For writing big waves guided by instinct she is spains first line female athlete to enter the world adept at the surfing championship. Ive seen me so much going to thank you for joining us british Prime Minister theresa may heads to brussels today for a summit with the European Union chill asked them to help her south her controversial braggs a deal at home it comes one day after she survived a confidence motion brought by members of her own party unhappy with that brags that agreement im a says she will seek more sure answers from brussels on the socalled backstop designed to prevent a hard border that would divide ireland more with our correspondent in a moment but first this report. The announcement came that the majority of conservative lawmakers do have confidence in to resume a person poulters could breathe a sigh. Of relief. But not everyone could share the joy about one third of my its own party voted against the Prime Ministers critics think she should resign. Deal through. Withdrawal agreement which is not supported by many conservatives or by the opposition and. The policy it would be called. After weeks of speculation about how much support my had from within her own party enough alexis was sent to trigger a confidence vote on her leadership first of january some conservative politicians are unhappy with the brakes a deal she struck with the European Union but may warn that ousting her would only delay or even stop progress but now that may has survived a vote shes adamant that she will continue her mission we now need to get on with the job of delivering for the british people and building a Better Future for this country opposition politicians remain unconvinced that to reason most conservative government is fit to cope this is the. Party confederacy. And bringing the bitchiness to the surface over the course of europe now its its their problem but it does impact upon the nation its an absolutely crucial time for. Political survival cant stop the brigs of clock ticking its less than four months until the u. K. Is supposed to leave the e. U. As we said will be headed to brussels in a few hours for a summit with e. U. Leaders and thats where did this is a standing by hes covering that summit for us so georg what is it the theresa may will be looking for there in brussels. Other key Sticking Point for the reason making here is that backstop the guarantee the European Union seeks that there will be no hard border in Northern Ireland which is particularly interesting for the republic of ireland member state and so what she is seeking here in brussels is a legal guarantee that this backstop will only come into force if really the case of a of a hard border would be on the agenda if there is a real threat and so that the e. U. Does not use the backstop to i hold the u. K. Hostage because what she has negotiated is that the backs up essentially is not just Northern Ireland that will remain in the Customs Union in parts of the internal markets to guarantee no hard border but the whole of the u. K. So the e. U. Has made that concession the whole of the u. K. Will remain in the Customs Union parts of the internal market as a guaranteed and that is now the Consumer Concern is that the e. U. Could use that as leverage or whatever it to hold the u. K. In that position because they have a mutual interest economically and of course the u. S. Always ruled out this is only a guarantee in the worst Case Scenario what are even leaders saying about this question of the backs of today. Well first of all youve heard from a number of leaders for instance the austrian chancellor courts that he is happy that she stays in power that he is hoping for a to avoid no deal and that for the e. U. Has always been clear that no matter what will be a lose lose but they want to prevent a cliff at which would have catastrophic impacts for the u. K. But also clearly for the e. U. Now heiko mas the German Foreign minister has made clear this morning there will be no renegotiation there will be some form of a new interpretation or both the old one whatever way you want to look at it to say look we will only use this backstop as an insurance policy that will that be legally binding guarantees that this will be the case i have my doubts but there will be a new formulation so she has something through a back to london and say look they really want this backstop as a guarantee and nothing else and here you know just briefly if you can has yesterdays vote in london change the likelihood of braggs it i think it has shown the latest mess that to teresa mayes in shell get her another her twenty minutes over dinner tonight to explain that mess i think it hasnt changed essentially what it has shown however is that there is no majority in the house of commons who says no deal is better than a bad deal which then takes us to the deal itself which technically is now on the table for it to be passed through the parliament and then finally have a peoples votes or these other three options the steal peoples vote or a deadlock that continues for weeks and months and i think all right you give us here not just for us in brussels thank you karen.

During this is the second major train crash in turkey this year how safe is turkeys railway system.

The rails killing twenty four people and injuring dozens of all those theres been a lot of dispute over the circumstances of back pressure opposition accusing lack of maintenance on the tracks where the government insists that it was due to deborah the left on the track opposition are claiming that there is a problem of maintenance of the trains the government has been gauged in a massive expansion of trade including these high speed trains and this is the second fatal crash in two thousand and four involving a new high speed train over forty people were killed in one of turkeys worst train crashes so indeed there will be growing focus all the safety of tokyo trains as in many of our train accident it is expected though possibly will be a bail of secrecy imposed by the court which is customary now in major acts of a.
