a plant based burger without any meat that everyone can eat. welcome to the program iraqi prime minister. has for many submitted his resignation to parliament but it's done little to calm protesters around the country demonstrators clashed with security forces off of trying to block a road in the capital baghdad medical officials say 3 people were shot dead at least $58.00 wounded in those protests so manifold and reports now from baghdad. the day prime minister of the mahdi submitted his resignation crowds in tahrir square showed no intention of packing up and going home banners were still held high doctors remained on standby to treat the wounded and new street art sprung to life depicting the aspirations of the protest movement. for many the prime minister's departure is just the 1st perhaps the easiest step on

a long road towards change they want parliament dissolved and fresh elections to be held under a new election law the problem is not just the prime minister it's not the queen it's a whole beehive all of them have to resign if the prime minister to leave someone similar to him will replace him. it's a fear dad risks becoming a reality in an emergency cabinet meeting of the mahdi said he would stay on as part of a caretaker government until parliament chose his replacement. morkel to be. there is no doubt that the council and its parties and members will oversee the finding of an appropriate solution as fast as possible because the country in this circumstances cannot a caretaker government for a long time so i want the parliament to complete the procedures to appoint a new prime minister and government. that process could take weeks even months and requires buy in from local and foreign power brokers because.

for sure the political parties are facing a difficult exam they can't go back to the balance of power that used to be in place they have to come up with an extraordinary government which has to complete the process of passing a new election law that is agreed by the protesters. but reforms won't bring the victims back nor will they appease those who mourn them as the death toll rises demands for justice grow louder. comes to tahrir square every week to pray for the victims she doesn't just want to leave she wants his government to be held accountable good luck than not it is. not just him those who opened fire she gave the order this is blood this is the blood of the people of the year they kill their pride claims and they go to the graves instead of celebrating their wedding their stained with blood. or those responsible for that bloodshed should be

punished the government has promised to investigate the most recent violence but as the focus shifts towards appointing a new prime minister such promises risk being forgotten demonstrators have welcomed his offer to resign but their joy is overshadowed by uncertainty over whether he will really leave and both will happen next without big changes for the rockefeller or long many fear that whoever 2 succeeds him will simply carry on with what they see as the same failed political force that the wonderful thing in all of this iraq but that. there's an iraq analyst at the washington institute for near east policy he says the resignation of mufti puts the entire iraqi political system in uncharted territory. the resignation of the prime minister automatically means the resignation of the entire cabinet this is the 1st time that this happens in iraq so the legal ways forward not necessarily clear but one way or another there has to be

a new the president has to give mandate to a new person or a new bloc in parliament to form a new government the prime minister in his resignation letter specifically said that iraq needs a permanent government rather than a caretaker government something that the street have requested the latter a caretaker government that you know once the affairs and till new elections are in place for the new system to be in place i mean adelman he was the face of this lack of accountability in the iraqi political system rather than the system itself so he could easily be scapegoated in fact is probably overdue for him to be leaving the scene but this is not the end of the road grand ayatollah sistani has played a significant role in channeling the protest movement into a single ask of the political leadership and of the government obviously in the absence of strong iraqi state institutions on the one hand and also in the in the absence of organized civil society the inability of the populists and public

protest movement into being translated into employee specific ask that the laws that he has played that again referring back to the document these resignation letter he doesn't say in response to the protesters but specifically says in response to the call by grant that the losses. pressure is growing on malta's prime minister after a prominent businessman was charged over the murder of a journalist you're going fenech has been charged with complicity in the murder of death in a car on the galaxy and 2017 he pleaded not guilty to this and other charges relating to the case has developed into a major political crisis for the prime minister joseph muscat his chief of staff resigned this week amid reports he was being questioned by police but we spoke to albert gallagher a journalist at the motor independent about the possible repercussions this case could have on the prime minister. the prime minister is he's expected to be giving

a televised address tomorrow morning and the indication is that he will be announcing his intention to step down and stocking up the process or the leadership race for the labor party which he's part of. partly in an election which will inform would take place on the 18th of january as to whether he'll step down imminently we are we're not entirely sure yet. about protests those are demanding the his resignation is his immediate ever since. the 1st political conflict was now 10 days ago there has been a protest any time the crowds get larger and larger and all of them are calling for the same thing that is now that he's in his immediate resignation and this is something that that track back for the off ever since the assassination of the things even the panama paper scandal moved 3 years ago when his staff who resigned

last last tuesday and a senior minister who also resigned last year was they were wearing named as having secret companies. it's been revealed the man who killed 2 people in a knife attack in london was released from prison last year after serving just half of a sentence for his part in a foil bomb plot was meant khan was shot dead by police on london bridge on friday he began his attack at a conference he was attending on prisoner at rehabilitation conference stansell reports. dramatic new video showing bystanders as they take down an attacker on london bridge after he went on a stabbing rampage they use a whale tusk and a fire extinguisher to stun him and then tackle him before armed police move in. i've been born and bred in england and stoke on trent in co beach and the older community knows me and they will know you if you ask them di will know that the labels will deploy not a terribly nice to start you will know. i know terrorist those words spoken by

osman khan just over 10 years before friday's attack. 28 year old was attending a conference on prisoner rehabilitation when he threatens to blow up the venue he stabbed 5 people before running out to nearby london bridge. in 2012 he was convicted in connection to a plot to blow up the london stock exchange he was released from prison in december last year serving less than half his sentence we want to toughen up sentences for serious and violent offenses and i've said for a long time that i think that the practice of automatic early release where you cut a sentence in hoffman lit really serious violent offenders out early simply isn't working and i think you've had some very good evidence of how that isn't working i'm afraid with this case the pearl board said it had no involvement in his release in a statement it said given the seriousness of this attack it is understandable that

there is speculation about the attackers released from prison the parole board can confirm it had no involvement with the release of the. individual identified as the attacker who appears to have been released automatically on license without ever being referred to the board police are searching khan's home in staffordshire 3 hours north of london they believe he was acting alone and there's no further threat to the public the circumstances surrounding khan's release are now in the spotlight the former head of the national counter-terrorism security office has issued a scathing criticism of the criminal justice system saying that it's playing russian roulette with the public by allowing convicted criminals to be released from prison too early and this will be a key election issue here as well with police and prisons being subject to budget cuts over recent years catherine stansell al jazeera london. who is a former london police chief superintendent he says khan's release and rehabilitation will come under close scrutiny. i think clearly he had been written

radicalized and had and was plotted and was successfully convicted of trying to blow by conic site so the prevent program has not got the confidence of the wider community and we've also seen actually it's not actually working we don't have individuals that are prepared to go on to commit offenses i think there's a significant concern about the judgment made by individuals to allow them to come back into london because he's proposed probation conditions were not to come back into law and he was part of the government to prevent strategy which is designed to radicalize individuals earth so lots and lots of questions to be not the right thing i think there are 3 key issues here one is the huge reduction in police resources we've lost 22 to half 1000 police officers and 18 our heart out of reach support star we've had the probation service reduced and indeed much of it was

they want to cause maximum panic and fear they want to show that bennie is ungovernable the security situation is out of control and they know that people are angry security forces so they're playing on that and they want to anger people even more so that we can see more protests going on. namibia's president has again god has been reelected for a 2nd term he won the presidential election with 56.3 percent of the vote he was 1st elected in 2014 with a sweeping majority but his popularity has slipped in a growing frustration with a lack of jobs and economic difficulties hundreds of protesters in sudan marched in the capital demanding answers from the new government they want to know what happened to their relatives they've been missing since a violent crackdown during a pro-democracy sit in khartoum activists say dozens of people have disappeared since june more than 200 people died in the demonstrations that forced omar al bashir out of office. chile's football federation has canceled all matches for the

done but some of those aren't so sure and explains. with the conservative party ahead in opinion polls boris johnson's campaign to get bricks done could prove election winning and we can get on with that deal not just the promise of leaving by january 31st but with a trade deal to by the end of 2020. more than 3 years after the ukase breaks it referendum it is a beginning timeline but one that is viewed with rather less optimism by the e.u. side it's for him it's much easier to sell people this story he knows the truth he's clearly not telling people the full truth. into felt is a member of the european parliament she's fiercely and he breaks it but reconciled to want mainline or good it will be very difficult i mean people often make the comparison with the negotiations we had with canada for

a free trade agreement i mean canada is probably the most european country on earth . they're very close to us and yet it took 7 years to negotiate a deal and it still hasn't been ratified if breaks it does become law by january 31st that would leave just 11 months to complete a trade deal before the end of the formal transition period if you thought negotiating the withdrawal agreement was tough say what is here in brussels you ain't seen nothing yet there's talk of a brutal reckoning for u.k. negotiators as they get to grips with the future relationship complete with uncomfortable compromises prolonged uncertainty and yet more nail biting deadlines to come. boris johnson insists they will be no further extensions raising the prospect of no deal on future relations between britain and its biggest trade partner really had several clif in this process and really we've got one coming up

even before the end of next year because there would have to be a decision normally or whether to extend the transition period in the middle of the year so actually with the time the kind of response the we would get even if everything goes according to plan there from the u.k. government side and leaves on january 31st wrist but it would be very short a fast or far i wouldn't necessarily take his claim starting would extend at face value because he also said the u.k. would leave that you on the 31st of october come what may and here we are but i think concerning the trade relations it's a bit like asking whether you can build a house in a week of course you can bit house in a week but the question is what kind of house you're going to get and whether anyone is going to be very happy with the house it's an irony not lost on many that the oldest part of the european parliament building in strasburg is named after britain's wartime leader boris johnson if he wins will need
