on the second anniversary of the referendum vote, the international trade secretary, liam fox, told the that theresa may was "not bluffing" about her threat to quit the negotiations. he was speaking ahead of a march later by campaigners in favour of a vote on any final brexit deal. the event is being organised by the organisation people's vote, and speakers will include lib dem leader vince cable, the conservative former minister anna soubry, and labour's david lammy. we'll have more on this afternoon's march in a moment, but first, let's hear some of that interview from our political editor laura kuenssberg with the international trade secretary liam fox. 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 the negotiations, that the european union understands that and believes it. and believes she might be ready to leave the negotiating table and say, this is impossible because you're not listening? i think it has added credibility because if we

coming m, borisjohnson and liam fox coming in, so for brexiteers coming out in full force to persuadea full force to persuade us all it's a good idea to lead doctor lee. you can almost sense that they are rattled. the problem is that david davis doesn't actually address any of the hard questions, there is nothing about the airbus warning. maybe the interview was done before that, but there's nothing about the northern ireland border question, which is the biggest problem we face. but a lot of typical david davis bluster about it, saying that we will get a fantastic deal because we will get a fantastic deal because we all share the language. i'm not convinced. isn't entirely fair? he's talking about things that will change for individuals, being able to do trade deals for the old commonwealth, being a more global country. and we have to remember that this is what the country voted for, it may not have known the details but it voted to leave. the country did not defined the kind of brexit it wanted when it voted. nothing about northern ireland in here, which is a real problem in a real

liam fox, david davis, borisjohnson, her handbag a bit! all out publicly to date in a coordinated strategy to say that brexit will be great and it is a positive time for britain. it might look a bit desperate that they are still having to make those arguments two years later, like they feel they are losing the argument all have lost it. i find that rather hard to follow. they are saying what a great think brexit is and that is what the people of the country want. i talk to people in my constituency, and whether they voted to leave or not, they just want to get us whether they voted to leave or not, theyjust want to get us out whether they voted to leave or not, they just want to get us out as whether they voted to leave or not, theyjust want to get us out as soon as possible. and borisjohnson and david davis and liam fox are three superb cabinet ministers delivering brexit. your constituency voted overwhelmingly to leave, there are many where people voted by a narrower majority or voted to remain, and maybe you are not hearing the other si

that was liam fox talking. campaigners in favour of a vote on any final brexit deal will march in central london. the event is being organised by the organisation people's vote which argues that brexit is "not a done deal". the march will descend on parliament square, where speakers will include lib dem leader vince cable, the conservative former minister anna soubry, and labour's david lammy. the pentagon has cancelled two joint marine training exercises with south korea. it follows the decision earlier in the week to suspend a majorjoint military exercise between the two countries which was planned for august. the pentagon said the move was part of the agreement reached between president trump and the north korean leader, kim jong—un, in singapore earlier this month. plans to house tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in detention centres on remote american military bases are being drawn up by the us navy, according to a time magazine report. the department of defence reportedly wants to build facilities o

i expect liam fox, boris johnson, paper already in existence.ox, borisjohnson, michael gove, they all signed up to it. in effect, there will be some agonisings over wording here and there. what if the eu just rejects it? then you have to get into proper negotiations where you actually talk about things of substance. at some point the british and had to take a position on, for example, the northern irish border, customs, and that position... interestingly enough, the immigration rules after brexit, the interim period, the transition period, that is actually still, that is still being kicked down the road by cabinet. we will not talk about that until september, we are told. the irish border we should find out about on friday. they have to crystallise at some point. time is running out. they thought it was as easy as that. a couple of nhs stories knocking about. i referred when we went through them earlier about non—essential operations. and now ivf services, a number of 11.5%... down from 60% last year. —— ivf services, a number of 11.5%... down f

international trade minister liam fox says european politicians need to know that theresa may is nota bad deal. protesters are expected to take part in a rally in london's parliament square calling for the public to have a vote on any final deal. earlier on this programme, the leader of the liberal democrats, sir vince cable described the kind of vote he is looking for. we will certainly be better informed by the autumn when the vote has taken place. it is thejob by the autumn when the vote has taken place. it is the job of the government and people like myself, who are opposed to brexit, to make that case and we will do it. what is crucial if public opinion is moving. people feel very strongly it is a mess and is not being pursued in an orderly way. whether people are for brexit or against it, public opinion is showing strongly that they want the final say on the deal. a fresh effort to try to help people do more to protect the environment from plastic pollution is being launched by the bbc. sir david attenborough says he's "astonished" by the public‘s response to the issue followin

liam fox responded for the government by saying that would be wrong and that in his view explain whyocrats were such a minor party in british politics. that gives you some sense of the scale of the anger that there is around what the trump administration are doing. chris mason, thank you. the world is responding to donald trump with caution, confusion and loud words but sometimes not much action. joining us now from new york is richard haass, president of the council on foreign relations and author of a world in disarray. before we get to you, i want to play you the counterpoint to the softly—softly british approach, and thatis softly—softly british approach, and that is justin softly—softly british approach, and that isjustin trudeau over the weekend, who was speaking on american television. the idea that the canadian steel that's in military vehicles in the united states, the canadian aluminium that makes your fighter jets, is somehow now a threat, the idea that we are somehow a national security threat to the united states is, quite frankly, insulting and unacceptable. richard haa

the point liam fox was making there in the interview with laura kuenssberg if it would be unwise forg, that this is decision time in terms of the position that the british government adopts. the foreign secretary borisjohnson writing in a typically colourful style in the sun today, said people don't want some bullock —— baulk role brexit. for a lot of the public it confusing as to what stage we have reached and how things will be different after march 2019, as compared to now, and how they could be different again at the end of 2020. firstly i think the public should sell themselves this is complicated for government ministers, so it's just complicated for government ministers, so it'sjust complicated. what the foreign secretary i think we re what the foreign secretary i think were saying in his article using is typically colourful language was brexit needs to be done properly. he doesn't want a brexit which means we remain in the customs union and the single market. he doesn't want a brexit but is hard to distinguish from membership and that the battle going on in the cabinet at the

the prime minister also had face—to—face meetings with borisjohnson and liam fox, the cabinet's chiefay left parliament, her spokesman said none of them had threatened to resign. the government then published its backstop plan, comprimised to keep the cabinet together. it contains a date, the end of december 2021 — that's when the government expects the future trading relationship to be in place. and that's precise enough to keep david davis in the cabinet and it might be vague enough to get eu support. we've had reaction to the document from the eu's chief brexit negotiator michel barnier, who said, we will examine it with three questions: is it a workable solution to avoid a hard border? 0ur correspondent damian grammaticas is in brussels. just a flavour of the reaction there in brussels from those messages on social media. how has this proposal, this end day of december 21 con down there? well, welcome for the fact there? well, welcome for the fact there is a proposal on the table, but is worth same first of all because the eu has been asking this for a very long time now. it was b

international trade secretary liam fox welcomed the vote.t no change in the fundamental issue here, that is that the government cannot be forced by parliament to negotiate something that the government does not want to do. that is the key as we move forward. hopefully this takes the brexit debate into a new place. the focus is not on the legislation which, of course was designed to give us a smooth transition, but now onto the future economic partnership itself. with me is david clarke, head of policy at positive money. it‘s a think tank and pressure group that campaigns for reform of the financial system. reform may be coming whether we like it or not. what do you want to hear from the chancellor tonight? he will set out his vision for the future of the uk financial services act after brexit. he wants the uk to remain the undisputed centre for global, as. that will depend on getting a satisfactory deal for the eu, as. that will depend on getting a satisfactory dealfor the eu, with the eu. at the moment, the position of the government is tha

it is, there is speculation boris johnson or david davis liam fox might resign.will edge towards a softer brexit and they will put up with it and use words to cover up will put up with it and use words to coverup their will put up with it and use words to cover up their embarrassment. she might be keen to get rid of the troublemakers at this point but i ee, troublemakers at this point but i agree, i think they need something solid and they don't have it. what can we read into borisjohnson‘s what can i say politely, noises off? its colourful language, he talked about bog roll brexit because it was soft and yielding and long. which is disloyal and unhelpful to theresa may. but it's not crossing any sort of red lines of collective cabinet responsibility. but the business thing... that was bad. but it was a private remark everyone can pretend... the public watching that, if you are the foreign secretary at such a crucial time you cannot make private, private remarks begin and end. the independent has said we ought to get rid of boris for quite some time. he is a joke

you put liam fox had a job, what a terrible thing to do! whoever is in that role has a way to create positive aspects of brexit. there is no we can cherry pick what aspects of the single market you will keep and which once you walk away from. i think we are seeing here is the labour party be a lot of promise whatever it wants because i know they are not the ones who have to deliver it. and the other problem for the party is good northern deciduous ease and in the midlands who voted for brexit, and to and the‘s which voted the main, a balancing act that they have in iuggung balancing act that they have in juggling and juggling and maybe they would drop all the balls at some point. as kate says, it is easier for them to java because they are not responsible for it. what matters is what the government says and that is what the government says and that is not clear. it is not. and it is frustrating because the british who voted two years ago and we are still in the dark. have we lost control of oui’ in the dark. have we lost control of our stre

borisjohnson, liam fox, david davis —— ping—pong ball on top of a water fossett.hat is the point. she is still there. she is, but why would you wa nt there. she is, but why would you want to comment right now when brexit is such an absolute mess? one of the problems the conservative party has, even though they have no love or affection for theresa may, they have not settled on who her successor would be. so there is a great battle when she goes, and i suspect she will go after we have some kind of deal on brexit. next summer, i think. yes, to give her successor taken summer, i think. yes, to give her successor ta ken to summer, i think. yes, to give her successor taken to bed in ahead of a general election against labour and jeremy corbyn, but the problem is that the conservative party, kind of like the labour party after ed miliband left, there will be a battle for the heart and the ideology of the conservative party, the modernisers, anna soubrys, nicky morgans, the more socially liberal conservatives, and the more traditional, fiscal, those conservatives, the j

in an interview recorded with the bbc earlier this week, dr liam fox, the international trade secretarythe prime minister wasn't bluffing when she talked about the possibility of walking away from the negotiations without a deal. 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's essential as we enter the next phase of the negotiations that the european union understands that and believes it. i think it has added credibility because if we were to leave, the economic impact on a number of european countries would be severe. the brexit secretary david davis has said that there will be scary times ahead in those negotiations but that a good deal was likely. and using characteristically colourful language, the foreign secretary borisjohnson said voters did not want what he called a "bog roll brexit — soft, yielding and seemingly infinitely long", as he put it. in response to that, a downing street source said that the uk would be free to strike its own trade deals after 2020. and in another

that will start liam fox, the international trade secretary. is very positive because the withdrawal bill is about making sure there is legal certainty for all those businesses and other organisations that have their ways in which they operate governed by eu law. we need to get that law on to the british dutch ‘s book as that is what the withdrawal bill does. —— british statute book. the first d rafts have a british statute book. the first drafts have a lot of areas that felt i needed mending. i remember speaking in the house and this process over the past few months has brought a huge amount of work certainty. today's vault, a number of recommendations were brought into the bill. that happened last week on issues like environmental matters that people care so much about, issues like some of their citizens' rights issues that have been brought up rights issues that have been brought up in the lords and then here. and the wording of a final vote, making sure there is a meaningful vote on the final deal, number of the suggestions which were made

liam fox thing on behalf of the government the pm is not bluffing over walking away without a deal.ort of message the government should be sending out at this point? it is entirely right. when i checked the foreign affairs committee, we looked at the implications of a no deal. we were clear that no deal has to be planned for. we do not have control over these negotiations, there are two sides. and then, of course, any agreement they came to could be vetoed by the european parliament. the only responsible thing to do is to plan for no deal. but of course no deal being the worst outcome of the negotiations would then flush out all the issues that would then release all the implications for our european union partners. if there is no deal, it is bad for the united kingdom but it is even worse in absolute terms for our european union partners. it is positively catastrophic for the republic of ireland, 1 million jobs catastrophic for the republic of ireland, 1 millionjobs will be lost with our partners, if that‘s what happens. if i can with our partners, if that‘s what happens. ifi can i

where do you think he has taken this step, given liam fox and others have been suggesting an paul ryanof the house was suggesting, the real problem is china and yet he is hitting allies he might want to work with against this is classic trump, he loves to provoke, divide and conquer and challenge all the assumptions in place. since world war ii, we have had this lines which is almost unbridgeable between the us and the uk and he has thrown a hand grenade in brussels. it is very consistent with his approach, he has some arcane explanation as to why this will damage china. but the immediate impact is to damage everyone else and to put these complex trade realities are risk. it is classic trump, it is theatre, exciting and get headlines home with america and is making enemies to about europe. in terms of the practicalities, is he right to think that europe, like south korea before it, will blink first? he might be right. economically, it is a bad idea he has been consistent, he has always said america first. i see it in terms of a bigger story, which is essentially donald trump almost dec

the trade secretary, liam fox, said uk export finance was used to promote a range of environmental issuesek to talk about the use of renewables. but there was more pressure on the government over its emmissions policies later, when a minister came to the commons to answer an urgent question about a £200 million deal with the nuclear sector to drive down the costs of nuclear power and fund innovation. this announcement, though, is mostly a repackaging of existing policy. of the headlined £200 million, it seems only £10 million is new government funding. and on top of that he said funding for small nuclear reactors had been downgraded. the committee on climate change says today that the government is failing to keep up with agreed targets on decarbonisation. with this week's announcement to scrap the title lagoon, the expansion of airport capacity and the modesty of the nuclear sector deal, can he tell us — how is the government going to meet its climate change obligations? the minister rejected the claim there was no new money for the nuclear deal. he turned to the arguments about nuclear

boris johnson, liam fox and david davis all flexing their muscles in the last 2a hours, fea rful of muscles 2a hours, fearful of a brexit in name only, as they see it. incidentally, the chancellor philip hammond has been making remarks in berlin this lunchtime, saying he is in favour of a collaborative approach to brexit negotiators, not a confrontational one. where does this leave the prime minister? well, where she has been for some time. trying to hold together have cabinet, her party and oui’ together have cabinet, her party and our country. not easy. chris, thank you. chris mason at westminster. there have been sharp exchanges between president trump and other members of the g7 on the eve of the summit. president macron of france has made clear the six other countries in the group will be sticking together in their opposition to us tariffs. president trump warned the eu and canada that if they don't remove their tariffs, the us would more than match them. our diplomatic correspondent, james robbins, reports from quebec. a chateau hotel in rural quebec — the most peaceful of settings fo

greg katz, why do you think he has taken this step, given that liam fox as others have been suggestingdeed, paul ryan, the speaker of the house was suggesting — the real problem is china and yet, he is hitting allies who he might otherwise want to work with against china. well, i think this is really classic trump. he loves to provoke things, he loves to divide and conquer, he loves to challenge all the assumptions in place and for, since world war two, we have thought of this alliance is almost unbreachable between the us and europe and now, he is, like, throwing a hand grenade in brussels and it is very consistent with his approach. he has some fairly arcane explanation for why this is really going to damage china, but the immediate impact is to damage everyone else and to put all of these complex trade realities at risk so it is classic trump, it is theatre, it is exciting, it gets headlines at home with america first, and it is making enemies throughout europe. and iain martin, in terms of the practicalities of this, is he right to think that europe, like south korea before it, wil

the prime minister also had face—to—face meetings with boris johnson and liam fox, the cabinet's chiefresa may left parliament, a spokesman said none of them had threatened to resign. source close to david davis said the backstop plan had been amended and its time—limited nature spells out. ministers will discuss it this afternoon as negotiations within the government grind on. 0ur assistant political editor norman smith is in downing street. what a morning, all of this doing and froing! you get the impression it came quite close to the edge. one of mr davies' close aide said this morning we all need to calm down. why would you want to calm down? it's been a morning of extraordinary drama with mrs may summoning in the key brexiteers to arm wrestle them into supporting her backstop option, then we were told it was all settled, only to find out that david davis had been summoned back in, fuelling speculation there hadn't been an agreement and maybe he was still poised to quit. in the last few minutes sources close to david davis has said all 0k, few minutes sources close to david davis h

very interesting he sounds so quite disappointed because the levers in the cabinet, david davis and liam foxthe eu comes back... as we seen throughout this, the uk will spend a lifetime arguing about this and it was a eu and the eu will will demand even more concessions. the republicans the uk is basically —— the real problem is the uk is arguing for. if uk signed up for this backstop commit basically has committed the uk to it. the uk has done all by itself. i think they've made a mistake. just briefly, would you have preferred to seeing something? the irish border, trying to do it first. by actually putting the irish borderfirst, it enslaved the irish borderfirst, it enslaved the tensions. we should've looked at the tensions. we should've looked at the trade deal as a whole and say, 0k, what more things we need to add just to be and to make sure the irish border is as virtuous as possible? —— as frictionless as possible. it should be all done at once and the irish border will be much easier to solve afterwards. going to have to leave it there. he batted, many thanks. —— hugh bennett. the l

here's liam fox, another cabinet minister of a like mind.ch the european union would be able to keep britain and a particular arrangement, and we would be leaving the eu and a period of any subsequent arrangements by the end of the 2021 year. that was what we time ago and that is what we finally got agreed on paper today. europe has already begun reacting. the european parliament's brexit co—ordinator guy verhofstadt said it is "difficult to see" how this could be achieved. "a backstop that is temporary is not a backstop." chief negotiator michel barnier had more questions, will the uk proposal avoid a hard border, will it respect the integrity of the eu customs union? the bbc‘s adam fleming tracked barnier down in brussels, and asked him when the eu would respond officially. what do you think of the proposal? and we equivalent ijust received this proposal two hours ago and we are working on it. is it realistic? we are working on it. when your answer? the next few days. let's try and get some clarity on this with the help of bbc political co

it'll be instinctively how they react to liam fox, the trade secretary, and whose outlook, there is nothinge is nothing in this to give power to stop this process. dominic grieve would want to see that differently. there is a european coming up in if you mix time, plenty of other moments, in which buyers can be put up, but that is getting to bea can be put up, but that is getting to be a very dangerous game, indeed, because the clock is ticking on the actual date that britain leaves the european union. right, yes. not very far away. indonesian authorities say at least 180 people are still missing, after a tourist ferry sank off sumatra. the wooden vessel was licensed to carry only 60 people — just 18 survivors have been found. the ferry sank into lake toba which is one of the deepest lakes in the world. as of friday, the european union will tax billions of dollars‘ worth of american goods coming into the eu. us exports such as blue jeans, motorbikes and bourbon whiskey will be targeted. it's direct retaliation to donald trump's decision to tax european steel and aluminium products being shi

this issue of open trade, the uk hoping to have a free—trade deal with the us after brexit, and liam foxto do, counter tariffs, but he did not think any of it was a good thing, the possibility ofa it was a good thing, the possibility of a trade war. the use of national defence is the rationale for this action threatens to create a worrying global precedent. we are clear that these unjustified additional tariffs could harm consumers, hold back growth, and ultimately damage industry by driving up the price of inputs and production, and diminishing global competitiveness. we remain of the view that issues of global ove rca pacity view that issues of global overcapacity in the steel market are best solved through international collaboration, not unilateral action. there are plenty of mps, labour and some conservative, on the remain side of the arguments during the brexit referendum, who point out that having a us president who seems to be very keen on protectionism does not bode well for any future trade deal with the uk. many thanks once again, vicki. a teenager from london who became the y

we had david davis the brexit secretary doing the same yesterday alongside liam fox, another of the keye group will be sticking together in their opposition to us tariffs — president trump warned the eu and canada that if they don't remove their tariffs the us would more than match them. james robbins reports from quebec. earlier i asked our north america correspondent gary o'donoghue about the tensions that exist between president trump and other g7 allies. yes, the insults have been flying and they have been ratcheting up in the last few hours to a rather fever pitch between the president on the one hand and many of these so—called allies on the other. the other fly in the ointment, the other curveball from the president, before he arrived, is suggesting russia should be readmitted into the g7, making it the g8 all over again. of course, russia was ejected from the organisation because of its annexation of the crimea in 2014 and sanctions are still in place because of that. the president has had some support for that idea, from italy, giuseppe conte, their new populist prime minister,

let‘s cross live to the house of commons where the trade secretary liam fox is updating parliament.ules —based international trading system which supports growth and consumers and industry, to make sure this does not escalate and risk further undermining of world trade, and most importantly to protect the interests of british industry, and the use of national defence as the rationale for this action threatens to create a worrying global precedent. we are clear that these unjustified additional tariffs could harm consumers and hold back growth and ultimately damage industry by driving up the price of inputs and production and diminished global competitiveness, and we remain of the view that issues of global overca pacity the view that issues of global overcapacity in the steel market are best solved through international collaboration and not unilateral action. uk has worked hard to address the issue of overcapacity and the prime minister called for a forum of g20 members to tackle the issue and the uk will continue to work within the rules —based international trade system to tackle

here in the uk, international trade secretary liam fox said the levy was "patently absurd".rs, and us business on the receiving end. you know, if there was steel on the water yesterday travelling to the us from the uk, at five o'clock this morning uk time, that steel would now be 25% more expensive to that us manufacturing company that it was being sold to. this is actually going to damage the us economy much more, ina going to damage the us economy much more, in a way, than it would damage our economy. president trump is effectively shooting himself in the foot. he thinks it is going to save jobs. independent reports say that for every onejob he jobs. independent reports say that for every one job he saves in the us steel sector, he will lose fourjobs in the us manufacturing sector. this is not the right solution to address a global problem of global overca pacity a global problem of global overcapacity in the steel sector. it just beggars belief really. joining us now is charles de lusignan, a spokesperson from eurofer — the european steel association. thank you forjoining

and we have seen from liam fox, the secretary of state for international trade, who repeated this morningnd with the measures on things like harley—davidsons and orange juice, that the danger of thatis orange juice, that the danger of that is the potential for escalating a trade war. and then, how do you manage to pull back from that to try and ensure the situation in the future where these tariffs are removed and so that is where it is tricky politically in the short—term. as you say in the longer term, the challenge is that the british government has made great play of the prospect of a trade deal with the us after brexit. and this incident proves the gap which exists between britain and america this crucial issue with so many british jobs in the steel industry and in the supply chain as well. dr rebecca harding, are you surprised by this move from president trump? harding, are you surprised by this move from president trump7m harding, are you surprised by this move from president trump? it has been on the cards for a very long time. he was elected on the basis of a ticket which said he
