policy to leave the european union as soon as possible and i regret the fact it has not been possible, i tried three times to do it and we have not built a majority in the house. and everybody knows the house has also rejected no deal and other actions, including the people's vote, and by the legislation that was passed in -- it compelled us to seek an extension. and as you know, i saw that extension for the 30th of june but the council, after deliberations, gave it until the 31st of october. so we can leave at any point up until that time. and we will leave at the end of the month in which parliament ratifies the withdrawal agreement. it is important, because i want that to happen before the october deadline. and once that is reached, members should look to pass legislation and i assume this is practically possible. we have been making efforts to build on that consensus. we have talked about workers parliamenthe role of we have worked on the agreement itself, which the house chose not to do, but the right thing for us to do is reach out to the opposition. >> there are differ

result of e.u. ordered budget cuts. i wouldn't want 3 years in the european union not to because i don't like it because some of the measures i went probably means that they are not with the people there with the money the european union is not there people cheering you on. it's a capitalist union. many on the greek left a critical of the e.u. in 2015 the new left wing prime minister and access to press called a referendum on where the greece should accept new bailout conditions sent by brussels 61 percent of voters said no but their voice remained heard. a huge finance ministers worked out a new deal they demanded even more austerity from greece which had a severe impact on the country's economy. does the same when the use of these measures did fail damage to the greeks perception of democracy. and i believe this was the moment when people across southern europe especially young people started to turn against the e.u. and that's what opened. the money that i want. at the demonstration we meet again chana she's 28 and has a degree in marketing but right now she's working at a super

european union without a deal and that is what we continue to work for but it is not entirely in the hands of government as to what happens there. parliament has to ratify an agreement that they made with us to leave with a deal and so far parliament has not been willing to do that although parliament has also not been willing to accept no deal but the extension and decisions at the end of that where we could get to that without a deal ratified and with having left the european union i hope we don't come to that position . it would not simply be a decision of the government as to what happens, because obviously at that point , there would be a request for further extension, that would be in the hands of the european union as well. >> you referred to the talks of the opposition. if they can't reach agreement as you just said, you're going to put a number of options to the house, will that be a decision for the customs union? >> what we would do is discuss with the opposition because we want this to be a process with which we have discussed with the official opposition and which they a

no deal? prime minister may: we want to leave the european union with a deal. that's what we continue to work for. but of course it is not entirely in the hands of the government as to what happens there. first of all, parliament has to ratify an agreement that enables us to leave with a deal. and so far parliament has not been willing to do that. they have not been willing to accept no deal. but the extension and decision at the end of that were we to get to that is it of october date, and without having left the european union, i sincerely hope we don't come to that position, it would not simply be tea significance for the government as to what happened, because obviously at that point were there to be request for further extension that would be in the hands of the 27 members of the european union. >> you referred to the talks of the opposition. if they can can reach agreement, as you said, are you going to put a number of options to the house, will that include an option for the customs union? prime minister may: what we intend to do to discuss with the opposition, we would want th

have to stand up the ?ontracts again p.m. may: we want to leave the european union with a deal. but it is not entirely in the hands of the government. parliament has to ratify an agreement that enables us to leave with a deal. parliament has not been able to do that. and has not been able to accept no deal. that 31st oft to dealer date without a ratified and without having left the european union, i hope we don't come to that position, it would not simply be the decision of the government what happened. point, were there to be a request for a further extension, that would be within hands of the european union as well. >> you referred to the talks of the opposition. if they cannot meet an agreement, you will put a number of options to the house. will this include an option for a customs union? >> we would want this to be a process with which we have discussed. we would discuss with them the options that would be put before the house. >> would it include a customs in? p.m. may: one of the discussions we have been having, and i've said this publicly as well, is the whole question about

obligation on there is absolutely no obligation on the european union to a great alternative arrangements and indeed the final decision as to whether they accept them or view them as reasonable, is entirely a matter for them. it wouldn't even be a member of objective assessment. there will be no means of getting out of a customs union. we have put forward to the house today, a package of proposals. it is a new package of proposals. it is a new package of proposals. the right honourable gentleman has been clear in relation to the operation of the backstop, one of the concerns is making it uk wide and the commitment is there. we are happy to sit down and discuss how we can ensure these are enshrined in law, which i know it has always been an issue of concern to the right honourable gentleman. with regard to the alternative arrangements, the groups to do that work being set up by government, the money being afforded by government to do that work. but the european union were clear, they have committed themselves in the legally binding commitments being made at recent council meetings, they wi

voted for us a lot of people in the european union voted for us and that is what i have in mind and again defied is this democratization this parliament the recession of the european union and people take it serious the european elections then the leaders should also take it serious what happens today that is what i am asking for and having this democratic principles in mind i think suze who will finally. have to join together have to find a common understanding for the future suze parties have to respect who is number one who is number 2 is the number 3. in the question who is has finally the really leading growth again for us i don't i don't feel a real powerful victory today i can only say that i am happy that we arrived as a strong us political family that is a big achievement that was our main goal when we started our campaign to arrive again as a group you can ask for the right to lead but we're open for all the other contributions we're open for content and we're open for other contributions when it is about the distribution of the posts on european level. that's one 5th of u

on the topic of table manners questioning the way people in the european union manipulate their knives and forks. in front of the 500000000 democratic citizens but we are all trying to eat like the queen of england there's a certain absurdity to that cultural rules to find and dominate our lives to a massive degree and thus any message of our work is to look at culture from a new perspective and see how different it could be. completely different to the exhibition at the victoria and albert museum encourages visitors to look beyond their own plates self destructive consumption unbridled lust for meat globalized exploitation it's a complex situation that can be hard to swallow. that you can kind of preserve in the gallery who is saying very cross disciplinary safety doesn't say the books it's about science culture it's about economics it's about psychology some of the exhibits get straight to the point these cabs facial expressions might inspire a guilty conscience in steak lovers. the chickens require a closer look there remains show that the bone meal of organically raised anim

voter turnout came to an end signaling a renewed interest in european union policies. >> reporter: big headlines here at the european parliament election center was voter turnout. voter turnout came in at a whopping 50.5%, an 8% gain on voter turnout from 2014 and the first time in the history of these elections that voter turnout actually increased. they've been on a steady decline since the elections first happened in 1979. it was a figure i can tell you that will leave many eu officials pleased. vo low voter turnout long been seen as a signal of voter apathy. this showing that europeans are more enthusiastic about these elections. the so-called grand coalition surprised of center right, center left parties for the first time lost its majority. to put this in perspective, between 2014 and 2019, 74% of the legislation that made its way through european parliament was passed because of the grand coalition. well, that coalition is grand no more. now those parties are going to have to be looking at smaller groupings for some sort of coalition to be able to pass legislation. we've se

union? the government once to abide with the european union on goods to keep frictionless trade. while at the same time wants to pursue trade deals which would undermine this process. it's simply not compatible. the technology they need to continue to pursue their chequers plan simply doesn't exist. it's already been ruled by the eu as illegal, impractical, and an invitation to fraud. and, mr. speaker, the government has failed to provide in the economic analysis to show this would make us better off. why would the house support such a chaotic and desperate approach? labour set out a sensible, compromised to plan over a year ago, including a comprehensive and permanent customs union with the eu that gives us a say, that would allow us to strike trade deals as part of the world's biggest trading block, ring investment while maintaining the highest standards. it's credible and achievable. and the best way to protect industry manufacturing of jobs, something this government is willfully indifferent to, and the latest crisis in the steel industry shows today. the government must be

they've been losing inside the european union go ahead in paris. i think i think you are right i will see from that the same time you can let me explain to you because the results are not so clear that he threw the we were expecting a breakthrough of euro skeptics but these are the only a few counties and my challenge is the counties where actually the. carrying of. my own country that where of course we have been suffering from the wrong body you mentioned before but not not only not known in some other countries use. of protests that came out most not abused by you but have been doing better you had almost so. i mean i'm always trying to. restrain from. patients on one side of the room so not only in europe of course not only in europe i mean fighting against the what you call the elite and all this talk of war but then you're saying very high. you know these policies are using the challenge but it's not true sure the answer to your people who want let's go read the hero that these soldiers something that they're very that's a very spare that's a very fair point ok but i think

something more or stop losing what they've been losing inside the european union go ahead in paris. i think i think you're right i would have the same time because let me explain to you because there is that some not so clear back but he it's true that we were expecting a. slew of us. but these up and only a few counties and not by chance is the counties where actually the. need is. carrying the body more and you know my own country that where of course we have been suffering go up from the wrong body. but not not on not knowing how to use these how in some other countries it's a very different way of protests that came out most not of these new green parties that have been doing very well at almost so. i mean them i'm always trying to. restrain from simply sticking to patients on one side of the room. and not only in europe of course in europe i mean fighting against what you call the elite that would pull this war but then you're saying these policies are using the challenge but it's not true sure that the un sort of you young people who want us let's go and read the fuel that these

within the e.u. parliament some analysts are saying the future of the european union is at stake we'll talk to our guests in just a moment 1st though this report from osama bin in the land. but it is deputy prime minister and interior minister is hoping to upset the status school during this european nick. he plans to do it with the help of euro skeptics and immigrant nationalists still are pulling crowds in ailing economies will be out more. i need to do everything that is right to free this country this continent from the illegal occupation organized by brussels. instead of traditional billboards and t.v. ads social media has been instrumental in getting the league's message across and making inroads into traditional left leaning cities such as milan and it found an audience in the richer parts of northern italy where some relate to slogans such as why should we pay for others who don't contribute as much. and xander morelli has been bit salvini since the beginning he built a divided e.u. balls. into france decided to start a military operation against libya which caused very serious

cannot blame all of the european union for the events of the whole point of the european union was to find common solutions to common problem we did that you didn't do and you know that you don't you know block that tim they are bones. the extreme right politic politicians who went close to power over a sitting governments are the one who are blocking the entire as island package and migration package that the european parliament majority has voted including the reform of the dublin regulation i was there for 10 years to do it ourselves by politicians like or by who say not only we don't like it we don't even want to negotiate it going against the whole way european politics is that so nationalist populist are already so we says why do what you have here you do it. the problem. you yes 1st the turkey the council to see you as well 1st of 1st a turkey and then the libya. and that and well either of those 2 warrior league laureus lee did that we did we need to work with our external partners of course also so it's ok in libya where there can be incarcerated for years now and i don't i d

institutions shows that people start to understand how relevant to european union is and that it really affects the daily life and they future their one mark and ability their one more transparency i think they will ask much more participation for whatever is going on around europe in the future so my damn way of spinning it isn't the fact is that the party you sat with the european people's party is still there yes well it's held there yes it's growing the way europeans who say we don't want the status quo status quo those doesn't work extreme right populist did not have. the earthquake they expected there have been actually have an earthquake of scandals and the liberal liberal conservative forces are stronger than previously the greens advantaged the socialist collapsed dick stream left lost almost 50 seats finance the no that was the far right it all was there so you hold the door open for them during the last 5 years i think this is not the time for blame game me this is the time to sign for the truth isn't it time to look at what happened the achievements of the last 5 year

undermine the european union and. the imagination though how exactly that will pan out once they sit down in committees and try and find common ground. but what is fascinating is the 2 end of the spectrum so let's call them the whatever the nationally so order globalists extremely similar challenges despite being so different from. indeed 23 of question there. liberals in germany call themselves liberals in front would never even dear of calling themselves liberals because when you use the word liberal in france you lose elections right away and again for instance absolutely absolutely completely and also the positioning the liberals have towards the concept of european integration he's far more critical than the european liberals in brussels so to speak and so the old struggle with these contradictions on both on the spectrum screens liberals on the one hand and nationalists on the other the ones that will manage to sort it out will be the ones that will manage to sway things ok there's a lot more to talk about for sure i just want to bring our viewers up to speed who might just be

states of the european union but because they're trying to escape a situation where there are subject to abuse torture where they face were or even death so in istanbul it's a very lucrative business for the militias and the criminal gangs the incorporate with each other is there a connection between the militias in libya and criminal gangs and all they cooperating with each other. well well that you know from previous experiences around the world you know that whenever. there is a problem like the refugees there will be militias and criminal gangs that try to make some money out of it and it's no different in libya the government of national accord faces a lot of problems. some of it is because of lack of international support some of it is because of the europeans and their conflicts around immigration policy and some of it is due to internal politics and the support for example of the immoralities and the egyptians and the saudis of general have to who refuses to recognize the government of national accord and attacks it on every in every which way he can the latest of which is an att

critical of the democracy deficit in the european union the distance between the the the voters and i will continue to use the term elites because that's what they are they're very pampered and well taken care of elites in europe ok but one of the things i think is very important is that there is a democratic surge people want to use the ballot box what i worry about is that these people that want to hear their voice heard they will be continued to be ignored and i think that is what the real danger is here because people who want to use democracy to change their lives that's what they expect go ahead and brussels. well you are absolutely right i think that the people will not be pleased by the solutions that will be found by the traditional parties that will of course continue with our style and majority of typically pro european parties by the way we're all pro european we're all europeans we know that even the brits want to leave they feel europeans who we have something in common of course we do but we don't want to have this united states of europe that the present elitist trying

european union should do more to solve a situation which is currently getting worse and worse as we speak so the other question is stumble there is a geo political element to all of this you mentioned saudi arabia the u.a.e. as being key players in backing khalifa haftar and his attack on tripoli and then you have the un backed government in tripoli itself fighting effectively for its life why doesn't the european union the u.n. place pressure on. the u.a.e. to stop their backing for holly for have to why do we have all of these players creating a situation that's leading to this refugee crisis. well first of all to go back to your guest's comment about finding a way to stablish humanitarian corridors and so on i mean before the current conflict we were faced with a lack of a unified. european policy on immigration now that smashed by a lack of european policy on how to deal with libya politically you see the conflict between the italians and the french and the french and the rest of europe and so on of course this lack of policy. has continued since mr mccrone initiated the current round

think we should at least drive to that this is one of the unique selling points of the european union they told new member countries you can come in and then we have an increase in g.d.p. per capita and for country some countries you see that for poland for a lot of eastern countries you saw a strong increase in g.d.p. per capita father countries greece and spain they left behind after the financial crisis so it's basically what we should do have better policies in place too to lift up everybody ok but that of course requires to still be a member of the e.u. we know that britain voted to leave the e.u. because they say they have been better opportunities outside the block how supportive or perhaps how restrictive is the e.u. to its member states so in a way that is restrictive because all the policies that for instance china also the united states puts in place to create new technologies by subsidies and so on to force are not in place and european and the european union at the moment. of course britain could do that out of the block but then it would lead to huge markets that it needs to

to agree on a deal with the european union. the prime minister. >> thank you mr. speaker. with permission before i make my statement ai recognized authors over the years have campaigned a to ensure that those in the workplace have safety and security that they need. with permission i'd like to make a statement on the governments work to deliver by putting for the new deaanew deal that membee house can stand behind. we need to see brexit through. i sincerely believe most members of the house feel that for all of the divisions and agreement we believe in democracy so we want to make good on a promise we madthe promisewe made the brn we offered to decide on the future of the membership. as to how we make that happen, it shows there is no majority in this house leaving with no deal and for those revoking the 450 it is clear the only way forward is leavingin with a deal but equally clear that this will not happen without compromise on all sides of the debate. that's why we just held six weeks of detail with the opposition of talks with rebel leader chose to end before the agreement

enough support. the uk has extended deadline of octotober 31 to agree on a deal with the european union. >> the prime minister. >> thank you. before i make mypp statent, to recognize the work of others and indeed all those over the years who have ensured that those in the workplace can have safety and security they need. i like to make a statement from the governor. putting forward a new deal. we need to see brexit through, and to deliver the change for these peoples. i clearly can see thahat most members of the house are. this agreement, we believe in democracy. we want to make the promise we made the british people, when we decide on a future of the membership. as to how we make it happen, recent polls show that there's no majority in the house for leaving with no deal. the house of brexit o i. it's clear only way forward leaving with a deal, it is equally clear that this will not happen without compromise on all sides of the debate. that starts with the government which is why we just held six weeks with your permission to work in opposition for the mereement. we all have common ground. etha

political structures, out of the union, we will stop british laws being enforced by a european court. we will end free movement. we will stop making fast annual payments to the eu budget. by any definition that is known as delivering brexit and by linking with a deal we can do so much more besides. we can protect jobs, guarantee workers' rights, maintain the close security partnerships that do so much to keep us all safe. we will ensure there is no hard border between northern ireland at ireland. and we can bring an end to the month, years of increasingly bitter argument and division that of both polarized and paralyzed our politics. we can move on, move forward and get on with the jobs we were sit your to do, what we got into politics to do. that is what we can achieve if we can forge the studio. reject it and all we have before us is division and deadlock. we risk leading with no deal,, something this house is clearly against. we risk stopping brexit altogether, something the british people, something the british people would simply not tolerate. we risk creating further division.

without an agreement? government's policy is that we want to leave the european union with a deal. that is what we continue to work for. it is not entirely in the hands of the government as to what happens. parliament has to ratify an agreement that enables us to leave with a deal. so far parliament has not been able to do that or except no deal. decision wouldnd be to get to that october date without a deal ratified, and without having left the european union. i sincerely hope we don't come to that position. it would not be the decision of the government as to what happened. at that point, where there to be a request for further extension, that would be in the hands of 27 members of the european union. >> you referred to the tops of the opposition. if they can't reach agreements you will put a number of oppositions to the house here it will that include options for the customs union? >> we will discuss with the opposition because we want this to be a process, which we have discussed with the opposition, and which they were able to support her it we would discuss the options that

ready on the 31st of october to leave the european union on whatever terms. it was a disastrous election for the opposition labour party and the ruling conservatives who had their lowest national election result in their history. this is the worst result in our party's history in elections. we are also watching closely for the su ccesses we are also watching closely for the successes or otherwise of populist and nationalist parties. in france, marine le pen beat emmanuel macron. translation: emmanuel macron has no choice but to dissolve the national assembly and make it a more democratic election that reflects the opinion of the country's people. as if we did not have enough political drama, the austrian government has collapsed after the chancellor and his government lost a vote of no confidence. when you have an election with 28 countries and an electorate of 415 million, and a range of different electoral systems, there was never going to be one story that came out of this, there was going to be many. across the next hour we will take you through all that most significant results and

the only party with a clear policy on how the uk will leave the european union. mr batten said he hoped the elections wouldn‘t take place, but inisted he was confident of success if they did. president trump‘s attorney general, william barr, is preparing to face questions from the senate‘sjudiciary committee, after us special counsel robert mueller wrote to him to express frustration at mr barr‘s summary of the investigation into links between russia and donald trump‘s election campaign. robert mueller, who conducted the investigation into alleged russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, said mr barr‘s four—page summary did not fully capture his report‘s "context, nature, and substance". he added it had caused "public confusion about critical aspects" of the results of the two—year investigation. i‘m joined now by our washington correspondent dan johnson. we really do not know how this is going to pan out, but we know he‘s going to pan out, but we know he‘s going to pan out, but we know he‘s going to be under pressure. yes, this is going to

want to reduce in the european union not to because i don't like it because some of the measures i meant probably means that they are not with the people there with the money the european union is not a people going on with solidarity it's a capitalist union. many on the greek left a critical of the e.u. in 2015 the new left wing prime minister and access to press called a referendum on whether greece should accept new bailout condition step by brussels 61 percent of voters said no but they voice remained heard. a huge finance ministers worked out a new deal they demanded even more austerity from greece which had a severe impact on the country's economy. i'm glad it's the same when the. these measures did fatal damage to the greeks perception of democracy the movement and i believe this was the moment when people across southern europe especially young people started to turn against the e.u. . and thus have opened. the money that i want to be at the demonstration we meet. she's $28.00 and has a degree in marketing but right now she's working at a supermarket for listen for euro's a

british prime minister theresa may discusses the ongoing negotiations on a deal for the european union, education initiatives -- this runs about 45 minutes. mr. bercow: order. questions to the prime minister. mr. allen brown. mr. speaker, may i start by thanking the net -- the mental health foundation for organizing this year's mental health awareness week? we are investing in record levels in mental health. we want to make sure people receive the treatment and care where they need it. i had meetings with ministerial colleagues in addition to my duties in the house, i am joining world leaders and internet companies for tackling terrorist views of the internet. >> allen brown. >> i would like to say that as well. -- approved and after receiving in this cabinet but -- [indiscernible] having to get these answers of the prime minister, make sure the u.k. service nhs blood and , transplant undertakes a case review to identify why this malignancy was not picked up earlier and why red flags were not identified post-operation? pm may: the honorable gentleman has clearly raised a very concerning case, and

european union. labour say her problems go beyond brexit. this country is seeing the rich get richer while the poor get poorer, while the government is in the pockets of a super—rich elite. and a leaked report on the deaths of nhs patients prompts questions to ministers. at least 19 people with learning disabilities who died had learning disabilities or down‘s syndrome given as the reason not to resuscitate them. all that to come and more. but first, prime minister's questions. on tuesday evening, theresa may and jeremy corbyn met for an hour to discuss brexit. downing street said the talks were positive. labour were rather less effusive. but the outcome is that number 10 says mps will get a chance another chance to vote on the prime minister's brexit deal as the government brings forward the long awaited withdrawal agreement bill, in the week beginning june 3. but when it came to the penultimate pmqs before the euro elections, the labour leader left it to others to raise brexit. and for the second successive question time, theresa may faced a call to quit from her own side. for

in 1957 this was the 1st step towards the european union a founding member italy is now europe's problems child with the populist parties in power campaigning against the e.u. we saw were not a more this government has really poisoned the discourse but i am a social interaction but italy also has strong antibodies. italia the battle isn't over yet. no and. predict the outcome in court so it's not political if you. get in budapest reminders of the glory days of the austro hungary an empire about remnants of the communist era have largely been swept aside and those in power would prefer to forget 2004 as well that's the year hungry join the european union . for viktor orban and his governing party fidesz the e.u. is the enemy on election posters that declared war on the block and its immigration policy is it's no coincidence there is no e.u. flag flying at the hungary and parliament often a source of controversy m.p.'s from far right party jobbik even threw one out the window. into the e.u. flag also plays a role in this new film a pro european activist tries to hang one up this sc

we leave the european union, delivered by a smooth, orderly brexit, as we seek a new deep and special partnership, including a comprehensive free trade and customs agreement with the european union. i'm committed to those objectives, i believe we have agreed a deal that delivers on those. it was last night that theresa may gave the signal for a vote in earlyjune. leaving parliament after an hour—long meeting withjeremy corbyn, she is keeping those cross—party lines of communication open. but labour is not for budging, saying it won't support a deal unless the government gives more ground. unless there is a deal, unless we can convince our side there is a deal worth supporting, this could be the fourth occasion when her deal goes down. after weeks of these cross—party talks with labour, the government has made its move. there is now a deadline for those talks, as well as a date for a political showdown in parliament but there is little sign that the maths, in terms of votes, has shifted in theresa may's favour, so many will see this as a last throw of the dice from a prim

parties but we're breaking open this grand coalition europe the european union has been effectively govern by a grand coalition center right center left and those parties by and large not have a by and large were punished and they said no we're going to vote for greens and liberals are near enough to do business with them on climate change on trade and let's not forget migration i mean 5 years ago everyone was talking about migration so i think the big message is you know voters are saying to all decisions you visit you said to us give us a mandate to do business at european level and they're saying right we've given you the mandate no do the business and i think that's also interesting times ahead on the well you have to live on climate change you know sit down and have real compromise because you've got the mandate and maybe for the last time this election was called beforehand that i remember we talked to just a few days ago the most important european election in decades what did you learn from the election this weekend that there's no such thing as the one right wing populist m

the european union 3 times i've also listened carefully to those who've been arguing for a 2nd referendum i've made my own view on this clear on many many times i do not believe this is a route that we should take because i think we should be implementing the result of the 1st referendum not asking the british people to vote in a 2nd one but i recognise the genuine and sincere strength of feeling across the house on this important issue the government will therefore include in the withdrawal agreement bill introduction a requirement to vote on whether to hold a 2nd referendum and this must take place before the withdrawal agreement can be rushed outside lawrence lee has more from london. by her own admission this is three's m a's one last chance so she put it in a speech to try to deliver some sort of breck's it's to try to deliver herself a legacy frankly but what she wants is a brick set that can appeal to as many people in this deeply divided parliament and deeply divided country as she can and so to that end she's obviously listen to all the different very loud voices acros

within the european union so there seems to be a split a clear split between the 2 main powers within the european union between paris and berlin so we'll have to wait and see how this turns out but it does appear that the new future of the european parliament after these elections will be one where more compromises have to be made and more time has to be taken over each individual decision both on appointments and of course more importantly on policy david britain's prime minister tourism a is in attendance home last brussels summit as prime minister before her resignation what does she have to say. it was. a mixture of well compared to what we last saw when she very emotionally returned to downing street tears in her eyes saying she she loved her country and she tried to serve in the best way possible a much stronger performance here she arrived as you say for the last time she said that she had regrets course that she couldn't find. any way to fulfill bragg's it and to be the prime minister to make sure the brig's it happened but in the end she realized that of course the time was

european union so now be a fierce race to take over the conservative party leadership a couple of hats are already in the ring she called the job the honor of a lifetime whatever our backgrounds the color of our skin or who we love we stand together to get we have a great future our politics may be under strain but there is so much that is good about this country so much to be proud of so much to be optimistic about. i will shortly leave the job that is being the owner of my life to hold. the 2nd female prime minister but certainly not the last i do so with no ill will but with enormous and enduring gratitude to have had the opportunity to serve the country i love. very emotional theresa may there after a very turbulent time in office let's bring in our correspondents on the story barbara vessel is in london and teri schultz is in brussels good to see you both barbara let's start with you after 3 years let's talk about the timing here what made theresa may announce that she's setting down now. she simply sumi could not withstand the constant onslaught of her own party anymore and what
