game so let me start out by asking you alex you say that boris johnson appears to have lost control but appearances can be deceiving how does he actually perhaps overplayed his hand or could it be that he is playing into the hands of his. and could he wind up winning the end game. well i think we can't write him often and this is my point particularly because he has some very strong characters behind him who are very good at the da cause she say so we can't write him off at the moment it looks like those who are opposing a no deal breck's it including those who want to remain in the e.u. are winning the game they've always they done very well in parliament by defeating him in these votes this week which has been a very difficult time for the prime minister given how he has been promised of the such a short amount of time so it has not been an easy week for him but he is still prime minister and he does still have a concept his sleeve i believe and i do not think that we can say that this is the end game for boris johnson let me ask you just very briefly could one of those cards stil

whatsoever boris johnson is just trying to threaten the e.u. he is not going to the e.u. with any sort of sensible and worked out proposals and the e.u. is sitting maker and what we make of this how do we possibly deal with someone like that who's essentially trying to threaten us rather than negotiate with just him and now speaking as a german looking at this situation and also with an incoming head of the e.u. commission who is herself a former german politician what do you think how much leeway and how much political will is there in brussels to try to find a different solution for the so-called irish backstop i do think there still is a portion of goodwill in brussels not to have the situation deteriorating and. voices in brussels saying maybe we were not totally corresponding to prime minister may at the time ever she wanted to get it through the house we could have been more generous and so i think even was on the other side if there is something rational on the way we could just i mean is there any real opening if you look at the law her

is boris johnson harming british democracy. let me put that question straight away to john worse weather of boris johnson is harming british democracy is certainly some people said as he suspended parliament essentially sending it on a forced and link the vacation that that amounts to a coke. i think the quality kerr is props exaggerates needs somewhat but nevertheless inflicted to have parliament not sitting for five weeks in the middle of a political crisis it is an extremely worrying development and its basic piece of boris johnson can avoid a parliamentary scrutiny so essentially he's trying to push pullman to way because he knows the parliamentarians don't really support his brakes it plans now what we seen this week and we'll see more next week at least it's opponents fighting back. is trying to use the little times goes available to bowling bars from sometimes as much as possible but it's a very delicate situation i'm i'm win not yet certain whether parliament what she win that battle against four strands please tell in

boris johnson's reconstituted conservatives be in the best position to rally those who want to leave going forward what you say there is exactly what natural fraud would like like to think bear in mind however that british elections require lots of seats on the ground lots of local campaigners and that's what the conservatives at least called for break that policy is much more of a media operation it's very it's very polished in the way it comes over but it can actually do election campaigning on the ground and that's why essentially boris johnson's pitch is essentially to those votes as to who voted for the brakes and part of european elections in may come back to the conservatives with a real brick city is now and to try is trying to unite all of those programs the voters behind the conservative policy he thinks the next election will be fought on breaks it rather than being forced on other topics and that's he's clear pitch come back to the conservatives we have the true bright city is now ok thanks very much and again we're going to take a deeper look at that in just a moment the

s conservative rebels voting in opposition off boris johnson off their own prime minister and boris johnson wouldn't be boris johnson if you didn't react quite harshly after that overnight he stripped those m.p.'s that defected to spotty off their whip which essentially kicks them out of the conservative party so in the next general election those conservative m.p.'s i'm not allowed to stand for the tories no longer so high drama in the house of commons and in the conservative party for sure where does this go today. well political commentators wondering where does this go there's one thing we know for sure is that the commons today will vote on whether to force boris johnson to delay breck's it so they want to vote on a bill that would that would force boris johnson's hands vote for a bill that would force boris johnson to extend breck's to the brics a deadline which we feel of course seen in the past to january 31st another 3 months so if those if this bill goes through by law boris johnson would have to go back to the european union and say we do need another extension of course boris jo

with boris johnson about a trade deal. is he breaking eu rules? does that even matter at this point? mij: i think what trump does at this point matters little or nothing. boris is really stuck in a corner that he and his advisor have painted him into. it is very hard to see a way forward for boris. either he does a deal at the european council that converges on the version of theresa may's agreement, or he has to request an extension of article 50, or someone in his government has to, and it looks as if there will be an election after him having not delivered on his pledge to take the u.k. out on 31 october. so always forward for him but very challenging. donald trump can't save him. mij -- sorry, guy, go ahead. guy: sorry, bonnie. -- sorry, vonnie. vonnie: mij, what happens to sterling from here? mij: after 18 october, if there is a deal at the european council, and it is unlikely there will be a deal, what happens on 19 october? he or some but he has to send a letter requesting an extension. either he can seek to resign,

boris johnson wants a commons, what is he left with? borisjohnson wants a general election and he wants one quickly. because he can't govern, he is suffering endless defeats in the commons, he cannot be certain that he is going to be able to deliver on his central pledge to take us out of the eu on october the 31st come what may. he wants a general election but the problem is he doesn't have the numbers to secure one because under the current rules you need two thirds of mps to vote for an early general election. he doesn't have those numbers. he has got a real problem. what he is trying to do now is to shame jeremy problem. what he is trying to do now is to shamejeremy corbyn into backing an early election so later today when he does a big speech he is going to accuse him of being a coward, of running away of a general election. that was the kind of language we had this morning from the chancellor. we've been clear that we cannot have another extension. we cannot dither and delay. we have to leave on october the 315t. that uncertainty

what do you think boris johnson should do? the reality is boris has lost control of events and the only way he can get control is to have a vote of no confidence in the house, to say we now need a general election. he calls a vote of no confidence in himself? the labour party are petrified of an election, the lib dems don't want one. what boris should do is say, let's get an election, you have to change the fixed—term parliaments act, so you have to have a quick one or two day bill. challenge the other side. why won't you go to the people? the way to do that is to say, let's have a vote of no—confidence in the next few days and have an election in the first fortnight of november. would it bea first fortnight of november. would it be a good look? under the fixed—term parliaments act he can't do that, only the leader of the 0pposition is able to call under the fixed terms parliament act. what we could do is try to put a one line bill through saying notwithstanding the fixed term parliaments out there will be an election on

but boris johnson is different. he isa but boris johnson is different. he is a brexiteer, so great. what don't you agree with him? we want results. until he comes back with a good deal, not a rehash of may's deal or leaving with a clean brexit, that we would prefer, a clean brexit is not necessarily what boris johnson is after at the moment. a rehash of may's deal is not what we support.l general election could be a close run thing. if you take enough vote 5 from the tories, the brexit party could scupper brexit. you say that, we made an offer, we put country before party and we would step down in areas where there could be brexit supporting mps. so the ball lies in boris johnson's court. supporting mps. so the ball lies in borisjohnson's court. if he wants to split the vote, the blame lies with him. you have no mps, he has lots of mps, he needs more to deliver brexit. you want him to deliver brexit. you want him to deliver brexit. you want him to deliver brexit. he is closer to you than theresa may ever was. in rhetoric. well also, it doesn't matter what hits him, he has still the

leave campaigners and boris johnson supporters in the u.k. find that acceptable boris johnson has promised to solve the issue but in ireland they want specific proposals what we cannot do and will not do and i know you understand this is a great as the replacement of a legal guarantee with a promise our businesses need long term certainty and the people of this island north and south need to know that their livelihoods their security under sense of identity will not be put at risk as a consequence of bragg's us boris johnson is gambling that a no deal brags that threat will make e.u. leaders change the divorce deal and if they don't move he wants everyone to share the blame i looked carefully at no deal i was just its consequences both our country and and yours and yes of course we could do it but be in no doubt that outcome would be a failure state crowd for which we would all be responsible for its johnson lives island without any concrete progress the neighbors have not solved the border problem yet. and for the latest on what is unfolding

how big a defeatist this for enris johnson's gover >> huge. -- h big a defeat is this for boris johnson's government? >> huge. they are stopping ese people from standing again in another election. a pretty jerk coney and measure --raconian measure. 'boris johnson'hero is winston churchill. this is painful stuff. the government has been defeated. try to explain what this means in the big picture. it means thatomorrow, the mp rather than the executive take control of the agenda. britain will not leave the european union with no deal and they will have to come law. that is not what number 10 wants. if you do that, you will have a general election. laura: they have to back a geeyral election, don't >' britain'unwritten constitution means that we are make -- along.g it up as we go i know with certainty what is going to happen next. but what seems to be the case is that boris johnson will not act it -- enact it. and will say that i want to have an election. yeerday, boris johnson said the last thing that in want is election. what they really meant to say is that boris johnson once an election a

boris johnson has promised to solve the issue. in ireland, they want specific proposals. >> lots we cannot and will not do. the replacement of a promise is not on. we need long-term certainty. the people in the north and south need to know their livelihoods, security and sense of identity will not be put at risk as a consequence of brexit. >> bororis johnson is gambling that a no deal brexit threat will make eu leaders change the divorce deal. if they don't move, he wants everyone to share the blame. >> i look carefully at no deal and the consequences both for our country and yours. we could do it, but to be in no doubt, it would be a failure of statecraft, for which we all would be responsible. >> boris johnson leaves ireland without any concrete progress. the neighbors have not solve the border problem yet. -- solved the water problem yet. brent: we are joined by our reporter, barbara. those two met, and they were talking basically past each other. is there any hope for ireland and the u.k. to solve the border issue before the u

johnson lot of bluster a lot of humor and wit but no real answers no and that's what boris johnson is very good at and he is very good at turning a difficult question into an answer that he's amusing he has his key lines talking about this bill that the opposition and these rebel m.p.'s are trying to force through parliament today he's calling it to jeremy corbyn your surrender bill in other words you are trying to make britain surrender to the european union always using war analogies the whole time this is what he has always done this is what he's trying to do here and then talking about it is there and delay you don't want it to happen you just want to there and delay whereas i am saying whatever happens we will be out on october the 31st but you're right he didn't answer any of those key questions there are many fears about what will happen if there is a no deal breck's it talk there about the yellow how my documents will these are documents that the government themselves have produced so it's been done within white to within the civil service and they have been leaked out into th

he was defiant but now boris johnson looks caught in the tight corner the u.k. leader was told he can't force brags that without a deal he's got the parliament suspended but his bid for a snap election is rejected so what are his options now this is inside story. hello and welcome to the program i'm homage enjoy him only a few days ago he said he would rather die in a ditch than ask the e.u. for an extension to briggs in negotiations but it seems boris johnson may have to admit defeat and find another way to deal with his deeply divided government his attempt to call an early election has been thrown out and parliament suspended for the next 5 weeks he needed more than 430 votes to get a snap election he only got 293 that's left him in a tight corner if he wants the u.k. to leave the block on october 31st so where does this leave it could there be a 2nd referendum and what will opposition parties do next we have lots to get into with our guests but 1st lawrence lee reports on a dramatic night in british politics. mr speaker the lord's will also right by how much

well boris johnson is in new york right now for the u.n. general assembly and he will hear about this ruling at 5 30 am his time so i'm sure somebody will wake him up but that he is holding a really big feature night before the u.n. general assembly with all the world leaders assembled there so it would be quite a. thing if you use this this case and if indeed the supreme court was ruling that he misled the queen by advising her to suspend a palm and so that would be a very big blow to boris johnson and of course there would be pressure on him to resign he has indicated though last night in new york that he is not thinking about that but you know of course would follow the ruling of the supreme court but that he is not thinking about resigning just yet ok now he has promised of course to take britain out of the you one way or the other part over the 31st everything is about as you mentioned for a lot what would this court's decision mean for the brics a process. well if you win so nothing changes he'll negotiate his deal or he try at least

johnson for an extension that's one for the birds boris johnson is trying to do is set up a narrative which is going to be a cornerstone of a general election campaign which is i want to deliver bracks that for you but north of the parliament won't let me do it so i think in some ways to see your general election is cold and for by late but the better the chances are winning the parliament and nasty jeremy coburn of course in the end there's nothing to suggest certainly not in the polls that an election will solve anything that an election will go the way of jeremy corbin in the labor party do you think heads are turning within labor circles now towards coalition what what what what are they thinking doing i mean we'll see how what happens on. election day but i don't recall in the heady days of 2017 when labor were 27 points behind in the polls to reason may was told the she called a general election she wouldn't just increase her majority she could crush labor once and for all and we'll see how that one went because the elections are not like referendums they are not single issue ca

boris johnson came out and said he will abide by it. listen to what he had to say. >> obviously, this is a verdict we will respect. we respect the judicial process. i strongly disagree with what the justices have found. i do not think it is right. we will go ahead and -- parliament will come back. david: he is about to hop on an airplane to rush back to london. what comes next for boris johnson? >> that is the big question. to be told by the highest court in the land he had acted unlawfully, that he gave unlawful advice to the queen, that has led to calls from some opposition leaders including jeremy corbyn to resign. david: i'm so sorry. we now have playback from prime minister boris johnson. just moments ago. >> results are going to start to show in november. it looks to be that he is making great progress. it is an honor to have you with us discussing trade. we can quadruple trade with the u.k. we can do a big job. our trade representative is here. your trade representative is here. we will continue negotiations. we can have substant

johnson might send them and he has provoked parliament is that boris johnson might send them on vacation on a break and then push those general elections back to november 1st so one day off the u.k. has left the european union possibly if it is after boris johnson's opinion possibly after that day where the u.k. has left the european union with no deal with the heartbreak said so we'll have to see where this leads today but a general election does seem very likely and if it comes to that it will be more of a referendum again on whether to stay in the european union or not a question that really has divided this country over the past 2 years max there's a good chance that you will see the e.u. for another extension of the brig's that deadline will you groet. this is going to be a topic in any case we expect that at least 1st of all because of what's happening in the house of commons right now that some might be forced by parliament to do that but even in the case of snap elections you might have a new government that will have a very ready little time to sort things out so this is likely

boris johnson suffering been an historic day in parliament. borisjohnson suffering two major setbacks today for his brexit strategy. early this evening a cross— party strategy. early this evening a cross—party group of mps was successful in passing a bill to prevent a no—deal brexit. the bill is going to the house of lords and would force the prime minister to do something he has repeatedly ruled out, asking the eu for another brexit delay unless a deal is secured. the prime minister's response was to call for a general election with the date of october the 15th but he failed to get sufficient support for that when mps voted in the last hour or so. laura kuenssberg has his report. the prime minister is demanding a new election but he says he doesn't wa nt new election but he says he doesn't want one. the other parties say that they do but they may stand in his way. it won't be settled until the commons closes the door the possibility that boris johnson could ta ke possibility that boris johnson could take us out of the eu next month with

boris johnson shutting down of parliament is unlawful u.k. supreme court rules in a unanimous decision. i mean this is al jazeera live from doha also coming up 40 people including children are killed at an afghan wedding as u.s. backed forces targeted a nearby taliban hideout. at least 26 people were killed in indonesia's popular region after racism allegations violent protests. a divisive legacy spain's top court says the remains of dictator francisco franco should be examined from a state was only in. the last 6 consecutive brock's it related votes in parliament in just 2 months in office before shutting it down and now that decision by boys johnson has been declared unlawful by the united kingdom's highest court this court has already concluded that the prime minister's advice to her majesty was unlawful void and of no effect this means that the order in council which led was a little full void and of no if that should be quashed the prayer of geisha was also void and of no effect parliament has not been for the road. this is the unanimous

do you believe boris johnson genuinely wants a deal?” that. do you believe boris johnson genuinely wants a deal? i do, actually, and i asked michael gove many times if that was the policy of government, just as ruth davidson said last week, she and i both needed to hear that is the case and i absently heard michael gove say to me, that is what this government wa nts. me, that is what this government wants. ——i me, that is what this government wants. —— i absolutely had. me, that is what this government wants. -- i absolutely had. thank you for your time today. that is the view from birmingham and the west midlands. back to you. thank you very much. it's 5:29pm, and injusta thank you very much. it's 5:29pm, and injust a few thank you very much. it's 5:29pm, and in just a few seconds, we will update you on what's going on here in downing street because, as i was telling you earlier on, the cabinet has been meeting in, i suppose you could call it an emergency session because it's an unscheduled meeting of the cabinet and that has

live rock care had been waiting 2 months for this meeting since boris johnson became u.k. prime minister to close neighbors and allies but these men are poles apart on the question of the irish border to brag that. when the u.k. finally leaves the european union the only land border between them bill beyond irish soil the so-called irish backstop is a plan to avoid checkpoints and border checks something many fear will endangered peace in northern ireland it would keep the u.k. in the customs union off to bragg's it leave campaign as an boris johnson supporters in the u.k. find that acceptable boris johnson has promised to solve the issue but in ireland they want specific proposals what's we cannot do and will not do and i know you understand this is a greets the replacement of illegal guarantee with a promise. our businesses need long term certainty and the people of this side the north and south need to know that their livelihoods their security under sense of identity will not be put at risk as a consequence of practice boris johnson is gambling that a new deal brags th

them on the brexit issue and again cost boris johnson seats? and presumably a factor in that decision is people's attitudes towards mr corbyn, who has not polled particularly well generally in terms of how people see his leadership? yes, there is little doubt that although mr corbyn did himself a lot of good in 2017, not to say he became popular but markedly less popular, he is basically back to where he was and worse. so certainly jeremy corbyn doesn't look like he is an electoral advantage for the labour party, but whether or not that will persuade people to vote liberal democrat or not, that will remain much more broadly about their attitudes towards brexit. can i ask you quickly about the brexit party, ukip exerted extreme influence over political discourse in the last ten yea rs political discourse in the last ten years but in the end its support collapsed. brexit party is exerting extreme influence on the conservative party, do you think its support will hold in the furnace of a general election? that i think is the $64,000 question. that

boris johnson wants to keep the option of britain crashing out of the european union. many lawmakers however want to block that the voting. is taking place right now also coming up tonight at least 5 people are dead as hurricane devastates the government says the damage is unprecedented and extensive and on the eastern seaboard of the united states more than a 1000000 people have been ordered to leave their homes. and a survivor of the home. for her efforts to fight anti-semitism talks to 94 year old and needed luster of all fish the day she received a special award from the nation trying to kill her. it's good to have you with us tonight it is a showdown in westminster in london voting underway in the british parliament right now in a make or break. moment for new prime minister boris johnson and it is all about bret's a group of at rebel conservatives as well as opposition lawmakers have come together they've called for the vote to seize control of parliamentary business from the government if they win they will basically be able to control what happens to break that

johnson to resign and of course boris johnson had never indicated that he would resign even if he faced a setback so not tell us child water happens next you mentioned the speaker of parliament john bercow saying that the parliament can resume as soon as possible. exactly so we have to reiterate boris johnson has said of course he will follow this ruling from the supreme court yes that last night but they had that he has no intention to resign what we will see now is parliament reconvening immediately that would be in the course of the day tomorrow the labor opposition party is just finishing its party conference in the course of the day tomorrow so we can see parliament reconvene and then asking boris johnson to release documents on all matters that on his brakes of strategy on how you was planning to to force the european union into giving him a new deal and what he was planning in case of a no deal scenario so we'll see a lot of pressure there on boris johnson and then of course as you mentioned the news that the labor party now wants him to resign and we will have to see how that pl

boris johnson broke the law. the decision to advise her majesty to prorogue parliament was unlawful because it had the effect of frustrating or preventing the ability of parliament to carry out its constitutional functions without reasonable justification. jubilation outside in the rain. it restores some kind of hope, doesn't it? who needs hard booze when you have judgment like that. suspicious he had prorogue parliament to close bait on brexit which he denied. the effect on the fundamentals of our democracy was extreme. no justification for taking action with such an extreme effect has been put before the court. the conclusion... it was illegal, so it never happened at all. the prime minister's advice to her majesty was unlawful, void and of no effect, parliament has not been prorogued. the courts traditionally allergic to politics and stay well away, but the other side's legal dream came true. the ruling today speaks volumes. this prime minister must open the doors of parliament tomorrow. mps must get back and

about the snap election possibly before breaks a prime minister boris johnson is about to address the nation. i'm dealing with all of this is al jazeera live from go also coming up the prime minister of the bahamas says hurrican durian has caused unprecedented devastation in the island nation. the u.n. says it's time for accountability is more than 100 are feared dead in a savvy led air strike on a yemeni prison. a boat trip turned into a tragedy dozens of feared dead in a far off the coast of california. a warm welcome to the program well speculation is firmly growing in the u.k. about a snap election possibly before breaks it these are live pictures from done street the famous black door there prime minister boris johnson is expected to speak shortly you can see the lectern out front after holding an emergency cabinet meeting that's ahead of an expected showdown on choose day that's tomorrow in parliament when m.p.'s return from their summer holidays well lawrence lee reports now from london. lots of last minute preparations wargaming really going on between both sides now in this f

government boris johnson did lose the vote. the u.k. parliament took a key first step in blocking a no-deal brexit. boris johnson proposed a motion for a general election which we think might be held october 14. headlines that the u.k. has announced $2.4 billion of extra brexit funding. thankfully, i'm joined by a senior policy analyst for data innovation and she can help break all of this down for me. more importantly for our audience, tax impact from this brexit vote. thank you for joining me. some ofy have to ask your initial reaction, how would tech be impacted here given the drama that is going on within the u.k. right now? guest: thanks for having me. what we see in our work is it is essential for the eu to perform in the digital economy. we have companies that operate in that context that require access to talent. hard brexit or a no deal would undermine both of those. when you look at the u.k., you have the eu together with the u.k., it, without the is about 5% of that. the u.k. is home to about 1000 ai companies, 35 hubs and re

johnson might send them and he has parliament that boris johnson might send them on vacation on a break and then push those general elections back to november 1st so one day off the u.k. has left the european union possibly if it is after boris johnson's opinion possibly after that day where the u.k. has left the european union with no deal with bricks so we'll have to see where this leads today but a general election does seem very likely and if it comes to that it will be more of a referendum again on whether to stay in the european union or not a question that really has divided this country over the past 2 years max there's a good chance that the u.k. will see the e.u. for another extension of the brig's that deadline will you groet. this is going to be a topic in any case we expect that at least 1st of all because of what's happening in the house of commons right now that johnson might be forced by parliament to do that but even in the case of snap elections you might have a new government that will have a very ready little time to sort things out so this is likely to come many at

basically the options that boris johnson is facing. all the fact that he's going to have to go back to brussels to all for an extension of article six fifty eight am until thirty first john which is what we just said. something he always refused to do if that. legislation policies he will be obliged to do that. and he has now probably until monday to do something about it be before they just license costs. now he could call an election. tomorrow or the next day for some time in october. he's not bound by this discussion going on in the house of commons in my because he's not yet little if he does that then all the schools. and he can pull general election in the middle of october and then he can say are decide to change the date i'll call at the building it beginning of november. and that means britain leave without a deal. if you wait until next week when this goes through it becomes a little. these motion to take control of parliament and force him to go to brussels to austin extension. fifty then even if he called the general electi

we will talk about brexit, we talk about the pound boris johnson. -- and boris johnson. there is a lot going on in the markets we are also getting a little bit of news from italy with the new government being sworn in. can see the pound is what we are watching out for. overall, there is a little bit of a risk on mood when it comes to the markets. back to the italian government. the one that we need to watch for is the new finance minister. we're seeing the cabinet sworn in with the same prime minister, that is conte. let's get straight to first word news. china and the u.s. are holding the next round of trade talks in early october. that's according to the commerce ministry. they confirmed ministerial level talks in the next week but did not specify when. the two sides are trying to end the trade war but there is still skepticism on both sides that any real progress can be made. hong kong's chief executive carrie lam says withdrawing the extradition bill is only the first step to address the unrest in the city. she also says the decision will be made independently by the

people are saying the resignation ofjo johnson is a disasterfor boris johnson. if you look at what labour are trying to do, they are saying we can trust you so how can the public trust you, then his brother is leaving suggesting the prime minister is not doing what is in the national interest, and labour are saying your own brother doesn‘t trust you either. so it is damaging. i had trust you either. so it is damaging. ihada trust you either. so it is damaging. i had a chat with him a couple years ago, andjo i had a chat with him a couple years ago, and jo johnson spoke i had a chat with him a couple years ago, and jojohnson spoke openly about the fact it had been very difficult for their families, and boris johnson‘s sister stood difficult for their families, and borisjohnson‘s sister stood for the liberal democrats. they have another brother, and they haven‘t really forgiven borisjohnson brother, and they haven‘t really forgiven boris johnson for what brother, and they haven‘t really forgiven borisjohnson for what he did.jo forgiven borisjohnson for

to play any role in number 10 downing street it was a great mistake by boris johnson to appoint this out of control bully who has behaved in an appalling way and it does obviously given dreadful advice to the prime minister surely you can't believe a meal it vies are for from the actions of the prime minister i mean george not just appointed them he followed his if a exactly said the person who made the decision people who were calling for dummy cummings to go a basically use him as an air raid shelter is a way of not calling for his relationship to go medieval courts you didn't call for the removal of the moderate you settle get release by the visors yes you could dominate behavior as well. mr cummings and they got me to have a happier face as far as i'm concerned for this man who is wage singlehanded war everything is decent to say i want to defenseless against i want one of the fence to sit on its behalf 2 words short memories we had peter mandelson we had alastair campbell we had andy cools and i think he went to prison plus written about the mole yeah and you know very well comi

and boris johnson that he can not take the u.k. out of the e.u. on the 31st of october he has to get an extension this puts more pressure on forest johnson to do that also a lot of pressure on him to get to deal everything now will be about him trying to get a deal with the e.u. will the e.u. play ball with they offer any more concessions will we have to wait and see for that but just domestically everything that boris johnson has to do is get a deal to get out of the 31st of october otherwise i think there will have to be an extension and when will the u.k. leave on asli i can tell you around the clock is ticking relentlessly i might add ok now this arguably is the biggest setback that prime minister aborts johnson has suffered i mean he suffered a couple of consecutive setbacks but do you believe do you think that he can come back from this well look they've already been many calls for him to resign particular from opposition leaders and pays but it's a very difficult position for the prime minister to be in as i said before he's misled the quee

it's just said that boris johnson believes he might lose his leverage with the e.u. i think the consensus here in brussels is universally never had any leverage but believe it or not his chief brags that envoy david frost is in town to officially negotiate things like the backstop very contentious that is the insurance policy against a hard border between northern ireland which is part of the u.k. and the republic of ireland which is part of the european union and you remember when boris johnson said they're making good progress and a deal with the e.u. was within reach and that he had plans to replace this backstop with an alternative well you officials here in brussels say they've never seen any of those plans that these plans do not exist and that's why many here think that the real plan of the johnson administration is to have a no deal bragg's it so that's what the e.u. is preparing for right now expected to announce new measures to get the european union prepared for no deal drags it. and that was. in brussels and charlotte potts in london talking to me a littl
