can somehow wave a magic wand and get rid of all these appalling problems the. conundrum the the fact that you know the tory vote was 9 percent in the european elections that they somehow believe his schtick that he can solve this so i mean what he's suggesting that he can yes they have to leave by the 31st of october and whether it's with a deal or not and the current chancellor has already said that that he set himself up for a fall is kind of driving britain to a bricks it cliff cliff edge at speed wow how likely is it that the e.u. will actually want to reopen this agreement particularly for him for abortions well do they know they do know and they turn like him i mean there are several european leaders who will not be in the same room as him they find him so arrogant say do places that they literally don't want to be anywhere near him they are not going to open this deal for anyone they are particularly not going to reopen it for boris johnson he does the very reverse or did the very reverse of what

a foreign secretary should do is make alliances make friends around the world he ruptured alliances he made enemies around the world and now britain is in a much worse state than it was before the i mean there's been some international gaffes that have been quite significant it would those be something that count against him and on an international stage oh i think i think you see a sort of a figure not of fun but as a dangerous figure a figure that can any in a people that can break up important alliances that can just offend people and what's the point of putting your trust in boris johnson when he seems to change his mind every day and doesn't stick to his promises i mean i suppose some people who are his supporters might argue that actually he's someone who can be on both sides of the fence and kind of perhaps be unified was that certainly what he was claiming his news conference was going to unifying and i mean what you would have dealt with him sort of person in washington book presumably or who have spent a lot of people who worked with him what is it about him that that is the kind of secret to that sort of the fact he's got as far. it considering some of the kind of

the drawbacks that you've mentioned yes i mean i used to work with him i know who wrote personally aspects of over 200 other people who got to know him very well personally as well i think what he has is his tremendous self belief and sometimes that's a very very powerful issue but self belief is not enough now it isn't just about britain but just one country of 28 negotiating this deal and the fact is is that he does take us out on 31st of october with us to deal with this increasingly likely frankly then that is a catastrophe for this country and yes that would be bad for people but also people's lives we're not going to have the medicines that we need we may not even have the food that we need this is no laughing matter whatever he may may try to make it appear so new but i thank you very much indeed for your thoughts thank you the least 49 people have died and 14 others are missing after heavy rainfall hit southern china thousands of houses have reportedly collapsed and 300000 people have

major changes to the u.k.'s climate policy in the coming decades with one eye on the stop wishing her legacy beyond the ongoing bricks and chaos to reason may's announced legislation committing britain to reach a 0 carbon emissions by 2050 this is about the long term climate targets we're proud of the world leaders meeting record we have but i absolutely agree that it is vital that we continue this work and make sure that we protect our planet for generations to come if passed it would make britain the 1st of the g. 7 group of major economies to put a net 0 target into law in other words balancing carbon dioxide emissions with carbon removal measures or simply eliminating emissions altogether but the leader of the opposition sounded skeptical insisting the bay government's record on supporting efforts to combat climate change was poor another sector that has been filed by the government is that of the renewables industry. solar installations

a critical time in the islamic republic japanese prime minister shinzo ave landed at marabout airport where he was greeted by iran's foreign minister zarif. officially this visit is to mark the 90th anniversary of the 2 countries diplomatic relations and president has an rouhani was on hand at south palace in tehran to greet the prime minister. following the 2 and a half hour meeting behind closed doors the 2 leaders emerged with strong words yeah i was going to be john did not we are not interested in starting a war with the united states but if anyone starts a war with we will be resolute in our response. and the japanese prime minister was very clear that his visit was not just to celebrate diplomatic relations. iran is a member counterculture mantra no honey that the reason i'm here is to avoid attention once iran must play

a constructive role in the region and will not give up i hope today's visit will be a 1st step in achieving the goal of stability in this region japan has long been an ally of iran it bought over $2000000000.00 worth of oil from tehran last year but since u.s. sanctions were introduced it has stopped. and that is why hasn't heinies asking the japanese prime minister to convey the message to the u.s. government that economic war will not help bring iran to the negotiating table the best thinking wrong expects from japan is to japan as prime minister is to tell the americans that. what is your odds expectations. for any kind of you know possible to new talks between the 2 sides as a non-signatory to the 2015 uclear agreement japan has a unique vantage point it is seen as an outside party that could try to deescalate tensions in this region with all the diplomatic activity that's been taking place

here in the past week it is clear that the international community is on a mission to try and ease tensions between the united states and iran but none of the efforts by foreign powers have so far managed to make a difference and it is too early to tell if the visit by japan's prime minister will be more successful dorsets a party al-jazeera to iran. u.s. special representative for iran says america has been coordinating with japan about his visit and will continue its campaign of maximum pressure on terror on. prime minister abbay did land in iran today we've been highly coordinated with the prime minister he and the president spoken a few times and so he's there to try to do his part he did today call on iran to play a constructive role in the region which is not a role that it has played to date. so we are going to continue our campaign of maximum economic pressure because we want iran to make better decisions and we have

seen i think very positive effects from our pressure campaign the saudi emirate he led military coalition fighting in yemen is promising to retaliate after a missile attack by who she rebels on a saudi airport the coalition's says the project described by who sees as a cruise missile hit the arrivals hole at about a point north of the yemeni border and reports. these pictures a said to show the damage where flights were disrupted for several hours saudi state t.v. says the airport was back up and running soon after the attack carried out by hooty rebels in neighboring yemen the head of the saudi immorality coalition that's fighting the rebels called it a terrorist attack on a civilian target which could be considered a war crime the whole thing is are targeting civilians on purpose on the blindly they want to put to. a player a week of the player

a dirty player in the region because you know targeting civilian targets is very bad. but the who these insist they have the right to defend themselves saying by launched a cruise missile after years of bombings by the coalition and an air and sea blockade there tempted aid access. we've identified 300 enemy strategic targets every day we have a goal and we will not rush to bomb all the targets today we carried out how threat and promise. the hoose they say they hit and disable the airports taua the stepped up misawa and drawing attacks across the border in recent weeks and have made advances on strategic locations inside saudi arabia they can target easily a lot of headquarters you know airports important bases military bases so

basically that is a changing dynamic of the this kind of growing war in yemen saudi arabia has been at war with the he's in yemen since 2015 the kingdom accuses iran of arming the rebels which iran denies the u.s. says the attack is another attempt by tehran to destabilize the region these provocative actions mark a new evolution in the threat around poses to the region to our partners and to our own national security. the conflicts already caused the deaths of tens of thousands of people the u.n. spokesman says he's deeply concerned we urge all parties to prevent any further such further incidents which risk escalating the current situation pose a serious threat to the national and regional security and undermine the un led political process. but the saudis are already promising stern action with the who he is reporting bombing in civilian areas and except run al-jazeera. bipartisan efforts are being made in the u.s.

house of representatives and the senate talking as a vote to block arms sales to saudi arabia last month the government declared a national security emergency citing growing threats from iran to justify an $8000000000.00 sale from washington alan fischer reports. very very early on donald trump has been keen to flaunt his big arms deal with saudi arabia but his reports emerged of u.s. made weapons being used by the saudi military in attacks on civilians in yemen members of congress expressed their concern and alarm and it looked as if any seals would run into serious opposition and could be blocked so the state department declared it an emergency and authorized the sales anyway and a congressional hearing one of my top lieutenants insisted an increased threat from iran will justify the decision by providing a deterrent against hostile actions this transfer lowers the risk of a broader conflict among the weapons approved for sale precision guided missiles like those used in the attack on

a school bus in yemen in august last year more than 40 children were killed so the planes fired american bombs one congressman claimed that seal wasn't about defense against regional rivals the vast majority arms the administration wants to sell with respect to this transaction are offensive weapons correct. it's not limited that there's a statement they didn't say limits at the vast majority are offensive weapon there are offensive weapons there are sustainment package but that aspect you already are offensive isn't that correct sir a number of our offensive house republicans were measured in their response to the decision to sidestep congress but stopped short of criticizing the president for pushing through the seals but one democrat wanted to know how big a rule his advisor and son in law try to had played in the sales was he involved not in the emergency declaration it's very much i am certain daily and the question was that a tough question and it's not this i understand the in charge out of like middle
