ah. does the prime minister think there are any circumstances in which he should resign? isn't this the 1st recorded case of a thinkin shit, fleeing by ross? under attack from all sides, 44 m. p. 's, now quit his government, but persons prime minister vows to fight on and even fires a close ally. oh, low, i'm mary. i'm to mozy in london, you're watching al jazeera, also coming up on the program. the u. n says a 128000000 people were affected by hunger. last year, before the crane war drove up food prices. people urged to leave sla vianza,

which is under heavy attack as russia tons, its focus to seizing ukraine's eastern danny at squeegee and and hundreds of inmates are on the run off to government attack. a prison in nigeria is capsule. ah, hello, welcome to the program. we begin here in the u. k. why prime minister or is johnson is clinging on to power despite a wave of resignations? $44.00 members of parliament, 18 of them. ministers of now quit that government positions, but the prime minister is refusing to go. he's even fired a close ally, michael. gov, who's reported to have urged him to make her dignified exit and be angry at johnson's handling of sexual misconduct claims against a law maker. he promoted pulpit and reports from london.

oh, going, going surely nearly gone on wednesday morning. the number of government resignations was still less than 10. by the afternoon, the dam had burst, and boris johnson support was draining away. because of the very simple reason why they won't be out at the regular session of prime ministers questions, the commons chamber became a bare pit of the prime minister under attack from all sides. nor does the prime minister think there are any circumstances in which he should resign. ah, the day i ask him to do the honorable thing about the interest of the nation before his own interest. yes, the speaker isn't this. the 1st recorded case of the sinking ship fleeing the wrath . the job of a prime minister in difficult circumstances wouldn't be handed to colossal man that is the keep going. well, that's a lot of it. immediately afterwards, sanji javits, the cabinet minister, who was the 1st to quit on tuesday,

returned to parliament to explain his decisions and peace. and with the prime minister listening javert didn't pull any punches. at some point, we have to conclude that enough is enough. i believe that point is now the final straw was damning streets handling of complaints against this man crisp pincher bench. he was given a government job despite previous allegations being upheld about him making unwanted sexual advances to mail staffers paws. johnson claims he didn't know about the past misconduct. in fact, it emerged that johnson had been briefed in person about it. the situation is fast approaching a tipping point where surely, forest johnson's position becomes untenable. but this is a prime minister, possessed of almost visceral stubbornness, seemingly impervious to the criticism of even close colleagues, and he will not leave this place willingly. the question was posed directly during johnson's appearance before the commons liaison committee. just on

a very human level here, you must know that is in the country's interest for you to leave. now as i look at the um, the, the pressures of people who are under the need to focus on the, on, on, on their priorities. i look at of the biggest war in europe for 8 years, and i call for the life of me see who, how it is responsible just to, to walk away from that ousting a prime minister is no trivial matter with so many choosing to resign rather than serve with this prime minister. his situation really does start to look on survivable you. question then becomes how to actually remove him from office poll brennan, al jazeera downing street. let me say, let him by, by james's live now from outside. the primary says office at 10 downing street in central london. it does feel as though the political turmoil and the turbulence is gone into overdrive over the past few hours. but then in sacking. michael. gov. it

seems as though or as johnson has taken back some of the initiative or certainly nobody expected that sacking over nobody expect to the, the huge numbers that you are referring to have to resign over the last 24 hours after michael go sacking. because we are led to believe he had told bryce johnson before prime minister, his questions that type that the time had come for him to go. or his m parliamentary private secretary also resigned. adding to those numbers of course m . m, the prime minister's allies are now saying that, well, he has, he has the numbers, he has the, the personnel around him to fill all of those vacancies. but it really is hard to see how he can do that. just in the last couple of hours. one of boris johnson's a parliamentary, private secretaries has been insisting that he will carry on, and that he has a mandate as he put it from 14000000 people. and earn the briefing is that next

week the prime minister and his new chancellor, the theme. so holly will present a new plan to revive the economy, new tax cuts, believe to be on the way. i mean, this is all something that nobody would have predicted, even at the beginning of wednesday. and boris johnson clearly clearly been urged by cabinet colleagues throughout the day or to go for the sake of the party and the country as well as in resignation, letters from any of those m. p. 's. even though number 10 was briefing that cabinet colleagues hadn't asked him to do so. now a 3rd cabinet member, the whoa secretary has gone after a richie soon act and after surgeon javert. so the, the message from number 10, we can find the people to do the job we will get on with the job. but it's becoming extremely hard to see how they will actually manage to do that in terms of what happens next. an interesting one scandal after another plague is premier ship,

but the prospect of a difficult and kale take leadership contests in town. and tanza who succeeds, buys johnson seems to have saved him. could that could that me about change next week? it could i mean that some of boys johnson's critics are saying that that back bench squinty the 1922 committee. oh, played things badly on wednesday because they met her and the speculation was that they were going to change. the rules are straight away so that another vote could be held because the rules say you can't have another one within 12 months. there was a vote in june that far as johnson one but diminished his standing. of course. well now they're going to meet on monday to choose a new executive, and then probably most people believe there will be another push to change those rules. but then it's still not clear that a, that will work. and that be,

if there is a vote of no confidence that boys johnson lose, it is that he will immediately step down, given the stubbornness that he's displayed over the course of wednesday, if not longer going back into the past. and so really, there are, there are some hoof now quit who is saying that this is damaging both the policy, but also britain's reputation internationally. boris johnson is saying that it would not be democratic for him to go right now, and that he needs to be in charge so that there's not a summer of chaos getting to grips with things like the cost of living crisis and so on. but if he hasn't got the people supporting him in cabinet in parliament, perhaps that's wishful thinking. and in bye bye, thank you very much. so adding the spoke to leon m riley, our former ministerial aid and their communications adviser to the u. k. government under the last hip i ministers, he says bar, it's johnson, more faith increasing pressure. the longer he resist calls to step down. i spin an

extraordinary day twists and turns it pretty much every hour. we've had a number of high profile resignations from senior ministers. we've had boyish johnson looking like he's on the verge of resigning and then now looks like he's digging in. and that sparse johnson's character, he is a politician who is very stubborn, who will fight to the death. and that's clearly the strategy that we're gonna see over the coming 24 hours if it gets that far. yeah, he's taken initiative by sacking michael. gov who has a large following in parliament. and that could either be to his detriment or to his favor. and i do think that we are now entering a crucial period of the year of the term or that we've seen over the past day. what bush johnson is, or as a track record, as anal as an election winner. he defies the odds. he got bricks, it over the line he got elected as a, a conservative mer of london, which is, which is rare and obviously took an 80 seat majority in the most recent general election. so they're looking at someone who can win elections,

but they're also looking at someone who is damaged goods. his reputation has taken a battering over the past 12 months, 18 months. he is not the asset that he used to be in conservative m. p. 's will be looking alternately at their own chances of reelection, is that gonna happen under parish johnson? or they're more likely to be re elected under a new leadership. our other top, sorry this our, the number of people experiencing hunger rows dramatically last year, according to a major food secures you. port released by the united nations is wanting of a global hunger catastrophe. in the coming months. it says a 128000000 people were affected by hunger last year. that's almost 10 percent of the global population. children are particularly vulnerable. 22 percent of those under the age of 5 have suffered from stunted growth over 6 and a half percent, or 45000000 of suffered from wasting of a deadly form of malnutrition. climate change the pandemic mass. migration of all

been blame for pushing up global hunger levels, but that's only expected to get worse. and then as the added complexity of the war and ukraine, which is the global food prices surged to record levels, are diplomatic, added to james bay's as more from you and headquarters in new york. this report has come from 5 different un agencies who produce this annual report. they say some of it is about funding and clearly the u. n. doesn't have the money to solve this problem. in fact, the well food programs had cut back on some of the supplies. it sends to people and food supplies. it gives to people. and some of the countries where people are the most needy things are likely to get worse. david beasley is that the well food program, he says it's a looming catastrophe. there is the danger of a global recession. he said, what you've had here is a mix of things. you've had cobit conflict and climate come together. conflicts like those in afghanistan and ethiopia. and then in recent months, you've had ukraine, which is made the food problems worst,

made the problems with vegetable oil and fertilizer. worse, it's a very, very grim situation. remember that the world was supposed to be following something called the sustainable development goals. and one of the targets of that was to end hunger have 0. these figures that are so high down to 0 by 2030, just 8 years away from now. and actually the world had made significant progress on this. reducing the number of people affected by hunger until 2015 since then it's gone up. and in the last year it's gone up a great deal. but i think they know that this is going to be very, very hard to turn around because the figures going in the wrong way and the going very much very fast in the wrong direction or inferior people. they're also facing higher food prices at fuel is also on the rise this after rushes invasion of ukraine and drought in countries northwest means that more people at dependent on expensive wish. and poets then harder has the story. these for the uprising in

2011, syria was able to feed itself. but years of war, and now a severe drought has made this nation a net importer of wheat over the past 2 to 3 years. as the whole country has been hit by a crippling drought that its impacts are felt mostly in the north east, which is traditionally the bread basket of the country. let alone areas that are in the northwest of the country or regime held areas. the rise in global prices sparked by rushes invasion of ukraine is threatening food supplies to many people in syria. the country is among the 10 most food insecure nations in the world. 12000000 people struggled to get enough food. many of them live in the opposition controlled north. doesn't allow thought that we have limited incomes and yet we have to rely on expensive import the tweet. because much of the land in this region

is mountainous. we can't grow much wheat and lands where we can be grown are not accessible. vast areas were set on fire by government forces during the conflict and irrigation channels were destroyed. and even though there is now less violence, front lines still exist. and all that ariba, we are close to the regime position whose many people can't reach their land because it is dangerous. humanitarian organizations, as well as the local authorities, are helping farmers to produce more food. but it's costly to plant crops. so is transporting the harvest due to high fuel prices. fuel is also needed to pump ground water to make up for what is being described a serious worst drought in 70 years. and the opposition held area noise production won't be enough. them as in this year 30000 hector's were cultivated, but the low rainfall and high production costs her farmers. a ton of wheat cost

$450.00 and we will have to import more than $30000.00 tons this year. the average annual amount of we production before the war was 3700000 tons. this decline to 1800000 tons between 2015. and 2019 harvests are shrinking, and farmers are fighting to survive. and with more than half of serious people already hungry, the agricultural crisis couldn't come at a worse time than other shows either on the programs i'm natasha butler in paris were real workers. we won't strike demanding bet to pay to help them cope with the rising cost of living. in the man accused of killing 7 people at a july 4th parade appears in court to face charges of 1st degree murder. ah .
