they did vote to leave the eu and we will leave the eu. but it must be done in a way that works for britain. and i'm confident we can do a brexit deal that puts jobs and prosperity first. that keeps our markets for goods and services and capital open, that achieves early agreement on transitional arrangements to avoid unnecessary disruption and dangerous cliff edges. what really struck me about philip hammond's speech at the mansion house was the sharp change in tone. he talked aboutjobs and prosperity in contrast to theresa may before the general election. she was much more focused on immigration and on sovereignty. the message from the public before and during the referendum campaign was clear. brexit must mean control of the number of people who come to britain from europe and that is what we will deliver. next—door neighbours but different approaches. mrs may wants to cut immigration to the tens of thousands. the chancellor is keener to promote immigration as good for the economy, a view shared by political rivals. we've said jobs an

citizens to move to another eu member state but theissue move to another eu member state but the issue really comes in relation to residence. one of the key issues at stake here is theresa may's statement shall protect the rights of eu citizens who are lawfully resident and stop this question of what counts as lawful residence is at the heart of the problematic status of eu citizens. in order to have lawful residents over a longer period eu citizens need to be workers, they need to be in employment, they need to be self—sufficient or they can be stu d e nts self—sufficient or they can be students as long as they are also self—sufficient and have something called comprehensive sickness insurance and if you don't fall into one of those categories, then your status as a legal resident looks rather uncertain. and over the last four to five years, the uk government has been reducing the conditions under which we can consider somebody to be lawfully resident, particularly if they become unemployed or face difficult financial circumstances. i think thatis financial circumstances. i thin

eu law says the rights pass to your children. eu law says it will apply to your wife. there are all sorts of people who would lose rights under this. another difficulty, who governs this. she has said british courts, they have said eu court. and this is all with reference to eu citizens in the uk, and i may be some watching right now. there are also people across europe watching on bbc world news thinking, where do we fit into this? good question. theresa may says she wants reciprocal rights, the same sorts of rights guaranteed for british people in europe. the eu has said it would be willing to guarantee full rights, the ones that eve ryo ne guarantee full rights, the ones that everyone has today, in perpetuity. the eu still has on the table an offer that is higher and offers more rights further into the future. what will this uk offer mean for uk citizens and what will the eu side say about that? we don‘t know. also, which rights? there are quite a few! the right to work, the right to health care, to a pension and social security benefits. the eu will want to look

was criticised by eu officials. european commission president jean—claude juncker called it "insufficient" and the head of the european council, donald tusk, said it was "below eu expectations and risked worsening the situation of eu citizens currently living in the uk." but mrs may described her plan as "fair and serious" and reiterated that no legal eu citizen would have to leave the uk after brexit. we'll hear what she had to say shortly — first, let's hear what donald tusk had to say about his concerns regarding the proposals: we have made our position clear. we wa nt to we have made our position clear. we want to insure full rights for eu and uk citizens after brexit. my first impression is that the uk's offer is below our expectations and that it risks worsening the situation of citizens. is that it risks worsening the situation of citizens. that will be for our negotiating teams when we haveit for our negotiating teams when we have it on paper. the prime minister responded to his comments by saying that w

no eu citizen currently in the uk lawfully will be asked to leave at the point the uk leaves the eu. we want you to stay. but labour says this should have been settled long ago. this is not a generous offer. this is confirmation the government is prepared to use people as bargaining chips. and hostility from many scottish and welsh mps in the commons to a £1 billion government deal with the democratic unionist party. my first thought in seeing it was that the government had scraped the bottom of the pork barrel in reaching it. but i have to tell him, i suspect, as he will learn in the months to come, there is probably no bottom to that particular barrel. "we want you to stay," theresa may has told eu citizens in the uk from the house of commons. she's making an offer as part of the eu negotiations which would allow families to remain together as long as they have settled in the uk for five years. those with less than that amount of residency would be allowed to stay to build it up. labour argue these moves should have been made a year ago, and that people are being used as bargainin

eu nationals living here looking for clarity, no doubt the representatives of eu citizens themselves will also be looking at this because this initial offer has been described as slightly pathetic by some of those. it is a key issue for both sides, there was a lukewarm response to theresa may's plans that she outlined at the summit last week. we heard from those on the eu side that said this was a good start, then comments that it was not sufficient. i think there is likely to be some discrepancy certainly in what the eu have put forward in terms of thinking, they want full rights, everything stays the same for both eu citizens that are currently here and british citizens that are in eu member states. certainly, the initial response to the broad outline that theresa may has set out, on the eu side, has been a little dismissive, we can hear more detail. theresa may getting up in the commons now. statement on last week 's european council and the proposals we are publishing today which on a reciprocal basis seek to give reassurance and certainty to eu citizens have made their homes and

in return the eu would have to operate in parallel dealfor eu nationals. —— offer a camp parable deal —— offer a comparable deal. a year to the day since the uk voted to leave the eu, european leaders are digesting the offer made to them by theresa may over dinner at this summit. she said she wanted no families to split because of brexit. eu citizens with five years residents would have settled status, meaning lifetime access to health, education and benefits. and there will be a grace period for new arrivals to build up enough time to qualify. the eu's prime ministers and presidents made their own proposal on this huge issue earlier this year. this is the first time they have heard the british view, and they are waiting for the small print to be published in parliament on monday. translation: theresa may made it clear today that eu citizens who have been in great britain for five years can keep their full rights. that's a good start, but of course, there are many, many other questions about brexit — about finances, about the relationship with ireland — which means we still ha

correspondent: it seems as if the eu is back on the rise. member states are expressing unity and voters have been showing their support in national elections. the economies are growing but it is just of the migration crisis where the eu has yet to agree on a common approach. british prime minister theresa may already seems like an outsider here. while the eu stance together, she is under pressure to soften her stance on brexit after her election defeat at home. may announced a new suggestion. >> today i'm going to be setting out the u.k. plans on how we propose to protect the rights of eu citizens and u.k. citizens as we leave the european union. it will also be important issues like counterterrorism. correspondent: brexit is not the priority in brussels. german chancellor angela merkel has set out her priorities clearly. talking about the future of the eu first and then about britain's withdrawal. the scale of the summit suggests just that. the leaders will talk about brexit for dessert. brent: max, brexit for dessert, i guess theresa may j

uk leave the eu. eu citizens will be able to apply for something called settled status. the right to live in the uk permanently, accessing public services and other benefits. applicants will have to have lived in britain for at least five continuous years. they will have needed to come here before a certain cut—off date which is yet to be agreed. in brussels last week, theresa may said that could be as early as march march this year. eu leaders say the deadline should be the date the uk leave is expected in 2019. the labour leader says all of this should have been sorted out a year ago. the prime minister has dragged the issue of citizens and families into the complex and delicate negotiations of our future trade relations with the european union, which she herself has been willing to say, may result in failure. this isn't a generous offer, this is confirmation the government is prepared to use people as bargaining chips. and another row brewing over who sort out any legal disputes about these citiz

and how much money it is the uk over the eu? —— how much money does the uk owe the eu? the message came from angela merkel and man u macron was that they did not see this as the forum for discussion on those proposals. the details of these proposals, and there are a lot of them, that will be laid out for the negotiating teams on monday. —— emmanuel macron. of course, theresa may has come to the summit in a weakened position. she held an election in which she lost conservative party majority government, and she is still working to put together effectively a working majority with another party within the uk. what might be the application of that? according to the european parliament's president, he believes it points towards a softer brexit. so a need for more legibility, possibly, from the uk. —— that ability. the important thing is to separate. after the separation, it is possible to discuss after that. do you feel that you know what britain's negotiating position is? because... it is not ourjob. it is a british job. it is not the european union against the uk.

the bottom line is that when the uk leads the eu we will have nothing to do withjoint eu leads the eu we will have nothing to do with joint eu military operations u nless we do with joint eu military operations unless we the uk choose to join these operations bilaterally, to say we are doing this operation, would you like some help? the uk was to be pa rt you like some help? the uk was to be part of the commons committee defence policy of the european union which means we participate in these schemes but the whole idea of an eu army which are still a long way away, the uk will not be part of that leaves the eu. up until that point we can take part if we wish but most of the military co—operation eu does tends to be on an intergovernmental basis. take it or leave it option. very little it is done by decision—makers in brussels. very good to talk to you, thank you for all that information and answering all those questions. and at 5.30 we'll be putting your questions to the shadow international trade and also climate change minister — barry gardiner. you can get in touch via twitte

ali says, what is eu status mean? regarding citizens, it means if you are a citizen of a european union country other than the uk and have been in the uk forfive union country other than the uk and have been in the uk for five years, you will be able to remain beyond brexit. eu status means if you are a member of the european country not the uk regarding what theresa may has been saying. i will get more of your questions in a minute. we will also talk about security and defence regarding the european union because those are issues which are coming up a great deal. an independent review has found that senior figures in the church of england helped to hide historical sexual abuse by a former bishop. here's our religious affairs correspondent, martin bashir. and what hurts our hearts most... charismatic and ambitious, peter ball, like his twin brother michael had been a bishop in the church of england. theirjoint achievement being heralded on national television. making spiritual noises. but in 1993, peter ball was force

remember we will only get those rights guaranteed for eu citizens if the eu guaranteed for eu citizens if the eu guaranteed uk citizens living abroad the same rights at the end of the process. although she said she wanted to give reassurance to eu citizens, some do not feel desperately reassured. a group called the proposal slightly pathetic. what labour and the liberal democrats are also saying is that ethically people are still being used as bargaining chips in this process, the serious offer that people bill—mac this process, the serious offer that people bill— mac theresa this process, the serious offer that people bill—mac theresa may should've said, i will guarantee these rights no matter what, not dependent on negotiation. the other uncertainties of course, exactly when the whole process gets underway. will it kick in at the end of the brexit process in 2019 or will it kick in at the end of the triggering of article 50? theresa may said that should be up for negotiation. on the one hand, while she was want to strengthen her negotiate had, she cannot say that she is offerin

the eu is extremely organised over brexit. what really struck me is the level of paperwork, the transparency of the documents they have produced, and the very clear timetable. the eu can only act within the powers given to it, and that means, at the moment, the commission can only negotiate on phase one issues, and phase one issues are citizens rights, the right of eu nationals in the uk and eu, issues about the border and so—called brexit fee. these will be the first things up for discussions, which start another week's time. do you get the same feeling about the negotiators for the uk? the civil service have been working very hard, but they are dependent on political leadership. and as we know, political leadership has been distracted by having a general election campaign for the last seven 01’ so election campaign for the last seven or so weeks and a degree of uncertainty about the direction of travel going forward. this is where the hard soft brexit may kick in because it depends on what kind of deal theresa may does w

the rest is up to the eu commission. as far as we can tell, they are following was that they established in the beginning. >> in brussels, thank you. sarah: it just so happens to be one year since the people in britain voted to leave the eu. the result of the referendum sent shockwaves across europe. what is the mood in britain one year on? our london correspondent gauged the reactions. >> he may look like the british foreign secretary but drew is decidedly anti-brexit. he is campaigning with others to keep written in the european union. his goal? >> have another referendum. but the question to the british people. leave one british referendum on the basis of lies told by the campaign. >> most of the people in this group, including gareth williams only got involved in the issue after last year's referendum. >> is saying we are here, we are not going away. >> the process is not over, it will be nearly another two years. >> this group of activists is hardly representative of the wider public and it hasn't been easy winning

then a guarantee of future rights for eu citizens here and uk citizens elsewhere in the eu. everyone wants to get this sorted, but the legal details are really complicated. the eu wants the european court ofjustice involved, the uk doesn't. could some new form of legal oversight be part of a compromise? and then there's the future status of the border between northern ireland and the republic — which after brexit will also be a land border between the eu and the uk. how do you keep the border as open as it is now, but have some sort of customs checks carried out? the hope is that enough progress will have been made on these issues by about october, to start talking then about the future economic relationship with the uk. the government's position is still — we leave the single market, we leave the customs union, and we end free movement of people from the eu. but has the election changed the calculation? the general election result was not what i or any conservative would have wanted. but during the course of the general election, with the conservatives and labour, we ar

to the government that they cannot deport more from non—eu countries. i'm sure it would be popular with people if more people could be kicked out. i think this is an attempt to get a cheap, poplar headline, because this cannot be the big issue when the government releases the details of what it is going to do tomorrow. —— eight popular headline. what really cou nts eight popular headline. what really counts is whether they are going to be able to satisfy the eu over whether or not these citizens will have the rights they expect when we leave the eu, and if they do not have the rights they expect and that the eu wants, then britain will not get very far with brexit talks. able may remember on thursday theresa may me tweet said that she had made a generous offer, but all we have in front of us here is a tasty headline saying we will be tough on foreign carols. that is not really the issue. —— foreign criminals. carols. that is not really the issue. -- foreign criminals. it seems unlikely we could be sure of that at this point, and also, it seems k

we need to adjust to the fact that the eu's largest financial centre will be actually leaving the eu and potentially the single market. in the small print of today's announcement, an explicit threat to force some businesses to relocate to european centres, in the interests of financial stability. one way to think about the city is like a coral reef, it's a delicate ecosystem that's grown up over centuries, lots of specialist organisms and animals living next to each other. it's very hard to replicate, very hard to build, but it doesn't mean it can't be damaged. chip a piece of the coral off and some of the animals, some of the plants that live next to it also suffer. city lobbying groups insisted this intervention was not really about managing financial risk at all. this is something for which there is no appetite amongst our members, no appetites amongst our customers, no appetite amongst european companies. nobody, literally nobody, has come to me from an economic or commercial perspective and made the case for this. so the only driver for this is a political driver, and the import
