1:23 pm
the prime minister but that would require the support of. downside she was looking forward to with a busy week the prime minister trying to give the impression of a leader in crisis. well a resignation letter sir prime minister may have caused a stir on mine but they're just the latest twists in the backs of story a tale told through a number of hashtags in recent weeks blue farit use hashtags stop brecht to say official designed to save themselves from going down with the sinking ship tell doron however approves of a so-called hard breck's and saying he'd vote for them to be the next conservative party leader but rex accord major guy verhofstadt tweets walking out of the government won't make rex it go away and hopes for unity as a means to find an agreement that works for me thanks to make it so joining us now
1:24 pm
from london to help us understand a way breaks it is headed my take is the c.e.o. of my life my say that's a useful lead nonpartisan movement working to foster political dialogue and secure a better break state amanda chetwynd callison is the co-founder of futures sake a youth organization advocating for people's vote on the terms of the brics deal and don't support it is a professor of economics at king's college london he also researches for the think tank u.k. in a changing hello everybody i'm just thinking about that term that phrase breaks shambles looking here amanda on my laptop voice johnson i am proud to serve as a foreign secretary it is with sadness that i step down here's my letter explaining why is this part of the brics shambles as far as you're concerned and how would you describe the last three days i mean in shambles almost doesn't really go far enough where the absolute key thing to me or stepping down is it's about boris it's about
1:25 pm
his own career it's about his ego it's not about the country or even his party to a certain extent if he really really thought that him stepping down with the signing of what was to come in his letter would have included what he would have wanted to have seen that would have options and different on the table but instead it just worked out on about him so. i was with boris. doesn't just doesn't even go far enough to be what the last few days have been jonathan you're smiling. well i agree with that i mean i think you know barr is about forests and his letter as i have just said is about here it was full of frankly of the law is actually the challenge for i'm going to do a very good fact experienced for what's actually came out and said. doris this letter is simply lied about you know so i think we can hardly dismiss that but
1:26 pm
i think the more substantive point is the point. made which applies not just the bar spoke to the more serious pro breaks it forces who don't support teresa mayes current approach they don't really have an alternative strategy so the problem is really a problem for the country as a whole not just for the conservative party is mrs may strategy is generally the it's a lowest common denominator strategy nobody remainer is leave her most of the conservative party the labor party no one really likes it but equally no one at the moment has a terribly coherent alternative and they certainly know will turn if in which commands a majority of the country there isn't a majority to reverse the referendum despite what amanda was like that's just not there at the moment there isn't a majority for that boris johnson are breaks and there isn't a majority for that theresa may rubbish break said and there isn't a majority for that labor party let's have our cake and eat it breaks it either so
1:27 pm
we're at something of a turning point and we don't really know which direction to go and we don't know drift this well go it and i think that explains why there are men so many differing opinions on line and spout so a couple of people weighing in on the resignations in the shambles this is rachel who says i voted to remain and i still would my daughter is looking for work in a damn company and european ones are not even auditioning u.k. dancers at the moment as regards resignations it's too little and too late i dread to think of what mr hunt will do as. and secretary another person weighing in this is even who says boris johnson's resignation is stemming from his foresight the whole exodus is bound to blow up so he's press the eject button before it crushes haven't met him wondering what you think of this last tweet this is the way to get out of things before they all blow up. well yeah fortunately i think well our generation is really disappointed because i think so many young people across the
1:28 pm
country don't decide enough there's this whole big debate about breaks it across the country comes to the area and the media maybe still don't understand what exactly it means and we just want to get on with me i mean i think about how we could build a country a country got lots of features generations and like for example i agree with john and i think there is a not the type for a second referendum all any alcohol even the young people of long departed to remain upbeat get want to get on and i think it's i got my hopes and i think we've got to lead remain could a vote that evoke at this point it doesn't matter what we need to do is for you to start liking to go out and come towards a common future hopeful of the future of our country and i think the most shocking thing to settle for many people don't understand well how is that possible is that conversation. well i mean you look at the most people question after we left the european union what we switch was what is the european union on google i'm not what it's like if you had
1:29 pm
a three month period or three four month period it would all to a referendum which you know this country i was an educated about what your opinion does that are anything about the issue of it i'm not part of a problem that we had in the u.k. people don't even know what the no national government does we don't have to school and civic education and you can't which is why it is sort of a little time out among young people because it's not that they don't care about the issues that make them was they do it's about legacy traditional forms of politics as a big which are going to those issues that they care about so at this moment you know we have this bubble in westminster which is constantly talking about brings it i don't think for most of the country people are angry out of the young people are angry about something if you ask people whether they're not happy about it they'll probably say you know normally yeah we don't think race is going to be a good thing but i don't think if you said to people like i have we had so many focus groups and events with young people when you ask them what rights you can send about music and there's none. push no say back to well i don't know what rights i have to lose because i want to be educated so until people stop the city
1:30 pm
to fix it that's when they'll be start to be angry better so we're in unfortunately you know people don't know what's happening and they just want to go on that jonathan let me just share this with our audience. on the eleventh king of a think tank or the u.k. and changing to reason may seem. rex a. explain cia pay. well. that was a pod and in that the government actually came out with a which has said we should have a customs and regular alignment period. that are out of the way of solving some of the problems that arise from leaving the customs union and leaving the single market in particular as related as regards state of the border for northern ireland so it was a pond but it does actually describe i'm afraid rather what originates breaks it
1:31 pm
looks like it of course or a stone ship used pretty much the same language in describing that to raise a matter to breaks it during the famous cabinet meeting at checkers last wait i'm not i think as i said the great set that theresa may has come up with is a sort of lowest common denominator it keeps us have been and i have asked of the mechanisms of the european union in particular the cost of single market. but. it doesn't give us any sort of poets in how those regulations are made in future so it really isn't going to satisfy anyone it won't satisfy the people who want us to be completely free of eight am one times five people want us to stay part of the single market to maintain freedom of movement and the other mechanisms that apply the moment but he. it's not really any coherent alternative on the table i'm certainly not coming from bruce johnston and david davis as about to said they
1:32 pm
walked out so they were happy but they didn't give us any sort of alternative i had . an equally we don't really have a coherent clout that involves remaining in the either that i think is right at this moment there isn't a matter tight as a moment among the public it's a how to reverse for it so we are stuck in this limbo. and it cadillac at some point something will have to get we will have to make some decisions but we don't seem to be ready for that yet you know it's interesting john the thing the reason we're in this limbo according to a few people online is because the prime minister herself wanted to remain in the air this is richard a tweet he sent to saying he will be in a far more stronger position now that those two ministers have resigned may if they remain are and she'll do anything to stay in the e.u. bubble as the old saying goes a leopard never changes its spots and one more person
1:33 pm
sent us a video comment this is steven waffen f. former stream gas then a member of european parliament and he talks about that very same issue have a listen to reason maids come with a meeting in checkers effectively delivered a remaining two and the death of brit since no one now believes having read the communique that she truly believes in bringing back control of all animals from the european union not paying money in some form to the european union be controlled by the european court of justice and also controlling immigration it is very clear that she is delivering a remainer bret's it is not a true breakfast. and their audience coming. out of couldn't see their well while she was talking you could see a man a kind of shaking your head side to side john and i know i mean you want to get in but i want to hear what was behind not for amanda i just and when they could remain
1:34 pm
i could like ending freedom of movement leaving the single market leaving the customs union like what leaving and still happened three times that like that is not anything to do with remaining the government of god in a massive charm offensive on this that trying to sell it as a soft because i think a compromise is going to be the only way they can get people around it like the stuff leavers the soft remain isn't that what they need because currently three of my just doesn't have a parliamentary majority conder for anything but definitely for any form of controversial so when you leave in a single market and you're leaving the customs union and you're ending freedom of movement and your ending the jury. that is that's not a stock that has a heart but both david couldn't hack it they didn't they didn't whatever kind of say ok maybe that's ok but that's no and you know yeah we're leaving but we might have the same rules because it doesn't fit with that narrative so i just to me that . that can be a hard approach that if you try to pop in with the notice we just left like tomorrow with a contest. i'm well i slightly disagree with amanda i mean i do think that tori to
1:35 pm
reason made this proposal whether you call it harder soft is a much softer form or breaks that davis or jordan or steven wolf what light. and i think steve and it's who i've been on i think i may have been on this show with that a while back david is at least consistent is vengeance breaks it makes sense it is we cut our ties with the e.u. completely or out completely we term were treated as a turd third country and we're treated by them as a. country and that's logical and deliverable and actually be said if we want to do that we can it's up to us the problem is that a. the vast majority of serious economists think it would do very serious damage to the u.k. economy and business grace. and be he's not what a majority of the people voted for what a majority of people want there was never
1:36 pm
a majority in parliament in the country. certainly not in business. for the sort of breaks it's even wants and the idea that oh it's all the fault of. backstabbing remainders i'm the reason they are it's all of fault of conniving brussels bureaucrats or someone and so forth which is the sort of narrative you get from statesman and people like john said just doesn't make sense and this is not the sort of places he wants is perfectly also full but it is not what the british public want to know of the british parliament wants and it would be absolute disaster for the u.k. economy so it can't happen the question is well well it can't have if it does happen it will happen by accident on the question is how do we get through this in a way which does somehow command some sort of majority support i also agree with them and i've heard that you know get it treated base
1:37 pm
a compromise. that's majority support either and that's what i was. demonstrated met i want to play this to you i'm going to do. something i found it on amanda's twitter page ok so this is what i found on her twitter page people to vote u.k. it's the a brand new secretary jeremy hunt and just listen to what he says towards the end met a very interesting but what i'm saying is that when we have negotiated the terms of our departure this is a huge decision this will have an impact not just for the next five years but the next seventy five years the terms of our trade with our countries on our doorstep is unbelievably important terms of the jobs the opportunities for young people for many generations and i do think that people should have a chance to have their say on those terms and people should be able to have their say on those terms more stones and has left this is the new foreign secretary would he just say what does that mean just be just what it was not which is what.
1:38 pm
you. what i own opinion what happened that is they go back to have been any sort of referendum on. on breaks it won't be helpful at all because i forget that one of the reasons why we had breaks in the first place is because people felt that if i was trying to do an actual system we live in a country where if you live in where i did for example with your consent to vote you've got no chance in your heart don't count and buy stocks that are places in across the u.k. where you live in a conservative area in your neighborhood so your post doesn't count nationally but it brags that our friend then let us read that it was a process electoral system by people it was won by one person and many can fight in power not as a way to express i think if you want to revise the decision i mean it's times in so much you know if that say for example you had another referendum and now it was rejected then any would like to see it will be a enough aside what that means that we thought referendum cicely i think you know i
1:39 pm
mean that's not the way to go for what i think there is an insight among the public up and get want to get on with it i think i would just distance what john done has been a man that was sane and again you know when we even went to media the way the media described sprigs i don't think it's helpful while we talk about every minus what breaks it the most we talk about hottest regs it will because it says ok no school of languages again what it does is it puts us into these two different camps that existed during the referendum and i don't think it's helpful we don't break one of the want to keep finding is a phrase i want to keep things i might as outbreaks divide it between young and old between cities and towns between those who practice among graduates and i think the more we keep inviting back to two years ago the more not those divisions are more exacerbate and i don't think it's helpful the way you move forward i think it's unified and i think if you want to rejoin if you want to think about state in the e.u. i think i would have to be. rejoining the european union maybe for my generation where we're about i think it's all been about repressed and breaks it you know i
1:40 pm
don't think it's not helping people lose i mean people don't even trust that was why would they trust in the future again. keeping about in mind i want to share two perspectives one of the groups is the one that may not this is hayden who says it is strange i was on a march a few weeks ago with hundreds of thousands of people of all political persuasions hoping we could gain a people's vote the mood was optimistic and defiant personally u.k. labor have disappointed me greatly but i like others will not be deterred now they got pushed back this is tom who says in the country the silent majority still want brecht's it a people's vote are deluded if they think a new referendum could be one especially after the establishment have tried to shaft them i manda that's wholly i wish it were limited to looted. i mean personally think more deluded is boris like we've just gone there everything he's ever said and even hunt is needed and rob the new. secretary to have these visions
1:41 pm
that just so i'm representing particularly of what younger generations want but i think what's really interesting there was an icon of the wording in the second tweet it picked up on being in london and it's all about in the march where a hundred thousand people came to that march when i was one of the organizations that helped organize it and my friend ruth they came buses came from all over the country like the way was from liverpool from calls from devon from north but this wasn't the london metropolitan elite marching through london it was a genuine variety equal like rich or black what walking through london because they were so annoyed that we're going to lose jobs are going to a clone of me is going to be. nobody can point to a good news story out of it right now it takes quite a lot to get a hundred thousand people from all across the country walking through the streets of london in a protest jonathan as a professor of economics who was studied it said and the economic impact it may have on the united kingdom and on europe of course as well would you like to also
1:42 pm
one of the guests who is not a professor of economics. well i mean i think the question i'd like to ask methody in particular reason i have some sympathy with this point if you as i said i don't think he's right and yet you get a tie for second referendum but the divisions east coast about which come through very clearly in the party but how is this that i as an economist and my political science colleagues did deficiency come eighty eight sets out there they are they're not they're not you were not produced by breaks it and nothing in the economic analysis that that i've done or anybody else has done just that they will be sold by brags that if anything they are likely to be made worse by bright said. question i'd like to ask a mr you have given that grade say it is and i suspect he actually grazer this president is not the solution to the divisions essential economic divisions of the
1:43 pm
u.k. why is it that we should be doing and how easy it exactly that we can with breaks that hanging over us and i likely get absorbed some much of the political and policy energy ate in the u.k. or than a few years you know how do we get over how do we think how does he say wait for this but i actually thought it very difficult of course you know i wish i had that step. saying can't just assume that question and read say go for it i admire you even try outs to get arizona to arkansas others and that is thinking up the response and i thank them for it it's. just all just make clear from the start you know i'm someone you are going to remain probably will still be liking the main part of the european union i just don't think you do i think going against that with us that the i think will open us into a very dangerous route you know we're very lucky in the u.k. where you are that people are not usually skeptical about the outcome of elections
1:44 pm
the number of parts of the world is a big problem where people really trust the elections and i think that if we try to go back to ross i agree with donovan i think there are big problems i think we just and it so we have on the all party parliamentary group in a bathtub exit for young people and we just our nation mightn't be on whether young people believe that this current government will be able to deliver. in the future generations and many young people who don't get it don't believe that once that being and they don't feel that you know this government will take the pursuit of breaks it. live up to reach generations because some of the issues like amanda mentioned that matter also movement of course a massive major issues but you know i think we need to have a real conversation with with the european union about looking about how we can actually go forward and i think part of the problem with threes may's government is right out the outset there will die a lot of different options that were on the table and i think i get particularly the conversation i had with the european union when i went to meet with them off
1:45 pm
their. report which i've been there isn't a real opportunity to think about crane it was both. i know i sound like a break and when i say this you know when we talk in the weeks of male model what we talk about is just model these models didn't exist before this race on the weekend or the i'm so why can't we have you came with slava generation i mean let me you know i said are we to remain i wish britain never by. they are big about my generation of the separation i don't care about the politics of it so i was. already going there very pragmatic might say and amanda and jonathan thank you often i'll go super fast let me show you something here has a countdown clock from the think tank that does that as part of the u.k. and a change in europe how many days hours minutes and seconds before breaks it actually happens you know. house we end our conversation with this live comment on you tube from blue green who says there can only be

1:50 pm
started president trump used his breakfast with nato secretary general to attack his allies focusing on one in particular germany is totally controlled by russia because they were getting from sixty to seventy percent of their energy from russia and a new pipeline and you tell me if that's appropriate because i think it's not and i think it's a very bad thing for later and i don't think it should have happened and i think we have to talk to germany about it the secretary general looked taken aback maybe the lions will turn to my mate but the president kept up his extraordinary attack but germany as far as i'm concerned is captive to russia because it's getting so much energy from russia so we're supposed to protect germany but they're getting their energy from russia chancellor merkel who's just survived a bruising political battle at home had this response to this fresh assault tarball
1:51 pm
civil and tired though it's months i have myself witness that parts of germany were controlled by the soviet union and i am very happy that today we are unified in freedom as the federal republic of germany and that's why we can say that we make our own policies and we make our own decisions. despite that comment she looked as though the ferocity of trump's words had affected her she was hardly smiling as she interacted with the others. the president and the chancellor of boarded each other out walking at different ends of the procession then what's known as the family photo at a time of family feud as helicopters flew overhead the tension was high the leaders clearly aware the current divisions are among the most serious this alliance has faced in its almost seventy years of existence. finally when chancellor merkel and president trump actually met the language was much more conciliatory than earlier.

1:53 pm
insufficient amount of money being spent by the german government the point to make here is that for the german government they have committed to raising their defense spending to the correct ratio in the nato summit in wales and twenty fourteen but both main parties that vied for the chancellorship in last year's general election very clear that they were not going to reach that kind of target in the life of this parliament frankel americal when she heard president transfer marks she chose to speak to reporters saying effectively that is somebody who'd grown up in communist east germany she was very grateful now to live in a free country not dictated to by other countries where germany could plow its own pharo politically that's something she i think that she has returned to the question will be what sort of fall out there will be long term regarding the relationship to cuba leave between germany and the united states this summit is a very important occasion for the twenty nine member countries question as i say is
