yes and that is why nigel farage was talking about the referendum, into what?it is not right to say we would go into what we had before. i would agree entirely, the decision has been made, europe is moving on and brexit will happen. thank you all very much indeed. "why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?" that, according to the washington post, is what donald trump today uttered during a meeting aimed at finding a cross—party deal on immigration. this revelation comes hot on the heels of michael wolff's book on the trump white house. a bit like any tweet by the president, fire and fury has caused a stir the ramifications of which may not truly be understood for some time to come. what we do know is that a bad tempered tiff between the president and his former white house advisor steve bannon over the contents of wolff's book has changed the dynamics of the us political climate with his departure this week from breitbart news. michael wolff is with us for his very first british tv interview, joining us from new york. did you feel wh

do you think the party or any party with this view can succeed, without nigel farage? the mel. they can't cut through? i think that is right. i think that is why he wants to have this this new movement away from ukip. it is worth remembering that backin ukip. it is worth remembering that back in 2014, ukip won the european union elections in this country, which was extraordinary, so obviously that was, but it has gone, i think ukip's time is over. 0k. let us go now to the financial times again and this time the us shut down. i thought this happened all the time. it has only happened four times all the time. it has only happened fourtimes in 25 all the time. it has only happened four times in 25 year, the difference one party the republicans are in control of both houses, so thatis are in control of both houses, so that is unusual. what is going on? they have failed to agree to roll over the agreement to keep funning the federal government. without that, it means that apart from the very basic law enforcement and the military, everything shuts down, they can't pay the w

it seems to have taken nigel farage by surprise as well because he commit first of all to say we shouldum and immediately, unusual bedfellows for him, nick clegg, andrew adonis and vince cable said he is talking sense. the remoaners as he would say! then there was a subtle shift. this through to ukip style he was immediately condemned by his own party saying this was a ridiculous thing to do but it had an immediate impact. the bookies have propped the odds from 10—1 to 5—1 on the second referendum and we talked about the manner for which had 55% and the pawn december had 53% in favour of a second referendum, so perhaps that is despite the government saying there won't be won and despite the labour position, perhaps that is more talk that comes from an unusual source. it is in the guardian as well, we can show your front page, the same story. the way they bid it is hoped to raise, i suppose it depends on which side of the argument you're wrong. when he said it in the interview he said maybe, just maybe there should be a second referendum and sounded like he was just chucking it out.|j se

nigel farage is right in his feeling that i'iow farage is right in his feeling that now we are in thes to keep his people hungry. let's go for another shot at this and see what happens. do you think our relationship with donald trump could be a problem? this is partly about the visit all know visit, whether he comes here or not. he is not coming to open a new embassy but he could still come for a state visit. i am getting aid bid visit the —— worried about this taste of this man, his bad language and extraordinary demeanour and decisions may at bully not be in our own interest. there are so many issues on which we need to talk to the us, climate accord, the iran nuclear deal, and so many others that i think we need to get to a space where we can find some accommodation with this man. indeed, france seems to be able to do it. to welcome him. he has taken -- been taken to so many countries... what is brilliant about the united kingdom, this was not supposed to be. for american division of us is that everybody is polite and have a cup of tea. —— for americans, the vision of us. as far as

i think the fearfrom nigel farage and being. that's right.ea that there might bea campaign is the idea that there might be a form that still sees britain in the customs union and single market. he is part of this push back and there is a lack of definition from some of the leave aside about what they are seeking. that's part of the problem. i'm not too sure how interested many of the readers will be in the process of this story but in terms of the details it's not going to go away and will continue to run and run as and will continue to run and run as a story on the front page of the 0bserver but i'm not sure it's worthy of a front—page, in terms of every little bit of it. the front page of your paper the mail on sunday and a story about the current ukip leader henry bolton, or really his girlfriend talking about the fiancee of prince harry meghan markle and a series of text messages. it follows on from the farage story. here is his former party, they seem to have a new leader every week and the leader is seen to run into also some personal i

do you think they can survive without a character like nigel farage?.” think they are employed in, quite frankly. i think nigel farage will be back on our screens because he does not like to spell away. did he ever leave ? does not like to spell away. did he ever leave? there is an organisation called leave means leave, i suspect that he will take that over. now, the times. trust in social media hits record low amid fears over fake news. it is interesting that mainstream media, a bump in people 's trust of mainstream media, tv, radio and newspapers. this talks to all sorts of things about twitter and other social media, people don't necessarily trust it. you could argue it is an encouraging story because people are waking up to the fa ct because people are waking up to the fact that fake news exist and one of the main platforms for it is facebook. the trouble is, you are comparing mainstream newspapers and television is with facebook is not comparing like with like as a source, a lot of people don't know it. betting if you open up facebook, it. betting

we will hearfrom nigel farage after ten.nd arguably before then. i wouldn't say it has beenin before then. i wouldn't say it has been in meltdown as such. we have had worse situations. we had to have an egm in 99 when nigel farage called one to remove the then leader. we have experienced these situations in the past, and we will survive. i have every confidence we will go on and survive. we still don't have an exit from the eu. brexit still hasn't happened. u nfortu nately, brexit still hasn't happened. unfortunately, it appears to be led bya unfortunately, it appears to be led by a rather weak and diffident leader in theresa may, and while she is they're dragging out the transition period, there was most certainly a space for ukip in the political arena. most people would argue that isn't the case because brexit is happening. it is going to happen. i admire your faith in the political system, but it seems to be happening at such a slow pace. it seems to be that theresa may is supportive of a very watered down version. it re

nigel farage hasjust your time. nigel farage has just tweeted he your time.lps. are we going to get a break? that's lying snow in scotland. these were the temperatures yesterday, the atom into the south—west. by tomorrow we will all be in the milder air, some places could see 14 or 15 celsius. we have lost that cold feeling, the winds change direction, pushing that milderair change direction, pushing that milder air across the country and in fa ct we milder air across the country and in fact we have had some good spells of sunshine this afternoon. temperatures only nine or ten but in the sunshine it almost looks springlike! most of the showers in scotla nd springlike! most of the showers in scotland and northern england have just about gone, a couple lingering, a few icy stretches in parts of north—east scotland and north east england. later on the next spell of wet and windy weather comes into the west of the uk. milder night, 3—9dc, but more unsettled tomorrow. outbreaks of rain moving quickly eastwards coupled with a strengthening south—westerly wind. quit

earlier this week we had nigel farage on the programme, the brexiteer in chief, talking about his tripday mr farage said he is close to backing a second eu referendum in order to end the "whinging and whining" of anti—brexit campaigners. it's probably the first time the former uk independence party leader and the pro—eu campaigners have seen eye to eye. "bring it on" said the remainers today. maybe, just maybe, i've reached a point in thinking that we should have a second referendum... on what? on eu membership. the whole thing? of course! let's bring in our chief political correspondent vicki young who's in westminster. he's been doing his radio programme on lbc radio this evening, he said he was meeting michel barnier on monday, and he is now convinced that michel barnier will not "give us a good deal". i'm saying this to leavers, do not be complacent. he is elaborating on comments he made earlier. there has been a backlash for nigel farage, the man getting that referendum and who has long advocated the uk's departure from the eu, suggesting that he welcomed a second referendum. a lo

the political surprise of the day came courtesy of nigel farage. listen to what he wants.aybe, just maybe, i am listen to what he wants. maybe, just maybe, iam reaching listen to what he wants. maybe, just maybe, i am reaching the point of thinking that we should have a second referendum. at 22 years old, i bought my first house for {6.5 million —— i bought my first house for {6.5 million -- $6.5 million. that is logan paul, he has made huge amounts of money on you tube but they have now cut ties with him, all to do with a video he posted with a dead person on it. and we talk about the japanese gang person on it. and we talk about the japanese gang boss person on it. and we talk about the japanese gang boss who was tracked down after he took photos of his body covered in tatties. —— tattoos. we starred in pakistan, where riots continue after this girl was raped and murdered. this video shows a large outline of a man and this young girl. she had been on her way toa young girl. she had been on her way to a koran class. she was abducted and she is holding their hand in this s

because nigel farage was the one who really was in favor of a brags of with his you could party the party that initiated the whole process you could say but apparently their allies now in a way we talked to nigel when he was walking down the corridors here today and he said he wanted in fact a second referendum just to make it clear to everyone that the brits really wanted that brags it and he thought that would be even more in favor of a brags that although polls seem to indicate something else overall bennett seems like younger and two square sensing sort of an opening because of the discussion that nigel for raj started in the last days but whether this will really lead to anything is up at the stars and it does get stranger and stranger we've also got these latest calculations from boris johnson what's the response to. this and i haven't heard anyone talk about that here because boris johnson quite frankly isn't taken too seriously when it comes to numbers at least here by most of the people that are here in strasburg but i know in depth research and calculation made by the fina

nigel farage says he's warming up. we talk to his successor.the first uk tv interview with the trump author michael wolff. good evening and welcome to bbc news. dozens of senior doctors who run accident and emergency departments in england and wales have written a stark letter to the prime minister warning that patients are dying prematurely in hospital corridors and conditions are at times intolerable. they say thousands of patients are left in the back of ambulances waiting to get into a&e. and very high rates of flu recently mean that some hospitals are running out of beds. today there's fresh evidence of the pressure a&e units are under. more than 300,000 patients waited longer than they should in december. staff managed to see 85% of patients within four hours — that's well below the 95% target — and some of the worst figures since records began. this report from our health editor hugh pym. a long wait in an overcrowded a&e unit, that's what 87—year—old yvonne had to endure. it was ten hours before she saw a doctor, and hours more before s

we are going to start this evening with the observer and nigel farage who has had a couple of thingsad a couple of things this week, started off saying he thinks there should be a second referendum and it rather bizarrely put him in agreement with vince cable. he said he thought the league side would winds very well and now he seems to be saying the opposite. but two days later, he thinks the remainers will winds the day because he feels the leave campaign is futile and hopeless, they have given up the fight, and that remain points is the input watch more strongly. i'm not quite sure where he is getting any of the evidence for these views from but i just of the evidence for these views from but ijust wonder of the evidence for these views from but i just wonder whether of the evidence for these views from but ijust wonder whether he just loves the limelight so much that he cannot bear not to be in it, or that he is hoping that the vacancy at the top of the duke chip will —— of ukip will become clear and he canjump in and save the party. is barely making sense. i think what anis sayin

nigel farage made it clear the referendum for him would be to silence the remainers who moaning. the result of any second referendum would be but both sides are convinced they would win. nigel farage as a radio show and he was on that radio show tonight and he clarified what he said, saying he wasn't saying there should be a second referendum but he thought there would be one and therefore leaders had to be prepared for it. his comments attracted criticism from those organising leaving, saying this undermines it and number ten said this matter has been decided and there will be no second vote. all right, alex, thank you very much indeed. alex forsyth there. the latest headlines on bbc news at 80 team pm. —— at 8:18pm. patients are dying in corridors. that is what 60 doctors have said in an open letter to the prime minister. the former owner of bhs is found guilty of failing to provide information to the pensions regulator. plastic free aisles in supermarkets and the five be back tax extended to small shops. theresa may has been explaining her 25 year environmental plan. time for

that one, then nigel farage quit, diane james was queen of ukip to 18 days, then came paul nuttall, whonext, henry bolton. the former army trooper made a splash when he said he could kill a badger with his own hands. when it came out that he had left his russian wife from model half his age, that was bad. when she was found to have tweeted racist claptrap about prince harry's bride to be, meghan markle, that was bad bad. despite a wave of resignations, today mr bolton put his foot down. i shall respect the next steps in the constitutional process, and will therefore not be resigning as party leader. i shall repeat, i will not be resigning as party leader. it is now time to put an end to the infighting that has been going on within the party for some time. and to remove those who have been part of that. in a single phrase, it is time to drain the swamp. this swamp dweller disagrees. i think it is a foolish decision. i have no reason to believe that the party will support him. i think he will go down to an overwhelming defeat, which will add further humiliation to his recent experiences.

the great echo continues when nigel farage says some in borisjohnson says it is well. a knife edge and boris has backed him up, saying yes there may be trouble. the remainers might wear down theresa may. is not an awful lot on this rather than borisjohnson may. is not an awful lot on this rather than boris johnson picking may. is not an awful lot on this rather than borisjohnson picking up a stink. no explanation on how brexit would be frustrated or diverted. two things, one thing suggesting, what he is saying here or apparently sane through friends, what he doesn't want, i can understand this entirely, is that the country ends up having a deal where basically he is arguing that theresa may gets crowned down and agrees. —— saying. not committing to the rules, still subject to the jurisdiction of the european court. everything remains the same except for the anomaly outside the european union and that would leave us in a worse situation and he doesn't want that and would rather almost 18 if that and would rather almost 18 if that were the case. so i think, there are two

we had some labour mps, liberal democrats agreeing with nigel farage. g, tweeted i agree with nigel. his motivations for another vote are different from those who want to keep open the option of staying in the eu. he believes that there was another boat, people would back brexit and it would end the moaning of the whingeing of some of the remain campaigners. the nick clegg and tony blair types, they will never give up. they will go on whingeing and whining and moaning. maybe, just maybe, we should have a second referendum on eu membership. the whole thing? of course. i think if we had a second referendum, we could make it for a generation. he said he was clarifying his remarks and the second referendum was the last thing he wanted but parliament might demand one so brexit supporters should be prepared for one last battle. whatever the result, because opinion polls are not clear on what it would be, other brexit supporters have not agree with him. the current ukip leader said it would undermine the fabric of our democratic intervals. number ten has reject

now the unexpected corner of nigel farage. robert peston on itv was asked explicitly whether it was current labour policy to back that referendum. we are not supporting or calling for a second referendum. in any circumstances? what we have called for is a meaningful vote in parliament, and thatis meaningful vote in parliament, and that is the one area that i think parliament has asserted itself, in the board just before christmas.|j just want to point out to you that you are talking very much in the present tense at the moment. you are saying we are not supporting a second referendum. you're not saying we would never support a second referendum. we're not calling for either. so, jeremy corbyn refusing to rule out the future, perhaps, labour coming around to that idea of supporting a second referendum. but corbyn also talking about labour's position on the single market, which has caused divisions within his own party and lead to nicola sturgeon calling for labour to come out and back staying in the single market. she believes

now, from the unexpected corner of nigel farage. on itv, was asked explicitly whether it was currently the policy to back that referendum. we are not supporting or calling for a second referendum. in any circumstances? what we have called for is a meaningful vote on parliament —— in parliament, and thatis parliament —— in parliament, and that is the one area that i think parliament has asserted itself, just in the boat before christmas.|j parliament has asserted itself, just in the boat before christmas. ijust wa nt to in the boat before christmas. ijust want to point out you that when you are talking very much in the present tense at the moment, you are saying that we are not supporting a second referendum. you are not saying we would support a second referendum. we are not calling for one either. so, jeremy gordon refusing to rule out, perhaps, in the future, labour coming round to that idea of supporting a second referendum but also talking this morning about labour's position on the single market. that has caused some divisions

robert kilroy—silk resigned, and the following year, nigel farage took charge for the first time, sayinggeneral election of 2010. he didn't win, but ukip did secure 3% of the vote, and he was soon back in charge. in the 2014 european elections ukip won the largest number of votes of any uk party — more than 27% — gaining 24 meps. despite losing again in his bid to become an mp in the general election of 2015, nigel farage led ukip to its biggest election victory, gaining 12% of the vote and pushing the lib dems in to fourth place. on the 26thjune 2016 ukip achieved its ultimate goal — the country voted to leave the eu, but ten days later nigel farage resigned as leader saying he wanted his life back. since the referendum the party has gone through a period of turbulence, in september 2017 henry bolton was elected leader — the fifth in under a year. since the referendum the party has gone through a period of turbulence, in september 2017 henry bolton was elected leader — the fifth in under a year. i have been discussing ukip's political turmoil with sebastian payne, a political leader rig

bill cash, are you upset by what nigel farage said?iven by a significant majority and the turnout was 72%, the biggest vote in british history. tom brake, we re vote in british history. tom brake, were you robbing your fans when you heard this? i go normally rub my hands when nigel farage has anything to say that in this respect, him supporting the idea of a vote, and we want a vote on the deal because what happened in 2016 is that people voted for many reasons about leaving the eu, but they now know that for instance leaving the eu will cost the uk £35 billion, they may well... there will be a vote but in the commons. there is a question about what exactly that will constitute because the prime minister talks about a meaningful vote but she some members of parliament could vote for whatever deal the government have struck for four new deal and i don't think that is meaningful, so we need about four mps that includes them being able to tell the government we don't like what you have negotiated, go don't like what you have negotiated, g

but that doesn't, apparently, include nigel farage. he's having a busy day, henry.t planning another comeback. since the brexit vote, ukip has struggled to find a purpose. the popularity it enjoyed under nigel farage has plummeted, and this latest fiasco won't have helped. but activists deny that their party is finished as a physical force. bitter infighting continues to plague the party. its ruling body will hold an emergency meeting at the weekend, and could decide mr bolton's time is up, plunging ukip into yet another leadership crisis. vicki young, bbc news, westminster. # a parliamentary committee has expressed grave concern about plans to begin repatriating hundreds of thousands of rohingya muslims from bangladesh back to myanmar — from where they fled violence last year. the international development committee has warned that rape and sexual violence are still weapons of war used by the military in myanmar. around 570,000 rohingyas are now living in the world's largest refugee camp, kutupalong, near the port city of cox's bazar in bangladesh. my colleague mis

the prime minister's spokesman says britain will not hold a second eu referendum, after nigel farageer told channel 5's the wright stuff programme that he is close to backing a second brexit vote, to end what he called the "whinging and whining" of anti—brexit campaigners. let's return now to the prime minister's pledge to eliminate all avoidable plastic waste within 25 years as part of a new government drive on the environment. the 5p charge for plastic bags at supermarkets will be extended to all shops in england, and stores will be encouraged to introduce "plastic free aisles." some campaigners have said that the measures don't go far enough. we can now talk to the shadow environment minister holly lynch. she's in westminster for us now. eliminate all plastic waste within 25 years. could you do that faster? i think we could. we all watched david attenborough‘s blue planet 2 andy saull the degradation it is having on our marine environment. there are calls to go further on this we were disappointed to see this we were disappointed to see this government will take 25 years to ta ke

today, it was the turn of the chief brexiteer nigel farage. sit he had asked his radio listeners on lbc in london for suggested questions. and these were the three he took to his meeting. how does mr barnier view mass immigration into the eu coming across the mediterranean and elsewhere? what happens to the eu's economy if there's no trade deal with britain? does michel barnier understand why britain voted for brexit? so when we talked to him earlier, i asked mr farage whether mr barnier does undertand why britain voted for brexit? does understand why britain voted for brexit? what answers did you get from michel barnier to the three questions posed by your listeners, particularly that one as to whether he understands why britain voted for brexit? well, he said the british people were told a pack of lies, they were told there was £350 million a week for the national health service. i said, well, 0k, do you not understand that, actually, open—door immigration was the key driver that pushed turnout up on the day of the referendum? pushed turnout

i would welcome anything nigel farage wanted to do in ukip. to to do in ukip. i think nigel doesn't want to be leader of ukip again, but he has made it clear he remained supportive of ukip. he has made it clear he will not go away and start another political party, we are grateful for that. it is a time to come together, including nigel, to represent the 17.4 million voters who are more important than anything else we are talking about today. thank you very much. the headlines on bbc newsroom live: britain's military risks falling behind that of its enemies without extra money. three of ukip's spokespeople, including its deputy leader resign in protest over henry bolton's decision not to step down as party leader. the negative impact of brexit is likely to be dwarfed by global growth, says a former treasury minister and remain. in sport, former england and blackpool defenderjimmy armfield has died following a long battle with cancer. a member of the 1966 world cup winning squad, he played more than 600 games for blackpool and captained england

the observer reports claims by nigel farage that pro—europeans could overturn the result of the brexit the leave side has ‘stopped fighting.‘ and the sunday express claims economists are warning the eu that failing to reach a brexit deal with britain could cost it £500 billion. now on bbc news, it‘s our world. the war in eastern ukraine, more than 10,000 people have died. now entering its fourth year, this has become one of the longest conflicts in modern european history. there is no end in sight to the hostilities, after separatist rebels, backed by russia, took over ukraine‘s donbass region. hundreds of thousands of families were split up, stranded on opposite sides of the new border. with destruction all around, one familiar smell of peace time. but life for many here is anything but normal. i‘m lucy ash and i‘m in the town of marinka, where a bakery is providing comfort and hope amidst the trauma of war. marinka lies on the ukrainian side of the frontline. before the conflict, nearly 10,000 people lived here. there is only half that number now. factories and coal mines have come t

it'll be interesting to see if nigel farage says anything because he does resonate with the voters...esonate, rather than resonate. chuckles the financial times, this story about the shutdown in the us, which has been resolved for the time being with that deal. it's only until the 8th of february. given what we know about trump's position on this in general it wouldn't surprise me if we saw this issue blow back up again fairly shortly. as of now there is a deal, an interim deal, for the next three weeks, so they can get on, people can get paid, and go back to work, which is great. it is a lot of theatre. the last paragraph says that despite the political rank it hasn't touched the dollar. the economy will not feel it. it is a lot of theatre. does it show the dysfunctionality of the american political system? the fact that it canjust shut political system? the fact that it can just shut down. dysfunctionality? in the american government? this is about the most mundane thing that has happened. government? this is about the most mundane thing that has happenedm really is. this is an ordi

you mentioned the purpose of ukip, with nigel farage suggesting there might need to be a second referendum leave the eu, once we know a deal, that purpose, isn't it? whenever farage made that claim, ukip distanced themselves from it. of course, farage is still the face of the party. i don't think there is going to be a second referendum and i don't think was going to call it would the tories labour wouldn't call it. and farage then distanced himself from it. he is very good at getting himself off the front page. this just shows really, getting himself off the front page. thisjust shows really, and i'm surprised it's even on the front page now, toonie owes to henry bolton is really? —— who knows who the real is. financial times bolton is really? —— who knows who the real is. financialtimes and times covering the story about carillion, the engineering giant with £900 million worth of debt from various banks. they were in trouble and issued a profits warning last year, but still awarded this government contract. the issue here is it's a massive company that, until recently, most people had ne

this after promiminent brexit supporter, nigel farage, said the second referendum might be a good ideany politicians are called for a second poll saying the consequences of the decision were not clear for voters at the time. farage says a second vote would end the debate. earlier we talked to our london correspondent and asked her why farage is posing a a second referendum. is i it a stunt? >> i thihink it is a bit of a stunt. not many would dare to call for a second r referendum, because th havave lot to lose. they won the first referendum and not many remain to dare to call for a aecond refeferendum, becacause soar pubublic opininis not soso clearar thatt they woud actually win it. there is not a lot of momentum behind the second referendum at all in the u.k.. brent: we will have more on that coming up later in the day. that was our correspondent from london. i'm going to go now again to business. daniel is here, venezuela's economic crisis deepening. people are hungry. daniel: they are hungry and hurting. the economic collapse is grinding down on the poor. the past year has seen inf

nigel farage says the vote for brexit would be even bigger than last time, putting the issue to rest.ew people have been killed in pakistan when police clashed with demonstrators incensed by the murder of a six-year-old girl. police say there have been 12 similar murders in the past two years. sticking with pakistan, we may be only two weeks into 2018, but relations with the u.s. have taken a heavy heat -- hit. president trump took aim at islamabad, for offering not more than lies and deceit in exchange for aid. the trump administration then froze most security assistance. pakistan has responded by suggesting it is suspending military and intelligence cooperation. earlier, i spoke with pakistan's ambassador to the u.s. how did it get this bad? >> we are disappointed, and we are surprised. disappointed because the language used is an affront to all that pakistan has done, all the contributions we've made to counterterrorism, and we've made good successes, working with the u.s. and also on our own, and surprised because we were having conversations with the u.s. leadership. we were sear

nigel farage and everyone , the vote last time.libertarian party.|j i need a libertarian party. i i don't think he should resign. let's see how he handles it, that's going to be the test. briefly. i am amazed that she says that it was taken out of context. i would love someone to actually go to her and say, "ok, give us the context. what was the context around which you said this." and i think the other thing is, nothing is private anymore. if you send a text message, and you know, you are saying things that are not very nice, it is going to end up on the media and i think it is good that he has distanced himself from these comments, but i think he should go further and she should be questioned around context. thank you all. thank you very much for coming on the programme. thank you. coming up: a hard brexit could cut scotland's economy by more than £12 billion per year, that's according to a new report. i have got messages about having a baby when you were a teenager. this texter says, "hello, i baby when you were a teenager. this

diane james took over briefly, the nigel farage became ca reta ker briefly, the nigel farage became caretakeroor election results, henry bolton took over but he was soon morph known for his personal life than his policies. his girlfriend made racist remarks including the meghan markle would taint the royal family. jo marney said her remarks had been taken out of context but some said he had to choose between his girlfriend and hisjob and choose between his girlfriend and his job and it seems he's chosen choose between his girlfriend and hisjob and it seems he's chosen his job. she's absolutely devastated by the impact of the messages that have now come out, without in any way defending them because they are appalling and the words used are offensive and quite rightly she has been suspended from the party. so what kind of relationship do you still have? we have ended the romantic element of the relationship but i'm still fully supportive of her and her family's effort to rebuild her life. so this is not a matter of political convenience then? no, far from it. the priority in this respect is to

and then this unexpected comment from nigel farage saying we should have a second referendum, which isidea the man who really initiated this whole momentum now wants to go back to the people, potentially, for another one. he thinks it has more to do with him than brexit now now that his own friend in the white house, steve bannon, has been brushed aside. he needs a new role in life. i think there are so many currents now that it becomes incredibly difficult to wonder whether this will lead to something stable, or whether we are going to count these days down and be talking something this disorganised. i wanted to pick up on something you were saying about the divide. we had a cabinet reshuffle this week that was quite extraordinary, and you talk to people at westminster all the time. for international viewers who did not follow it, we had a health secretary who was apparently going to be given anotherjob, and to get an extra title added to his currentjob. another minister who was told to go somewhere else dug her heels in. three hours this went on. what does that tell us about the auth

nigel farage was as amazed as david cameron to find he had won. nobody had planned for it.h political parties lost their traditional political support too, or large parts of it. they have an activist organisations that do not represent their votes. votin patterns collapsed. an election produced no result whatsoever. we win the old mining towns like mansfield, but we lose kensington. and we lose canterbury to the labour party. so let me sum it up. anyone who tells you, in my opinion, if anybody tells you that they know what is going to happen to british politics over the next 12 months is deceiving themselves. it is impossible to predict. would you like to see another uk—wide vote, either on leaving the eu or, indeed, on the deal when it is done? i hope i never lived to see another referendum held on any subject that people think should be given any constitutional force. it is an absurd way of running a modern and complicated country. particularly so when you have a big broad brush yes/no question. should we leave, should we stay? within that are hundreds of complex subquest

then this very unexpected comment from nigel farage, saying, maybe we should have a second referenduminary, the idea that the man who really initiated this whole momentum now wants to go back to the people, potentially, for another one. me thinks it has to do more with him than with brexit, now that his own contact in the white house, steve bannon, has been brushed aside and he has to find a new role in life. there are so many currents now, and it does become incredibly difficult to wonder whether this will lead to something stable, or whether we will count these days down and still be talking in this disorganised fashion. i want to pick up on something that you were saying about the conservative party. we had a reshuffle this week that was quite extraordinary, and you talk to people at westminster all the time. for international viewers who didn't follow it, we had a health secretary who apparently was going to be given anotherjob and managed to persuade the prime minister to not only stay in this job but to add another title to it. another cabinet minister who was told she was going
