projects. department was founded at the united nations in 969 the un f.p.a. the united nations population fund through this ostensibly neutral path western governments channel millions into population control in developing countries the major donors besides the united states were sweden great britain and germany and switzerland. south korea was among the earliest testing grounds for population control the country was devastated after the korean war at the same time there was a baby boom with the highest birth rates in the world the united states participated in the reconstruction from the very beginning population control being high on the agenda. yet these 4 korean women grew up in a village 200 kilometers from seoul and still remember the war and the time that

followed. it did. busy you know all the hands him. tell them. will he be in a little he looked like they were getting a little. walk down the. i don't relays our knowledge to. go slow the regular. hello. to my. mom. who called me that period only i. want to also call and it doesn't look like we don't really want her there may have been down. tat 3 with the campaign email call with all who feel divided government that the long walk long long looked to cook a hitter in. the western family planners formed armies of so-called health workers

in cooperation with the korean government thousands of them combed the country registering fertile couples urging them to use contraception contraceptives publicly distributing that would have previously been inconceivable in south korea as well as in other parts of the world. in the uk then there in the room is that in the period that you're actually are in the. eye you don't know who are good to know what game or who your your own where their. payments are to condone so number of more i did 2. countries donated buses and jeeps that were converted into mobile medical units documents show that their task

was not health promotion the population council an american foundation expressed a clear cut mission to the korean ministry of health. these vehicles are given to help improve living standards in korea for bigger is attack on the problem of excessive population growth. cut it is a tree. compared to the one you got your dog to eat our modern cards are not going . well at the nickel i'm telling. you that fish can only. because of his let's kill them all original. instead of letting citizens plan their own families family planners made having fewer children a citizen's duty they were not interested in fighting poverty but only in preventing the poor from having babies.

mobile clinics in india went to secluded villages as early as 956 because indians were also supposed to have fewer children. western family planners flooded the country one of the pioneers was the american dr sheldon siegel he founded apartment for reproductive medicine in one of the largest state hospitals in new delhi and trained indian medical students. although early versions of i.e. d.s. had fallen into disrepute in the west siegel smuggled them to india in 1964 he declared them as christmas decorations at customs and had them inserted into the utah right of women without the knowledge of the government. in

a letter he wrote. the present approach is to distribute the ones i have on hand to private gun ecologists we are also inserting some in monkey utah right my feeling is that in the long run it may be faster to quietly accumulate evidence from these sources before trying to press for wider distribution in government family planning clinics i do not want to raise the question with health minister dr yar if the answer is likely to be negative because we would then be in a precarious position if the. studies at all. it didn't take long for the indian government to give the green light the united states agency for international development even sent non-sterile intrauterine device is to india serious complications often a rose sometimes with fatal consequences. despite this the family planners increased the pressure and the indian government

cooperated they said quotas for sterilizations an i.u.d. insertion paying doctors and health workers premiums who are an educated women were the main targets debate money and exchange for their fertility. so you have this system where people at every level or big being given money from the united states from the united nations from sweden from norway money to agree to sterilize ation or money to get other people to agree to sterilization even if in some cases that eventually bad rounding them are and trucking them to camps where they were sometimes sterilized under the most appalling circumstances. sheldon siegel visited one of these camps in 1962 he described it to his superior i spent sunday at a women's sterilization camp and found it fascinating after the surgeon sows up the

abdomen the ladies get off the operating table by themselves and walk out of the operating theatre i can honestly say that the operating conditions and adherence to sterility that dr and i observe in doing our hysterectomy is in monkeys for actual insertion are infinitely better yet who can argue with success. the situation in india got out of control in 1975 the government of india gandhi forced 8000000 women and men to undergo sterilization this dark chapter in indian history became known as emergency period.

the idea of population control what was so seductive to national leaders people like indira gandhi was the idea that they could achieve maturity in one generation and they could do it with crash programs even if it required taking some risks even if were some people were going to get hurt this was something that was going to make india a modern nation and was going to improve everyone's welfare in the long run what they didn't understand is that in many rural societies these children were their parents only source of security in all these right and not only that but in poorer societies even children in many cases are able to support themselves and help their parents even from a relatively young age. people or places like the population council or the ford foundation they realize that parents and poor societies in many cases prefer to have sons there what they began to think was if only they had some way of helping those parents determine whether the fetus was a female or male then they might along with abortion they might have a quicker way of reducing fertility rates the head of the population council

determines a clear direction in 1967 men did research efforts leading to improve contraceptive technologies or practical methods of determining the sex of an unborn child so that parents could be assured of the sun. in the early 1970 s. the time had finally come scientists develop chorionic villa's sampling or c.v.s. with this method a child sex could be identified before birth. abortion was forbidden in almost all developing countries sheldon siegel and his colleagues used their connections to the highest ranks in the u.s. government and with great success. henry kissinger was u.s. president gerald ford secretary of state at the time in a $974.00 document that was long kept classified he demanded the massive 50

population of developing countries and declared abortion to be an indispensable tool for population control. no country has reduced its population growth without resorting to abortion. while women in the united states were still heading to the streets to demand the right to control their own bodies american foundations and politicians were pressuring developing countries to legalize abortion. in the following decades a massive surplus of men was created in asia through the abortion of daughters the consequences are on the present in india today once again those who suffer most are girls and women of low socio economic standing like 19 year olds the jena.

and because of the law maybe said don't know a lot of. today's lives with her brother's family he is her protector and saved her life 3 years ago when she suddenly disappeared from her village. flashback after vanished shamsul sold everything travelled 2000 kilometers to new delhi and reported her disappearance to the aid organisation of nobel laureate such as. we know there. will be coming. in here. right. shams almost not able to accomplish anything on his own even the police turned him away several times when pressured by the aid organization the police finally took

action in the village or said gina was being held. there. a woman claiming to be mother in law pulled out a marriage certificate the shortage of women is particularly extreme in the north and indian state of hard yana parents desperately look for wives for their songs. you know. the village elder ultimately explained what happened to such a. lot of you tell your mother. they're going to take. you not if you go not them other than the common are you know. the truth finally came out when the residents turned the girl over to the police the entire village had collected money to buy the jena. for

a number of bachelors' she was married to one man and abused as a sex slave by 7 others this is one of the consequences of the severe lack of women in the. city it's not an exception. traffickers go through slums looking for girls when they disappear hardly anyone goes looking for them the traffickers are often acquaintances our neighbors. are. the. girls and women likes it gina suffered the consequences of population policies introduced an expedited by western family planners 50 years ago in india.

goods and had only boys so this was created by those who ordered academic medical profession promoted by a ford foundation and a lot of other and use we tried the whole project. i think that the students 40 or . so about 5. 100 people who are boy or girl. the gynecologist. was trained at the same hospital where sheldon siegel carried on his research. i was thrilled because the project this research is going to do that i think people are and how to find water it's a boy or girl before but by doing. so they produce a girl of course. prenatal sex

determination was the biggest breakthrough in population control this way girls were aborted on mass and birth rates were just 2 fold fewer babies were being born and fewer girls that could later bear children. daughters are weeded out in china as well one in 5 boys presently born one later not be able to find a wife mothers are worried they advertise at countless marriage markets for their surplus sons in shanghai there's such a market every sunday in people's part. of

the spin from the facts the misinformation from the journalism protesters complain about the under reported of police violence the sensationalizing of the demonstrations with the listening post on al-jazeera. i remember the 1st time i walked into the news room and it felt like being in the general assembly of the united nations visible so many nationalities. just different places but it's one that gives it gives us the ability to identify with the other side of the world but we can understand what it's like to have a different perspective and i think that is a strength for al-jazeera. in 2012 al-jazeera traveled to iraq people who are definitely scared to speak on camera they're saying that if they talk to us they think they'll be arrested down the line to take the pulse of a country ravaged under us occupation some of these graves are completely destroyed

it's one of the most holy and sacred sites in all of iraq turned into a battleground between the mahdi army and the americans rewind returns to iraq after the americans on al-jazeera. in london a quick look at the top stories this hour prime minister to resign may as announced her resignation schill stand down as leader of the conservative party next month triggering a leadership race but she'll stay on as the country's caretaker prime minister until a successor is chosen in late july may had been under increasing pressure to resign over her strategy. will shortly leave the job that it has been we didn't count on

my life to hold. the 2nd female prime minister but certainly not the last i do so with no ill will but with enormous during gratitude to have had the opportunity to serve the country. in all their lines u.s. president donald trump says america will send an additional $1500.00 troops to the middle east amid heightened tensions with iran trump says the deployment is mostly protective and will strengthen american defenses in the region u.s. democratic senator robert menendez says trump is citing the tensions with iran in order to clear the sale of billions of dollars worth of weapons to saudi arabia and the u.a.e. ministers have tried to block the arms sales fearing they would lead to more civilian deaths in yemen. meanwhile sudan's transitional military council has vowed to back saudi arabia against all threats and attacks from iran mohammad ham down

the gullah made the comments at a meeting with the saudi crown prince mohammed bin sunline in jeddah meanwhile in sudan protests demanding an immediate transition to civilian rule have continued in the capital protest leaders have called for a general strike across sudan on tuesday and wednesday. well police in algeria have arrested dozens of protesters rallying there in the capital algiers hundreds gathered in the city for the 14th friday in a row calling for the interim president. ben salah to leave office immediately elections are due to be held in algeria in july. and at least 8 people have been injured in a suspected parcel bomb explosion in the french city of leo the device exploded near a bakery in the center of the city those hurt in the blast appeared to have suffered superficial injuries i'll bring you more on all of those stories in the news hour that in about half an hour's time 2100 g.m.t.

do join me then bye for now. affluent americans started a new movement most of them were men from well known scientists to the super rich like john d. rockefeller the 3rd together they wanted to curb the large numbers of children worldwide. so you had the system where people at every level were big money from united states from the united nations from sweden from norway to agree to our money to get other people to agree to sterilization prenatal sex determination was the biggest breakthrough in population control this way girls were aborted on mass. daughters are weeded out in china as well one in 5 boys presently born one later not be able to find a wife. u.s.

president richard nixon and his secretary of state henry kissinger arrived in beijing and $972.00 it was a historic meeting with moussa tongue about the balance of power and the mutual commitment to world peace. there is no reason for us to be enemies. neither about domination over the other. neither of us seek to stretch out our. and waited world. but the fear of the americans of chinese supremacy and thus the supremacy of communism was great and the fear the chinese population growth seemed unstoppable. after nixon's visit the floodgates opened for western family planners the chinese

government had a sympathetic ear for them. successor deng xiaoping introduced the one child policy millions were trained as les health workers the so-called barefoot doctors their mission distributing contraceptives all over the country and ensuring that couples only had one child. an easy way of. young. family planning became a matter of state if anyone expected a 2nd child they faced draconian punishments. the government used graffiti on building facades warning people to obey you can beat it out you can kill it you just cannot give birth to it. although the media reported forced sterilization and abortions the west donated money to the chinese

population program at 1st this only came from organizations like the ford foundation but in 1979 even the united nations population fund a $50000000.00 to the chinese government. an employee of i p p f one of the donor organizations sounded the alarm. i think that in the not too distant future this will blow up into a major press story as it contains all the ingredients for sensationalism communism forced family planning murder of viable fetuses parallels with india etc when it does blow up it is going to be very difficult to defend. but the warnings were not only ignored the un population fund also presented china with an award for outstanding contributions regarding birth control who they choose to give it to it

wasn't a reproductive rights advocates you know it wasn't to people whose lives were risk because or trying to campaign to get people and especially women the right to own and control their own bodies it was just the opposite they decided to honor the leader of china's course of population control program a chinese general. you know who had presided over the most egregious period in the entire history of the program and they chose to honor indira gandhi who was responsible for what until then was the worst population program of all the emergency period program in india. why did the un population fund support countries financially that forced people to be sterilized and have abortions. you have to bring in money to improve the kind of contraception. if for example why you are improving the

health you also have to be in a country to be able to talk to authorities to say you have been invited us in. a better way of helping your women tell me the whole russia now for giving there are gandhi the 1st population or ward after the start was a forced sterilization of so many people as well as to the chinese. now. need to be very clear. that goes i will exact given by the united nations member states. it. struck. at that time the united states was the most important member state contributing 40 percent of the budget was the u.n. population fund simply the puppet of its benefactors.

40 years after these population policies supported by the west over 30000000 chinese men remain involuntary bachelors because of the shortage of women. this is why millions of unemployed men from rural areas move to the cities as migrant workers they aim to earn money to improve their chances of finding a bride. leapin works in a selfie stick factory near hong kong at 27 he also does not have a girlfriend yet. on your way. down there and for no it's for the what's her avoiding my answer. i'm going. what i've done the right. to live here paul you know that was there no way. of that and. that song was young i mean. so you know what's.

going. on. the number of congruent continues to increase especially in the countryside chinese women prefer well off men from the city. china's problematic a lack of women will not change in the coming decades current birth records show a continued gender imbalance amongst newborns. parallel to the increased lack of women the trafficking of girls prostitution and child abductions have risen dramatically in china. with a huge the activist to un visits the parents of pan shooting the little girl who

disappeared but he has no good news there is still no trace of their 3 year old daughter. you're. gonna. push it off until. the mendoza convent out come the house you know you may go a. message should only be a meal kind of some are good ole a mailshot is a commission as i'm sure and all knowledge to themselves she. hasn't been seen. the girls are often abducted by someone from the village before the child reaches the person who contracted to have are taken she will have passed through many hands with each transaction the price goes up ultimately the product girl costs roughly $8000.00 and for the buyers the deal always pays off.

but they are urging. their young daughters on. some of the irish officer under yvonne of the. toughest. there was a did you know someone would be as a big part of a sort of tightening up if you like in other years jada lara do you want to go to to avoid a busy are you off with a lump of a human. in riyadh bio jani i owe her the legion of the south florida. to some mama. who wouldn't. know you have been a hot young woman team in. the. gotos and you also neal you'll fuss in

a lot to need. to need the council on that one of the haha the. source on high density. statistics show the higher the surplus of men the higher the crime rate and the number of violent crimes against women. and how do you merican political scientist valerie hudson researches and teaches the impact of this surplus of men up to bush school of government in texas. is. that. you're creating a pool of already socially disadvantaged young men who are already predisposed to challenge the established order now you deepen their grievance there

is no hope for them to finally become adult men within their society without taking more drastic action. statistically the majority of crimes worldwide is committed by young unattached men when men enter into relationships or have children the likelihood of them committing a crime decreases. valerie hudson views asia's massive surplus of men as a serious threat to global stability. when you get instability and violence and. and security and the 2 most populous nations on earth i don't see how that that can spill over into global international relations whether we're talking about the rise of china whether we're talking about the future of india as it's a walk or see thing all these questions are affected by what's going on with the women of india and china.

meanwhile the indian government reacted and outlawed sex determination in the early 1990 s. and yet they have never been as many abortions of girls as today because with alter a sound technology sex determination has become cheap and safe. despite the ban it is only a question of money to find a doctor who is willing to break the law and reveal the gender of the unborn child . the middle class in india is growing and as expected educated indians want fewer children little has changed about the preference for sons especially in the upper class.

ameesha was 25 years old when she married a computer scientist. her father in law was a high ranking government employee. in india the bride must pay the groom's family a dowry ameesha gave her in-laws an apartment. having a son is like winning the lottery for some people in india. my love. to all load of love on monday they give got the lady lady gave me no. god will be book. may move would you believe that us and the media covered them with regard to tell your doctor get our doctor because i don't want to give up the magick wishing but the doctor just a jack of us only go to iraq as a good live world with a good day

a month that your girl like me like you would be a doctor and all that arcadia my 32 someone just there to look you the way which i low level doctor will they give the word us really. really a been dead and that was that i was able joske about me question what i made a boo horse me out they would tell me what you want done was working with. art here about. what to me more the main marian as i plainly ready. email you when we get game we all know games are going to be

a pretty as they were both the bad maybe bored frequently looking at the memo make a buck out of barely even be big time don't last time we will only guess a bigger game would ya say leave. me to. that. are good the way danny there's a. city. for a woman to be cast out by her in-laws is nothing short of the societal death penalty in india. on the last. really. as in china and india the lack of women of marriageable age in south korea has now

become a problem. you'll be happy about through with a little. to none that i mean doc you go. back you. have a good going home 10 months in the. book is a bigger man behind you. is it like. a gag and you put our cooking nottle we could i knew what the. bond market. was to be called it was. not. happy with almost the lucky. a lucrative business has emerged around women as a commodity that which is missing in one's own market after decades of selective abortion is simply imported from poor a neighboring countries. but south korea faces another

problem nowadays south korean women do not want to have children at all lation is drastically declining once again politics has intervened with drastic measures whereas young women 60 years ago were encouraged to have abortions now it is strongly frowned upon and criminally prosecuted to terminate a pregnancy lehi young and one she song to students from seoul recalled what they learned at school on the subject of abortion. so there were more. of the rich. and then some luck how to push an insult but. they were it's only us all. put our. look at who were skinny are who.

keeps the key all. these young women examine the subject of abortion for their master's thesis. and who directed the women's development institute in seoul for 25 years is an advisor to the students. the students tracked down dubious agencies that are betrayed illegal abortions for large sums of money once again women are the victims of population policy illegal abortions bear great health risks but the south korean government holds on to the ban of abortion today their mission is offspring at all costs.

also and on take it out. to get all in the. cook and i'm hopelessly that me on. their. start. to south korean government has gone so far as to publish a map of seoul on the internet showing where women of childbearing age live the darker the pink color the creative the selection for men seeking a wife. the chinese government has also noticed that a society without women will die out in the long run

a 2 child policy has been introduced in hopes of regaining a gender balance and solving the problem of an ageing population. the government is again resorting to advertisements on building facades this time it is for daughters and therefore for potential future mothers. no girls no daughters in law. the government in india is also backpedaling it also wants to motivate people to give birth to daughters there's one information campaign after another once again the indian government is offering incentives. whoever gives birth to a daughter receives $35.00 us dollars and a think you letter from the ministry of health and family welfare. the gynecologist puny baby is familiar with the pressure on pregnant women he too

performs abortions but never when it is a matter of the sex of the fetus dr beatty does not think much of the new government programs. give me one reason ho ho i suppose as a woman she was pregnant who was there were born to school whose been the day she was born she was told that she's because she's a woman and then she gets pregnant in a new home we're. telling her every day that you know you know. if you produce a girl. or you don't raping a boy or when to go to live asian sport bow it doesn't work no ultimate solution is of course that people start. respecting girls more than boys. do you wanted to protect the world from

a population explosion but they waged war on the poor not on poverty they supported education and economic security of women birth rates would have gone down on their own instead they forced contraception sterilization and abortion. history is repeating itself the u.n. population fund still use a 60 percent of their aid fund for family planning and once again private foundations demand population reduction at the time they based their arguments on scarce resources today in this climate change. makes me nervous just as the 19 fifties and sixties it was a rockefeller and ford foundation that issued marching orders to people all over the world it makes me nervous when i hear it's the gates foundation now because of its money that's preying upon a role in global public health similar you know when back in the native fifty's and sixty's you had leaders from all over the world agreeing that population growth was

a crisis right and agree that the united nations had to implement crash programs it makes me nervous now when people talk about the crisis of climate change and how. it is who might even have to engage in crash programs. today africa is the main focus for population control the world bank and the u.n. population fund i'm currently pumping millions into family planning on the 2nd largest continent and a large american corporation is supplying the ultrasound devices as in china south korea and india people in most african countries prefer sounds.

a lot again it's good to have you back when we are watching one final system as we go into the fall this front could bring some very cold air across much of the area as a matter of fact in the higher elevations particular down here towards tasmania that's exactly what we're going to be seeing and that's going to turn the rain to snow in the overnight hours here's a fun about it with all of the clouds notice the temperatures are hovering into the mid to high teens adelaide as well as over here towards melbourne once that pushes through temperatures are going to drop and particularly down here towards tasmania

clung on for months despite losing 3 parliamentary votes on a plan and suffering constant attacks from her own policy but now in an emotional speech to resume a has announced that she will resign as leader of the u.k.'s ruling conservative policy on friday the 7th of june to present donald trump state visit to the u.k. a leadership contest will then begin the following week with may staying on as prime minister until her replacement is chosen in late july the leader of the official campaign boris johnson is the favorite to win and what's expected to be a field dominate. by breaks it support says whoever replaces how will then have until oct 31st to deliver breaks it that is the deadline for britain to leave the european union well sunday gago is outside parliament in westminster where she has been following the day's events and joins us live now and of course we do have another deadline coming up in a few months time but whoever replaces to reason may is going to be faced with all

the same problems when indeed maryam and this there's no question of this this still going to same is faced the same challenges where they're going to have to try to square that brics it will invariably those challenges are still the numbers in parliament they do not have any majority of any kind to be able to pass a no deal scenario disorderly bricks if you will no on the other hand is there any majority for a 2nd brics it referendum a so-called people's vote parliament is entrenched this far the sides on either side of this argument here are still sticking to their guns and it's very difficult to see how the next leader is going to be able to treves this and try to sort of find some kind of consensus given that if it does turn out that there is going to be able. to lead in the coming months then it's going to cause

a lot of problems my colleague paul brennan has all the events leading up to today's resignation it is in the best interests of the country for a new prime minister to lead that effort to recent days resignation announcement speech began a little hesitantly and reluctantly but with her close friend husband philip standing by for support the prime minister conceded defeat. it is and will always remain a matter of deep regret to me that i have not been able to deliver breck's it she will officially step down as party leader on june the 7th but remain as prime minister until her successor is chosen in the end though the emotional strain of recent months overcame her i will shortly leave the job that it has been the honor of my life to hold. the 2nd female prime minister but certainly not the last i do so with no ill will but with enormous and enduring

gratitude to have had the opportunity to serve the country i love the prime minister's resignation became inevitable after a hostile reaction to her final breaths at compromise offer even senior figures within her own party were demanding that she quit now that she has many of those same critics have now praised her dignity and determination i found it moving actually i think that we know the promises to the heart and soul is trying to do the best for this country at a difficult time facing a challenging climate and palm and many of those currently paying tribute are keen to succeed her in the top job more than a dozen conservative m.p.'s could contest the leadership with the new prime minister emerging by the end of july but parliament then takes a 6 week recess and some observers see the whole process as self-indulgent with the october 31st deadline approaching we are wasting the time that's been allotted to us we are wasting good will and the next prime minister will have no different

arithmetic from theresa may the same problems in parliament getting the deal through by the same proms in parliament if they try to get no deal with the opposition labor party is demanding a general election is a new conservative leader isn't going to solve the problem. there has to be another opportunity for the people of this country to decide who that want government how they want the government to run what the long term structure is of that government i think we did a general election in brussels reaction to the resignation was diplomatic presence younker followed prime minister maze and now this morning without personal injury the president very much liked and appreciated working with prime minister may and as he has said before terrorism a woman of courage for whom she has great respect choosing to re some a successor is a 2 stage process with conservative m.p.'s 1st with lean down the candidates to a final 2 and then a postal ballots of the party's wider membership choosing the winner the early

frontrunner is boris johnson who has massive support among the 125000 grassroots conservative members but he enjoys less support among parliamentary colleagues the party's internal divisions who once again generate international repercussions it was breakfast which marked the beginning and end of teresa mayes premiership it will certainly mark out her successor paul brennan al-jazeera. and it's also important to remember the view in brussels because that was that has already been a building sense of frustration just hasn't been much clarity on the u.k. position and the vision for a future relationship with the e.u. how might they view today's developments. well as paul mentioned they have been diplomatic in their reactions as well but it's not without an element of caution as well certainly there have been. certainly there's been no rejoicing over the fact

that the reserve may has stood down because of course this throws the whole process again into uncertainty and uncertainty was the one thing that they had hoped to have been done by now has certainly given this extension and when the extension was given the head of the european donald tusk did say to the u.k. use the time wisely or with all of this this is not going to be regarded as a wise decision certainly on the part of brussels as well and if you go along to other countries as well ireland the u.k. is neighbor the pm leo varadkar even said the island was and was entering a potentially dangerous situation given that the uncertainty now over with the withdrawal agreement and the implications that it has for the u.k.'s neighbor and trying to resolve the so-called backstop issue which could maintain the sort of

crossing of goods between northern ireland and the irish borders well so all that uncertainty really has left many european politicians quite frustrated to say the least but also don't make any mistake that they will be willing to bend in any of the any of this after march here they are certainly sticking to their guns as many as several voices have come out today that we draw agreement that to resume a negotiated with brussels is not up for negotiation that's the message that is coming from brussels loud and clear maryam thank you very much with the latest from westminster sony go through the maze decision could further complicate the brics it process the withdrawal agreement had so far stalled in the british parliament and as you were hearing leaders are really urging the u.k. at this point to clarify their position so then what happens now it has more from paris. well the big question for european union leaders is what does to reserve

may's resignation mean for briggs it we've heard from the french president a man will not call calling for rapid karf occasion spain's prime minister says that for him it looks as if the heartbreaks it is the most likely outcome whelan's prime minister very concerned about what it would mean for ireland talking about entering into now a very dangerous period indeed britain was supposed to be leaving the european union this year it was post effect in march that was delayed they had a summit in april e.u. leaders and to reason they agreed on a new deadline or october 31st but of course european leaders do not know who they will now be dealing with who will replace to resume a will it be a hard line breaks it is so to speak the only thing that is certain is that the european commission spokesperson says that there will be no new renegotiation of the withdrawal agreement but there is no doubt that sense of frustration that has been there within the e.u. circles for many months now and years over the break that process is only getting

worse all the german chancellor angela merkel has expressed respect for 2 reason may and says will continue to work closely with the u.k. to secure an orderly exit. we respect this decision i've always had a good working relationship with prime minister to resign me the departure of the u.k. from the european union is a major transition and regardless of what happens in british politics the german government will do everything to achieve a good partnership an orderly exits and good cooperation. all theresa may will be remembered for presiding over one of the most chaotic periods in the country's modern political history lawrence looks back almost 3 years as prime minister of the united kingdom and it's safe to say it's not been an easy right. so well the new prime minister from the political chaos that followed the bricks and river. and i'm set out her agenda which suggested

a bold change of direction for the governing conservative party we will make britain a country that works not for a privileged few but for every one of us. that will be the mission of the government i lead and together we will build a better britain. she been the home secretary in charge of the police immigration and security for several years with a reputation for hard work competence respected but not loved by colleagues but as prime minister less than a year into the job it was her decision to call and a necessary election and that was the beginning of the end of the campaign was an inspiring stories amaze message repeated so often do you trust to have been strong and stable leadership strong and stable leadership that strong and stable government the results well her face said it that night she and the concern.
