mrs. davis referred to this room as the state dining room, partially to distinguish it from the family dining room down in the basement below where i am standing right now. the davises took most of their ordinary meals down there. this would have been reserved for special occasions, holiday meals with the family, parties, banquets and sometimes military meetings. we have the table, which is an original piece, set up for a military meeting. we happened to know a number of details about one particular meeting that took place here around this able on april 14th of 1862. the topic of discussion was the union army siege of yorktown, virginia. the men present at the discussion were president jefferson davis, george wythe randolph, the confederate secretary of war. randolph was also a grandson of thomas jefferson. davis and randolph were meeting four confederate generals. robert e. lee, joseph johnson, james long street and gus ta vary smith. union general george mcclelland had an army at yorktown. the

one of them is if anyone disagrees with mr. davis, he resents it. this is his wife talking. , my husbando said does not understand the art of politics and would not practice them if understood. that relates to what i was saying earlier. was aclear davis top-notch u.s. secretary of war. what she was getting at was he did not clear dust in a care for the politicking. he was not that kind of man. he was not the kind of politician. he did not do it. i hope that gives some feeling leastis' character, at out of the arena with other men. it is clear with people considered his social inferiors, women, children, black people, he was very generous, kind, tolerant, indulgent, even. other men come he could be sharp. our next room is the bedroom. it was shared by jefferson davis and his wife. that was little unusual for this time period because it wealthy married couple would tend to have a separate beds and bedrooms. as we have seen, jefferson davis converted the other bedroom to his office. so he and his wife shared this office and this bed. the mattress is mo

are you confident, mr davies?wo years, he has been the man in brussels, leading the negotiations with the european union that would shape the uk's future outside it. at the prime minister's country residence on friday, where theresa may's top team gathered to hear her final plan, he was, in his words, the odd man out. it would put the uk ona the odd man out. it would put the uk on a path to close to the eu for his liking. the driving was primarily from number 10, rather than my department. that is fair enough, it is not the first time there has been a debate by a goal margin. as you say, i lost the argument. it's not just that i lose the argument in something which is in somebody else's department, the point is that i was the person who had two presented to parliament, to the european union, to everybody else. ifi european union, to everybody else. if i don't believe in it, i won't do as good a job at somebody that does. in his resignation letter, he said the current trade policy and tactics was making it less and

this is what mr davies had to say this morning. essentially to policies and tactics.milar, but the same. that will provide all sorts of problems when it comes to... the return of control to parliament. secondly the customs arrangements there will be taxes, tariffs for the european union. that will be a problem in terms of control of our laws. thirdly, the tactic i am worried that the european union will take and ask for more weight for more and i think we have to be tougher with them. if you see the prime minister's proposal is an allusion, is that really leaving at all? that is that really leaving at all? that is the question we argued about last week. i don't think so. as i said in my letter, i hope she is right and i am wrong. it will be down to the fine details i think but having watched this process and having been involved in this process in the last couple of years, i worry about the fine detail and that it will not work out the way that we hope. the health secretaryjeremy hunt said he felt a sense of great loss following his decision to quit. this is a big los

in his resignation letter mr davis said "the current trend of policy and tactics" was making it "look you said, be a risk, at least, of delivering a poor outcome, so i was very clear on friday, and i took two days to think through some, for me, very important decisions, and i wa nted very important decisions, and i wanted to talk to my chairman, the president of my association, that is what conservatives do, and make a decision. i consulted my wife, we made a decision. this policy has got a number of weaknesses, and it is not as though it is somebody else's responsibility which i can share, i would be front and centre delivering this policy, explaining it to the house, persuading the house it was right, then delivering it with the european union, and frankly, just as it was known that there were what the policy was, it was also known that i had concerns about it, it would not have been a plausible thing to do, and i would not have done a good job. one of the things i said to the prime minister is i hope you are right and i am wrong, but if thatis you are right and i am wrong, but if t

i suspect the other ministers at the department for exiting the european union will follow mr davieson for that is that the ministers appointed to that department are true believers in the hard brexit. could it be that he just didn't feel that he could sell this deal to the eu 27? that is also a possibility. it could be that he has been... i was going to say deeply involved in negotiations, but i think he has met michel barnier a number of times this year, but i am pretty surprised, to be honest. the idea that you would sign up to something and then two days later say maybe we might not get what we want. the negotiations on this version of what britain wants have yet to start. it seems an odd position if that is his position. but it shows how perilous the situation is, given it has taken two use... to get —— two years to get the collective deal. and now you have this resignation, and once again, the divisions within the conservative party are plain for all to see. exactly, and as we were saying, it is the equivalent of having a massive row in the tunnel before going on the. it is eff

theresa may was making this gamble that she could afford to lose the likes of mr. davis or mr. because the numbers in the conservative party are not there to unseat her. they may be there to challenge her leadership, but probably not unseat her. maybe the government is more unsecure when -- then you think. i think that's for collected in the market. guy: thanks very much indeed. david merritt joining us. take a look at this chart. this is volatility. we are, when you look at sterling, barely pricing any price action. this is an indication of how the market sees the brexit story via the prism of the cable rate. the long-term average on this over the charts we've got here, 7.77. it's currently trading 7.35, so below average. the market isn't pricing any fireworks. is the market misreading this story? the cio of investment management joins us on set. your thoughts? guest: my perspective is we take an insular focus with these developments. with regards to brexit. we can say what we want but with the eu agree? will it be possible to strike a deal that's acceptable? the eu might cons

dominic raab took over from david davis as brexit secretary when mr davis quit in protest at the government'srade plans, the so—called chequers agreement. theresa may's announcement came minutes before mr raab appeared at a session of the brexit committee alongside the uk's lead negotiator and head of the prime minister's europe unit, 0lly robbins. he was challenged over the trade plan. even department ministers did not see the detail until thursday, the details were kept from them, is that correct? i do not think so, no, the prime minister met a number of her colleagues over there days and weeks running up to that crucial cabinet meeting, and the proposition that contained in the white paper published a few days after drew many respects on those conversations including collective agreements reached before the meeting. i do not think it's a secret to say probably the largest meeting she had on the full range of issues was with the secretary of state predecessors. his chief of staff at the time said there was a decision which at the highest level to circumvent the department imperative they ha

restate the fact, we haven't seen two cabinet ministers resign in 24 hours since 1982 as well arguably mr. davis and mr. johnson will both be marginalized in any way within cabinet. whether they were in the cabinet or behind the scenes, whether mrs. may splits the brexiteers, that will remain to be seen. that is the pure mass that mrs. may is working on to get a deal through and, indeed, of course to keep her job as well because it needs to go to the 1922 committee which could force a no confidence vote and of those 48 votes we don't believe they have come forward as of yet because key brexiteers, dominic raab who is the new brexit ministry are all at the moment in government. let's see what mrs. may has been saying in parliament in the last 24 hours. >> what we are proposing is challenging for the e.u. it requires them -- it requires them to think again to look beyond the positions they have taken so far and agree on a new and fair balance of rights and obligations because that is the only way to meet our commitment to avoid a hard border between northern ireland and ireland, without damaging t

two other ministers resigned along with mr davis. he says the prime minister's plans will undermine negotiations with brussels and that the uk parliament would not win back powers from brussels after brexit. so does he have a point? well, here are the key points of what was agreed. the uk will "maintain a common rulebook for all goods" with the eu, including agricultural products, after brexit. a treaty will be signed to avoid friction at the uk—eu border, including northern ireland. a so—called "joint institutional framework" will interpret uk—eu agreements. cases will still be referred to the european court ofjustice to interpret eu rules. the borders between the uk and eu will be treated as a "combined customs territory". the uk would apply domestic tariffs and trade policies for goods intended for the uk, but charge eu tariffs for goods heading into the eu. the plan says it will end the free movement of people, "giving the uk back control over how many people enter the country." a "mobility framework" will be set up to allow uk a

davis says mr. giuliani seems to be confused.ere is giuliani on "fox news sunday." >> the court order allows us to respond without waiving privilege if we have to defend him. that's exactly what we were doing. reporter: abc news is reporting a joint defense agreement between cone and trump is over. we asked mr. davis if he could speak with us on the phone and do an interview. he said he was unable to comment beyond the statement he sent us. reporter: thank you. eric: let's go to chicago. andrew, how do we know this claim is true as giuliani claims someone fiddled with the tape. >> i don't think anyone knows whether the tape has been fiddled with. i wouldn't put anything past him. even if these tapes prove to be admissible, they still have major problems. the tapes aren't complete. it's apparently a tape of a tape. and you have big segments of the tape that can't be heard. remember there is still nothing illegal that was discussed in those tapes. i realize why everybody likes it. we have the president of the united states talking

individual in charge but the policy needs to get back to what it was before the status quo and after mr davis'sdeparture the prime minister quickly promoted a junior minister dominic robb to replace him whether she will last long enough to appoint a replacement for boris johnson is uncertain paul brennan al-jazeera. live to westminster now and speak to others there is laurin sydney laurence the reason may is currently at a meeting of her party where she said to have been given a warm welcome so there's this mean that there probably won't be a leadership contest. well no i wouldn't necessarily assume that it's usual in these meetings when the prime minister goes and speaks to it with a nine hundred twenty two committee it's the group of. rank and file backbench conservative members of parliament when when the leader comes in it's just traditional for them to bang the desks in appreciation unless they're really really unpopular and so clearly she does still have a lot of support in the room who who bang the rest went when she came in but make no mistake she's really starting now to have to fight

all under the offices not of a slightly rebellious mr. davis, but all held very close by mrs.mber 10. >> a block and public critique, that you negotiator said he would never accept her customs plan. it the british prime minister has to go to the drawing board 12 weeks before a brexit agreement is due to be signed. what does he take issue with? proposed isesa may that brussels outsources status collection. there is simply no precedent of that of a country outsourcing its data collection to a third country. the eu says this is impractical. this will create bureaucracy for companies and there is no precedent and it cannot accept it. a banks, london proposes joint board between the eu and britain on banking regulation. a regulatoryu has autonomy, its own rulebook for banks. bank givingcentral its policy rate unchanged, defying market expectations and sending the lira sharply lower as the president tightens its grip on the economy. it seems the investors are losing faith and the central bank's independence. rate hikeexpecting a by at least 100 basis points and the bank failed to de

mr. davis: thank you, mr. speaker. i rise to express strong opposition to this resolution which is nothing more than political posturing. this nonbinding resolution does nothing to control increases in health care premiums. republican actions have wreaked havoc in the health care market, driving up health care costs for americans. especially older americans. this nonbinding resolution does nothing to limit skyrocketing drug prices after giving tens of millions of dollars in tax cuts to the drug industry. chicago fire department was in to see me this week, and they talked about the high cost of drugs. for example, the cost of nitroglycerin, tripled over four years from $37 to $120. the cost of the lock zone, more than doubled during this time period. if the chicago fire department is having trouble paying for pharmaceuticals, then you can imagine what smaller entities would be experiencing. this resolution does nothing to increase jobs. nothing to help parents support the high cost of childcare and college. it is, indee
