london london. rather sorry reaction to the vote m.p.'s have voted to delay the approval of this deal. for this deal what's the reaction been in london. well i can tell you what the reaction and paloma i think the labor party is quite happy that the government of course was defeated on this motion and they have always said that another extension would grant more time to scrutinize the deal that boris johnson has negotiated with the european union it would give them more time to have a closer look at it and maybe find points that they can oppose so i think half of the site in parliament that we've just seen voting for those amendments 322 votes i believe it was a 320 vote. of course quite happy for the government of course it's a huge political defeat i mean they thought today was going to be a good sized surf and crucial vote on this deal of that in the end was negotiated with brussels and lots of effort let's not forget that lots of nights of late negotiating and boris johnson was quite proud of that in the last days trying to convince the members of parliament to go for his deal and we can say that even if this vote on the deal would

it wasn't full but it was a really good atmosphere and they saw a really good habitat filling competition. —— a really good heptathlon competition. kjt has seen a great year. this is an athlete who at one stage in her career question whether she was good enough to compete at any level. she killed that imposter syndrome. people also doubted whether she had the mental strength to do it after, as you had in the packaging regime, in 2015, she had a couple of files and some people wondered whether she had what it takes to compete at the very best. she has showed she is a true champion, she had four personal bests, in the shot putt, high hurdles, javelin, and in the 800 metres, she cemented her place as the best heptathlete in the world. we caught up with her today and she had going into than in the year, she won't become pleasant as she attem pts won't become pleasant as she atte m pts to won't become pleasant as she attempts to become the first heptathlete to win the world title and the olympics in consecutive yea rs. and the olympics in consecutive years. i'm not taking anything for granted. ijust years. i'm not taking anything for granted. i just know years. i'm not taking anything for granted. ijust know how sport can go andl granted. ijust know how sport can go and i feel like my competitors have been in a situation of placing second, placing fifth, and athletes in those positions are very hungry, so in those positions are very hungry, sol in those positions are very hungry, so ijust in those positions are very hungry, so i just want in those positions are very hungry, so ijust want to continue to be the same, trying the same, act like, you know, this didn't happen, almost, when i go back to france. but for i'iow when i go back to france. but for now i am going to enjoy the moment. and perhaps not on the same scale but is there any other british interest in the events tonight? yes, we've already had a semifinals for the 1500 metres and it has been good for britain. in the first semifinal, we had a man going up against the olympic champion for londonhe was heavily bunched going into the last hundred metres but he positioned himself well to qualify for the final. he wasn't the only one to get through. we had josh kerr and jake white meant as well. it was a tactical race. they made their way through. whiteman had to go through as a fastest qualifier but britain have three athletes in that race. the manta because timothy cherry. there are 20,000 people here tonight, and that is partly because they could be when the high jump at this level. a strong contender for a gold medal downed all around me you've got qatari in flowing white robes, the royal family you've got qatari in flowing white robes, the royalfamily are here, and it has created a really good atmosphere. great to hear the stands are filling up into her. —— in doha. england have never lost against argentina in the rugby world cup, but eddiejones says they'll have to be brutal if they're to beat them again tomorrow. england are top of their pool going into the game in tokyo,
