:04:25. > :04:29.culture within a place such as Brook House. But there are wider, broader
:04:30. > :04:33.issues around immigration detention, for instance, in Brook House, as
:04:34. > :04:38.with other detention sentence, they have a mix of ex-offenders who are
:04:39. > :04:41.being difficult -- deported from the country, along with asylum seekers,

:06:09. > :06:11.trying to exact a price for moving on from the first stage of Brexit
:06:12. > :06:16.negotiations. We can't be blackmailed into paying a price on
:06:17. > :06:19.the first part. We think that we should begin discussions on the
:06:20. > :06:23.final settlement, because that's good for business. At issue is the
:06:24. > :06:29.divorce bill for leaving the EU. But Hitachi press conference in Brussels
:06:30. > :06:39.yesterday, the European Commission's chief
:06:40. > :06:43.negotiator argued that wider trade talks could begin only after Britain
:06:44. > :06:46.gave an indication of how much it was willing to pay. Liam Fox told
:06:47. > :06:49.the BBC that businesses were getting frustrated. What we need to do is to
:06:50. > :06:51.begin in parallel talk about what the final solution to the trading
:06:52. > :06:54.relationship is going to look like and it's very clear that businesses,
:06:55. > :06:56.not just in Europe, but investors in places like here in Japan, are
:06:57. > :07:01.getting impatient. Liam Fox gave a series of broadcast interviews in
:07:02. > :07:05.Japan but only made the accusation of EU blackmail once. That suggests
:07:06. > :07:10.it wasn't a pre-scripted attack. Nonetheless it could be a sign of
:07:11. > :07:13.frustration that the government was Mac strategy, to put more pressure
:07:14. > :07:17.on the European Commission to deliver trade talks this autumn, so
:07:18. > :07:21.far hasn't succeeded. And some in Brussels are blaming Britain for any
:07:22. > :07:25.delay. I'd like to remind Mr Fox that the referendum happened in June
:07:26. > :07:31.20 16. It took nine months for the British government to trickle
:07:32. > :07:34.Article 50, so nine months to shape its positions and now it's been six
:07:35. > :07:38.months and we've yet to make any serious progress. And some
:07:39. > :07:42.opposition politicians here are claimed -- claiming that Liam Fox's
:07:43. > :07:48.talk of blackmail will simply make matters worse. His language is
:07:49. > :07:51.intensely unhelpful. This is sabre rattling from the trade secretary
:07:52. > :07:56.who is twiddling his thumbs, because he cannot do anything until the
:07:57. > :08:00.trade position of the UK has been resolved with the EU. There's been a
:08:01. > :08:05.lot of talk about what businesses want from Brexit. Well, they say
:08:06. > :08:09.less of a slanging match and more substance, please. This is politics
:08:10. > :08:12.so there will always be a bit of bluster and gameplaying by both
:08:13. > :08:16.sides. I think businesses would like to see both sides maybe tone it down
:08:17. > :08:20.a little bit and get back to focusing on those issues which
:08:21. > :08:32.matter so much to both sides. This week the government
:08:33. > :08:36.focused on its trading relationship with Japan. But it's our future
:08:37. > :08:37.trade link across the channel that is proving harder to negotiate. Iain

:08:57. > :09:00.friends. He's promised a speech that is optimistic, that sets out what he
:09:01. > :09:04.sees as a potential deepening of the relationship between Britain and the
:09:05. > :09:08.United States post-Brexit. It's worth remembering that the amount of
:09:09. > :09:11.foreign investment in Britain, from America and vice versa, really
:09:12. > :09:15.dwarfs that from most other countries, most other individual
:09:16. > :09:19.countries. So there's quite a lot at stake. Donald Trump said in the last
:09:20. > :09:22.few weeks that there are discussions ongoing, when he was asked that
:09:23. > :09:27.directly. He says there would be a major deal with Britain after
:09:28. > :09:30.Brexit, but it's worth noting that at the moment what actually is
:09:31. > :09:35.occupying the American government is discussions over the north of North
:09:36. > :09:39.American Free Trade Agreement, Nafta, renegotiating that, and big
:09:40. > :09:43.rows with China on trade. Whether Britain will get as good looking

:10:07. > :10:08.to move on as quickly as possible from talking about past obligations
:10:09. > :10:12.to talking about a future partnership with the EU. But there's
:10:13. > :10:17.a long road ahead and it's going to get bumpy. The EU's chief negotiator
:10:18. > :10:20.Michel Barnier said yesterday there had been no decisive progress on any
:10:21. > :10:23.of the main issues. In other words, for
:10:24. > :10:25.the moment, it's no go. So a quick reminder about the issues
:10:26. > :10:29.on which the EU says progress has to be made before it will talk more
:10:30. > :10:32.about the futur First, the status of EU citizens in the UK
:10:33. > :10:35.and UK citizens elsewhere in Europe. There was some progress this week -
:10:36. > :10:38.confirmation that after Brexit these citizens will still be able
:10:39. > :10:40.to use their EHIC There's no agreement on that,
:10:41. > :10:44.though, for the rest of us. And here's the overall sticking
:10:45. > :10:46.point - who would have legal authority over any deal
:10:47. > :10:48.on citizens' rights. The UK says that's not
:10:49. > :10:54.acceptable after Brexit. The second major focus
:10:55. > :10:56.at the moment is the border between Northern Ireland
:10:57. > :10:58.and the Irish Republic. The UK says it wants to maintain
:10:59. > :11:01.an "invisible border" after Brexit, with no physical infrastructure,
:11:02. > :11:04.and there were, we're told, "good But while the EU understands
:11:05. > :11:10.the sensitivities on the border, it says frictionless trade
:11:11. > :11:12.is impossible once the UK leaves the single market
:11:13. > :11:25.and the customs union. The toughest issue of all, money.
:11:26. > :11:29.What are the UK's financial obligations to the EU when it
:11:30. > :11:33.leaves. The EU could be looking for a net amount after some money comes
:11:34. > :11:36.back to the UK of as much as 60 billion euros is, that is based
:11:37. > :11:40.largely on commitments the UK has already made. But the UK questioned
:11:41. > :11:43.the legal basis of these calculations and it went through
:11:44. > :11:49.them line by line this week. It is not prepared to pay nearly as much.
:11:50. > :11:53.So to get to whether UK wants to be, talking about this future trade
:11:54. > :11:56.relationship, a lot of progress will have to be made in the next few
:11:57. > :12:00.weeks before the leaders of the other 27 EU countries meet for a
:12:01. > :12:04.summit in Brussels. That will take place on the 19th and 20th of
:12:05. > :12:08.October, when they'll make a decision one way or another. If they
:12:09. > :12:11.don't think sufficient progress is being made, they won't meet again
:12:12. > :12:15.until just before Christmas. That would make substantive talks on
:12:16. > :12:17.trade not beginning until well into the New Year come with time ticking

:20:39. > :20:49.Important to note that this Commission was put in place after
:20:50. > :20:52.weeks of protests, sometimes daily protests. The judges told to look at
:20:53. > :21:01.the entire electoral process, it's not just what happened on voting day

:23:56. > :23:59.The most expensive football transfer window ever closed,
:24:00. > :24:04.with Premier League clubs parting with an eyewatering ?1.4 billion.
:24:05. > :24:06.Our sports correspondent David Ornstein has been
:24:07. > :24:18.The culmination of a summer of unprecedented spending. Although
:24:19. > :24:23.transfer deadline day may largely be remembered for huge deals that
:24:24. > :24:31.didn't quite happen, there was still plenty of significant bits of
:24:32. > :24:34.business done. The most high profile look Alex Oxlade Chamberlain to
:24:35. > :24:40.Liverpool for ?35 million. The same figure was spent by Chelsea to sign
:24:41. > :24:45.Danny Drinkwater from the previous champions Leicester. Finally
:24:46. > :24:57.confirmed two-and-a-half hours after the 11pm deadline. It was a mixed
:24:58. > :25:04.night for Chelsea. They were beaten to the signing of Swansea's Fernando
:25:05. > :25:10.Llrrente. According to figures released by Deloitte, clubs spent
:25:11. > :25:14.?1. 4 billion on players this summer, including a record ?210
:25:15. > :25:18.million on deadline day alone. The transfer spending has grown well in
:25:19. > :25:23.line with revenues the clubs have at disposal. In any given year they
:25:24. > :25:28.spend between a fifth and a third of their revenue on transfers. Among
:25:29. > :25:32.those whose moves failed to materialise were Sanchez from
:25:33. > :25:36.Arsenal to Manchester City, and Ross Barkley from Everton to Chelsea. But
:25:37. > :25:39.fear not, they'll soon have another chance to resolve their futures
:25:40. > :25:46.because the transfer window reopens on 1st January.

:25:51. > :25:55.Basildon Crown Court heard that convicted burglar, Jack O'Brien,

:26:33. > :26:35.pack into the stadium tonight, it's a sellout, more than 3,000 are
:26:36. > :26:39.travelling England fans. It will feel louder for England such is
:26:40. > :26:44.their popularity here. One player who won't be playing for England
:26:45. > :26:47.tonight is Wayne Rooney. He announced hisser in retirement but
:26:48. > :26:51.is still making headlines. He was arrested near his Cheshire home last
:26:52. > :26:54.night for drink driving. He has been charged, released on bail and will
:26:55. > :26:58.appear in court later this month. More on that when we have it. Gareth
:26:59. > :27:03.Southgate made it clear last night he is in no rush to try to appoint a
:27:04. > :27:06.permanent replacement as captain for Wayne Rooney. He has tried five
:27:07. > :27:10.different players as captain in his time in charge. He wants to make it
:27:11. > :27:14.clear that he wants all players to step up, shoulder the responsibility
:27:15. > :27:17.of perhaps being captain and be leaders. If fans were hoping to see
:27:18. > :27:22.new faces tonight they might be disappointed. As you said, he has
:27:23. > :27:25.confirmed that Joe Hart will continue as England's goalkeeper. He
:27:26. > :27:29.feels he is the best player in that position despite conceding ten goals
:27:30. > :27:36.in his first three games for West Ham. Elsewhere in the group,
:27:37. > :27:41.Scotland are away to Lithuania in a must-win game. They have a chance or
:27:42. > :27:46.hope of making that play-off spot. Northern Ireland are looking to
:27:47. > :27:53.strengthen their hand in Group C with a win away against San Marino.
:27:54. > :27:56.Gareth Southgate started his England career with a 2-0 win over Malta. He
:27:57. > :27:59.is hoping that will continue but there will be strong questions
:28:00. > :28:03.coming his way. Now the humble vacuum cleaner
:28:04. > :28:05.is causing something of a stir. Sales of the noisiest and most

:29:34. > :29:36.lower than they would be Now vacuum cleaners
:29:37. > :29:43.must play their part. People think that if it's a very
:29:44. > :29:47.high wattage than it's going to be a super-duper cleaner,
:29:48. > :29:49.but that's not necessarily the case. Manufacturers have known for a long
:29:50. > :29:52.time that this has been coming, so they will have been working very
:29:53. > :29:57.hard on design and technology to make sure that the new generation

:30:24. > :30:26.better for people, yeah. Before the Brexit referendum, the EU
:30:27. > :30:30.postponed new standards on toasters. The Government says it
:30:31. > :30:33.supports energy efficiency, but it won't say if EU rules
:30:34. > :30:54.will still apply after Brexit. Time for a look at the weather
:30:55. > :30:59.prospects. Nick Miller has joined me.
:31:00. > :31:03.Hi, you may have noticed a chill in the air this morning. The start of
:31:04. > :31:07.meet logical autumn. We have started to have problems with the pictures
:31:08. > :31:10.behind me, we will sort those out. This is one picture from one of our
:31:11. > :31:13.weather watchers showing plenty of sunshine. Yes, it's a chilly start
:31:14. > :31:17.but there has been some sunshine around there to compensate and here
:31:18. > :31:20.is a view from Pembrokeshire, as well. Glorious blue sky. We are
:31:21. > :31:24.seeing cloud building here and there. More especially across parts
:31:25. > :31:28.of Scotland, and Northern Ireland so far today. North-west England and
:31:29. > :31:33.Wales there have been a few showers. Some of these will fade. They'll
:31:34. > :31:37.remain isolated here. But we are watching south-east Scotland and
:31:38. > :31:40.across the Pennines, north-east England and down through the
:31:41. > :31:44.Midlands for maybe a few heavier ones to get going this afternoon.
:31:45. > :31:47.But the most of us across southern England, Wales into the Midlands
:31:48. > :31:50.will continue with good sunny spells. It feels pleasantly warm in
:31:51. > :31:55.some sunshine with light winds. Eastern parts of England, could be
:31:56. > :31:59.the odd heavy and maybe thundery shower. North-west England, after a
:32:00. > :32:03.dull start it may stay cloudy in Northern Ireland, mainly dry across
:32:04. > :32:07.Scotland. A chance of a shower in the south-east. I have talked about
:32:08. > :32:11.showers, but please most places are going to be dry with sunny spells
:32:12. > :32:14.around. If you get a shower in eastern England it could linger into
:32:15. > :32:18.the night for some but elsewhere it will be dry and clear and chilly
:32:19. > :32:24.again overnight. These are town city centre temperatures. You don't have
:32:25. > :32:29.to go too far away to get something lower than this. Single figures in
:32:30. > :32:33.places and some places flirting with freezing into Saturday morning. This
:32:34. > :32:36.takes us on to the weekend. For Saturday, although it will be chilly
:32:37. > :32:41.again to begin the day, good sunny spells coming through. A bit of
:32:42. > :32:43.cloud building here and there. Odd light showers especially into
:32:44. > :32:47.eastern England but the vast majority will have a fine dry start
:32:48. > :32:52.to the weekend, although you will later notice the breeze picking up
:32:53. > :32:57.in Northern Ireland and temperatures fairly similar. No excessive heat
:32:58. > :33:00.but in the sunshine it will feel pleasant. The later you are going
:33:01. > :33:05.out on Saturday night in Northern Ireland, you might see rain coming
:33:06. > :33:11.in, things are changing from the west. Weather fronts are moving in,
:33:12. > :33:17.but it's a slow process, the wind picking up. So a wet start to
:33:18. > :33:19.Sunday, Northern Ireland, the rain pushing into Wales, south-west
:33:20. > :33:23.England. Gales through the Irish sea. Rain moving into western
:33:24. > :33:26.Scotland too. Some eastern Scotland, eastern England, although it clouds
:33:27. > :33:33.over and the breeze picks up, will stay dry during the day. It's a
:33:34. > :33:39.weekend of two halves. An east-west split on Sunday. There is a forecast
:33:40. > :33:43.for where you are or where you will be this weekend online.
