british parliament shutting down for 5 weeks when the u.k. is going through the biggest political crisis since world war 2 is anyone's guess it's most certainly less than popular among the opposition and peace on the speaker of the house of commons this is not however a normal part of geisha it is not difficult it is not standard it's one of the longest for decades and it represents not just in the minds of many colleagues but huge numbers of people outside and active executives. as conservatives file doubts they were heckles by opposition m.p.'s who refused to leave they tried to stop the speak up from leaving and then signed protest songs in the chamber. to demonstrate only too clearly the collapse of traditional politics here government ministers of offered

no explanation of the deal they are seeking if there is such a deal less aching let alone any work type proposals presented to parliament scrutiny no wonder they are so keen to baroque so early to avoid any scrutiny of doing the right $293.00 but the left $46.00 johnson had lost his 6 votes in 6 days even fewer and p's casting their ballots for a sober election but had done with. he tried it the 1st time and so while the opposition accused him of cowardice for suspending parliament he accused them of the same thing called the right on mobile germans cronies together with those other opposition parties have been trying to disguise their proposed risk cowardice by coming up with ever more rangers excuses for joining you know an election until the

end of october or perhaps november when hell freezes over. in media the delay and procrastination that has become the hallmarks of the opposition before parliament was put into this induced coma the opposition was able to force boris johnson in civil corner he is now going to have to seek some sort of compromise with the european union if the u.k. is to leave the block by the end of october as he insists must happen but that in turn will infuriate the most pro breck's it right wing of the party and will inevitably cost them seats whenever the national election happens with his cabinet holding its regular meeting these calculations will all be in play rumors abound of the potential for more resignations from the ruling party as johnson's many critics say his grip over bricks it becomes ever weaker last joins us live now from lot

from london say we are law and the 1st day after the suspension of parliament in those extraordinary scenes monday night in the house of commons what have the prime minister and the leader of the opposition been up to today. yes after all that last night it's really very quiet to be honest today but behind the scenes all sorts of things going on bush and his cabinet meeting refused to say to his ministers what his plans were fabrics it's a suspect partly because doesn't actually know himself and doesn't have to say anyway for several weeks now but he said they wanted to concentrate on their awesome show jewel which is more ready money for the police and schools and hospitals and all these things that you expect them to campaign around in a national election and exactly the same time jeremy called in the main opposition leader gave a speech to trade unionists in which he said that he wanted to rebalance the economy take money away from the rich it was the or even set up a ministry for workers' rights to that end and so all this positioning is now going on and will carry on through the party conference season for several weeks in the

expectation that they will have to be an election either in the venda or december you could obviously very well make the point that's not of these parts actually has to leave the european union at all to do any of the things that they want to do in terms of this domestic policy agenda is really any question of being able to pay for rates and to that point the government says it's still not prepared with even though it's legally bound to now because it lost the vote on it to publish all its secret papers on what it intends to do and what the outputs would be if there was no deal and all the opposition fears of economic collapse which obviously in turn could jeopardize all those all those spending promises they say they want to make. a life 1st there in london. hong kong protesters have used a football match against iran to highlight their cause demonstrators gathered outside the venue of a world cup qualifier and sang a protest song over china's national anthem iran had requested the game moved to
