2:04 pm
a bit of head when he cannot make good data inflation just coming down from a 41 year high. so he would have felt that this could base the carrier belonging to help him. but as you said, the impulse really hasn't changed and labor is, has a soul. it leads about 20 points and the pulse hasn't really changed, not so yes, it could have backfired. but in any case, it would have been a long shot and difficult for him to turn things around. now what can you tell us about the label either kiss down a bit and slightly next prime minister. or i'm yankee is thomas constituency in central on. and then over the past weeks i've tried to engage with people. i've tried to awesome. how would you describe to salma? and i have to say that it really wasn't very easy. lots of people were just couldn't really describe in a characterize them as a little bit boring, accused alma news those. and he's trying to basically use it to his advantage. he's saying i'm not your candidate to be the sac as director in your candidate to be the
2:05 pm
next 5 minutes stuff. he's a lawyer. so he's saying he's going about things diligently, slowly. he's not offering a great vision, but more slower reforms to get most the, the economy back on track. so that is what he's hoping to do from this to the british voters. that'd be it change, but it's changed to a sort of most solid sense of ground center left politics. no one is on top of his to do list once he is in number 10. i think really, one of his biggest task is to re gain the trust of age as trust in the u. k. of politics of politicians. is that the all time low that will be very difficult to, to turn around. but when it comes to, to very concrete policies, i think is the cost of living crisis is that most defining issue for most of bridges rates as unexcused, alma has promised to turn the bridges the ailing,
2:06 pm
which is she calling to me a run and 2 goals the right say that we all know will not come overnight, is more like a long term strategy. and that was the question is, how is he going to do this? in the, in the short term, public service is a crumbling, the health service has over 7000000 people on the waiting list. more and more people had to go resort to food things. so there is really a cost of living crisis says that very many people here in the u. k. and they want also show to of on so it's not just long term on says see the good briefly, when can we expect 1st results we have the exit polls. that's a tenix of u. k. time just after 10 o'clock, they're usually pretty reliable. so they will give and direction of trouble and then overnight the results will come in. so we're expecting that by tomorrow early morning. we will know who the next british prime minister with the big boss that in london covering the british parliamentary election for us. thank you. very much
2:07 pm
the leaders of russia and china and have have the stability off that partnership at a you raising the security summit in us. donna cars like stop letting me put in and she's in pain with join for representative from several other countries including india, pakistan, and iraq, russia and china launch the shanghai corporation organization in 2001 to serve as a counsel whites to the west of lead organizations from teen cole to summit, a keep pillow, all the multi pullout. well, now corresponding to emulate sherman jones is from illustrious capital re, guys, the kremlin, has a band dw, from operating in russia. emily, let's start with a declaration that was signed today. what are the most important points of this declaration or well,
2:08 pm
most of the declaration was very general. for example, the participants said that they wanted to develop a united and fair world. there is one point that i think is worth highlighting, and that's the fact that the participants called for a broad reform of the united nations, including to make it more representative. so essentially they were calling for it to be brought in for members. i guess of the global south to also be able to join the united nations. and that's an interesting point because i think it shows what's the central message of the summit today, which is what you mentioned, the multi polar world order put in this opening statements to the summit mentioned that several times. he said that he hope that the ceo of this organization would be one of the pillars of that multi polar world or other order, which he actually called a reality today. and of course, that is in opposition to what he calls the unipolar world order, which is the western dominated us dominated world order. so that's really the main
2:09 pm
message from china and russia today, questioning the dominance of the west. now the west has been tried to isolate russia over its in evasion, his invasion of ukraine. what's the talk at the summit about this war and about the future of this war? or um, it was mentioned uh several times. it was, you know, the backdrop this week with um, the ukrainian president village made as it lensky who was. and of course, at the summit, it's talking about peace talks this week. yesterday, the turkish president, edge of tape arrow on, was also there a head of the summit and spoke to put in and he offered himself up as an intermediary for peace talks between ukraine and russia. which the kremlin then said was, would be impossible. the spokes person for the kremlin and today in his remarks put in also said that the 1st of all he blamed the west for the war and ukraine, even though he attacked ukraine himself,
2:10 pm
of course. and he also said that he would be open for ideas and initiatives from the participants at the summit to regulate this conflict. which is interesting because china has in the past, offered itself up or said that it would be, you know, willing to you'll be an interim, an intermediary between russia and ukraine. so in the sense watch that space, but we don't know whether it's just rhetoric from pollutant briefly if you can. how much weight does this blow cold could really challenge the west initially? i think this has always been seen as kind of a regional organization. um yes, more and more countries are joining this organization. but i think the main thing is that it's symbolic of the deepening friendship, the deepening relations since the grand war began between china and russia. that's one point. and some people are talking about this being an anti western block, even a block of authoritarian states, which of course has been highlighted today by beller ruse joining the participants
2:11 pm
. and of course, this is an opportunity for pollutant to just show that he has friends and that he's not as isolated as the west might think he is emily serving them. thank you very much. how many and so we're looking at some of the other stories making headlines today. this china has confirmed that several of its citizens are dead or missing and attacked in the democratic republic of congo. badging says militants targeted a chinese funded company. on wednesday it happened in the northeast. that's a region which in minimal result is where a tax are quite common. in hamburg, a burning truck has shut down the tunnel. one of the busiest roots in germany, a spokes person set the fire on the tunnel as page a 10 kilometer traffic job, the blaze has been extinguished, and the lane heading north has now reopened. shanghai
