attempt unsuccessful attempt by the british government to get a u.n. resolution about the fact that the o.p.c. doubly should now find who committed chemical warfare. convention contraventions well first of all i want to see them oppose it. because we believe that it doesn't reflect the substance of the convention and it's not only russia it's almost half of the countries of the. signatories of the convention is it not fair to find out who committed a but lation of the chemical weapons it's a fair story but this is the prerogative of the un security council and it's the switching this. video from the un security council. this which to be or p c w it's wrong movement because this will undermine their d.v.d. over the very technical organisation which is supposed to call the samples you know to make certain conclusions but the political decision who is guilty is the prerogative of the un security council and we believe that the united kingdom like a permanent member of the security council should council should work in support of the un security activity n

conclusive evidence the british ambassador to the u n karen pierre said your country has the means and the motive that seem to be critical and the foreign office say that when you when you when you speak against these an allegation you are engaging in denial distraction and disinformation. i think this is according misleading statement because for example i want to quote the president of czech republic who said there are certain amount of so-called novi joke was produced in czech republic and if you read the german press you will find that most of the lips in europe a capable of producing chemical weapons in the small quantities so basically the major argument of the british government that only russia is capable of producing this kind of poisons is. simply is not correct but you would see we have a drug here in britain because otherwise we wouldn't have it retested again it's true that's exactly what we're talking you know concerning in connection with the porton lab but they're denying that right but porton down in fairness to the laboratory said they're continuing to refuse to blame

and the british trawlers moved in. french fishermen have been having to watch them without being able to join them. translation: they have no hours, no quotas, they just fill their boats, they come, scrape and leave. they start working a month before us and they leave us the crumbs. this was some of the handful of british scholar dres=:: —— this was some of the handful of british scholar dres=== —— dredgers arriving. dredging is a highly controversial method of fishing. they are fishing legally. we are talking to the french authorities to make sure that there are no repeat of the scenes that we saw. dredging isa of the scenes that we saw. dredging is a highly controversial method of fishing. conservationists say it destroys the whole of the seabed. scallops reproduce in the summer and this is why french fishermen say they should not be harvested until the first of october, it is a question of sustainability. but this side of the channel the view is that there is more than enough to go around. we believe that th

but will brussels agree on british terms? lots of goodwill from the eu's chief negotiator today but that didn't mean letting the uk pick and choose terms of trade. translation: there would be no la ca rte translation: there would be no la carte menu for britain although the uk could still have a closer relationship than any other non—eu state, he said. but the truth is, the government has no wiggle room. anymore concessions to brussels and the number of eurosceptic tory rebels will grow. parliament may well vote down any deal anyway. there is still no sign of an agreed plan to avoid a hard irish border and without one, a no deal brexit becomes more likely. plans for the future after brexit are still a work in progress, just months before britain peels off and goes its own way. john pienaar, bbc news, westminster. theresa may has arrived in nigeria on the second day of her trade mission — to boost ties with africa after brexit. the prime minister discussed security, trade and people trafficking with president muhammadu buh

both british and americans called that an opportunistic strategy. the united states drawn into the war from isolationist view of the world had 3 goals, we wanted to win in europe, pivot defeat of japan and come home. now, that was why the united states favored crossing the english channel and crossing north western europe and into german and they called the strategy, the goal of the strategy was achieving direct military result which is how they contrast as the british strategy to fdr, suddenly promo -- prominently, the world view, politics was changing and adapting to how they saw the national security needs of the united states and post world war and they were begin to go -- beginning to accept and adjust to that so that by november, third goal coming home was going to get dropped and they embraced a long-term position of the united states as part of world security which is true for our day. going forward, the allies need today agree on a goal, they needed a strategy, they needed to concentration of force and commander. none of that had been agree

british para sony enjoyed a successful 0lympic british para sony enjoyed a successful olympic games, winning 47 medals, including gold for the likes of le simmons and ollie hind. but since then, it has not been plain sailing. some leading names retired and british swimming had to apologise athletes after a former head coach was found to have created a climate of fear. there were failings in the culture and medication within british para swimming and the lack of empathy shown to athletes. might it be guesses what was i had not created an environment where at least the accountable to comment positively about how they were feeling. that was the thing that kind of personally me hardest was i consider myself to be quite friendly and approachable but there were a number of athletes that did not feel that to come and tell me that they were feeling not comfortable with the way they were being treated. the team missed out on the world should be just last year after an earthquake in mexico city up to the european convention for the first major event for many of the british team since rio. but

to the british just understand maybe together what happened there but. we cannot talk to these groups we cannot talk to the doctors we cannot talk to the people who are in saw in soulsby i mean in general one way or another engage in the police appear ration and of course nobody is rated to talk to us in the porton down of course in this circumstance it's very difficult to understand what's going on here there are widely reported. stories by mainstream reporters who may be better connected than i am with the british secret services who say that surrogate script would never want to come to russia because he was frightened of the russian state and now we hear the team may have contributed to the famous steel dossier which donald trump has been fighting against and it's been discredited you know anything about gay script was cooperating with the former my six agent via orbitz business intelligence which was. commissioned by fusion g.p.s. . i really have no idea because. no i'm following but since i mean since the fourth of march we counted almost a hundred

the british can only go so far. at a certain point kennedy came to the conclusion that the united states had to do more. other out.elped each they help each other out was by dealing with dwight eisenhower. 1962,rry to say that by harry truman was not a factor in american politics, but dwight eisenhower was. john kennedy asked mcmillan to help him manage. he would try to get eisenhower not to attack kennedy for appeasement. of course it was in the british interest to do this because the british were far less hawkish and felt they had a man who understood them at john f. kennedy. you knew that the key west mattered. it also matters big-time in the history of angela merkel -- of anglo american relations. thank you very much. tom hambrecht is a local here in key west. we will learn some things about this island. ?re you here there he is. tom: thank you. steps slow me down a lot these days. i do work at the library. .his is what we like to think truman in key west, the magazine cover, the image it projected as the regula

the backbone of the british military power in asia had in the british indian army, which by the end of world war ii, comprised of 2.5 million people. it was said to be the largest volunteer army in the world. that army was gone. that went with india in 1947. britain had no real military power other than the navy in the pacific. and in asia. mcmillan said to the president, we don't have any troops. i know we signed this treaty, we cannot do this. there is no way. instead, mcmillan says we can offer you british moral and diplomatic support. [laughter] that is not what kennedy wanted. for all practical purposes, seato was a dead letter for the british. they never plan to say this publicly. they were going to pretend they could do something because it had a deterrent effect. the british made clear right here to kennedy, we are never going to fight for these countries. if the united states of wished to protect laos or south east asia, mcmillan said, please go ahead. we won't criticize you at the u.n., but don't expect us to help you. this is what makes this meeting important and interesting

that is in the british sector, so i think british fishermen do not throw missiles and things at the french boats fishing in our sector. and this needs to be addressed in a balanced way. i'm hoping that when we leave the common fisheries policy early next year we actually will see british fishermen able to catch a much bigger share of the quota when we operate under united nations rules so that we actually can earn a living from our own exclusive economic area rather than needing to go into other member states waters. so our fishermen then can be protected by the royal navy. it is interesting looking ahead to next year because are you confident that rules and regulations will be laid out and understood by all sides because if this is the kind of antagonism we are seeing at the moment, there is room forfurther confusion come next year? do not forget ourfishermen confusion come next year? do not forget our fishermen where they are legally and illegal fishing forget our fishermen where they are legally and illegalfishing is forget our fishermen where they are legally and illegal fishing is a v

where the british sorrows, their battles are battles. and then franklin roosevelt and his team of advisers would have to answer those questions. and so i would like to discuss with you today the two crucial plans to roosevelt and his extraordinary team devised to answer those questions. the year before the attack on pearl harbor. the priorities and goals in case the nation entered war. and this statement would be known as plan dog. the second plan was a colossal program to rescue great britain by providing with armaments. and what fdr called the arsenal of democracy. and it was called cleanly. in 1940, roosevelt defeated his excellent republican opponent, wendell wilkie. the first american president to serve a third term in the white house. but after his election he was own tired from all the campaigning in speeches. and in fact, he was so tired that many people in washington and around the country feared that he wasn't really engaged in the terrible world crisis. fortunately, roosevelt was surrounded by a brilliant team of advisers. sec

but what about the british and french? first, let's take up the british. they started from scratch, but both at home and abroad, an army was growing. for not only had britain eclared war -- canada, australia, new zealand, south africa. he whole commonwealth of nations was determined against hitlerism. britain had one weapon that was ready, the royal navy. shortly after war was declared, it had swept german shipping from the high seas. and units from the british fleet were deployed at suez, malta, gibraltar, in the channel, and in the north sea, blockading germany. world conquest was impossible without running smack up against the rock called britain. how to strike against the little island? that was the question. between britain and germany tood not only perhaps, but norway, belgium, sweden. the peoples of these countries ere hard-working and free. they knew they were in the middle and they feared a violation of their neutrality. hitler knew this. he also know if they united ith the allies, they would orm a solid democratic wall against nazi aggression. be

the british government is taking it seriously, the british amba55ador has rai5e seriously, the british amba55ador has raise concerns in paris. georgiou i5 has raise concerns in paris. georgiou is therefore have words with his counterpart tomorrow, represented of the fishing fleet on both sides are talking and hoping to arrange a meeting. the impression i get is that both sides want to try and de—escalate this and calm things down. i think there is a hope that maybe the old deal that lasted for the last five years can be revived in some way. e55entially, taking the big british trawler5 out of the area, in return to giving them fi5hing areas elsewhere. area, in return to giving them fishing areas elsewhere. and brexit, doe5 fishing areas elsewhere. and brexit, does it change things? britain if leave the european union will leave the common fisheries. there are some french fishermen that hope it means british fishermen won't be able to come to bay of seine. but it is more competitive than that. after brexit an independent uk is almost certainly going to negotiate 5ome kind of deal with

that's how they did the british strategy. their word view, both the military people in the diplomats and politicians were changing to how they saw the national security needs in the united states and at the post war world. they were beginning to accept and adapt to that. by november, coming home is going to get dropped. they embraced a long-term position the united states as part of world security which is true to the day. going forward for victory, in europe the allies needed to agree on a goal. they needed strategies for reaching it, they needed the concentration of forces to implement it. they needed a supreme commander. was 1943 none of that have been agreed. so come in the wings but moving closer and closer to share the stage with a strategy debate was a separate issue. the rupture of american and british corporations to develop an atomic bomb. how did that come about? at the end of 1942, the americans that shut the british scientist out to do about the bond. the u.s. position was that at least outwardly that britain did

i have been with british gas 42 yea rs. i have been with british gas 42 years. ijust i have been with british gas 42 years. i just want to stay with them, purely because i don't want any hassle. so familiar? t .5 million loyal british gas customers like robert from lincolnshire, and default standard variable tariffs. and when the temperature finally kills, the bills will be going up again. we seem to just get the hike year after year, not once a year, twice three times a year. my biggest threat is the blase stop and search of saying, yes we are sorry, it will ha rd of saying, yes we are sorry, it will hard people. but they got on with it. the first entries was in may, adding £60 to the average fuel bill. 0n adding £60 to the average fuel bill. on top of the first, the price will go on top of the first, the price will 9° up on top of the first, the price will go up again by another £44, taking the average british gas bill for a dualfuel the average british gas bill for a dual fuel customer to £1205 for a year. british gas certainly isn't the only energy supp

just watch the blue boat, a 200 ton british trawler. this footage from a french boat shows it colliding with smaller vessels. british fishermen say french boats like this surrounded them and started attacking them. just a glimpse of the violent clashes off the coast of normandy in the early hours of tuesday morning. rocks and flares coming across here. right through here? yeah. there was about 50—60 boats around us in the end. do you think our navy should go with you? the only way to deal with it now is to get our navy involved and try and protect us. but the french fishermen involved are furious. french law bans them from fishing over the summer in the bay of seine. normally there is a deal where larger british boats stay away, this year, negotiations broke down and they moved in. translation: they have no hours, no quotas, they just fill their boats, they come, scrape and leave. they start working a month before us and they leave us the crumbs. dredging is a highly controversial method of fishing. conservationists say it destroys th

whether through creating new customers through british exports or opportunities for british investors, our integrated global economy means healthy african economies are good news for british people as well as for african people. thank you for bringing the rain. to that end the two countries signed a new trade agreement. theresa may sees benefits flowing both ways, using uk companies, capital and government help to invest in african countries in the hope of keeping them politically stable later on. this is about a partnership. it is no longer that colonial relationship where the master would come and give you the instructions as to what needs to be done. but we are partners here and we need to understand what is it that they need and how then do we work with britain? it's quite a key. history is present and poignant in south africa. during her brief trip theresa may visited the cell nelson mandela was held in for 18 years. mrs may also used this trip to say the uk would fundamentally shift the way it spends aid money towards building private enterprise and tackling political and econom

a former champion in the british open as well. it was a 1—under par71, a british open as well. it was a 1—under par 71, a similar story, a disappointing outward half and she was playing in the best of the conditions but came home in sa so managed to repair much of that damage. six shots off the lead. certainly not out of it but not quite the opening day she would have been looking for. just very quickly. what about this... a few players are out at, will be made to suffer for that? it will but... andy murray says his win against british number one kyle edmund is his best since his return from injury. murray won in three sets against the man who replaced him at the top of the british rankings. he'll now face romania's marius copil in the last 16 of the washington open. rhia chohan watched the match... sidelined for months after hip surgery injanuary, down to 832 in world rankings. naturally, andy murray was hoping to make a comeback in the second round at the washington open, taking on british number one kyle edmund. his countryman who beat him at eastbourne only a few months a

wasn't the only british media outlet we approached with questions we also wrote to i.t.v. and the radio station l b c neither chose to comment they've let their work speak for itself and generally journalists are relatively inhospitable to extreme fringe far right wing populist viewpoints but once those actors do force themselves onto the agenda then there's a feeding frenzy that occurs so that's how i think media and journalists specifically can produce a reality that they actually don't really want to say. with the governing conservatives divided over the opposition labor party split over the same issue and the mostly pro brackets it tabloid press still pushing its agenda british politics is already in a messy state and when the broadcast media even with the best of journalistic intentions put the likes of tommy robinson on their air so that they can grill him they find they cannot do so without giving him the exposure he craves they say the road to hell is paved with good intentions that is where britain seems to find itself today and the news media aren't just reportin

ona firms and british pensioners relies on a reciprocal dealfrom firms and british pensioners relies on a reciprocal deal from the on a reciprocal dealfrom the eu. what happens if you do not get it? secondly, you just admitting that in reality there is no such thing as no deal because you're no deal scenario planning is to forge a deal with brussels. that is not quite right. we might make deals with member states or regions of a particular country or institutions directly. i think there is good reason to think that even in a no deal scenario there will be good faith and enough cooperation on both sides. why? if you look at the example of pensioners it is hardly in the interest of southern spain to do harm to the uk pensioners out there. what you would expect and i'm confident we would see even in the unlikely outcome of no deal is cooler heads prevailing and the kind of practical cooperation that contractual issues, pensions are otherwise are followed through. there are thousands of british pensioners in the eu...” there are thousands of british pensioners in the eu... i don't thin

british gas has been overcharging customers. it's paid back £2.7 million after an investigation by ofgem, the regulator. steph has more on this. i'm trying to read slowly because i know you just have the press release. good morning. more than 94,000 customers were overcharged for switching providers. this is all to do with people who wanted to change when it came to the end of their contract. centrica, which owns british gas, said this is because of a system error but what the regulator has found, ofgem, if that customers were overcharged to the tune of £700,000. first of all, that has been paid back to customers but the other issue they found from ofgem's investigation into this is that when you come to the end of the contract, in the last 49 days, you essentially have a switching window when you can leave british gas and go to another provider without paying any exit fees. what ofgem have found is that british gas wrongly informed 2.5 million customers that they would be charged and exit say. there would be lots you would no
