is much worse than the deal that the u.k. at the moment has including for example the british rebate so they think why should we be yond what we already have and they essentially a lot of them really do want to stay within the european union and there are others and they're mostly insite reserve mates own conservative party on the right of our party who think that this deal ties the u.k. much too closely to the european union and for also an indefinite time because of the so-called back start stop which clarifies the situation of northern ireland after after the withdrawal period of two years so they think the u.k. should cut lose completely and cut loose immediately and something even they shouldn't that the u.k. shouldn't pay any money to the european union without having a free trade deal so they think it's basically to favor to the e.u. and the other still wanted for the sake of the u.k. so the briggs's vote in parliament reflects a deep about leaving the european union what does it tell us about confidence and teresa may

the u.k. canada and the latest country to make such a statement was our island however if we go back to canada poll brother couldn't even confirm whether he still had a canadian passport or not which does sound very strange but that's the way it is right now he's now in detention in moscow having been charged with espionage although his brother says that the only reason he went to russia was to attend a friend's wedding party the us ambassador had been given permission to see the suspect then so he did mr whelan's lawyer is seeking bail for his client for now we aren't really aware of any other details but journalists all around the world are talking about it and speculation is rife he faces up to twenty years in a russian jail to look masculine she had time to be small. that's what's most likely as we'll as a pawn in russia just play to get back one of its spies after maria patino here in the united states in the rehab boots do you believe the arrest of your brother was retaliation and was re

let's check, though, how the u.k. and mainly european markets are trading on the back of the u.k. vote as well, and we are seeing the ftse 100 in the u.k., again, react the markets may be anticipating this outcome down about .6% on the mainland, again, very slight moves and anything minor to the upside for germany and france what about in the currency markets? we have to look at the pound sterling again, actually a change it appears as though with all the guest that is we have had over the last couple of days and weeks that the market anticipated this outcome and has set itself up for it as always, we've got the best coverage in the business for this historic time and last night's brexit vote, and we begin where it all began with a resounding defeat for the u.k. prime minister theresa may. steve sedgwick live outside the u.k. parliament with manager on what happened and what will happen >> brian, resounding is only quite a solid word, but it doesn't even go near to say the size of the defeat of mrs. may suffered last night. 118 of our own mp's, which is way more than her own wits

which actually the u.k. could really do with us at the moment so what i would recommend is we've just got to. we've got america australia the commonwealth councils just hearing up to do free trade deals with us there's a big wide world out there ninety three percent of all world trade is done outside of the year now we're in a strong negotiating position so i think all this talk of general elections is just ridiculous we're in a very very strong negotiating position to get on that train mrs my you tell them in here exactly what we want and i bet you there deliver it. yes some fascinating words i do wonder if there is a move. to them and show a little more strength in the gauche asians of can be interesting to watch see how things unfold many thanks my guest is an independent british member of the european parliament. said to the global news now venezuela's facing political deadlock after the country's opposition leader announced that his party was ready to form a new government this is after he refused to re

the u.k. is heading towards a no deal despite there being no agreement it scares everybody the first losers of this are the british people maybe we can improve on one or two points i don't really believe that because we went to so far as we could in the existing agreement . just in. order to try and solve a problem of british internal politics we want not defend the interests of europeans the plenary session is taking place currently in the european union parliament it's being led by people of course talking about breaks it might have been hoping that they could have been dotting the i's and crossing the t.'s on this deal today but not so it looks like it's back to the drawing board and in fact there are warnings now that a high risk deal is a very likely outcome. of a no deal has never seemed so high our goal is to avoid such a scenario but we also have a responsibility to remain cool headed which is why i wouldn't turn. to this possibility many voices are now suggesting that a second referen

here in the u.k. and they seem to be lobbying for it rather strongly not only that but we're also hearing murmurs from brussels that article fifty which is the date that britain is set to leave at the moment except for the twenty ninth of march this year it's coming out very shortly that could be extended not just for a couple of months as was previously thought but because of the scale of the political turmoil here in the u.k. over gregg's it that could be extended persons departure from the e.u. potentially until next year but you know this is the never ending story the chaos continues in the political confusion it with the briggs's and u.k. politics many things poorly with the latest from london. with reason is victory comes just twenty four hours remember the day of defeat a draft brigs that divorce agreement opposed by an overwhelming majority of fellow and p's including many conservative rebels. surprisingly have been a lot of interest in the events in westminster over the last few days particul

and the u.k. already were by the united kingdom has proposed to exempt small businesses from customs checks which the e.u. has refused so i think the solution will have to lie in. flexibility and we need some flexibility we need some acceptance that there may be a little customs hole in ordinance and i don't think that is so unreasonable why because there are already two giant customs holes into the e.u. secrets customs border and those are the ports of antwerp and rotterdam where many goods are entering europe and only a tiny fraction is being checked and. full of patients in my own country belgium from hunter of have been saying that there are many problems with that so it would be completely irrational knots to allow a little bit of flexibility. at the very unimportant part of the u.s. customs border in northern ireland catherine is a no deal breck that still a possibility think that could happen. i think it's very definitely still a possibility and was delighted to see that the two amendments

the u.k. is not ready, our resilient structures are not in place to deal with a no deal brexit. a bit more time, neither side wants there to be a no deal. here's the plan around which the majority of conservatives, mps and ministers can: us. i hope the prime minister will take it forward. anna: this sounds like recasting from scratch the brexit deal at the 11th hour. both sides are compromising. it is one of the things that has been missing from this process. certainty,give that the backstop moves to the front of the process and becomes an indefinite proposal for trade and no -- all sides commit. anna: does it have any reach across the aisle? there arewill, but people who are not sure about it. there are a lot of labor mps who know that we are not -- they want to see an agreement in place but are concerned about an extension to article 50. i hope people will look at this. can move forward to talk about the next stage. anna: you want an extension. which what you're complement -- your extension

yes thing that the u.k. taxpayer should pick up the bill for a terrorist mobster mind to come to the u.k. live off benefits and then when he does get deported back to jordan we further pick up an extra two hundred thousand now if that's not well nihilistic perhaps is a better word that anarchist take but either way it's pretty imbecilic the fundamental fact is that this guy was by any definition an out qaeda terrorist mastermind i'm glad that he was deported i mean i am disappointed that we've had to spend two hundred thousand pardons to look after his well for in jordan when that money could have been spent much better for example keith here in the u.k. looking after british victims of our qaeda violence wouldn't you agree with me with me or not point where would you like to see the line expand on another universe or is victims who chose i'm only slightly disturbed david that seems to be that your opinion as to whether somebody is wrapped up in criminality or not is sufficient to convict them i actually lik

we're hearing from the u.k. at the moment, the leaders of oriness conglomerates overall groupings, are saying this is terrible. all we need is transparency. how much is it affecting business sentiment? maria: right. again, another good point. if you remember throughout the past year, there was this idea that they make so it to the u.k. and the german automakers who were obviously not doing as great as they wanted to be right now because of trade but also because of brexit uncertainty would lobby and push angela merkel to take a softer tone. the reality is despite the warnings, despite concern, the eu 27 has put together for two years. everyone stood behind them. nobody has said anything that goes against his position or are official line from the european union. going back to business, they want to get a clear sense of what is going on p we have heard it from a number of companies. again, the long-term strategic priority, and business gets less, is to preserve the single market. the eu will not do anything that

what a tough day for the british prime minister the u.k. opposition leader. the. british. plan was overwhelmingly rejected by. a major brand of men's shaving products. called. how dear. presumptive presumptuous as you imply. evil by nature i completely disagree and think it's absolutely fantastic that focusing on the positives there's actually a way to generalize men being. on the positives there is actually some men out there doing the right thing. the green new deal or us project to cope with the economic and ecological issues is raising concerns among politicians and green activists themselves. in the sixteenth and eight zero zero. one am here in moscow it's already becoming a busy day for your welcome to the program. in the most important vote since the day of the referendum and twenty sixteen the parliament has overwhelmingly rejected to reserve major e.u. divorce deal the prime minister lost by a whopping margin of two hundred thirty votes it is the biggest defeat of the government in modern british history. this is the most significant for. any of us will be told th

parliamentarians the hardliners in the u.k. who want to hard drugs it but an overwhelming majority does not want it and others are a little hopeful thinking that maybe this will give way to a second referendum maybe this will give way to the u.k. in the end somehow actually staying in the european union and what about the problem with ireland in northern ireland you know the backstop issue that is something that seems to be the issue that cannot be solved is there any indication from brussels from the european union that there is any maneuvering there or is it now time for the european union to make sure that it protects the interests of the republic of ireland. the problem brant of all this and not many people like to talk about it openly but they do behind closed doors of course is this red line of a hard border between northern ireland and ireland becomes completely obsolete if you have a hard drags the day after that the irish people the irish state which is part of the european union will be obliged to have border controls

just bear that in mind overall, u.k. inflation in the u.k. -- u.k. inflation has cooled now, i want to get over to sterling as well check out how sterling as well as the broader currency markets are fairing this morning now, sterling throughout the course of the morning has been firming. right now we are seeing it up about 20 basis points to 1.2883. of course, yesterday in reaction to the vote we saw some sharp moves in sterling initially going lower in a knee jerk reaction to the result, but then rallying, and now this morning we are seeing that rally continue euro versus sterling is around that .88 number, and sterling versus the yen about 1.39. there's a look at sterling crosses for you. let's get into equity markets. this morning it was looking like a positive picture across the board. now in the last minutes of trade we have seen a downturn in ftse shares as well as dac shares looking at the ftse first. we are seeing stocks there trade down about 60 basis points remember, a lot of those export exposed stocks are reacting, in part, to the news th

is still putting out a hand to the u.k. that's not to say that every country who is a member of the e.u. feels the same. the e.u. -- the u.k. has done a good job of accepting member -- many e.u. members. there's the option of extending article 50, therefore delaying brexit, and maybe not happening at all. brent: what are our options right now? for rv viewers who may just be joining us, the deal prime minister theresa may presented rejected tonight pucci said she will come back with an alternative plan. alex: what can she really come back with within three days? brent: so what happens then? that say we are headed toward a second referendum. what would that look like and how would we get to that? alex: there would have to be agreement in parliament, legislation put forward, there would have to be a majority of mps and also in the house of lords as well to agree to that and vote on it for that to happen. brent: is there support for that right now? alex: is there support within the house of commons? yes, there is some support,

have lost the u.k. rebate and be forced to pay whatever was demanded alternatively the backstop would come into force an arrangement with which there is no time limit or end point it locks britain into a deal from which it cannot leave without the agreement of the e.u. and as my friend a member of a hogan it's imperative pointed out in so many occasions this is unprecedented in british history. the last two years gives us no confidence that this government can do a deal in under two years so some points before december twenty twenty the focus would then inevitably shift from negotiations on the future relationship to negotiations on an extension to the transition period including negotiations on what further payments we should make to the european union. the vedic partnership documents say yes and i quote it can lead to a spectrum of different outcomes as well as checks and controls that doesn't show to me any clarity whatsoever in that document. and there is not even any mention of the famed frictionle

the u.k.'s financial services sector how much more money will will be will be lost this figure came out just a few days ago from e y. and we expect at least the same amount of money to also be moved. we alone have a very clear indications that about eight hundred billion of us dollars in assets will be moved into frankfurt was going this year and what about jobs. how many are we talking about jobs being lost in london jobs being moved from london to to europe or jobs being created locally in europe. like you said there will be various ways in which jobs will be impacted the latest study which came out by iraq he said about seven thousand jobs i expected to be in two thousand and ninety eight i think that's a that's a fair assessment but first of all already before a few thousand jobs have been moved and depending on the outcome of the final results another couple of thousand jobs may or may not be moved depending on that. how would that impact people having to move from london into into contine

citizens in the u.k. and u.k. citizens in the e.u. who are waiting to have their status confirmed we have already committed to ensuring that e.u. citizens in the u.k. will be able to stay and to continue to access in country benefits and services on broadly the same terms as now in both a deal and a no deal scenario indeed the next phase of testing of the scheme for e.u. nationals to confirm their status has launched today and having listened to concerns from members and organizations like the three million group i can confirm today that when we roll out the scheme in full on the thirtieth of march the government will waive the application fee so that there is. so there is no. financial barriers to nationals who wish to stay. and anyone who plans all will look like during the pilot phase will have their fee reimbursed and more details about how this will work will be made available in two calls some some e.u. member states have similarly guaranteed the rights of british nationals in a no deal scenario and we will step up our efforts t
