Good morning, Jenny here with your Wednesday Newsround. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
This lunchtime, the Prime Minister, Theresa May, will answer questions | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
from Members of Parliament, after she made a really important | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
speech about the future of Britain. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
Mrs May announced some big decisions about how Britain | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
will work in the future, now it's leaving the European Union. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
She also said Britain would leave a group called the Single Market. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
Some other politicians, like the Scottish First Minister, | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
Nicola Sturgeon, are unhappy about the decision, | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
which she says could be very bad for Scotland and for Britain. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:42 | |
So what do "Brexit", "Single Market", | 0:00:42 | 0:00:43 | |
and all the other words we've been hearing, actually mean? | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
Ricky's got this one. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:50 | |
If you've been watching the news lately, | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
you will have heard a lot of... | 0:00:53 | 0:00:55 | |
Brexit. Britain voted for Brexit. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:56 | |
Brexit. Brexit. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:57 | |
Brexit. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:58 | |
And probably a few... | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
The European Union. Control. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:01 | |
Immigration. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
Oh, and don't forget... | 0:01:03 | 0:01:04 | |
The Single Market. Article 50. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:05 | |
Exiting the EU. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
But what do they all mean? | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
Let's start with Brexit. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
No, it's not the name of a new breakfast cereal. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
It's simply two words put together, Britain and exit - | 0:01:13 | 0:01:18 | |
together that makes Brexit. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:20 | |
So, what exactly is Britain exiting? | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
Well, last year adults in the UK voted to leave the European Union, | 0:01:24 | 0:01:28 | |
which is a bit like a club, only this club is made up of | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
28 countries who work together. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
The UK has been part of it for more than 40 years, | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
but most people who voted thought that it would be better | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
for decisions to be made in the UK rather than in the EU. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:44 | |
So, how do we leave? | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
By activating something called Article 50. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
Think of it as a giant red button - | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
once it has been pressed, the process to leave | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
the European Union officially begins. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
It's not really a red button, though, but it is very important. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
Now, leaving the EU won't happen overnight. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:05 | |
Loads of things need to be discussed. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:06 | |
For example, how do we live and work with all the other countries | 0:02:06 | 0:02:10 | |
in Europe once we've waved goodbye? | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
Well, two of the biggest issues being talked | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
about are immigration control and the single market. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
Let's start with the first one. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
Immigration - that's when people move to a different country | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
to live and work. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:25 | |
At the moment, people who are from the EU have the right | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
to live and work here in the UK. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
The Prime Minister says she wants more control over our borders | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
to limit the number of people coming to live here from overseas, | 0:02:32 | 0:02:36 | |
and that means she's made a big decision on Britain's place | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
in the Single Market. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
So, what's that? | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
Well, at the moment, the UK is part of the Single Market, | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
which makes it easier for countries in the | 0:02:45 | 0:02:47 | |
European Union to do business. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
There are rules that everyone in the Single Market | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
needs to sign up to, and one of those is that people | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
from the European Union have the right to come and live | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
and work here in the UK. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
Theresa May says that the voters made it clear they didn't want | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
the EU making those rules, and so Britain will be | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
leaving the Single Market, | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
and that means the UK has got to make lots of decisions about how | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
we buy and sell things, not just with Europe, | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
but what the rest of the world too. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
So, there you have it. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:20 | |
That's a lot of words. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
Thanks, Ricky. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:24 | |
Now, there's loads more info about Brexit and what the | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
Prime Minister has announced over at Newsround online. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
To footie, and it was a very exciting night for fans | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
of the FA Cup last night, as two non-league | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
teams created a shock. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:36 | |
Lincoln City beat Ipswich Town of the Championship 1-0 in their | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
FA Cup third round replay. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
The drama was left until the 91st minute, when Nathan Arnold scored | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
a well-deserved winner for Lincoln, who'll play Brighton next. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:51 | |
And another non-league side, Sutton United, also made it through. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
They beat League One's AFC Wimbledon 3-1 in their replay. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:58 | |
Tonight's matches include Liverpool's FA CUP replay | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
against Plymouth Argyle. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:06 | |
Where do you go after living in the White House? | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
The place where the President lives, in Washington, in the US. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
President Obama and his family move out this week, | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
to make way for President Trump, | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
and this is the house they'll be moving to. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
It's unusual for presidents to remain in the capital, | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
but they're staying so Mr Obama's daughter Sasha can finish high | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
school with her friends. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
Next, to the American football game where puppies are the players. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:29 | |
More than 80 pups from animal shelters took | 0:04:29 | 0:04:32 | |
part in the Puppy Bowl, including three dogs | 0:04:32 | 0:04:34 | |
with special needs. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:35 | |
A referee keeps watch over the game, and fouls include things | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
like touching each other's tails. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:40 | |
The game was being filmed and will air on US TV | 0:04:40 | 0:04:43 | |
as an alternative to the real Super Bowl. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
That's all from the team for now. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
Newsround's back right here at 8.15. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
