tory government out of office! interested in filling their ranks with tory politicians. let's not forget, and remind the people of scotland, that the liberal democrats voted for austerity, they defended cuts to income support, they tripled tuition fees, and they promoted the punishing universal credit system. and, friends, it was the liberal democrat minister in the coalition government that pushed through the increase in women's pension wage. they should be ashamed of themselves. applause the liberal democrats have been tory light ever since they set foot in the rose garden with david cameron, and it seems like old habits die hard. —— tory—lite. and labour... laughter sometimes, i feel like laughter sometimes, ifeel like we laughter sometimes, i feel like we need to remind labour that thejob of sometimes, i feel like we need to remind labour that the job of the so—called opposition is to oppose the tory government, not for labour politicians to oppose each other! applause every day that labour mps fight with thems

the two caveats with rebels and tory clear in the 96 district and the tories many of them right here in the mid backcountry of the orange bird district. overall, they comprised the majority throughout south carolina. which was the main dieter of the war. we have lived have one misreading after a lot another from government and understand that they should not be surprised by this 18th century misreading of the british government as general charles, was a british general serving in america and was fatal infatuation. of course, we have to realize to that people like solomon be seen or halfway again have to hurry and following the british documentation in north would what expected happened the majority of the backcountry roads rounded their horses where they scraping guerrilla and stymied of the effort. lord martin what the british forces in the field and the militia. but their mobility was the reason to bring them to a decisive action. it was fundamental and it changed the course of the war. at the pack of beggars which had the crackers of the backcountry. those beggars accepted the bri

the twin hallmarks of this tory government has been tax cuts for the rich. the state pension is the lowest in the developed world. to add insult to injury, westminster has robbed women born of their pension, and that is a shame. (applause) the snp stands with the women. the government must give them back the money that is theirs by right. (applause) but pensions could be even worse in store. a think tank set up by iain duncan smith, the architect, said that the pension age should rise to 75. i say to the tories, if you ever tried to bring this in, the snp will oppose it all of the way. we can take responsibility and save our own priorities, and we can also decide what we do not want to spend money on. nuclear weapons are immoral, but they are also a massive waste of money. (applause) we can and we will, with independence, get rid of the missiles once and for all. (applause) and here is another idea for saving some cash. the house of lords. (noise) the second-biggest legislative chamber in the world after that national people's congress of china. (laughs) >>

the tory welfare policy is widening that gap. had families have already their income cut by the universal cut to the child limit. will have been pushed into poverty. contrast that with the work of our scottish government. we are introducing the new scottish child limit. childas been done by the action group -- called an achievement by the child action group. implemented, more than 400,000 children will benefit, and let me -- [applause] ms. sturgeon: let me be crystal clear about this. the scottish child payments will have no two-child cap and no horrid holds. [applause] ms. sturgeon: for instance, there is the difference between the tories and the snp in a nutshell. they push children into poverty. up.snp lifts them [applause] ms. sturgeon: we know that injustice extends beyond financial inequality. we have a responsibility to help all of those who are vulnerable. we have already taken steps to take -- protect women in ghettos from abuse. scotland has led the way with groundbreaking legislation that criminalizes psychological as

on the tory side. called the get out the vote operation and it is extremely sophisticated and it will be extremely important because digital campaigners are really important and the message and the person delivering the message even more but the voters have devout and if they don't you will not win a majority so it is looking, people knocking the doors and checking whether people have voters, tellers at election polling stations ticking off with the people have come in and treating the people have come in and treating the data back to central office and that fed out the volunteers, this has to be a very efficient professional organisation and i think there is a campaign apparatus to make sure that happens. we might see lindsey hoyle when he comes back, i think his hat in the ring for the topjob. do back, i think his hat in the ring for the top job. do we expect that speakerjohn bercow will go on thursday as he said he would or will he stay on until the sixth of the seventh when parliament is dissolved?

local support, but it's going to be difficult to get a level of support when they are up against the torythey need every seat they can get, so they're looking at those eleve ns get, so they're looking at those elevens saying they must have done their own calculations on this and said if there is 11 way of getting the whip back, can we win the seats, that it has surely gone on in the bedroom corridors. of course in the sense i have had from the conservative whips and those working on the campaign are are not too concerned about the people running as independents because of the challenges i just as independents because of the challenges ijust said, independents traditionally struggle in britainfirst past the post system and there is a danger in some of those sites that are marginal seats, and to back for example if she runs and to back for example if she runs and takes only a couple thousand votes that will split the vote, stop the conservatives from getting in and possibly letting the lib dems or the labour party, so there is a difficult conclusion there but i imagine those who are very an

every chance the tories will win a majority precisely for that one reason. you could end up that one reason. and you could end up with the tories winning less votes than last time and still winning a majority that they didn't get if, for example, in marginals, these are marginals where at the moment it is but in the tories and labour, where last time it was relatively close, if enough people vote for the liberal democrats who voted for labour last time, the tories will win those seats, there will be a hard brexit, and what is interesting, we will see what happens and this is the big question ofan happens and this is the big question of an election campaign, the brexit deal that borisjohnson negotiated has not been properly scrutinised yet, it has all been about does he have the numbers in parliament. it will be scrutinised that he capitulated to the eu's red lines and accepted the deal they offered la st and accepted the deal they offered last year, that he betrayed his dup allies and basically threw them in the irish sea, and in terms of, can you trust this

there's the different between the torys and the s&p in a nutshell. they push children into poverty, the s&p liflts them up. we know that injustice extends beyond financial inequality. we have a responsibility to help all of those who are vulnerable. we have already taken important steps to protect women in ghettos from domestic abuse. scotland has led the way with ground breaking legislation that criminalizes psychological as well as physical abuse but organizations like scottish women's aid have told us to go further. we need to change the reality that for women and their children, often the only way to escape an abuser is to flee their home. for too many, that results in the victim of abuse becoming homeless, so i can announce today that within this parliamentary term, we will introduce a new law to establish emergency protective orders, can should not be the victims of abuse who lose their homes, it should be the perpetrators and these orders will make that happen. up and down our country every day our fellow citizens are held, and people's homes

it's ha rd to same being set for the tories.ent isn't going to retain any sort of stability. and will probably end up with another election within a year oi’ with another election within a year or two, with another election within a year ortwo, and if with another election within a year or two, and if not, then definitely another referendum. 0k, or two, and if not, then definitely another referendum. ok, let's move onto the financial times then, giles. borisjohnson, onto the financial times then, giles. boris johnson, little onto the financial times then, giles. borisjohnson, little caption down there on the bottom left, johnson unity pledged risks opening door to garage. yes, i don't quite understand why they think that. he is... by pledging the tories would stand explicitly on a no—deal manifesto. i think that's where, there's been a lot of talk about nonaggression pact between the tories and ukip seats. johnson has ruled it out, because their belief is that it legitimises the brexit party. it legitimises them in terms of what

what about the eye, they havejohnson facing a tory backlash over the push foran facing a tory backlashn election. senior conservative mps fear they will be punished by voters and now, what is your view on that? i think there is a huge risk for any party that? i think there is a huge risk forany party in that? i think there is a huge risk for any party in this election. either of the many parties in the selection. not a huge risk for the smaller parties actually. they could do quite well and we could end up with another hung parliament. from borisjohnson with another hung parliament. from boris johnson pots with another hung parliament. from borisjohnson pots my point of view, what i think the tories who are very uncertain about the narrative of election they are saying is that he said do ordie, election they are saying is that he said do or die, he said they are the 1st of october, we spent a fortune on preparing for the 31st of 0ctober, both public sector money and of course, private business money. and it is not happening. so if we go that quickly after it has not happened, and we ar

many of them, moderate tories.e 67 female tory mps elected in 2017, one in six are standing down. i worked with a group women2women established in 2006 aiming to get more women elected conservative mps. we even talked back then about the challenges of having children. women we re challenges of having children. women were asked. men were never asked this question about doing the job and how are you going to look up your kids? that was the number one concern when we were talking to women and now these women are having to go home and they have children that are anxious because of the abuse that they are seeing their mum is getting and it is very real. i've seen some is getting and it is very real. i've seen some of these mps in tears over some of the stuff they've had to face and they didn't go into politics. particularly people like nicky morgan, they didn't go in over issues like europe, they went in over the local hospitals and schools in social care challenges, all the things not talked about and what they've ende

the tories will focus on winning voters in leave voting areas. 70% leave. but the tories could lose these to other parties. places like stirling and gordon could go snp. places like cheltenham and winchester could go to the liberal democrats. they could lose votes although maybe not seats to nigel farage's brexit party which could hand seats to other parties. that us bring in robertson. we have a lot of questions. chris taylor would like to ask you...|j a lot of questions. chris taylor would like to ask you... i think the couple of reasons. political parties are like families and for an election you want to like a happy family. rather pragmatically, you would rather have mps re—elected as conservatives rather than have them run as independents and upset a conservative candidate. here is the next one. it is so noisy here, you may have to repeat that one. next one. it is so noisy here, you may have to repeat that onem there is a hung parliament will be there is a hung parliament will be the crucial negotiations through christmas? i had better e-mai

tory donors and shareholders.t real action on the climate crisis? by creating hundreds of thousands of new, green energy jobs in communities everywhere, where they are most desperately needed. i don't think any of those things are asking too much because we have to radically change course now to avoid living on a hostile and dying planet. this election is our last chance to tackle the climate emergency with a green industrial revolution, which is absolutely at the centre and the heart of labour's plan to transform britain. friends, today is the 31st of october. it's all right, i'm just passing on information to you at this stage. the day that boris johnson promised we would leave the eu. he also said he would rather be deadin eu. he also said he would rather be dead ina eu. he also said he would rather be dead in a ditch then delay beyond today. but he has failed and that failure is his alone. applause. you can't trust the word. after three long years of brexit division and failure from the tories, we have to get

the tories are targeting leaves voters in labourareas, tories are targeting leaves voters in labour areas i want it to go back to britain being britain, that is it, if there is nobody to tell me they will do that, i'm not interested. in west bromwich west, 0ldbury, is one such place. here, more than two thirds of people voted to leave the eu, and there is frustration it has not happened. ijust wanted to be over with, i want us to be out. that is what borisjohnson wants to tap into, butjeremy corbyn will be fighting hard to hold these seats. mike, who has run his own businesses for years, is seeking a clear message. labour have done themselves no favours, keep changing their position so many times, whereas, the conservatives, they have said they wa nt to conservatives, they have said they want to get brexit done. do you trust boris johnson want to get brexit done. do you trust borisjohnson to deliver brexit? 100%, definitely. in some of the uk's industrial heartlands, turning traditional labour voters tory is no easy task. this manufacturer imports and improves steel security doors. the bo

win the election. to deliver brexit if the tories also to deliver brexit if the tories on the programme... more than 70 people have died after a fire swept through a train in pakistan. it's thought a gas cylinder exploded while passengers were cooking breakfast on board. the body of the british backpacker amelia bambridge has been found in the sea near a cambodian island, a week after she went missing. england's coach names an unchanged team for the world cup final on saturday, and says they're relaxed and ready to take on south africa. and coming up on bbc news... following just one win this season, craig levein has been sacked as manager of hearts and will also leave his role as director of football. good evening and welcome to the bbc news at six. today was supposed to be the day we left the european union. instead, the general election campaign got under way in earnest, asjeremy corbyn launched the labour pa rty‘s election campagin. he vowed to transform britain and take on what he called the establishment elite. he also said he would get brexit sorted in six months. meanwhile, the

the tories will focus on winning voters in leave—voting areas.ur—held targets, 39 voted leave. places like stoke—on—trent north — 72% leave, blackpool south — 68%, dagenham — 70% leave. but the tories could lose seats to other parties, places like stirling and gordon in scotland could go snp. cheltenham, southport and winchester to the liberal democrats. they could lose votes, although maybe not seats, to nigel farage's brexit party, which could hand seats to other parties. the lib dems will fight as the uk's main anti—brexit party, and that could help them in heavily remain supporting areas like london. but labour's hoping, as in 2017, they can turn round the polls in the run—up to voting, and jeremy corbyn will hope his promises to pump investment into public services excite voters more than boris johnson's rival pledges, to invest in the nhs and schools, and clamp on crime. it'll be cold, it'll be dark. will that put off older voters broadly keen on brexit? will younger voters turn out? they are mostly remainers. another hung parliament, anoth

that is the tory record..rebuild communities across britain with investment on a scale our country has never known, bringing newjobs and fresh growth to every town, city and region and the nations which make up the uk. we will upgrade our creaking infrastructure with a £250 billion public investment into energy, housing and transport through a national transformation fund, and establish a national investment bank to make a further £250 billion available, through loans to businesses and cops to get our economy moving. —— businesses and cooperatives. grotesque inequality is the result of a deliberate effort to tip the balance of power away from workers towards the privileged elite that borisjohnson's conservatives represent. for too many people, work now means longer hours, more stress and greater insecurity. pay is still lower than it was a decade ago. the chancellor, sajid javid, has said the minimum wage will not rise above £10 an hour until 2024, and only for those aged 21 and over. so a labour government wi

the courage and self belief that they can beat the tories. progress our nation's independence and the demand that the is the right of scotland to choose the future it wants based on the decisions of the scottish people. hello, you're watching afternoon live — i'm simon mccoy at westminster. borisjohnson is trying once again foran borisjohnson is trying once again for an election on the 12th of december. he has tabled a short bill in the house of commons and the debate has begun. he will need a majority of just one debate has begun. he will need a majority ofjust one for the bill to be approved. labour has signalled support for an election. so let's rejoin the debate. stella creasy is on her feet. it showed what the government was trying to do was read today's debate. they have done that by removing part of the standard orders of this has which allows the chair proceedings the right to select any amendment, new clause or new schedule for vote. to do that late at night without

most of the pm's 287 tories will back it, some reluctantly. a number of rebels have been won over.ur will vote strongly against the brexit plan. the government denies it butjeremy corbyn fears a tory brexit means weaker workers' rights, poorer environmental safeguards, and nhs services, say, up for sale in a future trade deal. but some fear losing support unless brexit is delivered and a number will split or abstain and every vote could count. what about the independents who were thrown out the conservative party? well, they will split too. some will back the pm, including a few who want back into the tory fold, they want to keep their seats. others want to stay close to the eu but they might swallow this deal in the meantime. a few who are worried about britain's future after brexit may refuse. mrjohnson can forget jo swinson‘s lib dems and the snp and some others, they are against brexit. there are more struggles in the pipeline, a push for another referendum, for example, and some mps will vote to guarantee a brexit extension, they will try to make sure the deal comes before the

rebels have got former tory rebels have got to think about because the ultimatum that's been made we have this deal all there's no extension and you'll just be leaving the that's a big favor frankly that younger has done to you and macro has done for our prime minister and it clarifies the mind forces people who were rebelling against the government saying this isn't a deal that i want to vote for would they prefer to have no deal bear in mind of course the big position of been taken not just by the tory rebels but by people of the liberal democrats is how much they hate the idea of no deal well come on we voted to leave the we've now got a deal you could see the markets responding as you guys been reporting all day let's follow through and leave the e.u. with a deal just really briefly what what's the what's your most likely scenario if it doesn't go through if it doesn't go 3 boris will i think have to write a letter to the asking for an extension i really think they may say no ok thank you very much leave it there thank you so much for coming to talk to us thanks. well. her and do

potential tory rebels, 2i, number, 320 mps.k the deal. rebel labour mps, 7—10. crucially, the dup, i noticed sammy wilson, they have sent out a tweet reiterating the dup cannot support the deal and urging conservative mps, conservative and unionist mps, as he puts it, not to pack it. they are actively calling on conservative mps, friends in the erg, not to back it as well. i was talking to john baron of the erg earlier indicating he will vote for it and thinking others will go the same way. 0bviously, others will go the same way. obviously, the importance is how the votes stack up tomorrow, what about the question of a second referendum? we know about an amendment for tomorrow from the snp calling for an extension, another really interesting amendment is from oliver letwin. he is this mastermind, as some people see it, trying to stop a no—deal brexit. he has put down this amendment which is designed to still make boris johnson ask for an extension, even if mps approve the deal tomorrow. the concern, from some in that camp, is t

christmas election after tory mps said he had run out of excuses for opposing one. meanwhile, the mirror says voters will finally get the chance to axe reckless borisjohnson after mps backed a december 12 election. we have seen this headline already. the paper says "labour will bid tooust the pm to break the brexit deadlock and overturn crippling tory austerity." the financial times reports at facebook—owned whatsapp has filed a lawsuit against israel's nso group, alleging the firm was behind cyber—attacks that infected devices with malicious software. at least 100 journalists, human rights activists and political dissidents had their smartphones attacked by spyware. according to the mail, 72 female mps have signed an open letter backing meghan markle's stand against distasteful and misleading media coverage and blasting the outdated, colonial undertones of some stories. meanwhile, the times says there could be hope for those of us who hate the pre—flight scrum while boarding an aircraft. gatwick airport is now experimenting with boarding people in window seats firs

... pro— jeremy corbyn or pro—brexit or pro- tory...back to the 2017 election, and labour stole a fantastic run against the rest of the parties by momentum and its online and social media campaign, which was, in my opinion, this role but massively effective! —— visceral. what will happen this time? they will all be involved and what worries me is the whole dialogue and conversation will be more toxic than 2017. nobody comes out with any credit from that. the times talks about iain duncan smith, former leader of the conservative party, saying we are the brexit party, saying we are the brexit party now because there's no other space for us to occupy. he did say that i wish he hadn't. is that how you think the prime minister, boris johnson, will pitch the party?” hope not, because we have spent 3.5 yea rs hope not, because we have spent 3.5 years talking highly volatile rubbish about brexit. doesn't matter whether you are remain or leave, i feel so passionately about this, if anyone is going to win this election without outright majority,

that means he must persuade members from across the house, including labour rebels, ex—tories, as wellbrexiteers in his own party, to support him. the deal would see the uk pay around £33 billion in a so—called divorce bill when leaving. eu and uk citizens will retain their residency and social security rights, and a transition period, during which time the uk would abide by the eu's laws, would last at least until the end of 2020. the agreement would see the whole of the uk leaving the eu customs union, but there would be customs checks on some goods entering into northern ireland from great britain. 0ur political editor, laura kuenssberg, is in westminsterfor us. clinching a deal worth 27 other countries around the continent was only ever going to be the first part of boris johnson's only ever going to be the first part of borisjohnson‘s task. he managed to do that yesterday, to the surprise of a lot of people here, but now he faces the next and enormous hurdle. there is opposition around him on all sides, there are flaws with the deal that some mps believe have to be resolved before

the tories will focus on winning voters in leave voting areas.top 50 labour—held targets, 39 voted leave. places like stoke—on—trent north, 72% leave, blackpool south, 68%, dagenham and rainham, 70% leave. but the tories could lose these seats to other parties, they could lose votes although maybe not seats to nigel farage's brexit party which could hand seats to other parties. places like stirling and gordon could go to the snp. cheltenham, southport and winchester to the liberal democrats, the lib dems will fight as the main anti—brexit party which could help them in heavily remain supporting areas like london. but labour's hoping, as in 2017, they can turn around the polls in they can turn around the polls in the run—up to voting and jeremy corbyn will hope his promises to pump investment into public services excite voters more than boris johnson's rival pledges to invest in the nhs and schools and clamp—down on crime. another hung parliament, another stalemate can't be ruled out. and as for the main candidate for pm? jeremy corbyn is a season

on tories on 40%, 16 points clear of labouron 24, tories on 40%, 16 points clear of labour on 24, brexitrch a couple of days ago was rather horrifyingly showing that people thought that it was ok for mps to suffer the slings and arrows of offensive behaviour and abuse and things as long as they, not the mps, the people, got their way. i think it is this polarisation that the remainers and the lever —— leavers want to have their way. and here we have a war between carrie murphy, she will be in charge of all of the election planning and john mcdonnell, the shadow chancellor. gary wants to getjeremy corbyn out, and garner as many votes as he can, john mcdonnell feels better to target certain seeds. and then there is the other difference thatjohn mcdonnell is very towards the idea ofa mcdonnell is very towards the idea of a referendum before you actually have an election. and of course the question will be on monday whether oi’ question will be on monday whether or not labour will vote for one, all of the indications are they probably won't and will abstain. butjo has mentioned a pole there,

i want to see the back of the tories, i do not trust borisjohnson see the back of the tories, i do noton remaining see the back of the tories, i do not trust borisjohnson remaining in power as prime minister. trust borisjohnson remaining in poweras prime minister. it trust borisjohnson remaining in power as prime minister. it gets too many opportunities to crash us out with no deal without a say. thank you very much indeed. that is the view from the snp who want to see the bill. we should get to see it later tonight and all eyes will also be on labourand later tonight and all eyes will also be on labour and jeremy corbyn, qt he backed the bill? he has said that he backed the bill? he has said that he wants to be very clear that no deal is off the table and we would have to see what he means by that. he is clearly not happy with that extension which has been agreed today, of course, we will not be leaving the eu on thursday as planned and as promised by boris johnson. that has been moved to the 3ist johnson. that has been moved to the 31st of january. the question is whether that is eno

because we cannot leave these tories in power any longer.much damage across the country in times of austerity and public services. we have a manifesto of hope to deliver a better society for everyone in the country. we are up for the fight and we believe we will win it. we believe we can make boris johnson the shortest serving prime minister since viscount godric. he was prime minister for over 100 days. we want to see boris johnson writing his christmas card from a country retreat that is not known as chequers. are there further caveats? we will be pushing to get votes for 16—year—olds and to allow eu nationals who could lead in other elections to be able to vote in this general election. —— could vote. when push comes to shove, we are going to support a general election because people in our country deserves better than boris johnson and the tories so that they believe they are born to rule and they were i'iow they are born to rule and they were now found out they are not. on the 12th of the ninth, whatever boris johnson puts forward? we w

i think the tory offer would be here is the deal, give me a majority so i can do it as side can.ropean parliament has to —— approve the deal once it has been ratified in the uk. yes, of course. mps m ps vote mps vote overwhelmingly us politicians accused boeing are putting profit before safety as the company boss putting profit before safety as the com pa ny boss testifies putting profit before safety as the company boss testifies over the 737 max plane crashes. on behalf of myself and the boeing company, we are deeply and truly sorry. also a newsday.

but so do the tories. this is the ifa ‘s. so do the tories. this is the ifa 's. rhetoric, i really do, because it will damage jobs and when he's going on about tax dodgers, the top 1% of taxpayers actually pay over 25% of the income tax in this country. but isn't he talking about the big corporations who pay almost nothing in tax compared with their profits. the problem with that, there is a lack of international cooperation about that. it doesn't make it right. the avoidance of tax. there isa right. the avoidance of tax. there is a lack of international corporation and its difficult to fix but going into business like this is extraordinarily damaging. it might win him some votes. the shadow chancellor has made overtures, it's very different sounding. it's not the prawn cocktail offensive or whatever that was. and all right, some of the businesses are worried andi some of the businesses are worried and i take your point about the rhetoric but a lot of them do seem to find points of agreement with him so there is a disconnect between the stump speeches and the ove

he said, before we move on to tory conference, can you do some admin?w playlist on bbc sounds. that's good. not that we weren't out of our depth last time. will you do some crooning? we don't do the singing, we introduce the songs, but our brexitcasters give us a list of songs. go on to the e—mail. two, today is national poetry day. congratulations, everyone. we do have some brexit poems coming, so stay tuned for that. we have a special guest who is going to be the reader of our poetry as well. guy verhofstadt. in his cardigan? you saw the reception that katya got. three, people stop me on the street about this, why are you wearing headphones? please explain. the main reason is so that we can hear each other. i think people are getting at is, surely there are things that are more discreet than these giant things. i like these headphones. they are very comfortable, heading into winter they double as earmuffs. they are the only ones we could afford. it is because it is a podcast. and also because we are subtle. very subtle. we have matching subtle microph

it's expected to be a knife—edge vote — but in the last few hours a number of hardline tory brexiteersagreement. several opposition labour mps are also expected to rebel laura kuenssberg has the latest. that's not the real borisjohnson. it's a fancy dress version, a climate protester who had scaled the scaffolding around big ben. the actual prime minister is teetering on an even narrower edge. he has to take a leap, not knowing if he'll meet victory or defeat. we've got a deal that allows us to get out of the backstop, that's abolished, and we can do free trade agreements as one whole united kingdom around the world. clearly, what matters is mps coming together across the house tomorrow to get this thing done. and ijust kind of invite everybody to imagine what it could be like tomorrow evening, if we have settled this. but in order to get this deal, though, you have given some concessions, you've accepted quite a significant customs border between northern ireland and the rest of the united kingdom. that is something you said you would never do, you said no british prime minister could

that used to be friends of the tories saying it's been sold out can you just briefly tell us derek what exactly is the agreement now on ireland is it workable and is it going to be acceptable in the end if there's a compromise on both sides a northern ireland in future will be sort of in between the e.u. and the u.k. it will be officially part legally part of the u.k. customs union so if you k. does deals with the us it can profit from that but there's a back door and up back door we'll keep the border between northern ireland and the republic which is staying in the open so basically if you were to be positive about it they have the best of all possible worlds even membership on officially pragmatically on a day to day basis travelling over and back across their open border but they also have access. to these wonderful new global britain trade deals the london will be agreeing so they got the best of pos words boats the people in northern onto are loyal to the queen they don't want to be they don't want special treatment they just want to be as good you u.k. citizens anyone else and th

tories risk being torn apart bya independent. tories risk being torn apart by a no deal manifesto.nson has always presented no deal is the option of he was unable to get his deal. he is keeping it on the table. this mythical table. but he will not be able to convince the vast majority of his party to stand behind a manifesto that explicitly advocates i'io manifesto that explicitly advocates no deal to do the problem for him will be that there are a couple of mps to his right to have a continuous incentive to outflank him or at least to attempt to outflank him no matter what he does. to stave off the threat from the becks —— brexit party and partly for ideological reasons. this will be a difficult balancing act for boris johnson although it is likely he will go into another election making promises about another deal if he we re promises about another deal if he were miraculously able to get, and again, the irish question about dealing with the backstop would be at the centre of that. i think we're seeing this on the way that donald trump behaves in the united states, the idea that

in terms of the tory voices, the welsh secretary has told oliver's tory members that they should voteport brexit. more than 52% of people here are toads and voters wanting brexit, they were looked at their mps at their records within the next two hours. alexandra mackenzie is in glasgow for us this morning. alexandra, what's the level of support for the deal in scotland? in scotland, unlike wales, people voted strongly to remain in the european union. the picture in scotla nd european union. the picture in scotland is very different. boris johnson will struggle to get the votes of the scottish mps. 0bviously he is likely to get the votes of the tory scottish mps, that is 13 at the moment. the scottish secretary has been encouraging all scottish mps to vote for the deal later today. but thatis vote for the deal later today. but that is very unlikely to happen. he has also said in his opinion that if the tories scottish mps do not vote for the deal, they should have the whip taken away from them. boris johnson likely to get those 13 votes but we're not sure about the others, thatis but

tory fold?er count your chickens. he is going to hope he can win a general election on a deal framework, and that if he has a majority he will not need support because the deal will be the manifesto. i think it is more clear-cut. guy: your assessment is this deal, it may not pass this weekend, but it will not be dead, and in no deal brexit, now that boris has a deal to work with, a no deal brexit is significantly less likely. geoff: absolutely right. att explains why sterling is 1.28 then back at 1.22. fullyl risk has almost been pushed out. never say never on any scenario, but especially compared to last week, when the prime minister was meeting under a no deal framework. that has been turned on its head. ist is why no risk premium less than the price. guy: thanks for the analysis. always fully appreciated. thanks to geoffrey yu joining us from ubs wealth management. vonnie: back to earnings. railroading routes continue to see trade tensions and the slow down in trade manufacturing threatening

some keen tory unionists may stick with the dup.mps to vote with him for a deal — and a number likely will. they fear losing support if brexit‘s not delivered. tonight, downing street's trying to secure their votes with promises workers' rights and green safeguards will be protected and strengthened by law. jeremy corbyn doesn't believe it and labour will vote strongly against the brexit plan. what about the independents who were thrown out of the conservative party? well, they'll split too. some will back the pm, including a few who want back into the tory fold, to keep their seats. others want to stay close to the eu, but they might swallow this deal in the meantime. a few who're worried about britain's future after brexit may refuse. mrjohnson can forget jo swinson‘s lib dems and the snp and some others. they're against brexit. other big struggles are coming too — a push for another referendum, for example. and tomorrow, some mps will try to block a no—deal brexit, and make sure the deal is approved and becomes law, even if it me

in those circumstances, all of tory conference, where i was this week as a journalist, watching themns next, then it really is a wide—open question about who wins that general election. does borisjohnson win as the champion of brexit, the person who tried to get it done, or does some other sort of remain coalition government emerge? we will come back to all of that in a moment. but, thomas, give us your take on the european view at this point. do they, the people, do you agree? the notion that iain mentioned that the eu might sort of give in at the last moment, usually in the past had to deal with budgetary matters and so forth. margaret thatcher said "i want my money back," in the 1980s, it was all resolved in the very last minute. i think this brexit notion and britain leaving the eu is far too big a subject to be sort of solved at the last moment. i have a little item to show you here... i don't know if the camera can see that clearly. it doees show the impossibility of a solution. i've heard the word 'unworkable' used about boris johnson's latest proposal to the eu, and this is a
