britain would regain control... control of its borders and immigration — no more open door to people from the eu. control of employment rights and trade — a british rule book, not an eu one. control of its own trade deals with countries outside the eu like america, china and india. many say hard brexit could cause economic damage notjust to the uk but also to the eu. we are the second largest economy in the eu. since the election, things have certainly become less clear. some people believe we should now be pushing for what is described as a "softer" brexit. many argue this makes jobs and the economy the priority — more important than controlling immigration or regaining sovereignty. with a softer brexit, britain could gain special access to the single market, but we might have to make it easier for eu immigrants to work here. we could just try and stay in that eu customs union. that would allow free movement of goods, but not free movement of people. eu trade laws would still apply, which would prevent the uk

the financial so—called divorce bill britain will have to pgy- divorce bill britain will have to pay. and then there is the question of the irish border, a new frontier between the eu and uk. the message from the eu's chief negotiator was that he was still unsure about precisely what the uk position was on many issues. transmission macro we require this clarification on financial settlement of citizens rights, an island, with the two key points of the common travel area and the good friday agreement, and on the good friday agreement, and on the other separation issues. michel barnier said there was fundamental diversions on certain issues. david davis said the talks had been robust but constructive, and he admitted there was a lot left to talk about. all in all the second round of negotiations has given us a look to be positive about, and it highlighted the need sides to demonstrate a dynamic and flexible approach. we conducted this round constructively and at pace and i hope this will continue. to coin a phrase, the clock is ticking. the negotiations began on monday. even then, there

your vision for britain, a poster brexit britain, is one filled with optimism and it is not a counsel of despair are some people said. i know, theresa, that you believe passionately that the british people can do anything and can achieve anything and that you are a poster brexit britain will be are a poster brexit britain will be a britain with big horizons and big opportunities, free—trade, open markets. you are right, that is the future and that is where our prosperity has been delivered. and all that is where your prosperity in future will come. —— i know. thank you very much for your hospitality. i have been inspired by some of your reforms, in particular your reduction of company tax. you are already at 19% and heading to 17. we have made some progress in that direction but we have got away to catch up. finally can i say that it was very kind thoughts for you to invite the australian chef, the 30 year resident of london, to cook this lunch. sky 's father was a great television executive, in fact he was the first place on australian television in a tiny little studio in sydn

remember, britain is a naval power. britain's army was okay, but britain's navy was second to none. which is why gibralter was always that naval stronghold, which is why they fought so hard to keep it. and that battle raged, the siege raged for four years. and there was a battle that took place in 1782, i think september that was so fierce, the, there were something like one shell fired every three seconds and by the end of it there were explosions with mushroom clouds the same as you would see over japanese cities, 270-something years later. mushroom clouds rising over the harbor. this was just a fiercely-fought battle and britain never gave in. and they came away at the end, still in possession. so this is why i've said one of the things, you said, rosemary, very well. we've had american-centric view of the war. but many of the battles took place well outside the view or even the knowledge of the americans. the britain really wasn't beaten as much as they were just overwhelmed. >> yes? >> i enjoy your comments very much. as i understand it, these five were refugees, after the fren

had result, socialism become a powerful force in britain. , communism was a strong force in britain. there is a great deal of sympathy for the soviets. churchill and roosevelt were very much aware of this in britain at the time. the soviet union is sought to be in some places, not least the universities, to be the wave of the future. in britain, a plan was concocted by the labour party for what they called a new jerusalem. this new jerusalem was to provide every british family a proper home, proper food, proper health, proper security. of course, a worthy job. this program was something that churchill himself could not endorse. in fact, he hated communism from its very inception. he opposed the beaujolais -- bolshevik revolution. , though he was not a conservative in the classical sense of it, he would not accept the socializing of england. campaign he referred to the possibility that the socialists united kingdom would have a gestapo like a fact. that word alone probably lost in a large percentage of the margin of victory. electorateritish the hope for the future, the new jerusalem

and al-qaeda linked groups and yemen where britain arms saudi arabia to kill thousands and threaten millions it will be another theme that may be key to understanding this year's g. twenty neo liberalism joining me via skype is thomas a burns who has held high level positions of the international monetary fund the world bank the o.e.c.d. and the government of canada he's a distinguished out of the center for international governance innovation and joins me from the g. twenty in hamburg thomas welcome to going underground you've followed these supernational organizations of summits for decades has ever been business as usual as we see riot police and demonstrators gather in hamburg. well i must say i've i've never seen a summit where expectations of being so uncertain or unclear the demonstrators are one thing but more importantly on the substance of the debate we're saying over the questions of climate control environment and on trade protectionism really are potentially a retreat from where the g twenty has been and so that. we're looking at either no progress or well being backwar

europe is moving very fast and making up for britain leaving. we need to try to cover the ground that britain used to cover, and i think it is very significant that emmanuel macron was elected at this particularjuncture macron was elected at this particular juncture and has macron was elected at this particularjuncture and has lost no time in trying to show that actually france is here, france is back, france is here, france is back, france is here, france is back, france is going to be a country that makes a power that makes a difference in the world. it was very significant that his first steps where in terms of strengthening links with germany and the engine of europe, and also in steps towards russia, the right of states, this is about showing that france matters. like britain, france is a country that has its delusions of grandeur and wants to punch above its weight, and wants to punch above its weight, and so far it is early days. macron is doing very well. he is giving a very different image of france, because in the past ten years under

once he helped determine britain's place in the world. now this former prime minister must settle with commenting from the sidelines. eleanor garnier, bbc news. military coup there. president erdogan's government has in the past twelve months dismissed or arrested 200,000 people accusing them of having backed the plot. people accusing them let's hear from our correspondent mark lowen who's in istanbul. mark. mark lowen who's in istanbul. many people arrested mark but people there are celebrating. yes, there are celebrating. people here, a pretty noisy crowd, yes, people here, a pretty noisy crowd, they see it as dickie's second independence, the might last year when the people stood up the and thwarted a fifth successive coup in the history of the country, tonight president erdogan will come here to address the crowd and will speak to parliament one year from when the rubble jets speak to parliament one year from when the rubblejets bombed speak to parliament one year from when the rubble jets bombed the building. yet the opposition have

britain was ready for a completely new social regime. i might add, this persisted until margaret thatcher. domestically, why was the socialistic instruction of roosevelt's new deal ever allowed to happen with his republican constituents in the hudson valley? and were there reverberations into the 1950's? i have to say i must answer that in another book. but it is is a very good question. [laughter] maybe a quick way to answer it this is say that i was born and raised in central pennsylvania, rock rib republican territory. my daddy and my grandpa were lincoln republicans to the core. they both voted for roosevelt. would you describe the relationship between churchill and joseph kennedy? you must buy my book. [laughter] fdr and kennedy? this is a great question. joseph kennedy, we probably know, was very ambitious politically. he even contemplated running for the presidency of the united states but decided to wait for jack and joe. he was the leading democrat politician in massachusetts. he aspired to high office, especially secretary of t

you see is the impact of bricks it for britain can britain get away from the hold of the corporatocracy by exiting the european union well i think that's a step in that direction process play hopefully it will serve notice on on the european union i think the whole brics of thing and i just also after russia i was in cowes it's not and italy you know and i'm just on my way to latin american in about a week you know what we see all over the world is desperation people who are very unhappy who are very disappointed in their governments in the united states we saw it as expressed on the far left by the popularity of sanders and on the far right by the popularity of trump and then there was hillary in the middle who didn't do too well and what we're seeing everywhere is desperation and dissatisfaction and england you express that through bricks that the italians are expressing it the greeks are expressing you know the spaniards are actually i mean it's it's all over the world that we're seeing that people understand that we're living on a fragile space station and our leaders have been head

track and field success for britain but not so much out in the middle. england's cricketers have slumped to a heavy 340—run defeat against south africa in the second test at trent bridge. it means the tourists have levelled the series at one apiece with two to play. tim hague reports. practising to save this game board chased down and almost impossible world record, england's batsmen will need to be at their best but south africa's vest has been vastly superior so far and was again this morning. vernon philander got keith jennings and balance —— and gary ballance, except that town but england would need a guardian angel to get out of this one although chris morris's fall to joe root would get past the guard of anyone. the tourists were too good and you can hide your eyes, go, it is the only english monk who had any success , only english monk who had any success, alastair cook, was out on 42. another morris special arrived and the game was over by lunch. jonny bairstow and moeen ali making it even easierfor the jonny bairstow and moeen ali making i

a great night for great britain here. tomorrow, more medals are still to come, with hannah cockroft going for her third gold of these championships in the t34 400 metres. and also the t37 400 metres. two hot favourite for gold for great britain. still plenty more to come. thank you for that. the 146th open golf championship gets under way at royal birkdale tomorrow morning. it is not an easy course. whoever winds on sunday will have earned it, as did this man, henrik stenson, 12 months ago, when he produced a brilliant final round of 63 to beat phil mickelson in an epic duel at troon. tommy fleetwood, this local hiro will be playing. he's aiming to become the first british winner of the open since nick faldo in 1992. that's something being talked about, the chance to win the open, that's something else you've got to deal with. i'd much rather it be that way then nobody talking about it. it's great. looking back as a kid, 20 yea rs great. looking back as a kid, 20 years on, there's been a lot that's gone into it. to come b

for the rest of us, we have learned that britain will continue to bea learned that britain will continue to be a major economic player during and after brexit. none of it will persuade those who have doubts that britain will come through this without taking a knock. everything depends on those negotiations. ministers want and need free—flowing trade between britain and the continent. what business leaders and european leaders want is certainty. although there is plenty of pessimism and optimism among politicians at westminster, certainty now and for the foreseeable future is a commodity which is going to be in short supply. john pienaar. the parents of the terminally ill baby charlie gard are tonight waiting to find out if they'll be able to take him home to die. having abandoned their fight to keep charlie alive, his mother connie yates returned to the high court to ask that her son leave great 0rmond street hospital. a judge will make the final decision tomorrow. charlie's parents are now pleading for a doctor who can help them to come forward. our medical correspondent, fergus walsh

be changed to allow britain to stay in a reformed eu. perhaps that might give our enough to persuade some people to change their minds and brexit and to say yes, perhaps it is not worth the pain after war. but as we heard there, actually it's not just about immigration. but as we heard there, actually it's notjust about immigration. we can forget, as david was saying, that this is about taking back democratic control. perhaps tony blair's oddments don't address that. he seemed to be sketching out and argue with that suggested we would retain our membership of the single market and there are those who were arguing for that. costner worried about the consequences of that. do you think there is any appetite for reopening this issue at westminster? slim pc any opportunity or desire to have that debate or do the pretty much except that the line that reason may has made, albeit before the general election, that we're out of the customs union and single market as well that of the european union will stand? well, we're just has so many times now

britain benefits from that freedom of movement. the question is whether there are change, qualifications to it, not to alter the principle but qualifications to it, around the things that concern people. events will be held in turkey later to mark the first anniversary of a failed coup in which at least 260 people died. since the coup, the government has dismissed more than 150,000 employees from state institutions. campaigners and some mps have called for a legal clampdown to prevent acid attacks, after five attacks took place in london on thursday. two boys aged 15 and 16 have been arrested. a 15—year—old girl has died after taking a drug, formerly referred to as a "legal high", in newton abbot in devon. the girl was taken to torbay district hospital early this morning after taking the substance. gabine muguruza secures her first wimbledon victory and second grand slam with a win against venus williams in the women's singles. now on bbc news, dateline london. they are leaders, but are they leading? donald trump was treated li

the rest really tried but no one got within half a second of great britain's adam peaty. winning gold in the 50 and now he has done the double double. yes, very good. quite exhausting, switching off and switching on, especially winning the double but i'm so happy. 225 points now and i know that there is more. i don't want to spoil it for next year. now who remembers this devoted dad during the 2012 london olympics? he is the most down—to—earth, beautiful boy you will meet in your life, he... look at him he is crying like me. i love you. well south africa's chad le clos and his dad bert are still around and chad's still winning — he took gold in the 200 metres butterfly this evening, fittingly in front of bert and the rest of the le clos family and yes, the tears were flowing once more. there was frustration for celtic tonight as they were held to a goalless draw by norwegian champions rosenberg in the first leg of their champions league third round qualifier. chris mclaughlin was watching at celtic park. surely unsatisfying goalless draw the celtic in the east end o

so spain needs britain to do welljust as britain need spain to do well. we will leave it there. we will take you to the weather forecast now. quite a change from the weather that started off across southern england this morning where we had all that heavy rain and some surface water flooding and very dangerous driving conditions on the roads. we swapped that for something a little more like this, a glorious picture from cumbria. the cloud has been melting away across the southern counties, all of us bathed in sunshine and the temperatures as high as 22, so pleasa ntly warm temperatures as high as 22, so pleasantly warm in the sunshine but overnight with clear skies and like twins it allows the temperature to ta ke twins it allows the temperature to take a bit of a tumble. the temperature falling quickly but although the towns and cities not particularly cold and it could be cold enough to get some pockets of ground frost. hla start to the day on thursday but plenty of sunshine and most of the morning should stay dry. the afternoon a different story. proba

"widespread, damaging and pervasive" — the impact on britain if brexit talks fail, warns an independent report. so as they reach the end of round two — has there been any progress? plus school's out for summer. but for millions of working parents, the big question: who cares? we look at the growing problem and soaring costs of childcare. welcome to world business report. in a moment china hails significant progress in trade talks with the us despite cancelled news conferences. but first, we start in brussels, where the uk's brexit secretary, david davis, and the eu's chief negotiator, michel barnier, will wrap up their second round of talks on britain's exit later today. they are expected to give a progress report at a press conference later. so what are we looking for? they've been focusing on three areas: citizen's rights on both sides, the so—called divorce bill britain will have to pay, and the border between northern ireland and the irish republic. the eu says negotiations on the future trading relationship won't come until later. there's huge pressure to reach an agreement. ac

the idea of this transitional period, we know that britain will leave the eu in march 2019, two years after we triggered article 50, the formal process to get that. but there has been a lot of talk in recent weeks about a period that will smooth the process by which britain leads the eu so there is no so—called cliff edge for businesses, for all of us as we transition into that new relationship with europe. now, the idea of a transitional deal has caused some divisions within the cabinet. there are different members of the cabinet that support different versions of this transitional deal. theresa may likes to call an implementation period. in

to raise it may not only said things were getting better in britain she later even used the release of salaries at the state mandated b.b.c. to justify heard about chanceless remarks that public sector pay was in good shape as we've seen in the thing. those that have been released today there are some people working in the public sector who were very well paid the pm there appeared to be comparing the lowest paid public servants in britain to journalists at the b.b.c. accused of being an ogre of the leader of the s.n.p. in westminster was having none of it asking why money could even be found to cushion the blow of a policy to destroy the pensions of millions of u.k. women the prime minister has phoned up to thirty five billion potence for hank the point see you keep weapons nuclear power station up to two hundred billion to the place so i didn't miss out since i don't want to know you want to deal with it do you just so she can keep it all with joy. she seems to be able to shake the magic money tree when she wants to con the prime minister and the injustice from those women who are mi

there were places in britain that go to establish new routes. they leave home, but they find they become rooted and established as group thinkers better educated more effective effectively, but the higher education by one joke about this i sometimes say in explaining that i blame the masses.

our correspondent is at the school in britain. hello. lots of people think the brit school is just about music but it's not, if dance, musical theatre, drama, journalism. and what a formidable legacy is how. it's all about celebrating 25 years of that, we have had stars adele, amy winehouse, leona lewis and this actress who has an amazing career from leona lewis and this actress who has an amazing careerfrom selhurst leona lewis and this actress who has an amazing career from selhurst park the states. tell us about it, cush. i first heard about it on blue peter. i couldn't believe it was free, i'd had heard about performing a rts free, i'd had heard about performing arts schools but they cost money. so icame to arts schools but they cost money. so i came to an open day and i fell in love with the place. the rooms in the theatre department were what i wa nted the theatre department were what i wanted to do, painted black. i thought that was the weirdest thing i've ever seen. there was a buzz about the school, and at that time it was new.

britain's departure from the convention will take around two years. environment secretary, michael gove, said triggering the withdrawal from the agreement would lead to a more competitive, profitable and sustainable industry for the whole of the uk. the london fisheries convention was signed “119611. it currently allows other countries to catch 10,000 tonnes of fish from uk waters, worth approximately £17 million. the government believes leaving the convention will allow britain to take back control of its fishing policy. well, a little earlier, my colleague ben brown spoke to will mccallum, head of 0ceans at greenpeace uk. he said leaving the convention would not in itself deliver a better future for the uk fishing industry. we asked him whether he thought this move would bring about more sustainability for uk fishermen. the main reason we are excited about this is that this shows defra, the new minister, are prioritising fishing. there is a long list of deals to be struck, and we were worried that fishing would not be prioritised, and that those

britain wants the eu to succeed. there will be no closing off of relations and no abdication of our responsibilities. continuity and stability will be our watchwords. but any who are tempted to see our exit from the eu as evidence of britain looking inwards should think again. we havejust chosen another path to embrace the wider horizons of a truly global. as we contemplate our new place in the world, we do so with renewed confidence and optimism, acknowledging the vast fragility is that lie before us, especially when it comes to strengthening our connection with our single largest trading partner. my department recognises how important our relationship with the us is, which is why we have established a us — uk trade & investment group to strengthen our bilateral investment. we will seek to establish stability and confidence for businesses on both sides of the atlantic, and our first discussions will focus on providing commercial continuity but our ambitions are whiter. the working group is designed to provide a sp

like britain, france has its illusions of grandeurand britain, france has its illusions of grandeur and wants to punch above its weight, and so far these are early days, emmanuel macron is doing very well. he is giving a different image of france. for the past ten yea rs image of france. for the past ten years and president hollande, france was extremely weak and irrelevant. macron seems determined to change that. how much does that depend on in delivering on domestic reform? nicolas sarkozy promised it, francois hollande promised it and neither could pull it off. that is the big question. so far he is presenting all the reforms that europe has been demanding in terms of labour murky reforms, liberalisation and so on. he has a parliamentary majority to approve legislation, but what will happen in the streets? it is the streets in france that decide. the irony for britain leaving no is that at the time by mr dickens campaign for brexit began they said, europe is falling apart, old europe is not the future, france's dilapidated. now suddenly we see a vision where the european union is gro

britain is one of the countries worried about the impact of those changes. there are many areas where we work with america. we will continue to work with america. but obviously, this is an area where we are not seeing eye to eye. we believe this is not an area where we can stand still, because the human consequences are enormous, there are too many women and girls, 214 million women and girls don't get access to modern family planning measures. the uk is already the second biggest country donor in family planning. today, it is announced more money, £225 million will be spent until 2022. the government hopes the money will empower more women to have kids when they want. and to stay in education and employment if they wish. the time is 1:16. our top story this lunchtime: a major review looks at workers' rights, the gig economy, and cash—in—hand working. it says workers need better protection and employers should pay national insurance. wake up and smell the coffee — could an extra cup a day actually help us live longer? coming up in sport: johanna konta

tony blair once argued passionately that britain should remain in the eu and lost. now in his latest intervention, he has said that britain could get a better deal on immigration while remaining part of the single market. something many thought impossible. so is he an incurable optimist? 0r delusional, blair was asked. i think what is important is to understand that there is already a lot that we know now that we did not know a year ago when we took the decision. we know, for example, that our currency is down significantly, that's a prediction by the international markets as to our future prosperity. we know that businesses are already moving jobs out of the country and we know this time last year we were at the fastest—growing economy in the g—7 and we are now the slowest. i think we now know there is not £350 million a week extra for the national health service. in the short and medium—term there is less money. tony blair has set out his case in an article for his institute for global change. but their scepticism over whether there is really the political

the two most instructive are the rise of the us relative to britain and the cold war. in the case of the us, the british had two problems, a rising germany that was more approximate and seen as a threat because the germans were building a navy that seemed threatening. most americans are uncomfortable, teddy roosevelt is one of my heroes. i'm a big admirer of teddy roosevelt. i tell the story of america, emerging into what teddy roosevelt was confident would be an american century which it was. a 37-year-old arrives in washington. it was the secretary of the navy, assistant secretary, the number 2 person. had been railing about the abomination of spain in our hemisphere. and seeing them, what happened in the decade after teddy roosevelt arrives in washington? you could read in the chapter about it. the ship in havana harbor, to declare war against spain, puerto rico, that is how guam to be part of it. teddy roosevelt could connect the atlantic and pacific. sponsored a coup, and the car now. and the british and germans settle the matter. and any discretionary. threatens
