from the police officer's association , san francisco firefighters, the labor council, and the labourers union came out and complain about the process. they were here, if you listen to them, and now they have filed their labor practice. conditioners, we have 3.4 billion in this plan. all this money is going to the participants. none of that is city money. you have 30,000 participants in this plan. this is a very serious supplemental retirement plan. what is obvious to me after watching this plan for almost four and a half decades, is something wrong happens this time. the remedy, if you will not do meet and confer, the remedy must be something like having our staff come out and periodically talk to representatives of the unions and representatives of the participants put -- both active and retired to explain what the process is. >> time. >> there has to be better communication, commissioners. >> thank you. >> i am a city retiree. pardon my ignorance. a lot of this is very complex and dense detail that i haven't been able to keep up with, but i do have some concerns. if you go from credential,

astonishing, when i think of last summer, and they were ready at that point putting that union approaching labour mps, but it presumably for political reasons decided to hold back. now it appears desperate. she has in a matter of days to go before the vote next week. and certainly the labour mps that i've spoken to suggested those that i've spoken to suggested those that leave packing seeds that potentially feel they might want to deliver brexit, or help deliver brexit, because that's what their constituents expect, they feel that even these offer, on workers' rights and environmental protections much of which they want, if it's a sort of which they want, if it's a sort of permanent guarantee therefore it, it doesn't go far enough. and they've made clear that actually, if they're going to back the deal, which could still happen down the road to quiz her we get to it becomes a much darker choice. they would not do it on tuesday, because why would they extend the political capital at this point in their own party by backing something that theresa may is going to absolutely, that's going to be a cru

union. that is what labour wa nts a customs union. prime minister is extremely cautious of. hats a new deal brexit, which would see us leaving without future terms sorted out. those votes would happen, and it would see whether there is a majority for anything in the commons right now. frankly some people think that whatever happens there was not a majority for any option. if none of that comes up with an answer, john major is saying, we need a second referendum. the idea of indicative votes is one that is picking up a bit of traction at westminster. as a potential way to try to find some way forward. the trouble with the idea of indicative votes is presumably there is no guarantee that any of these options would end up commanding a majority. they tried it before the house of lords reform, and ended up with votes that suggested none of the options had a consensus. this does seem to be a subject lacking consensus. exactly. the feeling just 110w consensus. exactly. the feeling just now is there is no option with a clear majority in the c

labour party is the same, we are a members led party. at the right time we members led party. at the right time we will come forward with the proposals from the membership, from the trade unions, union movement. at that stage we put everything on the table and when i say everything, i mean everything. we will have a discussion and we will come up with a manifesto. what that might mean at that point in time, i really haven't got any idea. but there will be pressure from all sides because this country is split on brexit. would you accept you can't go into a general election with the ambiguity that labour is followed until this point? you would either have to be that we are remaining or leaving? if we are successful and i sincerely hope we are, it's that ethnic successful in getting a general election, sooner rather than later, next week rather than next month there will not be any beauty. we will have the discussion, our manifesto will set out clearly what the position is with regard to brexit. good to see you, thank you for sparing your time. we will be back at the top of the hour. if you'rejustjoining us, you can see the result of the confidence motion. the government has won

the point i was making is that the labour position is we want a comprehensive customs union with theh a say in how those trade arrangements are made, and we put that point very clearly to her. i explained that in the debate in the house yesterday. did you get the sense she was serious about the talks orjust going through the motions? she was trying to unite her party rather than going through a cross—party approach, do you think she was serious? i am prepared to meet the government again on the whole issue, on the principle that we want to ensure there is a protection ofjobs in this country and there is not a cliff edge exit from the eu at the end of march, because the that which created industry after industry, particularly where there are supply chains but also supplies of medicines, supplies to the food processing industry, all of those things, any disruption on the 29th of march leads to massive problems for people across the country and i think we have to be serious about this. there has to be an agreement. as far as you are concerned, has she taken no deal off the table? parlia

could mean staying in the single market and the customs union — known by some as norway plus — or a different variation of that, advocated by the labourth the single market. or even a cleaner break, a basic free—trade deal — a bit like canada has. it's worth pointing out that none of these would really change the withdrawal agreement itself, but mps might vote for a deal that sets out a clearer future direction. but if none of that works, well, we know that labour wants an election. and it says it will at some stage demand a vote of no—confidence in the government to try to get one. but there are also growing calls for another referendum to give the people another say now they know what the options are. that could of course lead to no brexit at. lead to no brexit at all. but again, the default position in uk and eu law is that, if mps can't agree on any alternative, then — deal or no deal — brexit will happen on march the 29th, in just 75 days' time. with me now is our assistant political editor norman smith. it's all about the numbers. any evidence of the sea change that theresa may requires, it might happen. i think the blunt and sa
