but boris is not like that. his strategy since he became prime minister is that of hedge down —— my grey head down, charge, bowler in a china shop. 0ur of the election process was to get rid of parliament. brecht said and the effect on the constitution. the law lords have dealt with the effect on the constitution, in my view quite rightly they have said that in our constitution, parliament is sovereign. that has always been my belief. i believe john bercow is a speaker who has shown exactly the same instinct and doris fell foul of that. it's not in his character to apologise or do anything of that sort. he will keep charging. what do you think of that strategy?” sort. he will keep charging. what do you think of that strategy? i think it's unlikely to deliver what he wants because large numbers of conservatives are haemorrhaging to the lib dems. 0n the other side, he has the brexit party who i think will not go away. they certainly won't. i doubt he can do a deal with them. my own guess is we are in for a l

boris johnson hasn't started taking questions yet but he suffered a major setback last night when he lost the 1st vote that was tabled in fundamental him how much of a setback for him do you think i think it was a huge setback for him because he lost control of parliament he lost his majority he lost 21 of his own m.p.'s because he sucked them himself because they lost the weight because they voted against him and many are saying that he has now pretty much lost control you can't write him off though there's still a lot for him to play for but today we're now hearing from him this is him starting his yeah i mean this is let's actually go straight to the last pitches at the house of commons boris johnson has started speaking let's take a listen to what he has to say this is question time in the house of commons the dangers that police officers face every day to keep us safe this is because this morning i had meetings with ministerial colleagues and others in addition to my duties in the house so i will have rather such meetings later today. mr speaker can i associate myself with the b

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

. -- 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 and jeremy corbyn sayi

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

sorry, we can just see boris sensitive. sorry, we canjust see borisjohnson outside number ten welcoming binyamin netanyahu, the israeli prime minister, to number ten. i think he is due to shake hands with mike spence of the united states. to bea mike spence of the united states. to be a fly on the wall in there. i wonder whether they will be talking about brexit. sorry, norman. we are talking about the snp. the snp may be pivotal. they have so far held in with the so—called rebel alliance. the snp now publicly have a rather different position to the other members of the rebel alliance. they are much more amenable to an early general election because they think they would hoover up in scotland. however there are discussions going on between the snp and the rebel alliance and i think it is not at all impossible that over the course of the next few days they may become much cooler, shall we say, on an early general election because if there is an early general election. he could overturn the legislation if he wins and then w

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 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

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

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

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

they're not i don't think boris quite anticipated. an outbreak of option just this on a test i would say. bobbie you mentioned before that boris johnson had stated publicly that he would rather be dead in a ditch than to ax ask for another extension on bridget from the e.u. but of course there is this new law that compels him now to ask for an extension if he does not do that what happens. well he's got 2 choices really he can either resign or he will have to offer that extension if he if he were to refuse to in the face the law what would happen is that someone would go to court get a court order requiring him to send that letter some people saying that bristol's will go to prison i think frankly that's a bit funny it's a full probably wishful thinking on the part of some people who'd like to see him go to prison and that's because what would happen would be the court could itself sign a letter or nominate someone apart from doris to sign the letter and there's another stage that would have to be gone through before boris could even

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

but what followed has been a lot less clear british prime minister boris johnson failed to break the latest deadlock over brags that on wednesday m.p.'s voted down his attempts to trigger a snap election they also passed a bill blocking the possibility of a no deal exit from the e.u. johnson had said he was willing to consider that if no new withdrawal deal was agreed so where does that leave the braggs it process there's a lot to cover with our guest but 1st this report from under a semblance of london. another defeat for boris johnson already on the back foot with the rebellion and his party and the opposition taking over the parliamentary timetable the eyes of the right $327.00 knows the act 299. within minutes boris johnson was on his feet with his plan for a snap elections i don't want an election the public don't want an election the country doesn't want to lection but this house has left no other option than getting the public decide who they want as prime minister and i commend this motion to the hide under the opposition bill that now has to be passed by parliament upper hou

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 back stop very contentious that is the insurance policy against the 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 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 drugs that charlotte as you mentioned johnson has lost his majority now in parliament

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

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

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

protester: boris, boris, boris! chanting: out, out, out! welcome back to westminster. mps return from their summer break today to a raging debate about brexit. yesterday evening, the prime minister raised the stakes with a warning to those trying to block a no deal exit, they could force him to go to the polls. let's let our negotiators get on with their work without that sword of damocles over their necks and without an election, without an election. i don't want an election, you don't want an election. tory mps entertained in the garden of number ten now know that if theyjoin with opposition parties this week in attempts to take control of what happens in the house of commons, the government will push for an early election. two—thirds of mps would need to back that, meaning labour's position is crucial. their leader sounds keen. when the election comes, i'm ready for it, you're ready for it, we're ready for it. we'll take that message out there and above all, we will win for the people of this country! we will defeat this lot! we will bring about that sense ofjusti

limits boris johnson. .. limits how borisjohnson... limits how much time boris —— members mps have. as we are seeing, opposition parties are working with some conservative mps and they have worked together to produce this bill. the one that, in the end, will be voted on. it would force the prime minister to delay brexit. that date is important. it is day after a european union summit which borisjohnson is day after a european union summit which boris johnson has is day after a european union summit which borisjohnson has repeatedly said will be the moment when an agreement is possible. one thing we should add, though. before trondsen and the eu were to reach a new agreement, the uk parliament would still need to vote it through, and theresa may can tell us how hard it is to do that. three times her deal was defeated. defeat this evening would appear to point towards the prime minister calling and election. we will see how that goes. well, passions were running high before the debate even started. conservative mps backing mrjohnson questioned speakerjohn bercow‘s decision to allow

he was defiant but now boris johnson looks caught in a 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 i'm a general 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 you 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 or is the reports on a dramatic night in british politics. mr speaker the lord's will also right by how much is t

it is judgment day for boris johnson. the supreme court will rule whether the prime minister's suspension of parliament was legal. whatever the outcome, the decision will shape the course of brexit and determine the power of future prime ministers . one of the possible outcomes in terms of rulings? are the possible outcomes in terms of rulings? ,> the job of the supreme court they found this is not a judicial issue and said we should not get involved. there is the issue of was this unlawful. the scottish court said yes. .hey said this cannot go then we get a third consideration, whether they should get involved and say parliament can sit again. we have indications the court is worried about intervening. we will have to see what happens at 10:30. what happens here if the government loses? we do not expect to see a lot of movement in the pound, but we could expect parliament to reconvene and pass further measures that hinder boris johnson's possibilities? yes, it depends on the judgment. you could see parliament reconvening

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 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

boris general election, another referendum? boris johnson general election, another referendum? borisjohnson knows his opponents are not agreed on what happens next. if you look at the people who signed this, philip hammond, david gauke, former cabinet ministers from the toadies, that is interesting and they are old people who voted for ideal. they accept result of the referendum they see and have voted to leave with a deal. some of the others like stephen gethins snp, have not voted for a deal, they want another referendum and want to stay in the eu. if you're in downing street, they might be united on this bill but they are not to —— united over what happens next. that is what they are banking on, the opponents not being agreed or overjeremy corbyn becoming prime minister. that could be the thing which gives boris johnson minister. that could be the thing which gives borisjohnson the confidence to stay i will try a general election. we will see what he says, not long to go. thank you very much. this is what we know so far. while we wait for news weather thatis far. while w

now whatever, this will be the same with boris johnson. now boris johnson whatever, this will be the same with borisjohnson. now borisjohnson has asked to leave the eu, eu leaders have declared he cannot negotiate individually with them. he has to negotiate through the european commission and they are sticking to that, which means whatever boris johnson says, he cannot come to the summit in october and thrash things out with eu leaders because they won't do any thrashing. if he does have any, they will say thank you very much, we will now go away and think about it. the reason eu leaders are sticking to the rule of not negotiating at the summit comes down to eu unity, because the eu is not used to unity. you know how they bicker and argue, member states over euro zone reform or migration. when it has come to brexit they are sticking together and the way they are doing that is by keeping their differences behind closed doors. that is why the european commission is negotiating a behalf of eu leaders, so they've got a single front, not 27 dif

also whether boris johnson might be party on that one. also whether borisjohnson might be making a statement to the house of commons following the un general assembly. he is heading back from that. so if he does come before the house of commons i suspect mps will want to get him quite a grilling. stay with hours because we want to get to you that some other questions we have while we have you. lady hill said the ruling today was not a bit brexit but about the decision to suspend parliament. no—one from the government is giving interviews — but we've had this reaction from a number 10 source who tells the bbc the supreme court "made a serious mistake in extending its reach to these political matters" and had "made it clear that its reasons were connected to the parliamentary disputes" over brexit. talking about how they felt about that particular ruling. so that's number 10 pointing the finger at the supreme court. but according to this buzzfeed article, others are looking closely at the advice given to the government by the attorney g

yes to breck said probably delayed leading to a general election which boris johnson can win as long as he does a deal with nigel for our peter i think that mr johnson will strike a deal with europe and i think he will probably take britain on a deal which looks almost identical or is almost identical to the one he trashed i.e. mrs may's deal bitter over when but thank you so much for that we turn to the north for the bottle and we talked to ruth longstanding outstanding columnist and broadcaster the she think that scotland will emerge as the big political story the sort of. rufe welcome to the alex salmond chilled thank you tell us about the boat john of charities imagine someone that this is the the 2nd major court victory that she has won over the u.k. government in the most dramatic terms what is behind the imagines of this formidable woman but of course she's in her own re a formidable lawyer even though when she's sitting in the house of commons as a scottish m.p. and. mean ever used to call her rate on are born learned friend as is the custom but she is in fact a very learned
