in politics, no one is remotely indispensable. boris johnson steps down after clinging on to par for days despite a flood of resignation. by ministers and m. p. 's. ah, people blue and heckle boris johnston outside. 10 downing street johnny out his resignation speech. ah, the whole rahman you're watching over there alive. my headquarters here in doha, also coming up under the prisoners on the run in nigeria. after i saw members broke into a jail though, the capital of buddha and human rights watch accuses the taliban of committing atrocities in eastern afghanistan, including summary executions. ah,

welcome to the pro and british prime minister boris johnson. it's finally bowed to pressure and announced that he's stepping down as leader of the conservative party . it came after 2 days of high drama, during which nearly 60 members of his government resigned. but johnson is remaining defiant and deli, and he says that he'll sailors caretaker prime minister until the party chooses a successor. i regret and not to being successful in those arguments. of course, it's painful and not to be able to see through so many ideas and projects myself. but as we seen at westminster at the herd instinct is powerful when the herd moves, it moves and by friends in politics, no one is remotely indispensable and are brilliant and darwinian system will produce another leader. equally committed to taking this country forward. while the name barbara joins us now from 10 downing street sir, in london, and

a great deal has happened since that speech was made just a few hours ago. you know, chris, i was talking to a british diplomats her just a little while ago. that's right. well, learn just in the last her hour or so. number 10 down the street has put out a statement saying for that term for is johnson told cabinets that government won't seek to implement the new policies, while the conservative party chooses a new leader. and he stretch over his administration with him as he been to rim prime minister on, even though he says he was step down his party leader. he wants to be a caretaker prime minister that his administration won't bring a new or fiscal policies, for example, only concentrating on delivering the agenda that he was elected on, or that is or not towards things like right sit and the current bill going through a parliament scrapping the northern ireland protocol that crucial piece of

legislation, which is so contentious between britain and the european union. so i think there are already or has already talk about unhappiness in what he had said in the last a few hours or because you like m was he is, is deputy he primary service dominic rob, somebody who could in fact him step in and act as a caretaker prime minister barak johnson says that he still, he wants to do what he can to make sure the mandate gets down as he's been putting it just and it is so anything present the, the, our leadership contestant weaver. we don't exactly know about the time table, he said in his resignation speech earlier on that he will be announcing a time table next week will already some potential candidates are putting the wheels in motion. we're hearing that richie soon act. the former chancellor has chosen a central london ho as a temporary campaign headquarters. most cabinet members have been tight lipped here

in downing street in the last few hours, but yet vera lots and lots of questions they'll be asking themselves and did a me a great deal of reaction from within the conservative party and beyond. and obviously, you know, a great deal of shouting on the main road beyond 10 downing street people wants to get their voice is heard that the opposition to making sure that they're heard as well. absolutely. kiss dharma, the opposition labor leader, has said that it's not acceptable that bars johnson stays on for any considerable length of time. and if he tries to, he says labor will try to force of boats of no confidence in parliament overwrote. although that would require a considerable number of conservative m p 's to back his party. and even if they get that, it's not so clear that that would trigger a general election, which is what a labor a saying the country needs. now john major, the pre, the former conservative prime minister, who is a well known opponent of boris johnson, who,

who thinks very badly of him said victim, he's written to the 1922 committee of bat, bench mpg that wrote to the chair of that committee saying that it, sir, it's an unsustainable for boys johnson to stay right now as suggesting he could damage the country, saying that his cabinet colleagues won't be able to quote, restrain him. and not everybody goes that far. but him, a lot of conservative m. p. 's have been voicing concern throughout thursday, particularly some of those and ministers who, who resigned that boys. johnson is being stubborn and that by staying on he will further damage the parties, prospects, as well as the countries. and there are press reports here victim the 1922 executive wants the conservative party to narrow down the field of candidates for leader to just to buy the summer recess. so 21st of july, and then

a new leader to be in position by september. others think boys johnson is trying to hold on until the party conference in october? so still lots of questions, a forum kind of the mother, clarissa and 10 downing street. thank you. well, bars, johnson has often made divisive and controversial decisions during his time. as the case. prime minister jone health has more did not vote for us. he led his party to a law slide election victory in 2019. but boris johnson was to be undone. both by events in which he conspired, and also by his own character flaws that critics say made him unfit for high office or still some has no social lesson. he has, there is no moral leadership, but for him it was always about becoming priming, sir. not about being hyman's that and he, i think he knows himself well enough that he knows that he does not have the skills that you need to be a successful prime minister. sonya panell was a reporter working alongside johnson in the brussels bureau of the daily telegraph

. she describes a man with a lot of the child in him who enjoyed getting into and out of scrapes. a man drawn to calles and the chaos means that he can. so when urged through these things going wrong, leave all this noise. all this commotion asked the person with great i dale the wit witticism, and that is what appeals to him for his johnson. the corona virus pandemic was a perfect storm of cry. seasons calles that blue attention away from other problems . despite his promise to get brakes it done, britain remains mud and dispute with its biggest trading part of the european union . the economy is underperforming. the cost of living, rising health and education systems faltering success with the vaccine program helped obscure johnson's own indecision and delays in following scientific advice

that contributed to one of the highest death tolls. in the developed world, former chief advisor, dominic cummings, described the prime minister's leadership as erratic in decisive distracted. nobody could find a way around the problem of the problem is that just like a shopping trolley smashing from one side to the other, the shopping trolley metaphor would quickly be seized upon by the opposition. so he's doing what he always does. crushing over to the other side of the aisle, boris johnson learned early to be self sufficient in a family of competitive siblings with a mother who suffered ill health and a father who was frequently absent. at the elite british boarding school eton he came to believe ordinary rules did not apply to him. in the infamous bullying and drinking club at oxford, the outward persona of a jovial buffoon, disguised and in an ambition for power. and as both a journalist for the times newspaper and a minister in opposition,

johnson was accused of lying and fired. these then, with a qualities he brought to politics as mayor of london as foreign secretary, and then his prime minister entitlement dishonesty and indifference. this is really the 1st time in his life where he's ever, she'd been held to account where the thing he's always been. so she's always been excused. there's always been reasons made for him. for his 5 behaviors. there was wide support for his handling of the war in ukraine, but johnson never recovered from the scandal known as party gate. he received a police fine for attending a lockdown party in downing street, making him the 1st british prime minister to break the law while in office. a civil service report into a string of similar gatherings described a failure of leadership. eventually 148 of his own m. p. 's, 40 percent of the parliamentary party turned against him. in a vote of no confidence. maurice johnson limped on for

a bit again. but the reasons to forgive him had run out. journal al jazeera for brandon is in london with more embarrassed. johnson's resignation. speech people are dissecting exactly how far is johnson went about getting his south diamond street. the speech that he gave it was yours, it was shop. it didn't have a huge amount of personal reflection or culpability. it described those who i was with him as being eccentric and lamented the fact that he not been able to dissuade them from that eccentricity. join him is one of the commonest as strong as critics for a long time to vice ellwood empty, which i would. what do you make of how the prime minister, well described his own predicament and on his departure speech? you know, it's been a dramatic week and politics from it's crazy this week that i've ever experienced in all my time. and i'm please, we've got here today, but we should have been here months ago and recognizing that force johnson was not

going to allow us to wait the next election that was approved in the local election results in the bi election as well in the polling to we were constantly fire fighting, we weren't able to get onto the big picture issues and provide that vision that the britain actually requires. and i'm afraid there wasn't any sense of contrition. there wasn't any sense of apology in that speech itself. but we are where we are, we draw a line, we now need to have that important leadership contests and have that quickly efficiently. so we can actually choose a new leader and start to regroup and rebuild that trust with the british people that we've hemorrhage over the last few months. a lot of concern, i put it probably mildly when i describe it that way about the fact that forest johnson is going to stay in danny street for potentially up to 3 months. i mean dominic cuttings. well, no nemesis or the prime minister said the premise of course carnage if he's allowed to stay. jo major, a former conservative prime minister said it's simply not really on. i don't know where you stand on that. yeah, lots of us coming in there. i think it's been so hard and actually coming to this

point of getting bores don't design down it. the question is certainly arisen. what happens next? how long will he actually be in power? i suspect we're going to see an expedited leadership contest. it's in 2 homes, as you may know, 1st one is and piece juice. 2 candidates and we can probably do that pretty swiftly over the next $5.00 to $10.00 days. those 2 names then slid across to the potty membership. that can probably be done in a just a month or so. question is, is whether you then allow boys johnson to hold on to power during that time. i hope we won't see, as you saw the united states, donald trump, to forget what he was doing with potentially things on iran and so on. we won't get out here because we have the mechanisms to prevent that. but ultimately, yes, there are concerns because of trust is whether we should have an injure him, prime minister, go to the queen and say, we got somebody else to just stand in during this time. well, jolts his resignation has left the public with mixed feelings. i think he's on the, by little mistakes, but he's a lot of good things as well. first western economy to come out the pandemic lease

to lou brakes, which we did long term been fair. the country, so in the sand got on the bicycles, he unobvious replacement. you then probably push me ish. he should have been gone a long time. overstate is welcome. by a long, long module. i was originally a fan that i think for a long time now, the rising speed on the wall and i think it was getting very desperate. i think we've got to look back to cut off of it. chasing a global basis. is 100 percent shameless, complete shambles of infant ah, one of the days of that he is now and more than $400.00 prisoners still on the run in nigeria after an attack on a detention facility that was claimed by i saw that a members of the armed group are amongst those who escaped under still at large. that's left people in the surrounding community and in the nearby capital of future

scared amid just reports now from could j authority, say the operation to re arrest, escaped, convict is yielding results. but it's the admission by the defense minister about iceland, ball quorum commanders jailed here that shocked many nigeria is hello for her. the tension and then eventually with the statement is causing panic because secure to assessments, show urban areas have become targets for armed groups. the that could be something big common this could do that something that anyone to have in to have that initial to ill at that we did muslim of security prison that basically it looked he does it go daddy's we gotta open up this. i love you said more than 870 inmates is keep doing. dozens of gunmen armed with explosive rockets and guns

stones, the could your prison hundreds have been re arrested. last night, nigeria more senior general announced a major attack on the capital, had been forwarded only for isaac to launch my 15th break. it adds to existence, the character greg fletcher's kidnappings on robert, which i've been on the rise and with doesn't supply so quite as including the groups main board maker now on the move. people yeah, asking the security forces to step on the assault and quit. your prison isn't the 1st many of the detention centers have been targeted in the past 5 years, resulting in hundreds of hearted criminals. goin free security analysts are worried that the quadratic may not be the last. how many trees algebra could you? nigeria? well, we've gone, sir. lanka has raised its interest rates to the highest levels in 20 years. the, basically, the weight is now at 15.5 percent. sir lincolns have been protesting for months, not against the governments humping of the countries was economic crisis in 70

years. the government says it's trying to get a handle on spiking inflation. michelle fernandez has more from the capital. and what you see behind me are basically religious touch on a invoking blessings on for buddhist monks who have decided to launch a foster to the death. this is until such time present roger boxer steps down. now the buddhist monks that you see around me essentially have come together. they represent all the different groups of the buddhist clergy here in sri lanka, or they have been basically agitating a one week ago they rode to present got our be roger boxer, presenting a series of proposals. they said that they put him on notice that if our these steps want implemented in one week that they would come in to colombo and basically stage or sit in and not move until he leaves. they said the roger pox of family has single handedly destroyed this country doing even worse than the leader of the

tumbled tigers that the government was battling for over 26 years. they say that even though the president, when he took off, talked about the support of the buddhist clergy and the sort of a buddhist and, and the, the strength that brought him to power. he now does not heed. essentially what the have asked for. this is the last and foremost history. we have discussed read them, we out and in writing, we have tried to had become forums and meeting with them. and the buddhist clergy is not the only group that is calling for the exit of resident roger parker. we have the catholic priest, we have people, we have artists all saying that he needs to go in order for sri lanka to pick up the pieces and rebuild. today of the central bank governor announcing that interest rates have been up to once again. and essentially,

that means higher prices for people that are already struggling with skyrocketing prices, with no fuel with no essentials. and basically an absolute dilemma as to how to put food on the table. no rush were threatening to use its being to the un security council to shut a critical a corridor to northern syria. the security house is expected to vote on whether to reauthorize it. he's later on thursday. at least 3000000 people rely on humanitarian deliveries made through the crossing. so the consumer has more from a stumble. 4 and a half 1000000 people are internally displaced in syria. most of them live in refugee camps here in the northwest. they depended food medicine and other places that are brought in a via bubble have a border crossing with turkey. livia, these boxes contain rice, she'll get annoyed. none of these are within our means. we rely on these containers

. however, damascus. delving international 80 opposition held areas violates its sovereignty. it ones who material relief to routed through government health territory. hell have coughing for robert stuffing. it will be a disaster. and every sixer and including medicine, food and education, we urge the international community keep politics and monetary need that separates issues. many believe rushes threat is in retaliation for western countries, providing support to crane during its months long invasion doctor's fear. what's coming off with the russian pressure to aid would create a crisis that would force more syrians to be displaced and die while trying to survive. more than 4600 you and trucks, mostly carrying food have used the crossing in the 1st 6 months of 2020 to john which will just be shipping stim chrome. so the u. n's bible, how

a corridor is the best. it's transparent, safe and cost effective. none of the alternatives are better if it's closed, even preventable deaths may not be stopped. the un estimates 13400000 syrians needed assistance last year, up from 11100000 in 2020. must not, with some serious are imported from government controlled area or here in turkey, but as well as valleys and foxes for because of the war in ukraine, it is only compelling to prices for millions of people who are dependent on international a solo, l, to sera assemble the human rights watch is accusing television forces of committing atrocities in eastern afghanistan and operations targeting. and i still splinter group report says the abuses were committed in the 2 eastern provinces of kuna and anger. ha. now the organization accuses the taliban of carrying out of duction and summary executions of alleged members of the islamic state of quote,

the i s k p to gain any further ground in afghanistan. but unfortunately, there's adopting counterterrorism tactics, which are very likely to lead to more revenge and more recruitment by i s k p because whole communities have been targeted in these raids and that's likely just to feel resentment and grievances in those communities. what's more important here is it's very similar to what we saw with the revenge killings of the africa national security forces, which we documented after the telephone take over as well. it's more that the telephone authorities do not hold their own men accountable, but basically told them we had quoted as saying if you find someone who belongs to or supports i s k p, the some state group, we just kill them. and with that message goes out and there's no accountability them. this is the results noise in the u. k. l requesting access to the bulletin fire on that killed veteran out there agenda showing. well, actually, the firm representing her family has asked to interview the israeli army soldiers
