temporary schedules today, removing hundreds of trains from the timetable, as our political editor laura kuenssbergtuck on platforms for hours. just disaster. waiting for trains that never come. i was supposed to start work at half seven but i don't think i'm going to get there until eight now. travellers wondering what's going on and who to blame. a new timetable sent services around the country haywire. northern, great northern, southern and thameslink. tonight, network rail owned up. i'm saying it's our fault. i'm recognising network rail‘s position in that, which is that we are to blame and actually we have to fix it for everybody. order. statement, the secretary of state for transport. but that is not how more and more mps see it. the transport secretary promised an enquiry and some form of compensation today. mr speaker, i would like to be able to tell the house that there is an easy solution or that the department could simply step in and make the problems passengers are facing go away. if there was a way to do so, i would do that without hesitation or a moment. but ultimately this solution

our political editor laura kuenssberg is at westminster. the ayes to the right, 324.. they got there, but it wasn't pretty. should parliament get more power over brexit if the final deal is sunk? the ayes to the right, 324... only in the last ten minutes, the promise of a compromise on that seemed to keep both sides of the restive tory party on board. the government has realised that it must have an amendment, a further amendment to the bill, which deals with parliament's role in the event of there being no deal. getting some unity, and inevitably having some degree of give—and—take, is part of the process. remainers have been pushing and pushing to give mps more say if it all goes wrong. but the government for hours had been resisting giving parliament more power if the brexit deal is sunk. have you told the prime minister you're resigning, sir? i will be issuing a statement shortly. it started badly, with a government minister quitting so he could make the case for giving parliament more control over brexit, too. i urge my parliamentary colleagues to follow my lead

laura kuenssberg, bbc news, brussels.y arnand menon, who‘s director of the independent research body "uk in a changing europe". thank you very much for giving up some of your time this evening. what about these words? last call, late cards in the table, difficulties. what we read into all of these comments was yellow i suppose we read into this that it‘s a negotiation. actually, we don‘t need to come to a final agreement until december, but the member states are trying to put pressure on us today and in particular put pressure on her cabinet to come to an agreement next week and it makes their life easier if the cabinet comes out with a clear green line next friday. if they don‘t wish not assume it‘s game over. we still have time with the cabinet can meet again. they are trying to set the running, basically. there was a sense that they have a lot on their plate in they have a lot on their plate in the european union said it would like to do with brexit as quickly as possible and this waiting game we seem to be playing wit

laura kuenssberg, bbc news, brussels.e heard, a deal was reached in the early hours of this morning at the eu summit on how to manage the issue of migrants. it comes as around 100 migrants are missing after a boat sank off the coast of libya today. eu leaders agreed to set up secure processing centres inside and outside the eu. they also agreed to strengthen controls on borders and provide more money for turkey and countries across north africa to help stop the flow of migrants. our europe editor katya adler is at the summit and she said that despite marathon talks, not everyone is happy about the deal. in the end you can say that what leaders agreed on migration they pretty much failed on two big fronts. trying to prevent poor migrants entering europe illegally and trying to stop migrants dying at sea, as and trying to stop migrants dying at sea , as we and trying to stop migrants dying at sea, as we saw today on the coast of libya. the idea behind the processing centres is to put economic migrants off even trying to com

our political editor laura kuenssberg has been watching developments at westminster. government on what happens if parliament says no to the final brexit deal that's negotiated with european union. they wanted a legal guarantee they'd be able to send ministers back to the negotiating table to try again. theresa may and her ministers were adamant they need the option of no deal, of walking away. this fight‘s been about who's really in charge, parliament or number ten? last week, the prime minister and her team swerved a defeated by promising to listen again about what should happen if there's no deal. secretary david davis. but only a last—minute statement from from her brexit secretary gave an escape route for both sides to walk away from a serious clash. we debate, argue, make our cases with passion, but we do it to a purpose, and that is to deliver for our people, not just to please ourselves. they decided to leave the eu, and whatever the eu think about that, we will do it. it is unthinkable that any prime minister would seek to force through a course of action wit

laura kuenssberg, bbc news, westminster. will take to our transport correspondent, victoria fritz, who's at heathrow — first to our chief political .to our chief political correspondent, vicki young, who's at westminster is there much doubt that there will bea is there much doubt that there will be a government went night?|j is there much doubt that there will be a government went night? i don't think so. the conservatives today feel pretty confident. although there are rebels on their own side they believe that is more than cancelled out by labour mps willing to support the project. the snp have now decided to abstain even though they say they do agree with expansion of heathrow they do not agree with this particular option. i think the government is feeling pretty confident. but you can hear from the depth of feeling amongst mps who are affected by this, how much it means to them, we know that because people like the conservative mp who resigned hisjob because people like the conservative mp who resigned his job as because

laura kuenssberg, bbc news.peak to roy lilley, a former nhs trust chairman and now a health commentator. thank you for being with us on bbc news. how important their day in office for the health service? news. how important their day in office for the health service ?m news. how important their day in office for the health service? it is a very important day because the nhs has had flat line funding since 2010, since fundamentally the world banking crisis. prior to that it has gone up by about 4% a year. most trusts are pushing forward a wave of debt. there are 4 million people on the waiting list. and there is a whole load of other things in the pipeline. for example, a pay rise for the nurses which no one seems to really understand how that is going to be funded. there is all of that on top of the growth as well. the recognition that the nhs needs more money is welcome. the implication of what you are saying is that the government is going to have to revisit the amount it is allocating, and it may need to allo

has now cleared its final parliamentary hurdle and is set to become law. 0ur political editor laura kuenssbergoops. we voted to leave the european union, so the government's trying to transfer all european law into british tradition before there is a final deal. but the tories have already come to blows over who is really in charge if things go wrong at home. a small but noisy group of tory mps have been pushing the government on what happens if parliament says no to the final brexit deal that's negotiated with the european union. they wanted a legal guarantee they would be able to send ministers back to the negotiating table to try again. theresa may and her ministers were adamant they need the option of no deal, of walking away. this fight has been about who is really in charge, parliament or number ten. last week, the prime minister and her team swerved defeat by promising to listen again what should happen if there is no deal. secretary david davis. but only a last—minute statement from her brexit secretary gave an escape route for both sides to walk away from a serious clash. we debate, w

here's our political editor, laura kuenssberg. tory rebels held their fire. not defeat theresa may because they believed they had a personal promise from her herself from the prime minister's owner in a private meeting with them, packed into her office during the debate, that there would be a change. they believed she gave them a guaranteed there would bea gave them a guaranteed there would be a concession. as you heard there, the government minister saying all they have really promised is further discussions. number ten tells me tonight the likely implication is of a change. but there are no guarantees around the place. the big point is that theresa may has got this far by having to juggle both sides. having to give a little bit too remainers here at and a little bit to brexiteers on the other side. there is a loss of bad feeling and a sense that trust is really breaking down. that is potentially very bad news for them to turn. also making the news: french president emmanuel macron has intervened in the row over a rescue boat trying to bring migrants ashore

claiming that scotland's voice was being ignored in the brexit debate. 0ur political editor laura kuenssberg farce ? what promises have you made to the tory rebels? laughs a bit of pantomime? i mean, it's a beautiful... i wanted a quiet walk to work, that's what i wanted! you might not be blamed for wondering if it looks a bit like that. but it's the woman who lives in downing street who's the one trying to keep it all together. reporter: can you really please both sides, prime minister? she's the one trying to stick to promises that perhaps can't all be kept. but for theresa may, it's certainly not a laughing matter. there may now be a meltdown. they're not actually my words, but those of the foreign secretary. even as his fellow cabinet ministers are preparing the government's negotiations. joking apart, listen carefully. this is theresa may committing to think again about giving parliament more power if they vote down the eventual deal with the european union. i have agreed this morning with the brexit secretary that we will bring forward an amendment in the lords, but there are a number
