the bells hold for bracks it now is left to the u.k. to find a new place in the world separate from its former european partners. but for now nothing really changes for the next 11 months the u.k. remains subject to european union regulations and standards during that transition period britain and the e.u. will try to negotiate a new relationship with the aim of voting a new deal breaks at the end of this year the time is not on their side. it's a race against time. the u.k. and the e.u. have until the end of 2022 to find their new post brecht's that relationship and there's still a long way to go so one of the issues that need sorting trade is the biggest one i think the trade relation between the 2 how are we going to trade with each other are we going to have tariffs or are we not going to have types in the way that we have changed goods and services that's going to be i think the biggest thing to do a successful outcome on this key issue will depend on the u.k. agreeing to the e.u.'s calls for a level playing field the e.u. wants th

honestly elected in may of 2019 madrid was one of 73 british any piece in the current cohort with bracks it that term ends on the 31st of general now he'll have to find a new job for himself and his staff. before he was elected to the european parliament majid was lord mayor of the northern british city of sheffield born in somalia but it came to the u.k. as a child refugee he started his political career and 2014 joining the green party where he promoted an open european migration policy my campaign slogan was. immigrants make britain rare i thought i was. out in. the town where immigrants will use girls. i will call even economically culturally every aspect of immigrants really enrich. this is exactly the opposite of what his compatriots from the back said party the largest group of british m.p.'s have been campaigning for while they're celebrating their success and he'd hopes the transition period which is set to last till the end of the year will provide an opportunity to work out what the future relationship will actually look like. we've got no choice europe the european union is o

but bracks it is like nigel who fought a long campaign to take the u.k. out of the e.u. set triumphalist tone. i believe here's the really. crazy moves and there's 3 i. as the day dawned on a new u.k. the newspaper headlines marked the moment in history and almost half a century of e.u. u.k. corporation but the nation is far from united some voice their sense of loss it's a great tragedy. for my life a bit in the european union my father my grandfather fortune was in europe we thought that was all over we thought we would be one continent keys. in harmony and now it feels to me. it was a fearless peaceful as it should be while others felt for the vigor what some called freedom or excitement returning to the days before the e.u. . i feel absolutely delighted it's probably one city people should and i feel that's probably peculiar to my generation but if we live to move to push english it's undeniable that bret's it has exposed a huge division in british politics but the show of the nation and tribalism in the u.k. on this the point of departure from the e.u. indicates tha

time for so-called bracks it is like nigel for russia who fought a long campaign to take the u.k. out of the e.u. it was an historic day the decades he held a minority view but with britain's exit he led the celebrations at the nation's departure. i made a story i. tried to move in the movie history of my. time but the nation is far from united in joy at the move. from e.u. supporters gathered outside the scottish parliament here in adams and in other parts of the u.k. there was sadness a majority of scots voted to stay in the e.u. but their voice is being ignored in westminster. i think it's because me 62 percent of us fortitude and then in europe and they're being dragged out against our will it's absolutely a disgrace. sorrow in brussels to hear and in other cities on the continent young press. since rallied their future less certain and their vision of a nation at home in europe seemingly defeated. the great. thank you. to. rex it has exposed a huge division in british politics but the show of emotion and trifle isam in the u.k. on its point of departure from the e.u. indicate

bracks it and so it's not. in a case of that and it's actually sort of you unify and the country to some extent this election has been about something very different it has been about malcolm issues it has been about housing health care childcare. i would pick it up on on something that that connell said right back of the sort of that on so the islands pretty unique in that this traditionally been no. swing towards the left or right in from election to election but with bush in fame on the rise is is that about to change and will left now become a mainstream political force in irish politics one might argue that should faine wyler spaces lots of left leaning political policies it's not actually a left wing party it's primarily a nationalist party whose ultimate goal is you know if you are and anything else is . i mean it's interesting in a vague a left wing policy but it's it's no it's. kind of the ideological or doctrinaire left 'd wing party it's going to be quite a pragmatic part we could make a comparison t

northern ireland voted against bracks it with 56 percent of the population in opposition alex now hopes that more people will follow her footsteps and make their voices heard. they want to know more about northern ireland i'm joined by quentin peel senior fellow at the think tank chatham house on european affairs thanks for coming quentin say no law and was a major roadblock for 2 reason may and how withdrawal agreement is it all solved now on the bus johnson no i don't think it is i don't think it solved it's been fun the big change is that boris johnson has agreed in effect to have some sort of border in the middle of the irish sea that infuriated the irish the northern irish unionists and really he lost their votes but he no longer needs votes and he's pushed it through the trouble is i think that it's not just the unionists in northern ireland who mistrust the whole deal it's also on the other side of the channel i was talking to somebody from paris yesterday and they were saying we'll win over the top show that the brits won't try and smuggle stuff into the european union through n

what do you i mean we know yes right they want to ask about that but sake we just know that what bracks said it's never been a simple it's never been plain sailing we seem to lay off today all today do you think we're going to see you. on call up this pattern with the transitional period or do you think bars johnson's do what i broke the pledge let's also just be done with that facet of johnny 2021 we're out deal or no deal. this would be a reason why a lot of people celebrate it breaks it's necessary go out on the streets speak because a very been fed up with all the there are a because it's been very very 3 and a half years since the referendum it's all so by various a lot of faith big. some would say aspiration is trying. lack of confidence and the cards really are are on the u.k.'s side because. the u.k. you can leave without a deal at the end of the the year fits a wish is so i mean it's not going to take me home in the u.k. if it happens it's as much in the interests of the u.k. as it interests to have a deal so are you personally feel that the u.k. will be out of the year and. fr

bracks that has not officially happens but the u.k. as we were hearing from jonah is still quite some way from distant tangling itself from the european union charlie rangel has more. just because it has happened it doesn't mean the story is over britain has now left the easy institutions and lost its vote in the e.u.'s bodies but the 11 month transition period means almost everything else stays the same it's now crucial for the u.k. that it so it's a trade deal with the e.u. the u.k. is still signed up to e.u. rules but can negotiate a new deal up until the 31st of december can a deal be done by then well the european commission president us live on the land was blunt she said it would be impossible to complete in the time frame. 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 prioritize one option to speed things up is the slicing tackling the negotiations area by area making smaller separate deals on aspects of trade fisheries and

trumpet's why have sanders that's why you have bracks it's why you have the it's why you have the terms for deutschland in germany on and on and on right but then thirdly having less to do with the internal and the geo political it's just the institutional and the it's the what daniel just said which is when we create these institutions they actually reflect the geo political order balance values capital of the time times change but the institutions frequently don't we put the un together in 1905 literally in 1987 the security council no longer made sense we had the berlin crisis and we're thinking ourselves why the hell did we let the soviets in with the permanent veto sadly too late there they are and ever since then security council been broken can't reform it now when you talk about the nato and the world trade organization it took a long time before the geopolitics shifted so much of the institutions felt irrelevant but now in 2020 hey surprise surprise a lot is institutions don't remotely reflect the geo political realities of those 1st 2 points and as a consequence the institutio

going to say 800 years is too long a time do you think she in fame is going to be able to leverage bracks it terms over the united kingdom a force to force a poll under the good friday agreement i don't see it as levering it as leveraging in relation to embrace of negotiations well what i see is that bracks it has probably changed a lot of people's minds across the north and south of ireland probably even some people in britain in relation to their logical sense that we would have also always said in relation to break it about irish unity and now what's interesting is talking about at the minute is that there would be some element of sense of the timing we've caused far as citizens assembly whereby all the stakeholders could maced and could discuss what a united ireland would look like how we would have the police in a position for everybody in us and then beyond that we need to ensure the timing of course this conversation has started the genie is out of the bottle. so it doesn't make sense not to be prepared even vienna foyle are saying that but one of boris johnson just says no in fact

leave side is that you consistently fail to articulate what the british economy would look like after bracks. last december we got a flash of real honesty from nigel farage at the oxford union when he said that i will accept that none of us knows what the risks are if we leave the european union . muppets the most momentous decision that the british being required to take in 40 years. and you know what the risks are so not sort of fly with me and we'll see what happens yes but that's it isn't it is the whole point is that if we don't think the country is worth more than then the whole point is if we put the x in the box in the right box on the ballot paper we then have 2 years of hopefully a responsible government hopefully a responsible chain that will negotiate a at exit package which is $1100.00 words it's like surely isn't it may be you know with luck yes as is this is a huge gamble you want the british people and it's a huge it's a huge gamble for both sides and nervous times for you coming up to the referendum so nervous that you've even started talk about what it would be like to lose

now brack said has opened a u.k. size hole in the us budget making spending cuts almost inevitable 1st on the chopping block subsidies like those paid out to farmers hundreds of them are taking to the streets now to tell brussels they can't do without the help. most days these forklifts carry heavy bales of hay to day political messages pleading for help from vegetable and tobacco farmers fighting for dignity in spain food prices have remained low for decades low production costs have gone up farms have shut down and farmers are asking their political leaders to step in. there are more $3.00 or no we have been charging the same prices for products for 30 years and we can't go on like this enough is enough with tobacco 30 years ago we earned 3 year olds 40 per kilo and now it's down to to 30 yards or more on the low road when. no doubt brussels will hear the farmer swartz's but still there are subsidies might get cut after all agriculture contributed only 1 point one percent to the blocks gross domestic product while

but bracks it is still not a done deal the 2 sides now began an 11 month transition period and the difficult work of finding the terms of a new relationship. bringing in the changes a recording of big ben didn't sit at the prime minister's residence in downing street just up the road celebrations began the prison's exit from the e.u. in parliament square with this passion but the country is still riven by this sooner. something prime minister boris johnson try to counter with a positive message for the future. job of the government my job is to bring this country together take us forward the most important thing to say tonight is that this is not but the beginning and the cracks it is like nigel who for so long campaign to take the u.k. out of the e.u. set triumphalist tone. i think history. rage is moving in there's 3 i think. that's the day dawned on a new u.k. the newspaper headlines marks the moment in history and almost half a century of e.u. u.k. corporation but the nation is far from united some voice their sense of loss it's a great tragedy. for my life a bit in the european union my

be able to continue this business like a majority of voters in scotland james porter did not want bracks it now the fear that britain will no longer welcome workers from the e.u. has become reality we've tried to encourage people locally to come and pay. you know the numbers just aren't there so these guys are only solution for harvesting what we grow. he doesn't know what he will do in the future he's hoping that the british government will offer a compromise. others are hoping for more radical solutions from the scottish parliament and would have liked to stay in the e.u. . i'm really angry and upset it's being taken over vu against our will not just beats my heart just breaks my heart please leave l.a. on foot us less trying to refight to europe please england. scotland are in 2 different caucus england's want to go their own way and they want to be a bit more right wing and they want to be a bit more reclusive and not so progress a vis goal and one speed progressive. despair about bret's it has reignited the debate about scottish independence. scotland already declared its independen

the maze of bracks that deal has suffered another huge blow british parliament rejected her plan for the 2nd time this is now the 3rd time the prime minister's deal has been rejected 48 hours ago she relaunched her withdrawal plan it was meant to win the support of her colleagues instead it simply seems to have grown closer the last days of thought i will resign as leader of the conservative and unionist party i do so with enormous and enduring gratitude to have had the opportunity to see the country i love boris johnson has spent years waiting outside number 10 downing street today to join his mind only. in this government to work flat out to give this country the leadership he deserves this school has already concluded that the prime minister's advice to her majesty was unlawful void and that no if it corresponds to call for an early general election hoping to win more conservative m.p.'s that will back his projects it. is a fight for the soul of our country. to win the world with to deliver the people of this country yet. we are now in a position to say that this election has been

one of the main battles for bracks it was for offshore here fishing quotas have long been a sore point in the u.k. with leavers bowing to take back control of britain's waters so has the fishing industry on both sides been left at sea. for hundreds of years paul joyce family has set out on the north sea to catch fish. there one of the few remaining families of fishermen in hastings southern england my brother is fishing and cousins are fishing. but for my family this looks like the last generation. so it is just not viable for them to fish. but that's not because of depleted north sea fish stocks. in fact stocks have recovered ses joy instead the problem is that british fishermen face a limit on how much fish they're allowed to catch with fish in in british waters which was british territorial waters and have to throw back fish because our counterparts say european fishermen they do not they do not have to from. that's why nearly all the british fishermen voted for breaks it they want to regain control over their own waters and decide how much to fish they also want to banish of the eu

after the bracks it and your final and decisions have to be made until the end of the us when the 7 get on to do european union and as of now everyone it's capital in a strong germany you present it to take care of that haven't put the european union to say what you said it's also endangered at the moment and that someone was concerned about democracy in the boat the strong european union i have to be frank in new directions don't sound like something great to me mona how should the bigger more established parties deal with the rise of the far right and in germany how do they neutralize them as a as an electoral threat i mean can't can't even be done. to be quite honest i'm not sure whether it can be done even though i want to have very strong recommendations i thing on how to deal with them and my very 1st recommendation would be to. maybe get into processes of seeing whether or not the f.t. could be prohibited as a party which would be not a step toward to address the problem in its totality but more to to deal with it in the short to 2 medium term duration. or time but i think one th

has seen the block's leaders fail to agree on how to make up the 75000000000 euro shortfall left by bracks it. what has come out of this is data differences are still too large to come to an agreement unfortunately we have to suspend this summit. these divisions are there we don't need britain for that they were playing out during the financial crisis a decade ago during the migration grice's we're now seeing them on budget issues so what's the catch here will despite calls for compromise on all sides in friday's negotiations member states were not able to overcome 2 fundamental areas of disagreement at least the 1st sticking point is that the bloc so called frugal 4 do not want the budget to be higher than one percent of its gross national income those countries are denmark austria sweden and the netherlands they also want to keep receiving rebates on the contributions they pay to the $2.00 i spoke to political commentator hammer he gave me his thoughts on the challenges the unions now facing falling britain's departure. on the one hand it shows clearly now the division that has been only

those lovely trade talks that are set to start on the 3rd of march so it's not done with yet with bracks that day finally upon us the one question on everyone's lips is what happens next well it's the transition period until the end of the year where everything essentially stays the same for you and me it's business as usual for the e.u. and u.k. trade negotiators it's game on or they have to get a trade deal signed off by december 31st ideally 6 months before to give businesses time to prepare the alternative well will crash out of the e.u. without a trade deal something business is on both sides really want to avoid so we better crack on with the trade talks as soon as possible now boris johnson has said. he wants to get started right now but that's a bit of an issue for the e.u. the e.u. isn't just one save it's $27.00 countries needing to agree a negotiating position and that won't be signed off until the end of next month so march will be the earliest we can actually get started but what might the agreement look like well the easiest for would be what's called an alignment deal our
