when you're from a neighbourhood known as a hot bed of radicalism, you have to fight to define stereotypes. i don't believe in god shotgun the stories we don't often hear told by the people who live them in all my leisure . when, when they when they get that is available in the shallow sama, the book set. this is year on al jazeera ah, holding the powerful to account as we examine the u. s. his role in the world on al jazeera. ah, i think it's an extremely good, positive, conclusive, decisive result, which enables us to move on. british prime minister barak johnston survives

2:02 am
parliamentarians voted in johnson's favor and 148 against that means 40 percent of his colleagues refused to back him a sizable chunk. that leaves questions about the prime minister's future po brennan reports not from london. a victory for the prime minister, but far from convincingly the vote in favor of having confidence embarrass. johnston said it was $211.00 popes and a vote against was a $148.00 votes. and therefore, i can announce to parliamentary party does have ah, a raucous reaction from boris johnson, supporters with no disguising the enormity of the 148 m. p. 's who voted against their own leader. so convincing result, a decisive result of what it, what it means is that as a, as
2:03 am
a government we can move on and focus on the stuff i think really matters to people think i recently, feverish speculation about polish johnston's political future had been relegated somewhat by last week's fort a national holiday in honor of the cruise button jubilee. the public brewing which greeted the prime minister at friday service of thanksgiving for the queen was an ominous indicator. ah, a random sample of london commuters confirms a certain degree of public disillusionment. i thought i was st. helena actually that he copied, that was almost like africa. turner, despite securing a solid atc majority in the general election just 2 and a half years ago. for, as johnson has enjoyed 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,
2:04 am
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, criticized the lack of leadership. the british public are fed up set up with a prime minister who promises big, but never delivers. fed up with a prime minister who's presided over a culture of lies a law breaking. the heart of government fed up with a prime minister, who is utterly unfit for the great office that he holds, its victory for boris johnson, but hardly a ringing endorsement of him and his leadership. one commentator on monday said johnson's appeal within the party was a mile wide, but just an inch deep. and so it seems. johnson himself will undoubtedly battle on fighting tooth and nail to retain his grip on power. but his options are rapidly dwindling. the current rules mean it will be at least 12 months before a new confidence vote can be caught. the questions about the prime minister's
2:05 am
judgement and credibility remain, and precedent shows that surviving a confidence vote often represents only a stay of execution for tory leaders. rather than a full reprieve, pull brennan, al jazeera westminster alive to another of our correspondence. turner holl, who's outside the houses of parliament in london. so a wind as far as boys johnson is concerned, but how secure is his grip on power. while convincing decisive the words used by boris johnson but make no mistake, this was no comfortable wind for the prime minister. he's lost an enormous chunk of his own party. in fact, a larger chunk than teresa made his previous s. a last in 2018 in similar circumstances. and within 8 months, she was gone. opposition party leaders, of course, circling, talking about his reputation in tatters, his or 30 shots. but the real question is, what will those rebels do next to 148 of them to they simply falling behind the
2:06 am
prime minister now or will they continue to look for other ways to frustrate his premiership? perhaps standing in the way of government palsy or coalescing around a favored candidate to replace him in order to pressure him to quit. the problem is there is no standout favored candidate. and so the prospect blooms of a government in dysfunction of a number, 10 downing street machine dedicated less to the welfare and benefit of the country . and to simply keeping boris johnson in power, train the whole lives. so westminster, for us. thank you. now, mexico's preston to follow through with a threat to boycott, the u. s. hosted summit of the americas this week. andrew manuel at his open door, his skipping it due to cuba, venezuela and nicaragua, being excluded. the u. s. senate understands over those positions, but won't include countries. it seems to be on democrats in mexico will send its
2:07 am
foreign minister in the presence place in the way they will come. but if i made it, there cannot be a summit of the americans. if all the countries of the americans do not participate will they can be. but we consider that this as a continuation of the old approach or the meeting in los angeles aims to address how to reduce migration of the us mexico border among other regional issues. on monday, another group of refugees and migrants set off from mexico heading, nor they time to their departure, to coincide with the summit. when rep hello is travelling with the group referred to as a caravan near the mexico guatemala border. one thing that's very different from this migrant caravan, as opposed to others that we've seen others that we've covered in previous years, is the homogeneity of it. there's just an overwhelming number of venezuelans that have that, that are taking part in this migrant care event. once again,
2:08 am
a care event that's coinciding with the start of the summit of the americas taking place this week in los angeles in the united states. but like other caravans that we'd seen. it's more or less a result of a policy of containment here in southern mexico, where there's a sort of bottleneck effect where the police and immigration authorities will contain migrants prevent them from moving north toward the united states, creating a pile up of stretching the limits of resources available to the government reaching a point where there's really no other option other than for them to come together for these care events and then head north. the vast majority that we've spoken to says that there's really nothing that's going to stand in their way. their objective is to reach the u. s. southern border. human trafficking crisis is unfolding in ukraine, according to the united nations, which says, perpetrators are taking advantage of the war. the security council was given a stark picture by the us special envoy for sexual violence in conflict. so pretty, it is a new land traffic as well is not
2:09 am
a tragedy. it isn't which energy women and children fleeing the convict are being targeted for trafficking and exploitation. in some cases facing further exposure to ramp up their risk while seeking refuge. they've been multiple reports from survivors of russia. soldiers breaking down doors to basements, where women were sheltering and raping them. these terrible acts were done in front of their children, and they were filmed by the russian soldiers. these are bone chilling accounts. let us go through the ratchet enough accusations off russian service personnel, committing crimes of his sexual nature. since the very beginning of our special military operation in ukraine has become a favorite tactic of the key regime in our western colleagues. the un nuclear watchdog, his sounding you alarms about ukrainian plan,
2:10 am
that's on the russian control. i. 8 chief at russell grosse says a team is trying to reach this operation plant to make safety checks. grossey says he's particularly concerned about warnings from ukraine's atomic regulator that they've lost control of nuclear material that plant, which is the largest in europe. of course, i must say that whatever, whatever we would do at somebody tia is something that, that the ages he alone. he's going to be doing when he comes to safeguards or safety or security activities. and this is part of our legal relationship, boy that you great. so we cannot to invite others 3rd parties to but there has been some discussion. i cannot reveal everything because i'm stealing the process so far, consulting here with the grain or north shore russia, that there could be some international presence to add on to their to the team gotten their dominant. kane has more now from berlin. one of the starkest
2:11 am
messages coming from mr. grossey, the director general of the i a, a regards the security, the safeguarding, and the safety not only of the plant but the staff there. and he says that in the opinion of him and his agency, 5 of the 7 central pillars of nuclear safety are now compromised. and that the ukrainian government has told his agency that they are no longer in a position to be able to provide the details about what's taking place there because it is now in the hands of the russian forces. the interesting thing here is that mr. grossey said that he believes the safety and security and safeguarding off ukraine's nuclear facilities is now one of the most pressing issues that the world faces. and he says that it is of pressing urgency that his agency be able to get back into facilities such as at as
2:12 am
a procedure to be able to see what has gone wrong and to try to put it right. so quite a stark message from mister grossey. interestingly, in so far as iran is concerned, mr. grosses view was that some of the behavior by the iranian government is making it more difficult to be able to bring some sort of positive statement from his agency v's avi talks. specifically, he cited 3 specific sites in iran, where his agency says it has evidence. that enrichment of uranium has taken place to brothers. it facing corruption charges in south africa have been arrested in dubai. businessman register and at all booked her who were originally from india, fled south africa in 2018, their friends of former present jacob's humor, and their accused of using their relationship with him to profit financially and influence. government appointments and policy both deny wrong doing interval issued

2:17 am
when you charge against them. hold seditious conspiracy is rarely used and carries up to 20 years in prison. will live now to mike hannah in washington, d. c. in my cut. what more can you tell us about these new charges? well, the lead of the proud boys together with for his top left hand and has now been charged with the dishes conspiracy. the indictment was revealed in the course of the morning. what this means is that he and his fellows are now being accused of using violence to topple the government or to interfere with the execution of a federal law. it's a far more serious charge than the bulk of those charges that have been brought against those who took part in that january 6 events. this is the 2nd group who have been served at this particular charge, while back the leader of the so called key conspiracy along with 10 of his top
2:18 am
tenants, was also charged with the dishes conspiracy. now this indicates as well that the justice department is whitening its net in terms of taking action against those who took part in those events. the charge against the oath keepers and now against the proud boys, is directing that there is a conspiracy out of the way a small, more than the type of charges that have been brought to date, which includes things like assaulting officers, various felonies, trespassing on federal property, but this is upping the ante and it also indicates that the justice department is getting more information in terms of the cause and effect of these events. and to what extent they were actually organized with the express intent of bringing down the government or interfering with the execution of federal law. and mike, the committee investigating the attack is due to the out. it's finding soon we
2:19 am
understand will it is that's going to begin holding public hearings on the thursday evening. now the house committee investigating the generally sick the vents is also understood to be looking at the question of conspiracy. not only with regard to groups like the proud boys and the oath keepers, but also take costing its net wider looking. it is understood at followers of president trump and possibly even the former president himself, in being part of a wider conspiracy to overthrow the government. once again, that may need including them within the seditious conspiracy type arguments, but the house committee has kept, or what it is, gathering very closely to its chest. it has interviewed a vast number of people with regard to those events. a number of republicans have refused to take part in the proceedings,
2:20 am
and number of trump supporters had refused to take part in the proceedings. but equally, some of them have been indicted by the justice department for refusing to accept, said penis issued by the house committee. so the house committee will be starting to hold these public hearings, and perhaps during those hearings will understand more about what route of the house committee is going. remembering that it is on the face of a debate, bipartisan committee. it consists of 7 democrats and 2 republicans, but many republicans within the house and senate have rejected the committee as a partisan effort. yet still it's investigation is likely to reveal more about what occurred on january the 6th. and most importantly, what would the links of other politicians to those events, in particular, those following former president tramp and perhaps even the former president himself. okay, thank you. mike hannah life 1st there in washington, dc. investigators in bangladesh are trying to work out what caused
