change people morgan to 0 for its owner. protests have continued in hong kong despite a kick in session from the government the city's chief executive finally agreed to fully withdraw a bill that would allow criminal suspects to be extradited to mainland china critics though say it's too little too late to holland reports from hong kong. a familiar scene just hours after hong kong's chief executive and now it's the withdrawal of an extradition bill that sparked a violent protest but the concession failed to peace protesters. c on thursday kerry faced the media to explain why it took so long to give in to the protesters demands and that she had beijing's full support that's true of the whole process the central people's stuff men took the position that they understood why we have to do it they they respected my view and they supported me all the way.
9:13 am
since june violent confrontations between police and the mostly young protesters have become an almost daily event against much opposition the government tried to push through the bill that would have allowed suspects in hong kong to face trial in mainland china i think she needs to. possible charges all the other demons and just a quick. action is she have done these you know list all of them do you know 3 months earlier in the office or have the other issues include voting rights since beijing appoints hong kong's leader through an election committee and more pressing for many in the city an investigation into police conduct during the months of protests as people go about their business here on where day the city's not convulsed with protest you could be forgiven for thinking that life in hong kong is going back to normal but there are constant reminders everywhere that this is a city on edge. hong kong operates under one country 2 systems. model enjoying
9:14 am
freedoms on thinkable in other parts of china but in recent years there has been an unprecedented interference from the central party in the city's affairs system many of the protesters feel the government puts beijing's interests ahead of their needs and they won the city's autonomy and their future is at stake we believe it is an attempt to say to us that of course it will not work we have seen 3 carry ons lies we have seen through the lies of this government and we will not back down even. a clear message that the end of the extradition this not mean and to the cities on the rest. hong kong. nonprofit organization amazon watch is holding protests around the world for what it's calling a global day of action for the amazon they're calling our president also narrowed to change policies which they say are harmful to the amazon rain forest a record number of fires continue to burn in brazil and neighboring countries well

9:16 am
a really given this departure raises questions about the prospects of this plan and any potential success in resolving the israeli palestinian conflict this is work that has been done in secret for months along with the president's son in law jared cushion or we do know one aspect of the plan has a large economic component raising some 50000000000 to help improve the lot of the palestinians but many people speculate the this plan is nothing short of dead on arrival given the fact that this administration from the beginning has taken a very adversarial stance with regard to the palestinian leaders and the palestinian leader for their part say that they will reject this plan as a result of the lack of consultation and the fact that they were not involved now we do know that in terms of this plan the white house saying that it will be released sometime after the israeli elections on september 17th we are on clear
9:17 am
whether or not jason green but will stay for that unveiling or if he will be gone if this plan is delayed yet again as it has been repeatedly already that does raise some questions about the fact that if the architect of the plan is not going to stick around how viable is it moving forward scientists in the scottish highlands think they may have the answer to one of nature's most enduring mysteries does the loch ness monster exists know what they have discovered a large amount of d.n.a. suggesting the law may have once been inhabited by giants. or on. plesiosaur known. there is absolutely no evidence of any rate tell you and sequences in the air samples so i think we can be fairly sure that there is probably not a giant scaly with tall swimming around and look nice now is it possible that what people are saying is a jaunty oh well maybe. we don't know if the you'll be united that we think

stories next. embrace what he called a do or die strategy but a leader boris johnson faces double defeat as parliament to reject his plans for bread and a snap election will he hang on to fight another day and what now for britain's plan to leave the e.u. this is inside story.
9:22 am
welcome to the program more than 3 years ago a majority of voters in the u.k. said they wanted to leave the e.u. but what followed has been a lot less clear british prime minister boris johnson failed to break the latest deadlock over bragg's it on wednesday m.p.'s voted down his attempts to trigger a snap election they also passed a bill blocking the possibility of a no deal exit from the e.u. johnson had said he was willing to consider that if no new withdrawal deal was agreed so where does that leave the braggs it process there's a lot to cover with our guest but 1st this report from under a semblance of london. another defeat for boris johnson already on the back foot with the rebellion and his party and the opposition taking over the parliamentary timetable the eyes of the right $327.00 knows the act 299. within minutes boris johnson was on his feet with his
9:23 am
plan for a snap elections i don't want an election the public don't want an election the country doesn't want to lection but this house has left no other option than getting the public decide who they want as prime minister and i commend this motion to the hide under the opposition bill that now has to be passed by parliament upper house johnson is forced to seek an extension of the brics it deadline that will move it to january scuppering his do or die plan for a no deal brix it if necessary on october 31st but labor the main opposition party isn't ready to give support to johnson's call for an election which needs a 2 thirds majority that the also the election to die is a bit like the offer of an apple to snow white in the working queen because what he's offering is not an apple or even election but the poison of
9:24 am
a no deal. so mr speaker i repeat i repeat what i said last night last night let this bill pass and gain royal assent then we will back at election so we do not crash out with a no deal exit from the european union. and surprisingly rude labor abstaining johnson's attempt to get an immediate election didn't pass. i have in the house well we aware. that the nation has no rights of. the majority or quad on the fixed parliaments fact this is about defending our democracy ahead of the latest political drama demonstrators in parliament square denounce boris johnson's actions accusing him of engineering a no deal grex it by claiming they're all still chances of
9:25 am
a deal when there's no progress whatsoever boris johnson may have only been in power for 6 weeks but he doesn't have control right now nevertheless you've only got to listen to the demonstrators to realize the central issue is about trust and the opposition want to be absolutely sure there's a couple bottom guarantee the card play any tricks if there is an election the 2nd largest opposition party is also against an immediate election people don't trust him when he says he really wants a deal we all suspect that he wants a new deal and we also want to make sure that he's not able to use his proxy of powers as the prime minister to create some tricks and allow the country to crush out another day of unprecedented moves within parliament and with it still uncertainty about what the people of the united kingdom might expect from its political leadership andrew symonds al-jazeera westminster.
9:26 am
let's bring in our panel joining us from london is alex deane managing director and head of public affairs u.k. f.t. i consulting and former chief of staff to david cameron from brussels the recent brunner policy analyst of the european policy center and again from london he said bennett briggs is commissioning editor of the telegraph welcome to you all to the program alex boris johnson was widely seen as someone who could accomplish what has or what eluded his predecessor. but after the series of setbacks he's suffered over the last few days what are the options left for him well plainly this is sub optimal it's not what boris wanted to happen by any means you are right but he can still seek either to force an election and knows no reason he can't bring
9:27 am
a bill for a general election back down to the fixed term parliaments that seeking the 2 thirds majority he didn't get last time or you could pass a one line bill saying notwithstanding the provisions of the fixed parliament act let's have an election anyway and on that sort of vote you don't need require authority of one recent events in parliament of showing he may not get that to you but let me make the point there is an ultimate irony that will be apparent to many of your views if they know jeremy corbyn the leader of our opposition party and one thing is that for the last 2 years he's been calling for an election and now finally when the government office in one he says no. the recent when the e.u. says the u.k. into into this sort of uncharted political territory what is the general sentiment among the key players of the of the. i think the general sentiment among the key players in the e.u. at the moment is. this may and probably also
9:28 am
a little bit of frustration dismay because i thing because it is clear that. u.k. parliament knows what it doesn't want it doesn't want to know to fix it but it does a lot less clear what it what it wants instead and what that can find a positive solution to the fact that outcome and what an orderly withdrawal can be insured and i think that's also a bit of frustration at the way that to the u.k. is using the current extension of our ticket to toe bathetic prost because. after the u.k. was offered this extension basically the hope of the dust was that the u.k. would use this extension why study to come to some sort of positive. conclusion but instead it looks i think from the u.s. press spec to fly. basically this time is largely wasted on power games
9:29 am
is it fair to say at this particular moment that. the support of the majority is a turn for mr johnson. well clearly we saw this week that labor does not want to give the nuff support to provide that 2 thirds target be tried nuff numbers for it to be hit and why is that simply because jeremy corwin now wants to ensure that this no deal law passes into the house of lords and that's very much on the u.k. statute books and this is because it a fact he is realizing that in finding all too hard to resist the temptation to play with the conservatives like a cat might play with a dead mouse swatting it around and to what head that alex is saying yes the jeremy corbin is the man who's meant to be the country's alternative prime minister has been begging asking for the election and clearly he's just paranoid that boris
9:30 am
johnson will turn around on winning labor's approval and say very good thank you for proving us went out of the pick a election day 4 after october the 1st was that no directed by default instantly brecht it's in the bag so it's a level of distrust clearly of the labor side which is regrettable. alex when you see the states and i would add what please go ahead go ahead yeah i was just simply going to say there is one other possibility i don't disagree with a sort of tall of course that he's right that's the explanation labor has given for not wanting an election there might be one more found in opinion polling which suggests that the conservative party is now some 10 points ahead it may be that jeremy corbyn having screamed for an election for a beauty is now facing the realistic prospect of having one realizes he might lose it and therefore doesn't want to have it i hate to sound venal but that might be the more realistic explanation alex a could be also that carbon is trying to be also as a posthumous thick as mr johnson he knows that going to the polls 2 weeks before
9:31 am
the deadline the deadline could give johnson some leverage but that if they could further yes freeze it he won't have that level as in the general sentiment among the people in the u.k. would further change after the 30 the 1st of october that could deny him. a comfortable lead in the election. that's i think that's fair and one thing we haven't mentioned is that perhaps the most vibrant force in british politics right now that has really changed things like them or not is the brics it party with some 20 plus percent support in the polls for a general election right now boris would think to himself if we have an election my position on brics it is very clear i will get most of the support of people who are currently inclined otherwise to vote for the brics policy but if we fail once again on the 3rd time to leave the e.u. after a stated date that has been given by our prime minister then perhaps support for the brics policy not only returns to that 20 percent but source beyond it that's
9:32 am
got to be the fear for the conservative party right now the reason the situation is fast moving in the u.k. is most likely we're going to see an extension of the e.u. deadline do you think that the europeans would be receptive to any demands by the by by the british government over the coming days. one of costs not a foregone conclusion because basically you would need unanimous approval in the o.p.m. council to get an extension so even a single country could feed to it how about i do think that this is quite unlikely for 2 reasons fost because i think you need us to not want to be seen. trade as being the one step triggered and or defect so that would have very severe consequences both political both politically and economically for many member states especially island and 2nd. it looks like a general election is an effort to move sooner or later the year i think the only
9:33 am
question is when it takes place and i think that might be another reason for that you to grant the u.k. an extension because a general election. brings with it the possibility of political change and even if the conservatives are leading of the poets in the polls at the moment the state of the possibility that. it's a general election will change the composition of parliament and therefore make an autumn the withdrawal more likely and i think for those 2 reasons that you i think would be quite i'm likely to refuse an extension. so what's interesting the tax exposed by both keep parties in the u.k. now the labor seems to be no wing 1st of all to aim for the top priority which is to freeze any attempt by johnson to go for a deal for for a break that with or without a deal then they are willing to negotiate another agreement about the election why is the labor walking down that particular path. i think because
9:34 am
they fear that if you have an evil of october 31st election that boris johnson would be able to build unstoppable momentum because he could pose as mr bracks it the man who brought everyone or exit at the helm of the vote leave referendum bus and he could appeal as alex was brought up to tory voters to relievers especially that party voters and also try and keep tory remain as who are less keen on bracks on board by saying if you don't vote for me you have that crypto marxist jeremy corbin walking into downing street who by the way let's remember is so unpopular in parliament. the rival parties could not agree on him as an alternative prime minister he is so unpopular among the general public a recent poll found that actually more people prefer the liberal democrat leader joe swenson as an alternative prime minister to jeremy corbin and incidentally the
9:35 am
actual prime minister abbas johnson is leagues ahead of both of them at 45 percent compared to about 20 percent and so given this you know the jobs would have a very compelling campaign to fight if he was doing on the eve of brecht's it in the meantime of course if labor managed to delay bracks it string it out perhaps get this law passed and then sit there making sure that no elections approved yet they could run down the clock wait till middle of october see boris johnson shout and scream as he tries to do everything he can maybe even resign and then maybe not to avoid having to ask so that they've accepted that point his singular a man october 31st would shatter uphill struggle as an election campaign to fight at that point a late or but later exit november election so be very much labor's to win at that point alex but don't you see that mr johnson by his move is further undermining the conservative party look at the statements made yesterday the reactions from
9:36 am
philip herman cain clarke the rebels you get the impression that the conservative party is about to crumble. no i don't have that sense actually of course the people you are naming are no longer conservative m.p.'s they're still in the house but they don't take the what we call the whip they don't take the discipline of the conservative party anymore and they all therefore unable to stand as members of parliament for the conservative party again they will be able to stand of course for any other party or indeed as independents but just not for the party that got them elected last time this strengthens boris johnson's hand in any potential election because in their seats which are overwhelmingly very safe conservative seats there will be new conservative candidates chosen and those candidates will be far more likely to support boris johnson than those who've already demonstrated that they absolutely won't that is to say they didn't just vote against their tory policy they voted for a government to be denied the leaves of power for the control of the house of
9:37 am
commons to be passed in state to the opposition on the explicit basis that they would then give that power to the european union either for an extension or if we can agree an extension take whatever extension the e.u. gives us this is the worst possible signal for parliament to send to the e.u. why would the e.u. negotiate with us at in any meaningful way if they know that we're just going to have extension after extension and effectively stay in so no i think it strengthens boris's hand to have new m.p.'s in those seats the reason why is the e.u. saying that it will not bend to any of the demands made by the johnson of the over there was given to minister to some may still stands all the table that could be the best way out to an orderly exit from the e.u. . was the main point of contention it's the back some fi the i would fought on and the sought of come said i mean to problem for that you as we'd is out the sort of concessions stocks wreck city aswan than to and they include pag limiting the back stalled who automata fee allowing do you kate with
9:38 am
crawl film it's unilaterally the problem is stop from the e.u. suspect this giving into those concessions would basically on the mind the basic functioning off a box oh because and intros policies office time limited it's north an insurance policy from that youth perspective and that's why it since they cannot gates into those stem ons what they you i think could do i and is willing to do would be to considine always tanishq has a way nj memes to the boxed up if they are via boat and if they for his fitted the same objectives aft the box to alpha and the problem is that it doesn't rate it looked like any a are trying to defy all range ments has been phones and time he holland so that's fundamentally it's a problem and and when we hunted out the back stove issue it's not just the ball would the board on what having a bought on no bought on the island if island it's really an ai it really is how
9:39 am
just very very fundamental if you lose all of the you will like so that out at he for example and because it's really about the question where that you member state support a small of member state if it's fide to intrust sof sweat tenant against the comic entrusts all of a soon to be thoughts country and if your some the a fries it and those togs then it becomes an entirely different issue and it's i think becomes a much and even of i'm men must say it's a thing and can done see a bit more is a new why it's so important as a stand behind our island because they might you need you so modality at some put in the future but to a knave wouldn't once the member states to abandon them so i think that's really why that you can i see your point given to the facts appears to mont on the backstop say was quite interesting when boris johnson was basically saying that he would use his negotiating skill to be able to change the u.s.
9:40 am
position when it comes to the northern ireland border do you think that the backstop ill turn it into something still possible against the backdrop of the drama that is unfolding in the u.k. oh it's still possible but obviously the e.u. has to genuinely believe it is deliverable in westminster the changes that the boris johnson would seek because really what's governing all this is the parliamentary reform a ticket in the house of commons in that just about 3 and may for a 2nd when she tried to get a deal done to change the backstop and everything around it about 3 times now she was had to deal rejected and so e.u. leaders tried every time to change it just enough rejected again and now we see that clearly boris johnson is struggling to get anything through parliament and then peas are running rampant able to tie his hands on no deal and so it's no wonder your leaders aren't really taking the goetia seriously because then i think nothing would pass this parliament especially when some euro skeptics say in the
9:41 am
same breath that even if the backstop was taken out they would still want more. seem to to be saying basically that you don't think that this is something which is going to further undermine but it's just on the culture this is something which is going to consolidate his power base there is the god of if he decides to go or if we have an election he will definitely have to be very aggressive to be able to bite into the boa base of the briggs it party but by doing that don't you think that he could just further undermine the remaining within the conservative party itself. there is a balance to be struck you're right but i think boris is a rebel enough to draw away much of the strength of the bricks at parties electoral appeal at least in the present time before the 31st of october he's demonstrated he's serious about bret's it and doesn't want to take no deal off the table i really see british politics is like this the divide on the broadly speaking right
9:42 am
between the tory party in the brics it party is a smaller one that is to say the tory party is done well to take much more of that vote in the current environment than the divide on the left between the labor party in the liberal democrats where whatever you think of the lib dems have a crystal clear position on breaks it they don't want it and the labor party has been to and fro on what they think about this and where they are in our membership of the european union in that circumstance i think that boris does very well at an election with a more broadly unified right and a more generally divided left and that's why he feels so positive about the prospect of an election what. kind of impact is this political drama in the u.k. having on the e.u. leadership because sometimes you get the impression he's trying to stay away and comment only when he's suddenly about one of the key contentious issues between the u.k. and the e.u. . yeah i mean you have to way to try to stay out
9:43 am
of the oil u.k. domestic political drama basically since even since before the west. it didn't get too involved in the referendum campaign and even in the past 3 years it has really tried to stay our i'm not sure that the current political drama really have to bake off an effect on that you would need us because basically i think what you need as the main question is can there be an orderly withdrawal off the u.k. and if so when canada and all of this drama at the moment we're not really getting closer to a visit lucian off the fundamental question are on facts it is there going to be again no idea or it's going to it's article 50 going to be revoked and that is the fundamental decision that needs to be made and at the moment all this political drama i think is just so it's basically just kicking the can from around the world . i think one of the things that many people would say agree about when it comes to
9:44 am
the u.k. of this particular moment is absolutely no clarity about the future just give you an example the lived for example of for anything that would stop the brig's that this interview would say that this is going to further give scotland. the right to go for independence the labor we know the dithering when it comes to how to move forward the conservatives seem to be divided than. is britain suddenly or is it because of the 2016 choice intrigue an unprecedented political stage. well look the reason why it seems that our political class are being so inept about this is because the government doesn't have the numbers to get anything through this parliament and the same time you have an opposition in the labor party who seem to be increasingly pandering to remain as never really accepting a deal and some labor m.p.'s for example a good few dozen who rejected the original deal several times and are now turning
9:45 am
around having found that they will turn to await them are even with us sort of breaks it over no deal bricks it or just trying again maybe selling out their voters so who actually voted leave me mother liberal democrats then you know that at least they have some sincerity of just hating bricks it never liking it in the same way the s.n.p. do as well and so they just they they can't really seem to decide whatever they want at all even with the general election you have jeremy corbyn in one breath saying our prime minister is a dictator and that his of followers feel that a coup has taken place thanks doris johnson but no they they don't want to go back to the people just yet because that would be just improper the other things have to happen so it's no wonder then bar johnson is so desperately keen for a new parliament thank you thank you very much indeed it will be really interesting to see how one whether mr jones or will be able to deliver on his promise to cross out of the e.u. with or without a deal alex dean laurie sobran or a subeditor thank you very much indeed for your contribution to the program and

a already thinking of already. then light sounds off the remark aimed at the labor opposition leader i think. thank you all very much but it's time to move on and i thought i was writing the passive story i think apart there's nothing funny about the latest resignation and the prime minister's brother joe johnson quitting as junee a business minister he tweeted in recent weeks i've been told between family loyalty and the national interest it's an unresolvable tension and time for others to take on my roles like the prime minister was asked about his brother's departure. brother come back you why should anyone else. doesn't agree with me about the european union because it's a it's an issue that divides families and divides everybody and i think what joe would agree is that we need to get on and sort this thing out so what next all
