8:03 am
lots of crises. and really it's a historic loss for the conservatives. we don't have all the results in just yet bought their full costs to, to lose as much as 2 sides of the seats. so that's really for the polity of power, which the conservative party has been all through their existence in the u. k. it is, it is very, very big defeats. so here, outside down the street, as you say, it's quite quite rainy, but we will expect the removal of an see to come here quite soon because everything happens on day one. so we will have a new prime minister basically within hours. so there is a sense of expectation, a sense of change that often 14 years and labor landslide victory is, is happening today. really a standing result here to can you tell us very good. are these elections and more about a big win for labor and it's liter tears donna. or would you say this is more of a story of the defeats of the conservatives to yeah,
8:04 am
since we don't have all the results just yet, but we can already say that's actually neva, share of the vague has written dramatically just a few percentage points. however, the losses for the tories message. so from, from the last let last update, i saw it was almost 20 points, but they didn't go to neva. they went to the list for democrats and also to reform party. you know, there will be more analysis to be done on, on where the votes went, but this is what it looks at the moment 1st of the, of the independent candidates as well. so it's not really a story of lay of a new life of prime minister who really had it in, in to capture the hearts and minds of the british people in a big way. it's more that's why i interpreted really the, the ruling conservative policy where people were just thinking that this is time to for, for a new prime minister. it's time for
8:05 am
a new policy or that. thank you so much to stay with us. i'd like to take a look at where things stand now and then we will come back to you. so the labor party has so far, $1326.00 seats with about 2 thirds of the results. and that is already enough to have an outright majority in the british parliament exit. polls suggest it. so next conservatives will end up with only about $150.00 seats. the liberal democrat party also projected to make significant gains and the right wing populace reform and u. k. party, as also set to enter parliament. all the results were in dream come true to labor. early exit polls put them streets a huge and deliberate, the tories. a damning defeat as much to the delight of these london crowd as ballot boxes with counted throughout the night they consumed versus desist had

selection. i'm so glad to see the optimistic that we're going to have some consistent governance moving forward. that's the one who i talked to because i really want to see them. smiles myself and faces. hello. it's quite a thrill. just leave it indoors looking some across and i guess i would shop that reform. i think it is. i meant, i feel like that's really the us, the leader of the right wing populace reform policy. 19 for raj, one his parliamentary seat, his 8th attempt to be elected. it's not just disappointment that goes over the policy. there is a massive gap. i'm a sense of right of british politics. my job is to fit it, and that's exactly what i'm going to do well, where she's soon act pertains as parliamentary seat. he is expected to resign as prime minister in the coming hours. the british people have delivered
8:08 am
a so bring verdict tonight. there is much to learn and reflect on. and i take responsibility for the last as to the many goods, hardworking conservative candidates, the loss denied this point that time and efforts, the local records of delivery. and the dedication to that communities, i am sorry, he has them a link to pay a visit to king charles where he will be invited to form a government kicking off a new chapter. and you can you politics? let's get back across to berg as mass and london. very good. and you, chester, in u. k. politics. what is waiver promising? and perhaps more importantly, how are they going to pay for? it maybe hasn't been promising a revolution more a series of smaller reforms kids salma labors the the said when he was presenting his manifesto,
8:09 am
i'm not here to be the kind of the for the sack as direct. so i'm here to be that kind of the for the 5 minutes, the, so he wants to come across with somebody who's tova and the money faster. and all the changes they have from missing labor has repeated. the reassured, has been costs. and so he's not really trying to borrow lots more money for a lot of public investments he has from is to not raise the most basic tax is like income taxes. however, there might be tax raises, lights wrong, and some tax raises haven't been excluded. what they want to do mostly is grow the economy and they are doing they spike planning reforms, for example. they want to encourage more house buildings. they want to that promising and new industrial strategy, which is something that's welcomed by business. so labor is promising to grow the economy, which then would of course have ripple effects for public services because that's really what bridges people have been missing. public services has been crumbling,
8:10 am
the waiting times for the health appointments all in the millions live, reese had to close local governments funding is or has been seeing lots of squeeze . however, executive how it's going to be paid for. there are still some question marks, say something thing say though, is it so cool? conspiracy of silence not just for labor but also for the conservative party when they world promising, for example, that's a health care. but what exactly is that money going to come from? will it means that the other departments like social care, that that will have to be caused. so labor have always maintained that they can only just really set it out much more confidently when they are in power, when they know the exact figures. and when they know the exact state of the country, so as an run, they move in. yeah. into downing street then into all these other buildings in whites hold in the government's district. that's when they will be more concrete with thank you so much for your reporting. that is our correspondent,
8:11 am
dispatch mass in london. now after months of impasse, the german government has agreed on a proposal to plug a $40000000000.00 euro gap and it's 2025 budgets. the coalition partners have decided to 6 to be controversial debt break, which forbids germany from barley more than 0.35 percent of its economic output. and that is a rule that no other g 7 nation has and it puts a tight limit on spending. even as the country suffers from a stagnant economy, details of the budget proposal expected later today. and so i told him now that we have dw, use a chief court, political correspondent, not has the nina these negotiations. and they've gone on for months. i'm hoping you can explain for us why they were so complicated, small budget negotiations out why the government sets his priorities and says, we'll invest into this, but we'll put less of
8:12 am
a focus on that. so that is never easy. there are lots of different interests of goals in any government, but it's particularly true for a government that consists of 3 very different political parties like karen devon, a was very different priorities with the greens, wanting more money for foreign policy for environmental and sustainability policy measures the s p d and the strong focus, i'm not cutting well set and the business friendly as the p, very much insisting on the circles debt break. as you just explain. so that is a little that certainly is giving itself that limits the debt, but the federal and the retail governments can have. and some people say that these low needs to be reformed, that germany just needs to borrow lots of money now to make fruitful investments into defense of infrastructure, but not with the ftp. yeah, so, so explain this a little bit more for us. i think many are wondering, you've got on the one hand and the government agreeing on fiscal discipline and then on the other hand, they want to boost economic growth. how did these 2 go together? what's the idea behind us?
8:13 am
what, especially the liberal politicians from the if the p have always argued that you don't always need to continue bothering more extensively, more excessively even. but you can just boost the economy and generate more tax this way. so you've got more money and of course that they said something that does sound like squaring the cycle. we're hearing that the draft budget entails some sort of a reform package for more economic growth. but we're also hearing that that is allegedly supposed to be done without declaring a financial emergency situation, which would allow for the brakes to be ignored. and without any special funds like we saw of the rest has invasion into u. k. $170.00 created a special 100000000000 year of budget for defends, but we'll lend the details about this. but they said today, well, thank you so much as always for your reporting. what is this chief political correspondent? you know how to just before we go, we can bring you a reminder of the top stories that we've been following for you today. a k is
