise with you? madame lagarde: you know, it varies. family members, they say, explain what you do

boris johnson and ursula von der leyen set out rival red lines for their vision of a post-brexit dealritain will not stay aligned to eu deals, which i feel like was the point of the whole thing. saying it der leyen will be impossible to get a full deal by johnson's end of year deadline. redlines have been set. aside from those that are perfectly obvious and that we already know about, what are they? right.that's they are obvious, but it is significant that ursula von der leyen and her first trip to london, first time she met with the prime minister since taking office made it clear in a way explicit.credibly it is a question of priorities. did stress one thing you hear many times, the idea of alignment. you can go completely away from european rules, standards, and regulations, and second, she said she would not do anything that could hurt the single market. it is still the crown jewel for the european union. it binds everyone together and we have to protect it, but this trade deal in one year is impossible and they do not think as the eu that it can be done. perhaps it is a political

the new president of the european commission, ursula von der leyen, has arrived in downing street for the free movement of capital, goods and services. without a level playing field on environment, labour, taxation and state aid, you cannot have the highest quality access to the world‘s largest single market. the more divergence there is, the more distant the partnership will be, and without an extension of the transition period beyond 2020, you cannot expect to agree on every single aspect of our new partnership. we will have to prioritise. the european union‘s objective in the negotiations are clear. we will work for solutions that uphold the integrity of the european union, its single market and its customs union. there can be no compromise on that. about 9,000 nurses across northern ireland have begun a 12—hour strike over pay and staffing levels. more than 2,000 appointments and procedures have been cancelled. the heads of northern ireland‘s health trusts have warned that the strike could tip services over the edge. pat cullen, director of the royal college of nursing in northern

with respect, mrjunker, your successor as the president of the commission, ursula von der leyen, shey difficult, highly unlikely, that a deal will be done by the end of 2020. so what's going to happen? knowing the technical difficulties we're facing, i think she's right. it's not for sure we will be able, both the british and the european union, to conclude a full—fledged deal before the end of the deal and borisjohnson has the choice from now untiljune to either ask for a longer period or to try to assist in his wish to conclude a deal before the end of the year. if it is possible, it is fine, but if it is not possible, if we are left with unclear rules that people don't understand then it would be better to prolong. he has written into law that there will be no extension. do you think he's bluffing? no, i don't think so but if you are unilaterally are writing in a law that this must be done from now to that, what is that? a negotiation position, blackmail, what is that? what is that? you think his determination to end this process by december 2020 is a form of blackmail? no, becaus

the last couple of days despite these dramatic developments overnight european commission president ursula vonder line called an urgent cabinet meeting this morning which had already been scheduled and she came out of it with no condemnation of the iranian missile strikes and that's something that will not be well received in washington several european union governments have condemned the airstrikes but not the european commission nor the european council at this point so i think that will be something that will be noticed will be noticed by the trump administration now what live under alliance says is that the e.u. has a long tradition of keeping communications open in the region of course they do have direct talks with the iranian regime and that is what she says are going to be the immediate plans of the e.u. . come crisis deeply affect not only the region but all of us and the use of weapons must stop now to give space to a dialogue. we are lucky hold upon to do everything possible to rekindle talks and there cannot be enough of that european union in its own way has a lot to offer. w
