constituencies in an irish parliament relevant to the whole island of ireland that's where they should be taking their seats and perhaps the leader of iraq or might like to consider the role that he must play in so facilitating them well arguably already is playing a role i mean they must realise that while it has failed singularly to unite the six counties with the land by the power vested even because government by the european union he controls the fate of bricks and he controls the fate of the united kingdom. well i think i think you should have not had any failure i mean this is a collective responsibility and a responsibility of both governments and indeed of the british government in the first instance to afford the electorate in the north of ireland a referendum to indicate their preference as to whether to remain part of the so-called united kingdom or to be reunited with the rest of the island of ireland in a new republican scenario i think that that is a very worthy consideration and more appropriate maybe even now than at any point in time and one that leo varadkar caldwell

prime minister and minister of foreign affairs discussing the role of the irish border. what the exit scenario what potentially set up a move to unite arland will having a hard border incite people to vote to leave the u.k. or maybe having no border will contribute further to actual island unity. well i think there are i think we have to see how this develops over over a period of time i think there are a number of factors that come into play i think there are not only to do with the issue of the border in an ardent i think there is also the dynamic within the united kingdom itself the question of scotland for example if the issue of scottish independence were to come back on the table again how would that play in relation to northern ireland i think also there's the future economic development the reality is is that. there is no good break such. that i don't think is going to work well for anybody so if for example there were a divergence in the economies between arland and the united kingdom were between the european union and the united kingdom i think that that's a f

john blackstone stopped in at a place that invented the irish coffee. he was looking for the secret recipe. >> reporter: with cable cars running past its door, the buena vista cafe opened in 1916 is a san francisco institution. >> i'm john. >> nice meeting you. >> reporter: and for over 40 years, it's had the same bartender whose been making the same drink that made the buena vista famous. how many irish coffees have you made in 41 years? >> they say four to five million. i just take their word for it. i didn't count 'em. >> reporter: if anyone knows the story of how irish coffee first came to america back in 1952, it's paul nolan. >> yeah, the original recipe came from ireland. the inventor gave the recipe to the beat writer of the chronicle, stan della plane. >> reporter: so stan della plane who brought irish coffee from ireland to here, he was newspaper guy. he was a reporter. >> he was a newspaper. >> reporter: so it is proper for me to say maybe a news reporter is the originator of irish coffee in america other than a bartender? >> let's say he con

of course the irish government. of course the irish government. of course the irish government is frankly worried about a no deal scenario, but that doesn't mean they would suddenly step back and unwind the withdrawal agreement again. that would be political suicide for leo varadkar, given that he is in a minority government in dublin. tony, we a lwa ys government in dublin. tony, we always appreciate your time, thank you very much, tony from our te live in brussels. from thisjulia just by the european commission to christian, live with us by the houses of parliament in westminster. i want to talk about theresa may and her personal situation, because all the way back to the election of 2017, people have been saying her situation is perilous, but here she still is and even after a day like today she is still the prime minister, she is still in power. which is because the conservative party doesn't have many options at this moment in time and you are right to flag up the fact they have tried to get rid of her before. after that disastrous election r

and the irish island was one. i think it's interesting that the ambassador made reference to today's 100th anniversary in terms of the election of the first doll because the decisions that were made after that election, the partition that occurred after that election had an awful lot to do with the environment that called forth the civil rights movement after years of one party, one religion rule, and the tolerance of all of that, you know, by the government in london not feeling that that was anything to be concerned about. that neglect, that's a nice word for it, that neglect of the basic violation of people's rights within the united kingdom supposedly a bastion of democratic society, i think that it's very important to put those things in contrast and not to let these somewhat good feelings of today on things the progress that's been made, not to see the decisions the leaders make about injustice has a long tale. and many people suffer from the failure of leadership to step up and to face these questions. whic

i have met many, many irish diplomats. the consequence now, as bruce said -- we managed to hold 27 countries together against the british. we should realize the pride that we have and the strength that we --e for the fortifier's and the forefathers and the diplomats. the economic benefits have been very similar, if you look at the 26 countries on their own. you know where the money has come from. but it is not just the economic side. ireland has changed over the time of membership of the e.u. and we have been forced to engage out, to come in with other concepts that we have maybe accepted for generations. it has been an advantage on that level as well. as well as the economic and business. out,e quicker brexit is the better. >> i got to say one more thing about that. because i think it is important to record highs this. ,hat the civil rights movement the european union, globalization, they are all part of a long process of opening out and openness, which we have benefited from enormously. to some extent, the last number of

with york position on what can be done at the irish border —— the irish governor degrees. as for as he is concerned is that it is nonsense. if you would go down as canada free—trade like there would bea canada free—trade like there would be a hard border. there will never be a hard border. there will never bea be a hard border. there will never be a hard border. there will never be a hard border, because the uk government won't build one, the irish governor won't build one, and the eu won't buy one. it is a com plete the eu won't buy one. it is a complete paper tiger. it won't happen. let us be realistic, look at what happens in the rest of the world, all borders are moving towards more automation, preclearance, the systems all exist 110w. preclearance, the systems all exist now. there is nothing new, nothing alarming... existing techniques, existing processors within existing law. that is how you sort the irish border. and of course the turnover, very important locally, is tiny. it is 4.9% of all northern ireland sales go south of the border. regular shipments on milk

i'm afraid what are you saying that the show doesn't understand irish history well i have to say that he should take note of the fact that you know this particular policy a served us well the teacher of what didn't even be in the position that he is in charge of the government at an irish parliament in dublin simply only for the fact that took that position one hundred years ago and of held fast to it interesting leader not in the course of this year a portrait of constance markovitch the first woman elected to the westminster parliament as it was all those years ago was all vamped in the houses of parliament in westminster so someone there are some people there clearly have an understanding of the history of all of that good to me corbin you're referring to there in the moment but the teacher gave your employees in westminster another option that was to resign if they don't support the resumes break that agreement. well they won't be doing that but they're very very open and ready to face the electorate again if a westminster election is to present any time in the coming weeks or mon

important part of all which is nose discourse is the phrase so at the moment eighty percent of all irish trucks use the british so-called british line card or to access continental europe thirty percent of all irish trucks end up on continental europe and eighty percent of those go via the land bridge if there's any complications in the ultimate brags that arrangement could lead to extra cost and checks delays etc etc that would be pretty catastrophic for irish business so with regard to to all that and especially the the traffic between the two islands if you will always was talk about the so-called backstop just very briefly what is the box oh ok very quickly if you can remember when the whole process began there were three key issues the identified the so-called divorce settlement the citizens' rights and the irish border the backstop is a mechanism designed to ensure that regardless of what happens at the end of the transition period december twenty twenty that there are engines in place to avoid the return of a hard border on the island violent to backstop is designed to ensure that

first stop, a meeting with the irish prime minister. the focus is on the back—up plan for avoiding a hard border on the island of ireland, the so—called backstop. my focus now is on ensuring that i can get those assurances that we need to get this deal over the line because i genuinely believe it is in the best interests of both sides, the uk and the eu, to agree a deal. but i recognise the strength of concern in the house of commons and that is what i will be putting to colleagues today. i do not expect an immediate breakthrough, but i hope we can start to work as quickly as possible on the assurances that are necessary. the eu's chief negotiator, michel barnier, is not willing to do any more negotiating. but eu leaders are considering six paragraphs of written reassurance. they will say the backstop is temporary and would only be in place for as long as needed, not forever. the eu will pledge to continue negotiating a trade deal with the uk even if the backstop comes into force. and the uk and the eu will work on more reassurances

the ultimate irish backstop issue has been the thought in the side. that is the problem. it wasn't even brought up for a long, long time, was it, as if we didn't realise the implications for the irish border. what have they been talking about? well, i think the eu... what have they been talking about? well, ithink the eu... they what have they been talking about? well, i think the eu... they have been eating too many biscuits and drinking too many cups of tea. you we re drinking too many cups of tea. you were not at the table, so you didn't... i were not at the table, so you didn't. .. i would were not at the table, so you didn't... iwould have were not at the table, so you didn't... i would have demanded all of the biscuits. you have no manners with regard to food. with regard to food. let's stay with the telegraph. paris, where am i looking, france cou nts paris, where am i looking, france counts the cost of the disastrous protest. we have seen so many people out on the streets, violence, deaths, injuries, rs, and shops... —— arrests. deaths, injuries, rs, and shops

the withdrawal agreement, including the irish backstop, is the only agreement on the table. it took over a year and a half to negotiate, it has the support of 28 governments, and it's not possible to reopen any aspect of that agreement without reopening all aspects of it. can you really improve your deal? for weeks, the chatter in this circus has been about winning the arguments but, tonight, theresa may's enemies might claim she's losing her nerve. laura kuenssberg, bbc news, westminster. as we heard theresa may will travel to brussels in the coming days to try and get assurances over the issue of the so—called backstop the guarantee on the future of the irish border. european leaders have been clear today that the deal already agreed — cannot be altered. so what kind of reaction will the prime minister get in brussels and how realistic is the prospect of the kind of change that some of her mps are demanding? our europe editor katya adler has been looking at the reaction from europe. eu leaders tonight are reflecting on their brexit options. taken by surprise by the del

eu leaders that the irish issue would be sorted out. the negotiations have been hammered out in the way that mrs maeda minded, in the way that the uk wanted. the eu now feel that they've conceded that but they will not pursue the other on the basic principle that it is enjoying. the abuses from the talks that are happening right now with doncaster and john zogbyjunker is at the same will be delivered with no fundamental changes, perhaps with more reassurance. our chief political correspondent vicki young is in central lobby for us now. tell is above this afternoon ‘s debate? this was the moment we thought we would be building up to the biggest name in an recent parliamentary history. that confidential decision by the prime minister to delay that meaningful vote m ea ns minister to delay that meaningful vote means that there is a lot of protesters out here but not much going on inside. jeremy corbyn did manage to secure this emergency debate to discuss that decision by the comic. what opposition parties are saying is that she's running

the irish times talks about what they want, they want a death, better deal, with the irish backstop sorted, may pledges to find a deal on the backstop that would satisfy the dup stop it when it comes to the dup reaction, they were at pains to say they want the eye back on the ball, the irish backstop —— the dup. something the prime minister had to do yesterday if she hadn't had the tory leadership many psychodrama was to go to dublin to talk to the overripe cut in some depth about the prospect of tweaking the deal on the backstop —— to leo varadkar. sublime confidence doesn't just take backstop —— to leo varadkar. sublime confidence doesn'tjust take place in the building behind me, it also ta kes pla ce in the building behind me, it also takes place between fine gael and thin foil, interesting move in the past 2a hours that fine gael, the partner to keep leo varadkar in power, has decided to extend the life of that supply and confidence arrangement in till 20. it looks like ireland isn't going to see a general election in the coming 12 months —— until 2020. general election

this is the latest from the irish prime minister, leo varadkar. the withdrawal agreement, including the irish backstop, is the only agreement on the table. it took over agreement on the table. it took over a yearand a agreement on the table. it took over a year and a half to negotiate, it has the support of 28 governments and it's not possible to reopen any aspect that agreement without reopening all aspects of it. victoria hewson, senior counsel at the international trade and competition unit of the institute of economic affairs joins me now. good morning, victoria. theresa may meeting with angela merkel and other leaders in europe and brussels, give us leaders in europe and brussels, give us your take on if there is any wiggle room on this issue.” us your take on if there is any wiggle room on this issue. i think the words being used, both by the prime minister and by the european leaders are very revealing. they're talking about clarifications. they're talking about assistance with ratification. they've been very clear that they're not counte

that's the irish finance minister. under armour has just held its investor day with a new growth plan. let's just over to scarlet fu. scarlet: kevin plank is chairman and ceo and founder of under armour. patrick risk is -- patrick frist is coo and president. you laid out your long-term growth plan. the reception from the market not too kind. the market down for a fifth day. to help frustrated are you by the reaction -- how frustrated are you by the reaction? all you can ever do is just lay out the plan. tell them where you are. tell them where you are going. chance to talk to over 100 institutional investors and really lay out a strategy. we had more than 20 tickets that were able to express what we are doing from a product and innovation standpoint. our transformation has been complete. it has been strategic. it has been structural. it has been cultural. we can't predict the market. we gave up on doing that a long time. we've got great confidence in the direction that we showed you we told investors about that yesterd

while the agreement contains the irish protocol, a number of mps are unhappy. it seems clear that if we're to get an agreement to restore in an orderly way, the only way is to stick with the future agreement that the finest hats. it's the talk of a reassurances and changes, i don't need to tell you, my toddler collies don't want any mention of this backstop. they want it taken out altogether. they are not after reassurances. of all the guesswork or not? both sides are agreed on one thing, that is we should not return to the hard border of insult between the republic of ireland and moral island, given the history of the problems there. both sides agree with that. it's a question of how we can guarantee that will happen. that's what the prime minister has taken away. she has said that she has integrity of the house of commons as having a clear view. if we don't get a little argument, it doesn't matter which model we look at. we would not be able to get any of them without the use, unless we get that withdrawal agreement. that agreement has to have some reassuranc

further dividing the irish be enough to stall breaks or do completely. gilmore a former irish deputy prime minister and minister for foreign affairs and trade welcome to the show it's great to have you with us today lots to talk about so the border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland has become a key issue in rexx it united kingdom seemingly has to choose between staying in the customs union with the e.u. or putting up a hard border. slating northern ireland are this really the only choice is is there a third option that could work. no i think that i think that summer summarizes that really the agreement that was made twenty years ago between our london the united kingdom the good friday agreement which provided for the settlement of the conflict in northern ireland regulates all the relations between the main relations between our land and the united kingdom and arising from that both the irish government and the u.k. government and indeed all of the political parties in northern ireland and in the south of ireland all do not want to se

the irish would save time and void? the irish would save time and time again this is an all—weather insurance policy. if you put a time limit on it, it is an insurance policy until that time comes and goes. they have made it very clear that there cannot be any compromise. any situation that they allow in a future where a hard border returns to our island. britain has signed up to those commitments so it is very hard to see how you could constrain it or we can it like that. thank you for your insight. it is an incredibly complicated position and it will not be an easy form of words that will appease the mps back at westminster and also to ensure that ireland is happy and the eu 27 are happy because their ultimate concern is for ireland and to ensure there is no infrastructure, no hardboard on the island of ireland. this is one really for lawyers. this is one really for lawyers. the supreme court has ruled that parts of the scottish government's brexit bill are outside the powers of the scottish government. here's our c

greenman with the irish government sustained by referendums on both sides of the border with a number ancient home which no one has been consulted and ruthlessly on the minds of sovereign rights in those circumstances i'm mindful of the fact that my rifle friend faces many difficulties here which are not of making surely we should go back to the public. and put the rule. of remaining in the you here. i say to my russian honorable and learned friend this question i think every member of this house who has raised this issue of going back to the public on this matter needs to consider very carefully the impact that that would have here i believe i believe it would i believe it would lead to a significant loss of faith in our democracy i believe it would be it would lead many people many people to question the role of this house and the role of members within this house we gave people the decision the people decided we should deliver on it you think. nothing has changed in the level of parliamentary concern about her deal since last week but the prime minister has still sent her ministers

it was the irish instrumental a p pa re ntly it was the irish instrumental apparently in cutting out off the final conclusions of this summit pa rt final conclusions of this summit part of the draft that was saying the eu was ready to look at whether there could be more assurances on there could be more assurances on the backstop issue. the irish had that bit cutout final conclusions. the austrian chancellor sebastian kurz gave a more friendly tone, saying the eu is ready to give assurances to the uk over the withdrawal agreement. the european union and that was no surprise for theresa may, made once again clear that we will not open the withdrawal agreement again. but, of course, we have a strong interest to make clear how the future relationship should be and also what the backstop means and the backstop is an idea for a short period of time and not for the next decades. i think it was necessary to say this clearly from the european union, so that the uk can trust us on this. the cabinet office minister david lidington has defended theresa may's handling of the talks in brussels, a

to returned to the commons try and say there could be progress on the irish border. had to go further. we never wanted to use this backstop. the prime minister has run down the clock, trying to maneuver parliament in a choice between her deal or no deal. >> the european union are cliningging to this agreement. they know they have concessions which will allow them to extract even more concessions from the u.k. government. puttingnd ourselves party before country. we have a prime minister putting her own interests above party and country. westminster watches can remember that it was the most bitter four months in p arliament. brexiteers and their oppenents are further apart than ever? >> it positions that way. positions seem certainly entrenched. letters of no confidence went against the prime minister. it looks like she has supporters. but her opponents are out to get her. that is driving the wings of the party apart. for observers are looking any hint that labor is going to shift its position. there is still the general election. all options are on the table. >> parl

i also recollect the irish foreign minister saying that there is absolutely no way the irish government agrees with your position on what could be achieved with technical facilities at the border. as for as he's concerned it is nonsense. and if you would go down as canada free—trade like there would be a hard border. there will never be a hard border, because the uk government won't build one, the irish government won't build one, and the eu won't buy one. so can we just forget the hard border? it is a complete paper tiger. it won't happen. let's be realistic, look at what happens in the rest of the world, all borders are moving towards more automation, preclearance, the systems all exist now. there is nothing new, nothing alarming... why do you think... existing techniques, existing processors within existing law. that is how you sort the irish border. and of course the turnover, very important locally, is tiny. it's 4.9% of all northern ireland sales go south of the border. 0.2% or uk gdp. regular shipments on milk, of livestock, ithink 16,000 border crossings of guinness, these are

the irish for me it's a foreign part and i also cardillac it and got the largest food ever as here when people when i stood for actions in sand that i'm going to stand sampai i'm not going to take my seat and all of our m.p.'s who got a lack of told out to all of our constituents the news of the west with constituents knew that you would ever. employ a strategy that would hurt or damage the cause of irish unity in effect this is as i said to the people who will deliver unity as a people and that's where it's going to come from i mean. probably will make a big difference and westminster anyway but the point is my constituents turned her back on westminster they said they didn't want me to go to westminster because they say what we did matter how do we want to live i sort of united ireland because we are fighting for united and and that's exactly where we are and exactly we will deliver that ok well i think juries are made to be confident that your policy will . maybe that something you just would agree on but then looking to the future what will you do with the european union to fight ne

i met many irish diplomats. the consequence now, we managed to hold 27 countries together against the british. realize the pride that for the diplomats. benefits have been look at the if you counties on their own. you know where the money has come from. it is not just the economic. ireland has changed over the of the eu. and we have been forced to in with othere concepts. been an advantage on that level as well. -- brexit, thet better. >> one more thing. i think it is important to recognize areas the civil rights unit -- movement. processl part of a long of openness, which we have benefited from. to some extent, the last number of years has seen a reaction project oft 50 year opening out and embracing change and so on. brexit is part of that reaction because brexit is an exercise. it is a narrowing. closing things down rather than opening up because opening up has come to be seen as risky and unpopular. it happens in some parts of europe where you have seen the trend. you can see prime minister's questions live

they trounce the fighting irish 30-3 the final. florida and michigan in the peach bowl, gators quarterback felipe franks, he rushed for 74 yards, including this 20-yard touchdown run. that was in the second quarter. florida led by three at the half, but michigan had four starters skip the game to prepare for the nfl draft. it showed. gardener johnson picked up shea patterson twice in the second half. that was pick number one. franks followed it up with a 5-yard t.d. pass. yeah, not impressing michigan fans. especially when he added a 53-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. florida claims peach bowl victory in a rout, 41-15 the final there. >>> arkansas state, nevada in the arizona bowl, 59 minutes in, and the wolf pack finally reach the end zone. devontae lee drove it out from a yard out. nevada took a 2-7 lead. he nailed this 32-yarder to send the game to overtime. groupie added a 24-yard field goal in o.t. so nevada needed a touchdown to win. they get it. 11 yards to reagan roberson. nevada wins arizona bowl ta aut inconsisi

first stop, a meeting with the irish prime minister. the focus is on the back—up plan for avoiding a hard border on the island of ireland, the so—called backstop. my focus now is on ensuring that i can get those assurances that we need to get this deal over the line because i genuinely believe it is in the best interests of both sides, the uk and the eu, to agree a deal. but i recognise the strength of concern in the house of commons and that is what i will be putting to colleagues today. i do not expect an immediate breakthrough, but i hope we can start to work as quickly as possible on the assurances that are necessary. the eu's chief negotiator, michel barnier, is not willing to do any more negotiating. but eu leaders are considering six paragraphs of written reassurance. they will say the backstop is temporary and would only be in place for as long as needed, not forever. the eu will pledge to continue negotiating a trade deal with the uk even if the backstop comes into force. and the uk and the eu will work on more reassurances

so, because keeping the irish border is something they should want to keep open. she hasn't managed to persuade them. there are too many hard brexit conservative mps who don't really care about the irish border. they say we can deal with a hard order, we can manage it. nobody will notice. but her problem is she cannot persuade labour mps to support because she needs labour opposed to get this through and so far she's made absolutely no headway in persuading them to back the government. i want to pick up on that in a moment, but let's stay with labour. this is a very unusual situation where a prime minister could find her prospects dependent on the support of the opposition party when her own party desert her. it has happened before but it's pretty unusual. on big votes it happens quite often, the iraq vote for example. of the labour backbencher deserted tony blair on that but he was covered because he has support from the conservatives. he had lots of ministerial people as well. and we went into europe in the first baseman 1970s, ted heath 2000 with labour votes.

resume and the future of the british government now in the hands of dublin joining me now from the irish capital is t.d. for calvin monaghan and former shin fein doyle leader david ok on cave on welcome back to going underground so to be overawed saying it's your westminster m.p.'s that should be taking up their seats to vote try to raise a maze of bricks that deal that's the that's the big issue and. well it's a bit ironic that he would be so commenting in the week that we celebrate the major irish electoral success of nineteen eighteen when you shouldn't fan having swept the boards across this island took the very historic and courageous decision to set up an irish parliament here in dublin which met next month one hundred years the goal on an up stench and basis from westminster and that has been our party policy ever since so you know it's all very well to celebrate and raise a toast to the likes of constance markovitch but you know the people today who represent chin fan those who were elected as m.p.'s north of the border word elected on one abstention this mandate and that is the

it is not possible to renegotiate the irish border backstop, stating it was the prime minister's own redlines that made the backstop necessary. so can the prime minister be clear. is she now ready to draw further redlines in order to make progress? mr. speaker, can be prime minister confirm that the deal presented to this house is not off the table? but will be we presented -- represented with a fear of assurances? bringing back the same botched deal either next week or in january, and ken should be clear on the timing, will not change its fundamental flaws and deeply held objections right across this house, which go far wider than the backstop alone. mr. speaker, this is a bad deal for britain, a bad deal for our economy, and a bad deal for our democracy.our country deserves better than this . deal damages our economy, and is not just the opposition saying that. the government's own analysis shows this deal would make us worse off. if the prime minister cannot be clear that she can and will agree a negotiated deal, she must make way.

claims that no one on either side of the irish border wants brags that. i think we don't want to see any border certainly not on the island of ireland and not in the irish sea either the majority here in the north of ireland forty two are in me and it is absolute democratic discreetness to force us to accept the european union if we accept on the terms that the black city years of the d p s's mina's allies wish then it will mean a return to a hard border it will mean the diminishing the owner may not the be trade agreement which of course is the underpins our peace process and it will mean that the jobs will be lost investment will be lost we will jeopardize the progress that we have me in terms of our peace progress on in terms of reconciliation over twenty years so for all reasons we're against borders we don't believe that backstop special status for the north of ireland which is can t. and that the agreement we don't believe that will lead to a hard border and the r.e.c. the constitutional issue and released united out will be decided on another day.

speaking earlier in the day, the irish prime minister leo varadkar said the european union is as one on the need for a border backstop in the withdrawal agreement. i'm very satisfied with the conclusions that we reached last night, which are that we, as the european union, stand by the withdrawal agreement that was negotiated. we don't believe it's up for renegotiation. we are very keen to begin, as soon as it's ratified, talks on the future relationship, because we want to have a close future relationship with the united kingdom. as europe, we reaffirmed our commitment to the need for a backstop. notjust because it protects ireland and ensures there is no hard border between northern ireland and ireland, thus protecting the peace process and the good friday agreement, but also because it's a european issue, too, and an open border between northern ireland and ireland cannot become a back door to the single market. and that's why european countries also very strongly support the backstop. notjust an irish issue, very much a european issue, as well, and by resolving it in the withdraw
