In a week as police crack down on drug gangs operating across the uk. And two nasa astronauts make history with the first ever all female spacewalk. And at 11 30 well be taking an in depth look at the papers with our reviewers, broadcasterjohn stapleton and associate director of the institute of economic affairs, kate andrews. Stay with us for that. Good evening. Borisjohnsons brexit deal is on a knife edge tonight, with the numbers too close to call ahead of tomorrows crucial vote in the commons. He needs 320 votes to get it passed, but has only 287 conservative mps. It means he must persuade some labour rebels, ex tories, and sceptics in his own party to support him. The brexit deal would see the uk pay around £33 billion in a so called divorce bill when leaving. Eu and uk citizens would retain their residency and Social Security rights, and thered be a transition period until at least the end of 2020, during which the uk would abide by the eus laws. The whole of the uk would leave the eu customs union, but with customs checks on some goods sent from Great Britain to Northern Ireland. 0ur Political EditorLaura Kuenssberg reports. Thats not the real borisjohnson. Its a fancy dress version, a climate protester who had scaled the scaffolding around big ben. The actual Prime Minister is teetering on an even narrower edge. He has to take a leap, not knowing if hell meet victory or defeat. Weve got a deal that allows us to get out of the backstop, thats abolished, and we can do free trade agreements as one whole United Kingdom around the world. Clearly, what matters is mps coming together across the house tomorrow to get this thing done. And ijust kind of invite everybody to imagine what it could be like tomorrow evening, if we have settled this. But in order to get this deal, though, you have given some concessions, youve accepted quite a significant Customs Border between Northern Ireland and the rest of the United Kingdom. That is something you said you would never do, you said no british Prime Minister could do that. No, on the contrary, nobody wants to have checks at the Northern Irish border. So, what weve agreed with the eu is that temporarily temporarily, and by consent of the people of Northern Ireland, if theres stuff that is coming from gb into ireland, or from anywhere else in the world via Northern Ireland into ireland, then, yes, there can be checks. But that, of course. And those checks can be levied by uk authorities. But that is very far from having a tariff border. By your admission, and its there in black and white in the deal, there will be extra customs checks, and for some people, including your allies, thats just not acceptable, that puts the union at risk. No, there are no tariffs going from gb to ni. But there are extra checks. They already are, as you know. But of course it is also going to be superseded, as we come out, as i hope we do at the end of this month, as we get on to negotiate the uk eu free trade agreement. So, all these arrangements are in fact going to be obsolete once we do that big eu uk free trade deal. You hope they will be. You have made a compromise to get a bigger prize of the deal, but do you accept thats whats happened here . That you have broken a promise you made to the dup for the bigger prize of the deal . No, i dont accept that at all. Thats what they feel. Well, i think what you have is a fantastic deal for all of the uk. The deal brokered by brains in whitehall and in brussels contains concessions from the eu and the uk. It leaves the future more open between the two sides, compared to the previous agreement, and in theory gives the uk more ability to trade round the rest of the world. But it does contain what could be significant changes to how Northern Ireland fits into the jigsaw of the rest of the uk, and thats not the only reason why the Prime Minister faces an uphill struggle to get this through mps. Hello, can i give you a leaflet about schools funding . In wakefield, around 70 of people voted to leave the eu, but just like the vast majority of labour mps, mary creagh here has no intention at all of backing mrjohnsons brexit. 0bviously off to london tomorrow. 0n the deal, what do you think we should be doing . About the brexit deal . Yeah. Renegotiate. She is one of many whod rather have another referendum instead. Ill be voting against the deal tomorrow. This is not what people voted for. People have told me they want their vote back, they want to vote on this deal, its too important to be left to the politicians. Even though party bosses are trying to talk them out of it. On behalf ofjohn mcdonnell. There is a clutch of labour mps whose votes might help the deal sneak through. Ive been lobbied this morning Byjohn Mcdonnell and Jeremy Corbyn through ian lavery, the chairman, to abstain. I am 100 leaver, and they expect me, with a flick of a finger, to turn around. No, im not going to do it. Even if there is a sprinkling of labour help, number ten still tonight needs to work to make sure all of their own side are lined up. Will you be backing the Prime Minister . Some of the most resolute brexiteers may yet hold out. I am very glad that we have had such constructive discussions, nothing is concluded yet. There is a good chance this will not pass. If it does not pass, do you still say we will leave the European Union at the end of this month . I think thats much the. I do. I think we should leave the European Union. Saying i think we should is very different to saying we will. We are, let me say, we will leave the European Union on 310ctober. Not all of his colleagues are privately so sure. Leaving in two weeks might seem very plausible this time tomorrow. Ba rely plausible. But for now, every single minister has one job and one job only to get this deal over the line. Laura kuenssberg, bbc news, westminster. So tomorrow will be all about the numbers. Can the Prime Minister get enough support from across the commons to see a deal finally approved . 0ur deputy Political Editor john pienaar has been doing the maths. For all todays sweet talking and arm twisting, this deal still leaves the future relationship up for negotiation. Brexiteers want to stricke new trade deals and break clear of new eu rules and regulations. Critics fear well be worse off. But first, Boris Johnson has to get mps behind his deal that allows the uk to leave. The numbers look painfully tight and he either has to win round the dup, which looks close to impossible, or look elsewhere for votes. Why . Well, in the commons, the pm needs 320 votes to guarantee a win. The dups ten mps dont want to be blamed for a no deal brexit but they fear customs and regulatory checks on goods arriving from the british mainland could weaken the union. They wont back the deal. Most of the pms 287 tories will back it, some reluctantly. A number of rebels have been won over. Some keen tory unionists may stick with the dup. Labour will vote strongly against the brexit plan. The government denies it butJeremy Corbyn fears a tory brexit means weaker workers rights, poorer environmental safeguards, and nhs services, say, up for sale in a future trade deal. But some fear losing support unless brexit is delivered and a number will split or abstain and every vote could count. What about the independents who were thrown out the conservative party . Well, they will split too. Some will back the pm, including a few who want back into the tory fold, they want to keep their seats. Others want to stay close to the eu but they might swallow this deal in the meantime. A few who are worried about britains future after brexit may refuse. Mrjohnson can forget jo swinsons lib dems and the snp and some others, they are against brexit. There are more struggles in the pipeline, a push for another referendum, for example, and some mps will vote to guarantee a brexit extension, they will try to make sure the deal comes before they approve it and that there is no last minute attempt to back out. The governor of the bank of england mark carney has welcomed the progress made by the government on brexit. But he said that borisjohnsons current deal would hit the size of the uk economy more than the closest version negotiated by theresa may. 0ur economics editor faisal islam reports from the International Monetary fund meeting in washington. In washington, meeting the financial leaders at the imf, the bank of England Governor Mark carney says that the deal back home is a big economic positive, taking a disorderly brexit off the table. I can be absolutely clear, relative to no deal, this is materially better. Its very welcome news. Its welcome in the uk, its welcome globally. Literally globally, i heard that last night, bilaterally, in the bigger room at the g20. But thats compared to no deal. This new deal could itself lead to the return of certain customs checks, not currently required between the uk and mainland europe. Many independent economists and former chancellor Philip Hammond calculate the more distant relationship signalled by borisjohnsons deal would lead to a smaller economy. If there are extra frictions in the uk, or gb eu trade, that will mean the economy being smaller, or growing by less . We dont know exactly what would have been negotiated under Prime Minister mays deal in the end. We dont know if this deal is adopted, exactly what would be negotiated under this deal in the end. I can tell you that myjudgement would be that there is some overlap between the two. Now, if it were the deepest possible partnership under Prime Minister mays deal, there wouldnt be overlap between the two. And that last bit was diplomacy. Thats understandable. Diplomacy at a delicate moment. But the basic message from the governor here in washington is, yes, the chances of a disorderly brexit are lifting, and that is a boost, but a fundamentally more distant relationship between the uk and the eu will also have consequences for the british economy. All this comes at a time when central bankers like him are running out of firepower and there is more scope for governments to boost a precarious World Economy by borrowing more. We are in a world that has challenges, it is likely to have very low Interest Rates for a while longer yet. That creates greater opportunity for fiscal policy. It also creates opportunities for private businesses who want to take advantage, if they see where the world is going, if they see an opportunity, to borrow and invest, and growjobs. Economic turbulence in the world stretches well beyond brexit. The boost from lifting the no deal cloud is real. But its tempered by a new uncertainty about where exactly brexit is heading. Faisal islam, bbc news, in washington. Well lets get the latest on all of this now from our Political Correspondent nick eardley whos in westminster. We are hearing some lines concerning workers rights, updated on that . Big effort the government is going to continue with over the next 12 hours oi continue with over the next 12 hours or 0 continue with over the next 12 hours or so is to try and win over more labour mps. We think there are around ten who will back this deal already, the government wants more to be certain of victory tomorrow. So tonight they are offering a package to labour mps to try and entice them. It would involve pledges in legislation, in a future Withdrawal Agreement bill, on workers rights. So the idea is that if the uk or eu changed their workers rights legislation, there would be an updated parliament update in parliament from the government and mps would then be able to vote on what they want to happen next. Not completely clear whether that vote would be binding, but this is supposed to reach out to those labour mps who may be wavering, and say to them, look, there is not going to be a race to there is not going to be a race to the bottom when it comes to workers rights. Speaking to the labour leadership tonight, they are less than convinced, saying that this promise is not worth the paper its written on. Jeremy corbyn has also beenin written on. Jeremy corbyn has also been in contact with every labour mp tonight, sending them an e mail detailing why he doesnt think this deal works, adding them to vote against it tomorrow. Clearly, even at this late hour, with just over, what, 12. 5 hours to go until that debate on the government deal formally starts in Parliament Number ten is still offering incentives to mps. It sounds as if one particular man from the trg, mark francois, has agreed with the deal trg. Erg. He was one of the mps in that European Research group who was totally against theresa mays deal, never voted for it, and was still, as early as, as late, i beg your pardon, as this afternoon, not confirming he would back the Prime Minister. I spoke to him tonight, he has told his Constituency Party that he will be backing the deal in parliament tomorrow, and i think that suggests that even those brexiteers who might still have concerns over the divorce bill, over some of thejurisdiction concerns over the divorce bill, over some of the jurisdiction of the european court, other elements of how this deal might keep the uk aligned to europe on certain fronts, they are prepared to swallow some of that to get this over the line. Mr francois was saying tonight that at least this ensures it is done and it means there cannot be any more playing about with whether the uk actually leaves. Not all of the erg have confirmed that, i suspect you would find out exactly how they are voting until not finding out how they are voting until tomorrow morning, when they meet before the start of the session of parliament. But at least one of them tonight is saying, 0k, but at least one of them tonight is saying, ok, i will go with this, and that suggests that someone might follow in the morning. That suggests that someone might follow in the morninglj that suggests that someone might follow in the morning. I know you will be watching, just over 12 hours to go, thank you, and we will have full coverage of that vote, and of course all the meetings building up to it, and analysis right here on bbc news. A race against time as the Prime Minister tries to rally enough support ahead of tomorrows crucial vote on his brexit deal. And the vote tomorrow afternoon is looking extremely close. The government hopes to persuade backbench conservatives and some labour mps too. Turmoil in Barcelona Police fire rubber bullets and use tear gas at protesters angry at the jailing of catalan separatist leaders. Thereve been a Record Number of arrests across the uk this week after a crackdown on so called county lines gangs thats organised criminals who supply drugs. Violence between police and drug gangs in mexico has left at least eight people dead. It began when authorities in the city of culiacan tried to capture the son of the jailed drug baronjoaquin el chapo guzman. Members of the Sinaloa Cartel fought gun battles with police, who eventually released el chapos son to stop the violence. The countrys defence minister admitted the entire operation had been badly planned. Thereve been violent clashes with police on the streets of barcelona, as hundreds of thousands of people brought the city to a halt with mass demonstrations and a general strike. Trains were stopped and roads blocked by protesters angry about jail sentences imposed this week on catalan separatist leaders. 0ur europe correspondent Damian Grammaticas is in barcelona and has sent this report. Protesters have been setting these fires as they have been chased by police. This general strike brought the whole city to a whole, it has ended with the worst clashes we have seen ended with the worst clashes we have seen here in five days. Central barcelona. Parts of it are a battleground tonight. A full scale confrontation under way. Between police and protesters. Round after round, fired by the riot officers. In return, stones, bottles and fireworks, hurled back at them. This is now the fifth night in a row of these clashes in barcelona, and whats clear is that they are becoming worse and worse. More violent, more protesters on the streets and more response from the police as well, who tonight have used tear gas for the first time and rubber bullets as they are trying to protect the National Police headquarters which are just down here. The day began with huge columns of people, converging on barcelona from across catalonia. Some had been walking for three days to get here. A general strike had shut down the city. Now, they took over the streets. These are Pro Independence supporters, putting on a huge show of force after spain jailed on monday nine catalan leaders who tried to declare independence for the region two years ago. Its only going to stop once we achieve what we want, our changes, real changes. Not all catala ns want the region to split away. Thereve been counterprotests by those who want to stay part of spain. They have been tiny by comparison. They dont speak for the majority, because the support for independence is not the majority. This was the spark for the violence today, protesters hurling eggs and cans at Spanish Police officers. Eventually, police patience snapped. Every day this week, there
