on the labour sidejohn mcdonald he was shadow chancellor and although labour officially opposes the expansion, spoke saying his constituents would see villages swept away and the dead have to be moved in order to make way for a third runway. the spotlight is on foreign secretary borisjohnson, who vowed to lie in front of bulldozers to stop expansion, but is missing the vote because he's abroad. his absence means he won't have to vote against the government. it would have led to him being sacked as foreign secretary. he said it would have been pointless for him to resign because he would, he says, that would have been there were achieved nothing and he can have more impact by staying in the government and influencing it from the inside. our political correspondent, ben wright is at westminster. it's a curious argument because misterjohnson seems to say he can have more impact on the decision but it will have already been made tonight. yes, and that is one reason i think tonight. yes, and that is one reason ithinka tonight. yes, and that is one reason i think a number of tory mps have

the labour leader?urrent estimates, i think three conservative mps voted for the lords eea amendment. around 8—10 and stayed, so that would represent the biggest government rebellion potentially on this bill to date, which i think is very significant —— abstained. we have had a very important debate on these amendments in the commons today, because of course although the majority of people in a referendum in 2016 voted to leave, it was retained to parliament to determine how we leave. and what you have seen in the debate today is a desire to take heed and listen to all the views of all our different communities. a gave a speech myself on free movement and some people's feelings on that. but also, have to take account of that, but also ensure that we leave in the least damaging way to our economy. i'm very honest about this, i personally don't think we should be leaving the european union. if it was down to me, we would not be doing so. but the bottom line is if brexit is going to happen, then let's do i

the labour party said, the labour party said that 2.2% of growth for the nhs would make it the envy of the world. well, i have to say to my honorable and writable friends we are not listening to that. we are putting in 3.4% growth. [shouting] >> jeremy corbyn. >> mr. speaker, under labour the nhs increase what event 5% this year, and the ifs confirmed that in this year, and this year there would be 7.7 billion more for the nhs. and what is her offer? a promise of 394 million pounds per week without saying for any of it is coming from, apart from mysterious phantom taxes that the chancellor is presumably dreaming up at about this very moment. but, mr. speaker, there is a human element to all this is running national health service and public spending. let me give you an example. [shouting] virginia wrote to me last week and she says, my diabetic daughter has fallen down on four occasions in the last month. she now has both legs in plaster and is been told there is enough money for the nhs to give her a wheelchair. mr. speaker, ifs study say the nhs needs 3.3% just to maintain current pr

the labour leader came to his final question.it comes to brexit, this government has delivered more delays and more cancellations than northern rail. hear, hear! the government's white paper is delayed. its customs proposals have been cancelled. and it's ripped up its own timetable. just like our shambolic privatised railways. hear, hear! this government's incompetence threatens our economy, businesses, jobs and our communities. hear, hear! so, my question... my question to the prime minister is this: which will last longer, the northern rail franchise or her premiership? hear, hear! prime minister! i say to the right honourable gentleman, that if he's not willing to stand up in this house and talk about the labour party policy on europe — we actually learned a little today from the shadow brexit secretary about the labour party's policy on europe, where he made clear that it was a pretence. and i quote: "a pretence that somehow everybody in the labour party is in the same place on this". so, now we know what the right honourable

in all, 75 labour mp rebelled in favour of keeping the uk in the european economic area, while 15 labourorters rebelled to vote against. the ayes to the right, 327. noes to the left, 126. ministers easily won the vote to throw out the idea. well, the eu withdrawal bill isn't quite the creature it was when it was first drafted, but that's the nature of bills. bits are added and removed, changed, reinstated and maybe even removed again. so how does it feel if you're the person who drafted the thing in the first place? well, daniel greenberg worked as parliamentary council for 20 years, literally writing our laws and he's been heavily involved in the legislation for withdrawing from the eu. the brexit bill must have been a nightmare, mustn't it? the perception is 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 diffic

what is the labour party do? the labour party wouldn't have money to put in the national health service, because they economy. our and yet, if we are talking about the amount of money being put into the nhs, let us look at what the labour party offered at the last election. the labour party said, the labour party said that 2.2% more growth for the nhs, would make it the envy of the world. well i have to say, to my honorable and right honorable a friend, i choose not to listen to that. we are not putting 2.2% growth in, we are putting 3.4 percent growth in. >> jeremy corbyn. corbyn: mr. speaker, under labour, the nhs increase would have been 5% of this year. it was confirmed that in this year, it would be seven 7 billion more for the nhs. and what is her offer? i promise of 394 million pounds per week, without saying where any of it is coming from, apart from the mysterious centum taxes, that the chancellor is presumably dreaming up at this very moment. let mr. speaker, there is a human element to all o issues sur

the labour leader stays in.prime minister back before secretary and wanting more friction and more disruption to the economy. that's right back theresa may is defiant. the conservative party in government are going to deliver on the will of the british people. and, as mps debate brexit once more, a new metaphor emerges. the only people that hasn't happened yet is a minister hasn't got up at the despatch box and announced that no lifeboat is better than a bad lifeboat. as wednesday dawned, everyone was expecting quite a lively prime minister's questions. there was even a tiny baby cradled in the arms of her mother in the visitors' gallery. but no one could've predicted what was about to unfold. and the number of times the speaker would be shouting the word "order!" snp mps were angry because the previous day's brexit debate on crucial issues about whether and how power will be returned from brussels to holyrood was cut short to just 18 minutes. that was because the government had imposed a time limit. and labour

and labour will be opposed to it, but quite a lot of labour mps will vote for and so will the snp. for some reason, the scottish nationalists are in favour of building a huge airport in london. some like economic growth and activity, john, thatis economic growth and activity, john, that is all it is. labour seeks full access to the single market. is that headline correct with mac technically correct. those are the words and deliver a minute put down next week. the whole point about thatisit next week. the whole point about that is it does not mean anything. the point of that amendment from labour is that they can avoid having to take a position on the lords amendment, which is to keep britain actually in the single market, not just having full access because north korea has full access to the eu single market. this is actually not a shift in labour position, but some of my colleagues in westminster are getting awfully excited about it. i have read tweets from all manner of correspondents who reckon this is a big deal. there are a lot of remainders who are desperate to see labour co

, with pro—remain labour mps cranking up with pro—remain labour mps cranking up the pressure onjeremyin the single market. last night, the labour leadership effectively closed the door to that option after they decided they would not back an amendment to keep britain in the single market when it is voted on next week and instead have come up with this compromise proposal under which a labour government would seek to the main, not in the single market but a single market. —— would seek to remain. they believe they could negotiate a bespoke british steel to ensure the uk could enjoy full access to the internal market without necessarily signing up to all those things like freedom of movement and the oversight of the eu court ofjustice movement and the oversight of the eu court of justice —— movement and the oversight of the eu court ofjustice —— bespoke british beagle. let's listen to the shadow brexit secretary dewar starmer. full access to the internal market means the benefits of the single market which has always been the labour party position. that obviously comes with obligations

that was jonathan ashworth of labour. who is the director of the institute for fiscal studies. how significant a spend is this? quite significant, £20 billion is a lot of money on anybody‘s terms, particularly the squeeze we have had not just particularly the squeeze we have had notjust on particularly the squeeze we have had not just on health particularly the squeeze we have had notjust on health bet on everything else in the past eight years or so. it means spending over the next few yea rs it means spending over the next few years will be growing faster than the last eight years and almost that the last eight years and almost that the average it has grown over the 70 yea rs of the average it has grown over the 70 years of the nhs. that is an important bit of context. this is not growing faster than the nhs has known an average over its lifetime but much faster than has in the last eight years or so. the funding and it -- eight years or so. the funding and it —— of eight years or so. the funding and it -- of it, eight

party in defences a really interesting issue for labour at the moment.rong advocate unequivocally said that she would want the uk to continue to be a tier one power, something that theresa may has struggled to come out in favour of. although you cannot associate jeremy corbyn with the strong defence or being strongly in favour of defence, he has someone in the shadow cabinet who is making the case for it. still justified the fact that it is a broad church, or broader church like that might then you would expect. wets and for this review. we will be back at 11:30pm. let's in with a picture of fans celebrating. —— let's end this review. neither side a p pa re ntly let's end this review. neither side a ppa re ntly wa nted to let's end this review. neither side apparently wanted to win.|j let's end this review. neither side apparently wanted to win. i think we we re apparently wanted to win. i think we were worried that we came across as ambiguous, as belgium played in red tonight. i don't want that misinterpreted in any way. i was looking at this picture an

theresa may focused on labour's.t's detailed plans for the uk's future relationship with the eu — the white paper. the brexit secretary promised, and i can quote, a detailed and precise white paper on the government's negotiating position. will it be published in advance of the eu withdrawal debate next week? yes, my right honourable friend the brexit secretary and i agree that we want to publish a white paper that goes beyond the speeches... that goes beyond the speeches and the papers that have been given and published so far. theresa may had a question of her own. perhaps the right honourable gentleman would like to take the opportunity of doing what he refused to do two or three weeks ago in this chamber which is to stand up and rule out a second referendum. it is not the opposition that are conducting that negotiations. but very sadly, mr speaker, it is not the government either. then came a question which elicited one of the shortest answers ever uttered by theresa may. can the prime minister confirm that it re

labour says it's not enough.'re making the nhs our priority, we're putting a significant amount of extra money into it. we need to make sure that money is spent wisely. we're saying you can go further and if the government made the taxation changes we are prepared to make, you could be giving even more to the nhs. so labour would be spending more on the nhs than the tories. hundreds of migrants who've been the focus of a european dispute over immigration arrive in spain more than a week after being rescued. the conservative mp, sir christopher chope, who blocked legislation to outlaw upskirting now says he does support moves to criminalise it. title holders germany have kicked off their defence of the world cup, but it's not started well. in he comes in! mexico at half time after that goal from hirving lozano. and later on, brazil, the favourites to win the competition this time round, take on switzerland in their first game of the tournament. there's fears that the glasgow school of art, which was ravaged by a f

the labour membership and labour voters are changing their mind. leadership of the labour party has to catch up with the people. leave supporters will look at this and think, you're just trying to unpick the referendum. well, you know what's happening? this is what i'm picking up. a lot of people who voted leave are like a lot of people who voted remain. really worried about how this is all playing out as brexit reality dawns. the tens of thousands of people marching past theresa may's front door today are adamant brexit is not inevitable and can be stopped. but the government insists that brexit must and will happen. next week, theresa may will be back in brussels for the next round of negotiations. ministers insist talks are on track but they're prepared to walk away. the prime minister has always said that nothing is agreed until everything is agreed and that no deal would be better than a bad deal. and i think it is essential, as we enter the next phase of negotiations, that the european union understands that and believes it. in another part o

several labour mps said that there were few signs of improvement.tled at how chaotic and unreliable the service between leeds, huddersfield and manchester still is. i heard from mandy that her regular journey from batley to leeds during this timetable chaos and beyond was the worst commuting experience i have ever had. a real frustration as a member of parliament is knowing the intended improvements over the medium—term but yet constituents quite rightly do not trust that those improvements will happen when the implementation doesn't work as hoped. and so therefore what i think is incumbent upon gtr and network rail to do its very best to get notjust a grip over the medium long time but over the emergency timetable, to do better and work better and work harder at making sure they get a grip on that. and at the end of the debate, mps rejected by 305 votes to 285 the proposal of no confidence in mr grayling. now the prime minister has said that tax rises may be needed to pay for a boost in england's nhs funding. theresa may conceded the public would p

labour really divided on this.ry, the whole politics on this, there is no benefit in going over the history. but one thing you can say that heathrow is that it has been long promised, long debated and yet we are still some way from it actually happening. yes, certainly the question about the need for capacity has been a feature of british politics for more than 20 years. labour at the turn of the millennium got the idea up and running that a solution could eat a third runway at heathrow. then for the next seven or eight years that idea was opposed by david cameron, come the coalition in 2010, the cameron led government then appointed the independent commission into this led by howard davies and that eventually suggested that there should be a third runway at heathrow. and the tories swung behind that. so it has been a long and winding journey for both the two main parties on this and you find yourself in a strange vision tonight with the commons finally have in giving their approval, with labour, the party first pu

but she reckoned labour didn't have an agreed position.nd to the eu being spent on the nhs, the housing secretary called it bogus. the shadow health secretary said it is a deceit. but perhaps i can tell them what another labour member said a few weeks ago. he said we would use the funds returned from brussels after brexit to invest in our public services. it was him, the right honourable gentleman, the leader of the opposition. jeremy corbyn pressed the prime minister over her claims over how much extra money would be available to the nhs and who would pay more tax to fund it. mr speaker, her numbers are so dodgy they belong on the side of a bus. we expect... we expect that from the foreign secretary, but why is the prime minister pushing her own mickey mouse numbers? the prime minister is writing ious just to stand still. until this government can be straight with people where the money is coming from, why should anyone, anyone from anywhere trust them on the nhs? for the 70 years of the nhs, 43 of those years has been under the stewardsh

both the main political parties, labour and conservatives, say they don't want another referendum.d it happen? i voted forjeremy corbyn to become leader of the labour party when i was a member of the party but when he took his stand on brexit, i'm afraid i had to withdraw as a member from the labour party for the first time in 20 years. i think jeremy party for the first time in 20 years. i thinkjeremy corbyn has not understood the feeling, the strength of feeling amongst the 48% of the original referendum and how it may have swung. he understood the strength of the 51%, you could argue. i'm not sure it would still be that. if you look at the million or more students who can now vote, many of them voted forjeremy corbyn of the last election and now they must be feeling completely let down, because they didn't get a vote and if they voted at the referendum now it would be a different situation andl it would be a different situation and i think the remain as woodwind. judy, john, we were lead you to it on with it. you should be heading off in on with it. you should be heading offina

on any and a shift position that is in the public's isom nhs is labour's issue.ould be the not walking away. in a way, this is just confirmation, theresa may said before easter there was going to be more money for nhs. not how much. no matter how much, it's not enough. there's always more money. and what are they going to do about social care, which remains the huge issue. briefly, the telegraph, jane. oxford to oxbridge is fine to... we often hear about terrible representative figures and oxbridge but this week, i think there were sort of fresh yet more samples of how poor oxford aren't having black and minority stu d e nts aren't having black and minority students —— are at having. the chairman of the office for student is threatening oxbridge with slashing the tuition fee unless they do more. sorry to interrupt. it does seem bizarre that these two colleges perhaps more than any other part of oui’ perhaps more than any other part of our lives can get away with diversity things that are so a bjectly diversity things that are so abjectly appalling. it's extraordi

it's more than labour promised it would spend on the nhs at the last general election, although labourtopping a cut to corporation tax. you rightly say this is a hint of the debate that will come between the two main parties on this, because it is politically a high price to be seenin is politically a high price to be seen in the eyes of the electorate as the party which will prioritise and protect the national health service and the prime minister going a long way today to try to make sure it is the conservatives who are seen as that party. thank you. let's talk now to niall dickson, chief executive of the nhs confederation. good morning. what do you make of this announcement? it's welcome, is significantly more money for the health service than we've seen for the last ten years. but we've got to try and catch up or really get back to the situation we were in around 2009. there's a lot of work to be done on that. secondly, we face a huge challenge in terms of the number of elderly people suffering from a lots of different conditions. that is a big challenge to the nhs to get it right

it is labour members.them. mr speaker, you've got to face the fact that there may now be a meltdown. mr speaker, they are not actually my words, but those of the foreign secretary. even as his fellow cabinet ministers are preparing people for the government negotiations which he clearly thinks are going to end in disaster. last week he also took aim at the treasury, sitting absolutely next to him, calling them the heart of remain. he criticised them, saying what they don't want is friction at the borders, but they don't want any disruption to the economy. so does the prime minister back the foreign secretary in wanting more friction and more disruption to the economy? let's talk about the positions on this issue. labour said they wanted to do new trade deals. labour said they wanted to do new trade deals. 0rder, order. iwant they wanted to do new trade deals. 0rder, order. i want to hear both the questions and the answers and as the questions and the answers and as the record shows, and i don't require ass

several labour mps didn't take the same line.y clear what the front bench are going to do if this issue comes to a vote. and so i will make my own mind up based on the debate that we are having. and from what i can see, madam deputy speaker, ceta is actually quite a decent trade deal. what is not to like? and also the question we have to ask is, if not canada, who? if we were to take advice from the shadow front bench and go down the contortions of his route and not ratify this treaty, i simply ask this. what opportunities will be lost? what investments will not be made? what deals will not be done? and what jobs will not be created? well, in the end, the trade deal was approved by 315 votes to 36. a majority of 279. of the 18 labour mps who rebelled, 14 voted in favour of the agreement and four voted against. you're watching tuesday in parliament with me, alicia mccarthy. the defence minister has said that the public might be worryingly naive about the need to invest in the uk's armed forces. tobias ellwood was speaking to the d

let's start with the story about brexit and the opposition party in the uk, the labour party, jeremyorbyn saying we are going for a much softer approach. it seems like they want to have their cake and eat it, so they wa nt to have their cake and eat it, so they want to not lose labour voters who supported brexit, they want to differentiate themselves from the tories, and i suppose one motivation for this is when brexit does go horribly wrong, as i believe it probably will, and have ten mile queues at dover and so forth, they can say, this has nothing to do with us. can say, this has nothing to do with us. the way we would have done brexit, this wouldn't have happened. to me, it is this terrible fine line they are trying to tread which is not to lose their brexit supporting voters and on the other hand, trying to somehow differentiate themselves from the tories cannot have their fingerprints on brexit. right from the word go, jeremy corbett has been seemingly hedging this bets. he has not done ever a speech like the prime minister, theresa may did, quite soon after the decision, soon

he failed to say whether labour supported the decision.en in the heathrow airport limited statement of principles, there is a cost recovery clause for heathrow in the event that the project does not proceed after this decision, that this could mean taxpayers have to pick up a bill that costs billions and billions of pounds? the government denied taxpayers would be liable. others were worried about the environmental dimension. it really does beggar belief that that the words climate change didn't pass his mouth once during the statement. in his department's most recent aviation forecast, there is no scenario in which expansion at heathrow is compatible with meeting the government's own commitments under the climate change act. some mps were delighted with the news. now, i must be honest. initially, supporting heathrow was counterintuitive for myself and actually for my scottish perspective, but engaging the scottish airports, all but one actually support expansion at heathrow. the various scottish chambers of commerce all support expansion

i am joined by caroline lucas and labour's nick cummins summons.ve learned that at the last moment to may tends to pull off these negotiations. it matters for businesses if not the negotiators themselves. businesses in brighton, themselves. businesses in brighton, the nhs and tourism industry, they are desperate to know what endgame we have, and it feeds into the shambles surrounding the government's handling of brexit. i was interested that jeremy corbyn we nt was interested that jeremy corbyn went on brexit, i think because he knew he couldn't be worse than she is, and this idea we will have 15 amendments to be discussed next week in12 amendments to be discussed next week in 12 hours amendments to be discussed next week in12 hours is amendments to be discussed next week in 12 hours is such a disservice to democracy, i think it is gone down as well as a cup of cold sick on both sides of the house. whatever side you were born in this debate, it surely has to be worrying that we are going into these negotiations without a plan. brexit negotiations a

a point taken up by a labour brexiteer. actually amounts to is an unconstitutional shift which risks undermining our negotiations with the european union. it enables parliament to dictate the government's course of action in international negotiation. professor... well, what's wrong with that? i'll read a quote from a constitutional professor. not exactly a well—known leaver. a constitutional expert described this at the weekend as quote, "a constitutional absurdity that would weaken the position of britain's negotiations." a point taken up by a labour brexiteer. is it not true if we passed what the awards want us to do, we would be sending our negotiators back naked into the negotiation room? but a veteran tory remainer said the idea that a meaningful vote would undermine negotiations was ridiculous. it is based on the proposition that out there, on the continent, they don't know there are divisions in the cabinet. laughter. it is not known what the situation is here in the house of commons. and actually, were whispers to

and i quote everybody in the labour party is in the same thing. what the right honorable gentlemen is. with the referendum. they voted to do that. and since then they had than they had tried to go straight to brexit. they voted against the with the draw bill. they are refusing to rule out a referendum. on the vote of the british people. i had written a paper on it. with the 2% of gdp. to harnessing this. that they remain at the forefront with the greater global britain. and i think my honorable friend. they invested a round 10 million. but the reserves -- they are working on those currencies and looking at these issues in a working group together. to help the government discharge our duties more directly. thank you mister speaker. with the concerns of the government. i do not believe that you're conducting the orchestra. it will be heard. they are telling dutch businesses not to risk by uk products. the supermarket in the scotland. to remain part of the united kingdom. it's about the fears. the leader of the opposition. the question they should've

and four labour mps in this vote, we have talked about tory you lack of unity, let's talk about labourhe lords amendment, and keeping them within the european economic area which is what norway is in. they want their mps to abstain and have put forward their own amendments, about keeping some sort of access to the single market. there will be labour rebels unhappy, they want to be part of the ea. they are facing a challenge and keir starmer was talking to the andrew marr show earlier, and made the point that this is not the last opportunity mps have two vote against the government on plans for other future relationship with the eu. we have trade bills coming up in july, the trade bill is coming up and people can vote on that. he said it is not the last chance they have to express their views. the idea that this tuesday or wednesday is the last chance saloon on a single market deal is misconceived. there will be another chance with those bells and i hope we get significant victories on what matters. —— significant victories on what matters. — — those significant victories on what matter

labour think that the tories aren't doing enough.the bosses. how? taking on the bosses. do you agree with that? taking on the bosses. a really important step forward would be what we have called for — allowing workers to speak up in the boardroom and on the committees that actually set that pay. that's about workers having a voice, it is not about them having a veto over those decisions, but i think it is important we have allowed people who have got the everyday experience of work to actually have a say on these discussions when they take place. that was kate bell of the tuc. the headlines on bbc news: president trump is in singapore for an historic summit on de—nuclearisation with north korean leader, king jong—un. mr kim has already been greeted by singapore's prime minister. the landmark meeting with mr trump will take place on tuesday. tory mps are urged to rally round theresa may, as the government prepares for a series of crucial parliamentary votes on brexit. the labour leader, jeremy corbyn, announced new proposals to ensure
