and building on lancaster house and building on lancaster house and why that matters is if youomething has to give. there has to be some sort of movement because currently clearly lancaster house has not provided the space to move to the next phase of talks. what that meant i think was that we had got as expected the transitional phase, the two—year period, yes we got an offer of money during that two—year period, but not a specific figure, but on what is, alongside money, the key sticking point, namely eu nationals, i don't think we really moved much at all beyond a plea in effect to trust us, we will guarantee your rights and this suggestion that british courts will take account of the rulings of the european court ofjustice. as i understand it they will not have too, but they can. obviously it is a highly technical legal issue but it sounds to me as if that probably is not going to be enough to meet the sort of concerns of eu negotiators who to date have been adamant it must be the european court of justice that rules over the rights of eu citizens. that key sticking point s

we can do so much better than this as i said at lancaster house let us not see merely to adopt a model already enjoyed by other countries instead let us be creative as well as practical in designing an ambitious economic partnership which respects the freedoms and principles of the e.u. and the wishes of the british people and i believe there are good reasons for this level of optimism and ambition first of all the u.k. is the e.u.'s largest trading partner one of the largest economies in the world and a market of considerable importance for many businesses and jobs across the continent and the e.u. is our largest trading partner so it is in all our interests to find a creative solution and the e.u. has shown in the past that creative arrangements can be agreed in other areas for example it's developed a diverse array of arrangements with neighboring countries outside the e.u. both in economic relations and injustice and home affairs furthermore we share the same set of fundamental beliefs a belief in free trade rigorous and fair competition strong consumer rights and that trying to be

in my speech at lancaster house earlier this year i is the out the uk's negotiating objectives. those still stand today. since that speech and the triggering of article 50 in march, the uk has published 14 papers to address the current issues in the talks and set out the building blocks of the relationship we would like to see with the eu both as we leave and into the future. we have now conducted three rounds of negotiations. while at times those negotiations have been tough, it's clear that thank to the professionalism and diligence of david davis and michele barnier, they have made concrete progress on many important issues. for example, we have recognized from the outset there are unique issues to consider when it comes to northern ireland. the uk government, the irish government, and the eu as a whole have been clear that through the process of our withdrawal we will protect progress made in northern ireland over the recent years and the lives and livelihoods that depend on this progress. as part of this, we and the eu have committed to protecting the belfast agreement and

that is why in my speech at lancaster house, i said that the united kingdom would seek to secure a new deep, and special partnership with the european union. this should span both a new economic relationship and a new relationship on security. let me set out what each of these relationships could look like before turning to the question of how we get there. let me start with the economic partnership. the united kingdom is leaving the european union. we will no longer be the members of its single market or customs union. we understand that the single markets for freedom are indivisible for our european friends. we recognize that the single market is built on a balance of rights and obligations. and we do not pretend that you can have all the benefits of membership of the single market without its obligation. so our task is to find a new framework that allows for a close economic partnership but holds those rights and obligations in a new and different balance. but as we work out together how to do so, we do not start with a blank sheet of paper. like other external partners negotiating

out in lancaster house, article 50 letter. the negotiating guidelines that came back from the european union to a great extent me were the issues that we raised with them in the first place. keep issues that we need to look at during this relationship. this is a negotiation. during that process, there will be positions put out, and we will come to an agreement. what i'm doing today is saying, here is an opportunity for both of us, the u.k. and the eu, to come to agree to a new partnership, a partnership that has not been in place with anybody else in the past because out,he reasons i just set u but can be one that can really show a great future for the eu and u.k., for our future prosperity, for people not just in the u.k. but european union as well. jason? >> what would you say to those people who voted to leave last year and through those who believe we should've left already, turned off the direct debit, we should stop free movement straightaway and tell european judges to get lost. they have a right to feel a bit betrayed

you have a tea m lancaster house speech.tain to mirror the single market, very close on regulation and able to interact with the eu. and then you have boris johnson who wants to go his own way, with this trade agreement and free to deal with whoever they want free of regulus in. then of course is the transition, how much they are going to spend on the severance payment. that is what we are hopefully going to get on friday in florence, some detailfrom the prime minister about which approach she favours. i just wa nt to which approach she favours. i just want to show you one thing, we were watching the tv earlier this afternoon, and the cameras were trained on number ten. can you see that fellow? this rat, he runs a long past number ten, there is an analogy and metaphor here. what do they say about when the cats away? there are goes. i'm not going to go to that metaphor! that is a random excuse to play a video of a rat! there's a paradox surrounding donald trump. he's leader of a world in disarray, dealing with deadly serious

so put it together, what has she moved on from lancaster house? a bit on money. yes.t think so. on final destinations we still want this bespoke arrangement. that seems to bespoke arrangement. that seems to be what we got was a bit more welly, a little bit on money, but not a significant movement or change from lancaster house that. raises the question, is there enough here for the eu leader to say, ok, you have done enough, we are going to move on? we will find out on monday, the fourth round of talks start and there will be a european council meeting. like marketing the homework, they will decide whether there has been enough progress. some on transition, a double lock. a period of implementation up to two—yea rs. period of implementation up to two—years. but strictly time—limited. that is a nod to the likes of boris johnson. the fear of the brexiteer s is that we stick with what we have got and we carry on and we never really leave. the eu and the cbi have floated that that we carry on. she has ruled that out. saying no, two years is it. she referred to it as a per

it's a different feel to the speech made at lancaster house.of the gaps that we have seen in the negotiations in the early stages. a really strong and positive move. we hope this is the impasse in the brexit negotiations stopped, to overcome the impasse. if that happens, businesses will feel more confident. we have seen a real death in confidence as a result of not seeing concrete progress in the talks. a lot of people have said there is little detail. the tone has changed, before the general election, that was different, and for a lot of people it is a good thing. what is still missing for you that would give you greater certainty? the process we have seen todayis certainty? the process we have seen today is on the transition period. we have been asking very intensely all of the government ministers and apartments to say where is the transition period. it will now be called an implementation period. it is firmly established as government policy. i think it is a real step forward. we have asked our members walked the length is of an ideal limit

to lancaster house 1.0.elieve too. you can never point to the moment where the government transitions. this isn't quite a u-turn. this is a change of position. if you have said to brexit january, inp's in september you will be cheering along the idea that we might still be in the eu, not quite in the eu, but the single market in 2021, and we might be paying 10 billion pounds a year for that privilege, that our trade deals that we are very excited about my essentially involve photocopying the trade deals the eu has come i don't think they would have greeted that with quite the enthusiasm they are now. about the state of the city, and he seems to be optimistic the hysteria would not occur. at riskyour update, how our jobs in the city as we go to the autumn months? >> what is happening now is finance directors are putting together their plans that they will be presenting to boards at the start of next year for what they are going to do in the coming years. essentially not much has happened despite brexit, so pe

there was the lancaster house speech in january. the may government, may cabinet, and what britain was to do going forward. jonathan: this is coming from the telegraph, that theresa may will user speech to lift the possibility that the u.k. could leave early. this is of course not confirmed. this is from "the telegraph." of the back of the story, sterling's little weaker. jordan, if she raises that possibility, what are your thoughts? jordan: if she's talking about leaving before 2019 is only acceptable if it's talking about leaving the eu, not having to attend all of these meetings, on the political side of things, but if she clarifies as single market access, it's status quo really. as it is not talking about leaving the single market, if she clarifies as leaving the single market, that is huge news. jonathan: you can see that the chancellor is taken a seat and the foreign secretary boris johnson has as well. david basis -- david davis has also taken a secure that speech, we should be expecting imminently, michael. michael: it's i

was important, making very clear that there will be a transition period. —— what she said at lancaster housee most important thing was the promise to honour commitments made during the period of our membership, which obviously relates to the fact that she foresees the british contributions towards the european union budget for the end of the seven—year cycle which ends in 2020. she has not put a figure on that, though. you would not expected to do that, it is a matter for negotiation, and negotiations continued next week in brussels. it isa continued next week in brussels. it is a very congregated —— congregated thing, because people forget to talk about eu assets, and as a country which has contributed for a0 odd yea rs, which has contributed for a0 odd years , we which has contributed for a0 odd yea rs, we have which has contributed for a0 odd years, we have a claim on those too. cloudy on the fact that the uk is leaving, but concerns for those who wa nt leaving, but concerns for those who want us to leave moral quickly. —— clarity on the fact. article 50 has been invoked, and that set the

the other thing that has happened since the lancaster house speech in january is theresa may has goneeresa the conqueror, to theresa may, she could be gone any minute. she has to recast her brexit vision in the fact that the doesn't seemly that a number her previous brexit vision. -- enamored by her previous brexit vision. lot of already seen a small movements in position that the government keeps saying that talkeda move, we always about some kind of transition, but once you add them up, you were here but now you are here. something has changed. it will be interesting to see how much she confirms that, whether she moves that further and to what extent her tone has changed. pit --e has a pretty busy period coming up. she's got that, global geopolitics to deal with, and the leadership issue. all of that is kind of coming up. how different could british politics look in a few weeks time? at the beginning of september, we sit here, the government is coming back, the repeal bill to think about, there is so much on the agenda. how volatile the you think this period will be? scott: we have

as i said at my speech at lancaster house, a time of would -- a time of implementation would be in our mutual interests. there should be such a period after the u.k. leaves the eu. people, businesses, and public services should only have to plan for one set of changes in the relationship between the u.k. and eu. during the implementation period, access to one another's markets should continue on current terms, and britain should continue to take part in existing security measures. businesses would welcome the certainty this would provide. a framework for this time-limited period, which can be agreed under article 50, would be the existing structure of the eu rules and regulations. how long will be determined by how long it will take to put in would be the existing structure place a new immigration system acquired to take control of the uk's borders. during the implementation period, people will continue to be able to live and work in the u.k., but there will be a registration system, and essential preparation for the new regime. as of today, these considerations point to an implementat

if you contrast that with lancaster house, when she was deliberately much firmer...s been an active. she did try to give some reassurance today, but there is the supremacy of law, is it the uk courts or the european courts? she tried to make it notjust about tone, about the plans for the future, when they are so far undefined, they will be a slightly under the prime minister said was a breadline for the uk to have the european court ofjustice overseeing the rights of european citizens living in britain, and the europeans see the ecj not as a piece of meddlesome bureaucratic overreach orjudicial imperialism of meddlesome bureaucratic overreach or judicial imperialism but of meddlesome bureaucratic overreach orjudicial imperialism but as a kind of rolls royce judicial institution that guarantees rights. that is somewhere where britain feels like it has a workaround. you listen to the european court of justice. people in brussels will hear that, they may not be completely happy, but you put it together with theresa may's tone, her attempt to explain why britain never fe

prime minister your strategy since lancaster house seems to be being to lay out positions and then concede to what europe will agree to happen on the sequencing of talks it's happening today on money and is happening on their requirements for a transition period can you point to a single concession from the e.u. that you're on the go shooting strategy has one for you well i can say that during the new yes during the negotiations we've got at the moment there are a number of issues where we've set a position paper forward to the you and we now have agreement on a variety of the issues that we're looking at but i challenge the picture that you have actually set out to james what the united kingdom has done throughout this process is actually set out our ambition our negotiating principles and if you look i set them out in lancaster house and into the article fifty letter and actually the negotiating guidelines that came back from the european union to a very great extent mirrored the issues that we had raised with them in the first place as key issues that we needed to look at during this du

we would like to see a bit of that, and perhaps also show that after her lancaster house speech, theed somewhat. britain is not quite heading for the categorical vision of brexit that it was aiming for back then. at the same time, she is going those peopleuare back home in her own cabinet who want this unequivocal, hard brexit. there is going to be a bit of a difficult balancing act. finishing up with tony blair's interview with us earlier, you wonder what he fears more on a hard brexit or a .abor government for a former prime minister cannot back his own party. necessarily new, but it is always unusual. ,> with a man like tony blair he is stuck between a rock and a hard place at the moment. he has put forward a pretty uncover amazing view of brexit -- pretty uncompromising view of brexit. again, it is not likely to offer the greatest stability that someone like tony blair with the four -- would look for. yes, it is not great. mark: thank you for joining us. vonnie: time now for the first word news. let's check in with courtney. >> some tough talk from the president trump at the unit

well on the issue of libya was central to the meetings that took place at lancaster house behind me during the course of the afternoon a number of countries in attendance the u.k. and the u.s. of course the u.n. envoy to libya as well as france italy egypt and the u.a.e. and the all of these countries with an interest in what is happening in libya not least because of the hundreds of thousands of migrants who have made their way through north africa using libya as a gateway into europe that issue somewhat eased at the moment but talks about that also of course fears that the ongoing instability in libya will lead to a further rise in the presence of eisel in north africa groups and individuals perhaps fostering and planning attacks on international countries from libya hence the background the purpose of this meeting and the strongest message will have been received heard and received from the new un envoy for libya her son who told the meeting that there are simply too many international plans on the table to deal with the problems in libya some six or seven different plans floating aroun

be this transition which is following on from the intimidation phase outlined in theresa may's lancaster house timing but what i have learned is that boris johnson is pushing back and he is saying, make sure this last no longer than one year. that is not what is in this document. stay put because i will come back to you. well, one of the key sectors that could be affected by these leaked proposals is hospitality and tourism. 4.6 million people work in the industry, an estimated 700,000 of which are from the european union. joining me now is ufi ibrahim, the chief executive of the british hospitality association. good evening. i know that the hospitality industry has been kicking up today but you would say that because, in a sense, a lot of what you do survives on cheap labour and a lot of european nationals are prepared to come and work for the lowest wages within the law. the prime minister talked today about depressing wages by employing eu nationals but there is no evidence to support that and in fact the evidence suggests otherwise. the truth is that in the united kingdom at the moment we

speech will take place in florence and is the most significant speech theresa may has made since lancaster houseramework of the government policy. essentially what the prime minister is doing, she will show some love for europe by going to what number 10 is describing as the historic heart of europe. really, what she is doing by going to the birthplace of the renaissance is to illustrate her point that the uk is leaving the eu but it is not leaving europe. what she wants to do in this speech is show how the uk wants to form what she is calling a deep and special partnership with europe, and by doing that maybe you can unlock change, change the atmosphere in these brexit talks that are not going anywhere. is there any substance? she will make clear that the transition period, the implementation phase, will not be used to achieve membership through the back door but there has been a shift in tone. she may illustrate the point by saying we will not stay in the european economic area, there has been talk of that but she has to illustrate what david davis and philip hammond have been saying, which is

in my speech at lancaster house earlier this year i set out the u.k.'s negotiating objectives those still stand today since that speech and the triggering of article fifty in march the u.k. has published fourteen papers to address the current issues in the talks and set out the building blocks of the relationship we would like to see with the e.u. both as we leave and into the future we've now conducted three rounds of negotiations and while at times those negotiations have been tough it's clear that thanks to the professionalism and diligence of david davis and michel barnier we have made concrete progress on many important issues for example we have recognised from the outset there are unique issues to consider when it comes to northern ireland the u.k. government the arash government and the e.u. as a whole have been clear that through the process of our withdrawal we will protect progress made in northern ireland there was a very spirited to resume a talking in florence she said that they could be leaving the e.u. but not leaving europe and the u.k.

she gave during the referendum campaign, although that was not reported anywhere, than it was lancaster houseion, as far as i can see, for two years, while we work out what arrangement we are going to have beyond that. she was dressing free trade. we cannot have a position where we are saying to the americans, the japanese and all kinds of people, the filipinos, that we wa nt kinds of people, the filipinos, that we want a free trade agreement with you and then start negotiating with the europeans on the basis of putting new barriers in place between ourselves and our biggest market. she covered that, covered a lot of other points as well. it was reasonably reassuring. i think europeans in our partner countries will think, well, we can start talking about all of this. british business, i hope, will be considerably reassured. there is no mad sudden step going to be taken. the very fact you quite like this speech will probably mean that a lot of brexiteers do not like it. we‘ve already heard from nigel farage, talking about it as a betrayal, saying with a two year transitional period it will mea

it is in line with the lancaster house speech, the only difference between them is the detail of the. there will be costs of leaving europe, we have discussed those during the referendum but also benefits. if we stayed to close we cannot get any of the benefits. taking a step back, i don't envy theresa may, she has a really difficultjob on her hands. i disagree with you both about boris johnson, this was absolutely in getting his vision out there before theresa may so he could say, i have had a go, i said it should be optimistic! she has her cabinet audience, to try to keep everybody on side, so far has them agreeing to a transition term, actually, as henry said, what about going further forward ? henry said, what about going further forward? what are the future trade terms, she cannot get her cabinet to agree on that, and the use side, who she absolutely has to try to unlock this deadlock with them, she will talk about the bill, making progress towards that, citizens rights, but listening to what michel barnier has said yesterday, i think it is badly possible that the welcome back a

the prime minister was clear in her lancaster house speech when she set out the government's policy thation period. she was clear right from the beginning you can't go from being in the eu to being fully outside itover night. you need the implementation period. there is a discussion about practical measures about how quickly you can have that new immigration system in place. how quickly you put in place other systems and also we won't know what systems are required for example with trade until we know what the final trade deal will be. so there is going to be an implementation period and clearly one of the things for david davis and his team to thrash out is for how long and what the terms of that should be, but we need to make sure we respect the result of the referendum and get control of our laws and our immigration system and the amount of machine we pay to the eu so that doesn't continue in the future. mark harper thank you very much indeed. mps are set for a very long night. the first, i suspect, much indeed. mps are set for a very long night. the first, isuspect, of many to come.

reminding the cabinet that she is the one who has set out brexit strategy as she articulated in her lancaster housely that boris will be boris, and also observing quite sharply that when it comes to this £350 million, these contested money, what sort of sums are given to what areas in the public sector after brexit is a matter for the whole cabinet, not a matterfor individual ministers. when you put all that together, that seems to me a fairly determined slap down from boris johnson. whether it will make any difference, we'll have to see. let's move on to oliver robins, the most senior official in the government's brexit department, he is leaving his job, what can be read into it? you can read it a number of ways. the downing street version is the his job was frankly too big. he was running the brexit department as the same time running the brexit negotiations and this was too big a task that anyone. he will now be working to theresa may by theresa may to strengthen her hold brexit negotiations. that said, there are plenty of people in whitehall who have been flagging up these strained personal rel

she provided a lot of clarity, and in many cases it was restating what you said in the lancaster housean union in two yea rs, leaving the european union in two years, article 50 has been triggered, that is a fact, that we will be leaving at thatjuncture, but what she also did was set a positive and optimistic tone in terms of britain's future as a sovereign nation, but also a conciliatory tone towards the european union, making clear that we wa nt to european union, making clear that we want to part an amicable terms, not least because we want very different things. jean—claude juncker‘s speech, the state of the european union address last week, two weeks ago now, made clear that he wants to ta ke ago now, made clear that he wants to take the eu in an integrationist direction, getting all the countries tojoin the euro, more pooling sovereignty. we simply do not want that, and that is why we voted to leave. we said we want different things, we wish you well, let's part amicably, and that is what the speech was about. that is the easy bit — speech was about. that is the easy bit - the sp

when she made her lancaster house speech and said were coming out of the customs union and single market all up in the air. we don't know if she will survive. she probably will, but i think she has to make it clear that if the eu does not play ball, there is a clear path for britain under which we will be fine. what kind of society does the u.k. want to be and who will lay out that vision? >> this is a key issue. if we were to get a jeremy corbyn led labor government, i think we would have a different vision of britain that would not be a low tax vinton. he may intensify regulations. i think britain may find it difficult to do well in those circumstances. the logic is to go for the singapore model. i doubt true much whether a labor government could do that. what is the vision for the prime minister? like portugal using ireland for corporations, or follow what she laid out clearly, looking after the households that are worse off that may have voted for rigs it -- brexit? >> she is in the business of trying to garner support within the parliamentary party and wider. i'm not sure she has at
