10:05 pm
the suggestion that the e.u. will ultimately reject these proposals for this what they want above all is to demonstrate to any other country that might dream of following suit that you cannot leave the e.u. without suffering adverse political and economic consequences and what the check was proposals showed is that the united kingdom for all its power and might a network of influences around the world for all its been rable parliamentary history was unable ultimately to take back control. lawrence lee joins us live from the party conference in the city of birmingham lawrence just take us through what else mr johnson had to say. oh yeah i mean he's an extraordinary individual he here he affects this style where he could deliberately messes with his hair and looks deliberately scruffy sometimes as if he's just out
10:06 pm
of his spitfire having to face the office somewhere over the english channel and i think because he portrays himself as this great defender of britain he feels so mortified and furious that in his opinion the u.k. has basically surrendered to the european union over over the brits in negotiation really savaged their state this this plan of the prime minister and yet again has managed to upstage he he speaks in these in the almost a sort of general terms without any particular reference to detail other than to say come on chapter everything's fine tell you when off we go and we'll be fine and that worry about it. he didn't mention the r. is border once you know that's absolutely crucial but these these things seem not so matter either to him or to his supporters he's totally polarizing loads of consent then he said i absolutely hate him and abuse him openly and i mean it in
10:07 pm
public forums and yet at the same time because he is so passionate he can draw a massive crowd of people in the way that freezer may well be able to do when she speaks here tomorrow and there were enough hardly supporting the m.p.'s in the audience that if they all voted against a reason mates plan they will defeat it and that could still unseen so whether or not you think is ever going to come prime minister he does have something about him that they absolutely adore here he must have known as well as one assumes that he was talking to people like michel barnier he was talking to people. i'm just intrigued to get your take on how you think that speech were gunned down in stroudsburg in brussels. in paris in berlin etc. i mean they didn't even say anything they haven't said before he has a he has a column in a in a right wing newspaper here and any basically restated all of all of that stuff that they think they know what he's about they absolutely can't stand him but it in a more general sense relations between the european union and the u.k.
10:08 pm
governments are now descending or getting worse almost by the day another government minister here a couple of days ago tried to make a comparison between the european union and the soviet union which led to absolutely furious responses of the european parliament in strasbourg how dare you compare us to stalin and things like that called for him soon to apologize the european summits which they will decide if there's anything to to be done with a deal with the british just two weeks away after some morrow the european union has already said that it counts go with stories amaze planned so based on that assumption and they they will say forget it itself it will still serve leave that sort of bold a down the hill towards the sort of hard bricks at the boris johnson wants anyway with all the contingent things like car companies in britain saying they'll relocate to the consonance and let me skilled europeans moving out of the country anyway and so gradually boris johnson i think is essential getting his way even if
10:09 pm
he's complaining about the process he has lawrence in the past couple of weeks written a couple of front page sunday newspaper articles he was criticized off the back of those articles for not offering an alternative today in his speech on the issues of say trade customs services the irish border because that's that's a really big one because that's the border between the e.u. and the u.k. did he offer today in that speech an alternative to what mrs may says is the future . as i said as i said before he didn't mention the our support it once. and by the way just on the i.r.s. one of the rumors of back channel talks going on inside the government now with a view to reimposing potentially a whole border between northern ireland and the republic which would be the european union which would be disastrous for the good friday peace agreement and there are northern irish union as politicians saying the good friday agreement will have to be negotiated so all these things leads you to the conclusion that
10:10 pm
a hard brick sit with all the volatile contingents effects is actually more likely but in terms of johnson's ideas on trade he basically said tell them we're leaving we're going to the next two years at a negotiating what they call canada plus which is sort of a free trade agreements and in the meantime world trade organization rules but it has much less about the european union than doing deals with the rest of the world is not going on about trading with peru one point with a speech on how a company in london makes bus shelters in las vegas he's he's totally totally off message in terms of what you would expect moderate politics to be in the u.k. but that's that's what he wants to be to completely payne's the idea of the u.k.'s place in the world lauren circulator i'm sure in the meantime many thanks. the health ministry in gaza says israeli gunfire has wounded thirty seven palestinians at a protest on a beach thousands of palestinians gathered near the land and sea front here with israel to demand their right to return fisherman raised palestinian flags to

vivian balakrishnan says a commission of inquiry set up by a million miles government in july must be given a full mandate to hold people accountable he says other asean ministers back to the call at a recent meeting more than seven hundred thousand fled me and after the military crackdown that began in august of last year online giant amazon is giving three hundred fifty thousand workers a pay rise up to criticism of working conditions and pay rates in its big processing centers the company says workers in the u.s. will be paid a minimum of fifteen dollars an hour from next month and it's increasing pay for employees outside the u.s. to in the u.k. seven hundred thousand employees and twenty thousand seasonal workers will get more money the company has been condemned in recent years for running low pay high pressure reception centers and using contracts critics say are exploitative practical hane joins us live now from washington d.c.

what's the broader impact of all this party. well this actually really could have an impact on the u.s. economy amazon is one of the larger employers in the united states and for many of their workers this will be a significant raise fifteen dollars an hour some now start at just about ten dollars an hour and the amazon's also saying that for people who make more than fifteen dollars an hour they're also going to see a pay raise but they didn't say exactly how much that is going to be so how this works in the united states there's a federal minimum wage that the federal government says every hourly employee can't get paid less than seven dollars and twenty five cents an hour now some states and some cities have higher minimum wages than that but that is the federal guidelines so this is going to be a dramatic increase for anybody who is making that although amazon said they were paying their workers better than that and they're also hoping that other retailers will follow suit saying other big names retailers other service industry jobs that they need to see the increase as well. taking this decision today well
10:22 pm
there are a couple of things in their announcement they said they wanted to do the right thing that's according to amazon but they also mention that they have listened to their critics and there are several critics because think about this the founder of amazon jeff bezos is literally the richest man in the world he's a net worth of about one hundred sixty five billion dollars that's estimated so that means he's making hundreds of millions of dollars a day a day so the people have been saying look you're not paying your workers enough and this is a prime example of the huge income inequality gap in this country also you have to keep in mind the unemployment rate is very low so workers workers have a little bit more leverage companies need to do these pay increases if they want to get those low skilled workers and it's also the criticism obviously that was a factor especially from progressives and they can afford it just in the last quarter amazon made a profit of two point five billion dollars two point five billion dollars in three
