one of my bosses as ben johnson's had been a cop, and he -- i said, i have this weird idea that i should said, i think you'd be good. the department was forced to hire us, and because of all of the posters, and the big recruitment drive, we were under the impression that they were glad to have us, but in reality, most of the men did not want the women there. so the big challenge was constantly feeling like you had to prove yourself and feeling like if you did not do a good job, you were letting down your entire gender. finally took an inspector's test and passed that and then went down to the hall of justice and worked different investigations for the rest of my career, which was fun. i just felt sort of buried alive in all of these cases, these unsolved mysteries that there were just so many of them, and some of them, i didn't know if we'd ever be able to solve, so my boss was able to get me out of the unit. he transferred me out, and a couple of weeks later, i found out i had breast cancer. my intuition that the job was killing me. i ended up leaving, and by then, i had 28 years or the

saying that johnson has done what ben acts obliged him to do. all right so these 3 letters where does this then leave johnson's bragg's the deal well right now the plan is as far as i know is to bring back another meaningful vote on monday to bring in the legislation. and possibly have a vote on choose day now there are all sorts of permutations of calls because opposition m.p.'s avoid the argued we had this case before you can't just bring in the same deal for another votes so it's up to john burke or the speaker of the house to actually make that final decision but the way things look now we could see the education being tabled on monday for the votes are the choose day or wednesday that's the anticipation i think right now and what about the e.u. have we heard from them have they responded to this letter oh they've said that they will now consider their course of action and i think they'll probably take some time maybe a few days until they actually reach an agreement i think there are conflicting signals like the french president corps has al

this is business live from bbc news with ben bland and victoria fritz. boris johnson bbc news with ben bland and victoria fritz. borisjohnson has pitched a new blueprint for brexit but there arejust new blueprint for brexit but there are just two weeks before the crucial summit bill, so will it be enough to win over the eu? live from london, that is our top story on thursday the 3rd of october. brussels has reacted with dismay to the plans negotiated say they have already identified serious problems with boris johnson's already identified serious problems with borisjohnson‘s brexit plan. also trading blows. the us is to tax billions of dollars of european imports from single malts whiskey to oui’ imports from single malts whiskey to our lives, as it wings a decade—long dispute over state aid to adults. and a sell—off on the american and european stocks carried over to the asia—pacific session amid fears of the state of the global economy. this is the state of play in the first 31 minutes of trade here in europe. and we will be getting the inside track on the growing t

and they are quoting a former minister of education, ben bradshaw, from labour, calling johnson's offerhere are a lot of shall we say trust issues going on? politics, perhaps? in westminster but also more generally across europe, when it comes to this whole saga of british politics. absolutely, this isa british politics. absolutely, this is a german newspaper looking at what doing, and it has called the new proposal by borisjohnson as that of a scoundrel, rather than a serious offer. what this article did very well was looking beyond monday's election vote and basically saying that with that in mind, johnson has to come up with a new tactic to come out of this mess, which i think makes perfect sense. he has put this deal to parliament three times, sorry, the prospect of an election, three times. theresa may did the deal three times. but is that not the definition of madness, doing the same thing over and over again and not getting a different result? knowing you are not going to get a different result. they are bringing upa get a different result. they are bringing up a really good poin

suggestshe ben act boris johnson would have to look for an extension or go to a general election. are not seeing any movement. the irish minister just said, we are not closer on the british resolution, this idea of having borders five to 10 miles from the current board is no solution. so, what happens? of what isomplexity going on in parliament and with the supreme court, striking down the ben act, the opposition as governmentting on the opposition benches, dictating the government what it could do, this is an extraordinary development. but i look at it from the e.u.'s vantage point. they state everything on this idea on keeping the sanctity of the single market. but behind that is there calculation that when push comes to shove, the u.k. would stall. the more likely it is the e.u. will stick to their guns. here is where the rubber hits the road, as "a to the european council meeting on october 31, it is convinced that there will be a crash out. achieve any of their aims, regarding protecting the single market and making sure there is no friction at the irish border, they will be

conservative all over let when the let one amendment backs up their previously passed ben law requiring mr johnson to write to the e.u. to request an extension and ensure a no deal bragg's it does not happen significant numbers of the parliament clearly felt the amendment was needed to prevent a break out push toward or no deal exit by mr johnson and heartbreaks it allies clearly keen to preserve their prerogative as in the process the parliamentarians rebuff the pm again on monday with speaker john bercow denying the government a meaningful vote until tuesday. these summary today's mission is in substance the same assess it or use motion out of the house has decided the matter today the circumstances are in substance the same a set of very circumstance. my ruling is there the motion will not be debated today as it would be. disorderly to do so. protests rocked the spanish speaking world over the weekend and into monday a state of emergency was declared in the capital city of santiago chile after the student movement led protests against austerity measures specifically an increase in public transp

let's get the latest from ben brown at westminster. yes, boris johnsonstmas election today — he's told jeremy corbyn to ‘man up' and accept a snap election on december 12th. for his part, mr corbyn has said he'll only agree to an election if the prime minister takes a no—deal brexit off the table. meanwhile, eu ambassadors met in brussels today to discuss what sort of brexit extension they should allow — they agreed in principle there should be a delay, but not how long it should be. france is arguing for a shorter extension — other eu countries want a longer one, and there won't be a final decision till next week. here's our political correspondent nick eardley and his report does contain some flash photography. it goes on. a prime minister who can't force brexit through, facing mps determined to keep control of the process. can it continue? he thinks not and says a few days more scrutiny for his deal and then a general election are the way out. i think for mps across the house to have any credibility about delivering brexit, they now have to commit to

for over a fortnight now that donald sorry not donald tusk that boris johnson would attempt to circumvent the intention of the ben act to send a letter asking for an extension would try to circumvent the effect of that act by sending a 2nd letter and number 10 had been paying its cards very close to its chest but that's exactly what they did late on saturday night they effectively photocopied the letter that had been set out word for word in that ben act which passed the legislation demanding that boris johnson ask the european union for an extension to the british deadline but they attached to that photocopy a letter from the a senior civil servant saying that look this letter is just being sent to you because we have to by law and then let the main letter written by boris johnson and signed by boris johnson actually said look we i still think it's a very bad idea if you grant us next tension and essentially he was trying to dissuade the european union from granting that extension so as far as the government is concerned despite the requirement to send a letter asking for an extension and despite the vote in the

johnson. our political correspondent, ben wright, has been looking at what might happen in the days and monthsnever tire of saying it's time to get brexit done, but leaving the eu was always going to be a hugely complex and time consuming process, and it is farfrom being over. this is how the next few days and even years might unfold. borisjohnson and the eu have agreed a new withdrawal agreement — the terms of divorce. the prime minister wanted mps to approve it in principle today, but they haven't. and so, after this setback for the government, it needs to change tack again. next week ministers will publish the withdrawal agreement bill — that is the legislation which puts the deal into law. expect an early battle over its timetabling, as well as its content. there will be many votes over many days, and the government may even ask mps to back the brexit deal in principle again, as soon as monday. the government still wants the bill to be law by october 31st and for the uk to leave the eu then, but after today all that could slip. let's look even further ahead. a whole new phase of brexit wil

ben brown. boris johnson has been accused of engaging in a "stupid blame game" by the european council presidentkely" in a phone call this morning. at 8am. labour says the government is trying to sabotage the negotiations. our political correspondent nick eardley reports. is today the day the wheels came off boris johnson's brexit plan? ministers arriving for cabinet this morning with the prospect of a breakthrough increasingly slim. are the brexit talks on the brink of collapse? perhaps gone completely. everyone wants a deal, they would like to have a deal, but the eu needs to know we are absolutely ready without a deal and we will leave on the 31st. is it possible we'll have no deal on the 31st? everything is possible. brussels do deals when things go down to the wire, the offer is there and it is up to them to take it. number ten says the german chancellor angela merkel told mrjohnson a new deal is overwhelmingly unlikely and one would only be possible if northern ireland stayed in a customs union. the german government has not confirmed that is it to you, confirmed what was said, number ten

ben sasse and susan collins, have broken ranks with their party to criticise donald trump. the majority though have remained silent or supportive. one of those defending the president was republican senator ron johnson of wisconsin. in a heated interview on sunday, the chairman of the committee on homeland security stated that he had no trust in us intelligence agencies, such as the fbi and cia: ijust want the truth. the american people want the truth. so do you not trust the american...? do you not trust the fbi? you don't trust the cia? no — no, i don't. i'm just very confused here. absolutely not. you don't trust either of those agencies? after obstructing lisa page? 0k. joining us now from washington is former cia operative lindsey moran. good to have you with us. you had the chair of the homeland security committee, someone who is tasked with keeping america safe, does not trust the fbi or the cia, he fundamentally believes there is deep state working to get rid of the president. and really, that goes to

legal experts here have been looking at the ben law that was passed in september that forces them to do this and they didn't find the loophole that boris johnson seems to suggest is there somehow but maybe he is just taking it literally because it is not personnel says her only him in person that needs to do it he can for instance tell his ambassador in brussels to write this letter or even the speaker of 2 the commons here behind us could do this if court of law for instance would ask him so maybe just somebody else will write that letter for him and boris johnson can say it was me. the legal challenge to this is already been prepared court in scotland has already taken on the case and it's just waiting for monday if worse johnson hasn't done until then they will everybody expected to happen they will probably oblige him to do it right now call what does this delay mean for the e.u. would the e.u. consider another extension at this point i mean i think the key thing to keep in mind here is it's absolutely not in the interest of the european union to be the supposedly cause of the. just crashing out of the e.u. with no deal they don't want to

intervening period b, this is very interesting, the parliamentary act that is the ben act could then force on that day boris johnsonnd a letter to the eu asking for an extension. and, of course, an extension of the article 50 process, but how long will that extension be? anything from a few weeks to several months as well that's, of course, if the eu agree to it. so to have a queen's opening -- queen speech opening of parliament laying out all kinds of things on immigration, on national health service, on crime, a franchises, on the mental health act, all kinds of things to have that lay out the agenda for the next year plus we heard this morning that the chancellor is going to have a budget, post-brexit budget on november 6th it all seems optimistic and perhaps in this extraordinary time frame that is the brexit, that is ambitious, i tell you. >> you know what, steve, you broke it down for us so well and helped investors really grasp what is at stake here. huge week coming up for the uk as steve just said, the uk chancellor says a new budget will be delivered within weeks of a potential no-deal brexit and announce

very determined boris johnson that rob can johnson simply ignore the vote number he has a rather interesting interpretation of the law he is legally bound by the ben act to see an extension by the end of the working day to day. from what i hear former red government lawyers have already sprung into action of trying to explore legal loopholes one idea apparently is that the next summit where they may discuss an extension. of the u.k. would simply not fill the thing in the chair they have not attended summits another brother had an idea for the more pressure on them is to maybe veto the e.u. budget which is also now also up for discussion so. it'll be interesting to say what pans out over the next 40 hours before we see it the most being tackled again on monday legislation being discussed. parenting from what i've read and heard is that someone please would you use monday's sitting in parliament to bring in further. amendments yet another twist and is apparently one of the possible amendments could be then to try and force a 2nd if the friendlies vote so i think right now everyone is trying to you know spring into action to try and make strong that
