29/04/2017 BBC Weekend News

Good afternoon and welcome to BBC News at One.

27 union leaders meeting in Brussels have agreed their negotiating

positions on Britain leaving the EU. Among other demands, they say the UK

must agree a financial settlement on the future rights of EU citizens

before any trade talks take place. The French president said written

must pay a price the leaving. It is just one month since the Brexit

letter was triggered, and that you leaders have their Brexit position

ready to go. TRANSLATION: There is definitely a

price, a cost for the UK, that is the choice it has made. It shouldn't

be a punishment, but Europe will defend its interests, and the UK

will be in a worse position outside the EU than it is now. What you EU

leaders are most anxious about is what Britain feels it can achieve

outside of the negotiations. Today was about injecting realism into the

debate. This is what the EU will demand. The rights of millions of

citizens affected by Brexit on both sides are preserved. That the UK

agrees to fulfil its financial obligations to the EU. That way is

sought to avoid new border controls in Ireland. Michel Barnier is the

man tasked with enforcing those red lines. Everything ready for the UK

negotiations? Here they say the outcome of the UK

election will make no difference to the deal they will offer. If she

wants to have a new election, it is her decision. It is an internal

problem she wants to resolve the Conservative Party to have Theresa's

Brexit, and she need support from the public. So that you EU leaders

say that they are united and want Brexit on their terms.

Well, in a moment we can talk to our political

correspondent Ellie Price, who's in Westminister.

But first let's talk to Damien Grammaticas in Brussels.

Damien, just how united is this united front?

To give you an example, those negotiating guidelines were adopted

one minute after the leaders sat down for their meeting just a little

earlier. It was the only item on the agenda, there was clearly no debate

or discussion, they all signed off on it, so they are ready and they

are very clear, they want those things that they have outlined

agreed before they will move onto any trade talks. And I think that

point about illusions, delusions, on the UK side, what they are worried

about their are securing commitments from the UK but the financial

liabilities will be met, and the rights of citizens will be

preserved, so things like work rights, pension rights, rights to

bring your family to live with you, all of those things they need nailed

down, and they don't want any wiggling around on that before they

move on to discuss the UK's future. Thank you very much indeed. Will the

British Government be at all surprised by this united stance,

Ellie? I don't think there will be too many

surprises. Theresa May has already made her views quite clear. She has

based her election strategy around it. Take for example the comments

made by Angela Merkel early in the week where she said some Britons had

the illusion that trade negotiating -- negotiations could happen at the

same time as the Brexit deal. She says a Tory majority, strong Tory

majority, would strengthen her hand in Brexit negotiations. Of course

the other political parties have criticised Theresa May's strong

handed approach. They say that she really ought to go in with a more

conciliatory tone. They point to, for example, EU nationals and the

fact that she hasn't guaranteed their rights within the UK in those

negotiations. Tone will be central to this negotiation, and it shows

the challenge ahead for whoever wins this negotiation. Ali Price in

Westminster, thank you. The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has

stressed the importance for Labour of young people "stepping up"

and registering to vote for the upcoming general election

before the deadline to do Addressing supporters in east

London, Mr Corbyn stressed that "apathy and resignation" would hand

seats to the Conservatives. 2.4 million young people are missing

from Britain's electoral register. Barely 40% of 18 to 24-year-olds

normally turn out to vote. The Conservatives are more than

happy with this state of affairs. Apathy and resignation will secure

them seats on election day. The Ukip leader Paul Nuttall says

he'll stand as a candidate in Boston and Skegness

in the general election. People there voted overwhelmingly

to leave the EU in last Mr Nuttall, who recently stood as a

candidate in the Stoke by-election, said it would be an honour to stand

again. The Prime Minister will be

campaigning in Scotland this afternoon for the first time

since calling the general election. Conservatives have been buoyed

by opinion polls suggesting support for their party is growing north

of the border. Meanwhile in a speech in Glasgow,

Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon insisted only the SNP can

stop the Conservatives imposing We know from experience in Scotland

and here in Glasgow that every vote for the Tories

has real consequences. We've seen the damage

a Tory Government has done It's emerged that one of the six

people arrested in a counter terrorism operation in North London

on Thursday night had been suspected of attempting to travel to Syria

to join the so-called Islamic State. Mohamed Amoudi, who's 21,

was deported back to the UK. Our home affairs correspondent

June Kelly is here. Mohamed Amoudi, one of those

detained in what Scotland Yard have described as an operation to foil a

suspected terrorist plot, a woman was shot during the operation and

remains in hospital. It has now emerged that Mohamed Amoudi came to

the attention of the British authorities in 2013. He had

travelled to Turkey with two 17-year-old boys, attempting to

cross to Syria and join up with IS fighters. They were sent back to the

UK, question by authorities and released without charge. We also

have this separate counterterrorism investigation going on into the man

who was detained in Whitehall on Thursday, and it has now emerged

that he had spent some time in Afghanistan, and he came back to the

UK towards the end of last year. June Kelly, thank you.

Donald Trump has accused North Korea of disrespecting

China after it test-fired a second ballistic missile.

The test was launched hours after US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson

called for a tougher international approach at the United

Our correspondent Daniela Relph reports.

As tensions build, it is a reminder of America's formidable military

might. The USS Carl Vincent arrived in waters off the Korean peninsula,

just hours after the failed nuclear test. US Secretary of State at the

United Nations, his message was clear. UN sanctions are not working.

The pressure on North Korea must be stepped up. With each successive

debtor nation and missile test, North Korea pushes Northeast Asia

and the world closer to instability and broader conflict. The threat of

a North Korean nuclear attack on South Korea or Tokyo is real. So

far, pressure has not stopped North Korea accelerating its nuclear

weapons programme. President Trump also gave his view. He tweeted:

And in London this morning, during a visit to the UK, the Japanese Prime

Minister denounced the missile test. TRANSLATION: It is a grave threat to

our country. This is absolutely not acceptable. We strongly condemn such

acts. This latest move by North Korea's young leader appears to have

strengthened international resolve to increase the pressure on him and

his country. Daniela Relph, BBC News.

With all the sport, here's Mike Bushell

After a week of pleasantries, the next time Anthony Joshua

and Vladimir Klitschko come face to face, it will be in the ring

and time for business tonight, when we see who can become

the the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.

Among the 90,000 watching at Wembley will be our man Olly Foster,

Will it be youth or experience that prevails?

It really is. Good afternoon. Anthony Joshua at the age of just

27, he has only fought 18 times, he is unbeaten, but in the biggest

fight of his career, big in so many ways because there are 90,000 here,

a postwar record from boxing crowd. He is facing Wladimir Klitschko, the

man at the top of his sport for so long, and he is convinced he can get

back to the top. Let's hear from both fighters. Give me the

challenges people want to see. If it takes me to bring the limelight back

to British boxing and boxing globally, I will be the man at the

forefront and represented properly. That is what I thrive on, what the

people want, we will deliver. I don't think about being three times

world champion. It is all about my ego that got a little scratched with

the last fight, and I just want to show to myself that I can do it, I

still got it. I know I can do it. Everything else is a positive

side-effect. Dychko is 41 years old, he has fought 51 more fights than

Joshua. Lennox Lewis things that Father Time will catch up on

Klitschko tonight. Coverage starts at nine tonight. Thanks, Olly.
