tuition fees, because the dup can. it's interesting that the dup can exert power in both directions. the thing is, this vote is not binding on the government, but it worked, because the government basically climbed down and isn't going to force their mps through the voting lorry. it's worked in the sense that it has showed the vulnerability of the government, but it hasn't changed the policy as such. it's emblematic of how vulnerable the government is in parliament, and the efforts that politicians have made to hide behind other non—elected bodies like the independent pay review. they amount to nothing when the policy is crumbling before our very eyes because of the arithmetic. front page of the metro. this is a weird story. george school in lockdown as an intruder is arrested. a woman has been arrested in relation to being in prince george's school when she should not have been there. one wonders what the royal couple must be thinking this evening. although the school they've chosen for their son is a very exclusive

mr brokenshire says a deal between the dup and sinn fein remains ”achieveable” but that pressures on public services are becoming evident. earlier today i spoke to all of the main political parties here in northern ireland. i have continued to urge them to find a way forward to restore an executive. devolved government in northern ireland is in the best interest of everyone. the key policy and budgetary decisions need to be taken by locally elected and locally accountable politicians. all party leaders have made clear that they agree that there is a need for an executive to be formed to make key decisions for the benefits of all of the people of northern ireland. now is the time to give effect to this desire. through political leadership on all sides. to better understanding the issues from others' perspectives, and to see where the space for resolution exists. this means direct and honest dialogue between the parties to reach resolutions without a running commentary. for this reason, i am keen the parties are given a structured space within which to engage with one another and addre

the dup are no fans of the cap. and finally, the prime ministerfelt that under george osborne, the government failed to show enough appreciation of servants of the public realm. it's great news that after seven very difficult years, recovering from labour's financial crisis, we are now in a position to end the 1% public sector pay cap, which is great for public sector workers. it is great remembering that although the cap is set at 1%, the vast majority of public sector workers have been getting more than that. in the nhs, nurses have averaged 3% as they progress through the pay scales. no doubt the government hoped that today's announcement would lead to a less hostile start of the conference season at the tuc in brighton. public sector workers had other ideas. ijoy that 18, so ijoin to become a firefighter, something i always wanted to do, so money wasn't necessarily the issue. now, i literally lived month—to—month, and so do my colleagues. ijoined at 18. we are feeling the pinch and we are in a situation wher

have blocked it, and also the dup have blocked it, and also theissue the dup have blocked it, and also the issue of the irish language act and that has really caught the headlines. and caused the real problem between sinn fein and the dup. make it a bit more bitter. there have been harsh words which the secretary of state for northern ireland acknowledged, basically sinn fein said there has to be an irish language act which would give the irish language official status before they go back into government with the dup, but the dup don't seem prepared to do that at this stage, so that is what we have, a stand—off. james brokenshire is caught in the middle, having to find a way forward, trying to get the parties round the table, but at the moment it is not looking good, frankly. even though he doesn't want to talk about this idea of direct rule, and wanted to talk about direct dialogue between the parties, you get the sense if things don't happen in the next couple of months westminster will have two step in. you are always worth waiting for, chris, thanks for joining you are always wor

sinn fein says the dup has not addressed the cause of stormont‘s collapse. following the devastation of storm harvey, president trump is expected ask congress for nearly $6 billion in federal aid to help with the recovery effort. it is reported wayne rooney has been arrested on suspicion of drink—driving. the bbc understands the incident took place in cheshire. a man who attempted to rob premier league striker andy carroll is found guilty. jack o'brien had denied attempting to rob the 28—year—old as he waited at traffic lights in north—east london, in november last year. staying with this story, we have sentencing in that case. at 22—year—old man found guilty at basildon crown court of attempting to rob the premier league striker andy carroll of his wristwatch which was worth £22,000. 22—year—old jack o'brien was sentenced notjust for that offence but also for a string of burglaries and robberies. given five years and three months for the burglaries, using motorbikes, another concurrent 18 months. six yea rs another concurrent 18 months. six

the bombardier factory in belfast is ina dup, the bombardier factory in belfast is in a dup, democratic unionist party, and theresa may relies on the dup, the ten mps of them, for her slender parliamentary majority so she will be keen, if it matters to the dup, it matters to the conservative prime minister. she raised it with donald trump we know the business secretary from the uk has been visiting boeing. usually they do it behind closed doors, but they know a lot of people are watching, how hard the uk government is fighting for northern irish jobs, government is fighting for northern irishjobs, but government is fighting for northern irish jobs, but these are not straightforward disputes. for example, boeing says that it employs 16500 people in its supply chain in the uk. so it is not a street shoot—out between us and northern ireland jobs on one side and us jobs on the other. these are complicated disputes and thenned to last a long time. they do. we know only too well. simonjack time. they do. we know only too well. simon jack in time. they do. we know only too well. simonjack in

the dup and sinn fein have so far failed to to reach an agreement. our clear and resolute focus is to re—establish the government at stormont. together with the irish government, we are continuing to support the party's effort to find resolution and reform the executive. however, time is short and i urge the parties to continue to work to reach an agreement. the prime minister has been in touch with the party leaders in northern ireland in recent hours and as she has heard from our party leader, a commitment to restoring devolution immediately with no red lines of pre—conditions, to get on the job of dealing with health education, jobs and investment in northern ireland. can the secretary of state indicate whether sinn fein continue to adhere to the these matters are not as important as seeking partisan political man to be fulfilled and whether any progress was made on that front? i welcome the statement that the honourable gentleman has made on behalf of his party and indeed the comments that arlene foster has made about seeing their desire to g

it is still illegal, that has been blocked by the dup in the past. they have given every indication they may well block it again in the future. there are questions about what sinn fein calls right. there is also the relationship between the parties. ultimately, power—sharing relies on two parties being able to do business together, being able to sit in government together and having a common vision. you look at the dup and sinn fein and even from normal politics point of view, if i can call it that, if we look at right wing and left wing, the dup are a centre—right party and sinn fein would regard themselves as the left—wing party. there are big differences over what they view as being a whole range of matters. there is the added convocation that the dup also propping up conservatives at westminster. that is something sinn fein are concerned about and you get these really odd, mickley issues throughout all of this as they tried to get this back up this as they tried to get this back up and running again. it is not going to be easy. i will talk

especially with the involvement with the dup. they have some reliance on those voters. but 16,500 people work in the supply chain for boeing in the uk. if it isjobs you are worried about —— worrying about, just remember how many we have in the uk. add to that, the canadian government is threatening to cancel an orderfor government is threatening to cancel an order for military aircraft from boeing. these things get complicated. when you are picking sides in a spat like this, picking your site isn't straightforward. is there a sense that enough is being done to protect those jobs is there a sense that enough is being done to protect thosejobs in northern ireland, are people feeling nervous? it's interesting. because the uk government relies on the dup here it has been very active in trying to resolve this dispute. the prime minister raised the issue with donald trump when she saw him last week at the un general assembly. the business minister, like clark, has made a couple of trips to boeing. —— greg clark. normally he does this work behind closed doors. but the

theresa may needs to keep the dup on side. they've already put pressure on her to raise theissue already put pressure on her to raise the issue with donald trump so she's already discussed this issue before this decision was made with donald trump. clearly that hasn't had much impact on the decision today. we have heard already from themselveses who're saying she needs to stand up to donald trump's protectionist bullying as they call it. it has implications for post—brexit trade because theresa may and the government have put emphasis on get ago trade deal with the us done after brexit. they started laying the ground work for that already. we have heard from the open britain group, the pro—eu open britain group who're saying this shows we cannot rely on trade with the usa after brexit because it shows that they are prepared to take decisions that go directly against britain's interests. so i think a lot of political problems raised for theresa may by this. thank you very much. the prime minister has welcomed saudi arabia's

to an extent, james brokenshire is caught in the middle of a dispute between the dup and sinn fein. he spoke today about windows of opportunities. there are two windows, firstly to get power negotiations back up and running. we expect that in the next couple of weeks. you get the impression he is try to sort the party to see if there is a potential compromise, especially on the issue of official status of the irish language. sinn fein basically wants an irish language act, but dup activists say they do not want that at this time. it's they do not want that at this time. it‘s proving to be a difficult crunch issue. secondly, at what point does it become unsustainable here? working without a government. he gave an indication it would be october, set in the autumn time, where he may have to step in and make a budget or even have a return of direct rule ministers whether uk government ministers would effectively have to run northern ireland. that is something he said he does not want but when you listen carefully, it is also something that may need to happen if the parties cannot agre

the government found money to give to the dup for example. whereas that money could have been diverted to provide nurses with a decent living wage. for 50 years he has been the voice of football. but nowjohn motson has decided to hang up his microphone and sheepskin coat. ‘motty‘ — as he's famously known — has covered ten world cups, 200 england games and 29 fa cup finals. his final bbc commentary will be for the fa cup final in may. our sport's editor dan roan went to meet him. and there it is! the crazy gang have beaten the culture club. here is gascoigne. .. brilliant! yes! oh, yes! goal! platini for france! it's dramatic, it's delightful, it's denmark! they are the european champions. what was, for you, the secret, the keys, to be able to call those moments in time so quickly? it's like saying to your postman, how do you prepare the letters? you know, people don't have do know that, do they? and people didn't need to know that i was spending two days in this office banging myself over the head with who the substitute was going to

the dup have failed to embrace power—sharing. they have failed to embrace the principle is at the heart of the good friday agreement of equality, of mutual respect and of party of esteem. they have acted disrespectfully towards irish identity and culture, and they have failed to deliver people their rights. whether that be marriage rights, language rights, economic rights, language rights, economic rights or cultural rights. so that has been the problem at the heart of the political crisis. the fundamental issue of rights. in regards to arlene foster's comments la st regards to arlene foster's comments last night and the offer of a parallel process, this is not a new offer. this is an issue, the issue offer. this is an issue, the issue ofa offer. this is an issue, the issue of a parallel process has been discussed, and disregarded throughout the course of all of the negotiations which we have had to date. so in essence it was making an offer which they knew would be rejected. the people out there want government. they want locall

i think it's the dup may not be on the same page of the government. in northern ireland, we the government. in northern ireland, we capped fees at around £3500 because we believe that an a cce pta ble because we believe that an acceptable level. it has been seen that if the government give into universities, universities will just grab as much as they could from students, while at the same time not looking for how they can make efficiencies. we've had the debate about vice chancellors with the money available from students and the third thing is, when you look at the third thing is, when you look at the debt and the interest rates which are charged on the debt, there really isn't anyjustification for putting six, 7% interest rate charges at a time when... do we give rise year after year? no. charges at a time when... do we give rise yearafteryear? no. do charges at a time when... do we give rise year after year? no. do we have the levels of interest on debt and do we find ways of curtailing it? yes. we have to leave it there. i think that was a first

of this given the dup's position vis-a-vis the government? obviously there'll be scrutiny of the behaviour of the dup's ten mps given their vital role in propping up the government via the confidence and supply arrangement from back in june. i would say irrespective of that, if any newspaper got hold of this information it would want to investigate it about any mp. as you said, the dup's response has been to say that they think it's right that the north antrim mp's referred thoims the parliamentary committee for standards. he's provided a full explanation of his activities, he says, and we'll have to wait and see what happens with the investigation from now on. thank you very much. a 13—year—old girl from somerset, whose organs were donated after her death, has saved or transformed the lives of eight patients, a record for a single uk donor. jemima layzell collapsed with a brain aneurysm and died four days later in hospital. five of the patients who received life—saving transplants of her organs were children. jemima's story is part of

the problem of course for the dup, if you have no border between north and south, you have more europe, more ireland and the connections with the uk start to disappear, which is what they are worried about. if you look at the electoral map of northern ireland, there is a strong green belt from county derry to south armagh and the unionist majority in northern ireland is shrinking. if i work the dup i would be solidly in favour of eu membership because that would have protected their future in the uk. without this for northern ireland there will be a constitutional moment over the next 20, 30 years. thank you very much for being with us thank you very much for being with us in florence. it has been spectacular today, a hot day in florence, and it looks beautiful in the sunshine. let's find out what the sunshine. let's find out what the weather has in store for the weekend. we got to 19 in london so not too bad a day. let's look at what hurricane maria is up to. 125 mph winds in the centre and these islands a little bit away from the centre but being buffeted with hurricane force winds w

distinctly awkward for the government, not only is the dup a key partner when it comes to the brexit debate in parliament, but also of course it is in the arena of brexit, talking about the free trade deal with the americans and detractors will say you see, we might have this special relationship but they wanted their way and this will be punishing for us and we will not be able to fight back as the smaller partner. in that sense for the government this is, just the wrong time. after facing criticism that his response to puerto rico was inadequate, the trump administration is now moving fast to send aid to the island. the trouble is, it's a bit late — hurricane maria hit a full week ago. the us department of defense says 44% of the population doesn't have access to clean drinking water. and there are 69 hospitals on the island but the storm knocked out power to most of them and they can't fuel to fire up their generators. the president has now agreed to boost disaster relief. but is it getting to the people who need it? a few moments ago we spoke to congresswoman jennifer gonzalez�

there area number of between the dup and sinn fein. there are a number of dividing issues but the big one is on sinn fein's demand foran the big one is on sinn fein's demand for an irish language act. last week the dup tried to come up with some kind of a solution to this saying they would have a parallel process where everybody would go back into government together and they would try and sort out those other issues on the sideline. at that stage if they couldn't agree then all of this would cease and the second it would end. sinn fein rejected that and said it was nothing new. it does leave you wondering where these negotiations can go and the pressure is on the northern ireland secretary because he should be under some kind of obligation to call fresh elections or put in place direct rule were effectively westminster ta kes rule were effectively westminster takes over the running of northern ireland. increasingly there is public pressure that something should be done because there are issues as far as public services are concerned,

i don't know how far the dup will take this. given your unique relationship with the government at the moment, is this something you would like to push on a harder basis with the prime minister perhaps in well, we have been pushing this very, very hard. we will continue to do that. bombardier is a huge employer in northern ireland. very, very important, but also, the fact that the c—series in particular in terms of the work that bombardier does has a particular relevance in terms of belfast. it employs thousands of people. in terms of wages, brought into northern ireland, we are talking in around £200 million per annum. ireland, we are talking in around £200 million perannum. so ireland, we are talking in around £200 million per annum. so there is a huge ramification for northern ireland if this preliminary decision stands. so therefore, we will be doing everything that we can to press the prime minister and we do believe the prime minister has been listening to what we have been saying about the importance of this, not onl

the first phase is getting the budget dup. we will get the budget done next week. we had a great conference and retreat this week. with moved away from the capitol. spent five hours working through it. kevin brady has done a tremendous job. you want to make seufrplter, you want to milwaukee it fair, and competitive around the world. no longer will families have to spend days on their tax reform. they will do it in minutes. they will be able to keep more of what they earn. we'll go back to having growth in measuring. if you really look at it, if you take the worst growth year under eight years of bill clinton, the worst year is still the better than the best year under barack obama. that is the real challenge of america, the lack of growth. if we want to solve any problems from the deficit, military and others, we have to have to have growth. >> this is a must pass. >> i agree 100%. >> the state and local tax deduction, high tax states. i used to be a californian. i'm ava van now. i know new york hates it. have you talked to your members? are they going to go along

interventions from the government or outside and at this stage the most important thing is that the dup and sinn fein come together and give the people of the northern ireland the devolved government which is what they want to give northern ireland a unique voice when it comes to brexit which is something that i think would be very important. neither of us at this stage are contemplating a failure of the talks. certainly i don't see any particular advantage in having another election in northern ireland and i did express a very strong view of the government in ireland that we would not favour a return to direct rule and we would see the good friday agreement continuing to be implemented. what would be a personal recommendation to your fellow european leaders when you meet them in italian as to whether we should progress to stage two of the talks? secondly there have been people voting down local property tax people are worried about the effect of the real valuation what it could cause in terms of taxation their homes, can you give any promise guarantee to people that there would be no i

the dup member of parliament has referred himself to the parliamentary standards commission, following a newspaper report. he said the article was devoid of fact or logic. a father who was drunk and asleep when his dog killed his 3—week—old son has been jailed at newcastle crown court. ryan young was sentenced to 21 months in prison for being in charge of a dangerous dog. his son, reggie young, was mauled at the family home in sunderland in, june two years ago. the use of potentially addictive painkillers across england has doubled in the last 15 years, according to a leading health group. 50,000 patients were studied, they were prescribed at least one of four types of potentially addictive drugs. 0pioid painkillers, such as codeine and tramadol, were the most commonly prescribed. in 2015 they were issued to one patient in 20, double the rate in 2000. the length of time people are being prescribed opioid pain killers has also increased from just over two months in 2000 to a peak of over three months in 2014. dominic hughes has been meeting some of those, whose lives have been shatt

the prime minister had no problems finding £1 billion to please the dup, no problems whatsoever. and nhs staff are 14% worse off than they were seven years ago. is she really happy that nhs staff use food banks? warm words don't play food bills. pay rises will help to do that. she must end the public sector pay cap. the snp westminster leader did turn to brexit. does the prime minister agree with me that immigration is essential to the strength of the uk economy as well as enhancing our diversity and cultural fabric? as i have said on many occasions before, overall immigration has been good for the uk, but what people want to see is control of that immigration. but i think what people want to see as a result of coming out of the european union. we are already able to exercise controls in relation to those who come to this country from outside the countries within the european union, and we continue to believe as a government that it's important to have net migration at sustainable levels. we believe that to be in the tens of thousands because of the impact particularly it has on

the dup is propping up the uk government as it negotiates brexit. the uk government is desperately trying to show that in a post—brexit world, it can make its own trade and business deals and allegiances. it's crucially important that it stays on very good terms with both the canadians and the americans. we will get an expert view on that in world business report. it's europe's biggest airline by passenger numbers and now, ryanair has created a massive pr nightmare for itself. the budget carrier announced on saturday that it would cancel 40—50 flights every day for the next six weeks. why? well, they're facing a massive backlog of staff leave, which means their pilots need to take holidays! the debacle has left tens of thousands of passengers stranded. as always the race a lot more to this and i will explain in world business report in about 20 minutes time. see you then. chris. the wife of the ousted pakistani prime minister nawaz sharif has won a by—election that was triggered when he stood down after being disqualified from public office. t

the commons leader, andrea leadsom, defended the move, saying that with dup support, the government had a working majority. the government of the day must have a realistic opportunity to make progress with its business through the house. the motion that the house is being asked to agree today guarantees that the party with a working majority is able to do exactly that. i will give way to the honourable gentleman. for the purposes of this parliament, the government only has a working majority for matters of confidence and supply. matters of confidence and supply, madam deputy speaker, are not committed to the public bill committees. they are dealt with on the floor of the house. in committees, they should not have, because they do not have in this house, a working majority. well, the right honourable gentleman will be aware that on the floor of this house the government does have a working majority, and as extensions of the floor of this house, it is right that the government must be able to have a realistic opportunity to get its business through. i feel sorry for the honourable leader

mr brokenshire says a deal between the dup and sinn fein remains achieveable but that pressures on public services are becoming evident. he says he may be forced to legislate from westminster to make sure services have the budgets they need. the policing minister has told the police superintendents conference that the government is not deaf to their concerns over increased workload and stress. nick hurd said in the light of recent budget cuts he realised there was a limit to how much more officers could do. a survey of superintendents found half were suffering from work—related anxiety, and a quarter had signs of depression. staff at two branches of mcdonald's have gone on strike — the first time a walkout has hit the fast food chain in the uk. workers in cambridge and south—east london began the disruption at midnight, demanding higher pay and more secure working hours. mcdonald's say only ia workers took part and say the action is related to internal grievance procedures and not pay. a man, who served almost three years in prison for a rape that never happened, has given his first

the plant itself is in a constituency held by the dup, which the government relies on to pass laws, so it is getting westminster‘s full attention. the prime minister on our behalf has raised this issue withjustin trudeau and donald trump will stop so at the highest level, we have been emphasising how important it is. thousands ofjobs depend on this. there is a long way to go in this increasingly acrimonious journey. a second ruling will be made in february, next year, and even that can be appealed. northern ireland is caught in the crossfire of a dispute between canada and the united states. remember that they others‘ biggest trading partners. as the uk looks when you trade friends, it is a reminder that even special relationships can sour. sixteen million australians are currently being asked to vote in a postal survey on same—sex marriage. the issue of legalising gay marriage is so polarising that parliament has approved new anti—vilification laws to keep the debate respectful. both no and yes campaigners have been accused of violence in the past few weeks. one woman from mel

but there were boos for the tories‘ deal with the dup. and sharp words from him on their record. nhs waiting lists lengthening. school class sizes growing and teachers leaving. over four million children now living in poverty. and condemned by the united nations for vile lating the rights of disabled people. this's not strong and stable. it's callous and calculating. on the challenge of brexit, the party's top brass has settled on a broad position thatjust about contains the pa rty‘s differences. one thing needs to be made clear straightaway, three million european union citizens currently living and working in britain are welcome here. so, theresa may, please, if you're watching, i'm sure you are... laughter. give them the full guarantees these deserve today. if you don't, we will when we're in government. cheering and applause. then the man considered on the fringes of his own parties for years maids his bravest claim that you have moved the public sentiments and belief now align with him. conference, it's often said elections can only be won from the centre ground. laughter.
