Lets go back to our top story now brags that i want to britains poorest cities dozens of carter ferries had for europe every day and more in the mood in britain from one of the poorest cities with a High Percentage of leave it is the people of whole want to brag that they were done hoping it would be the onset of their problems and they would reports. A gateway to europe the humber is the u. K. s busiest trading estuary and home to one of its poorest cities nearly 68 percent of people voted to leave the e. U. In the 2016 referendum. Many here want breaks it down and a deal to be passed in parliament the village in delhi for an eye on 3 years they were asked did we want to send deals with the ballot paper was yes or no you want to leave with no i just i just wish to kalm with that. And come out i mean how were going to tell you what we expect cause were all pretty safe coming to the end now this time we hope is 3 years ago everybody voted to come out and its in my opinion that thats the wishes of the people that voted that we should come out and spend some time doing the things is to do all the necessary raise any chance of things that needed there were high levels of poverty in parts of home taking back control from europe is talked about by some here very little has changed since 2016 and many people are hoping that by leaving year some of the cities problems will be solved and finally get the brick said they were promised. Big companies have invested in hull and many have close ties with europe every day ferries leave the poor laden with cargo and lorries bound for the new.

K. Or the u. K. To e. U. Because you have to customs clear on both sides many poles of britain a feeling. Teague by bricks it looking for a solution whatever that may be even if it leaves britain standing alone and he would aljazeera in whole. Lets go back to london now where the British Parliament is meeting in the next few minutes theyve started meeting to discuss Boris Johnsons begs the day lets just quickly go live now to paul brennan whos at westminster for the latest pool as were talking to you were looking at other pictures of the feeds coming in Speaker John Bercow has just started talking in Parliament Just talk us through this i mean theyre calling it Super Saturday it looks like its going to be an incredibly tight vote at westminster later you were telling us earlier this is all about the mathematics but the numbers might not go Boris Johnsons way today you know the numbers are extremely tight he needs 320 votes from m. P. s in order to make this legislation pass he may have them but it cant be guaranteed there arithmetic is its looking at the moment its somewhere in the region of 3 102. 00 votes that he has pretty much nailed down guaranteed in favor of his deal he has around 300. 00 warned against its very tight indeed there are somewhere in the region of 3536. 00 theyre undecided at this point and its high time and the way they vote will obviously be very crucial and dont forget there are 11 who dont vote 7 shin fein from Northern Ireland they dont take their seats in the Commons Speaker in the 3 deputies they dont vote tie that so its those 3036. 00 that that are really that really matter. Paul just as we watch john bercow the speaker in the session just talk us through what we can expect to happen the timetable today in terms of the procedures the motions tables and of course the big moment the final vote later on. Well echoing what you are just. Like the house now what i meant and why i started i started to house the president his Opening Statements and it makes a deal for the 1013 what it is and indeed 2 members of the house common staff whove worked to make this possible and i know its bent people giving up their saturdays breaking into their weekends at a time when families want to be together and of course it means missing at least the end of englands world cup quarter final i apologize to the house for for that and i wish i could watch it myself i know the owner member for cardiff west has postponed his 60th Birthday Party if not his 60th birthday to be here so mr speaker the house has gone to a great deal of trouble to assemble here on a saturday for the 1st time in a generation and i do hope that in assembling for the purposes of a meaningful vote that we will indeed be allowed to have a meeting great shape. And with permission mr speaker i should make a statement on the new agreement with our european friends in the house who need no reminding that this is the 2nd deal and the 4th vote 3 and a half years after the nation voted for breaks and during those years friendships have been strained families divided and the attention of this house consumed by a single issue that has at times felt incapable of resolution but i hope mr speaker that this is the moment when we can finally. That resolution and reconciled the instincts that compete with us. Many times in the last 30 years ive heard our european friends remark that this country is half hearted in its e. U. Membership and it is true that we in the u. K. Have often been a backmarker opting out of the single currency not taking part in schenkkan very often trying to block some collective ambition and in the last 3 and a half years it has been striking that members on all sides of this house have debated brix it in almost entirely practical terms in an argument that is focused on the balance of economic risk and advantage and i dont think i can recall a time when ive heard a Single Member stand up and call for britain to play her food part in the political construction of a federal europe and i dont think ive heard a Single Member call for ever closer union or ever deeper integration or a federal destiny mopey you will probably pass that side ive missed it but i dont think ive heard much of a mr speaker. And there is a whole side. All sides of that debate that you hear regularly in other european capitals that is simply absent from our National Conversation and i dont think that has changed much in the last 30 years but if we have been skeptical and if we have been anxious about the remoteness of the bureaucracy if we have been dubious about the rhetoric of union and integration if we have been half hearted europeans then it follows logically that with part of our hearts with hoff our hearts we feel Something Else a sense of love and respect for european culture and civilization of which we are a ha ha ha a desire to cooperate with our friends and partners in everything creatively artistically intellectually a sense of our shared destiny and a deep understanding of the eternal need it specially after the horrors of the last century for britain to stand as one of the grand tools of peace and democracy in our continent and it is our continent and its precisely because we are capable of feeling both things at once skeptical about the modes of e. U. Integration as we are but passionate and infuse the asked dick about europe that the whole experience of the last 3 and a half years has been so difficult for this country and so divisive and that is why it is now so urgent for us to move wrong and to build a new relationship with our friends in the e. U. On the basis of a new deal a deal that can heal the rift in british politics and night ok. Night. And night the warring states in us all and now is the time for this great house of commons to come together and bring the country together today ok i think as i believe the people at home are hoping and expecting with a new way forward and a new and better deal for britain and for our friends in the e. U. And that is the advantage of the agreement that we have struck with our friends in the last 2 days because this deal allows the u. K. Whole and entire to leave the e. U. On october 31st in accordance with the referendum while simultaneously looking forward to a new Partnership Based on the closest ties of friendship and cooperation and i pay tribute to our european friends for escaping the prison of existing positions and sharing the vision to be flexible by reopening it was droll yes and that by addressing the deeply felt concerns of many in this house one of my most important jobs is to express those concerns to our european friends and i shall continue to listen to all honorable members throughout the debate today to meet with anyone. On any side and to welcome the scrutiny the house will bring to bear if as i hope we proceed to consider the withdrawal bill next week. Today this house has a historic opportunity to share the same breadth of vision as our european neighbors the same ability resolve to reach beyond past disagreements by getting brakes it done and moving and moving this country forwards as we all yearn to do this agreement provides for a real brecht taking back control of our holders few laws money farming fisheries and trade amounting to the greatest single restoration of National Sovereignty in parliamentary history it removes the backstop which would have held us against our will in the Customs Union and much of the Single Market for the 1st time in almost 5 decades the u. K. Will be able to strike free trade deals with our friends across the world to benefit the whole country including Northern Ireland article 4 of the protocol states Northern Ireland is part of the customs territory of the United Kingdom he adds nothing in this protocol should prevent Northern Ireland from realizing the preferential Market Access in any free trade deals on the same terms as goods produced in other parts of the United Kingdom on the go and so focused on the uniquely sensitive nature of the border between Northern Ireland and the republic and we have respected those sensitivities above all we and our european friends have preserved the letter and the spirit of the belfast good friday agreement and held the longstanding areas of cooperation between the u. K. And ireland including the common travel area. And as i told the house on the 3rd of october in order to prevent a regulatory board on the island of ireland we propose a regular trees are covering all goods including agra food eliminating any need for associate he checks at the border but mr speaker. In this agreement we have gone further by also finding a solution to the vexed question of customs which many in this house have raised our agreement ensures and i quote unfettered access Market Access for goods moving from Northern Ireland to the rest of the United Kingdoms internal market 18 shoes that there should be no tariff on goods circulating within the u. K. Customs territory that is between Great Britain and Northern Ireland in less they are at risk of entering the e. U. It ensures an open border
