unpopular in the uk, and we have theresa may as a prime minister who's going to be stepping down as leader of the conservative party in the next couple of days. she is a lame duck in terms of policy discussions. it's a state visit, and there's lots of pageantry coming with that. the larger fundamentals of the importance of the relationship. >> how would you gauge the nature of the relationship as of today? >> i think you can look at relationships terms of relations between countries and leaders. they're one of our closest allies, there are a number of policy differences between our countries in terms of politics and relations between leaders it is quite difficult. we have seen president trump on a number of occasions undermine prime minister theresa may, he has made humiliating comments about her, interfering this domestic politics and lots of differences between iran and china. >> when it comes to the nature of discussions, how pointed do they get on these types of visits. >> in terms of discussions with the queen, it's going to be diplomatic niceties. one of the things that has been cons

johnson to become uk prime minister, says he believes he can bring back a brexit dealfrom brussels. he made a dig at his rival saying the next prime minister should be trustworthy, otherwise the uk risks a general election and no brexit. now on bbc news it's hardtalk. shaun ley speaks to brexit party chairman, richard tice. hello and welcome to hardtalk. i'm shaun ley. brexit — notjust an event, now a whole political movement. at the end of may with its leader, nigel farage, at the helm, the brexit party swept the board in the european parliament elections, humiliating the uk's governing conservative party. five years ago, the same story — triumph for nigel farage, albeit leading a party with a different name. richard tice back then was a conservative. now he's chairman of mr farage's party and one of its european meps. with many experts predicting a costly, bitter departure from the european union, is the triumph of the brexit party a humiliation for the united kingdom and its politics? richard tice, welcome to hardtalk. thank you very much, great to be here. the elections are out

business leaders on the second day of his state visit to the uk. download cancelled — apple scraps its itunes music service after 18 years. and the fear factor remains on financial markets. but performance in asia but the big losers were the so—called faang stocks. they lost a bit of ground on wall street, we will explain. so after all the pomp and ceremony of yesterday, donald trump gets down to business on day two of his state visit to the uk. in a few hours, he will address uk business leaders — with talks on a possible post brexit trade deal, very much on the agenda. total trade between the us and uk was worth more than $262 billion in 2018, making the united kingdom america's fifth—biggest export market for goods. the top us exports to the uk last year were aircraft, precious metals and machinery. agriculture made up only a tiny proportion of exports to the uk, with a value ofjust $2 billion. washington wants to boost that figure after brexit, saying eu regulations "unfairly ban things" like chlorinated chicken and hormone—treated beef. but even more contentious is the que

of your screen with those grand flags for the uk and the u.s., foreign commonwealth office rough equivalent of the state department here in the u.s. it's going to be quite a moment here. a special relationship between the two countries and i think what you can describe as a special relationship between the british prime minister and american president. theresa may was the first foreign leader to come visit washington after trump's victory. this is actually his second visit toit uk, but first official state visit with all the pomp and circumstance sense he was president and only the third u.s. president to get such a greeting in the uk. our nic robertson is outside number 10 downing street. nick, we expected this joint news conference to start several minutes ago. are there still discussions under way or just the normal delay that often happens with official events on a trip like this? >> reporter: it seems to be, jim, just a delay that you normally get with dig events like this. we've seen a lot of people coming out of number 10 already, steve mnuchin, secretary of state mike pom

. some. so we see this push to stop the uk from crashing out of the eu. that is really impacting the value of the sterling, isn't it. it has a picture of irisjohnson, sterling, isn't it. it has a picture of iris johnson, one sterling, isn't it. it has a picture of irisjohnson, one of the leaders in the race to become the new prime minister, he is saying we will leave no matter what on october 31, this isa no matter what on october 31, this is a worry for some. this is the battleground for this, the tory party election and of course the election to be the new prime minister is going to be what the candidates do if there is a no deal, do they look for an extension to article 50, another extension to article 50, another extension to article 50, another extension to article 50, or do they look to leave the eu with no deal. that is the big thing. but this cross—party group, including jeremy corbyn and senior tory figures looking to make it a law before we get to any of this voting around the new prime minister to say if there is no deal, then the uk can't leave the eu without that. so b

official state visit and he's expected to put on more pressure on the uk to freeze out chinese telecoms giant huawei. talking tough over trade — china accuses the us of intimidation as it steps up its retaliation against washington. for that reason alone, markets are nervous as they start a brand—new trading week in the month ofjune. you can see how things ended in the us on friday, and right now it is all about declines in asia. in a few hours‘ time, us president donald trump will land in the uk for an official state visit. but it is not without controversy. at a meeting with uk prime minister theresa may, the president will warn britain that security cooperation could be hurt if britain allows china's huawei a role in building parts of the sg network, the next generation of cellular technology. huawei is the world's largest telecommunications equipment maker, and in 2018, it got almost half of its $100 billion annual revenue from overseas markets. last week, the uk's first 56 mobile phone network started operations on a limited scale in some parts of the country. it uses a subst

party, change uk, to sit as independents after the party failed to win any seats in the european elections. hello and welcome. president trump has spent the day with theresa may on the second day of his state visit to the uk. in a news conference with the prime minister, today he said the prime minister, today he said the us and the uk have the greatest alliance of the world has ever known. this afternoon, president trump stated his belief that brexit would be good for the country, and he said the prime minister deserved a lot of credit. he promised a phenomenal trade deal after the uk leaves the european union, and he said that everything was on the table as part of any deal between the countries, and that included the nhs. he said that he had turned down a meeting forjeremy corbyn, request he had from jeremy corbyn command he described him as somewhat of a negative force, he wanted to speak about nato, he said those allies must contribute more to the transatlantic alliance, and in response, the prime minister said that two countries now have a great relationship on which to bui

to deliver brexit by the end of october, declaring that the political landscape both in the uk and the eu has changed. but mrjohnson admitted he would need eu co—operation to prevent both a hard border in ireland and tariffs on british business if there were no deal with the eu. asked about the widely reported incident in the early hours of friday morning at the flat he shares with his partner, borisjohnson said it was simply not fair to talk about his family and loved ones. here is laura kuenssberg's exclusive interview with mrjohnson in full. borisjohnson, what boris johnson, what would you borisjohnson, what would you do on day one in number ten, to make sure we leave the eu at halloween? i would make sure we have a plan that will convince our european friends and partners that we are absolutely serious about coming out. and the key things that you've got to do are to take the bits of the current withdrawal agreement which is dead, take the bits that are serviceable, and get them done. and that is number one, eu citizens, 3.2 million. they to be protected. you may remember, th

champion, charged of coordinating the response to corruption and implementation uk anti-corruption strategy. he's in charge of leading the uk's push to strengthen international response to corruption, which is what he's doing here and what he'll be doing in canada right after this. he's in charge of engaging with external stakeholders. that would be us. please, take us away. >> sorry, i hate to interrupt. i think it's just for c-span, we have to speak into the mic. can you turn it on and maybe stand up. would that work? >> does that work? big enough sound on that. keep talking and see. is that enough? you sure. i can't present a moving target because i have to stand here. beyond that we're set. firstly, thank you very much for inviting me here this morning paul put it beautifully in his introduction right now, we share a common threat and i'm here because i believe we can share a common response to that threat if we get our acts together and work together in yet another example of one of the oldest alliances on the planet, trying to make us work together. the reason why we share th

cities around the uk. good morning from downing street, where, after all the pomp and ceremony of yesterday, president trump gets down to the business end of his three day state visit. after a glittering state banquet at buckingham palace last night, where the president praised the "eternal friendship" between the uk and us, he'll come here to meet theresa may and her senior ministers. lets ta ke lets take a look at what we can expect today. first though, the president and prime minister will co—host a breakfast meeting this morning at stjames‘ palace — with senior business leaders from both the us and the uk. president trump and the first lady will then travel to downing street, where they will have lunch with the prime minister before those talks begin. and this evening, president and mrs trump will host a return dinner at winfield house — where the prince of wales and the duchess of cornwall will attend on behalf of the queen. well, in around two hours‘ time, mr trump will meet theresa may, to discuss a range of issues, including some they don't see eye to eye on, as

to the saudis. the uk has supplied them with over four and a half billion pounds worth of deadly weapons. uk weapons which have been used in indiscriminate attacks on civilians in which over 200,000 people have been killed. and hundreds of thousands more stand on the brink of famine, starvation, and of death from wholly preventable diseases. surely, mr speaker, the court of appealjudgement should be a wake—up call to the prime minister and the government, so instead of appealing the judgement, why not accept the judgement and stop arm sales to saudi arabia now and bring about peace in the yemen and save those lives? theresa may said she was trying to bring about peace. the right honourable gentleman is talking about the relations we have with saudi arabia. that is a relationship that has saved lives of british citizens in the past. but let's just look at some of the relationships the right honourable gentleman supports. when people were killed in salisbury, his sympathies were with russia. when terrorists were killing our people, his sympathies were with the ira. and in the rec

. those talks resuming on friday will be closely watched by global markets. we start here in the uk, where a new period of huge uncertainty is about to begin for businesses, both inside and outside britain, over the future of brexit. today prime minister theresa may will step down as leader of the conservative party. she will remain acting prime minster until a new leader is chosen. but who replaces her will decide the shape of britain's departure from the eu at the end of october, less than five months away. at the moment there's a crowded field of 11 candidates, but that number will be whittled down to two by tory members of parliament in the coming week. then it's up to the party membership to chose one of the two. all have declared they want the uk to leave the european union, but they differ on the big question: how? try to revive the deal negotiated by theresa may. try to get a new deal. delay brexit past the 31st october deadline to buy more time. or leave without a deal so called "hard brexit". financial institutions and business groups have warned of the economic damage of

climate scientists say that is just not enough. this month, the uk became the very first major economy, really, to make a legal commitment to carbon neutrality by 2050. here is one of the big problems — the european reliance on coal. germany gets 40% of its electricity from coal but plans close all 84 coal—fired power stations over the next 20 years. poland, the proportion is much bigger, of its electricity comes from coal. it is one of the countries refusing to sign up to the 2050 target. another is the czech republic. a czech mep and candidate for the top eu job spoke to the bbc‘s ross atkins to explain why. if you make a political declaration it is the easiest way to do. the difficult thing is to fulfil that. i can only remind all that in 11 countries of central and eastern europe ‘s, the post communist country, no green mep was elected to the parliament. there is a little bit of a different view between western europe and eastern europe. does that mean that people in those countries do not care about climate change? they care but they are a frayed that if it done in an unsu

may remember. i said their rights should be enshrined in an unconditional way in uk law, number one. number two, there's other things that you should do to make progress with the bits of the withdrawal agreement that we have. i think the money is more difficult. i think the £39 billion is at the upper end of the eu's expectations, but there is. it's a considerable sum. i think there should be a bit of creative ambiguity about when and how that gets paid over. the important thing is that there should be an agreement that the solution of the border questions, the irish border, the northern irish border questions, and all the facilitations we need to produce to get that done, all those issues need to be tackled on the other side of 31 october, during what's called the implementation period. but the implementation period as it stands is part of the withdrawal agreement, and you said you wouldn't sign up to the withdrawal agreement, and it's dead. so those two things can't both be true. no, because you're going to need some kind of agreement, and that's certainly what i'm aiming for, in
