EU leaders set out a united strategy for the Brexit negotiations.

They say the rights of EU citizens must come before any talks on trade,

and warn Britain not to underestimate the challenges.

From Brussels, Damian Grammaticas reports.

Enter your's most powerful - Chancellors, prime ministers and

presidents gathered in Brussels today. It took just four minutes to

sign off on their negotiating position. -- enter Europe's most

power. They were ready, they say, to face the UK across the table with a

single set of demands. No dissension, no splits, just smiles,

even taking a few snaps for their albums. TRANSLATION: There is

definitely a price, a cost of 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 then it is

now. -- than it is now. That is what they want from the UK: A guarantee

of citizens' rights. EU citizens in the UK, British citizens elsewhere

in the EU. A financial settlement, meaning that the UK must agree to

pay a portion of all spending up to 2020. And solutions to appoint new

border controls between North and South in Ireland. What EU leaders

are most worried about this what Angela Merkel has called illusions

on the British side about what can be achieved in Brexit negotiations.

This process today is about injecting a bit of realism into the

debate - the EU's redlines. Only if their demands are satisfied will EU

leaders then move on to discuss future trade deal with it UK. What

do you think the illusions are that some in the UK harbour? TRANSLATION:

Sometimes have the impression that some in Britain, I don't mean the

Government, do not understand the process of a phased negotiation.

This gives me the opportunity to say again that there is no conspiracy

and no one is ganging up on Britain. The EU side even agreeing the first

item on their list, citizens' rights, won't be straightforward.

Jean-Claude Juncker says the EU is ready to give guarantees, but he

isn't so sure about the UK. We have already put down a text which could

be adopted immediately if our British friends were willing to sign

it, but that probably will not happen. And that is just one

stumbling block. Money could be another, before any talk of trade

deals. Those gaming, by EU standards, very

firm language we have been hearing today. Certainly, and that is very

deliberate. The EU side have moved to lay out their very clear, clearly

defined position. It is striking how United they were and how fast they

moved. It took the lead as minutes today, no disagreements amongst

them, and it is also clear that they are still far away from the UK

position on quite a number of issues, so there are those initial

demands they had set out, also issues like the fact that they will

not allow special access to the single market for any single sector

in the UK. They will not move to trade talks until they are satisfied

with what they have heard from the UK. In all of those ways, strong

signals. They also say they don't think the outcome of the UK election

will change what they are prepared to offer. I also think there is

worth noting in their negotiating guidelines some things that are

positive, too. They say they do want a close relationship, and to move to

trade talks, provided their initial demands are met. Damian, thank you

very much indeed. As the EU was meeting,

the Prime Minister was in Scotland - her first visit since calling

the general election. She used it to repeat her claim that

every vote for the Conservatives would strengthen her hand

in the Brexit negotiations, A world away from the EU summit,

on Royal Deeside, near Aberdeen. Theresa May

and Scottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson came here to address

an invited audience of supporters as the Tories

target SNP-held territory in the hope of weakening

the nationalist campaign for another vote

on Scottish independence. If the SNP win the election

in Scotland, what right would you have to block

a second referendum on independence once

the Right now, we should

be working together, That is why

I say every vote for me and my team in this election will be

a vote for strengthening our hand That will strengthen our

hand to get the best In nearby Banchory, four

leaflets were posted, but no one answered the Prime

Minister's knock. For years, the Tories have been

toxic in Scotland, and like labour and the Lib Dems, they

still only have one MP. But they are confident they can make

gains in Scotland in this In Glasgow, the SNP

First Minister knows it will be hard to hold all 56 Scottish seats

won by her party just two years ago, but opinion polls suggest

the SNP is on course to return more MPs than

all their rivals put together. That this election does ensure

that decisions about the future of our country are taken

by the Scottish people and the Scottish Parliament,

not by a right-wing Tory The Lib Dems want to

keep the UK in the European single market,

and Scotland in the UK. People in Scotland don't want

another independence It would cause uncertainty

and chaos at an already Labour says the Conservatives

put the union between Theresa May has only given the SNP

the excuse they were looking for to have a second referendum

because of her gamble with Brexit. But Theresa May's Tories

think they are on the Glenn Campbell, BBC

News, Aberdeenshire. The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has

defended his style of leadership. Speaking to supporters in north

London he accused Theresa May of using "simple slogans" to seek

"unchallenged" power, and slipping into what he called

a "presidential bunker mentality". Our political correspondent

Iain Watson reports. You may have noticed the tone

of this campaign has been, well, a The Labour leader usually doesn't

directly respond, but today, he decided the best form

of defence was attack. If party leaders put themselves

ahead of serving the people, they stop listening and even

put our country at risk. Barely nine months

into Theresa May's premiership, there are clear warning

signs that she and her closest advisers are slipping into that

presidential bunker mentality. The Conservatives

are determined to save -- The Conservatives

are determined to say the choice of this election

is all about leadership. Labour's usual response to this

relentless message is to try to change the subject,

to talk about policy. But now clearly Jeremy Corbyn

believes it's worth the risk of taking Theresa May

on on her own territory. Whereas insecure leaders

want to feel stronger by asking you to give them more power,

I recognise strong leadership as And here's a different

type of leadership. Ukip's Paul Nuttall

was in Hartlepool to announce he was standing for election in,

well, somewhere else entirely. I've been due to be in Hartlepool

anyway, the date has I've come up here to campaign

alongside our great branch and we will be targeting this

seat at the general election. Now usually political

leaders say they Not the Liberal Democrat

leader, though. Right around the country, I'm

here to say I am determined to be clear that our country

faces an absolute democratic challenge if it

becomes a one-party state. The Conservatives

will want the issue of leadership to continue

to dominate this election. The parties seem to have decided

they now need to try to A man's appeared in court charged

with the murder of the former Royal Navy officer Mike Samwell,

who is thought to have been run over Mr Samwell had tried to stop thieves

from stealing his car Ryan Gibbons, who's 29,

is charged with murder, burglary 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 Mohamed Amoudi, who is 21,

was deported back to the UK. Our home affairs correspondent

June Kelly, is here. As these suspects in this alleged

terror plot prepared to spend their third night in custody, it has

become clear that one of them, Mohamed Amoudi, had travelled to

Turkey in 20 15th with two 17-year-olds. Now, the suggestion is

that the three of them then planned to cross the border into Syria, and

the suspicion was they were hoping to join up with ISI tours. They were

stopped in Turkey, deported to the UK, questioned by British

authorities and released without charge. An update this evening on

the woman who was shot by police in this operation in Willesden, north

London. She is said to be improving in hospital. Meanwhile, in the

separate investigation involving the man detained in Whitehall, it has

become clear that that man had spent a period in Afghanistan before he

returned to the UK towards the end of last year. Thanks for that

update. Donald Trump's accused

North Korea of disrespecting China after it test-fired

a second ballistic missile. The test was launched hours

after the American Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson,

called for a tougher international approach at the United

Nations Security Council. As tensions build, it is a reminder

of America's formidable military The USS Carl Vinson arrived

in waters off the Korean peninsula just hours after the

failed missile test. Shortly before arriving

to make his case in New York, the US Secretary of States

at the United Nations. His message was clear: UN

sanctions aren't working. The pressure on North Korea

must be stepped up. With each successive detonation

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 Seoul or Tokyo is real. And it is likely only

a matter of time before capability to strike

the US mainland. So far, UN pressure has not stopped

North Korea accelerating Overnight, President Trump

also gave his view. He tweeted: North Korea disrespected

the wishes of China and its highly respected president

when it launched, though unsuccessfully, a missile today.

Bad! 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 latest move by North Korea's

young leader appears to have strengthened international resolve

to increase the pressure on him and Now, it's been a busy day in sport,

and something of a big night ahead. Here's Lizzie Greenwood-Hughes

at the BBC Sport Centre with more. In less than an hour's time,

one of the biggest boxing matches in British history will take place

in London, as Watford's Anthony Joshua takes on the Ukrainian

great Wladimir Klitschko. 90,000 people will be

watching at Wembley, not to mention the millions

around the world. Our correspondent Olly Foster

is at the stadium. Olly, there has been so much

hype around this fight - It's a super fight, and we have so

many superlatives to choose from. The biggest crowd that we will have

seen at a boxing bout since the war. The biggest fight of Anthony

Joshua's career. He is the biggest he has ever been, just shy of 18

stone, but this is the toughest opponent he will have faced, in

Wladimir Klitschko, the man who dominated this division for over a

decade. Klitschko is 41, 14 years older than Joshua and has fought 50

more fights. Many people feel, is he too old? Many people think that

experience will be telling, because Joshua is still so raw, and there is

so much at stake. It is a unification fight, fighting for

Josh's IBF world heavyweight crown, and also the vacant WBA title as

well. It will be a fascinating fight and nobody knows which way it will

go. We will find out in the next hour and a half or so, and you can

listen on radio five live. Thank you, Ollie.
