earlier this week, my colleague lewis vaughanjones spoke with salome zourabichvili, the president of georgia, about the possibility of a veto. you've said you will veto it. when will you do that? i have two weeks to veto that law, and most probably they are going to override the veto unless they now are going to again withdraw under the combined pressure of the people on the streets and ourfriends and partners. in that case, they can simply let the veto be and that will be very easy. or they can simply themselves block the law and decide and announce that they will consider a different type of law that they would discuss with partners, or simply againjust throw it back after the elections. we have elections in five months now, on the 26th of october. and so the georgian population will decide whether they want europe with its values and laws and legislations, or whether they want to turn their back on europe and its values and legislations. and so down the road, which is unknown. let's go live to our correspondent rayhan demytrie, who is in tbilisi. what has the president said today?

hello and welcome to bbc news, i'm lewis vaughanjones. bnd between now and six o'clock, i'll bring you coverage and analysis of the local elections. results are still trickling in, but what we know so far seems to suggest a bad day for the conservatives, a fairly good day for labour, and gains for the greens, the liberal democrats, and a host of independents elected. among the headlines — labour won control of councils in redditch, thurrock, hartlepool, and rushmoor in hampshire. but they lost oldham to no overall control. for the conservatives — there was a huge swing in their loss of the blackpool south by—election to labour. four councils were also lost. but their candidate ben houchen won the race in the tees valley to stay on as mayor. the liberal democrats have been targeting conservative areas in the south of england, hoping to establish a base to fight for those seats in the general election. unlike the other leaders, sir ed davey�*s media event was held in the south in winchester. complete with — as you can see — cons
