a 5live news special with emma barnett and theresa may. i think for most people out there, actually, they just want us to get on with it. mrs may is talking now over the heads of political opponents and tory mutineers, trying to tune into public impatience with the point scoring, with a political game she may well lose. i'm going to be explaining the deal to people up and down the country because i think this is important. it's not just about the mps in westminster looking at the deal, it's about people across the country understanding what the deal is about. so, that's my focus. so, no plans to resign? my focus is on getting this deal through. then, this blunt warning to parliament, to brexiteer mps and ministers, no point defeating her brexit plan in hope of getting a better one. if we were to go back to the european union and say, "well, people didn't like that deal, can we have another one"? i don't think they're going to come to us and say, "we'll give you a better deal". for the former remainer, a tough question. without any politica

you've been watching a special edition of the emma barnett show, and thank you very much forjoining us the country to come together. the prime minister appeals for national unity over brexit. on a bbc phone in in the last few minutes, theresa may said the draft brexit agreement is the right dealfor britain. i believe if we were to go back to the european union and say people don't like that deal can we have another one, i don't think they are going to come to us and say we will give you a better deal. it comes as eu officials finalise the draft brexit deal, due to be signed off at a summit this weekend. also this lunchtime: you're getting arrested to prevent a breach of the peace. one of britain's top police officers says financial cuts are too deep and have gone on too long. the united arab emirates considers a pardon for the british academic jailed for life for spying.

the former home secretary amber rudd spoke to five live's emma barnett earlier today. eliver on the things that are important to many of us who are in parliament, and to me that is making sure we protect the jobs, businesses, manufacturing in our communities, but we also take the opportunities that leaving the eu has. so i represent a fishing town in hastings and it is a great opportunity for them, for us to be outside of the common fisheries policy. so that is better. everyone will tell you, even people who are really committed to the eu, the common fisheries policy has not been a success for uk fishermen. so i'm looking forward to the opportunity of making sure we can have a real improvement when we leave the eu, for the fishermen. so i think it is quite exciting, this proposal, and i certainly hope the cabinet back it. you sound like you are going to back it. yes. unequivocally? i haven't actually read it so unless there is something i am really upset about, i am likely to back it. i think it is the right combination. it is a compromise. everybody knew it was going t

we'rejoined by radio five live's emma barnett who presented that special edition of ask this.ou feel it went? it was lovely to have a different guest, a special edition of my own programme on five live. one of my favourite things about live radio especially and of course this is now available on television as well which is good to do the partnership on bbc news, is that ministers often come up with better and punchier questions from listeners, one of the questions even said don't give me waffle, give me an answer. if you're not in the middle of a general election, there aren't many opportunities to speak to the prime minister of the country and it is striking she is going out to try and sell the steel herself. this is her deal, no one knows the detail better than the banister, and ifi detail better than the banister, and if i may say, i wonder if the reasons he is doing this is because there is a struggle, there is a huge battle in the commons to get this through with that meaningful vote coming up in the second week of december, and perhaps she hopes, the public hearing her d

on wednesday morning, before the dramatic events of this week, amber rudd spoke to emma barnett on bbcnd those committed to the eu, that the common fisheries policy has not been a success for uk fishermen. i'm looking forward to making sure we can have real improvement when we leave the eu for the fishermen. this proposal is quite exciting and i hope the cabinet backed it. you sound like you will unequivocally backed it?|j haven't actually read it, unless there is something i'm really upset about i am likely to back it. it is about i am likely to back it. it is a compromise, everybody knew it would need a compromise. people throwing mud at it on either side, looking for something perfect, that was never going to be on offer. people say this is worse than both options, that theresa may has managed to unite both brexiteers and remainers into hating this?|j managed to unite both brexiteers and remainers into hating this? i would say that is because they are both looking for the perfect. the brexiteers have their own vision and that would have the support of a numberof that would have the
