4:02 pm
a long standing politician in what police are now describing as a terrorist incidents, david amos was stabbed to death at a meeting with constituents on friday afternoon. the home secretary, pretty petto, said, steps will be taken to prevent such an attack happening again. there are measures underway right now. i've convened meetings yesterday, i've been with this speaker of the house and with the police and our security services to make sure that all measures are being put in place for the security of m p so that they can carry on with their duties as elected democratic members was the home secretary, they're a little bit early. we had the prime minister bars johnson and the leader of the opposition. he a storm of visiting the site to pay their tributes. there was a 25 year old man in custody held on suspicion of murder after being arrested at the same. so let's start things off with rory challenge reporting from lee on see this saturday and behind you. the tributes are bringing
4:03 pm
a moment of political solidarity that you don't often see. yeah, we saw that her earlier on today, and we went, boris johnson and kissed armor. both came down together, 2 men who in their day jobs are on opposite sides of the divide. her quest of each other's motives, questioning each other's integrity. today they put that aside, and i think that's a message that is coming loud and clear from westminster that this has transcended, it's overcome those normal divisions that you see in british political life for astronomy. and said that david amos is one of the kindest, nicest, most gentle people in politics. and that's the kind of message you're hearing about him from all parties and her friends from all the people who knew him the, the messages in the attributes that have been left have a very similar tone to them, essentially saying that he was a kind man. and a dedicated public servant,
4:04 pm
a man who was killed essentially doing something there was integral to his job. he was going out there and he was meeting the public face to face that, that the police are saying, this is a terrorist investigation. now terror investigation is the metropolitan police or that is looking after the investigation. and they have arrested a 25 year old man, as he said, come out. the early investigation, they say, has revealed a potential motivation links to islamic extremism, but that's as far as i going was out of the moment. okay. and then we saw and we heard the home secretary are pretty battelle, they're talking about measures being taken to ensure this doesn't happen again. the fact is, we're, we this, is it happening again, isn't it with him in the name joe cox? it's, it's anonymous of what's happened here. yeah, i mean, to be honest, you can't really stop happening in the future. if politicians, if m pays are to carry on meeting the public face to face, it's an activity that is so crucial to their jobs. it's crucial to how they operate
4:05 pm
as public servants, but it makes them vulnerable ministers. have me particularly the top ministers, have close security that follows them often. wherever they go and pays back, vention pays. they can't really do that. they can't have that. it would stop them doing what they need to do, and most of them don't want to have that kind of protection. so pretty put out in the home office has a dilemma and it will have to strike a balance. the one thing that printed out. but i was saying that was that she's not going to try to stop and he's doing that face to face outreach to the public representation that cannot be taken away from m. p. 's. otherwise the kind of functioning of the parliamentary democracy like the u. k. has but it doesn't really work so well anymore. another thing that is in the news because of this event is and kind of soul searching about the tone in which politics has talked about in the
4:06 pm
u. k. and about whether that is something that has become too he said to that, you know, that can to toxic and whether it needs to be dial down. thank you. or we challenge for those up. that's where we reporting from lee on see this saturday. we want to build on what we're talking about there and take a closer look at the current security arrangements for you. k politicians facade at the top, the houses of parliament way, and p cit, that is heavily guarded. armed police man, every entrance, the public cannot freely enter. you go outside of parliament, only the prime minister and some senior cabinet secretaries have their personal security details. as rory was saying, their regular em pays must rely on a standard police response. they can request equipment like cctv opposing alarms, but really it is up to them to organize their own security measures. so let's talk about this a with matthew goodman is a professor at the university of kent and the co author of national populism. the revolt against liberal democracy. thank you for your time. i don't know if you heard our conversation with the correspondent just before then, but he was saying,
4:07 pm
there is a balance here. yes, we have to protect people, but damn pace have a job to do. and this is an integral part of it. is there somewhere in the middle? well, i think that's absolutely correct. one thing to add to that conversation, and i agree with your correspondence. he made that point dated. i use himself was a great believer in british democracy in the historic link between the vote, a citizen on, on the one hand and the politician on the other. i think to be frank, he's the last person who would want to see that link become much weaker or even blocked. so i don't think there's a case today for not using security to shanta and he's from their constituents. but i think there is a very good discussion about how can we put some measures in place just to
4:08 pm
give and he's going to security both of you and in that constituency offices. for example, having a police member, a member of the police of is present when they are conducting those meetings. that you can you explain for our international audience about this? and it's, it's a curious term they use in the u. k. holding it a surgery. how it operates, i'm sure every m p does a slightly differently, but broadly speaking, can any member of that constituency just roll up on the day? do they have to sort of notifying events? how does it broadly work? yes, actually it is a very regular forum, a meeting went by the local constituents, have an opportunity to type issues, concerns, questions directly to their member problem. it's a very sorry relationship and you might argue with the it's the, the heart and soul of british democracy. whether nellikka in parliament sit down
4:09 pm
with a constituent. it's very easy to arrange those meetings often conducted through the m p. 's office. but i think now it's probably time to have a discussion about whether we could put security measures in place to pass it, not, not remove that function because that would be a disastrous move. i think the british marcus a rather to ensure that at least somebody is present of the security police. going to see that. but even before that, i mean, i don't like using this sort of terminology, but screening people actually taking a list of people who are due to comma, who want to com and actually doing the checks. i mean it's, it's, it's a slippery slope or no. well, i think certainly that will be something a pretty good tell you secretary, secretary will be looking at today. we've also just heard this afternoon, the local police, our offices are conducting interviews with every member of parliament today. you know,
4:10 pm
we tend to discuss what security arrangements they have in place that they're home and at their constituency, opposite offices. and i think that that will continue going forward. we yet to discover really what the motive on the line this is and of course is pointing in that direction of our religious vice full of extremism. this will why use questions like the case outside the houses of parliament? a police officer was, was murdered, i race and i think this will become part of that brought to conversation. not just about how do we protect them, but how do we actually bolster integration and how do we manage counselor extremism involving a lot of places to, to bring together on their look. thank you so much for your time. matthew gordon from the university of kent. we appreciate that 10 minutes past this news hour. here's what's coming up. now. some of the hong kong, post vocal activists, a jailed, sending shockwave to the pro democracy movement. the worst crisis threatening our
4:11 pm
transition. that message from sedans, the prime minister is more protests, are called and spoke the houston astros take some hips game, want to pay a playoff series with the boston red sox. and you see with that at about 10 to the ah, on to afghanistan with a ton of ants, promising to step up security at she moss softer. the 2nd major attack against worship is in a week in was being held in kandahar following a bomb attack on friday. the kills at least 48 people. iceland afghanistan claimed responsibility. this is after a similar attack on the northern city of condos last week. members of the ship community calling for protection, done as long underslung people, our coward enemies, merciless, too old. we ask d as lamar emerett to seriously think about our security,
4:12 pm
because our enemies will harm our society by any means. they can put a hug. stephanie decker and cobble with more on this, any details on this level of security that's going to be stepped up for the cio community. while the kandahar police chief saying that it's going to be special police units assigned to, she are mosques that initially had been now under the protection of volunteers who had been issued a fire arms. and he said that clearly that wasn't providing enough protection. and that is going to be stepped up that's of course because you know, over the last 8 days you've had to attacks on chia places of worship during friday . prayers. one in kandahar is we're talking by the one in north east in conducing the, the faculty so significant about kandahar kamala, that because that's the 1st time that iceland, afghanistan has targeted the taliban heartland carried out this kind of attack to suicide bombers. according to the i, so a statement of the, of the claiming responsibility that 2 men managed to detonate themselves during
4:13 pm
friday. prayers are really a statement to the taliban that you know, they can strike at their very heartland. and i can tell you just from what we've seen, you know, in the aftermath of that here in kabul in the capital particular moving around the ministry security does seem to have been beefed up. and it does seem to indicate that the taliban realizes that now this is something that would have to take very seriously. stephanie, another matter i wanted to talk to you about, we were reporting earlier about the joint strike that happened in kabul in there in the final days of the u. s. troop patrol, 10 people killed and the u. s. the pentagon now and they will be offering some sort of compensation. you've got an update on that. that's right. so we heard the overnights saying that they were going to issue the victims. of course, this was a what the, the leader of centcom in the end called a tragic mistake drone strike on a car that the american said they believed belonged to. i saw that it had visited a safe house, really what it appear to be in the end. what it transpired,
4:14 pm
tragically was a man who worked for us aid organization. and in that drone strike targeting his car, when he came home at the end of the day, 10 people were killed members of extended family and 7 children. so you're now what you're seeing is a claim of certainly responsibility. but again, like we spoke to some of the family members today, whether they thought that this was going to be enough compensation or returning to the you at the united states. and this is what they had to say. well, the cargo starts, the u. s. said they will provide aid and they will compensate us and all that so far. they haven't done any of those. and they said they will take us to the us, but they haven't. no, definitely. we are eager to go because we are under security threats every minute and every 2nd of our lives are in danger. i love, i miss my friends so much. nobody can understand our pain. they have harmed us enormously and ended our friendship. i even dream of them. so it is a statement there that they will be doing, deciding who love to wait and see how it trickles down when they will be getting
4:15 pm
the compensation. and what kind of format comes, how much money it is, but certainly a lot of the family members saying that they actually want to leave afghanistan. and many people want to leave afghanistan, kamala, it's not just the fears of the taliban. it's also the desperate economic situation . here, the fears of a, at the instability. many people will tell you that talent that jeff garrison has been in stable for very long time. but now everyone saying that people i've been speaking to recently, that they simply cannot predict what's gonna happen. also, of course, this is a country that has no more money on the international community is withholding millions and millions of dollars. people haven't been paid their salaries really desperate times year winter is coming and people will tell you that that's going to be incredibly difficult. also with over 3000000 people displaced very little shelter and it gets incredibly cold here. stephanie deca reporting from cobble. thank you, stephanie, and to continue on what she was talking about there, those millions of people have been displaced by let's remember, decades of war in afghanistan really are increasingly concerned about this

4:20 pm
let me pick up my protest against the president dominant here, eventually led by the military. but these people, the group that make up this new f a, b, a splinter from the main f s the, they're mostly on grouping physicians. they say that's because the main half of the medical william political parties do not prevent them and have a clue to the group and other opposition parties from coalition and from governance . again, this is a join the military government to william, pardon me, to help me to maintain that lead the i think i'm not the however, the splintered group has signed a lease agreement. many of the, many of the parties in the printer to find that because we met with the transitional government last year. and now many of them pulled in the government. i think it will be in the national assembly, but they say that they're not represented in the states, and that's why they put the thing they calling for why debate for more presentations in all parts of the country. but we keep saying transitional

4:22 pm
to take place, they say that this is the military or not keen on having for the military is not keen on having power to civilian government that they delaying and be reeling the transition, now there's also split among the political parties, some of those who are in the 4th. so if you're doing well, listen, i have said that that the way that the transition is going is not to their liking, participate in the community, come in a heartbeat. others who have as much as it comes down to what's happening during the signs of him to say the standby until elections are held in january 2024. but there is a division that had been widening since they attempted to last month. and between the political parties themselves, say that their base should expand it to this new after the fashion and others say that because there are groups because they have already signed the lease agreement, which guarantees them see and the national government and actually completed with somebody from said that there is no need to, i didn't have a morgan keeping an eye on the protests today and how to sit down. thank you. hipaa
