david frost says no compromising on that stuff.any more is the fundamental point of brexit. the second piece of news is we will get a much more detailed view of the government's position for the opening of the negotiations next week. now what form that takes, he didn't say. we don't know if that will be another speech by the prime minister, a white or green paper, or another parliamentary statement. those are the two things. the government won't change its position and we will get much more detail about that position next week. has there been any eu response to david frost was my first comments? not yet. i would be surprised if there is anything dramatic or big, or official in terms of a response. this was him speaking in a lecture ata this was him speaking in a lecture at a university. they haven't even sat down to start the negotiations yet. so this was much more of a personal message from david frost rather than an official communication from the uk to the eu. it was actually very personal speech from david frost, talking about

today they had one with david frost who i think is a little bit different as he is a civil servant. the uk's main man for negotiations. he didn't exactly d ivvy negotiations. he didn't exactly divvy up journalists between left and right, buta divvy up journalists between left and right, but a few publications we re and right, but a few publications were not as a result, the lobby journalists all decide to walk out. solidarity. trying to make a comment about press freedom. it may be more ofa about press freedom. it may be more of a westminster inside story and the government may not be cutting off all journalists from having briefings. this was a specific occasion which maybe has more question marks around it because david frost is a civil servant being date with taxpayer's money. a source was saying we invite who we want. it's up to us. that was their attitude. i say two things. that's increasing irritation but the lobby as the lobby. there is no inner lobby or special lobby, you have the lobby. if everyone is gathered literally inside the door and you say... literally inside the do

because the eu wants to lock the uk into that as part of future trade deals and david frost says we willthat so it is a very much kind of vision speech setting out where he thinks brexit should go but ido where he thinks brexit should go but i do think it is him doing this because the eu in the first age of brexit was much clearer and his intentions and the government here was criticised for not being so clear and he has gone out and given a speech about this whole thing about rules and sovereignty is all we are going to hear about when the talks start up again in march. 0k, and grace, the story that caught your eye on the front page of the ft. your eye on the front page of the ft, facebook talks. part of a long—standing face—off if you will between the big tech giants and the eu because referring to these issues around regulation, using a much stronger approach to regulating what it sees is monopolistic companies especially in the tech sector and prosecuting them over issues around data privacy and things and it has created some tension with the us where most of these companies are head

what's going on now very much, brooke, to may of 19677 when ex-president richard nixon went on the david frost tv show, did that famous interview when he said, if the president does it, it must be legal. we are living in that reality right now. donald trump believes he can do anything that he wants. he can run shotgun over the justice department. he can have attorney general barr do his bidding in any way, shape, and form that he wants, and he can let the prosecutors, career prosecutors just flee, and so it's we are in a crisis of a white house, but it's in the middle of an election season, and i think it's only going to get grimmer and uglier because the president's on a retribution tour. he wants to punish people. he's angry that he has been impeached in american history, and he's in a very vindictive mood this february. >> so given what doug just said, if you are at main justice or at u.s. attorney's office, and you're thinking that your boss ultimately bill barr maybe doesn't have your back, what kind of chilling effect does this have? sara was just reporting on potential walkouts. >> look

that europe adviser is this man, david frost.s a matter of some importance of course, but the uk government says it was a "private lecture" and only invited one journalist from a news agency. remember, the uk left the european union at the end of january, but it's in a transition period where it effectively continues to trade like an eu member. that period ends at the end of this year. a new trade deal is needed for then. and we await the start of the negotiations. here is adam fleming. they are writing michel barnier‘s mandate, the detailed set of instructions that will be given to the chief negotiator. in private, france is leading a sort of countries who are trying to get that language toughened up so there are more constraints applied to the uk in return for that being ambitious free—trade agreement that both sides say they want to do. we will see what they end up with when it is published and approved officially honorably in the middle of next week. adam mentioned france wanting to toughen up the eu's position. the french fo

he made the comments as the uk's brexit negotiator david frost prepares to set out borisjohnson's plansrespondent adam fleming is in brussels. adam, can we unpick what he had to say and what it tells us about the way that these trade talks are being prepared? the first thing to say is that normally on the eu side they try to be a little bit more subtle and diplomatic and a bit less bloodcurdling than the french foreign minister was yesterday. what is happening at the moment is that in brussels they are trying to come up in brussels they are trying to come up with a monday, a detailed blueprint which we think will be signed off next week, but that is currently being worked on by officials and diplomats. france is the leader of a group of countries that are trying to toughen up that monday and put more restrictions on the uk as the price for the ambitious free trade deal with no ta riffs ambitious free trade deal with no tariffs or quotas on any goods that both sides say they want. what they we re both sides say they want. what they were saying was something that does reflect what the fre

believe that the president is above the law, you know, you think back to the old richard nixon/david frost interview, where richard nixon said, if the president does it, it is not illegal. that seems to be the approach that not only donald trump is taking but that bill barr is supporting. so i have to agree with congressman heck, when he said pretty poetically that the cold-blooded, clear-eyed remedy to this seems to be november. and the elections. but as you say, joy, that's only if our elections are free and fair. >> that's a big if at this point. vera, thank you so much for being here. glen kirshner, always thank you to you. thank you both. >> up next, the impeached president continues to surround himself with nothing but loyalists and to purge those not rely to fall in line. where this all leads in two minutes. at fidelity, we can help you build a clear plan for retirement to help cover the essentials, as well as all the things you want to do. because when you have a retirement partner who gives you clarity at every step, there's nothing to stop you from moving forward. who gives you c

senate has made good on this past week, is richard nixon's 1977 assertion to british journalist david frosts not illegal." how did our nation get to such a place that many citizens think our president is a king instead of a servant to the constitution. i blame congress, on both sides of the aisle, for placing the long term integrity of the legislative branch as a lower priority than the fast-lane windfall of political party self-interest. bipartisanism has for the time being, gone the way of the dodo: extinct. with the white house perfecting the dark art of stonewalling and democrats unable to accept donald trump as a real president, america sits at the cross-roads of utter governmental dysfunction. i have to take some responsibility for the mess in washington, myself. today, for example, i am much more interested in watching the chiefs-49ers game in the super bowl than micro-following the roller coaster ride of impeachment politics. both political parties today seem more interested in fighting each other than fighting for the american people. i worry that the crack on the liberty bell no l

mandate that was new, it had been direct fared over the last few weeks, via his europe adviser, david frosthaven't made progress byjune, the uk would be prepared to walk. i think it is slightly over blowing to say the uk is therefore really dialling up the pressure on the eu for that meeting because the reality is they would need a deal done by september just to finish is they would need a deal done by septemberjust to finish the ratification before the end of the year. so it is kind of a statement of fa ct year. so it is kind of a statement of fact to say that if they haven't progressed through the noncontroversial issues by that point, it looks like we are probably heading towards that direction. sol think there's a lot of posturing here because the uk government's reveal preference has been to say they are prepared to walk away. but a lot of it actually is probably just stating the obvious. just to clarify, do we know if a no deal at the end of 2020 would be the same as ano the end of 2020 would be the same as a no deal in the autumn of last year? would they look the same and impact the
