let's go to brussels and talk to adam fleming.to get talks today between michelle barnier, europe's chief negotiator and stephen barclay, the brexit secretary. also looking at what is happening in london? michelle barnier will be listening closely to what stephen barclay has got to say and it will be about listening, rather than renegotiating the brexit deal. because the withdrawal agreement, the divorce treaty is closed, as far as the eu is concerned. but it is not close as far as the uk is concerned. stephen barclay will be presenting the uk's three ideas to the backstop, at the back—up plan to avoiding checks on the irish border, if it is not solved at the future trade deal the two sides do. there is the idea of a time limit on the backstop, a unilateral exit mechanism for the uk to come out of the backstop if it comes into force and also alternative arrangements to get rid of the backstop altogether. michelle barnier will be listening to those ideas, not necessarily acting on them. because the eu thinks where the room for mano

let's speak to our correspondent in strasbourg, adam fleming. in this process is actually pouring cold water today it seems on the likelihood of negotiations being at a crucial stage. what do you make of this? yes, the brexit coordinator for the european parliament which is meeting in strasbourg, he hasjust tweeted,"despite meetings with uk representatives including the prime minister theresa may, david lidington, the duchess of lancaster, in the cabinet," i have yet to hear ofa in the cabinet," i have yet to hear of a proposal, he says, to break the brexit deadlock. he says the way forward is cross—party, not kicking the can towards a disastrous no deal. that is what he has just tweeted, so he has obviously not been that impressed by the messages over the last couple of days, which i think will be dismaying to the people delivering those messages, including the prime minister. what they have been saying to the eu,"look, this is not theresa may going back on the deal she previously negotiated with the eu. the message from the government as she t

we can speak to our brussels reporter adam fleming. this was in a footnote, i understand.to the documents. in november, the eu published a proposal saying that british citizens who want to the eu on holiday orfor work british citizens who want to the eu on holiday or for work after brexit would not need a visa, but this being the eu, it then had to go through a legislative process to be approved by the member states and the european parliament. what happened during that process was that the spanish government insisted a little footnote was put into the document where it describes gibraltar as a colony and said that its status was controversial. now, the british government found that language quite offensive, and this morning at a meeting in brussels the uk ambassador to the eu, he made an objection to his counterparts, and that will now be written down and added to the minutes of the meeting. however, the footnote is still in the document, it has not gone anywhere, and eight uk request to add a second footnote clarifying the situation was rejected by the eu. now, i know it

we can now speak to our brussels correspondent, adam fleming.ude to theresa may yourself? it's all been around the mps in the house of commons or the leaders of the leave campaign during the referendum and rather than being critical of her using undiplomatic language about her, they have been open to this idea of her coming here with a solution to break this deadlock so i think that is worth bearing in mind. ithink deadlock so i think that is worth bearing in mind. i think if wejust go back to that clip of leo varadkar, what he was suggesting is that mps who voted for the brady amendment in parliament last week, looking at alternatives to the backstop, either didn't know what they were doing or where being misled or just kind they were doing or where being misled orjust kind of crossing their fingers misled orjust kind of crossing theirfingers and misled orjust kind of crossing their fingers and deliberately misleading themselves when they voted for that amendment. i suspect some backbenchers might find that even more offensive than the comments

young to get the latest reaction from westminster — but first to our brussels correspondent adam flemingtusk is no political neo fight, he knew what he was saying and how it would sound, his talk of special places in hell, but this is hardly the ideal thing to say before the meeting with theresa may. hardly the ideal thing to say before the meeting with theresa maym hardly the ideal thing to say before the meeting with theresa may. it is quite flabbergasted to hear what he said, the language was so undiplomatic. this was planned by donald tusk, he looked down at his paper before he delivered that. and his team put that out on twitter afterwards. he definitely meant to do it. he has thought this for quite some time. he thinks brexit is a terrible idea and he hoped it could be reversed but he has now given up on that. he is pretty scathing about the campaign that led britain to leave the eu, so no surprise he said this, but quite surprising he said it in such strong terms. this was not aimed at the prime minister, this was aimed at some of the people who led the league campaign in the refe

to be some discrepancies over what was agreed in that meeting, as our brussels correspondent adam flemingttee were here in brussels today. they had a meeting with a man called martin selmayr, who is the secretary—general of the european commission, the top official in that organisation, and very close to jean—claude juncker. the mps came out and they basically said to us waiting journalists, quite a big group of us, that they came away with the idea that the eu was prepared to offer further legally binding assurances, clarifications, interpretations of the withdrawal agreement and the backstop. then this is how that played out on my twitter feed a couple of hours ago. i tweeted a summary of what the committee said to us and the rest of the press pack, and then martin selmayr himself replied saying come on the eu side, nobody is considering this. asked whether any assurance would help to get the withdrawal agreement through the commons, the answers of mps, inconclusive. the meeting confirmed that the eu did well to start its no deal preparations in december 2017. two things to take away fr

we're joined now by our brussels reporter, adam fleming. the most important thing he said as he thinks there is no chance of there being another public vote that could revert to brexit. he thought may be all of this would go away in his heart of hearts and that is probably the most significant thing, donald tusk said yesterday. in terms of the significant things theresa may will say in brussels in about one hour and a half, her big message to the eu is, you have to change the deal or there will be no deal. as you are saying, the changes she are looking for at the northern irish backstop, either a time limit, a mechanism for the uk to get out of the backstop if it comes in, or may be something com pletely it comes in, or may be something completely different from the backstop altogether. the problem is the eu do not see it that way, they do not want to change the divorce deal, they think the solution is a much closer future relationship between the uk and eu than the one theresa may has pursued so far. thanks very much. a 2a—year—old man has

now let's go to brussels and speak to our correspondent adam fleming, because of course today it is anotherin brussels and we get the brexit secretary, stephen barclay, in town. yes, that will be at the end of the day because the brexit secretary is here for a dinner with michelle barnier, the eu chief negotiator, and they will be eating at the residence of the uk's permanent representative to the eu, the british ambassador to the eu, if you like so michel barnier will be on british diplomatic turf, and what they will be talking about is the three ideas that the uk has for changing the backstop, the insurance policy to avoid checks on the irish border and the future trade agreement between the uk and the eu. and the idea is that the uk is bringing to the table possibly an exit mechanism from the backstop if it ever comes into force that means that the uk could make its own decision and unilaterally leave the backstop arrangement, could you have some kind of time limit on it so it only lasts for a certain number of yea rs, only lasts for a certain number of years, or could there be alternati

joining us now is our brussels correspondent adam fleming.sterday. worth remembering yesterday donald tusk‘s remarks were aimed not at the prime minister but at some of the people involved in the leave campaign in the referendum. he was very careful to leave the door open for theresa may to come and resent some alternative solutions. she has not done that but she has prevented a process that the eu has signed up to, and it is more talking. if you thought the brexit negotiations are over, they sought of formerly are that there is a bit more to go. brexit secretary stephen barclay will meet the eu chief negotiator in strasbourg in france and that is where michel barnier is going to be. the resort a slight difference of emphasis about what this process is though. uk sources say the withdrawal agreement and a backstop is on the table to be discussed, in other words could you put a time limit on, could you put an escape clause on it, could you put an an escape clause on it, could you putan in an escape clause on it, could you put an in their along
