Years debating over brexit in parliament. There will be crucial votes again tonight but if mps reject a proposal to speed the withdrawal bill through the commons by thursday borisjohnsons deal is unlikely to be passed by the october 31st deadline. Im joanna gosling, the other stories developing this morning on bbc newsroom live. Northamptonshire police are to travel to the us to question under caution the american diplomats wife who fled the uk after being involved in a fatal car crash. Abortion has been decriminalised in Northern Ireland and same sex marriage has been legalised after westminster voted for the changes in july. Canadas Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, wins a second term in office but loses his majority in parliament and will need support from smaller parties to carry on governing. Good morning to you. Welcome to westminster where borisjohnson will urge mps to back his brexit deal, as he launches a final bid to get the uk to leave the eu by the end of the month. Today he will try to push through legislation needed to implement his brexit deal. Hes hoping to persuade mps to approve the bill which runs to more than 100 pages in just three days. Ministers believe they can win backing for the legislation in principle, but their plans could be scuppered by a vote on the timetable this evening. Many mps argue that theyre not being given enough time to scrutinise the small print. We have got this report first of all. The governments new plan to deliver brexit next week. 110 pages. Legislation which, if it passes, will pave the way for the uk to leave the eu. Ahead of todays debate, the Prime Minister said, i Hope Parliament votes to take back control for itself and the british people and the country can start to focus on the cost of living, the nhs and conserving our environment. The public doesnt want any more delays and neither do other european leaders and neither do i. But opposition parties are angry. They think the government is moving too fast by proposing to give mps just three days to scrutinise the bill. At every stage, mr speaker, the government has been running scared of this house and democracy and its now attempting to force through a flawed brexit deal which sells out peoples jobs, rights and our communities. Mps will vote later on the basic ideas in the legislation. If they give the green light, they will then vote on the governments timetable. If ministers lose, it will be a big blow. But if mps agree, line by line scrutiny begins. The next few days wont be plain sailing because opposition parties are going to try and change the legislation to include things like a closer relationship with the eu and a second referendum on whether we leave at all, either of which would throw borisjohnsons plans into disarray. Things at westminster have been far from straightforward recently. The next few days will have some twists and turns, too. Im joined by our assistant Political Editor norman smith. Norman, hello to you. It is today really the final chance for Boris Johnson to try and get his deal through before the october 31st deadline . It could be. Although borisjohnson looks to deadline . It could be. Although Boris Johnson looks to win the big symbolic vote. That is quite an achievement if you think where theresa may was going down to those defeats. He has managed to put together a majority to broadly support his deal and he has got a deal for brussels. That is a significant turnaround. The problem he has got now and it sounds technical is whether he can get parliament to approve his timetable to get the legislation through the commons in time for the deadline of october 31. They are it is looking a little nip and tack. The reason it matters is because if mps refused to go through with his three day deadline for the comments to approve this huge 110 page bill, then he is never going to make it by october the 31st. So he has to break as do ordie the 31st. So he has to break as do or die pledge. The other thing the 31st. So he has to break as do or die pledge. The otherthing is the 31st. So he has to break as do or die pledge. The other thing is if mps cut it raff with the motion, that means it will be cut off raff in the details of the legislation. Signs are it will be very close but labour set to vote against the motion certainly according to Emily Thornberry. The idea that we are going to be bounced, as a country, out of the European Union in a period of a few days, without politicians being given the chance to look carefully at the basis on which we are making this decision, is wrong. So, of course, we dont agree with this. This is an artificial timetable, the 31st of october, and we dont see why we should play Boris Johnsons game. It sounds like you wont be supporting it, based on what you said there, then . I dont want to pre empt. I mean, i came on to talk about harry dunn, im sorry, i. We are going to have the shadow cabinet later on today and we will make those decisions, but i can tell you, you know, the conversations weve had so far, we are outraged at the way in which the government are behaving. Norman, i guess some people will say with regards to this timetable, but mps have had three years or more to talk about the broad principles. So why are they saying three days will not be enough to scrutinise the detail . Some people think it is a nonsense to get your head around 100 and ten page bill. You would need to be illegal mastermind to understand it never mind tabling amendments by seven oclock tonight. There is a lot of gamesmanship involved here. There are many mps who would like to scupper brexit and they are looking at ways of tabling amendments which will mean Boris Johnson at ways of tabling amendments which will mean borisjohnson will say, i am not going to put up with that and he pulls this whole legislation or tabling amendments which force them to go back to brussels and renegotiate and brussels the, no, we are not going to give you another deal. What is interesting, i think, is the Smoke Signals emerging from number ten is that they will not accept any amendments. In other words, they say if you amend this mill, we are not going to go ahead with the legislation. Why . Because at the back of borisjohnsons mind he thinks he can still edge towards a general election. So i suspect he may well Face Parliament with a blunt choice which is back my bill, back my timetable, do it my way or i will pull the bill. Listen to the housing minister who seems to suggest they will make this bill very much non negotiable, take it or leave it. We dont want to compromise the integrity of the deal that we have negotiated with the eu. This is a good deal, it is a win win for the uk. Forgive me for interrupting. I am just trying to be clear, if you do have it amended in a way that you find unsatisfactory, pull the whole thing rather than let Parliament Come up with another option. That will be a decision for the Prime Minister but we are not going to compromise on this deal because it is a good deal, it delivers on the outcome of the referendum and it is the only deal that is out there, a deal that both the eu and the uk consider a good one that can take the whole of europe forwards. If borisjohnson if Boris Johnson decides if borisjohnson decides to pull this bill as a result of what happens today, it will be an admission effectively that he has run out of road in parliament and therefore his next best option, he reckons would be a general election. Ido reckons would be a general election. I do not think he thinks he is in a bad place. Because if the commons a pproves bad place. Because if the commons approves this timetable motion. He will take this as a sign as they can deliver at their october 31 deadline. That would become an achievement. If the motion is blocked, i think you will try to go to the country. That is still how do you get a general election. He will say that parliament to stop me from getting a site on october the 31st calculating that that is a message that will go down well with the electoral. There has been business in strasbourg as well. The European Parliament meeting they are. We heard from the president of the European Commission who were sounding tired and frustrated, saying that it pained him to spend so saying that it pained him to spend so much of his mandate talking about brexit. He did say it was not possible or imaginable that strasbourg would ratify any deal before parliament did. The president of the European Council has been a very has been very openly talking about his sorrow that the uk might leave the eu. To applause he said that i no deal brexit would never be a decision made by the European Parliament. Over in strasbourg the president of the eu council, on the councils side, we have just finalised the necessary steps for the eu. And the legal texts are now with you. The European Parliament has a role to play and it is an important one. The situation is quite complex following events over the weekend in the uk and the british request for an extension of the article 50 process. I am consulting the leaders on how to react and we will decide in the coming days. It is obvious that the result of this conversation it is obvious that the result of these consultations also very much depend on what the British Parliament decides or doesnt decide. We should be ready for every scenario. But one thing must be clear, as i said to Prime Ministerjohnson on saturday, a no deal brexit will never be our decision. Im joined now by the labour mp, phil wilson. As in the kyle wilson referendum amendment, you will be tabling that amendment, you will be tabling that amendment again today . Exactly. The purpose behind the amendment, it is a compromise. We will now facilitate the passage of this bill through parliament, we will vote for it as long as it goes back to the people for a complimentary ballot so they can compare brexit, how it is today, with what we were promised 3. 5 years ago. If the Prime Minister is looking for a democratic event in the future that is the one he should aim for. Then we can find out whether people want to go through this form of brexit or they want to change. You are saying we will vote for this spell but there has got to bea for this spell but there has got to be a second referendum attached . There has got to be a ballot attached to this so people can have the final say on whether they want to go ahead with this. They can see what the facts are, the ones that we re what the facts are, the ones that were not there in 3. 5 years ago. This decision is not for five years further period of the new parliament, this is a decision that will be taken to affect a whole generation, a0 years into the future. People have a right to have a final say on this. Not to compare this to a game in our late sense it all, but it feels like a huge legal and political chess game at the moment. Borisjohnson and political chess game at the moment. Boris johnson is and political chess game at the moment. Borisjohnson is making one more big push to exert maximum political pressure saying that if it comes to it, he may take this deal com pletely comes to it, he may take this deal completely off the table. You are doing the same with the second referendum, arent you . We will let and help it get through parliament. So the british people can confirm. But he has not given you any indication that he is prepared to listen to that. This would be a decision i would think for parliament and it would be interesting to hear what they have to say once they debate it tomorrow. If he was to give you a hearing on that and advise either directly mps via the whips that he would accept this as a price as he might see it to get this bill through, surely that would hold a considerable amount of sway . It is. We want to make sure that we bring this to an end. Everybody is sick of it, everybody in the country. We need to bring this to an end. But it should not just be mps bring this to an end. But it should notjust be mps who make the final decision on theirs. I think the people should be involved in this as well. A lot of your fellow mps are saying there is not enough time to scrutinise this 110 page bill in the next three days by the end of business on thursday. If you you are saying if there was a referendum attached are using. I do not know if we can achieve that in three days but we need to scrutinise over time so we can but we need to scrutinise over time so we can have a look at the 110 pages, the 30 clauses that are in there, all the schedules. People might think there are not a lot of clauses but there will be Big Decisions made when that bill is passed, if it indeed is past. Thank you for your time. We will be back in westminster very soon. In the meantime, lets go back tojoanna in the studio. The headlines on bbc news.

Northamptonshire police say they havent given up in their attempt to investigate an American Woman who left the uk after being involved in a fatal road crash. Harry dunn a 19 year old motorcyclist was killed in august. The suspect, Anne Sacoolas, travelled back to america after claiming diplomatic immunity. In sometimes combative exchanges, chief Constable Nick adderly defended the forces handling of the case so far. It of the case so far. Is right and you have probably heard it is right and you have probably heard in the commons last night, Northamptonshire Police were asked not to inform the family for a couple of days so they could understand what the next steps were. For the Foreign Office to understand what the next legal steps are regarding this case, they asked Northamptonshire Police not to inform the family for a couple of days. It is a decision i support and also a decision when taking this into account that harrys funeral was on the wednesdayjust a day after. Given that harrys funeral was due the day after and the fact that the Foreign Office wanted to provide the family with more detail and information, that is a decision i support. Lets get more from our correspondent Charlotte Gallagher. He gave detail on the chronology from the crash. This follows a great deal of unhappiness from harry dunns family. They discovered before the police told them that the suspect had left the uk. The chief co nsta ble suspect had left the uk. The chief constable went through the entire timeline of what happened after harry dunn was killed. He said the family were very upset that they we re family were very upset that they were not told straightaway that Anne Sacoolas had left the uk. The cheese co nsta ble sacoolas had left the uk. The cheese constable said that it was five days later when the family first became aware that Anne Sacoolas had fled the uk. Aware that Anne Sacoolas had fled the uk. Chief constable. He said it was ten days before they had a proper sit down meeting with the family andi proper sit down meeting with the family and i think that is what the family and i think that is what the family was so upset about, they did not get official word from the police and a few days later. One of the messages he wanted to get across was defending his firsts record. Northamptonshire police has come under a lot of pressure and a lot of criticism over this case because Anne Sacoolas fled the country. They said that once she had said she had diplomatic immunity they had applied for it to get waived. They could not speak to her until a decision had been reached and that was rejected. He said his force would not be pressured by any government either here in the uk are over in america in regards to this case and he said no interventions had happened from ministers or anything like this and he said the investigation would continue. Obviously it frustrates the fact that Anne Sacoolas is not in britain, she is in america. We had that Anne Sacoolas herself has been requested to be interviewed by police in america. The question harry dunns family are asking is when she is coming back to the uk. She has not said that. His family is very upset. Charlotte spoke this morning that she felt she had been lied to by the british government, the American Government and the police. We do not know how these c
