brexit! not the end of the road for this bill -- not the stop brexit! for this bill —— not the end of the bridge of his bill, but there will be more ahead. this is bbc news at 5.00pm. the headlines: hundreds of deaths at a hospital in hampshire because of the over—use of strong painkillers. in the commons, the government wins a key vote on the brexit bill defeating calls for mps to be given "a meaningful vote" on the final deal. president trump says he will sign an executive order to keep families together at the border with mexico. and in sport, cristiano ronaldo continues his excellent start to the world cup. his goal sends morocco packing. but anything he can do, so can louis suarez. they are currently in the second half. england, though, have a problem. dele alli has eight minus icebreaking ahead of their match with panama on sunday, and dan evansis match with panama on sunday, and dan evans is refused a wimbledon wild ca rd evans is refused a wimbledon wild card following a year—long ban after taking cocaine. i will be back with more on that it afte

the brexit bill must have been a nightmare, mustn't it? s as important as the law on this particular bill. there's politics in every line of it. and it was always bound to be sought to be amended at various stages, so they would have thought about that, they would have thought about trying to produce a structure that would keep its integrity despite layers of amendments. very, very difficult. well, i've got it here. when a bill is produced like this which you have actually written, you know, you're very proud of it, it's like your own your book, your piece of work? yeah, bills that i've written, i have been proud of them. sometimes you're more proud than other times. sometimes the process, either because of the politics or because of the interests involved, mean that after you've produced your nice clean bill, you actually have to play around with it quite a lot and it only looks quite how you wanted it to look. and when you finish this, of course, it's like it's marked by 650 mps, isn't it, and then maybe up to 800 lords. how do you feel a

the eu withdrawal bill puts eu law into uk law, to stop a legal black hole opening up after brexit. 's been working its way through parliament for the last few months — and the wrangling over the bill had come down to one key point. how much say would parliament have if no deal with the eu is reached? to cut a very long story short conservative rebels thought they had an acceptable deal compromise last week, but when they saw the fine print weren't happy, so got their colleagues in the lords to change the bill to reflect their views and ping it back to the commons. cue more frantic negotiations and another very tight vote: pregnant mps were summoned, and one mp who'd been receiving hospital treatment was wheeled through the commons, covered in a blanket and carrying a sick bowl. at the end of it all, the government won the day. the ayes to the right, 303. the no's to the left, 319. so, the no's have it, the no's have it. unlock. at the start of the debate, the brexit secretary said he didn't want a "no deal" outcome. it is not an outcome we are seeking. as it stands i'm confident we

we know tomorrow and wednesday are going to be filled with votes on the lords amendments to the brexit bill so it is crunch time for the government and brexit and the sun has put together this fantastic montage of everything great and good about britain, from football, to stonehenge, via the spitfire and welsh looking sheep. you know, it is fantastic i think to see all of those wonderful things about britain celebrated. personally i think none of this would be taken away if we stayed in the european union, nevertheless it is a lovely set of picture... . yes, i mean, digbyjones, is this going to be a great betrayal? we have to be beware of the tyranny of parliament, and if you look at the sun and the daily express which you showed up, ignore the will of the people at your peril. this isn't pitched at the establishment elite south of the m25. this is pitched at the readerships of the newspaper, north britain, north england i should say, and some of the midlands. you have 650 people, plus 810 or something unelected people in the lords, who are unrepresentative of the 17.4 million people who vo

could almost hear the sigh of relief coming from downing street when the government's first big brexit billared parliament. the eu withdrawal bill takes eu laws and puts them into uk legislation, stopping a legal black hole opening up after brexit and providing the possibility for those laws to be changed by ministers at a later date. but getting the bill through parliament has been a bruising battle, as first mps and then peers voted against parts of it. the government whittled away at the opposition, until eventuallyjust one big sticking point remained — how much say parliament should have in the uk's exit. rebel conservatives — led by the former minister dominic grieve — thought they'd reached a compromise with the government, but then accused ministers of a slap in the face when the final text was revealed. so, when the bill returned to the lords, a tory peer tried to reinstate the spirit of what the rebel mps wanted. if your lordships approve the bill, the house of commons will have an opportunity to consider a reprieve, the agreement negotiated in that faith. between the solicitor gen

government has that meaningful vote on the brexit bill. nt 19, whenthern was heading back to parliament and pro-european lawmakers were threatening to vote against her, this amendment 19 would give erunprecedented power to direct brexit negotiations. we are now getting a headline on the bloomberg saying the u.k. government has one on that meaningful vote in the brexit david and i just had a conversation with a professor from the london school of economics about this and how important this is. david: the other headline suggests that this is really a testament to the dealmaking potential, saying that she wins the vote after promising concessions to pro-eu rebels. this is what she has been doing since it came up, making concessions and pulling it together, even as people speculate that she may have difficulty. sory: congressman, thank you much for waiting, we had breaking headlines there. let's go back to what you are telling us about the immigration vote. you are aying bystander in these discussions, but if you get that discharge one of the b

amendment on behalf of the government which is seeking to bring the brexit supporters and the remain supporting mps together, a customs union bill concern around staying in a customs union would be the idea that if we remain in the customs union, we might not be able to strike traders with other countries and also the eu would be negotiating on our behalf and deciding who gets access to our markets. the latest i'm hearing is this customs union might change into a customs arrangement. the wording matters. it sounds frivolous but it matters. if they can ensure this would mean we would have some sort of sovereignty in terms of being able to make our own trade deals with the outside world, outside the eu, i haven't seen world, outside the eu, i haven't seen the details of this yet but i'm hearing that something's lean foot forward that means that remain mps as well as brexit supporting mps, such as jacob rees mogg, can all get behind so we are waiting to hear the details of that. it sounds as if, very briefly, theresa may may have managed to ward off a backbench rebellion? this is another extraordinary thing. keep questioning her au

the brexit bill is finally about to become law. it is, and i feel quite lonely for tomorrow.at is my reality of life. i think it's a very historical moment. i have to say, 230 amendments, back and forth as they say. it's quite right to the house of lords to challenge government. take out the egos, this is important that people and future generations. it hasn't been easy. what do you think of the criticism that the house of lords is stuffed with figures. and it's instinctively hostile to brexit? i see the other way. i think are entitled to have oui’ way. i think are entitled to have our voice. it's very mixed messages. both chambers, really. people are asked to vote. that is important here. we are doing what we've been told to do. did he give soured the move. in the middle of this row over the amendment. he described for example, the coverage of the daily mail which in the past would have been the paper. he suggested some of the tone of social media had been vile as well. alun griffiths had the impact. no, absolutely, but it is poisoned the debate and poisoned the atmosphere.

we have the brexit bill, withdrawalfrom the eu bill with returning to the commons on tuesday.lords. 26 hour sessions. there was going to be an endless session on tuesday but now they have broken it up. theresa may has only got a working majority of 13, trying to keep everyone on site to make sure none of those amendments stay in could be very difficult for her. all of these things putting huge pressure... big eu summit at the end of the month. we now know the white paper with all the plans meant to come out before that's on now won't be. it would be able to be discussed at that summit. how confident do you think ministers are, privately, that things are on track? there is a deadline that the eu has imposed saying we have got to get this signed off by october because the ratification process which is required by individual member countries will take most of six months before you walk out the door? not least ratification by the parliament here. one of the amendments being discussed next week is what happens if parliament get a meaningful vote and says no. does it go back to the

now here, the government has avoided what would have been a major defeat in the commons over its brexit billconcession to potential rebels. the nature of those concessions was much discussed in the days that followed. but it was the way the result of the vote was reported that annoyed peter furno, amongst others. he wrote... special programmes, reports and live coverage this week marked one year since the grenfell tower fire, and on thursday night the anniversary was marked by the bbc one bulletins at 6:00 and 10:00 with a tribute to the 72 people who died in the fire. i hear your voice every day. and i see your face. but you're not there. at that moment, we felt like our hearts had broken. steve carter from preston had this response. and donna ward made this wider point about the weak‘s coverage. finally, if you think we've forgotten about a certain large—scale sporting occasion that began on thursday, that's not something you could accuse the bbc of, including its news output. no matter where they're held, the start of a world cup retains the power to excite and unite like little else in s

vowed there will be a smooth and orderly exit from the eu, this after her government's flagship brexit billle. she avoided a backbench rebellion with an eleventh hour concession to pro—eu tories. the "department for exiting the eu" said it marked a "crucial step" in the uk's preparations for brexit. meanwhile, the home secretary, sajid javid, is calling on other eu countries to give details of their arrangements for british nationals living abroad after brexit. later today, he'll give more information on the settlement scheme for eu citizens wanting to stay in the uk. mrjavid has accused other countries of failing to match britain's progress on dealing with expats. the education secretary, damian hinds, has backed calls making ‘upskirting' a specific criminal offence will move a step closer today, after it was controversially blocked last week. the prime minister reiterated her support for the bill which could lead to a two year prison sentence for people who take surreptitious photographs up women's skirts. a previous attempt was scuppered by tory mp sir christopher chope who was concerned

today, she has got her two crucial brexit bills through the commons, the article 50 bill and the withdrawalstill kind of intact. there were only six rebels last night and she goes into the summit without a damaging defeat hanging around her neck. but what will most relieve people in downing street is they can now look ahead to future parliamentary battles over the customs bill, the trade bill, new rules for migrants with increased confidence they can get those through. because based on what happened last night, it seems clear that would be tory rebels are very, very reluctant to vote against the government. thank you very much. president donald trump has ordered an end to the separation of migrant children from their parents at the us border with mexico. his administration's policy of "zero—tolerance" towards illegal immigration led to thousands of children being detained, away from their parents. but last night he signed an executive order bringing the policy to an end, as our washington correspondent gary o'donoghue reports. this stretch of the rio grande in brownsville, texas, is where m
