hello and clare richardson. thank you so much for joining us. a labor landslide has swept the u. k. 's general elections ending 14 years of conservative rule cares. dormer will become the new prime minister later today. he has promised a decade of national renewal, as he replaces where she su nackers. conservative party suffered a decisive defeat at the polls. i don't see that has conceded calling the results. a sobering verdict, but also across the country. and we can hear a little bit of storms victory speech from earlier this morning as well as so next concession, the people there around the country help us focus on the reggie for change to end the politics of performance. a return to politics as a public service, but change pickens right here. because this is your democracy, your community, as your future. you have folks here. it is now time for us to deliver.

thank you very much. the labor policy has won this general election and i have quotes. okay, so i'm about to congratulate him on his victory today. power will change hands in a peaceful, an orderly manner with goodwill on all sides. that is something that should give us all confidence in our country, stupidity and future. the british people have to live at a, so bring verdict tonight. there is much to learn and reflect on. and i take responsibility for the last. so joining us now from downing street in a very rainy london, we've dw correspondent barrow, got mass forget prime minister, she's still not conceding defeat there. what is the scale of this was for the conservatives to yes, really. so not is preparing to order. the removal of what then and move out of dining, sweet, and we will have in a few hours already we will have and you prime is the key has stomach,

it's historic lows for the conservative party off to 14 years. they have lost and that's the prediction. we don't have all the seeds just yet, but it's pretty sure that they will have lost 2 sides around 2 sides of the seats. so that's the biggest last i've ever had in the history of the pop in the conservative for the is usually the part you of government here in the united kingdom. one interesting not get that old for form up conservative. fremont is this of the recent 14 years have lost all those seats has been lost. so they went to label or, or the liberal democrats, the seeds have tons. so that tells you really the mood in the country and the conservative. and in this, that's a big story then from last night, or are these elections more about a big win for labor and it's leader to your storm. or i think it's really about the last for the conservative policy through the vote that

the labor could increase the vote. so it's actually really, really small. we see that the conservatives really the last. they lost the labor and the democrats and labor, i think. and in that campaign, what you know saying that there is time for change, but they will to a very, very castle to the a competitive was carrying a ming vase over an ice rink. so not to say anything to controversial that could to the spring, the mood and the country just to play very, very safe and in the way owns wait for the conservatives to destroy themselves. that's how i perceive this. forget thank you so much. stay with us. when i come back to you in just a moment, 1st, let's take a look at where things stand right now. the labor party has raised a past day 300. 20 succeeds needed for an outright majority in the u. k. parliament and exit. polls have suggested soon as conservatives will end up with only about $150.00 seats,

the liberal democrats have also made significant gains won't the right wing populist reform u. k. party. also set to enter parliament. all the results were the dream come true to labor. early exit polls put them streets a huge and deliberate. the tories a damning defeat. much to the delight of these london crown as ballot and boxes were counted throughout the night. they consumed versus desist adverse. she's due next conservative policy in drugs, meaning it's looking to kiss tom as labor policy full style man who used to be england's chief prosecutor is now the prime minister in waiting. he sees the next governments free is clear, says but good. now to return

politics to public service, show the politics can be a full so good. make no mistake. that is the great test the payment takes in this era. the fight for trust is the buffalo defines, all right, with the people with supporting labor or simply voting against and other tory 10, many welcome to the new political landscape really lives on. i'm just happy to go rid of the tories, the selection. i'm so glad to see optimistic that we're going to have some competent governance moving forward. that's the one who i talked to because i really want to see them. smiles. what's okay faces. hello. it's quite thrilled to say that the noise looking some across um i guess i was shopping there performance . i think it is. i meant i feel like that's really the us the leader of the right

wing populace reform policy. $92.00 for raj, one his parliamentary seat, his 8th attempt to be elected. it's not just disappointment, but that goes over the policy. there was a massive guy, almost 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 neck retained his parliamentary seat. he is expected to resign as prime minister in the coming hours. the british people have delivered 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 last to night. despite that time and efforts, the local reco, it's of delivery, and the dedication to that communities. i am sorry t as tom 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 go back across to our correspondence, barragan's mass in london for more paragraphs. a new chapter in u. k. politics here. what is labor promising? and maybe more importantly, how are they planning to pay for? it keeps telling me i did not from is the revolution. he said, i'm here not as a candidates to be a cyclists director. i'm here, you're next to be a next prime minister and he wasn't promising anything crazy, but more series of smaller reforms such as planning reform. he wants to grow the economy. that's his biggest same. the bridges economy has been stagnating, also in an international comparison. so he wants to grow the economy is reached out to businesses. he wants to set out a new industrial strategy, which was welcome also by business. however, how is that going to be quick enough to change things around?

british public service is a crumbling the health system is in a really dia, state, and bridge people we want to have some on says sooner rather than later. whereas hays plan is more how i see it's more of a long term plan. and the question is, can you turn things around in the next 5 years in order to, to, to have a 2nd tom, however, he will set this out. we're expecting him to take the center stage in the next 2 hours. and then it's up to him to really in series of british people. all right, we'll be waiting patiently for that moment. then a very good while i have you here, i'd like to take a look if we can add some results coming out from scotland and what they're going to me. the scottish national party, the s and p, they've taken a big hips. what can you tell us they have taken to the kids, and that's really may need you to the terminal within their own policy. so nicholas search and she was the pots you need to, she was very popular,

she had to resign. so it looks at the moment, so the momentum for an independent, scotland and scotland, that then also wanted to rejoin the european union that this momentum for the moment is lost and that vases, it's called the mainly the fact it's too late. but who were really very, very happy about the results of that in the north vargas. thank you so much. stay dry. that is our correspondence berg at mass reporting from london and was going to european perspective on the british elections. now for that, we have a david mcallister with us. he is a member of germany's opposition conservative at c d u party. and in europe, in parliament where he has the foreign affairs committee as part of the center, right? european people's party block, a warm welcome to the w. first of all, i just like to get your thoughts. what do you make of these results? and this when for care stormers labor party.

good morning. well the british people have elected in the house of commons. the cable have a new government. i would like to congratulate you some of the labor of the for this impressive victory. i'm for the communion. this means that we are ready to engage with the united kingdom, which is a fun country, but an important part for us. and i believe that we should use the selection results to build on the trust in progress we had already made. was fun this to so next couple of let's talk a little bit more about the new case relations with europe. britain, of course, has been out of the you since 2020 after breakfast. is there any indication that things will change with a labor government under prime minister, cure storm or in terms of your relations with london? a let's go 1st. you can needs a new government on the needs to be consent. you do the then we will wait and see what the exact, the labor government will deliver up. we have a close look at the election manifesto of the labor party and there are some

indications that they want to move things forward. but on the other hand, we have to be realistic labeled as not promise to reach on the look in union. they must not promise to join the single market or the customers union. it's about trying to improve relations on the basis of the trade and corporation agreement. and here that's one example that i think we could quickly get a result. that is in case that you could government decides to return to the residence plus program. this would be something i think you would be ready to engage, just like to do k under purposes, to not mutual and the rising program. one of the label was outspoken during this company. this up, they want to improve the coordination of the corporation of the european union on the front of says, defense and security. i think you're also that would be building this on the east side to reengage their business plus program. that's of course a study abroad program for students within the you. does it seem likely from,

from your perspective that labor would seek to rejoin that? well enough miss plus the program you just mentioned is not limited to you members space, but countries are also included. so this would be something of course you, the u. k. would have to pay a financial contributions to be overhead costs, but i think this would be something really positive to improve the situation of students and young professionals. they've also mentioned defense, of course. a big issue in europe is the bore and ukraine. london has been one of key of strongest allies. is it safe to say to your storm and will continue on that course a? hi police a i think the patrice engagement for ukraine has been very impressive. we have seen 61st cooperation between the united states and britain on this matter of so many of the shows, but i think it was a mistake. the full that you click on that excluded form,

assessed security and defense matters from the initial negotiations for trade and cooperation agreement. and here, i believe that a formalized cooperation of these important matches between the u. k. i'm the you could be a way of an important step forward, and this is also gonna be read in the name of a manifesto. label manifesto spoke about a q a pretty cool geostrategic cooperation between the united king of the unit. so that's the way forward. well, thank you so much for sharing your insights with us today. that's number of the european parliament, david mcallister. we very much appreciate you taking the time to speak with us on d w. yes, thank you very much. have a wonderful day and will be in the studio for more analysis of the okay, election results. we have dw alex for us whiting. uh alex. okay, let's get into the details here. um, if we can, do you tell us what else is going to be different under a labor government from what we've seen from 14 years of conservative pool? yeah, it's quite interesting that wasn't it that david mcallister was talking about the

labor manifesto. and i think many people think that that neighbor manifesto has been very vague because that hasn't been a huge amount of detail about what exactly exactly labor does want to do. now that it is going to fall in the next government, what we do know is that they want to introduce $8600000000.00 pounds worth of tax rises. so that's about 10000000000 years worth of tax rises, including sales tax on private school fees. if they want to do that, they want to target those people who went on doing this on. so very rich, but not living in the u. k. to try to get some money back. but the biggest problem for labor is that the public finances are in a terrible state. public services are in a terrible state. and so they're gonna have to make some han choices, whether they're missing natural not. and they say they don't want to raise taxes. but at some point that is like you to either have to happen or they'd have to make will cost a public services which they will not want to do. yeah. how are they going to add

to reckon with that divide, right? and so they're going to raise taxes, you said that's, that's in the manifesto. and that varies a little more programs you have to pay to pay for things. so for example, they want to increase the number of stuff working for the, for the health service. so the n h s because that's struggling, they need, they want more teachers. they want to also they, they want to set up a, a public key and energy company called great british energy to try to pull back and as well. so they've got big plans, but they really don't have much money and much leeway with, with how they going to do that and how they're going to tackle some of those major issues. yeah, health care, of course, was, was at the top of voters minds. we saw it falls as they were going out to vote. i'm want to talk to about another key moment we saw in the results from this election. when for the populist right wing leader nigel for raj and he's, he's claiming to kick started a quote, a revolt against the establishment. do you think he's going to be a thorn in the side of the new government? you? my son is going to be a phone in the side of conservatives, and he says that he now wants to take on labor. so that will be the new government

. it's interesting with no idea for us. this is his 8th attempt at trying to become an em pay. he's finally succeeded. he and his new policy did very well. i'm getting a lot of folks, but because of a natural system in the u. k, they've only won 4 seats. however, they will use them as much as they can, and i think it is going to be very difficult for by flight. and for the conservatives now, because he's not going to arrest, he's going to keep going. he's going to make sure that immigration, for example, is at the top of the agenda, whether the labor government wants that or not. that's what he was sent. it'd be focusing on, you know, he was alex as far as whitening. thank you so much for joining me. in the studio to break that down and we can turn now to some other stories that are making headlines around the world today. the german government has agreed on a budget proposal to plug 840000000000 euro gap projected for 2025. for months of

impasse, the coalition partners have decided to stick to a controversial debt break, which forbids germany from borrowing more than 0.35 percent of its economic outputs . details of the proposal expected later today, mexico's you can tell me, peninsula is preparing for the arrival of hurricane barrel. as the storm regained, strength, the powerful hurricane has left a trail of destruction across the eastern caribbean. after calming down, it is now spring spring again with winds of about 190 kilometers per hour. the media and brazil reporting that former president desirable scenario has been indicted for money laundering and connection with undeclared diamonds. from saudi arabia, jewelry worth $3200000.00 was seized by customs in 2021. it is one of several legal cases brought against us. narrow iranians go to the polls and the 2nd round of presidential elections today. choosing between a reformer and a hard liner,

the reform is a candidate must suit possess. keion was relatively unknown before winning 42 percent in the 1st round last month, the most of any candidate but short of an outright majority. he's called for improve relations with the u. s. and fort relaxing iran. strict internet restrictions now he's running against hard liners each illegally. an ultra conservative who has a nuclear negotiator for a run usually has been endorsed by fundamental us and oppose is reviving nuclear negotiations. the west and i'd like to bring in sorrow buzzard bonds, the an analyst at the german institute for global and area studies focused on iran for more on the story. welcome. i'm hoping you can break this down for us if the reformist candidate possess key on wins, wins in this run off. how much of a difference would you say that that will make in the lives of ordinary iranians?

a good morning and thank you for having me. i would, i would use the word phrase, reformist, about position beyond. and generally about any politician in iran that's nowadays would be width, vetted by the guardian council to running the election. because we need to remember that all these candidates are extremely and cautiously on, thoroughly back to their background, the political views, they all do a logical operation. they respect an allegiance to the supreme data, which is a very important factor for them to be accepted to run in presidential elections. so if we accept, despite all of this, we could still cool somebody like position gun and reform is done. we need to keep in mind what is he going to reform against who goes to conservative, who wants to isolate around who wants to, who seek a round position in the international community, only through projecting power and only through aggression. and i followed,

i'd say that because i followed that the page very close. the i listen to watch and really said, i mean he and his background actually shows in his previous position as the chief negotiator, for example, for the nuclear 5. but he believes that he's ideological framework is based on this fact that if we project power of we are aggressive enough, the rest of the world is the respect to its position. god wants to push against this ideology. how much power can he actually have within the establishment? i remain skeptical how much willingness, somebody like that there's not who wears the i r g c out. 5th is nomic revolution regards out to people proudly as a member of the parliament that goes a chance that gaze israel engaged america and has, and to weston, send money to go sentiments. how much is he going to push for result and what kind of recent, again, i would really very skeptical. so let's assume he is somewhat limited in his mandate from any of the reasons that you've put forward if he wins for that can

with this have also an impact on relations with the west and, and how they view iran. is this the state which they are branding gets in a way that's what it's going to have an impact. like i said, i followed the debates and what i heard team claiming was that we cannot continue being costs the island being difficult to negotiation negotiations on diplomacy. means giving and taking so we need to be flexible. we need to show more flexibility . but yet we're not going to step down from our ideological values on our long term vision. now in the best case, he would be another rule, hardy, or he would be another hard time during the time of rule, how many or hard time you are that the suppose at the front runners of reform movement in a rod. what we witnessed in terms of relations with the west was that a little bit of just jet and this will be that they go see ations. but the more heart secure it, see gen dot, the regional aggression ms side program,

the violation of human rights. even the nuclear program has continued to expand, so we will have a friend the phase lot because i read wears very and get a west and accept an out fit. he speaks eloquent english, but to yes he is presenting the is lumber true public interest that he's protecting is going to true public interest, which is in the long run, very much difficult vision and the difficult, the sort of political system to deal with for the west well, thank you so much for joining us with your insights today. that is sar up as a bundle for the german institute for global and area studies. we appreciate your time and we can bring you up to speed with some other world news headlines right now. the us and is re lease officials say prime minister benjamin netanyahu is sending a delegation to resume installed, talks on a hosted release deal with him us your visuals held

a significantly revised proposal by him. us as a break through and said they were hopeful, it could lead to a permanent ceasefire. the greek labor unions have protested in athens. they are demanding withdrawal of a new law allowing a 6 day working week that took effect on monday. the government says it mainly applies for 24 hour businesses with shift systems and will, whose productivity but union say it is a rollback of hard one workers' rights. and you, as president joe biden has again said he has no intention of bowing out of his re election bed. as his campaign remains under pressure over concerns about his age, the 81 year old supporters, the white house that he has quoted, not going anywhere. he has base calls to step aside following a for debate performance against donald trump. all right, i'll come back out. any landmark decision is real supreme court has ruled that ultra orthodox jews must be conscripted into the military and doing annually 80

year long exemption, which is a popular decision in a country where almost every other jewish is rarely faces, the draft, but it is still contentions both in society and within the coalition government dw, it's funny for charge. now reports from jerusalem. when you turn 18 and east, well you have to report here a conscription center military service is mandatory for most men and women in the country. most adults have to serve in the military for up to 30 months. there are various extensions like for ultra orthodox jews who do not need to report here, but that's about to change. the supreme court has just ruled against a decades old exemption. most people like 3, the majority of these really say it's time to reduce extensions and for the ultra orthodox community to do more, they hope this would reduce the burden on everyone else. i may get them in. i mean,

i'm a reservist. i can't do 4 months or reserves service minimum, it's impossible and that's happening. so let's click, i must've protests against the conscription of ultra orthodox jews have been turning violent in jerusalem to them. enlistment means a secular way of life, contradicting their religious commitments. the supreme court ruling puts the governments in a dilemma prime and it's the venue, i mean, nothing else, ultra orthodox collision partners has threatened to quit his government if their community is conscripted. and yet society at large, most voters and the opposition parties would endorse such a change. i have been that there is good um, everyone has to be recruited to the um it yeah. if before it was a moral principle, now it is an extra spiritual imperative is the recruitment bill is

a great taste for the coalition. because if it continues to prioritize keeping the coalition together within the needs of the i'm a monkey room, so government may collect lots of kids of that. yeah. let me pull this is mia chevy? one of jim salems ultra orthodox neighborhood. it's rare to get permission to fill in here. you'll be able to music. we are just a few kilometers from parliament, but a world away from that section in our life. the days here are focused on closely following jewish religious law, traditions, and prayer. you tell more than a 1000000 is really slip around 13 percent of the population. does he or she wants to keep it that way? he's been an every protest against orthodox conscription. he says and reckons there's no way the government could enforce it. so for the most of the stuff they

can impose criminal sanctions on the people, but they are not going to go into neighborhood significantly. they don't have enough room and prisons now with 60000 just chiva students ready to go to jail. you can shut down the state about them being that 60000 t mentioned are conscription, aged ultra orthodox meant 3000 of them should be drafted immediately, according to the attorney general. but will they be sag? is an academic with a focus on is riley military ethics. he says, nothing will happen during the current summer recess. but the government coalition won't be able to delay the issue much longer than that. she'll be moved down this may lead sooner or later to elections. and we're at the cost of a total change of the societal balance of power in israel. what used to be will no longer be able to pass as my estimation on them,

because it's rarely society got on its back feet and said enough is enough. we cannot live this way. i must speak. you have certainly field hearing me or she already. you will hear says jewish religious law is incompatible with fighting for the secular israel state. he says men here will now do that. no matter the consequences for them, for the country. and just before we go, a quick reminder of our top story at this hour. a u. k is essential left of labor party is celebrating a landslide victory with 2 thirds of seats counted in the general election. the governor and conservatives, separate of big law staff for 14 years and power, the liberal democrats are in 3rd place, and an idol for roger's rightly populous reform party has won several seats. and what is your news update? hist our, i'm clear, richard for atlanta for me in the whole team working behind the scenes. thank you

so much for joining us. the near ups largest football tournament is in full swing fans from china to brazil are following. the action is germany, hosts the way for championship, for the 1st time since reunification. 35 years ago, the fans like the ample flow of beer. and i don't seem to mind an occasional cascade of rain, but time germany live up to its reputation as a model of efficiency and organization. delay trains, frustrate fans traveling to the matches, and discourage germans for whom such problems are just one more symbol of decline. kind of diverse, an agile german team help.
