no surprise, the tory party is trying to put on a show. l tory rebels in the prime minister's office pushing her to budge. but a government source said to me, the only concession we have made is to keep talking. none of the actual compromises are in concrete, none are firm. and that leads us to the second thing to remember, these fights this week in westminster may have been postponed, but they haven't disappeared for good. there is still huge tension here on all sides of the tory party and all sides of the tory party and all sides of the tory party and all sides of parliament. that means although the prime minister will end the week without the embarrassment of taking a beating and losing in the house of commons, there are still many battles ahead in arguments the eventual outcome of which will affect us all. thank you. our top story this evening. a handshake in history — donald trump becomes the first serving us president to meet a north korean leader. and still to come — the england team arrive at theirtraining camp in st petersburg ahea

the tory party has ossified between tribes, the brexiteers claiming to be the real patriots, and the hammond kind of tribe saying we are the real patriots. and the deafening silence from labour because lost if that was really a thrust... in last year's general election. it doesn't seem to have capitalised on it in the polls, labour is frustrating everyone. it's having this difficult balancing act, between the remainers in the electorate and pro—leavers, is also frustrating everyone. so yasmin, it is notjust theresa may and her government that are paralysed, this process is paralysing politics across the board. it is those russian dolls, you go from absolutely the party politics and the regional and national divides in our country to the wider, the biggest dog of all which is exactly as you said, the eu project itself. but here it seems to me that in your script you said something about march we will be leaving. i think one should put something of a question mark because this is exactly one year, the tories fighting each other, labour fighting each other, and people, throughout all ki

it has been the death of the tory party and the deathknell for them for years and yea rs deathknell forelections... the electorate is volatile, but he says they don't vote for divided parties, that is for certain. when they again to be banging these heads together at chequers next week, she will have to get them onside supposedly to go down one road or another but then there's the of the party as well. before she even gets to brussels. so what you will get, it is likely, if she gets her way, the hard brexiteers will not like it, and the question is, we are bouncing back the same questions, how do you solve the irish border? probably some kind of customs union, could we do that with a norway type of model? europe will say, you can have that, but you will have to take free movement, and we haven't even got to the bit where brussels says, no, that is not acceptable. you mentionjacob rees—mogg no, that is not acceptable. you mention jacob rees—mogg and no, that is not acceptable. you mentionjacob rees—mogg and the hardline brexiteers, mentionjacob rees—mogg and the ha rdline brexiteers, and

crispin odie, that's probably my ignorance because he is a hedge fund manager and has given the tory party50,000 but white his views on this were the front page on the observer? i've never heard of him, you've never heard of him and you are political reporter, have you? no, he means nothing. why is it so you? no, he means nothing. why is it so significant that he is saying this? i may be entirely wrong. interesting reading for michael gove, though. just because form we move on, i want to draw your attention to the other front—page

until the tory party gets its act together and strengthens the hand of theresa may to go and negotiaterish border, we are going to be in the same position over and again. the irish border was specifically mentioned as a key sticking point. jean—claude juncker did say this week, others in brussels cannot deal with a divided cabinet. that is why there is all this focus on the big cabinet meeting at the country retreat of the prime minister and that fact cannot be escaped, can it? people position for domestic purposes. people in the uk position for domestic politics not thinking squabbling affects the other side in a negotiation we are conducting. not thinking that the europeans read our press. they do so avidly. i can say it isa press. they do so avidly. i can say it is a fact and therefore because i get to win, apparently, if i'd talk for ten minutes. the cabinet is divided. we do know that. is that not a fact? i conceded at the very start. people in the netherlands sega stop beating up on the brits. the car manufacturing industry in germany says we need a deal with the uk. it is absurd

the tory party is being run by people who do not have any merit, 5he party is being run by people who asked whether theresa may and philip hammond were remain voters or appeared to be remain voters or appeared to be remain voters or appeared to be remain voters anyway during the referendum, wa5 remain voters anyway during the referendum, was a problem and she 5ay5 referendum, was a problem and she says she initially thought so that nash ‘5 in cities. their lack of idea5, bradbury, cup, they shouldn't be attacking the labour party. priti patel lost herjob, let's add, for the cabinet as international development secretary because of a numberof development secretary because of a number of meeting she held with israeli officials said it could be a big case of sour grapes here, she's unhappy with conservative party, unhappy with conservative party, unhappy the way it is going. while this india her to her colleagues?” don't think so —— —— will this india her. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget, you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all th

as you had conceded that there were divisions internally in the tory party, i had considered great ifhan wait for me to finish and barrel down, i had conceded that their work even if there were divisions within the eu, the way the organisation works is that individuals cannot negotiate with the uk. it is the basic structure of the eu. even if there were, let me finish, even if their work, and there are divisions internally in the eu, but they are part of the european union. once they leave, they can enact those divisions. bags all i meant. it was reported this morning that david davis met with michel barnier, his counterpart in the european union but he has had lots of meetings with other countries trying to do a deal here and deal there. in the end, the commission is charged by all 27, it used to be 28, to be the negotiator. just as immigration, there are all kinds of domestic political things going on in hungary and italy, in the end they get together at the summit and they come up with a unified proposal and that is how they negotiate. i am amazed you do not want to admit that is h

promises questions but the real problem for britain is not really the internal machinations of the tory party except that those nose in the labor party as well are affecting negotiations with the e.u. and both parties both major parties are kicking the can down the road so far but the road to dead end didn't run out very shortly or we might get exactly what the liberal democrat party one day anyway which is a move a turning of the record really residue we need because the price of the servants don't want break of course at the polls and they say it's a total disaster and every single option on the table even the best option is worse than we have at the moment jacoby was definitely joking when he when he said something like to resume should offer to europe as a bargaining position but he was as you probably did with your ear he was joking but actually we've got to sort out the internal problems of the labor party and tory party both in it for internal reasons are going way down the road the losing patients are running out of time ok if the big trade wars of trade deals the future big issue let

but there, the chancellor runs into the buffers of the tory party ma nifesto the buffers of the tory promised to reduce the burden of taxation on ordinary families and promised most of us a tax cut by raising the threshold for lower and higher rates and also promising to cut tax for business by a reduction in corporation tax and not raise vat. there is limited room to move the big tax earners and at the same time, there are other government ministers banging on the door of number 11, trying to get more cash out of the chancellor for the police and the ministry of defence. anyway you cut it, if you are philip hammond, you're thinking theresa may has given you the equivalent of a hospital pass. norman, thank you. three people have died after being struck by a train near loughborouthunction in south london. police say they are investigating how they came to be on the tracks. 0ur correspondent, sophie long, is in brixton. what more do we know at this stage? just in the last few moments, the superintendent from the british transport police came and issued a statement. he said three men in

stop at that point dave redcurra nt‘s the millennium will stop at that point dave redcurrant‘s tory party very opposed to it. then with the coalition in power and the davis review up and running it was clear momentum was shifting towards the third runway at heathrow option. what changed the dynamics again was the election of jeremy what changed the dynamics again was the election ofjeremy corbyn to the leadership of the labour party. he has never particularly liked this idea and so we have this strange situation today with labour giving their mps situation today with labour giving theirmpsa situation today with labour giving their mps a free vote so they can do what they want, but the leadership narrowly comprising john mcdonald, jeremy corbyn, are opposed to it, saying it doesn't need the labour pa rty‘s for test, saying it doesn't need the labour party's for test, the conditions it set for whether or not there should bea set for whether or not there should be a third runway. i think is labour's policy to expand heathrow but not like this at this time. but we're expecting dozens maybe ev

is love really in the air for the conservative party on brexit? if every torytaly has refused to take 600 illegal migrants floating off their shore in the mediterranean. we ask the boss of the charity running the boat they're now on if europe is facing a summer of showdowns. good evening. like a bride and groom on the night before a wedding, the two statesmen are spending their singapore night in different hotels just a stone's throw from each other. the acrimony of the last 70 years — wars hot and cold — could end when, at 2am uk time, president trump and supreme leader kim meet to make peace. but america, as her secretary of state pompeo cautioned today, has been fooled before. that have come to nothing in its dealings with north korea. the country has been hugged close — jimmy carter and madeleine albright were two who tried — and been banished as a far flung axis of evil, memorably by george bush. trump's diplomacy seems to follow no rational rules but he may have found a like—minded personality in the character of kim jong—un. could that be enough to make

last few days, and during the time to come, it feels sometimes like it is the two sides of the tory partyhat are in these bitter negotiations. theresa may was asked about the government's proposal as she arrived at an event in whitehall. have you gone back on your word, prime minister? are rebels right to feel let down? questions, but no answers, from the prime minister. the government is to ease the restrictions on allowing skilled workers into the uk from outside the european union. foreign doctors and nurses will be excluded from the government's visa cap after concerns it was contributing to staff shortages in the health service. in february, nhs england had thousands of vacancies for both doctors and nurses. rolls—royce is to cut more than four and a half thousand jobs as part of a major restructuring. many of the cuts will be at its headquarters in derby. our business editor, simonjack, reports. at rolls—royce headquarters in derby this lunchtime, workers were tight—lipped about the news of massive job cuts. i don't suppose you could have a quick word for the bbc? no? tell us about

i have never heard of mr crispin odey, but as kate said, he has given the tory party £50,000.? i'm not sure whether his views are shared by other brexiteers, i'm not quite sure. it is an interesting story but i think there are several more questions that need to be asked about it. another brexit story in a moment but before we do that, i want to take a look at the other story on the front page of the observer. doreen lawrence, baroness lawrence, attacking grenfell indifference. kate? i think when doreen lawrence speaks out on something to do with any kind of institutional practice, i think you have to take a great deal of notice. she is think there is institutional indifference face by the residents of grenfell tower and people in social housing. she is saying they have the right to safety and nobody was listening to them. i think that is obscene that we will see throughout inquiry. we have had so see throughout inquiry. we have had so far some very harrowing personal testimonies. hugely emotional? hard to listen to. i think doreen lawrence has captured what people are feeling

these last few days, and during the time to come, it feels sometimes like it's the two sides of the tory partyter negotiations. theresa may was asked about the government's proposal as she arrived at an event in whitehall. reporter: have you gone back on your word, prime minister? are rebels right to feel let down? the government is to ease the restrictions on allowing skilled workers into the uk from outside the european union. foreign doctors and nurses will be excluded from the government's visa cap after concerns it was contributing to staff shortages in the health service. in february, nhs england had thousands of vacancies for both doctors and nurses. the newest member of the royal family has accompanied the most experienced on an official visit to cheshire. the duchess of sussex was with the queen on their first royal engagement together without prince harry. the queen and duchess were greeted by hundreds of cheering schoolchildren as they attended a series of events, including the opening of the mersey gateway bridge and the storyhouse theatre in chester. time now for all the sports ne

last ten minutes, the promise of a compromise on that seemed to keep both sides of the restive tory partyhas realised that it must have an amendment, a further amendment to the bill, which deals with parliament's role in the event of there being no deal. getting some unity, and inevitably having some degree of give—and—take, is part of the process. remainers have been pushing and pushing to give mps more say if it all goes wrong. but the government for hours had been resisting giving parliament more power if the brexit deal is sunk. have you told the prime minister you're resigning, sir? i will be issuing a statement shortly. it started badly, with a government minister quitting so he could make the case for giving parliament more control over brexit, too. i urge my parliamentary colleagues to follow my lead and vote to give our great institution, this house of commons, our constituents, and our country, the powers it needs to leave our children a legacy of which we can all be proud. at that point, ministers thought they were safe, and wouldn't have to budge. they want to reverse the resu

davis was going to resign, and then he didn't, and then the awful compromises designed to hold the tory partyothing to do with the uk national interest or the reality of our negotiating position. not exactly covering themselves in glory. last week, what happened on tuesday and wednesday, the eu withdrawal bill, and enabling bill that brings all of the eu law into uk law, and we can start to unpick that, it comes back from the lords, where the government back was defeated 15 times. it is unprecedented for the lords to show such displeasure with the commons and legislation. the key task for theresa may is to get the 15 amendments overturned. there has been loads of compromising going on, the government back or has compromised with the idea of giving parliament a meaningful vote on the final deal. it was the one issue they were defeated with in the commons back in december. the government has done a huge round of work, the whips and other people have done a huge amount of work to ensure there is not a significant enough tory rebellion and they don't lose votes next week. parliamentary arithmetic

what does i have to say to keep those rebels on side of the tory party?whatever the dates, they will get a meaningful vote on the government's deal, essentially meaning that they get to direct the government's response to mps voting down the agreement, rather than the response to mps voting down the agreement, ratherthan the ukjust crashing out with no deal. dominic greene, one of the lever mainers, has said he is comfortable they will get a meaningful vote, and notjust forced to choose between a bad deal and no deal, they will get the chance to improve the deal and extend negotiations. that's the kind of concession i think the government will have to make. katie, if that's the case and brussels is seeing all that play out, that is their interpretation, does that mean we're heading for a brexit? if that's the case, in theory it moves any incentive to offer a deal that the uk current government is looking for. why do that if they are... they just hang on and >> doug:? just hang on and >> doug: ? that's just hang on and >> doug:? that's why just hang on and

was the wrong question put to people at the wrong time, in order to try to heal the rift in the tory partyhas only exacerbated it. and we've got probably a decade of wrangling over buck stops and front stops and non—whatever's instead of dealing with the real issues! as long as that? we are the power and this is how we are going to do it for the sake of the country, they should say. because brexit is a national crisis, this is something that requires honesty, that's all. there are great politicians in the uk, not all of them don't care about the people, but who is honest enough to say, look, this is not in the interest of the country? i really think it is an important point, shaun, to make, we have never had a cabinet where the vast majority are millionaires. and that makes a difference to how you regard the poor. we have never had a gang of millionaires deciding on policies for the ordinary person. and the most impoverished. it's not the case in the british parliament though. let's broaden out further from what you were saying, maria, at the start of the programme, because the g7 taking p

be worse off, and that means the government have to recognise this is about more than just the tory partye spoke about this bill to your colleague pete wishart, he was angry that amendments regarding devolution were only being spoken about in the house of lords. that's right. as it turns out, when the bill came back to the commons, you had less than 20 minutes to talk about these issues. so, what can you do to make sure that devolution is discussed more in future bills? well, pete was right to be angry, very angry. but i think going forward, what we need to do is to make it clear to the government that they need to listen to the devolved administrations. it's not on to unpick devolution, the power grab is not on, and the government need to start paying attention and making sure they do... but what can you do? that's my point. what can you do? since prime minister's questions, when we tried to force the vote, when the snp left the chamber at that time... and ian blackford got thrown out. yes, and he was right to be deeply frustrated and angry by the situation that we's been left in. as a r

in the former tory party chairman, to this issue to be looked at far more thoroughly within tory rankste complaints as they have arisen. this intervention puts more pressure on to the conservative party to look at this issue more seriously. thank you. theresa may is to hold talks in downing street today with the israeli prime minister, benjamin netanyahu. mr netanyahu has been visiting leaders across europe to discuss how to limit iran's nuclear capabilities. he supported president's trump's decision to pull out of an international accord last month, a move which was condemned by britain, france and germany. an australian woman has died after contracting hepatitis a from a packet of frozen pomegranate. about 2,000 packs of the contaminated fruit were sold and it has been linked to 2a cases of the disease which attacks the liver. australians have been urged to check their freezers and discard packets of the fruit. three leading health think tanks have written to the prime minister calling for funding increases of 4 percent a year above inflation for the nhs. the chief executives of the

not about detailed flight paths or any final decision, but it has led to some restyling of the tory party business however is desperate to push on and most mps supported, but parliament's backing might not last under another government. even though many labour mps are behind heathrow... yes, we need airport capacity, yes we need better connectivity between airports. we have put those tests down but they have not been met so we will vote against that. those who want to build will almost certainly win tonight but possible legal action beckons long before detailed plans emerge. this could be the last and that mps have the sea, but on heathrow and will certainly not be the final word. laura kuenssberg, bbc news, westminster. the government has refused to back a scheme to build the world's first tidal power lagoon in swansea bay. developers claimed the project would generate enough clean energy to power 155,000 homes, but ministers today said that it didn't represent value for money. 0ur wales correspondent sian lloyd is in swansea now. what went wrong with this scheme? well, really, fiona, it

different sides of the tory party clashing with each other in public, and the labour party for good measurebrexit as well. some people would say this is part of the inevitable bumps in the road of a tricky process. but some mps are privately using words like fiasco or even melt down. farce 7 farce? what promises have you made to the tory rebels? a bit of pantomime. i wanted a quiet walk to work. he might not be blamed for wondering if it looks a bit like that. but it's the woman who lives in downing street that the one trying to keep it all together. can you really please both sides, prime minister? she's the one trying to stick to promises that perhaps can't all be kept. but for theresa may, it's certainly a laughing matter. there may now be a meltdown. they are not actually my words. but those of the foreign secretary! even as his fellow cabinet ministers are preparing people for government negotiations. joking apart, listen carefully. this is theresa may committing to think again about giving parliament more power. if they vote down the eventual deal with the european union.|j they vote

there are some in the tory party, those who have supported remain who think in that scenario mps shouldrlier this week, to reason was worried they might vote against so she met with them and promised to try and resolve their concerns. today, the government produced details of what it thinks should happen if there is no final brexit deal and it is safe to say those mps are not happy. they say it does not give parliament enough of us say, some of them even suggesting theresa may has gone back on her promise. some saying privately she has caved in to the brexiteers. the government insist that is not the case. it says it has listened and is trying to find a way through this that will not bind theresa may's hands in those negotiations with brussels. what does this boil down to? in the short term, there is likely to be another showdown in parliament next week, another test of theresa may's authority but with tempers frayed. beyond that, it shows how it is becoming increasingly difficult for theresa may to balance the competing demands on her party and if these brexit negotiations are to progr

and the government is forever having to do the splits to try to keep the various factions of the tory partylooked like they might lose. they've had to give some concessions on the plan for customs arrangements after brexit. but there isa arrangements after brexit. but there is a vote tomorrow which could still be pretty squeaky for the government. the number is still a rather dicey on the so—called meaningful vote. many people in parliament including in the house of lords believe mp‘s should have more power to tell the government what to do if the final brexit deal fails. the government was in a compromising mood earlier and it seems to night that a certain defeat is absolutely not on the cards. but things. —— still feel dicey, feel very few bradl around here. this is a hot and bothered westminster and another week when theresa mayjust cannot be guaranteed that she is certainly going to get her way. laura kuenssberg at westminster. thank you. a brief look at some of the day's other other news stories. theresa may has described talks at the g7 meeting in quebec in canada, which took place la

in the tory party this growing acceptance of the argument, what i find surprising that it is often theare willing to talk about it as well. what is not clear is whether the panel set up not clear is whether the panel set up by not clear is whether the panel set up by sajid javid to review this on a case—by—case basis, reviewing individual applications for licensing different cannabis medicines will extend into a broader review of the whole law. my impression at the moment is that the government haven't closed the door to wed but i am not saying definitely yes. but what is happening is that there's much more pressure on them extend that into a much broader review. thank you norman. let's talk to different people about this. co—leader of the green party and mp caroline lucas is in westminster, while conservative mp laurence robertson, joins me in the studio. and also from our westminster studio, conservative party politician crispin blunt, mp for the reigate constituency in surrey. what group of you with a blunt, do remind me? co-chair of the drug policy reform group. is lord hague right

>> our reporters at westminster quoted a poor a party lawmaker who says -- tory party lawmaker who sayss the important vote. based on what we have seen, the political backbone of the anti-brexit conservative rebels, i would not hold out much hope they will stand in the way of the government. mark: what credibility did the grieve,rs have, dominic who were hell-bent, determined to face off with theresa may? do they lose credibility? the brexiteers don't care. to havedo not seemed gained anything for all of the noise they made, the principle stands they have taken. and seem to get to the line then back off. mark: an intraday chart, you cannot extrapolate much. it is gone up a little. in the markets, we like to talk about, does this mean soft brexit? where does today leave us any type of brexit we could end up with? is it hard to answer that question? >> it is hard to answer the question. observers andd people who think that reason and that reason and carry the rationality will carry the day, would tell you that something will be worked out and there will not be hard brexit. that there will

brussels later this year, if she comes back without a deal, some of the pro e rebels in theresa may's tory partyrliament to vote and send her back to the eu so that she can make a deal. is vonnie:0 of the lawmakers out of 257. is that enough? >> it's really a question of what happens with the negotiations. enoughesa may can offer concessions to them, they make a great to back her. they don't necessarily want to see her toppled from power. there has been horse racing going on for two days now. had a minister resigned on tuesday over it. last week, there was similar negotiations with the brexiteer secretary and they thought he would resign. it feels like every week we have this circus of mp's disagreeing and theresa may is trying to keep everyone healthy. mark: so maybe any deal instead of a bad deal would no longer be the case? >> we have pro brexit lawmakers who want theresa may to have the power to walk away with no deal. that is a card she would have in her hand to say everything you have offered is not good enough and britain doesn't need that. mp'she markets, pro-remain who want a softer bre

the atmosphere in the tory party has been pretty few brow since june 23, 2016 but it is even has been of the tory party, the brexiteers think they have won and theresa may has not conceded anything, so they are all pretty anxious to work out what has happened. in terms of kicking cans down roads, this one can only be kicked as far as the beginning of next week. what you are starting their whispers about today from those tory rebels is if the tory pm is not offering us what we trusted her to offer us, what we will do is take the moment that dominic grieve offered to the house that was rejected by the government, give it to the lords, maybe some nice lords might want to put it down in theirchamber, and nice lords might want to put it down in their chamber, and it will come back to the commons again. it is certainly, i feel like those tory mps who come from as last night definitely won't be in the mood to come from eyes again. so is there a crunch point, is that what we are building two? i think so, it will come next week either in the house of lords or the house of commons. in the house

from westminster it is always about the two sides of the tory party, the tory rebels that they have thee hope on the british side, perhaps an emergency summit in september, the unity will start to fracture and national interests might serve to come to the fore. but what national interest exactly? the eu feels it holds all the cards. there will be some push back against the commission. it is the money below average? security is the big h. theresa may has known the beginning. the eu benefits from uk intelligence. during the of negotiations we heard how much the uk benefits from european intelligence. there is an absolute feeling here that we need each other, whether over the russia poisonings in the uk recently or cross—border terror attacks, poisonings in the uk recently or cross— border terror attacks, eu leaders are not happy at the hard line the commission has taken about sticking to the rules. you will see some pushback they are. these are negotiations and they are uncomfortable. everybody is going to try and seems strong. the end of the day, even though both sides today will threate

during the time to come it feels sometimes like it is the two sides of the tory party who are actuallys of better dreadful negotiations. theresa may was asked about the government's proposal.as she arrived at an event in whitehall, have you gone back on your word, prime minister? are rebels right to feel let down? not saying very much. another leading conservative rebel, anna soubry has expressed her anger at the government's decision. i believe as many of my colleague stated that the prime minister agreed to that, so on tuesday, we didn't push it to a vote, we met the prime minister and the agreement was that that dominic grieve, a former attorney general vote would go and he would negotiate with people from the government and come out with an amendment to the eu withdrawal bill that actually delivered exactly that. in the event of no deal, there would be a poet and meaningful boat and a debate in parliament. that was what was agreed. unfortunately, i am having reached an agreement, dominic grieve and the solicitor general and others reached an agreement data steadily on change. which

but the tory party does not agree with itself, the cabinet is split and it doesn't look like brusselssy ride either. stay with us, but let's talk more about exactly that, going to adam fleming in brussels. trying to unpack everything that michel barnier was talking about at such length over this lunchtime. a of talk about this deal, what does he make of it? what do we think this is thinking here? it was a very complicated press conference, lots of details and it required a little bit of clarification afterwards. but this is where we got to today, but the uk published this proposal about cooperation and effectively the uk would remain part of the eu for a temporary period after the end of the brexit transition period in december 2000 20. michel barnier has not ruled that out, yes i rejected that proposal, but he does say that he has lots of big questions about it. for example, would the uk be willing to see a role for the court ofjustice but willing to see a role for the court of justice but he willing to see a role for the court ofjustice but he overseeing the eu customs rules during

moved justthey have far enough to convince a few tory party rebels to back theresa may.ay they miscalculate, what happens? would there be a vote of confidence in theresa may or a new conservative prime minister? suppose someone lights a fire under the conservative party, you never know which way it is going to go or who is going to get burnt. the hard court euros 's -- the hard court euros -- francine: are they softening their stance? tim: what we have seen this week are people -- european negotiators scratching their heads as a look at the u.k. political scene. they are now starting to talk privately about whether or not they might need to extend the negotiations for another couple of months of the talks do not proceed. in chaosis still mired and confusion. francine: we will see the market reaction on the back of that. betting, the author of the house, the inside story of the election. you will write another book, right? we will be back with yianos and henrietta. we will talk currencies and more trade. this is bloomberg. ♪ francine: this is "bloomberg surveillance" from

. >> and another point of uncertainty of course is that we have part of the parliamentary tory partyay vote with labour. we also have opposition from the house of lords. to come back to your question, investors are looking at this and of uncertainty and find incapable to make investment decisions based on what will happen on brexit outcomes. we don't know what the government doesn't know itself. anna: what does the pound risk on brexit? bythe pound is more driven expectations of the bank of england. weak first-quarter economic data, notably in the service sector. the service sector pmi has recovered. that has driven it vacations at the bank -- that the bank of -- that has driven expectations that the bank of england will raise rates. and improvements in inflation could either stop or reverse, given what has happened to commodity prices and with the weakness in the pound against the u.s. dollar over the last two months. expectations at the bank of england will raise rates. i think they have to raise rates. it is supported for the pound. we have very strong support, irrespective of the

yesterday the government saw off a potential rebellion by offering a compromise to the tory party, sayingment to the house of lords that beefs up the power of parliament. but in a way that does not constrain the government's negotiating hand. that's the balance that ministers are trying to find. i bumped into one of annas udry‘s colleagues who is in the meeting with the prime minister yesterday, and he says a compromise amendment will come very soon, maybe tonight, and he seemed pretty happy. as far as he knows the content will address the concerns raised with a promise or yesterday. if it doesn't, you will probably hear cries of betrayal from some of those mps. what's the bell? that's the division bell! that's what calls mps around this huge palace, there in the bars and restaurants in their offices, telling them to dash back and vote. they have a ten minute window to do so. thank you very much, ben. that's not all the drama from today. the scottish national party's westminster leader, ian blackford, was ejected from the house of commons. ian blackford refused to sit down when ordered to

they have to start listening to business, listening to people outside of the tory party, and a lwa ysk comfort from the photos and videos of them together. she'd even send her boyfriend — mirza krupalija — messages on there as a way of working through her grief. but six months later, his profile disappeared overnight. azra says that no close family members had asked for them to be deleted. she spent a year talking to facebook trying to find out who had made the request and how it been signed over before she or the next of kin were notified. now, a high courtjudge has ordered facebook to hand over that information, but azra has been told all the pictures, videos and messages have been lost. we can speak now to azra. thank you so much for coming in today. i want to take you back to what i appreciate is an incredibly difficult period in your life. march 2016, your boyfriend, mirza, he died, very sudden, compounded the grief for you. i yes, a sudden death, he had a fatal heart attack, and it was extremely difficult to deal with. i had a lot of support from a network, my friends. i was giv
