President trump as mentally deranged. From next year banks and Building Societies will have to carry out checks on all current account holders to establish if they are in the uk illegally. A hive of information, scientists place trackers on bees to help more about their life cycle and their illnesses. A very good morning from florence. So often on this long Journey Towards brexit we talk about important announcements and perhaps use the term to loosely in the media, but there is the filling in florence today judging media, but there is the filling in florence todayjudging by the cameras around me that this is actually an important occasion. Of course, though brexit negotiations have pretty much stalled over the last six months, we are on the eve of the fourth round of negotiation and still stuck on those difficult first phase issues. What are we going to hearfrom first phase issues. What are we going to hear from theresa may today . Probably detail on two important numbers. The first number is the severance payment, the divorce payment if you will. She will say that over the course of a transition period, we will pay up to £20 billion, the uk, that is. This means, of course, that European Countries wont necessarily have to put those in, and those that receive money from the eu budget will not lose out. The second important figure is that transition, the first time the Prime Minister will have confirmed there will be this transition period up to two years, which would take is to around 2021. We are also talking probably today about the Prime Ministers ambitions for a bespoke trade deal, not a norway deal, copying the Single Market without the freedom of movement, and not a canada deal, a free Trading Association with europe. Moray bespoke deal a bespoke deal particularly for britain. And further guarantees burke eu citizens currently in the uk. A lot of detail we look for a two in this speech this afternoon. Letter from our Political Editor. Here on mainland europe, as at home, threats to theresa may work on many different corners. Before packing her bags, she had to try to get her cabinet onside. After two and a half hours, an oh so natural display look, we all smile and agree. Is philip your new best friend . You are very united . Very united. Will eu leaders like what they hear in florence . We have to wait and see. We dont have to wait for all the detail, though. The Prime Minister is expected to say for the first time explicitly that the uk will seek a transition deal that could be up to two years long, after we leave the eu. She is likely to signal, too, she might be ready to offer 20 billion euros so that no other country loses out from brexit. But after we leave, the Prime Minister will make clear again she wants a bespoke trade arrangement, not a model based on any other. Remember, in the referendum, leavers promised that we would get money back, but after a visit to number ten, this prominent eurosceptic sounds completely on board with paying, if only for a couple of years. We are leaving a big hole in their finances if we just leave, and if the European Union is going to deal constructively with us and reach a sensible agreement, then i think there are reasonable political and diplomatic reasons why we should help them. But in a transition, the eus top negotiators confirm we would have to pay and play by their rules, so there are still big uncertainties around our approach. In government circles, though, there is hope the speech can unlock the eu impasse. That is why the plans have been carefully kept under wraps. But no more secrets on this speech, on how decades of membership, ties of money, of politics, will start to be phased out. There is much still for britain to decide, though, for the eu to discuss. This is still the overture before we finally depart. We understand that ahead of this speech being delivered here in florence, the Charm Offensive has already begun. We are told by downing street the Prime Minister spoke to the European Commission president yesterday and spoke to the irish to suck to set him straight on what sort of detail. But the biggest Charm Offensive has been around the cabinet table. Deep divisions, not necessarily over the money paid but over the final destination. What kind of brexit does the uk want . Borisjohnson, who wrote that piece last weekend, and intervention we have been talking about all week. He has been running this morning ahead of the flight to florence. What does he make of the speech . Good morning. Are you disappointed that britain will be shelling out 20 billion to the eu . It was a great speech, i enjoyed it very much. Is this what britain voted for . Yes. It would appear that many brexiteers around the cabinet are sanguine about the short term payments that will be made to the European Union. Theresa may seems to have them all on board, but the payments willjust stop there, because there are other liabilities the europeans expect britain to meet, for loans they have committed two or pension payments. The pension pot is estimated at 8 billion euros but will rise over time. That was a question put to the transport secretary Chris Grayling on the bbc radio 4 today programme this morning and this is what he had to say. This speech will set out to our European Partners that much more of oui European Partners that much more of our ambition for the relationship we wa nt our ambition for the relationship we want you have for the future is there, setting up things we think should be part of the partnership in the future, and i hope it will create a vision that everyone can unite behind and move forward, and obviously there is a lot of negotiation ahead to do but i think we have a historic responsibility to people on both sides of the channel, two people and businesses who depend on our partnership and trading relationship to reach a sensible agreement for the future. We understand theresa may will invite some conservatives to her country residence of the weekend for that Charm Offensive, to continue. They will be all ears to the speech in florence this afternoon, and standing by her in a whole not so far away, her principal ministers, the chancellor Philip Hammond will be here and borisjohnson will be sitting next to him and the brexit secretary david davis. We will bring you all the details as that happens. But lets speak to tim oliver, from the London School of economics. Here in florence with me. He focuses on uk eu relationship. We are talking a bit about the payments. The short term payments and the longer term payments. Where do you think we will end up . The 20 billion being touted at the moment is the first bed from the United Kingdom government, knowing full well it will have to go higher, and theresa may will almost certainly not give a bigger today because that would be ammunition for the sceptics in the lead up to the conservative party conference. It is recognition building up for some time that a beggar will have to be put on the table to things bothered. Longer term, it will be a much higher payment, because how long britain takes to leave the European Union is not clear and will not be two years, union is not clear and will not be two yea rs, several yea rs union is not clear and will not be two years, several years longer, and are payments for pensions, and ukip meps as well. These beggars will keep rising over the next years, and thatis keep rising over the next years, and that is something theresa may needs to have. These figures will keep rising. Theresa may must coax them into accepting that there is no easy way out of this. They must they said. If we get past the logjam in the negotiation, and Start Talking. We only have a year in negotiations to talk about future trading relationships. Michael gove suggested round the cabinet table yesterday he wants a different sectors within the uk to leave at different parts through the transition. Why might that be a sensible idea . It might be sensible for the uk, but whether it is sensible for the rest of the European Union is the question michael gove should be asking. The eu is clear about this, that a british exit will be on transition terms but match its needs not necessarily the needs of the uk. The uks problem with brexit is how it is having a debate with itself about what it wants brexit to do. The transition deal, yes, for Manufacturing Industries and Financial Services industries in different phases for the uk might be good for british businesses and society, but is it good for the European Union and germany and france . That is the question britain must ask. Unless you get agreement from the European Parliament and the different Member States of the European Union, where the reasons theresa may issue today, that thinking will go nowhere. It is more myopic thinking. She says she does not want a norway style model and does not want a canadian model and want a bespoke model in the middle. Michel barnier, who was here yesterday, he negotiated as the key negotiator, and said you cant have the benefit of norway and the freedom of the candidate deal. You need one or the other. The freedom of the canada deal. When theresa may talks about a form of new relationship in the future, a special partnership as a positive special relationship with the us, she is not clear about what that will mean but neither is the eu. The eu has not worked out what new relationship it wants with the uk departed. So there is a debate to go on within the eu about where their skills. That depends upon what happens in the eurozone and what happens in the eurozone and what happens in the eurozone and what happens in beijing in region, and british politics will have to realise that from an eu perspective. Treasure map the schengen agreement. What happens there. That will shape what happens. With your uk hat on, your lse had, you can quite understand why she is dodging the issue. Only to keep europe on baba keep the cabinet on board. But on what point will she have to spell out the line . If she did it now she could see a leadership challenge but in a years time and if she is debated in parliament, that would create huge confusion. There is a lot of uncertainty still on both the british and european side on this. I think one thing both sides are now starting to prepare for is a real possibility of a hard brexit. Never mind what theresa may want the European Union wants, something will colla pse European Union wants, something will collapse in the uk negotiations, including parliament and so forth, and britain will find itself leaving the eu with no plan. The eu is starting to think about this as a plausible scenario for it. It was thing for the eu and stings certainly more for the uk, but that isa certainly more for the uk, but that is a scenario both sides are starting to think possibly about. Its things for the people behind you. These are the expats who live in florence, no vote, no voices, the banner many of them carry to protest in favour of remaining. Good to get your thoughts. Thank you very much. We will be here in florence throughout the day. We will have our experts with us in about 20 minutes time, norman smith will be here and Kevin Connolly to give us the european respect it. And we will bring you the details of the speech when it happens. 2 15pm uk temper the speech. Join us then. Pm uk time. Breaking news from the last few seconds. Transport for london has concluded that uber, the car hailing app, is not fit and proper to hold a private hire operator licence. That comes to us in the last few seconds. Uber with 3. 5 million users in london and many thousands of drivers, has been told by tf el that it is not fit and proper to hold a private hire operator licence. Our business presenterjamie private hire operator licence. Our business presenter Jamie Robertson is with us. What is behind the decision . Beginning to get an indication this would be a decision from tfl which gives the licence to uber in order to operate in london. That licence was renewed back in may, but only forfour months. It was renewed back in may, but only for four months. It comes to an end in september. They have said, no, it will not be issued. These are the reasons, a damning report on the conduct of uber. It said mexicos approaching conduct demonstrates a lack of Corporate Responsibility in relation to a number of issues, potential Public Safety and security implications. They go on to say these include. Ubers company conduct. The approach to medical certificates and enhanced its closure and barring services checks are obtained. And the approach to the use of software in london. They say that software could be used to block regulatory bodies from gaining full access to the app and provide official from undergoing. From undertaking regular trade or Law Enforcement duties. They say it is and has been obstructive and that is and has been obstructive and that is the reason why they are not going to renew this license. And there has been a lot of opposition to govern iraq from the taxi trade which has threatened there has been opposition to uber from the taxi trade. But uber can appeal, cut they . They have 21 days to appeal it and we have not yet heard from uber. You said this announcement has come out in the last few minutes, so we have not heard yet from uber what it will do and whether it will appeal. We must also look at the consequences of this on Taxi Services. There are many thousands of drivers and 3. 5 million customers. That will if the appeal does not work, one presumes there will be a hiatus after the 30th of september. It has not been made clear what will happen to the drivers or the service. But there will be a gap when those drivers will be a gap when those drivers will not be on the road. Notwithstanding the appeal and what happens there, could there be other operators in a similar vein to uber who might seize the opportunity . Undoubtedly there will be a huge gap in the market for people who want a taxi ride. One imagines that there will be people coming in and jumping in. There are other Taxi Services obviously, black cab services and so on and other minicab services, which will be jumping into on and other minicab services, which will bejumping into the gap. One imagines probably it might be leading to price rises for taxi fa res, leading to price rises for taxi fares, but also since it is a relatively free market, one imagines there will be other people filling that gap in the near future. Jamie, thank you. A line from sadiq khan, saying after this ruling on uber all companies in london must play by the rules and adhere to the high standards we expect.

North Korean Leader kimjong un has fired another rhetorical salvo at us President Donald Trump in the increasingly bitter and personal war of words between the two. Kimjong un described mr trump as mentally deranged and said he would pay dearly for his threat to totally destroy north korea. North koreas foreign minister suggested pyongyang was considering a dramatic escalation in its nuclear test programme. Translation personally i think it should be a Hydrogen Bomb test on an unprecedented scale. Lets stop to our correspondent danny savage in seoul. There was a time when rhetoric from north korea could be treated exactly as that, nothing more than angry words. But given what has been going on lately with the firing of various missiles, we cannot assume that this time, can we . Not necessarily, and i think what that foreign minister also went on to say is where they were planning to say is where they were planning to test and h bomb, hinting at some in the Pacific Ocean. That would be truly extraordinary for north korea to be testing a Nuclear Device beyond their own borders. One assumes they will deliver it by missile to. Or their plan would be to deliver i
