Omarion evan steen thanks for joining us in just a few moments from now the british Prime MinisterBoris Johnson will address parliament in a bid to get m. P. s to support his brigs a deal and a vote thats to take place later in the day im joined in the studio by bragg brags that analyst rob much hello to you and following developments from london for us bereket las there she is hello get. All right were waiting any moment now for Boris Johnson to begin his speech but 1st brahma what can we expect from the Prime Minister this morning what will happen is that its his Charm Offensive will breed. Thats the message shes being are putting out across the country in the last few days ever since he secured a deal the question is whether as you mentioned he has the numbers i think right now it really is too close to call either way hes got to get on board so many other m. P. s not just his conservatives but the rebel tories that he expelled the labor. M. P. s who represents leave constituencies i think i believe about naing have said they would back the deal that leaves around 11 who are still undecided the d. D. P. The irish union so said they wont back the deal. Then youve got the the really hard line breaks it is the European Research group they apparently have said yes theyre behind the deal now but it still leaves it really too close to call this stage are iberian says still too close to coop how is johnson likely to presenting his position how is he likely to try and persuade the parliamentarians to support his deal in his remarks. He has got to really talk to 2 audiences here in the houses of parliament no one is very Important Group that is already mentioned is that its the labor party m. P. s say hes going to try and tell them that this is their charms to vote for their constituents who many of them are really fed up people in the u. K. Just one to move on and he will try and tell them just you know do the right thing for the country this might be the last chance to get a deal and on this same point hes also his own conservative m. P. s the brick city is who have in the past not voted for any deal that reason may has brought forward he will tell them well if you want practice it the day is now its today because if you. You dont vote with me who know you see whats going to happen in the whole brett surprises we know that there are several of the parliamentarians who are trying to force through a confirmatory referendum and then maybe the brits approaches could be stopped altogether so he would say its now do or die is what you always said britain leaves needs to leave all right so johnsons message is going to its do or die and yet his predecessor to rescind may put her brakes and deal to parliament 3 times it was resoundingly rejected every one of those times and now apparently this vote is expected to be even closer. Rob explain to us how it does in johnsons deal defer from the previous deal put forward by theresa may thats a good question and i think im not the only one whos been puzzling over that i think the devil is in the detail. I think essentially what hes done hes turned the the backstop into a norm back story backstop or full stop so to speak so essentially he has said that the u. K. Will step out of the Customs Union which is something that reason may have visit she had wanted to have the u. K. Remain in the Customs Union until the transition period beyond 2020 is over. Then the u. K. Would be able to strike free trade deals now johnson has managed to get away with that and said we can immediately struck trade deals with other countries but it still leaves the question do you need some sort of Customs Union border somewhere so now it will be down the obvious see ports on the outer see essentially trucking goods that go from mainland britain to Northern Islands and the do you believe said. This is something they find unacceptable and its just going to put some much drag on the whole bureaucracy and. Centrally it would mean that. They would also have to be able to give consent to this deal every thing for years but if they are assembly by simple majority can say we dont like it there would then be to be cooling off period until everyone comes around to me saying no agreeing on terms again the step to 0 so. I as you can sell the devils in the details all right we understand that Boris Johnson british Prime Minister is addressing parliament lets go or is about to address parliament lets have a listen to whats happening over there. Paul thinks maybe for the convenience of the house now the 2nd mission is debatable i think it will be convenient for the 2 may sions to be debated together so that reference to the 2nd motion may be made in the debate and if the 2nd motion is moved i will put the question or questions only that motion without separate effect. Statement the Prime Minister yeah. Ok mr speaker i want to begin by echoing what you just said my gratitude to all members of the house for assembling on a saturday for the 1st time in 37 years and indeed to members of the house of commons staff who have worked take this sitting possible and i know its meant 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 that and i wish i could watch it myself i know the owner of a 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 meaningful break a and we with permission mr speaker i should make a statement on the new agreement with our european friends and the house will need no reminding that this is the 2nd deal and the 4th vote and 3 and hockey is after the nation voted for brics it and during those years friendships have been strained families divide. Made 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 achieve that resolution and reconcile 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 also sides of this house have debated brits 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 how 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 have a deeper integration or a federal destiny more pay you you will probably perhaps that side of history but i dont think ive heard much of a mr speaker. And there is a whole side theres a whole side of that there is a whole side 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 had been skeptical and if we have been anxious about the remoteness of the bureaucracy if we had. Being dubious about the rhetoric of union and integration if we have half hearted europeans they meet 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. 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 it term of the need is 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 constant 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 yeah stick 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 good night. Good night the warring instincts 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 believe as i believe the people at home are hoping and its. But 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 yeah ok 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 it done and moving and moving this country forwards as we all to do this agreement provides for a real brits taking back control of our borders laws money farming fisheries and trade amounting to the greatest single restoration of National Sovereignty in parliament 3 history it removes the back stock 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 sheesh 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 border on the island of ireland we propose a regular preserve covering all goods including agra food eliminating any need for satiate 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 quit unfettered access Market Access for goods moving from Northern Ireland to the rest of the United Kingdoms internal market 18 should is that there should be no terry on goods circulating within the u. K. Customs territory that is between Great Britain and Northern Ireland unless they are at risk of entering the e. U. It ensures an open border and open border on the island of ireland a Common Objective everyone in this house and you didnt should and indeed should for those living and working alongside the border there will be no visible practical changes to their lives they can carry on as before i believe that this is a good arrangement reconciling the special circumstances in Northern Ireland with the minimum possible bureaucratic consequences the few points of a right. I did is precisely to ensure that those arrangements are acceptable to the people of Northern Ireland that we have made consent a fundamental element of this new deal so arrangements can be imposed on Northern Ireland if they do not work for Northern Ireland the people of Northern Ireland will have the right. Under this agreement to express with hold them consent to these provisions head by means of a majority vote in their assembly 4 years after the end of the transition and if you assembly chooses to withhold consent these provisions shall cease to apply after 2 years during which the joint committee of the u. K. And e. U. Would propose a new way forward in concert. With Northern Ireland it situations. And as soon as this house allows the process of extracting all souls from the e. U. To be completed the exciting and to price of building a new relationship with our friends can begin which has been too long today. For them to speak of i do not wish this project to be the project of any one government or any one party but rather the endeavor of the United Kingdom as a whole. Only. Only this parliament can make this new relationship the work of the nation and so parliament should be at the heart of Decision Making as we develop our approach and i go to but thats in the past we have not always acted perhaps in that spirit so as as we take forward as we take forward our friendship with our closest neighbors and construct that new relationship i will ensure that a broad and open process drools upon the will of expertise in every part of this house including Senate Committees and chairs every party and every member who wishes to contribute will be invited to do so and we shall start by debating the mandate from the geishas in the next phase mr speaker the ambition for a future friendship is contained in the revised political declaration which also provides for the skies to be free to decide our own laws and regulations. I have complete faith in this house to choose regulations that are in our best tradition of the highest and the highest was by god of environmental protections and work because right now no one no one anywhere in this trade believes in the ring standards it was. A lot of just icky lation the statement by the Prime Minister must be and it will be a Prime Minister this is big i reckon no one believes in daring standards instead we believe in improving the as indeed we will be able to do as we will be able to do and seizing the opportunities of our new freedoms for example free from the Common Agricultural policy we will have a far simpler system where we will reward farmers for improving our environment and animal welfare. Many of whose provisions are impossible under the counter agents instead of just paying them for their acreage and free from the common fisheries policy we can ensure a sustainable yields based on the latest science notes ive dated methods of setting creatures and these restored powers will be available not simply to this government but to every future British Government of any party to use as they see fit that is what restoring sovereignty means that is what is meant in practice by taking back control of our destiny. And our 1st decision which i believe there will be unanimity. Is that in any future trade negotiations with any country our National Health service will not be on the table thank god. This is because i am convinced. Mr speaker i am convinced that an overwhelming majority in this house regardless of off personal views wishes to see bricks it delivered in accordance with a referendum. A majority i didnt its crucial mission that could no longer be any argument for further delay to someone who passionately believed that we had to go back to our european friends to seek a better agreement i must tell the house that with this new deal the scope for future negotiation for fruitful negotiation has run its course they said they say these it they couldnt we couldnt really put it we could all agree. They said we couldnt reopen the brewery but they said we couldnt change a comma of the real growth they said we couldnt abolish the backstop this just because weve done. But it is now my judgment that we have reached the best possible solution so theres who agree like me the breaks it must be delivered and who like me prefer to avoid a new deal i probably must abandon the delusion that this house can do they again and i must tell the house in all candor that there is very different appetite our friends in the e. U. For this great business to be protected by one extra day. They have had 3 and a half years of this debate has distracted them from their own projects. And their own ambitions and if there is one feeling if there is one feeling that unites the British Public with a growing number of officials in the e. U. It is a burning desire to get bricks it done thank you and i must tell the house again you know that whatever that is they may seek to enforce the government seek to force the government to write it cannot change my judgment the further delay is pointless expensive and deeply corrosive of public trust ok people simply will not understand how politicians can say with one breath. They want. To avoid no deal and then with the next breath that they still want delay when a great deal is that could be thawing how does the time. Now is the time mr speaker to get this thing done and i say to all members that has come together to end i did us come together as democrats to end this debilitating feud let us come together as democrats to get behind this deal the one proposition that fulfills the verdict of the majority but which also allows us to bring together the 2 hogs a box to bring together the 2 halves of our nation that speak not only for the 52. 00 and for the 48. 00 that. Can heal this country lets go through a deal that can heal this country and can are 0 to express our legitimate desires for the deepest possible friendship and partnership with our neighbors a deal that allows us to create to shed destiny with them a deal but also a deal that also allows us to express our confidence in our own democratic. Its to make our own goals to determine our own future to believe in ourselves once again as an open generous global outward looking free trading United Kingdom to use the prospect that is the prospect of the steel office our country it is a great prospect and a great deal and i commend it to the ha ha ha i believe the opposition generally call ben thank you thank you mr speaker i join you in thank you all the stuff that have come into the house this morning to help us planing stuff catering Staff Security staff officials and our own staff theyve given up a weekend in order to help our deliberations i also want to thank the Prime Minister for an advance copy of his statement he has renegotiated that with drawl agreement and maybe even worse. Hes renegotiated the political decoration and made that even worse we having a debate today on a text for which there is no Economic Impact assessment and no accompanying legal advice this government has sought to avoid scrutiny throughout the process and yesterday evening made empty promises on workers rights and the environment the same government that spent the last few weeks negotiating in secret to remove the Withdrawal Agreement legally binding commitments on workers rights and the environment this government cannot be trusted and these benches will not be due. Neither will the governments no i dont is to speak your worldly governments own work because the head of the Civil ServiceUnion Prospect yesterday met the right on the full member of a sorry heath and at the conclusion of that meeting he said and i quote i asked the reassurances. The government would not die verge on workers rights after breaks it he could not give me those assurances and as for the much hyped bleeding environment bill the legally binding targets will not be enforceable until 2037 for this government the Climate Emergency can always white mrs make up this deal risks peoples jobs rights at work our environment and our National Health service we must be honest about what this deal means for our Manufacturing Industry and peoples jobs not only does it reduce access to the market of our biggest trading partner it leaves us with out a Customs Union which will Damage Industries all across this country in every one of our constituencies. From nissen in Sunderland Heintz in wigan boss in broughton and Jaguar Land Rover in birmingham thousands of british jobs depend on a Strong Manufacturing sector and a Strong Manufacturing sector needs markets through fluid supply chains all across the European Union. A vote for this deal would be a biotech cut manufacturing jobs all across this country. This deal mr speaker would inevitably and absolutely never to be late to a trump trade deal. Forcing the u. K. Forcing the u. K. To diverged from the highest standards and expose our families once again to chlorine wash chicken and hormone treated thank you. Thank you they still. Say that the statement by the Prime Minister must be. Response of leader of the opposition in the best traditions of parliamentary democracy must also be heard and it will be called in yeah. Wales to enshrine the principle that we keep pace with the European Union on Environmental Standards and protections putting at risk our current rules from air pollution standards to chemical safety we all know the public concern about these issues all at the same time that we are facing a Climate Emergency and thats true of his rights we simply cannot give the government a blank check this is big you dont have to take my word for all of this listen for example to the team you see general secretary francis a great who say is this. That she just. She does represented organize a show and she does represent an organization that has 6000000 members affiliated through a they still has to speak what be i disaster for working people abraham of the economy cost jobs and sell workers rights down the river. Listen to make you can say representing british manufacturers say and i quote this is my cue case comments on this deal members opposite might care to listen to them commitments to the closest possible trading relationships in goods have gone under this deal differences in regulation between the u. K. And the e. U. Without cost and bureaucracy our companies will face a lack of clarity inhibiting investment and planning listen also to the Green Alliance who said the deal amounted to a very sad brics it read from a climate for 2nd perspective the message to speak it is clear this deal is not good for jobs damaging. For our industry and us threats to our environment and our Natural World its not a good deal for our country and future generations will feel the impact it should be voted down today by this. Mr speaker i also totally understand the frustration and the fatigue across the country and in this house but we simply cannot vote for a deal that is even worse than the one the house rejected 3 times the governments own Economic Analysis shows this deal would make the poorest regions even poorer and cost each person in this country over 2000 pounds a year. If we vote for a deal that makes our constituents poorer were not likely to be forgiven for doing that mr speaker the government is claiming that if we support that deal it will get done and that backing them today is the only way to stop a no jail i simply say nonsense supporting the government is afternoon would merely fire the starting pistol in a race a race to the bottom in regulations and standards and if anyone had any doubts about this we only have to listen to what their own all robel members have been saying like the one yesterday who rather let the cat out of the bag saying members should back this deal as it means we can leave with no jail by 2020. Because it truly got out of the bag so. Can the Prime Minister confer whether this is the case and if a Free Trade Agreement has not been done it would mean britain forming on 2 will trade Organization Terms by. December next year with only nose and on and having preferential access to the e. U. Market no wonder the Foreign Sector has said this represents and i quote a cracking deal for knowles and ireland they would retain frictionless access to the Single Market it does beg the question mr speaker why cant the rest of the u. K. Get a cracking if you buy my shining access to the Single Market the t. Shirt said and i quote its allows the all out in the economy to continue to develop and one which protects the european Single Market some members of this have to welcome in all on the economy but i didnt think that included the governments in the conservative in unionist policy and the Prime Minister because in the summer under no circumstances will i allow the e. U. Or anyone else to create any kind of division down the irish sea you cannot trust a word thats the size. Of. Mrs speak up voting for a deal today and breaks it it wants to live a certainty and the people should have the final say labor is not prepared to sell out the communities that we represent thank you wait. Thank you. We are not prepared. We are not prepared to sell their future and we will not back this sell out deal this is about our communities now and about our future generations a Prime Minister. Mr speaker i must confess im disappointed by the time that the all right thank you thank you for yours i i have i had cool that you might rise to the occasion all right if youre just joining us weve been bringing you live coverage from the u. K. House of commons where just moments ago the opposition labor leader Jeremy Corbyn was delivering his remarks following a speech by the u. K. s Prime Minister of Boris Johnson who is urging parliamentarians to put their support behind the new deal on leaving the European Union that he agreed just 2 days ago with the e. U. I have with me in the studio for an analysis is that expert i can say robert much good to have you here with me and following the developments from london is correspondent so id like to start with you why dont we go back 1st to the remarks by Boris Johnson and he talked a lot about restoring sovereignty to the u. K. About restoring power taking control of the countrys destiny what did you make of his speech to parliament. I think it was a strong speech by Boris Johnson it was in the conciliatory we have seen him in the pasta and recent weeks where he really was quite impolite towards palm and hereon fellow parliamentarians he used offensive language and he stood up this was an attempt to just bring peace and rally people behind him so he complimented column and he said how important it would be that this decision was made by the elected representatives he also was very nice towards the European Union he spoke about love and friendship to woods europe so trying to pave the way for a new kind of relationship with the then we have seen in the paul say i think all together speech that was really trying to to to talk to everybodys concern as well in parliament to these on the labor party. You might fear that there might be a sellout in workers rights in particular weve just had Jeremy Corbyn say that but also you say do fellow conservative m. P. s this is the deal this is your johns to actually get breaks done so you take that you know do it do it today. Yes so in addition to saying this is the time to get the deal done rob he was also talking about how its time to bring the 2 halves of the nation back together he called his deal the deal that can heal this country do you think he was convincing will he persuade people to vote to support his deal i think hes probably maneuvered it tactically in such a way now that he will possibly manage to do that because the public the country is probably sick and tired of the whole saga and thats why he chose his words the way he did bring both the leverage and the remains together to try and heal the rifts that have now existed since 3 and a half years and hes only got progressively worse because the whole. Has also meant that the mystic issues have been left for the wayside and a chance crying homelessness so apart from trying to get that message sorted out hes also got to tackle so many of the domestic issues to try and bring society back together well was many of these domestic issues which Opposition Leader from the labor party in germany corben touched about in his remarks in response to Boris Johnson speech he said this deal was even worse than the previous deal put forward by johnsons predecessor cherry some may he talked about risk to jobs the risks to the environment the National Health service. How did you what did you make of corbins remarks. Jeremy corbin quite predictably said argued that nobody on the labor benches should trust this government he said he feared a race to the bottom that has been labors position all along they are fearing the rights that at the moment are guaranteed by the European Union minimum standards that this new government when they have their own freedom to say its all the legislation that they want that they might on the cut the e. U. Particularly when it comes to workers rights also Environmental Standards so hes big message to his own m. P. s is dont trust this government if Boris Johnson indeed did get his deal through today hes most likely in my opinion also to sail through the next general election the conservatives are anyway leading in the polls already with the situation be having been so difficult for the government but theyre leading and i think Jeremy Corbyn if johnson does win the vote today and he gets breaks down as he promised by the end of october then hes really in a pole position to win the next election and jeremy called will do anything to prevent that. All rights is still though it is too close to call how the vote will ultimately play out lets assume that Boris Johnson does succeed in persuading m. P. s to back his deal does that mean were going to have greg said on october 31st no pick is before the actual deal is voted on there are a series of amendments that have to be voted on and one of the kidman ments put forward boyce all of a let win is to essentially delay. The whole. Process. All the legislative procedure has been waved through so that the century means that wouldnt happen in time for all type. 30 firsts we could see an extension and Boris Johnson would if this goes through he would be obliged to follow the bend act to ask for an extension so are no means assured that by the end of today whenever that is its all done and dusted and now barragan what could happen if m. P. s resoundingly reject Boris Johnsons deal. If they reject a deal then a socalled bennett comes into force parliamentarians here in the pas have done everything they could in order to take control of the bracks a process as much as they can and if the deal doesnt pause they forcing johnson effectively to go to the European Union and also run extension elbows johnson has always said hes not going to do that and draw the die in a ditch but if he doesnt get this deal through he will be forced to do something soon its going to be a very very interesting variance from many perspective later today. And now around who are the key parliamentarians that johnson is really depending on to make this happen he doesnt have a majority he doesnt have a majority no i think the magic numbers 320 m. P. s he needs hes well you know up until now he was well short of that he really needs the tory rebels the 21 tory rebels that he expelled sort of unceremoniously for rebelling against him the European Research group the hard line breaks his look like theyre behind but then he was so needs the those labor m. P. s who represent leave constituencies to some of them has said they will back the deal i believe 9 have said they will support it but that leaves 11 who are still undecided and hes got to hope that none of his other tory m. P. s suddenly decide oh were not happy with his soft rule and the further presentation could be that some abstain which again throws in the further spanner in the works. And now very good the main difference. Between Boris Johnson deal and theresa may is the removal of the backstop is the Northern Ireland party likely to support this change. No they do you fear which is the irish part of the Northern Irish part now that has been helping Boris Johnson and so far they feel really betrayed by this interesting. When he was talking about. How britain should guarantee peace he was talking about britain and not know the nod and when he was talking about peace on the continent of europe and the Northern Irish poets he feel that they have been basically thrown under the bus that they have a different status with this new agreement from the rest of the u. K. And this is what they always never want if they feel like union is they want to feel close to the rest of the United Kingdom and they said they were never. In london robert much here in the studio with me thanks to both of you for breaking down all the developments in the u. K. As house of commons as they parliamentarians debate the deal put forward by Prime MinisterBoris Johnson and later a vote on it. Just to recap our top story british Prime MinisterBoris Johnson has warned against delaying the u. K. s departure from the European Union saying that any further delay would be quote pointless expensive and deeply corrosive to public trust the u. K. Parliament is in session on saturday for the 1st time in 37 years to allow m. P. s to debate and vote on the new breakthrough deal agreement with the e. U. Omarion evan steen thanks for joining us.
