It sets out UK's Brexit talks strategy
Labour’s Harriet Harman talks to Jane Garvey about her regret for not standing for leadership of the party. She says: “I should’ve done. There was a moment in 2010 where I was nailing Prime Minister's Questions, I was universally popular in the party and everybody was saying why don’t you stand for it?”

Alex Salmond, the SNP's international affairs spokesman, says George Osborne's speech was "shorter and a great deal less lucrative than the ones he's used to giving these days".
He accuses the former chancellor of taking "perfectly reasonable" Treasury forecasts and turning them into "apocalyptic, emergency budget, day of judgement scaremongering" during the referendum campaign.
He argues that referendum campaigns are won on more than "fear".
And he also accuses Theresa May of failing to criticise the US immigration crackdown in case it "offends some new bestie in the White House".
The secretary of state rules out the possibility of Northern Ireland having special status after Brexit.

Tory MP George Osborne argues that the referendum only mandated the UK to leave the EU.
Other questions, such as the future trading relationship, have been "entrusted to us" in Parliament, he says.
The former chancellor predicts that the negotiations ahead will be "rather bitter".
He also advises Brexit Secretary David Davis to "be well briefed and to pack a pack of Pro Plus because there are going to be some very long nights ahead" facing the EU's chief negotiator, Michel Barnier.

Former chancellor George Osborne is up next.
He says he campaigned for the UK to remain in the EU because he believed that leaving would "diminish Britain on the world stage" and weaken the EU, which "has been vital to our security".
He also laments that Brexit has been likened to "other isolationist and nativist movements around the world".
There are, shall we say, some noises of dissent when Mr Osborne says "I sacrificed my position in government" over his support of a remain vote.
The Conservative MP was sacked from the cabinet when Theresa May became prime minister.
The International Trade Secretary Liam Fox has said he would not allow the NHS to be opened up to foreign companies as part of any post-Brexit trade deal.
Giving evidence to the Commons International Trade Committee, he described the idea as an "urban myth" on par with "alligators in the sewers".
Mr Fox told MPs that it had never been part of the UK’s approach to go into trade agreements and sacrifice the right of governments to have the ability and right to regulate public services.
Pressed by the panel on whether the NHS was “off limits” in any future trade deal - Mr Fox said “as the person in charge of negotiating that, it would not be happening on my watch”.

Ed Miliband criticises the government's approach to US President Donald Trump.
The former Labour leader says he can accept that "Brexit means Brexit" but he adds: "I cannot go along with the idea that Brexit means Trump."
Referring the the US immigration crackdown, he says: "We should be standing in solidarity with our European allies in calling for this ban to end."
And he adds that there should be "no question" of leaving the European Convention on Human Rights.

A couple of Labour MPs intervene on Ed Miliband to raise concerns about the economic consequences of Brexit.
One of them is Rupa Huq, who suggests that "there may be a crock of something at the end of the rainbow but it may not be gold".

Former Labour leader Ed Miliband kicks off day two of the debate, calling on everyone to "respect the way in which colleagues on all sides of the House are wrestling with their consciences" over how to vote later.
Mr Miliband says Labour under his leadership did not support David Cameron's policy of holding a referendum and explains why.
"The country had many, many other problems that it faced," he says, and he believed a referendum would "become as much about the state of the country" than about the EU.
However, the Labour MP says he will vote to trigger the Brexit process as otherwise there is a risk that "people who voted for Brexit because they are being ignored are being ignored again".

MPs resume debate on the European Union (Notification of Withdrawal) Bill.
The bill would authorise the government to begin the negotiation process to leave the EU.
Voting on the bill is expected to begin at 7pm. The SNP has tabled an amendment opposing the bill and some MPs from other parties are expected to support it.
Some Labour MPs, most Liberal Democrats and at least one Conservative - the staunchly pro-EU Ken Clarke - are expected to vote against the bill.
BBC Radio 5 live
A man who set up a petition backing US President Donald Trump's state visit to the UK has said he is "very proud" that the issue will be debated by MPs.
Alan Brown created the petition, signed by more than 200,000 people, with his 13-year-old daughter after another petition, signed by 1.7 million, called for the state visit to be cancelled.
Mr Brown, 68, told Radio 5Live's Emma Barnett show that the UK would be "very honoured" to host Mr Trump.
He claimed supporters of the rival petition were "decrying free speech".
The petitions come amid controversy over an executive order by Mr Trump halting the US refugee programme for 120 days and stopping the issuing of visas to nationals of seven mainly Muslim countries.
Mr Brown's petition argues Mr Trump's state visit should go ahead because the UK "supports free speech".
Laura Kuenssberg says Jeremy Corbyn has decided to take a strong line on the state visit and it is now "crystal clear" from a letter he wrote to Theresa May that he wants it to be stopped.
On that point, she suggests the image of him waving what he said was Theresa May's reply around in the Commons earlier was designed to "evoke" memories of Neville Chamberlain and his "peace for our time" pledge after he returned from meeting Adolf Hitler in 1938.
Buckingham Palace has been in touch with Daily Politics to say only two US Presidents have strictly been afforded state visits. Laura Kuenssberg says there is a lively debate about what constitutes a state visit.
She notes that a Chinese official told her that what President Xi Jinping wanted above all in 2014 was a picture of him with the Duchess of Cambridge and, rather bizarrely, a shot of him with a Dalek.
Labour's John Healey says Mr Trump's policies are wrong but if he does come to the UK, he should be allowed to address the Houses of Parliament.
Ten minute rule bill
House of Commons
Parliament
After PMQs - and before the "Brexit bill" debate resumes - Conservative MP Peter Aldous introduces a ten minute rule bill.
He has up to 10 minutes to make a speech in support of his bill to "require the inclusion on vehicle fuel receipts of the amounts of each tax paid [and] to require all retail fuel pumps to display the amounts of taxes paid when dispensing fuel".
The prime minister's talk of a frictionless Irish border after Brexit is dismissed as "nice words", says a customs expert.
