a process to be halted or to be very soft bricks it and different from what reason may is saying now it s not yet on the cards however this is what many m.p. s are hoping for it could be a first step in this direction it s not yet a given fact that there be many more fights here in london over the direction of greg said that soft greg said second referendum yes or no all right our correspondent in london bigger boss bigger thank you very much. there is not much trust to go around it seems when you re talking about briggs it neither in london nor in the european union the european parliament today debated whether or not to make its recent breaks agreement with britain legally binding one of the key points of discord is the irish border now in her recent deal with the e.u. theresa may problem is that there would be no hard border between northern ireland

critically i think the the nature of the agreement that was reached last week between the british government and the european commission on how to avoid the border has somewhat narrow the room for maneuver for treason may because they will have to there will have to be regulatory alignments between northern ireland and the republic of ireland and between northern ireland and the u.k. so it kind of binds the u.k. closer to the european model of regulation this is somewhat complicated but i think this is where the focus is at the moment and when i want to pick up on the issue of the ireland the irish board in just a moment but i want to get your take on what we saw tonight in london in parliament in this vote basically a slap in the face to theresa may is her hand now significantly weakened when she returns to the negotiating table with the e.u. . i mean on the surface you would think so but she has been through so many crises

washington post, despite defense secretary jim mattis and joint chiefs of staff joseph dunford. he has until october 13th to give compliance and expected to give a speech on the 12th to announce the deal is not in american security interests. with that, let s go to london. so ali, if the president does de-certify this agreement, this doesn t mean the agreement is dead in the water t. responsibility then would fall to congress? reporter: exactly. yes. that would then trigger a period of 60 day, in which it will be up to a delicately balanced congress to decide whether to impose nuclear sanctions on iran or not. the decision to do so would almost definitely trigger a collapse of the deal and we d see a tense standoff with iran again just before the deal.
