week in parliament. hello there and welcome to the week in parliament. coming up: is it finally take—off for heathrow‘s third runway? passions run high in the commons as mps argue over airport expansion and what it might mean for local people. i would support a fourth and fifth runway, actually, at heathrow and at gatwick. 8,000 to 10,000 people forcibly removed from their community. also on this programme, as the scottish parliament breaks for its summer recess, our scotland political editor gives us his end—of—term report. and at prime minister's questions, jeremy corbyn taunts theresa may over her cabinet brexit splits, which he reckons are giving big business the collywobbles. the real risk to jobs in our country is a prime minister who is having to negotiate round the clock with her own cabinet to stop it falling apart. he's got a decision to make. he can either back business or he can want to overthrow capitalism, he can't do both. and i'll be reporting from a new exhibition telling the sto

where where the negotiations have got to and that's what we're waiting for in parliament is an update now we have been told at the weekend in response to the announcements by air bus and others that negotiations are going well well you know i hope the part will have an option to be updated on those negotiations very soon probably offer some of the prime minister will come to parliament and make a statement next monday afternoon in contrast to the lack of decision making from the british cabinet brussels has been crystal clear hasn't it last december michel barnier. sat down with the full authority of the twenty seven other countries mrs maker and even get a cabinet to agree but he's got twenty seven countries and he said british red lines are leaving the european court of justice and ruling a free movement meant that the only option left available was a free trade agreement similar to the one kind of got in twenty sixty one but try taking him at his word that's it that's all they're offering sadly i'm not in charge of the negotiations on the u.k.'s side and of course what people say p

in new zealand, members of parliament will be able to hold their infants whilst engaging in debates. and finally, let's look at the frontpage of le figaro, it's football and france, who have won the 2018 world cup for the second time in a thrilling 4—2 defeat of croatia in moscow. with me is michaela bergman, who's principal social specialist at the asian infrastructure and investment bank. so to the good to see you and. good morning. so so much to discuss and as ever, president trump is dominating. he has had this very controversial trip to europe. he came to the uk, and now he is in helsinki but before he headed for finland, he did a television interview with cbs when he said lots of things and one of them was the european union is my foreign. yes, well, i think the one thing about mr trump is clearly he is unpredictable. -- my foe. he sometimes uses these words but they may not have the same meaning that we understand because also in the same article, he says that he really respects their leaders, so it is almost like a starting gambit, his sort of way of engaging. it is unpredi

and with their support they will be able to get the majority in parliament in order to do legislation mr clearly has a mandate that he didn't arguably have before the election given that and given that he maybe feels more comfortable in the job than he did before that vote what are the chances that he would react in a positive way to suggestions of legislation that might mean he would have to albeit temporarily say loosen the stays of the control mechanism that he can use whenever he wants. well i think. with this your constitution. the constitutional setup in terms of the checks and balances has been established and i don't expect those to change even if there were to be winning this at the highest levels of government so what might happen instead is that we might see more points to get free political agenda emerging from the presidency but i don't expect any religious the efforts to strengthen the checks and balances because those were established with the constitutional amendments and that that won't change in the foreseeable future so thank you so much. thousands of people in citi

it would leave the chancellor without a majority in parliament here's what could happen next. medco c.d.u. and her coalition partner the social democrats and it could go it alone and continue to govern without a majority but i'm sure in the lengthy negotiations to form the current government machall already made it clear that this is not a route she would be keen to take. to avoid a minority government the c.d.u. and the social democrats could look for a new coalition partner this could really be the environmentalists greens. of the business friendly free democrats it's unlikely that machall would be able to remain chancellor in this scenario. if the bavarian conservatives were out of the coalition that would technically be a majority in parliament against magical if all the parties in the bundestag got together they could table a vote of no confidence against her this is unlikely however given the huge divides between them. all finally new elections could be called again this is not a scenario many would relish the last general elections were held less than a year ago and it
