it's ability one of the any. and disability. 0. i just beamed to see i don't see the queen earlier on and she agreed to dissolve parliament election. campaign for an election that could resolve the breaks that controversy is up and running. again i'm adrian finighan this is al jazeera live 2 major victories for us democrats of you it is bad news for donald trump's chances of winning a 2nd term in office. the u.k.

parliament has been officially dissolved by the queen signaling the beginning of the campaign for an election that could help to bring an end to the question of when and if britain leaves the european union from minister boris johnson met with the queen at buckingham palace ahead of his 1st official campaign speech outside downing street he used brags it is his platform and promise to put a deal through parliament on day one if his party wins the right to form a government. parliament is paralyzed it's been stuck in a rut for 3 and a half years and i'm afraid our m.p.'s are just refusing time and again to deliver bricks and all of the mandate of the people i can tell you i've got to the stage where i'd be willing to chew my own time in frustration because in a sense we're so nearly that we've got a deal i've been radii by which we can leave the e.u. in just a few weeks it's a great deal for this country the main opposition party labor leader jeremy corbyn

is taking a different tack putting more emphasis on issues like the national health service saying that brings it must be sorted so that the country can move on judge us on whether patients are still waiting more than 4 hours and i any departments and tens of thousands of waiting months for cancer treatment judge us on whether we've got brecht's sorted within 6 months by offering the people the final say between credible leave jail and remain so we can get on with delivering the real change that this country needs more from our series paul brennan in london. so the race is underway and the gloves are off boris johnson the prime minister has given his address in downing street formally starting the start of the campaign by the conservative party and we saw in his address at the start of

a new slogan that hasn't been heard before come with us he said repeatedly comparing and contrasting the conservative approach to various policies with the labor approach other things he said was let's get it done and unleash the potential of the whole of the united kingdom he said if the conservatives could be returned to power that they would get on with it and 2020 would be a year of unleashing the potential of millions of pounds of investment he said rather than a year of did which he said would take place if labor won the election by contrast the leader of the opposition jeremy corbyn has been saying and telling voters that he would be a very different kind of leader to boris johnson that he would be more consultative that he would not just hold open the door and allow it to slam back in the face of anybody following bubbly over when he exactly knew about the behavior of a former aide in relation to the collapse of a rape trial in wales alan cans the well secretary said he hadn't known about it but emails have emerged saying he knew about it months and months ago and as

a result of being caught out in that he's had to resign has referred himself to the ministerial body to be investigated for that another setback was the conservative media office being courthouse doctoring a video on social media showing apparently the labor. spokesperson kiss starmer being stung by a question about labor's bracks a policy when in fact in the reality of the interview he had answered promptly and completely so it's not been a good day for the conservative party on this 1st full day of campaigning but it's that's not the it's a marathon it's not a sprint we've got 5 weeks ahead it's going to be plenty more bumps in the road as we go forward to that december 12th election. a group of environmental activists known as extinct wednesday as a victory for freedom and democracy they say that the polices attempt to ban the extinction rebellion protests which took place in october under the so-called all

some uprising to raise awareness against the dangers posed by climate change to this ban was in effect a democratic one the court cited the police's reference through the british law a specific section within its section 14 of the public or the rock which gives them the power through preventing any public assembly or gathering which they see to pose a threat to properties or team wider society to disband was in fact illegal and the reason why they said that it was up to these protests that were taking place in october were protesters gathering to cross the roads and entrances to sensitive buildings like the bank of england around parliament and on the london city airports and whilst they were in geographic connected the police said that this was all one large demonstration which are essentially power lies society and therefore gave them the rights of court into the law to prevent what the judges

said well those who were arrested some $1800.00 or so protesters could potentially sue them on the metropolitan police for unlawful protest and obviously those who are charged there was a real fear on the $160.00 those charges would be dropped this isn't the final verdict in the sense that the police do have the choice if they so wish to appeal it's whether they'll do that or not we'll still wait and find out. a number of people have been stabbed in jordan the attack happened in the city of jeddah the victims include for tourists from mexico and switzerland for jordanians for among those injured one person has been arrested. he was heading towards the cafeteria and i was standing by the door behind me will the tourists a little into the cafeteria he passed in front of me and i link towards him i slipped and he stabbed me then backed away moving towards the policeman gave the policeman a slight step i tried to attack him from behind and i pushed him to the ground afterwards all the policemen came and took him iran is taking further steps away

from the 2015 nuclear deal and says it will soon start activating its uranium enrichment facility tehran is expected to stop pumping uranium gas into centrifuges at an underground area near the city of qom the u.s. has called the move a big step in the wrong direction and the e.u. says that it's concerned as interest or such a body reports from tehran the spokesperson for iran's atomic energy organization made a statement on state t.v. earlier on wednesday announcing that the 1st phase of restarting the centrifuges at the for nuclear facility is under way let's hear some of what he had to say. earlier today 2000 kilograms of us 6 was delivered to ford a nucleus sought under the supervision of inspectors the restarting of centrifuges will take a few hours and from the process of injecting your rainy and gas into them will begin. this latest measure that's being taken by the iranian authorities is just

another indication that iran doesn't believe the remaining european signatories to the nuclear deal of 2015 that is france britain and germany are no longer abiding by this deal since the united states withdrew from it last year and imposed a series of sanctions on iran the iranian president hassan rouhani has said that iran will continue to scale back its commitment to the way until the european signatories uphold their end of the deal for now the rain ins are adamant that 4 door will become fully operational this was a nuclear site that was very much negotiated about because it became a complete research facility after the nuclear deal was signed but now the iranians have decided that it is time for it to become fully operational the process to enrich uranium is perhaps not surprisingly complex here is laura bush natalie. iran is moving out hips 99.3 percent is uranium $23.00 eights and the

rest uranium 235 and it's that much smaller isotope the can release enough energy to fuel a nuclear reactor or a bomb but for that it needs to be enrich and this is done in centrifuges that spin the element forcing your anian 235 into the center but that's time consuming and difficult but it becomes easier as the uranium is further refined now before the nuclear deal came into effect iran has a richer in uranium at 20 percent now it's 5 percent which is the nothing for the moment to meet its nuclear fuel needs but it would need between 85 and 90 percent to make a nuclear weapon it's also using more advanced ai all 6 centrifuges to enrich uranium faster now the countries demonstrators have been blocking the support now

for days on tuesday the demonstrator was killed dozens were injured after security forces opened fire to try to disperse the operations at the port of come to a standstill that brings in most of iraq's food and medical imports meanwhile in the capital at least 3 people have been killed in large anti-government demonstrations that's according to the iraqi human rights council who say that 17 other people were injured on wednesday. more than 260 people have been killed across the country since demonstrations began last month a corruption of high levels of unemployment and serious matushka name is among the demonstrators. this is an issue of trust protesters do not trust the current political leaders in power to enact substantive change it's also an issue of pace they want immediate results now this is what the government says it is doing right now a constitutional committee committee is meeting looking at amendments to the constitution

and those amendments would include transforming iraq's political system from a parliamentary system to a presidential system and abolishing the revile the provincial councils people are so angry with these provincial councils they have been setting fire to buildings across the country protesters understand that this is a process that it may not happen suddenly and that it could be a gradual change but they're seeing no signs from the government that the prime minister idealogical not happy will step down and it's time for people given and they're seeing no indications of when early elections may be held the president has said that a draft of a new election law is being formed it's going to be presented to the parliament this week he has also said that a new election committee is going to be formed and that the members will be prioritized by credentials as opposed to political party affiliations but when you

consider the fact that protesters in this country have been in the streets on and off for about a decade and in that time they have seen their economic prospects in the educational system deteriorate the infrastructure crumble and not a single top level government official has been held to account for corruption you can understand why people here are impatient and fed up they are saying that leader after leader has come and gone each has offered promises and yet we had yet to see substantive results that is why protesters are saying they will not stop their campaign and till they see real results. whether uptake thanks him on al-jazeera then. by the. violent clashes in bolivia as anger against president abel what i list to do is to probe. the head of the u.n. agency for palestinian refugees steps aside clouds at sea right here is tropical

report said there was mismanagement at the agency involving pierre will the boss of annorah and his inner circle now when that 1st report was leaked back in july some of that inner circle left the deputy commissioner general sandra mitchell resigned as did the chief of staff shar while on the other person named was the senior adviser to the commission of general maria mohamadi she stays in her post mr crack and will now stepping aside after following that internal report the u.n. secretary general asked his own internal investigators to look at the situation they produced a report it's not be made public but the secretary general has seen it and for now mr credible well damaging because remember last year the u.s. pulled out all its funding for under a israel has annorah in its targets he'd like would like to see the whole agency shut down and some other countries belgium netherlands switzerland following the

original allegations in july they pulled their funding i can tell you than last couple of hours i've spoken to belgians ambassador who said he felt it was important that any management or leg irregularities were dealt with but made it clear that his country belgium continues to support the very important work that does for palestinians in the west bank and in garza diplomatic as a james pace there live at the u.n. in new york jets many thanks. the french government has announced plans for new immigration rules for citizens of normal e.u. states the measures include tougher laws for asylum seekers including curbing access to health care for the 1st time a quota for skilled migrants would come into effect that's a similar approach to the one implemented by straightly and canada and the tougher requirements for obtaining french citizenship many believe the changes are a way to counter the rise of the far right in france ahead of the 2822 presidential

election. the general purpose of our action is that of sovereignty we want to regain control of our migration policy taking control means expressing and assuming clear choices about reception and integration it has to ensure that the issue of residence permits is more a matter of principles one is a so-called economic migration and the other asylum seekers now in terms of economic migration and the leap says that france will introduce for the 1st time quotas for workers now what that means is that the french government would assess which industries and frogs have a skilled labor shortage and they would adjust the quotas accordingly it's the sort of system that is in place in countries like australia or canada now in terms of asylum seekers the french government want to crack down on people they say are abusing the system and what they're going to introduce is they'll be more limits

and more curbs on the access to health care for asylum seekers asylum seekers who are claiming benefits will be more tightly controlled last year the french government said and $28.00 in there are about $123000.00 asylum applications and the government is saying that's far more than they have been in previous years and they see that trend continuing and that is why they really want to try and focus on that area of immigration policy as well what some critics of the french government and the french president say that the free. government is simply pandering to conservatives and to the far right and could risk alienating some of their more left wing or centrist voters but the french president tomorrow might call says that it is very important that the to around immigration is lifted those were his words earlier this year because he said otherwise the issue of immigration ends up fueling the far right ends up feeling populous sentiment in france and that is

something of course he wants to stop particularly as there is a presidential election coming up in less than 3 years. now with a year until the u.s. presidential election democrats have unseated a number of republicans in state polls it's being seen as a setback for president donald trump who campaigned for fellow republicans before tuesday's elections. young reports. democrat andy pushier says he's won kentucky's race for governor. it was a typo mention especially for a conservative leaning state. it's a message that says our elections don't have to be about right versus left they are still about right versus wrong. it seemed as a setback for president donald trump who easily won kentucky in 2016 to kentucky is leading the way you know cursorily campaign for republican governor matt bevan

who's recent fights with labor unions and teachers made him among the least popular governors in the country here's a story for you when they go to make you like and if you lose they can say trump suffered the greatest defeat in the history of the world this was the great you can't let that happen to me. in the one swing state of virginia democrats won the majority in both the house and the senate the 1st in more than 2 decades virginia is officially. this shift could give the party control to pass controversial laws on gun control that were previously blocked by republicans. and the conservative state of mississippi republicans won big victory. reeves took the governor's seat against the state's attorney general jim hood the victory seen as a sign of the billet for trump

boeing's already shaky reputation it is more concerning whistleblower reports specifically from the south carolina plant where boeing produce the 787 dreamliner now boeing is a manufacturer they produce the 787 from 2 plants one in seattle and one here in south carolina and for a long time there have been questions over quality at boeing south carolina plant specifically on the 707 dreamliner so of course with new reports now suggesting that in some tests oxygen was failing to leave the cylinder and come through 2 passenger masks as much as a 25 percent failure rate during some tests that is concerning but what i do want to clarify is that boeing did concede and say they recognize there was a problem in 2017 and they have synced sorted that basically to ensure that none of those 40 cylinders ended up in commercial set is. in bolivia thousands of people have marched through the capital la paz and protest against disputed election
