10:02 pm
but even if he wins many believe it will simply be the beginning of the end. for johnson's 10 years, prime minister pulled run, and reports. ah, recent feverish speculation about bonus, johnson's political future had been relegated somewhat by last week's fort a national holiday in honor of the queen's platinum, jubilant. but the public brewing, which greeted the prime minister at friday service of thanksgiving for the queen, was an ominous indicator. a random sample of london commuters confirms a certain degree of public disillusionment. i thought i was so talent actually that he got boot. i think that was almost like a fellow attorney for the booze i think reflected a mood across the country. and that's why there are amongst other things i think that's while many tory and peace feel at that basic crossed as go to trigger
10:03 pm
a vote of confidence at least 54 of those conservative or tory and peace needed to have written a formal letter demanding it the man tasked with keeping count of those letters, sir graham brady. i notified the prime minister yesterday that the threshold had been reached and we agreed. the time table for confidence, hopes a place. and he shared my view, which is also in line with the rules that we have in place, that that vote should happen as soon as could reasonably take place. and that would be today despite securing a solid atc majority in the general election just 2 and a half years ago for as johnson has endured months of controversy and criticism which have steadily undermined his authority chief among them the party gates saga, where johnson and many of his stuff were found to have flouted covey, lockdown rules at downing street gatherings. johnson became the 1st p. m. judge to have broken the law, while in office deficient inquiry into those events, criticised to lack of leadership. johnson's ministerial colleagues are remaining
10:04 pm
supportive in public, at least replaced by ministers of birth. extraordinary reasons, only failure in war pull tides, all sorts of things. we're really good advocate with night i had a period of a sustained distractions, and the party get issue is significant. but we've also had, at the conclusion of the piece investigation, the conclusion of the c gray report. and i think it's time to draw a line in the sand on that. but johnson's critics are massing the numbers, the m p, who johnson himself appointed. his anti corruption saw resigned the roll on monday in protest, and believes tonight's conference vote put the pm on the brink. technically, a majority, one is, is, is enough for tonight. the problem will be and or not he survives and has credibility on an issue of leadership ongoing and the, the precedence so far. all that anybody who wins by a bit,
10:05 pm
not enough that doesn't last very much longer off. who should those you know, brought us johnson well say he will not relinquish power willingly. but after months of criticism, speculation, and wavering, a growing number of johnson's own and peace seemed ready to take the decision out of his hands, pulled brennan al jazeera. well, here's how the confidence process works. there are 359 conservative m p 's to win the vote. johnson needs the support of half of them plus one. so at least a $180.00 votes if he wins and piece cannot hold another confidence vote for further 12 months. well, during the whole, joins us live from westminster in london. i understand about it is just close and be the finish waiting. when are we going to know the results? about a closed at the stroke of a pm 2 or 3 minutes ago. now m p 's that had 2 hours to cost their votes for or against for his children, not just as the leader of the conservative party,
10:06 pm
but of course consequently as leader of the country. the votes will now rapidly be counted there. only 359 of them, as you pointed out, that it won't take awfully long. and when that result is known, bars, johnson will be notified 1st by text or potentially by whatsapp. before an announcement is made at 9 pm 8 gmc, and about an hour's time in committee. room 14 in the house of commons behind me. as you said, that threshold figure that he needs to gain. his simple majority is 180. he'll be hoping to win by a much larger majority than that if he wins, he is secure from a challenge like this, at least under the current rules for 12 months. but if he loses well then his tenure as effective prime minister is over. he will remain only as a cat take a prime minister for as long as it takes his party to choose a successor. what are the polls showing? joyner? could he, when it's extremely hard
10:07 pm
to judge, there is only guesswork involved because of the nature of this vote. it is a secret vote, so that even m p 's, who professed public support of ours johnson may well have voted against him. behind closed doors, it is generally thought that he's likely to win because of the so called payroll vote. there are a lot of n piece of a given extra job by the government has ministers or private parliamentary secretaries and so on. plus a few more to push him over the line of course, but it could be a very narrow victory. and that presents real problems for the prime minister. he might find himself running a party that is deeply divided with large cliques within it, potentially working against him and frustrating policy. and a reminder that the last time this happened to his predecessor theresa may, she survived a vote of no confidence by the conservative party in december 2018. but in the process last one 3rd of her, m. p. 's. just over 6 months later, she resigned. turn the whole keeping us updated from westminster. thank you. well,
