9:12 am
saying an extension would be a mistake all that it has now from andrew symonds in westminster the u.k. is deep into brics it uncertainty once more with the prime minister again being accused of breaking the law and boris johnson's government readying itself for another push to get parliamentary approval for a new withdrawal deal conservative government ministers believe they have enough support to win a meaningful vote on the new deal as early as monday we're going to leave with a 31st we have the means and the ability to do so are you think actually the mood in the country is clear and the prime minister's determination is absolute michael gove's is the minister responsible for no deal breaks it preparations and he says he's triggering operation yellow the contingency plan he says the reason is there's no guarantee the european council will approve an extension and that heightens the risk of a no deal breaks it this appears to be
9:13 am
a means of putting more pressure on him to back the deal in parliament. one m.p. who is backing the deal is the man who caused the major setback for boris johnson by coming up with the amendment i thought in august that he wasn't being serious about getting a deal that's was one of the reasons why we put the banner in place it was just to make sure that if we got to 31st all day we can go to deal we would be safe and not crash out of part of it was to give him an incentive to get a deal that i think worked i think he is now got his deal and now for those of us for whom that was a motivation we need to back that deal boris johnson isn't budging over his refusal to accept breck's it deadline extension his letter requesting one was judy sent to e.u. council president donald tusk but unsigned and he effectively disowned it with a signed follow up letter setting out why there shouldn't be another extension of the main opposition labor party says johnson's breaking the law you may well be in

9:21 am
what's next for the cattle on people in spain pro independence supporters are outraged at the jailing of separatist leaders following the latest mass march and violent protests and government leaders in madrid are dismissing catalan calls for talks what are the chances for a political solution this is inside story. hello and welcome to the program i'm dead it's 2 years since catalonia tried and failed
9:22 am
to break away from spain but the campaign for independence hasn't died down the jailing of separatist leaders this week reignited the debate sparking a general strike and a mass march from all over catalonia to barcelona violent protests in the regional capital have raised questions about the reaction from spain's government in madrid specially before next month's national election the region's pro independence leader kim told us has called for unconditional talks with the spanish government but the acting prime minister petra sanchez has dismissed the calls saying must 1st unequivocally condemn the on rests. yeah i'm with the joe thing go d.s. in as i said earlier it's been 5 days and we still haven't heard kudlow and regional president 2 are firmly condemning the violence the same for members of his cabinet and other regional institutions nobody understands that they talk and talk for many minutes at a time without rejecting the by those who are expressing their solidarity towards
9:23 am
the members of the security forces they must choose the way of the democratic institutions because there is no other way when the catalan president's call for talks came 2 days officers suggesting a new independence referendum should be held within 2 years can torah has called for calm but also said protesters won't shy away from their separatist cause not offensive as that it's not that said experts defense of rights and freedoms must always be expressed peacefully we ask of everyone violence has never been and never will be our flag across catalonia like i was at that is that it's not the cause of rights and freedoms is unstoppable we will go as far as the catalans want to go use them. for months we have asked the spanish prime minister to set a day and an hour to sit around the negotiating table unconditionally to speak and to talk well despite much of the focus being on the pro independence marchers there are not the only ones campaigning opposition rallies have also been held in
9:24 am
catalonia i would many calling for a unified spain charlie angela has more from barcelona. but now it is for you me and this rally in barcelona and these people of comedy from throughout the region consider themselves proudly casting in or out of the spanish and they head to condemn the protests that we've seen in the last few days people here believe passionately in the unity of spain and that is a view that is held by 48 percent of cast noonan's according to the latest poll that was held in july and that's most of the 44 percent of capacity and who believe that independence is the way forward both sides are looking to that politicians for a way out of this crisis you know the castle and president came to or has also said to government to sit down and gauge and look find a way out of this crisis but so far the acting prime minister had a sentence has rejected those pulls the talks he says toure must 1st come out and condemn the violence that we mostly saw on friday when protesters were cutting
9:25 am
police with rocks and stones and setting fire to bins throughout the city so it seems that spain finds itself at an impasse just as another general election approaches charlie and the inside story well what's led to the latest protest so the independence question has divided catalonia for decades many believe the region strong identity culture and economy are good reasons for political separation from spain other catalogs don't want change an independence referendum 2 years ago was held in defiance of government leaders in madrid who said the vote violated spain's constitution voter turnout was low but the majority did folks yes for separation the cattle on parliament in barcelona quickly declared independence spain's government retaliated taking direct control of the region until the election of a new government the leaders of the independence movement were charged with sedition and arrested then given jail sentences of up to 13 years on monday.
9:26 am
let's bring in our panel to discuss all of this joining us from marcello via skype is one day he's a pro unionist and member of the cattle and business association in madrid via skype us what is a representative of the cattle on national assembly and finally also via skype from barcelona one of the biggest ted wells he's an associate professor of political science at the university of atlanta welcome to all of you to this edition of inside story thanks very much for joining us a one of a day our spain's government and the i think prime minister sanchez as your you've been hearing has dismissed the calls from catalonia as president for talks saying that he must 1st unequivocal condemn the unrest but surely there needs to be a way to address the grievances so if there is no political dialogue what happens then well enough to be hell. for them is
9:27 am
where you have spread your aid your yet if you get out qualifying when you read the rollout of those ideas for work you don't get that qualified you need to keep negotiating you need to keep trying to convince the other to vote your your your objective and this is you know just use the space site. many issues but the real dialogue the real that is going to have. facts in the parliament so you think of the acting prime minister is correct when he dismisses calls for a dialogue at this point. at this point well no i mean that theoretically as they said it's a good thing if it's done in the right frame in the right frame of rule of law and in the right scenario in the run up we know it's in the parliament to have to cut
9:28 am
outside the parliament i think it's too tired because especially when there is instability and violence on the streets so 1st of all what gore has to do it mr gore has to do is it's called then electrically the violence on the streets stop the riots stop the the calcium in barcelona and one everything's to start a license to reopen the parliament officially and try to score to discuss their ideas in the parliament trying to convince all ringback in my maturity often peace it qualify me unity to move his ideas forward to do this outside the rule of law and the only brief instability and violence. to well do you agree with that assessment that dialogue can only be done in parliament and not the direction it should go in. yes i completely agree with my colleague adam a question with the when if this is clear why it is not possible to to reach to the scenario and in this sense i think it's very important to understand to what to
9:29 am
what extent political leadership imagery and particularly barcelona are very weakened in recent times. because not only because we are in a literal can be so political leaders are very attentive to their electorate and they are taking care of all their decisions trying not to. lose some of the voters taking the risk of the seasons but with a more broad perspective. the program in catalonia and particularly the evolution in the last 2 years. shows. the problem of having a baby weak leadership on the cousin site because the more important the more prominent leaders are in jail and it seems they are going to be for a few more time and this is not only for early period and long suspicion is tight
9:30 am
but as they are all they dissent this is also. and making dis movement more difficult to control because the more the leaders are not there in order to bake relate to personalize pragmatic issues in the same in the same time in missouri we have had for more than 6 months a caretaker government that was issued from a knock on to this vote one year and a half ago and we have have we have been. ruling the country with minority governments for 4 years we don't have to forget that in november we will have the 4th election in 4 years so we've made an already government with a body divided party. both sides and with some of the leaders of this issue aside e.j. just very hard to see how both sides can take can engage
9:31 am
in pragmatic burghley in order to find an exit to to this problem ok here is an important point that many important points in fact one of which is on this upcoming spanish elections which we'll get to in a moment but 1st let me bring in our last suarez because. torah he did say that the violence does not reflect the peaceful nature of the independence movement but why do you think that he has not unequivocally condemn the unrest and the violence well to be honest he has condemned the violence many times against. self-defense from the profit protestors athlon side but let's not forget that the sentences for the couple of political prisoners which have already spent 2 years in jail are shameful spain has shown to the world to tell him to go if he comes 1st for democracy and since they were published on monday the
9:32 am
situation of police control in catalonia $579.00 when the police including the 8 journalists would in fact 4 people have lost an eye on police attacks 2 protesters are on life threatening condition right now there's been a 179 arrested including 21 activists who are preemptive jail most of them 18 or 19 so young teenagers a new generation look at a little bit and she was in right now it's a complete chaos ok so many options that caroline government is facing. well the atom government should try to leave and channel the process and basically try to find 1st peace and sure that there's an end to police violence 2nd. release of all political prisoners and free self-determination
9:33 am
a binding referendum in catalonia monitored by the european union one half a day are what's your take on what carla suarez just had to say. in the mystery. summary we'd like building into the realities. so we. know that they are in well you have acknowledged and now i think everyone who saw me so that it was nothing but. balance that this is very. last. minute. they have played they are. past it. and we have but surely you understand but surely you understand one surely understand that people are very angry particularly after the sentencing of the leaders. well. it's very clear that they're not political they are all sinners not well we have broken the law they
9:34 am
thought that they were above the law whatever they wanted me to look what about midnight but you know you knew. that they didn't mean you should the middle of what they're seeing segments about bombs and. what they. don't need and what. the right channels the right brain is like well a lot so you will not it's certainly what most people go onsite and look what just goes at once and that was it was the one that i'm most uncertain is well it is untouched and how do. you so this constant ok i wonder why i don't think i was there well i would be a coming spanish election which you were mentioning just a moment ago so how will the recent developments meaning these protests what impacts are they going to have on the election and will a new government be able to i don't want to say solve this problem but make some
9:35 am
headway and this issue yeah. i am not sure if this situation right now is going to have a strong impact as long as this you. will not evolve to a worse scenario because so far what we have seen is mostly but if you people are trying to express their anger it was it centers the same time we know that most of the actual leaders of the government maybe not the prime minister but most of peaceful community members are trying to tamp down the situation waited for the result of the of november i think that the general election week give us a more loose a similar scenario but probably with a stronger position for the 2 main astonished. parties the social democratic party and the conservative party and the situation and provably. the results of
9:36 am
the original election incredulous gridley will be hailed a favorite next year we hear if you were scenario a new fortunate in order to generalize. a pragmatic story which will not be in any case the start of school and probably not anyway there are referendum ashish still which is completely rejected by political elites and by an important part size of the country population carla suarez go ahead i see a shake your head go ahead i mean all the polls of the last 10 years have shown that around 8 percent of population want to self-determination referendum so we've just nonsense to say that but let me hang on let me interrupt here right there which polls are you referring to because the latest poll that we have that we have found here at al-jazeera is that it shows that the backing for the secession is in fact at its lowest level in 2 years with 48.3 percent of people against and now 44
9:37 am
percent in favor so there seems to be a drop why is that that's correct there's a 5050 between the procession come and that union is calm but there is a consensus across the aisle that the referendum is the solution isn't normally democracies in to solve complex questions but you have to ask yourself is spain really a democracy another issue that has caused a lot of anger is not only the sentence itself but that they can which it was published let's not forget that what happened on the mall the 14th of october which is exactly the same day that 19 for the 79 years old the spanish regime sentenced to death the battle of president. just the only democratically elected president to be marred by. but you got change misplaying. democracy into rhetorical integrity comes 1st and aim for the people to speak ok let's put that to one
9:38 am
a river day i mean what we're seeing happen unfold in the streets of barcelona catalonia is a calling into question the sort of quality and integrity of the spanish democracy with world remains. in. place that recognize our microfiber the union if they you is one of the main one of the full thing marcus in the wall this is the strength of the spanish democracy and understand of this wanted to look as it is to make sure that we fight against the people above those who are responsible politicians to want who wants to read that the rule of law who wants to who they think they're above the law and they think they can move forward with their ideas on safe this is frame of the rule of law this is the strength of the status of the spanish democracy and again the politicians in jail is that they are in jail not because of their ideas but because
9:39 am
of protection there are many people who just happen yet there you get bent and they are not in jail because they defend their ideas and they have not committed the actions that. i believe go and have supported that of course. we don't get so this is just sort of the spanish so that it can defend itself from people who wants to break the rule of law and the stability of the spend society how much do you think won the election campaign the upcoming election campaign and spain will be about or catalonia will feature in that election campaign. so all of this is going to have a huge impact because i mean also instability all the violence is affecting the whole state not only close the site but also the sponsors say who is certain is watching a life well apart from its territory it's in risk. of of of this integration and a result of that i think responsible politicians trying to install this this is regina
9:40 am
outside the law and obviously this is the every one little thing that the only about in spades everyone is worried about the situation and obviously people like that the luck also they do do have their blind see think that the you know when they cast a vote one rodrigo's the criticism by some is that the pro independence catalan government appeared to look like they're speaking for all catalans but as we were mentioning just a moment ago some poll so that the region is even the split between those that want independence and those that don't want independence would that be a correct assessment completely one of the achievements of the suspicion these movement doing distinctly is that most of the traditionally proc mattick nationalists the lipper e has now become actually suspicion east at or half a bunch of 2 suspicious positions and different but indeed b.n. we we steal follow their traditional part of the time politics divided between half
9:41 am
part of the population for a. nationalist or more so for government even suspicion and the other half side of the population should be different kinds of self-government agreements but always remain e.u. space and i think this is something that has not changed doing disappears and many people. not only that this is why probably a simple referring them a suspicion as he sometimes it is art. it's not exactly a solution so what we know is that we need people like you know the country since you are conflicts we need political leaders to get some stability and some. capacity to rule over this a little race in order to implicate them in pragmatic and constitutional agreements and this is why we still need this kind of political stability after the general
9:42 am
and the original election in order to try to sway a car less has the pro independence movement been weakened somewhat considering that there are still a large number of people who don't want independence in catalonia and we saw that in one of the demonstrations where our reporter went to. yeah well my report will have witnessed the difference in numbers in the most question that you need the most passionate today versus the march in the general strike on friday in which millions of gallons went and there are a lot but still you're completely right there's a split and but 2 democracies when there is a split. the york referendums so that's all we're asking nothing else not to my knowledge not in coastal majority let the people decide let's organize a referendum the union excitedly say that we should obey the law but how can your
9:43 am
