union. and, we'll have highlights of this week's proceedings in westminster — that's in the week in parliament an hour. the president of china has said his country is facing a "grave situation" after the number of cases of coronavirus rose sharply, to more than 2,000. chinese officials say the virus is infectious in its incubation period, before symptoms show, making it harder to contain. chinese state media say 56 people have now died. chinese president xijinping held a special goverment meeting on the lunar new year public holiday, where he warned that the spread of the virus is accelerating. a nationwide ban on the sale of wildlife has been imposed. it's believed the outbreak stemmed from the illegal sale of animals at a wuhan fish market. elsewhere, the us has announced that staff at its wuhan consulate will be evacuated on a special flight on tuesday. and here, the foreign office has warned against travel to hubei province, where the virus began, and urged britons there to leave if they can. angus crawford has this report. warnings echo through wuhan, a city of 11 million almost deserted.

into account the main breck's cakes was that this westminster parliament was meant to be so pretty against a somewhat mythologized view of the european union to then abolish that very parliament to get through brics it i think will be a not too far but when you say can these disparate people unite around their opposition to that without hesitation yes all the debates are about the mechanisms how do you stop a government from doing such a thing how do you stop a government determined to go out with a no deal with that's what happens. but are they theoretically united to stop the progress of parliament and to stop no deal yes and i think the sense of that will intensify over the coming weeks rather than the opposite the that they can't agree on a vote of confidence they don't agree that the leader of the opposition jeremy corbin should become short term prime minister but they do agree on these other matters and they will find a way i think to make that absolutely clear i think the logic of this situation where you have a minority prime minister trying to force his will over a parliament which disagrees of him is the natural the natural outc
