may: i want us to leave the european union, i've been working to leave the european union, i have voted consistently in parliament for us to leave. had everybody in parliament voted the same way we would no longer be a member of the european union. you take that to me that are not going to contemplate leaving the european union of your own choice without a withdrawal agreement? p.m. may: i'm making a very simple point, which is that -- i know, and i am answering your question away in which i choose to enter it. -- the way in which i choose to answer it. the point is simple, i stand by the references i made in the past that no deal is a bad deal, i have a good deal. when i first made that reference, i was talking in the abstract at lancaster house, and we now are no longer talking in the abstract, we are talking about a negotiated deal, hard-fought, which has -- which i believe is a good deal for the united kingdom. that is why i say it remains the government's position we will continue to work to leave with a deal. >> so if the house of commons declines to approve a withdrawal agreement

union for that out 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 to. the or 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 so 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 they hurt you yes 1st to turkey the council to you as well 1st of 1st to turkey and then to 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 they can be incarcerated for years now and are not my own hands are beaten up that's not w

union and the the belief in the european union i mean for god's sake look what's going on with briggs that last 30 seconds to paris go ahead. we need to have a change of course i mean the what you were mentioning before is here the problem is not the 5 people. in the world perceive the problem is what we do with our way firstly what the how do we finance it how do we find ways. to make it to the. global world these are the questions we have to us not how we protect ourselves from people from the south because anybody in people's perfectly right i mean the problem is that these guys there were people who made them poor so we collectively made them poor so they are coming they will be called me so the problem is what do we do our social model i know you can if you want back to the 1st time we're going to do something i believe with you that going on as we were going. so far would not solve our problems you can make us much worse than we were ok that's all the time we have gentlemen many thanks to my guests in brussels paris and in edinburgh and thanks to our viewers for watching us here

the secretary of state and the european union? prime minister may: we'll have a different arrangement for the negotiations. i think most likely it would be led by the secretary of state. if i can can just explain obviously the next stage of negotiations, phase two of negotiations, includes wide range of issues. of course it would be necessary to be able to draw cross expertise from a cross government on all matters that were involved. for example, one element that will be security aspects. obviously making sure that those who are expert, part of those negotiations will be important. >> what would be your role or role of your successor if that's what happens in the negotiations? how would that be habbled? prime minister may: the secretary of state would operate according to policies set by the government. there would be not just a role for that individual and the rolls, but roll for the cabinet. >> is the government ready for negotiations? i ask because the discriminate -- secretary of state announced mon-b a month ago the governme

union, i've been working for us to leave the european union. i have voted consistently in parliament to leave the european union. everybody in parliament voted the same way, we would no longer be a member of the european union . >> i take that to mean that you're not going to contemplate leaving the european union without a withdrawal agreement. >> i'm making a very simple point which is, i know. i'm answering yourquestion the way in which i choose to answer it . the point is very simple. i stand by the resolutions i've made in the past of not leaving with a bad deal but i happen to believe we can leave with a good deal. i should have made that reference, i was talking in the abstract, we now are no longer talking in abstracts, we're talking against the background of a negotiated deal hard-fought which i believe is the right to have a good deal for the united kingdom. >> .. i do not believe we should remain in the european union and deathly. i believe that's what i want to see the house of commons -- we will only stay if article 50 is revoked.

will it be the european union? we would have a different arrangement for the negotiation most likely it would be led by the secretary of state. could just explain, the next stage of negotiations include the wide range of issues, and it would be necessary to be able to draw cross expertise for cross government on all matters, one element would go to the security aspects. making sure that those who are expert and well-versed are part of the negotiations. >> what would be your role or the role of your successor in the negotiations? how would that be handled with the secretary of state? >> the secretary of state would operate according to policy set by the government. a there would be not just role for that individual and the prime minister, but a role for the cabinet. >> is the government ready for negotiations? the secretary of state and announced a month ago the government was planning to set up an expert advisory group in trade and customs. has that group been established? >> there are various pieces of work being

on the part of the european union. member states have not been able to reach a consensus and really as as at these as it has been mentioned that the current crisis in libya only makes these decisions merge and i would like to thank all our guests lee we are out of time charlie actually saw and night hot thank you very much and thank you too for chick you can see the program again anytime by visiting our website al-jazeera dot com and for further discussion go to our facebook page that's facebook dot com forward slash a.j. inside story and you can also join the conversation on twitter handle is at a.j. inside story for me imran khan and the whole team head like that i . when your fiancee lives behind bars. the engagement also becomes a life sentence. zero world hears from three palestinian women whose lives have been dictated by their relationships with men in prison. wedding on hold on al-jazeera. it's a daunting climb to one of the holiest sites in bhutan tiger's mess hall astri seems to defy gravity every few cities

want to 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 s

population who felt the burden of the european union without feeling the advantages of. the european parliament consists of 751 amy pease representing more than 500000000 people from 28 countries the big question is how many of them will give their backing to the new alliance of far right european leaders. let's now introduce our guests they are finance expert that the most senior lecturer in european politics at the university of surrey and men and director of the u.k. in a changing europe initiative and a former special advisor to the house of lords e.u. committee and joining us from milan stefan of edge in an italian journalist who focuses on economics and foreign affairs and is also co-author of the black book of the leg gentlemen welcome all of you to inside story the finest expects of us if i can start with you were just seeing this report about that rally in milan led by matt hale vini how likely do you think it is that a lot of these far right stroke populous parties across europe will be able to form a functioning coalition a functioning bloc within the european

i have been trying to leave the european union. i am looking forward to voting a fourth time to leave the european union in a withdrawal agreement bill. sadly, opposition members and some of my collea g u es opposition members and some of my colleagues have not voted alongside me in that way. but how we do that, how we do that is a matter for this house, because the deal has to be ratified by this house. government and this house have to determine what the objectives for the next stage of negotiations are going to be. i have been clear those negotiations will be taken forward by somebody else leading this government. what i am also clear about, you cannot get onto the second stage of negotiations until you get over the first stage. that is what the bill is about. the prime minister in her statement referred rightly to the need to avoid the risks that are inherent in the brexit process. but doesn't she realise that her latest proposal actually hard—wire those risks into the process themselves? is the right honourable gentleman tal

customs agreement with the european union. i'm committed to those objectives and we negotiated a good deal to deliver on those to deliver it. >> this government say they are committed to tackling climate change yet too often the evidence suggests otherwise. take the examples of support, and their refusal to help award-winning tidal energy specialists, and innovations. and 99.4% of uk exports in the energy sector. and fossil fuel projects. if this government is serious about addressing the climate emergency, will they prove it by investing in the future, not the past? >> we are investing in the future and not the past which is why we are encouraging issues like electric vehicles, battery technology taking place in the uk. he talks about interest and support in what we need to do on climate change, look at our record. our renewable energy has quadrupled since 2010. annual support renewables over $10 billion by 2021. 99% of solar power deployed in the uk has been deployed under the conservatives in government. we have been decolo

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 up. thank you chris which agency they questioned about hungary's feeder's did you have that with mr. or are you going to talk with him because without him. l

of course the european union has something to lose as well but a lot less than the u.k. so in terms of the potential successors to theresa may out of brussels this is likely to maintain a diplomatic silence on this but did you think brussels is likely to have a preferred candidate it all may be one that they'd rather avoid in fact while i'm sure that you commission would have somebody they prefer if you gave them a list you know they could point to a name and say we would like that person better than the other one and most likely that person they would point to would not be board johnson because boris johnson is a very well known entity here and it's never gone to well he's been here in political function but he also was here as a journalist in the past and was known for his reporting on the you commission back then and of course the position he's taking at the moment saying that we will leave the european union at the end of october which is the current deadline for brags that no matter what if we have a new agreement or not so he doesn't seem to be afraid of our bags a

i think as a result of this will be more centralization in the european union now decentralization going in there with this was one of the 1st warnings after a from muswell that there were this is incentives for both brussels berlin that would put at the forefront or to make sure that this would not be successful. because there's a special evil or anything but simply because if brics it was. wildly successful others would follow so. they want this to be just a one off and not precedent yeah obviously or orbis case would of course be if they never left at all decided to do this 2nd referendum and for a while now it seems like this is what britain has been moving towards this if you took no deal off the table and told that you either will take any deal or give us or so obviously in such a situation you've got to have. you're going to have a problem in the political system and i think it's in this vacuum. people like for us to come up with this brics a party which works on the very quickly is not really fit to govern it they don't even have a manifesto they just had a catch in there and reg

union on october 31st that is halloween and they break today that the european union sort of gave out during the last extension and saying this is it folks that was another half year nothing has happened so far so boris johnson has already sort of made clear that deal or no deal britain will leave and that of course increases the chances for no deal because nothing has changed here was regard to bracks it he he will have if it's johnson or somebody else the successor after reason maybe year she will have this same parliamentary majority s. he will have to face the same problems getting a deal through parliament however legal experts now say it might not be binding this conclusion by parliament that they don't want to heartbreaks it so far as knowns johnson and others know that very well the breaks that hardliners might very well head for it but the country remains divided and of course the tory party remains deeply divided the moderate forces in within the tories they now see that their stock is falling and so johnson or somebody else might yet to split the tory party there will be tr

i've been trying to leave the european union. i am looking forward to voting a fourth time to leave the european union. the withdrawal agreement bill sally opposition members and some of my colleagues have not voted alongside me in that way, but how we do that, how we do that is a matter for this house. because the deal has to be ratified by this house, and government and this house have to determine what the objective for the next date of negotiations are going to be. i have been clear that those negotiations will be taken had four by somebody else leading this government. not what i'm also clear about, you can't get onto the second stage negotiations until you get over the first states. that's what the bill is about. >> mr. speaker, the prime minister statement referred rightly to the need to avoid the risks that are inherent in the brexit process. doesn't she realized her latest proposals actually hardwire hard those risks into the process themselves? >> if the right honorable gentleman is talking on the issues which are signi

they are blaming politicians and the european union, thatis politicians and the european union, that is not the fault of the european union, it is the fault of politicians at westminster. i do not disrespect the reason why people voted leave. you have touched on this, but touching on it again, tommy has got in touch to say... that is not the case. i will give you an example. the other saturday i was in portree which is the main village and sky. a young spanish lady is going to veteran a college and wants to live and work in scotland. i did the rules that the uk wish to impose, you would have to earn a salary of 30,000. there are many skilled jobs in scotland that do not own a salary of 30,000, so this is not about cheap labour, this is about access to labour to people who want to come and contribute to our society, make a positive contribution. the analysis is that emigrants do, can drive down wages. we have a problem and that is that we have not had sufficient investment in our economy. we have a problem with low productivity. we need to create the circumstances where we increase in

union for the european parliament to actually regulate. nationwide solutions when it comes to the climate climate change and we'll also see that this is one of the topics which just you move the younger part of the population and these younger parts are still hopeful so i believe as the big democratic parties don't want to lose. their constituencies when it comes to when it comes to young voters they really focus on on one hand working together and on the other hand finding answers for for this problems which really concern the younger population. derek yes no i agree i think in the media this often i don't like to. be critical of my own trade but there's often an obsession with right wing parties or far right parties we often call them right when we win mean far right you know or bonded very well but you have to try and find somebody to work with in the european parliament nobody you know our president as far as i know nobody has the lighter to work with and obviously did very well in italy but otherwise i mean in germany we've all been o

the government wants to align with the european union on its to keep dry. about the same time, was to pursue trade deals which would undermine this process. it's not compatible. the technology they need to continue to pursue that plan simply doesn't exist. it's already been ruled but that eq is the legal and practical and an invitation to fraud. and the government has failed to provide any economic analysis to show this would makeno it better off. why would the house support such a chaotic and desperate approach works he set out a sensible compromise plan, over a year ago. including a comprehensive and permanent customs unions with the eu that gives us a safer it would allow us to strike trade deals as part of the park worlds biggest trading block. while maintaining higher standards. it's credible and achievable. ohe best way to protect industry, manufacturing jobs, something this government indifferent to thes crisis as it shows today. the government must be prepared to step in and take a public stage to say thousands of jobs are there. foundation industry

smaller countries in the european union and. that's the famous heroes square we meet viktor noise about. his father is german and his mother is hungary and but he doesn't feel like a european. because all things get. this do you support a conservative state a nation state. and i'm opposed to the european union or do you want. victor is active in the right wing conservative pheidias party of prime minister viktor all band he's also involved in the election campaigns outside parliament he plans a video for huge election rally held last year. a god it's like the whole country came together on this one day when we felt strength and peace. we felt we were one country. to material motional absolutely. i want to. comment on the bounce nationalist populist rhetoric is popular with many young people all dance new electro laws instituted in 2012 helped secure a 2 thirds majority in last year's parliamentary election despite winning just under 50 percent of the followed fetus also has enormous influence over the hunky area media and the co

union are not mutually exclusive the hope is nationalism is the enemy of the european project and in the final days before the election we need to make that clear my friend says men in let's put out by come up to me before i. remember him saying in essence that europeans can be can be nationalists could be perpetual to make about their own country but they can also be internationalists and they can be patriotic about your of what they got to be patriotic about well what had just heard the german chancellor say is that you oppose built on come on values and those 5 years are telegrams and being open minded and cooperating with one another and the past i would be taken if nationalist parties would gain more seats in the european parliament would be that of isolationism not only from country to country but also from europe towards to wealth and that is something that represents a great adventure for the common values that are does appear out. also very good good the vast majority of course according to the figures the vast majority of european voters european citizens believe the system

well starting on thursday voters across the european union will elect members of the european parliament they'll have to the power to approve e.u. new laws the e.u. budget and choose the president of the european commission 751 seats are up for grabs with each of the $28.00 e.u. countries getting a number of seats proportional to their population the u.k. is still taking part because it's briggs it plans of course not been passed the 2 major blocs in parliaments are the right leaning the p.p. and the center left s n d but the dominance of these coalitions could be eroded by the rise of europe's populists bridget lafon is the director of the global governance program at the european university institute she joins us by skype now from florence to talk more about this thanks very much for being with us so we've seen this we've seen this wave of populist nationalist movements sweeping across europe over the last few years in in the individual european governments but do you expect that to be reflected in this european parliament as these elections begin. well we should remember that the anti

say this isn't what we wanted to or we want to remain in the european union so when those parts of the population are becoming more and more angry and at the same time not you ferrante very skillful politician and his party has been a runaway success but he. needs to be said very clearly that he cannot government if the 2 main parties collapse the brics it party does not have the administrative and technocratic background that is needed in a country like britain to take over the government of britain nor do any of the other opposition parties that we hear about not even the liberal democrats who are old and well established party so in a situation where the country is becoming more and more angry on both sides where the government that exists at the moment is a divine deed and discredited with a prime minister who both won't go and won't take the process will wait where the labor party is also becoming discredited and is now deeply divided it is looking extraordinary difficult to see who can take this thing forward and actually provide groups that with and fictive government that is an

future lies ahead for the european union all the results.

european union. were talking about a transition period that enables people to be able have a smooth and orderly exit at the point at which we leave, that gives businesses an absolute certainty about the basis on which they will be operating at that point in time and gives them the time to prepare for the future relationship that would obviously be negotiated in that period.|j relationship that would obviously be negotiated in that period. i don't agree. we know! sir patrick. the european statutory insolence committee has recommended on 61 occasions that the government reverse its original proposals to go from a negative seeded to an affirmative procedure. the gonnet have accepted all of them and i'm grateful for that corporation i think it shows that when a committee of the house has said that it wants something to be changed, the government has been willing to change it. in your view now, as far as you are concerned following the cooper— letwin bill, is it your view that it cooper— letwin bill,

a possible temporary customs union with the future uk government could change and the european union have dismissed. i trade arrangement which the former uk representative to the eu has described as the definition of insanity. mr. speaker, none of what the prime minister announced yesterday was discussed with the devolved government. this really goes to the heart of the problem. in december 2016 the scottish government published a compromise position. this was projected without discussion. scotland's voice has been ignored time and time again. brexit has -- from the scottish parliament. that is no respect for the devolved administration by this government. westminster has ignored scotland. mr. speaker, this is a tory mess. look around, there is no support for the prime minister is deal. prime minister, this deal faces even a bigger defeat the last one. tomorrow, communities will make their voice heard, and our democratic european relation. mr. speaker, a vote for the scottish national party is a vote to stop brexit. a vote to stop this economic matters, about to respect scotland's de

after island joined the european union in the early 1970 s. the situation began to improve by the mid 1990 s. the country had earned the nickname of celtic tiger victors write history the saying goes but in ireland they say it's the losers who sing their songs. so there's always being in the corner of aspect to folk music where some corner of like rebellious or on the author of terry a nature i suppose that would be an element that we are picking up on. the financial crisis of 2008 island very hard causing the property market to collapse and plunging the country into recession many banks and financial institutions faced bankruptcy so ireland received a bailout from the eurozone now its economy is on the rise again. thanks to questionable tax incentives ranks it has reopened old wounds a lot of things are coming out in the open at the moment and one of them is like the rest of your greedy guess the see the kind of like that we've had to deal with for the last a 100 years that the hands of the british mean i think if we were and if we didn't hav

resorting to any pieces of the local market some of which have been banned by the european union. as a result the e.u. rejects their produce. so unless you start export into europe you have to cope right with the european standards so that you have to be sure that the president you use and a particularly residues which really rich rich charming taining on the crop itself or the product itself has to comply with the with the very strict standards. the government sees that ban posts a day legally imported they're often sold in the black market it even gets worse when from us cannot tell them apart from the generally such a fight besides well the reaches no want to toughen the laws to cop this and ensure the dealers only sale to pharmacy approved based sites that meet standards at a reasonable price they also want to target exporters who deliberately abuse time that's right from the farm in uganda to the markets in europe the regulatory system is weak and we are getting. stuck want us shut out to strengthen their will strengthen in the region be a good regime now after that we are wo

the capacity to legislate in the european union is divided across different institutions. deal with greg's point about the perceptions of european citizens. he is right. most think that the european parliament is not a very important institution, although it is. it takes a lot of very important decisions every day. the parties only talk about national politics, the european dimension of this is forgotten. this brings me back to something you mentioned before. president macron has tried to talk about a narrative for europe — is it working? it worked for him, many of us would have seen him wrap himself ina european flag. it succeeded. right now his approval ratings are very low. so were margaret thatcher's at midpoint in the electoral cycle but then she bounced back. he is redefining what it means to be a european leader. especially after angela merkel is gone. especially if he winds up running against someone on the far right like he did previously. if that is the case, then the future of france becomes increasingly intertwined with the eu. but his flirtation with groups

union market because the minister of those to us that they can do anything but not the european union market a lot of the food that gets exported also just starts going off because it's not refrigerated while being transported in trucks across uganda why couldn't something being down there like upgrades by by produce and refrigerated transportation. according to expose of the suspicion we spoke to we interviewed this gentleman is the jefferson and he told us some of the. efficiency and crew plus ones do not meet the standards in hundley some trucks are reportedly being flown within one function or refrigeration. hunting perishable goods and goods that are going to fight for markets in the so he say that they're going to ensure that no to even a simple exporter can be allowed to take anything out of the. country just a quick yes or no do you reckon ugandan exporters are going to get their act together in time i think they'll be like they would do this because the many from has been they don't. they have no other charges they have to keep the markets so i'm very confident that they will

thing that germany runs the european union which is kind of true let's be honest and them so that is obviously a position they don't really like to see and i well i play with that obviously controversial point by the way i might have to ask you for some facts to back one up i want to read fake news are you happy that you're back in germany now i mean because you used to be living primarily in the u.k. but now you're kind of going back and forth is that because. it it's not because of that i just used to be in britain only and then i got an offer to work in germany and do standup in my own language and then i started to do it and it worked out ok and now i kind of commute between then and london fashion brand ready. so to know joining us here in the thank you. indonesia's president we don't know has warns that strong action will be taken against rioters in the capital jakarta he was speaking after demonstrators protested the results of last month's presidential election at least 6 people were killed in clashes with security forces violence broke out after authorities confirmed the pre

union do now have the mentum with them and this is going to complicate the scene within the european parliament now we've seen the erosion of the center left of center right the traditional jew up lee who held the stability of the european union's parliament together they have they have lost they've got they've got a a leech of support from them so it's going to be more complicated now as far as the european parliament is concerned the groupings will be organize of the next few days and weeks there will be a new alliances and i think getting through policies and getting through any legislation will be more difficult now because it's not simply going to be a case of it being ordered by paris or berlin it's going to have to be spread across the capitals much more efficiently than it was before says the end if you like of the dominance of the traditional axis within the european union the parliament and every decision that's made now every piece of legislation that's taken is going to require long and complex negotiations so you could say that's a victory for democracy at least but it d
