The Brexit Secretary David Davis has called on MPs to reject Lords | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
amendments on the Brexit Bill passing through parliament | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
and to give Theresa May a free hand in negotiations | :00:29. | :00:30. | |
Speaking this morning, he said that it would not be acceptable | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
for Parliament to try to reverse the will of the British people. | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
Labour says it will fight for the amendments in | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
Our political correspondent Susana Mendonca has more details. | :00:44. | :00:52. | |
The latest instalment in the battle to trigger Brexit take centre stage | :00:53. | :01:00. | |
tomorrow and the government is warning MPs including potential | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
rebels on its own side not to stand on its way. What we cannot have is | :01:05. | :01:11. | |
the either house of Parliament reversing the decision of the | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
British people. They have not got a veto. What does it mean otherwise? | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
This is how the timetable has unfolded. Last week the Lords passed | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
the second of two amendments to the government's Article 50 bill and | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
tomorrow the bill goes to the Commons, where MPs could reject the | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
amendments had passed the bill back to the Lords and if the upper house | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
backed down a bill will proceed to Royal assent, allowing Theresa May | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
to trigger Article 50. If the Lords does not back down it could go back | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
to the Commons in a process known as ping-pong and labour insists it will | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
fight for the amendments Distin. What we say to the Prime Minister | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
and I wrote to her on Friday, reflect on what the House of Lords | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
has said by majorities of nearly 100 they have sent back to important | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
issues, the EU nationals and the vote, reflect on that, don't have | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
this obsession with getting Article 50 triggered this week. The Prime | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
Minister has done the legwork with EU partners ahead of triggering | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
Brexit but some are worried there is not enough planning going on for the | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
prospect of no deal at the end of it. If there is going to be no deal | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
it will have serious implications for businesses and individuals and | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
the government needs to ensure we have planned for it. But the Brexit | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
Secretary says he has a plan. The simple truth is we have been | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
planning for all the possible outcomes of the negotiations. | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
Including a proper plan for no deal? Yes. Whatever the plan may be the | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
government has to get permission from this place first before it can | :02:54. | :02:54. | |
get negotiations going. There has been scathing criticism | :02:55. | :03:06. | |
from a senior Tory. Michael Heseltine, the former Deputy Prime | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
Minister and people might remember he got sacked from his government | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
adviser job because he rebelled and supported one of the Lords | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
amendments on the triggering of article 15. What he said is there | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
are a number of Tories who feel appalled and betrayed by the way | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
Theresa May has dealt with the issue and he points to the loss of the | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
seat in Richmond, the by-election where Zac Goldsmith lost to the | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
Liberal Democrats and he says it is a bigger issue for a lot of Tories | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
than the conservative wing in coats and when they beat Labour. What he | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
says is that the Conservatives are not just following the ringmaster, | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
they have their own views on Europe and concerns and they want the Prime | :03:51. | :03:51. | |
Minister to listen. Thanks. Dutch riot police have broken up | :03:52. | :03:53. | |

to retaliate in what it From Rotterdam Anna Holligan | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
sent this report. The Netherlands, a traditionally | :04:12. | :04:19. | |
tolerant nation, erupted overnight. Riot police struggled to disperse | :04:20. | :04:31. | |
hundreds of angry Turkish expats, outraged by the Netherlands' refusal | :04:32. | :04:38. | |
to allow their politicians to attend a rally in support | :04:39. | :04:40. | |
of President Erdogan. This was a demonstration | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
of the support he commands abroad. He is depending on the backing | :04:47. | :04:53. | |
of one million-plus Turkish citizens who live in Europe | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
to expand his powers back home But his Family Minister didn't get | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
the chance to address them. Amateur footage shows her arguing | :05:00. | :05:10. | |
with police, before being escorted | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
back to the border. TRANSLATION: In Holland, | :05:14. | :05:15. | |
Holland as a country that speaks of freedom and democracy, | :05:16. | :05:22. | |

branded the Dutch Nazi remnants and fascists, | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
after they refused to allow his Foreign Minister | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
to campaign on Dutch territory. The timing is especially | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
sensitive for both countries. TRANSLATION: We are in the wrong | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
situation with Turkey at the moment. We have asked the Minister not | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
to come because of the tensions In a few days, the Dutch will vote | :05:53. | :05:55. | |

the UN's latest camp opened last week, but is | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
already filling up fast. Yet another stream of refugees | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
from Mosul and surrounding villages arriving at the Chamakor camp | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
on the outskirts This is a new camp for | :07:07. | :07:07. | |
the internally displaced, opened just a few days ago, | :07:08. | :07:15. | |
as authorities simply ran out And it looks like it's | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
filling up quite quickly. The latest arrivals have come | :07:19. | :07:26. | |
from a village north-west of Mosul, where Iraqi forces have been | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
advancing over the last few days. They describe a harrowing journey | :07:31. | :07:32. | |
from their homes to the camp. TRANSLATION: We called | :07:33. | :07:41. | |
officers in the Iraqi army, at night and that they would secure | :07:42. | :07:43. | |
the road for us. We walked towards the mountain, | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
and IS fighters followed Finally, the army spotted them | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
and fired at them, and they fled. We ran away and walked the entire | :07:51. | :07:59. | |
night with our men and children. And when we arrived, | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
we were received by the Army, To my brother and mother in Syria | :08:04. | :08:06. | |

within a few more days. The creator of the world wide web, | :08:29. | :08:37. | |
Sir Tim Berners-Lee, has waded into the debate | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
about so-called fake news. In an open letter to mark | :08:41. | :08:42. | |
the web's 28th anniversary, Sir Tim unveiled a plan to tackle | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
data abuse and fake news, and expressed concerns about how | :08:48. | :08:49. | |
the web is being used. Sir Tim said he wanted to start | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
to combat the misuse of personal data, which he said created | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
a "chilling effect on free speech". The government is being urged | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
to create a central database for taxi drivers | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
in England and Wales. A BBC investigation has found that | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
