i think you make of michael gove's comments in the sunday times?sible. if you are having a negotiation, you have to be prepared to walk away, and this is what we should have been doing from the 24th ofjune of 2016. prepare to walk away, because as theresa may says, no deal is better than a bad deal. lot of people are worried that the risks of no deal are very, very high, and that in a sense, the government really doesn't know what will be the consequences, it can plan for what it thinks will happen, but this is generally uncharted territory. we'll make it is uncharted territory, the first country ever to leave the european union, but there are many opportunities that come from brexit. of course there are things that we have to iron out, it's a big change, but i think there are many options, andi but i think there are many options, and i think being locked in the customs union, locked in the single markets, not being able to take back control of... those are very damaging that's a bad deal, and that's what was being offered with the withdrawal agree

gove and boris johnson.” think it is part of the same strategy.lightly at odds but when you look at the overall picture, one thing thatis at the overall picture, one thing that is distant is that any government minister you ask will say they do not want a no deal brexit and both michael gove in the sunday times yesterday and boris johnson today say it is their aim and intention to get a new brexit deal. that they are both clear that the withdrawal agreement negotiated by theresa may must go, particularly the back stop part of it and a new agreement must be reached. if that is not the case, however, the government is working on the assumption that it will not happen and that they must prepare for a no deal brexit. so was borisjohnson said today that it is not his assumption there will be a no deal brexit, he said that michael gove was absolutely right to prepare for that eventuality and that is what the government is doing. remember, this is not just the government is doing. remember, this is notjust a case of believing that it this is notjust a ca

you've got michael gove, who is leading on this every day with meetings with these six blokes, these cobra room. two things i wonder, one, whether michael gove is leading that so prime ministerjohnson can i’ui'i that so prime ministerjohnson can run around later saying i should have been involved more in that if it doesn't work, who knows? i've forgotten what the other one was! very quickly, john, is he serious about it? i think he is serious about it? i think he is serious about it? i think he is serious about it but he doesn't have any plan about how to get past of the opposition of parliament, which is why i think he will be forced after the end of october to go to the country and say i've been blocked by parliament and i need a mandate for my brexit. turning to the financial times and this is the reality of it, people's jobs are on the line. you were talking about good exit headlines for borisjohnson, talking about good exit headlines for boris johnson, but talking about good exit headlines for borisjohnson, but this isn't one of them. this isjobs being threatened at vauxhall ——

michael gove was the first big brexiteer change.el gove, would it be so obvious that boris was going to be prime minister or would it have looked different, is it all on bennett's filed? michael gove and borisjohnson, if bennett's filed? michael gove and boris johnson, if anything bennett's filed? michael gove and borisjohnson, if anything for journalists, just the psychodrama. they were best buddies in 2016 then stabbed boris in the back and went for it himself. it would have been a great story if they went hammer and tongs but you cannot have everything. on the telegraph, a slightly different spin and photograph. they have philip hammond the chancellor, saying he stirs up trouble for boris because he abstained into this vote. an interesting line in the back, he is believed to be the first chancellor ever to defy without being sacked or resigning. the chancellor is accused at least by the telegraph of leaving at least by the telegraph of leaving a booby—trapped for the new prime minister and orchestrating a coup. they are using pre

when michael gove says they might prefer when michael gove says they might p refer to when michael gover to leave with a deal, they say they have heard the response from the eu, the deal that was agreed with theresa may is the one on the table, take it or leave it. he says while he is optimistic that a deal can be reached, they say they must operate on an assumption that the eu will not budge. he says there is now a very real prospect of no deal and planning for no deal is now the government's number one priority. tom, the new prime minister is not wasting much time. he was here in manchester yesterday offering money for the north. it is early days, but the boris bounce is on? the boris bounce, of course, thatis on? the boris bounce, of course, that is what the newspapers are calling it. it is good news, as far as opinion polls go. four of them all of them are showing an improvement for the conservatives. it is not uncommon, any new leader, new government, often have a honeymoon period where the see the polling numbers increase. there has been an improvement, somewhere between three and

what alternative does michael gove really have but to prepare for no deal? to be realistic and realise it is a disaster for all of us realise it is a disaster for all of us and stop it. the fact that preparing for no deal should and might be reassuring but actually as terrifying. what they're doing is not trying to stop the disaster, they are trying to stop, they are trying to mitigate the impact was that they are going the other direction. you are a democrat, though. what would you say to the people who voted lieven to leave and want to see that actually happen or this can people not trusting democratic processes ever again? democracy needs more than one vote. it is not one that, it is a process. what we have seen of the last three yea rs what we have seen of the last three years is that there was information we did not have. details that were not available when we have the referendum. now we have the detail. now we know what leaving europe will actually mean. it is notjust hyperbole. we have the facts and people deserve fact to know that they have the chan

if this had been a contest between michael gove and borisjohnson, things contest between michael govegs could contest between michael gove and borisjohnson, things could have been very different. michael gove could have positioned himself as the person to say, i am the true believer in brexit, boris is the fair weather supporter. but now it is with jeremy hunt fair weather supporter. but now it is withjeremy hunt and so boris johnson positions himself as the true brexiteer, jeremy hunt is the person who voted for remain and supported remain, knowing that is all—important to supported remain, knowing that is all—importa nt to that supported remain, knowing that is all—important to that small constituency of 160,000 conservative members. it is in the paper which has most promoted him for which he writes, and therefore one must expect some bias. yes, it is boris johnson getting across precisely the message that he was to get across. because he wants to make it clear that no deal is an option. one of his criticisms of the negotiations up his criticisms of the negotiations up until this po

mr gove, who's now responsible for planning for such a scenario, said his team still aimed to come tossels, but, writing in the sunday times, he added: "no deal is now a very real prospect." our political correspondent tom bartonjoins us now. tom, what does this tell us about the new government's approach to brexit? this is a change of tone, no doubt about that. michael gove, the man responsible for both planning for no deal, but making sure that the whole of government is getting ready for a no deal brexit, in charge of the cabinet office as the duchy of lancaster chancellor. he is sitting gci’oss lancaster chancellor. he is sitting across all of those departments, making sure that everybody is ready. and he is very clear in this article today. saying firstly that there is no point trying to get anything that looks much like theresa may's agreement through parliament, because it willjust get rejected, saying that you can'tjust reheat a dish that has been sent back and expect it will be more palatable. but also saying that actually if the eu stick to their guns and say they won't rene

if this had been a contest between michael gove and byron —— boris johnson, michael gove could have additionre is boris johnson was the fair weather guy who wrote two articles, 14 and one against. borisjohnson is now saying he is the real deal brexit prime minister. how can anybody trust this man who slides this way and that one day he will be modern and liberal and the next minute he is saying all sorts of extraordinary things about... it will be interesting for the bid will be like a shakespearean play. one person that does trust him, turning to the sunday times, is sajid javid. jostling for position is now. yes, man in search of job tries to getjob is now. yes, man in search of job tries to get job from man is now. yes, man in search of job tries to getjob from man handing outjobs. tries to getjob from man handing out jobs. do they not have any principles was to mark when they we re principles was to mark when they were competing against each other, what he was saying about boris johnson and now borisjohnson is the solution? do you suggest him to turn around and say he will not serve? yes

there are rumours that michael gove will be promoted. that kind of makes sense to boris.egation. he has very clear ideas and he is one who boris might want to delegate to. that sense and it might make sense of bringing the tory party together. it is interesting listening to nigel eva ns, it is interesting listening to nigel evans, quite excited about dominic cummings coming back. of course, dominic cummings and michael gove really did push the eurosceptics, those who have long been eurosceptics, away from vote lead. he is seen as a very divisive figure. many people who are devoted to him would not want to serve and a administration he was a part of. if you think about some of those key appointments that have already been made, we have seen, we expect,... of course, saying that michael gove, he was part and one of the architects of borisjohnson of was part and one of the architects of boris johnson of that referendum campaign. so, of course, it will be interesting to see how people respond that, even within the brexit camp itself. i think it is very demonstrative of the fa

but michael gove did seem to point the finger a few minutes later.e delivery of particular things. now you must — and this committee must decide why. the idea that it's because of funding cuts when family agencies have had broadly the same level of cuts, i'm afraid, is not the issue. it is an issue about the management and leadership of their organisation in the past. the environment secretary. now, let's leave westminster for a moment to take a look at tuesday in another parliament. when the european parliament re—opened in strasbourg, several british meps made their feelings known. the new lib dem contingent turned up in "stop brexit" yellow t—shirts, and the brexit party led their own act of defiance. meps rose for the eu's anthem — beethoven's "0de tojoy", accompanied by a saxophone quartet. the brexit party representatives turned their backs in protest. their leader, nigel farage, called it "cheerful defiance" — the pa rliament‘s speaker called it disrespectful. and finally, after three years in the job, it's likely that the chancellor philip ha

michael gove's assumption is that there will be no deal.sponsible for any government to prepare for no deal if we absently have to and that's the message i've been getting across to out message i've been getting across to our european friends and i'm very confident that we will get there. what are you planning to do to get a deal, meet leaders individually? my approach is to be very outward going. i don't want the uk to be a or hanging back. i want us to engage, to hold out the hand, to go the extra mile after 1000 miles and make it absolutely clear that the backstop is no good, it's dead, it's got to go. the withdrawal agreement is dead. but there is scope to do a new deal. do you have a proposal for a new deal you will take to brussels? we have made it very clear to our friends, we were talking to the irish today, what the limits are, what we want to do, and we're very confident that with goodwill on both sides, too much political entities, the uk and the eu, get this thing done. why will you be able to achieve what theresa may couldn't?

the minister in charge of no—deal, michael gove, says britain will be prepared.re won't be any delays, we're determined to ensure that we leave on october the 31st, and it's my job to make sure the country is ready. we'll bring you all the latest with our correspondents at the vauxhall plant in ellesmere port and at westminster. also this lunchtime: borisjohnson is in scotland, calling for unity, but he faces opposition to a no—deal brexit from the first minister and the scottish tory leader. they're shooting! panic at a food estival in california as a gunman opens fire, killing three, including a child. china condemns the anti—government protest in hong kong as horrendous. and a lucky rescue for the man trapped in rocks on the norfolk coast. he'd saved his toddler from the incoming tide. and coming up on bbc news, egan bernal becomes the first colombian to win the tour de france, after safely riding into paris in the final stage. last year's champion, geraint thomas, was second. good afternoon and welcome to the bbc news at one. borisjohnson is starting his firs

one is borisjohnson is bringing michael gove up in the food chain.ter. and this heals an old wound from the leadership campaign after the 2016 referendum. and also michael gove has been one of the most prominent advocates of mrs may's deal. so he has been in opposition for some time and but thatis opposition for some time and but that is a reconciliation story. and one of the other topjobs that is a reconciliation story. and one of the other top jobs that that is a reconciliation story. and one of the other topjobs that has gone to sajid javid. he got the top dog going and i think some people would see that as a good sign by people who feel that experience should be put into cabinet, notjust based on whether or not they supported brexit. sajid javid does have experience in that area. the daily mail. we agreed that it makes sense on many levels for boris johnson to have done what he has done with the cabinet and the daily mail characterises it as cabinet massacre, all guns blazing. it shows his ruthlessness, it shows he wants to win and that is a mark

yesterday michael gove, the minister in charge of preparing for an ideal brexit, said that was now therexit. the government will chair a new twice—weekly meeting of senior government figures to oversee the uk's exit. it is part of a new approach to government hopes will send a clear message about its promise to deliver brexit by the end of october, with or without a deal. it comes as the business group be cbi issues a new warning that neither the uk nor the eu is ready for a no deal brexit. —— the cbi. the uk government is saying it will put a lot of time and energy and effort into preparing for no deal. that is the right thing to do, we wa nt to that is the right thing to do, we want to see businesses preparing as well as the eu responding in kind. but ultimately, we can avoid all this. the leader of the scottish conservatives, ruth davidson, will make clear to johnson when conservatives, ruth davidson, will make clear tojohnson when she meets him today that she cannot support leaving the eu without an agreement in place. the prime minister is also expected to meet the scottish first

so michael gove says the government's working assumption now has to be that there will be no deal withour assumption? no, absolutely not. my assumption is that we can get a new deal, we're aiming for a new deal. but of course, michael is absolutely right that it's responsible for any government to prepare for no—deal. we should go for a deal, there is every chance that we can get a deal. and i think, with goodwill, and with common sense, that is what we will achieve. so are the odds are still a million to one that we will leave with no deal? provided there is sufficient goodwill and common sense on the part of our partners, that is exactly where i would put the odds. booing. it may not sound like a very warm welcome, but this visit to scotland, arriving at the first minister's official residence just days after becoming prime minister, was designed to demonstrate his commitment to the united kingdom. but borisjohnson meeting nicola sturgeon face—to—face will not help them see eye—to—eye over brexit. not even close. a no—deal brexit would be unconscionable, says the first minister. and

the minister in charge of no—deal, michael gove, says britain will be prepared.

so, apart from michael gove who was set on banning things left right and centre in the environment, mostmix of austerity on the one hand and a focus on brexit on the other. now we have esther mcvey hammering home housing policy, proper attitudes and attempt to build more policing on our streets. but for boris it still is brexit. but my point is you can do both, and for so long our political environment has been so dominated by the brexit discussion, that our domestic agenda, which people care about has been dropped away. if, as borisjohnson says, he wants to renegotiate the withdrawal agreement, and he's got what, 90 days or so, and about 20—something, two dozen of those will be parliamentary sitting days, he's going — he's not going to have much time for doing anything else other than brexit. that's a different question. that's been indicated of course that parliament can sit late and can sit on days it wouldn't normally sit, if required. so the days may be longer than that. and bear in mind, you can get things done in parliament if you have a will to. and that's what i take such comfor

yesterday, michael gove, the minister in charge of preparing for a no—deal brexit, said that was nowmber one priority. the prime minister will chair a new twice—weekly meeting of senior government figures to oversee the uk's exit. it's part of a new approach the government hopes will send a clear message about its promise to deliver brexit by the end of october, with or without a deal. it comes as the business group, the cbi, issues a new warning that neither the uk nor the eu is ready for a no—deal brexit. the uk government is saying it's going to put a lot of time and energy and effort into preparing for no deal, and that's the right thing to do. we want to see businesses doing that as well, and the eu responding in kind. but ultimately, we can avoid all this. and the leader of the scottish conservatives, ruth davidson, will make clear to borisjohnson when she meets him today that she cannot support leaving the eu without an agreement in place. the prime minister is also expected to meet the scottish first minister nicola sturgeon, who says leaving without a deal would be catastrop

he says no deal is not his assumption but michael gove says it is.ckly they change their stance. one could argue this is a negotiating tactic. boris johnson repeatedly had two letters he was going to publish before brexit, one saying he was for remain and the other wanting to leave. waye mason some flip—flopping before october the 31st. interestingly, seeing as he was in scotland, the leader of the scottish conservatives, ruth davidson, saying she wouldn't back a no deal. no consensus among the tories in scotland. this is a mess! let's talk about hong kong, moving on... we've been covering the hong kong story for weeks and weeks and this obviously, from the south china morning post, is going to have certain sides of the story, not all sides, right? yeah, so, beijing is calling for a return to law & order. we've seen protests in hong kong, that have got quite violent, and the new york times has done an investigation saying the hong kong police weren't doing much to stop that violence. this isn't great from beijing's‘s perspective because it really loo

they have been dismissed, michael gove dismissed this sort of thing we spoke about hearing it up fromgraph that talks about the possibility of a snap election in august says it would potentially be borisjohnson seeking a mandate, accompanied by a nonaggression pact with the brexit party. without that, if he were to go to the country with our brexit solved in the conservative party is in trouble. polling that came out yesterday showed that 22% of people would go for the brexit party in the event the brexit was yet to be sold and only 18% for the conservative party. to enter an election as is suggested here without having dealt with the brexit issue will be very, very dangerous for him to do although i should say that danny finkelstein in the times says that is what he ought to do. he should put everything on one number and see what comes out. leaving boris johnson for one one number and see what comes out. leaving borisjohnson for one moment and there will be plenty more in the hours and days ahead. this technology story from the bbc online. the power of technology giants to be probed
