Britain on course to leave the European Union

:00:00.:00:09.

The Prime Minister says the process will begin

:00:10.:00:16.

by the end of March next year, its goal a fully

:00:17.:00:18.

The authority of EU law in Britain will end.

:00:19.:00:24.

We'll be looking at how EU law will be separated from ours

:00:25.:00:31.

and at the signals from Mrs May on our future trade with Europe.

:00:32.:00:34.

questions for Donald Trump over whether he avoided paying taxes.

:00:35.:00:42.

How cases of Type 2 diabetes in children have

:00:43.:00:45.

doubled in a decade - with obesity a big contributor.

:00:46.:00:48.

And down to the wire as Europe's Ryder Cup team look

:00:49.:00:51.

Formal negotiations over Britain's withdrawal from the European Union

:00:52.:01:18.

will begin before the end of March next year,

:01:19.:01:20.

with the UK's exit from the EU expected in the Spring

:01:21.:01:23.

The announcement was made by the Prime Minister Theresa May

:01:24.:01:31.

in Birmingham, where the Conservative Party has gathered

:01:32.:01:33.

Mrs May says her plans put Britain on the way to becoming a "fully

:01:34.:01:38.

From Birmingham, our Political Editor, Laura

:01:39.:01:42.

The Prime Minister, who says she wants to

:01:43.:01:54.

But like it or not, Theresa May's biggest job will

:01:55.:02:01.

And she revealed the legal niceties - or

:02:02.:02:16.

And the people gave their answer with emphatic clarity.

:02:17.:02:24.

So now it is up to the Government not to question, quibble

:02:25.:02:27.

or backslide on what we have been instructed to do,

:02:28.:02:29.

There will be no unnecessary delays in invoking Article 50.

:02:30.:02:37.

We will invoke it when we are ready, and we will be ready soon.

:02:38.:02:41.

We will invoke Article 50 no later than the end of March next year.

:02:42.:02:44.

But once that legal button, Article 50, is pushed,

:02:45.:02:48.

A new law, the Great Repeal Act, will be ready to roll back European

:02:49.:02:59.

Our laws will be made not in Brussels, but in Westminster.

:03:00.:03:09.

The judges interpreting those laws will sit not in Luxembourg

:03:10.:03:13.

The authority of EU law in Britain will end.

:03:14.:03:26.

She told those resisting change they'd lost, despite their noisy

:03:27.:03:30.

energy this afternoon, indicated to hard-core Eurosceptics

:03:31.:03:35.

that the process won't be rushed, and warned the SNP, too.

:03:36.:03:40.

We will negotiate as one United Kingdom and we will leave

:03:41.:03:43.

the European Union as one United Kingdom.

:03:44.:03:47.

There's no opt-out from Brexit, and I will never allow divisive

:03:48.:03:51.

nationalists to undermine the precious union between the four

:03:52.:03:54.

Cheers suggest the Tory party has found its new heroine.

:03:55.:04:04.

But as Prime Minister, it's her job to appeal to you.

:04:05.:04:10.

Inch by inch, hints of what life outside the EU will look

:04:11.:04:13.

Theresa May has arrived at a timetable for talks and said

:04:14.:04:25.

we won't be under the control of the European courts -

:04:26.:04:28.

another hint, if not a guarantee, that we will be out of Europe's

:04:29.:04:31.

But today's speech was as much about the moment as the meaning.

:04:32.:04:39.

It's the Tory party's first chance to see Theresa May up close

:04:40.:04:42.

So rather than consider any detailed plans for departure from the EU,

:04:43.:04:46.

this week in Birmingham, when it comes to Brexit,

:04:47.:04:51.

With its biggest cheerleader pleasing the home crowd.

:04:52.:05:00.

I think that vote on June the 23rd, I think that was a vote for economic

:05:01.:05:04.

I have just a tiny lingering gloomadon-poppers here in this

:05:05.:05:14.

audience that never once, never once, have I felt

:05:15.:05:17.

in all my conversations in the European Council,

:05:18.:05:20.

that this country would be in any way disadvantaged by extricating

:05:21.:05:23.

On the contrary, I think there are many ways

:05:24.:05:27.

Remember, the Prime Minister who will take us out wanted

:05:28.:05:36.

But with the most complicated task ahead that's faced any

:05:37.:05:43.

government in years, no chance of her merging

:05:44.:05:45.

So, there'll be a bill in the next Queen's Speech to repeal the Act

:05:46.:05:56.

of Parliament that gives EU law supremacy in the UK.

:05:57.:05:59.

All existing EU law will be enshrined into British law

:06:00.:06:01.

and may then be reviewed, changed or removed.

:06:02.:06:03.

As our legal affairs correspondent, Clive Coleman, reports, untangling

:06:04.:06:05.

more than 40 years of EU legislation from our own will be

:06:06.:06:09.

There are flashing images in his report.

:06:10.:06:16.

This is what the laws of the land look like at Westminster.

:06:17.:06:19.

British and EU, thoroughly intertwined on everything

:06:20.:06:22.

from consumer rights, workers' rights, banking and more.

:06:23.:06:24.

Disentangling them is, by any measure, a mammoth undertaking.

:06:25.:06:31.

Here, in its archive, is where every Act of Parliament is stored,

:06:32.:06:34.

But things changed in 1972 with this, the European Communities'

:06:35.:06:43.

Act which took us into what is now the EU and meant that its law

:06:44.:06:46.

And that raises the question - once we're out, how do we get rid

:06:47.:06:53.

Workers' rights are one area that could feel the heat when the process

:06:54.:07:01.

of repealing those laws gets fully under way in 2019.

:07:02.:07:04.

One example - a ruling from the EU's highest court that commission

:07:05.:07:08.

and overtime must be included in holiday pay.

:07:09.:07:13.

Well, this is really damaging for our industry.

:07:14.:07:20.

And going forward, it'll have a negative impact on investment

:07:21.:07:22.

plans and our ability to grow and increase our export

:07:23.:07:24.

It's a piece of EU ruling that needs to be done away with, altogether.

:07:25.:07:31.

But many other workers' rights come from the EU.

:07:32.:07:35.

So will there be a wholesale overhaul?

:07:36.:07:40.

Well, there are many employment law obligations that are deeply

:07:41.:07:44.

unpopular with UK business that employers might want to see the back

:07:45.:07:49.

of post-Brexit but I don't think there is going to be any major

:07:50.:07:53.

changes, because the rights that derive for EU law,

:07:54.:07:55.

are now so heavily embedded in our UK legal system

:07:56.:07:58.

And there are lots of other laws that unambiguously have

:07:59.:08:04.

For example, our beaches used to be awash with raw sewage,

:08:05.:08:08.

So, there's a huge amount to consider and some fear

:08:09.:08:15.

there won't be time for Parliament to scrutinise it all and it'll be

:08:16.:08:18.

The task is so great that I think the risk is that we will end up

:08:19.:08:26.

seeing it being done by executive order.

:08:27.:08:29.

Lots of these things that come from Europe, that we want to keep,

:08:30.:08:32.

they will just be shoved through Parliament by way of regulation.

:08:33.:08:41.

The very thing that people don't like about Europe will

:08:42.:08:43.

So we've got to be very mindful of what the risks are.

:08:44.:08:48.

Keen to quell concerns, the Government says any change

:08:49.:08:51.

will be by evolution, not revolution.

:08:52.:08:53.

But Britain's separation from EU law comes after a 40-year marriage

:08:54.:08:56.

It's likely to be long and it could be painful.

:08:57.:09:01.

Let's return to the Conservative party conference in Birmingham

:09:02.:09:08.

and our political editor, Laura Kuenssberg.

:09:09.:09:10.

Laura, apart from the timetable for Brexit, did we get any signs today

:09:11.:09:17.

about the content of the negotiations, particularly the

:09:18.:09:22.

question of the single market? Well, on the single market, it is so

:09:23.:09:25.

important because it is the huge free trade area that we are in

:09:26.:09:29.

because we are inside the European Union. It is critical to how the

:09:30.:09:33.

country makes its living. So every scrap, every more sell, every tiny

:09:34.:09:37.

nugget of information about the future, either inside or outside the

:09:38.:09:42.

single market is seized upon. The at Leave campaign in the referendum

:09:43.:09:47.

were clear that we would leave the single market, ministers and Theresa

:09:48.:09:50.

May are yet to be explicit about, that they are still being coy. So

:09:51.:09:55.

when the Prime Minister said today we wouldn't be under the rule of the

:09:56.:09:59.

European Court, which right now is part of the single market, the heavy

:10:00.:10:03.

influence was, that we were on our way out. Now Cabinet ministers told

:10:04.:10:08.

me tonight that the one doesn't necessarily automatically follow the

:10:09.:10:11.

other, just because we won't be under the European Courts, that

:10:12.:10:14.

doesn't rule out the fact that we can somehow stay at least partly

:10:15.:10:18.

inside the single market. The difficulty for ministers is this:

:10:19.:10:22.

Until they are ready to be explicit about what life outside the EU will

:10:23.:10:27.

really look like, every tiny little bit of information will create these

:10:28.:10:31.

big questions, and they are just not ready to answer them yet. The

:10:32.:10:36.

suspicion is, of course - not that there is a secret plan that somehow

:10:37.:10:41.

they are just not ready to show, but they haven't produced a plan yet,

:10:42.:10:45.

because they don't know yet what it really is.

:10:46.:11:00.

Listening to that is our Europe Editor, Katya Adler,

:11:01.:11:02.

Katya how is today's news on Brexit being received by the EU?

:11:03.:11:05.

Well the European Commission said it won't comment until tomorrow but

:11:06.:11:13.

across the rest of Europe, Theresa May's announcement was met quietly,

:11:14.:11:17.

politely. And a shrug of the shoulder. Six months is a long time

:11:18.:11:20.

in politics and EU lead remembers already impatient. They have a host

:11:21.:11:25.

of other crises that need their aTerence mike migration and a

:11:26.:11:28.

stagnant eurozone. But for now the ball is had in Theresa May's court.

:11:29.:11:33.

She dictates the start date for Brits talks and she has to tell EU

:11:34.:11:37.

leaders what type of Brexit she wants. But then Brussels believes it

:11:38.:11:42.

gets the upper hand. The clock starts ticking and under EU rules

:11:43.:11:45.

Britain will be given two years in which to get the deal he wants.

:11:46.:11:50.

Where you are tonight, Hungary, the Bishop issue has been the migrant

:11:51.:11:54.

crisis. There was a referendum today in which voters appear to have

:11:55.:11:57.

reject the idea of Europe's migrants being shared out or at least Hungary

:11:58.:12:01.

taking their share. Where will that leave the EU's plans? Well,

:12:02.:12:06.

Hungary's Prime Minister thinks it is a huge problem for Brussels,

:12:07.:12:10.

despite low voter turnout today. I have just left his press conference.

:12:11.:12:16.

He anonced that a higher percentage of Hungarians today voted against EU

:12:17.:12:22.

migrant quotas than voted 14 years ago for joining the European Union.

:12:23.:12:28.

Is this a veiled threat for Huxit, Hungary copying the UK and leaving

:12:29.:12:32.

the EU I doubt T Hungarians and their Prime Minister are all too

:12:33.:12:35.

aware that their economy relies on EU subsidies. But, this is just the

:12:36.:12:41.

latest in the chapters of EU misery. Linked to migration and linked to

:12:42.:12:46.

European voters and by far, not just here in Hungary, pushing back

:12:47.:12:50.

against the EU and saying - you know what, we've had enough of being

:12:51.:12:53.

bossed around by Brussels. Thank you.

:12:54.:12:57.

Campaign managers for the US presidential candidate,

:12:58.:12:59.

Donald Trump, have refused to say whether he avoided paying taxes

:13:00.:13:01.

for a number of years because of a huge business loss

:13:02.:13:04.

The report in the New York Times was based on Mr Trump's 1995 tax

:13:05.:13:09.

return, which he says was obtained illegally.

:13:10.:13:11.

Our North America editor, Jon Sopel, has the details.

:13:12.:13:17.

She's supposed to fight all of these different things and she can't make

:13:18.:13:20.

Donald Trump was in Pennsylvania last night, talking about anything

:13:21.:13:27.

and everything except his taxes and what he has or hasn't paid.

:13:28.:13:33.

But after his debate performance on Monday,

:13:34.:13:39.

the satirists were showing no such restraint.

:13:40.:13:43.

They were having a complete field day.

:13:44.:13:50.

He hasn't released his tax returns which means he's either

:13:51.:13:55.

Or he has never paid taxes in his life.

:13:56.:14:05.

Hillary Clinton today has been in Charlotte,

:14:06.:14:10.

She has called the New York Times story a bombshell moment

:14:11.:14:14.

and demanded the release of her rival's tax returns.

:14:15.:14:17.

Donald Trump hasn't denied the story.

:14:18.:14:19.

His only comment on Twitter was to say: "I know our complex tax

:14:20.:14:21.

But his surrogates have been on the morning shows

:14:22.:14:25.

saying if he hasn't paid any federal income tax,

:14:26.:14:27.

I mean, the reality is, he's a genius.

:14:28.:14:31.

What he did was, he took advantage of something that

:14:32.:14:33.

could save his enterprise and he did something that we admire

:14:34.:14:35.

But here's the thing - most Americans don't have that

:14:36.:14:40.

luxury of not paying their federal income tax,

:14:41.:14:41.

and so Donald Trump is between a rock and a hard place.

:14:42.:14:43.

He either withholds publication, in which case there will be

:14:44.:14:48.

days of speculation about what the tax returns may contain.

:14:49.:14:52.

Or he releases them and have his financial affairs put

:14:53.:14:55.

He seems particularly keen to avoid the latter.

:14:56.:15:04.

The renowned British conductor and violinist Sir Neville Marriner

:15:05.:15:07.

He worked with orchestras in the UK and around the world in a career

:15:08.:15:17.

First a violinist with the London Symphony Orchestra,

:15:18.:15:22.

he later founded the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, one

:15:23.:15:25.

He also recorded the soundtrack for the film Amadeus.

:15:26.:15:36.

The number of children being diagnosed as having Type 2

:15:37.:15:39.

diabetes has doubled in the past ten years.

:15:40.:15:41.

Senior doctors have told the BBC that over 100 under-16s in the UK

:15:42.:15:45.

developed the disease last year - it was unheard of in children

:15:46.:15:49.

As our health editor Hugh Pym explains, obesity is thought to be

:15:50.:15:54.

He's 15 and already Amir's developed type 2 diabetes.

:15:55.:16:04.

It does run in his family but even so, he knows in the past he didn't

:16:05.:16:08.

do enough to help himself by taking care over what he ate.

:16:09.:16:13.

My mum gave me money and said you have to spend it on your lunch,

:16:14.:16:16.

you are not going to the shop to get chocolate, crisps or sugary drinks.

:16:17.:16:22.

And sometimes I'd like get a small chocolate bar but then when it comes

:16:23.:16:25.

to checking my sugar levels I was like -

:16:26.:16:27.

oh my God, I need to drink a lot of water.

:16:28.:16:30.

His blood glucose level is much higher than it should be

:16:31.:16:33.

and his consultant warns him what might happen if he doesn't

:16:34.:16:35.

The problem is, Amir, is that if we carry on like this, at 15,

:16:36.:16:40.

by the time you are 25, you will get eye damage and you have

:16:41.:16:43.

already had gout and stuff in your feet as well.

:16:44.:16:45.

Type 2 diabetes, linked to diet and lifestyle,

:16:46.:16:50.

All the dead and infected tissue has gone.

:16:51.:16:56.

There is an increasing strain on the NHS.

:16:57.:17:02.

Around 4 million people in the UK have it.

:17:03.:17:10.

Research shown to the BBC's Panorama suggests a doubling

:17:11.:17:13.

of new cases for people aged 16 and under in just ten years.

:17:14.:17:16.

Doctors say they are shocked by the data.

:17:17.:17:18.

It wasn't in any of our medical textbooks.

:17:19.:17:20.

We didn't expect to see it as an issue.

:17:21.:17:26.

It was always an American problem but in the year 2000

:17:27.:17:28.

we saw the first cases in the UK here in Birmingham.

:17:29.:17:30.

Experts are also concerned about the way type 2 diabetes

:17:31.:17:32.

Adults who get it at 50 may not necessarily get the other

:17:33.:17:40.

complications but the children we have seen with type 2 have more

:17:41.:17:44.

aggressive progress and are getting the complications earlier

:17:45.:17:46.

He is getting control over his diabetes but knows

:17:47.:17:54.

he has to stay focussed on a healthy lifestyle.

:17:55.:17:57.

Hospitals find it difficult enough coping with the growing burden

:17:58.:17:59.

The new fear is that failing to tackle the rising number

:18:00.:18:04.

of children developing type 2 diabetes could, in time,

:18:05.:18:06.

And there's more on that tomorrow night in Panorama, Diabetes -

:18:07.:18:15.

The Hidden Killer, at 8.30 here on BBC One.

:18:16.:18:21.

With all the sport, here's Lizzie Greenwood-Hughes

:18:22.:18:23.

Thank you very much. Yes, Europe's golfers have just lost the Ryder

:18:24.:18:33.

Cup. Already trailing the USA, they needed a sensational final day to

:18:34.:18:37.

retain the famous trovy. It wasn't to be. They were beaten 15-10 in

:18:38.:18:41.

Minnesota. Andy Swiss is in Hazel Tyne ands has

:18:42.:18:48.

the story of the day. - Hazletine. Welcome to the sporting

:18:49.:18:57.

cauldron. USA, USA. Even before the start, American fans in deafening

:18:58.:19:01.

voice and promising to get louder. Times ten it is going to be crazy. I

:19:02.:19:06.

plan on losing my voice by the time the second group goes through. Yes.

:19:07.:19:12.

Enter their number one target. Rory McIllroy to some they at tricks.

:19:13.:19:19.

Dancing for his fans, while opponent Patrick Reed cranked up the volume

:19:20.:19:27.

55-footer. From there the team's two tal Ismen went toe-to-toe in quite

:19:28.:19:31.

spectacular passion. McIlroy firing up the fans to fever pitch. But so

:19:32.:19:38.

did Reed as birdie followed birdie. This was eye-popping, finger wagging

:19:39.:19:41.

stuff, yet the mutual respect was clear. Have you ever seen anything

:19:42.:19:44.

like this? It was Europe that secured the first

:19:45.:19:52.

win. A watery end for Jordan Spieth, and Henrik Stenson set about closing

:19:53.:19:56.

the gap. But the hosts hit back. After a breath-taking battle. Reed

:19:57.:20:02.

beating McIlroy on the final hole. Once again the decibel count was

:20:03.:20:07.

rising. In Thomas Pieters Europe have found a new star and he capped

:20:08.:20:15.

a stunning few days over Holmes. And there was more success. For Cabrera

:20:16.:20:27.

Bella. Europe were a point behind but back came the US, Rickie Fowler

:20:28.:20:33.

beating Justin Rose and when Phil Mickelson produced magic on the

:20:34.:20:36.

final green, the US were in touching distance of Ryder Cup glory.

:20:37.:20:40.

Yes, what drama we have seen. I can tell you that within the last few

:20:41.:20:45.

minutes, the US have clinched the Ryder Cup. Ryan Moore with the

:20:46.:20:51.

winning moment on the 18th green. So disappointment for Europe, but huge

:20:52.:20:56.

celebrations here for the US and their thousands of fans. They have

:20:57.:21:00.

clinched the Ryder Cup for the fist time since 2008.

:21:01.:21:01.

Thank you very much, Andy. Lewis Hamilton has demanded answers

:21:02.:21:09.

from his Formula One team after his engine caught fire

:21:10.:21:11.

when he was leading the Malaysian Grand Prix,

:21:12.:21:13.

denying him the chance of going back to the top of the

:21:14.:21:16.

drivers' standings. The Briton now trails Nico Rosberg

:21:17.:21:18.

by 23 points with five races to go. England's new interim football

:21:19.:21:21.

manager Gareth Southgate has announced his first squad this

:21:22.:21:23.

evening for the upcoming Match Of The Day 2 follows the news,

:21:24.:21:26.

so if you don't want to know Dele Alli helped ruin

:21:27.:21:31.

Manchester City's perfect record this season, as Tottenham beat them

:21:32.:21:39.

2-0 at White Hart Lane. The result moves Spurs into second,

:21:40.:21:42.
