:00:28. > :00:37.David Davis updates MPs on the ups and downs of the negotiations.
:00:38. > :00:41.Nobody will pretend this would be simple or easy. I have always said
:00:42. > :00:43.that the glaciation will be tough. MPs and peers express their concerns
:00:44. > :00:48.over North Korea's nuclear tests and a Foreign Office minister faces
:00:49. > :00:50.criticism from his own side over the Government's response to plight
:00:51. > :01:02.of the Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar. Which sounded deep close to doubling
:01:03. > :01:05.for the blame of this ethnic cleansing on the victim community.
:01:06. > :01:09.Just where has the UK got to in its negotiations
:01:10. > :01:13.At a news conference following the last round of talks
:01:14. > :01:16.both the UK and EU expressed frustration at the pace of the talks
:01:17. > :01:18.and continued disagreement over the size of the UK's "divorce bill".
:01:19. > :01:21.EU negotiator Michel Barnier said "no decisive progress" had
:01:22. > :01:29.But the Brexit Secretary David Davis said the UK had a "duty
:01:30. > :01:34.to our taxpayers" to "rigorously" examine the EU's demands.
:01:35. > :01:37.Updating MPs David Davis was jeered by the Labour side as he gave
:01:38. > :01:50.While at times do negotiations have been tough it is clear we have made
:01:51. > :01:50.concrete progress on many important issues.
:01:51. > :01:54.LAUGHTER in areas such as healthcare
:01:55. > :01:59.and recognition of qualifications. But he turned to the so-called
:02:00. > :02:09.divorce bill - the money the UK Our discussions this week have
:02:10. > :02:12.demonstrated yet again and exposed yet again that the UK approach is
:02:13. > :02:21.substantially more flexible and pragmatic than that of the EU, it
:02:22. > :02:24.did avoid unnecessary destruction for business and consumers. I have
:02:25. > :02:32.urged the EU to be more imaginative and flexible on the approach to this
:02:33. > :02:36.point. He turned to the money the UK will pay on leaving. In July the
:02:37. > :02:41.commission said of the EU position. We have a duty to our taxpayers to
:02:42. > :02:46.interrogate the position vigorously and that is what we did line by
:02:47. > :02:50.line. It may be a little bit of a shock to the commissioner but that
:02:51. > :02:53.is what we did line by line. In the August round we set out our analysis
:02:54. > :02:59.of the EU position and we also had in death discussions and even
:03:00. > :03:04.doesn't bank and other budget is. It is clear the two sides have very
:03:05. > :03:08.different legal stances but as we said in the Article 50 D settlement
:03:09. > :03:11.should be in accordance with law and in the spirit of the UK continuing
:03:12. > :03:11.partnership with the EU. There were, he said,
:03:12. > :03:27.significant differences to be Although he will say at I am sure he
:03:28. > :03:29.is equally frustrated by an equally unhelpful to whistle comments and
:03:30. > :03:38.blackmail comments from some of his own colleagues. I am sure that
:03:39. > :03:41.colleagues and officials in his department are working hard in these
:03:42. > :03:46.difficult because stations and pay tribute to what they are doing
:03:47. > :03:48.behind the scenes. But the state of affairs and the slow process of
:03:49. > :03:54.progress are a real cause for concern. Parties appear to be
:03:55. > :04:00.getting farther apart than closer together. There is no huge pressure
:04:01. > :04:06.on the negotiating round itself in September. -- now huge pressure. The
:04:07. > :04:11.consequence is this, if says two is pushed back there are very serious
:04:12. > :04:15.consequences for Britain. And no deal, which I had hoped had died a
:04:16. > :04:20.death since the election, could yet rise from the ashes. Nobody would
:04:21. > :04:24.pretend that this would be simple or easy. I have always said the
:04:25. > :04:30.negotiation will be tough, complex... Tough, complex and at
:04:31. > :04:32.times confrontational. Keir Starmer said it was time
:04:33. > :04:36.to drop some of the Prime Minister's "deeply flawed" red lines to create
:04:37. > :04:43.the flexibility necessary. We are all see reaching the stage of
:04:44. > :04:49.negotiations where fantasy meets brutal reality. The truth is that
:04:50. > :04:55.too many promises have been made about Brexit which can't be kept.
:04:56. > :04:59.The Secretary of State has just said that nobody was pretending it would
:05:00. > :05:03.be easy. LAUGHTER
:05:04. > :05:06.Mr Speaker, they were pretending it would be easy, the international
:05:07. > :05:10.trade Secretary promised that negotiating a deal with the EU would
:05:11. > :05:15.be and I quote, one of the easiest deals in human history to negotiate.
:05:16. > :05:19.Can I urge my right honourable friend not to accept the advice of
:05:20. > :05:22.the opposition party that only six weeks ago was in favour of leaving
:05:23. > :05:26.the customs union and the single market and only today has now
:05:27. > :05:30.reversed that position, he should say steady on the course of the
:05:31. > :05:33.Government. The EU has a very simple choice to make and they help it make
:05:34. > :05:36.its own but they will boldly mated later, they can either trade with
:05:37. > :05:40.this but no new tariff barriers because women are very generous
:05:41. > :05:43.offer with a Conte Boulez on WTO rules which we know works fine for
:05:44. > :05:48.us because that is what's we do with the rest of the world. The children
:05:49. > :05:51.references to the EU blackmailing the UK don't help our negotiating
:05:52. > :05:54.stand in fact they increased the risk of UK crashing out of the
:05:55. > :05:57.European Union. In those circumstances does the Secretary of
:05:58. > :06:01.State still agree with themselves on the need for a decision referendum
:06:02. > :06:03.which would allow people to vote on the terms of the deal or devote to
:06:04. > :06:04.stay in the European Union? A Labour MP returned
:06:05. > :06:15.to the exit bill. On the matter of the financial
:06:16. > :06:20.settlement does the Secretary of State believed that the European
:06:21. > :06:26.Union is blackmailing the UK? With the best will in the world I choose
:06:27. > :06:31.my own words and of course in the negotiation there are pressure
:06:32. > :06:32.points, but that is to be expected. David Davis.
:06:33. > :06:34.The Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson, has brushed aside
:06:35. > :06:37.criticism of President Trump's response to the North Korea crisis.
:06:38. > :06:41.Last week North Korea fired a missile over Japan -
:06:42. > :06:47.and on Sunday it said it had successfully tested a nuclear weapon
:06:48. > :06:50.that could be loaded on to a long-range missile.
:06:51. > :06:52.The secretive communist state said its sixth nuclear test
:06:53. > :06:57.Pyongyang said it had tested a hydrogen bomb -
:06:58. > :07:02.a device many times more powerful than an atomic bomb.
:07:03. > :07:04.Updating the Commons on the situation, Boris Johnson set
:07:05. > :07:12.out the gravity of the situation and called for calm diplomacy.
:07:13. > :07:19.The House must be under no illusion that this latest test marks another
:07:20. > :07:24.perilous advance in North Korea's nuclear ambitions. In a country
:07:25. > :07:29.blighted by decades of communist economic failure where in the 1990s
:07:30. > :07:36.hundreds of thousands of people died of starvation or reduced to eating
:07:37. > :07:39.grass and leaves to survive, the regime has squandered its resources
:07:40. > :07:44.on building an illegal armoury of nuclear bombs. He has will wish to
:07:45. > :07:49.join me in condemning the nuclear test that poses a grave threat to
:07:50. > :07:55.the security of every country in East Asia and the wider world. Will
:07:56. > :08:00.Britain be a voice of calm reason on the world stage by will we allow
:08:01. > :08:03.ourselves with Angela Merkel, she told the Gerry Mullan today that
:08:04. > :08:06.they can only be a peaceful and problematic solution and if the
:08:07. > :08:09.answer is yes and that is the route the Government takes they will have
:08:10. > :08:14.our full support. But if they pretend that military options,
:08:15. > :08:19.involving decapitation, annihilation, fire and fury, long
:08:20. > :08:24.anywhere but in the bin, if they swear blind loyalty to Donald Trump,
:08:25. > :08:29.no matter what appears he drags us towards, then they will be risking a
:08:30. > :08:32.hell of a lot more than just losing our support. The UK Government must
:08:33. > :08:36.use its much vaunted special relationship with the United States
:08:37. > :08:41.and influence as friend Donald Trump to drastically calm his rhetoric. If
:08:42. > :08:48.that relationship is organising, if the UK has any sort of influence, in
:08:49. > :08:51.the White House, they must use it now to walk President Trump back
:08:52. > :08:57.from the unacceptable threat he has made and to bring some modicum of
:08:58. > :09:00.rationality to his dialogue. It is clear that he whole house hopes
:09:01. > :09:04.overwhelmingly for a diplomatic solution to this crisis but the
:09:05. > :09:10.Foreign Secretary also stared that we stand by our allies. So on that
:09:11. > :09:15.point may I ask how they received any request for potential military
:09:16. > :09:22.support in South Korea, Japan or indeed the United States? And if so
:09:23. > :09:26.what has been our response? We have received no such request so far,
:09:27. > :09:30.Madam Deputy Speaker, and our intention is to try and avoid the
:09:31. > :09:35.circumstances in which such a request should be made. I want quiet
:09:36. > :09:38.diplomacy but can I get the message across to the Foreign Secretary that
:09:39. > :09:46.that means working with all our alleys? Yes, serious conversations
:09:47. > :09:49.with the United States, but is unavoidable, but also to all our
:09:50. > :09:53.friends and allies in Europe, but agree the Germans, French and others
:09:54. > :09:58.and particularly Nato, that we have heard very little about Nato over
:09:59. > :10:01.the recent days. When China is a voice of calm and even Russia is
:10:02. > :10:06.more measured than the US, it speaks volumes about the state of global
:10:07. > :10:09.diplomacy. I disagree with the Government cosying up to Donald
:10:10. > :10:15.Trump, but if there is to be any value in those actions surely the
:10:16. > :10:17.Foreign Secretary should use and violence to make President Donald
:10:18. > :10:22.Trump use his phone for talking instead of sending involuntary
:10:23. > :10:30.tweets into what is a fragile and precarious situation. I really must
:10:31. > :10:35.disagree powerfully with the honourable lady's assertion that
:10:36. > :10:40.somehow this crisis has been whipped up by the Americans for by the
:10:41. > :10:45.president by the White House when if you look at the history, not just in
:10:46. > :10:49.the last year but over the last ten years, 30 years, De Sart in a
:10:50. > :10:53.movement towards the acquisition of thermonuclear weapons by a rogue
:10:54. > :10:58.state and we have now come to a point where we have to use all the
:10:59. > :11:02.diplomatic and peaceful at our disposable to freeze that nuclear
:11:03. > :11:02.programme and ensure a peaceful solution.
:11:03. > :11:04.Peers were also quick to offer strong condemnation
:11:05. > :11:10.of North Korea's nuclear tests and their possible consequences.
:11:11. > :11:19.Isn't the realistic lesson of the Cold War that beyond usually assured
:11:20. > :11:22.destruction was a formidable campaigning to systematically
:11:23. > :11:27.encourage change from within? Isn't the greatest current danger the law
:11:28. > :11:34.of unintended consequences where a rogue missile or ugly bellicosity
:11:35. > :11:39.could have devastating and lethal consequences for millions of
:11:40. > :11:44.innocent people? I think it is clear that the global community affected
:11:45. > :11:47.by the United Nations and the United Nations Security Council believes
:11:48. > :11:51.the correct approach to this is a mixture of diplomatic and economic
:11:52. > :11:57.measures. Going back to play detected was some scepticism about
:11:58. > :12:00.the sanctions, I made courtroom at the UK permanent representative to
:12:01. > :12:04.the United Nations Matty Rycroft said yesterday and he said it is
:12:05. > :12:07.clear the sanctions are having an effect and he said those who doubt
:12:08. > :12:11.this impact would only read the statements coming from the North
:12:12. > :12:15.Korean regime, so these measures today are having an effect, the UK
:12:16. > :12:18.Government is currently in discussion with our global partners
:12:19. > :12:24.as to what further steps we might take. Sanctions that are but to
:12:25. > :12:29.affect only the ordinary people of North Korea have not chosen to eat
:12:30. > :12:33.grass, and the words of Vladimir Putin, actually a factor. What
:12:34. > :12:37.efforts has Her Majesty 's government undertaking to try and
:12:38. > :12:41.ensure that future sanctions actually target the leader and not
:12:42. > :12:47.the people of North Korea? The noble lady is right to allude to a very
:12:48. > :12:52.natural concern, the plight of the people of North Korea. There is
:12:53. > :12:57.every reason to imagine that their plight is very grave indeed. I
:12:58. > :13:00.shared the noble lady's concern. The UK is doing whatever it can through
:13:01. > :13:01.diplomatic channels to exercise influence.
:13:02. > :13:03.The United Nations says the number of Rohingya refugees
:13:04. > :13:05.crossing from Myanmar - also known as Burma -
:13:06. > :13:07.into Bangladesh has surged in recent days.
:13:08. > :13:10.The Rohingya are a stateless, mostly Muslim, ethnic
:13:11. > :13:19.minority who have faced persecution in Myanmar.
:13:20. > :13:21.More than 123,000 are now said to have fled violence

:13:27. > :13:28.The conflict was triggered by an attack by Rohingya

:14:11. > :14:17.I have to say, I'm a little bit disappointed by the response of the
:14:18. > :14:21.Minister in the way he started by suggesting as if somehow the
:14:22. > :14:26.Rohingya Muslims and these people had caused this to occur. He must be
:14:27. > :14:31.aware that in the last number of years, there has been a semester
:14:32. > :14:38.Matic rape and murder on burning and beheading of people of the Rohingya

:14:43. > :14:47.The international community is sidelined as they watch another one
:14:48. > :14:52.the envelope before our eyes is. Does the Minister agree that this
:14:53. > :14:56.situation requires urgent integration, and can he tell us what
:14:57. > :15:04.concrete action the Government and Prime Minister had taken today to
:15:05. > :15:08.deal with this? Very sorry to hear the honourable ladies are
:15:09. > :15:16.disappointed. We have miners of for some time and made it known through

:16:09. > :16:12.aspects within Burma and a lack of democracy as we would know it's
:16:13. > :16:17.going back five decades. And disappointed with the tone of the
:16:18. > :16:21.Minister, which sounded like dumping the blame for this ethnic cleansing

:19:42. > :19:44.into temporary or permanent homes continues to rise,
:19:45. > :19:47.but I know that the overall One reason for the low take-up
:19:48. > :19:53.of temporary home offers is that some residents simply don't
:19:54. > :19:57.want to move twice, and they have said
:19:58. > :20:00.that it is their preference to stay where they are until a permenant
:20:01. > :20:02.home becomes available. He said he didn't
:20:03. > :20:11.want to rush anyone. Meanwhile, residents who don't
:20:12. > :20:13.want to live in emergency accommodation for any
:20:14. > :20:15.longer than is necessary. Nor do I want families forced
:20:16. > :20:18.to move or make snap decisions simply so I

:21:29. > :21:30.we've been reminded today how vital this is by the reports of 20
:21:31. > :21:33.Grenfell Fire survivors who have tried to commit
:21:34. > :21:36.suicide since the fire. 12 weeks on, how on Earth
:21:37. > :21:41.can it be that only 29 households, 196 from
:21:42. > :21:49.Grenfell Tower and Grenfell Walk, What is the Secretary of State doing
:21:50. > :21:55.to speed this up, and when was all the survivors be offered
:21:56. > :22:01.permanent rehousing? The school year began today,
:22:02. > :22:03.and students are shortly beginning university from inadequate
:22:04. > :22:05.accommodation in hotels As will those of the young man
:22:06. > :22:14.who was also taking his GCSEs the morning of the fire, and arrived
:22:15. > :22:18.in his underwear at school, was given clothes to where,
:22:19. > :22:25.who didn't have the fabulous good fortune of the young
:22:26. > :22:27.woman you spoke about, has had no consideration,
:22:28. > :22:30.and has lost his place at school. The Justice Minister Dominic Raab
:22:31. > :22:32.has apologised for a policy requiring workers to fund the cost
:22:33. > :22:35.of taking legal action The Government introduced fees
:22:36. > :22:41.for employment tribunals in 2013 in order to reduce the number
:22:42. > :22:43.of cases considered The trade union, Unison,
:22:44. > :22:48.challenged the fees, arguing that they were
:22:49. > :22:51.denying people justice. And, in July, the Supreme Court
:22:52. > :22:58.ruled that the policy was unlawful. My constituents have highlighted
:22:59. > :23:00.the stress and financial burden placed on them
:23:01. > :23:02.in going through an employment tribunal case which
:23:03. > :23:06.they ultimately won. Can the minister ensure that those
:23:07. > :23:09.who are entitled to claim back under the tribunal freeze are made
:23:10. > :23:15.aware of the process and are reunited with their money
:23:16. > :23:21.in a timely fashion? I thank the honourable
:23:22. > :23:23.member for that question. He's absolutely right that it can be
:23:24. > :23:30.quite an ordeal to go to the employment tribunal or any
:23:31. > :23:32.tribunal, which is why pay tribute to the work
:23:33. > :23:34.of Acas and Conciliation. We're going to set out
:23:35. > :23:36.the practical arrangements for the reimbursement of those fees,
:23:37. > :23:40.and we want to make sure all the points, particular making
:23:41. > :23:42.people aware, are properly thought through before
:23:43. > :23:43.we do that. Was the decision to introduce the
:23:44. > :23:47.fees in the first place a mistake? We certainly accept
:23:48. > :23:48.the Supreme Court ruling. We've ended those fees and we're
:23:49. > :23:56.looking to make sure that, not only do we reimburse those that
:23:57. > :23:59.were affected, but we obviously Richard Burgon wrote
:24:00. > :24:02.to Justice Secretary, David Lidington, in July asking
:24:03. > :24:04.for a "full and unequivocal Last week, I received this
:24:05. > :24:12.wholly inadequate reply, but will the Minister apologise
:24:13. > :24:16.today for the suffering that this policy has caused to hundreds
:24:17. > :24:21.of thousands of working people? Look, we've admitted and conceded
:24:22. > :24:26.we got the balance wrong. I'm very sorry, I am happy to say,
:24:27. > :24:33.for any frustration or deleterious impact it's had on anyone that's
:24:34. > :24:35.been affected by this. That's why we have moved so quickly
:24:36. > :24:39.both to end the charges but also to make sure there are practical
:24:40. > :24:41.arrangements for the reimbursement Finally, the start of
:24:42. > :24:48.a new Parliament gives MPs the chance to put
:24:49. > :24:50.forward their own bills that they'd Well, two Conservatives took full
:24:51. > :24:57.advantage of the system. Veteran backbencher,
:24:58. > :24:59.Christopher Chope, put down nearly 50, covering
:25:00. > :25:02.everything from funding the NHS to voter registration,
:25:03. > :25:04.and the classification His fellow Conservative, Peter Bone,
:25:05. > :25:12.introduced nearly 30 bills he'd Again, he had a wide agenda,
:25:13. > :25:17.with ambitions for child safety, regulating drones and oversight
:25:18. > :25:21.of the BBC. Whilst a handful of the bills
:25:22. > :25:24.might make it to debate on a sitting Friday,
:25:25. > :25:27.without Government backing, And that's it from me for now,
:25:28. > :25:35.but do join me at the same time tomorrow when Theresa May faces
:25:36. > :25:37.Jeremy Corbyn for the first Prime Minister's Questions
:25:38. > :25:41.since the summer break. But for now from me,
:25:42. > :25:45.Alicia McCarthy, goodbye.
