Columbian egan bernal is poised to be the youngest Tour De France winner in more than a century, sporting the Yellow Jersey going into todays final stage in paris. Coming up at half past two our last visit til the summer through the week in parliament hello. Good afternoon. Welcome to bbc news. There have been chaotic scenes in Central Hong Kong where volleys of tear gas have been fired against thousands of pro democracy protesters. Activists have been trying to reach the Chinese Governments official headquarters and the police are trying to stop them. Hong kong has now seen eight consecutive weekends of Anti Government and pro democracy protests. Our correspondent nick beake is there. The latest late night clashes in a city which prides itself on being peaceful. At least, it did. Riot police are losing patience and clearing out the final protesters, who had ignored a request to leave. Once again officers deny they went too far. But today, tens of thousands of hong kongers were back on the streets, protesting against alleged Police Violence during whats been two angry months of unrest. They spread out across the city, streaming past sunday shoppers. This is the eighth weekend of protest in this former british colony, handed back to china 22 years ago. The police had tried to ban todays event and warned that anyone who marched through the streets could be arrested, but, as you can see, it hasnt made any difference, and you do get the feeling now that many people in this city have simply no respect for the authorities, orfor the police. This evening another stand off, with officers blocking the way to the main Chinese Government building, which was defaced in the previous demonstration. The police and the people at loggerheads in a city at a crossroads. Nick beake reporting. Well, its now the middle of the night in hong kong and the clashes are still going on here are the latest pictures one line of right place is ready to move protesters back. One line of riot police. They have used tear gas and rubber bullets in the last 48 a was. Nick had to change into anti right protection gear so you might not recognise him in his next update. Anti riot. The latest is chaos. Look at this. Riot police have been moving people through the streets. They are now making arrests. They have fired more tear gas. Reinforcements are coming in. Its clear some people have probably been injured by this. The police are pushing us back, this has gone on for the past hour now. Look, someone is being arrested here. These are the officers who have been brought in. They have been firing tear gas, also rubber bullets, we think. This has just exploded in the last hour or so. It was a peaceful protest but it followed the pattern weve seen for many weeks now a peaceful protest followed by a hardcore of protesters throwing projectiles at the police. The polices patience, it seems, has simply run out. And so tonight, this man being detained or possibly assisted, it looks like his arms. They dont want us to film, but this is the reality of life today in hong kong. Now, the government here is now working on the assumption of a no deal brexit thats according to minister michael gove. Mr gove, whos now responsible for planning for such a scenario, said his team still aimed to come to an agreement with brussels but, writing in the sunday times, he added no deal is now a very real prospect. Meanwhile the chancellor sajid javid has confirmed he will soon announce extra funding for no deal preparations. Our Political Correspondent tom bartonjoins me now. You have been watching all of the positions of the government and opposition parties. This is the most explicit declaration that the government now expect a no deal. Absolutely. In particular michael gove writing in the sunday times today was very clear that there is iio today was very clear that there is no ifs, no buts, no more delay, brexit is happening. We have had Borisjohnson Brexit is happening. We have had Boris Johnson throughout the Leadership Campaign make it very clear that, what may october 31 is a deadline for deal or no deal. His ministers and this new cabinet are all true believers to that message. No one was allowed to join all true believers to that message. No one was allowed tojoin his cabinet without making a Firm Commitment to the 31st of october deadline. Michael gove made it very clear not only that they must operate on the assumption the eu will stick to its guns and not renegotiate and therefore an ideal outcome is very real prospect and planning for it is the number one priority. Sajid javid the chancellor is working to identify how much extra funding is needed to help governments of department prepare. Philip hammond had put some money aside anyway, hadnt he . Absolutely. Lam aside anyway, hadnt he . Absolutely. I am told they that we should expect this announcement to be north of £1 billion to prepare for no deal. So a significant amount of money and one that ministers say is going to help get the country on a footing and that money wont be wasted because it is money that would eventually need to be spent once britain doesnt finally untangle itself from the european union. It is absolutely right we prepare for it. We have to leave on our own terms. We would be happy to enter into renegotiations. We want to re move into renegotiations. We want to remove this undemocratic backstop from the existing agreement but if the eu is not willing to talk about that then it is right we prepare properly, with conviction and with the Financial Resources that the treasury will now supply properly for departments to make those preparations for our coming departure. That is sajid javids deputy at the treasury so he knows all about the numbers. A lot of the cabinet members who were in theresa mays last governments were privately critical about the lack of progress but now we are in a situation where the government is loud and proud as it were about preparing for no deal brexit, how prepared are we and how much do the opposition think they can still prevent this coming to pass . In terms of preparations there have been preparations. Funding was made available up to the two previous brexit deadlines we have had, march 29, one that never happened. Government departments have been preparing but the messaging has been very different. These articles in british papers today, really the intended audience is over in brussels because this is a game of and ship, it is about the British Government saying, you say you are sticking to your guns, so away. As that deadline approaches politically the reality is it will be very difficult for Boris Johnson and his team to walk away from their promise to leave, what weight even if the eu refuses to blink. I think in a way making preparations as well as signalling to the eu, perhaps it is just a practical thing to do because iio just a practical thing to do because no deal as michael gove observes is a possibility. There are plenty of people in parliament that want to stop it. Notjust the opposition but significant figures like the man who up significant figures like the man who up untila few significant figures like the man who up until a few days ago was doing the job that sajid javid is now, former chancellor Philip Hammond among those. Are phil guevara some of our colleagues were calling him. Along with david gauke walking out before borisjohnson along with david gauke walking out before Boris Johnson became along with david gauke walking out before borisjohnson became a minister. What are the options on the table . Minister. What are the options on the table . Potentially minister. What are the options on the table . Potentially there are parliamentary gymnastics to pass motions and change the law. They are all very difficult. Realistically with the time they have the most likely route available to them is a vote of no confidence in Boris Johnsons government and even then the timeframe is very tight because oii the timeframe is very tight because on the 31st of october, eight and a bit weeks away. And it is built in now that even if there is a no confidence it doesntjust immediately go to a general election. There is two weeks between the no confidence and an election being called and then you have at least four weeks until any general election takes place. What is labour saying election takes place. What is labour sa election takes place. What is labour saying now . Labour you would think their position might harden given their position might harden given the government because my position is definitely hardening. There has been lots of pressure on Jeremy Corbyn to come out more strongly in favour of a remain position. This morning though he didnt seem to be shifting his position very much at all. What were saying is no deal we will oppose and we think people should have a final choice on it. They could have a vote then between remain or whatever option borisjohnson decides to put to them at that time. SoJeremy Corbyns so Jeremy Corbyns position soJeremy Corbyns position not necessarily changing. As that october 31 deadline gets ever closer the pressure on him will begin to mount. Back to our main story and the police disbursing protesters in hong kong. Our correspondence is there for us now. Can you hear us . |j kong. Our correspondence is there for us now. Can you hear us . I can hear. It might be hard to hear me because i have a gas mask on. This isa because i have a gas mask on. This is a deterioration on what was happening because the protest was banned. Are the police losing control of this . Look, there is a very big problem with that. How does the police really take control of the police really take control of the streets when there is such a lack of respect for those in the government, those in control of this city and for the police force. Many people here see the police as part of the problem. When the police tell them not to come out in march now they are arming up. Theyre coming with their own gas masks and helmets. People are coming back from the front, if you can call it that, where the police are, where everyone is ducking down. People retreating and then back up to the front again when many rounds of tear gas are being fired. Rubber bullets. Im still the preparedness for this protest movement to turn out the matter what what is still quite strong. Despite the possibility of being arrested, being hurt, despite the fact that the police and the government has told them not to protest. They are saying that this is their big chance to get democracy here and they want to vote for the government and they are prepared to ta ke government and they are prepared to take this more violent means. If we move take this more violent means. If we m ove over take this more violent means. If we move over here a bit we can see the other side. And how many protesters there are. There are thousands of protesters here in yellow hats. You can see people who have been hurt by the tear gas washing their faces and getting themselves ready to return to the front of this protest where they are really challenging the police stop we will come back to you in the course of the evening. Lets talk to someone who sits on the legislative committee in hong kong. We have been out on the weekend as these protests have continued. Why have they got out of hand . Earlier your correspondence was saying that the young seem to have displayed this lack of respect with the authorities. The fact is it isa with the authorities. The fact is it is a complete loss of any trust or confidence in the authorities, in particular the police force because there is this accusation around the city that they are working with the mob, the gangsters, the triad in hong kong. The more you seem to be inciting the young, the more they come out in defiance. They will use their version of force and ultimately the young are telling me that they have nothing to lose and it is there hong kong and they are fighting for it and it is their future. They want a truly democratic future. They want a truly democratic future. Nothing to lose, in a sense thatis future. Nothing to lose, in a sense that is quite a worrying thing for young people to be saying because they have a huge stake in the future of hong kong and equally that sense that there is no alternative to that. With respect and you and your colleagues, they no longer see the Legislative Assembly is actually a way of getting their point of view heard and indeed acted on. The legislator legislature in hong kong gets more votes but fewer seats. We have a very twisted election system and on top of that the young are convinced that this time around if they didnt get any change in the actual system that iu ns change in the actual system that runs hong kong they are not letting go and they are saying there is nothing to lose. They are actually saying they are prepared to die for this fight. That is very worrying. Weve got five young people killing themselves saying they are so desperate and those who are not joining that are saying we will fight on their behalf. So this is getting very exasperating and carry bmb getting very exasperating and carry lamb carrie lam government is the one country two systems was meant to be properly implemented. What would you like to hear from the new government in london about what is happening . I have heard criticism in recent years about democracy campaigners in hong kong who say when they come to london government ministers might even meet them . That is very true. I really wish mr johnson would make a firmer stance. It isa johnson would make a firmer stance. It is a matter of honour and it is a sense of responsibility. The uk is their joint sense of responsibility. The uk is theirjoint signatory sense of responsibility. The uk is their joint signatory to sense of responsibility. The uk is theirjoint signatory to the joint declaration which of course beijing has said expired and doesnt work any more and carries no effect any more. In diplomacy you can have a war of words but i hope that it would be more than that. We have quite a large numbers of passport holders in hong kong. What would it be like if you would actually consider against the sum and trouble and the right in the uk. Correct me if im wrong but what you appear to be saying is from britains point of view it should be self interest to protest a nd view it should be self interest to protest and challenge china because otherwise it could see a significant number of people fleeing from hong kong and turning up in britain. No, iam not kong and turning up in britain. No, i am not saying that. What im saying is that diplomatic pressure might work. Theres always the china market consideration and i understand that. Be realistic if you really wa nt understand that. Be realistic if you really want to help is it possible for you to consider giving some of the piano passport holders the right to vote in the hong kong the right to vote in the uk. The right to vote in the uk. With increasing signs of protesters defying police. And obvious evidence that they are trying to frighten the youngin they are trying to frighten the young in hong kong to go back to school and back to work and back home. I wish china would think twice before they do that because that would be a huge cost. It is notjust about the us china trade disputes and things but also about beijing wanting to become number one in the international community. If you really wa nt international community. If you really want to become some big brother country and the leader in a new world order you need some moral fibre and to get that you have to show that she would reason with hong kong and at the young in hong kong would want democracy and not much else. Universal values that rule human rights and democracy are also are raised by the beijing authorities. That would be a huge price for beijing to pay and im sure that the more reasonable intellectuals in beijing can see that. Claudia mo, member of the hong kong legislative council, thank you very much forjoining us on bbc news. In other news. Senior diplomats from britain, france, germany, russia and china are meeting representatives from iran in vienna today to discuss how to save the 2015 nuclear deal. Tensions in the gulf have soared since last year when President Donald Trump withdrew the United States from the landmark accord, which curbed tehrans Nuclear Programme in return for an easing of economic sanctions. We can speak to our correspondent in vienna, bethany. This is a meeting that presumably nobody expects will overcome all of the problems that have arisen since President Trumps decision to pull out. What is the tone of these exchanges between the iranians government and the other governments who are signatories of this treaty . Well, a little while ago irans Senior Nuclear negotiator came out and said that the atmosphere in the room had been constructive. He said that all remaining parties to this deal were determined to save it. He also spoke about a number of complaints and a chinese diplomat said there were moments of tension particularly when the europeans insisted that iran reverse its breaches of limits on its sensitive nuclear work and iran turned round is apparently to the europeans and said they had to make things easier for them when it came to circumventing american sanctions. These are very delicate negotiations but what we have heard from the diplomats emerging from the talks so far is that there is a determination to try and save the steel although that will be very difficult given the us pulled out and has reimposed biting sanctions on iran. Here, roads and rail lines have been closed in north west england due to flooding. Cars have been left stranded on flooded roads in stockport whilst sections of the m60 motorway in Greater Manchester were temporarily shut following heavy rain. Following the record breaking temperatures earlier this week, flood alerts have also been issued across the uk, with disruption expected in parts of scotland and northern ireland. Democrats in the United States have renewed accusations of racism against President Trump after he criticised a prominent African American congressman. The president accused elijah cummings, whos the head of the powerful House Oversight committee, of trying to hurt innocent people while doing nothing for his baltimore district, which mr trump branded a rodent infested mess. Mr cummings recently criticised the Trump Administration over conditions in migrant detention centres.
