strike the feeling after boris johnson said that he would try to suspend parliament for several weeks now his argument is that it's a noble procedure to get ready for a queen's speech before laying out his legislative program the people here say it's a clear power grab trying to stop all of that from doing its job and to play to his bricks policies and avoiding a no deal price it now some of the organizers here are affiliated to the opposition labor party and senior labor figures are said it's clear what boris johnson is really base what is insured by the mechanism that is used and the dates that he's chosen is that it is almost impossible almost impossible to get legislation which would bind the government into asking for an extension but you ask why i don't trust and the reason i don't trust this man is because just recently he lied about whether he wanted to probe parliament he said he did. believe in such procedures he

since mass immigration story we had one question is the thing we call chores and the problem is that the culture of that these. guys should say it's immigrating to us is or is not comfortable with european culture this is not like budapest. triumphal march. dreams of conquest and love me try. this is very very uneventful glide towards the precipice without resistance we are past the danger has already happened. it was then just 10 years ago. now this is it. makes stories generate fountains of headlines it seems that much the media is still struggling with how to deal with it with different angles
11:48 am
from different perspectives and you hold a lawyer to separate the spin from the facts not. the misinformation from the journalism how careful must you your words but some tough stuff has to be said so some critics have to be made the listening post on al-jazeera. protesters who are all petrol bombs at police who were hit back with blue dyed water and the tang of the during the latest chaotic scenes in hong kong. irish out here this is al jazeera la. coming up. on china are about to take effect ball look at who's hurting on both sides of the trade war.
11:49 am
in afghanistan. major attack. more than 20. months of protests some demonstrators petrol bombs at police retaliated with tear gas and water cannons. riot officers also stormed. people they describe as radical protests are planned later. first this report. this has become a weekend ritual in parts of hong kong street battles breaking out between anti-government protest is and police. but this was one of the most intense rounds
11:50 am
of violence since the protests began almost 3 months ago. the day had started peacefully the police rejected an application from organizers to hold a rally additionally it was just small religious and student groups that defied the ban we need to pay for sold. for. the they also have the same idea but the numbers grew throughout the day as people paralyzed some of the city's busiest roads. by doing so they risked a wrist but there was safety in numbers. cries of stand with hong kong and left them mock as they went. but it was inevitable that this day would develop like so many others have been hong kong recently. the violence started when some people stopped at the offices of the government which adjoins hong kong tolman's this is a building that they stormed back on the 1st of july so clearly once they came to
11:51 am
this building the police were in no mood to muck around no mood to allow them to stay here and throw things at the building so that to get started fairly quickly. the protest does have developed a relatively new and dangerous tactic of throwing petrol bombs along with bricks and other objects on the other side police fired tear gas and deployed water cannons this time laced with dye to try to mock those who had broken the law eventually those demonstrating moved on but the fight wasn't over. the protesters have retreated from the area around the legislative council conflicts but not very far coming to a place close to the headquarters of the hong kong police of bollocks this road this intersection here and sit fire to their barricade taking things to a new level directions were designed to send a clear message to the police and the government far from being afraid they are intensifying the campaign and in doing so the city's crisis is worsening wayne hay
11:52 am
al jazeera hong kong. and jim brown joins us live from hong kong a journal what does it appear that the strategy is busy for for the chief executive kerry lamb and dealing with the protests which clearly are not letting up. well to be honest rachelle i don't think she has a strategy right now last week she hinted that the hong kong government might be prepared to invoke emergency powers the last jews in the city in 1967 during the anti colonial protests when more than 5000 people were actually arrest abrupt about a 1000 arrests so far during this round of protests she has i think really given a firm sort of indication i say that these powers might be selectively used for instance she would bring in power to prevent prevent professors wearing face masks
11:53 am
that it would prevent profess to you know gathering to protest at all but we haven't got to that stage yet today the protesters are planning to once more target hong kong's international airport which of course was targeted a couple of weeks ago which led to hundreds of flights being canceled leading to a lot of destruction for travelers coming into hong kong and getting out of hong kong i think the plan is to carry out what's known as a stress test and that's this means that the protesters will try to somehow either block the main expressway leading to hong kong airport all to sort of try to fill buses or train carriages to sort of crowd them out with protesters but i think you know that's a strategy that's almost certainly going to lead to you know the possibility of more confrontation with the police because we are seeing the police starting to harden their tactics now and i think they're starting to go after people they suspect of wanting to carry out a protest so i think we're seeing the police now being
11:54 am
a lot more kind of proactive and you know the violence we saw last night was some of the worst violence we've seen richelle during the past 13 weeks particularly on the hong kong subway system when the police stormed into a carriage and started clubbing passengers and we don't know whether all those passengers were in fact protesters so yes the violence is increasing on both sides so considering that things don't seem to be escalating what is the latest word out of beijing. well overnight not surprisingly given just how serious the violence was on saturday night because one of the new tactics of the protesters is to set fire to barricades and there were multiple fires across hong kong. the official news agency has warned that hong kong once more is reaching a very critical stage and has said that hong kong is in danger of becoming a war zone as to what beijing does next well i think it's possible and this is
11:55 am
a personal view that the leadership has taken the decision that perhaps it's now too late to send in the pier late today to send in paramilitary police because in a few weeks' time you know president xi jinping will be overseeing the most important event the most important celebration this year which is the 70th anniversary of the founding of the people's republic of china i think they've decided that they'd rather live with what they know at the moment which is you know continuing protests every weekend rather than have you know a picture of chinese troops you know marching in patrolling in the center of hong kong ok entering brown with the latest from hong kong thank you adrian. tensions between china and the us keep escalating as a new round of tariffs on both countries' exports will come into effect in a few hours china says it won't back down has raised import taxes on 75000000000 dollars worth of american goods after increased duties on $300000000000.00 of
11:56 am
chinese goods as more from beijing. shoppers come to beijing sent you and lee market to buy all kinds of imported foods including american greg cherries but it's fast becoming a casualty of china's trade with the u.s. tariffs have already gone up twice pushing the price of a killer to around $25.00 and from to 10 for the 1st tariffs on u.s. cherries will be raised from 50 to 60 percent then it is looking for cheaper alternatives to what the chinese fruits are very good the price is much cheaper than american products the quality is also very good so more and more people are choosing local foods higher prices are the only reason shoppers are considering buying less from the u.s. . for me being patriotic is something more important for me to consider than the price we are trainees and we are all affected that by the trying to us treat war cherries may be the most popular american product at this market but it's not the only for it that will receive high it's harris new jerseys will also apply to
11:57 am
things like american palms graves and apples $75000000000.00 worth of u.s. goods will see tariffs of between 5 and 10 percent china will also reinstate import taxes of 25 percent and u.s. cars in december the hikes of the chinese government's response to the trumpet ministrations voters trade will send over 10 percent tariffs on $300000000000.00 worth of chinese goods also coming into effect in september and december analysts say the u.s. president has been a confusing and unreliable negotiating partner are very the president trumps remarks serious recorder is always changing here are some very the stick figure. in order to push through let's talk must give you. a much bigger stick china's comus ministry says it doesn't want to escalate tensions and is open to more talks with the u.s. but it's when we began underestimating china's willingness to dig its heels in for
11:58 am
the long fight if you fight back if you talk let's talk but we have principles we will never yield principles by weakening its currency and developing new trade partnerships china is taking steps to ensure its economy is less vulnerable to any new moves by trump and to trade. and as demand for things like the u.s. cherry slower china is finding cheaper alternatives from countries such as pakistan and chile are ripe for the picking katrina you al-jazeera beaching. be a special negotiator on afghanistan reconciliation says is close to making a deal with the taliban presented as it has just wrapped up the latest round of talks with the group in doha will now heads to kabul for consultations with afghanistan's government it's the 9th round of negotiations brokered by the u.s. to try to end 18 years of war and ultimately bring american troops home. at the

12:00 pm
the troops back home heading to kabul to have a negotiation with the of conduct of the taliban of essential a threat you know refused to recognize the existence of the afghan government and for me prince police speaking this was the whole. policy and where we were setting up a government that recognizes a lot of the principles that what the u.s. to for and i think that's where some of the weak pressure points lie and that's where the strong point for the taliban lie i think you know part of word we the united states would want is not an attack from the air that that's traced back to the consul that. an attack on the u.s. or its allies that can be traced.
