this is al jazeera and here are the top stories. now. britain's prime minister bars johnson has bouts a pressure and announced he'll step down as soon as his party elect a new leader. he comes after 2 days of high drama. it's sort more than 50 members of his government resign following a series of scandals. but even his decision to stay honest, caretaker prime minister has angered some in his party. it is clearly now the will of the parliamentary, conservative party that there should be a new leader of that party. and apple, a new prime minister. and i agree with the grey brady, the chairman of our back bench. and please that the process of choosing that new leader should begin now, and the time table will be announced next week. and dive of today. point you the cabinet to serve as i will until the new leader is in place. the former minneapolis

this officer convicted last year for the murder of george floyd, has been sentenced to more than 20 years in prison on separate federal charges. there it shaven was found guilty of violating floyd's civil rights during his fatal arrest in may 2020. his already serving $22.00 and a half years in that minnesota prison for murder, shaving was filmed. kneeling on george floyd's neck for more than 9 minutes. those are the headlines for the news continues. heron, artist, era, after inside story to stay with us. ah. a controversial undefined boris johnson has resigned. the british prime minister clung to power,

but failed to retain his party support. who will replace him and what sort of leadership does the u. k. need at this time? this is, it's, i sort ah, hello mark is that program on him? or on con boris johnson's out? the british prime minister, held on for as long as he could. but a series of scandals followed by mutiny and then a domino of resignations left them with no other choice than to step down from what he calls the best job in the world. the great public services. and to that new leda, i say whether he or she may be, i say i will give you as much support as i can. and to you, the british public. i know that there will be many people who are relieved. 7

and perhaps quite if you will also be disappointed, and i want you to know how sad i am to be giving up the best job in the world. but then the brakes will begin in the moment, but 1st, a jonah hole looks back. i brush johnson's time in office, not vote for us. he led his party to a landslide 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 johnson has no say salvation. he has, there is no moral leadership, but for him it was always about becoming my men, sir. not about being payments. 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 sort of in charge through all these things going along all these, all this noise, all this commotion as the person with the great i, dale, the wit, the witticism. and that is what appeals to him for his johnson. the corona virus pandemic was a perfect storm of crises and calles that blew 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 under performing 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, dominant cummings, described the prime ministers 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 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 bullington . 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 fire. these then, with the qualities he brought to politics as mayor of london as foreign secretary, and then his prime minister entitlement dishonesty and indifferent. this is really the 1st time in his life where he's ever actually been held to account for anything he's always been don't. he's always been excused, is 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, the. let's bring it, i guess from london, joe. and he's a political commentator and a former media adviser for the conservative party from east poland, tim bailey, professor of politics, a queen, mary university of london, and also in london. matthew goodwin. he's a professor of politics at the university of kent, a warm welcome to all, let's begin in london with joe la. is this the end of one of the most chaotic premier ships of recent strict approaching that question? absolutely, technically, it isn't quite the end because we still don't know sitting here this afternoon, are quite exactly what mr. johnson's plans are for the next 2 or 3 months. we know he intends to stay on effectively and i can take

a role in his own position as p. m. but we don't really know where the conservative party is going to move against him and try and bring about cricket demise. a quick exit from down the street, but as to your point about a chaotic period, i think this has been an exceptionally chaotic period. unfortunately, having followed the fortunes of the conservative party for very many years. now, it does have a guy that has been prone to these periods of self reflection and, and certainly just to one side and then have to run the fractious leadership election processes. but i have to say, having really observed very many of them, certainly at the last 30 years this, this one is right out. the air is being one of the most remarkable, and we haven't even gotten when you get closer. yes, timbo, in east 12 things seem to be happening simultaneously. here one is boris johnson, buying himself some time by taking on this idea that he could be the caretaker

promised, or perhaps even hoping that he might be able to come up with a solution. and let's face it. he's done things like this before where he's come out with sticky situations and come out on top. but there are people within his own party that are gunning for his blood to day. which one do you think will prevail? well, i think or so got a chance, so i'm staying on off some kind of can take a period. i think it's probably more like, you know, he'll be able to stay as a cat. i think though it's understandable. so something policy wanting to go now. i think the events of the last 40 hours, of course, an awful lot. the problem for them is exactly how they will be able to do that. he will have to be persuaded to go immediately, and if he's not persuaded to resign immediately himself, it's very difficult. see exactly how they would be able to remove it. they would

have to presumably, and some kind of injury made the queen could then appointed prime minister with that the queen into politics. i'm not sure that something the conservative party wants to do. so. i think it force johnson wants to be, can take a prime minister for the next 2 or 3 months, then he's very likely to be able to fulfill that wrong. how well, here is another matter. it doesn't seem to be a natural fit for someone who you just want to as well. look after the shot while you're getting on with other stuff. matthew goodwin also in london, nearly 50 more than 50 m. p. 's resign. people are surprised in britain resigning from positions that actually never even heard of. this is like unprecedented portions and didn't seem to get the message within the 1st 24 hours of all of this . when richie 2nd charge of it resigned, he must have got the message now. but why is he then trying to stay in power even if i can take a l a and m p said to me this morning. i think one of the things that

surprised everybody over the last 40 hours is the extent to which one so. so ching opened up in bars, johnson's alma, everybody flooded in to try and take advantage of it. and such was the sentiment within the conservative party. the sort of disillusionment and the despair both johnston's leadership also in their. ready performance in the opinion, polls recent action to face policy coherence, a trickle became a flawed, and that flood became overwhelming. so johnson, you know, even in his resignation, speech today clearly fails. he has the stop. he has alluded to one cause the instinct, he feels that the game is being being raked against him and that many of the m. p 's really are that positions to his selection, victor in 2019 that's his particular view of the,

of the current situation. so i think actually, you know, his desire to stay his caretaker until we have a new prime minister. my instinct actually is that is genuine. i think johnson does, can, can a great deal about the war and ukraine. i think he has a great deal about finishing some of the things he's, he's started, but this is the end. i mean, this is the end of his primary ship and it's been a very turbulent one. it's been a consequential one. it's been a divisive one, been an incompetent one, but it's also being really one that will go down in the history books is having a profound impact on the country and it's future to another. so you nodding along in agreement that what matthew goodwin was saying, yes, it may well be the case that boris on isn't, does have certain issues that he does care about the war in ukraine was mentioned. but it was a chaotic premiership. he did a get into many political scraps. many times, many of those probably were handled badly. he seemed to your. busy person,

the yes may have cared about certain issues, but he was much more about the infighting in the scrapping in the political survival or the went along with being prime minister rather than actually leading a country. that's what a lot of people have been saying to me today. germany simply without argument when i think when full is done to the back foot, as he said frequently has been. and often because of his own inability to like confront. some of the criticisms in the 1st instance and, and be straight forward with the rest of his party with the general public. i think yes, he has ended up looking like somebody who's been desperate to a dis, a preserve his place simply in terms of wanting to exercise political power. and that's not really a good look. i slightly take issue with some of the commentary at the start of this piece when your reporter was summing up. here is his personality. i mean, yes, clearly he's a man who is not in any way,

a straightforward personality for politics, but that's a lot to do. with why he has been very popular and, and it goes to the heart of his career. but i think he was supposed to be the non politicians politician. now, to certain extent, if you let somebody like that, you don't expect them to be a brilliant executive if you like, what seems to have gone wrong. and i'm for the, let me, i'm not was a was, if you like quite it tends to support a bar is just my thought he was absolutely essential to getting back sit down. but i do have some concerns about his leadership. however, i was reassured by people who were close to him when he was the mayor of london. but as long as he had the right team around him, the fact that he may be a bit of a dealer and i would have been overcome by the fact that he had this sort of strong supportive structure around to. now that seems to just not have been there right from the start of his spirit number 10. and so far as it was, we saw, you know, really early on. and his leadership very senior advise is leading number 10,

and that is not helped him. timbo jo, another use the word curriculum there, some would say entitlement might be way better word to describe barbara johnson. what are your thoughts? well, there's no doubt that he had a lot of people and he won the 2019 election precisely because he appealed to the right people at the right time. it has to be se, if you actually look at our sons polling, he was never poking right across the country, but he was popular masset among the actual coalition. he managed to build in $29.00 team to came in from the seats that often voted labor for that switch to the conservatives. i think the problem for him, of course, came when those voters began to tire off a party gauge, i think. but also of course, he like the government as a whole is taken

a big economy. we should get so fixated on personality or strong sense of the problems of the conservative party, or indeed his problems all to do with any fools in his personality. there are also to do the very difficult situation. the government is facing when it comes to inflation and the data possible recession. so yes, force johnson, the charismatic politician? no more is johnson didn't always appeal to absolutely everybody in this country. he appealed to the people that the conservative party needed him to appeal to back in 2019. but once he's reputation among better began to fade, i think it was almost inevitable. release his party, which was always a about him. as you suggested, turned on him. i look for alternative matthew, good when it's almost impossible and to mention that there he does have a force of personality is very strong personality. it's almost impossible trying to

both from his role as the leader of the conservative party and prime minister. his personality almost the reason then for is doubtful. yeah, i mean for some, some really and he has himself to blame for his downfall. he made a number of unforced errors during his premiership. he surrounded himself with, i think people didn't bring out the best in his government. in his administration, he made a number of areas during the pandemic. he never really defined key policy blanks like leveling off the country. the file to take advantage of practice is the comic strategy was confused at worst from the contradictory, and he fell out with many influential people within his own party. and i think it's clear to everybody today that he really was unsuited for

high office. but there's an open question here going forward, which is about find the answer to which is which other conservative can actually hold together. the alliance devices, the orse, johnson, mobilized in 2019, might be the case that somebody is going to emerge. you can do that. but it might also be the case that actually only somebody with the kind of prisma the johnson had, or for him, nigel for arch was able to reach into those cycle right. or industrial working class that tim mentioned. and we don't really know. and if the conservative party cannot hold the lines together, it's very difficult if not impossible, to see how the conservatives when the next election, which is less than 2 years away. actually, that's a question that was about off all 3 of you. so thank you for bringing up a let me start with you matthew goodman. we'll do. we'll start with you. as you put

the question up. it's not a failure of boris johnson ism. this is simply a failure of boris johnson sat right. thompson was never an ism, i mean if you compare johnson to tony blair or margaret thatcher or some of the other great transformative prime ministers in britain, british history, john johnson had no coherent agenda. he had no serious things around him. he had intellectual framework for what is called the project project was essentially broached johnson the man and a few policies attached to him. and that really explains, you know, how quickly it came crashing down and why it came crushing down there was no coherent, long term plan in place. even in the last hours of the crisis with lodging around trying to find tax cuts and policies that you can also right people. and so that's really how it all i would all came down and i think now you're going to have to

offer a great series of question, which is, what kind of policy do they want to be in the midst of the most serious cost of living crisis. is country space for 50 years, and that question is a really difficult one to answer 10 by the same question to you. is this a failure of boris johnson? and was there indeed even a burst johnson is no, i think that's absolutely right about that. i mean, there was never a kind of coherence to force johnston's ideology. i mean, i think he's a book stand, a conservative in this entity, wanted low taxes. he wanted a school state and he won't say it's a case of expanding under control. he's problem, of course was the pandemic and in the consensus a promise, the actually 2019 didn't really allow for that. and then going forward, i think must absolutely right. you got a real issue here because wall it will take to win over the. busy conservative party in parliament and into concerts and party members may not be well,

voters as a whole of those phones as part of that electron coalition that we've been talking about favor, it's all very well to talk about tax cuts. most people favor tax cuts alone. economists might already know the solution when, when you're facing the inflationary spike. but of course, while people start talking as a, for example, one of the reason we are any source and we are running out of time. and i do want to get to everybody and i have a couple of questions very quickly. a book style you conservative is what some builders use to describe or something. do you agree with that? well, to the extent of being a conservative doesn't in itself infer a specific ideal it g. i mean, both the 2 main parties in britain boasted by our particular electoral system of big coalitions. there are conservatives who believe in a small state and cutting taxes. there are those who want to spend quite

a lot of money on, particularly with the leveling up agenda, and that's just looking at the financial agenda. i mean, i think that he successfully sat so somewhere in the middle of one of those things . and that's one of his, the reasons for his earlier successful is that people couldn't quite pin him down. they didn't really know. was he a libertarian? was the a liberal, was your social conservative. right. and i mean he and he's raw, that kind of wandering around between all of those polarities. and i think that goes to the heart of why we haven't had a coherent, consistent a policy agenda. politics has often been described as sports for unfit people. ah, which was always may be lava. yeah, let's take a sports man for her. i'll begin with you joe. if you are a blessing, woman, who would you be for your money now? as the next leader, the conservative party. and they did that already. i think that and often when you look at conservative leadership elections, that it's not,

not the most obvious candidate, somebody is able to pull these different factions together. is the person that emerges. i think that he has it has the benefit of having been in favor, breaks it, but he has a very interesting personality. and of course now he holds a major one of the most major offices after the pharmacy. he has the most important job in governments of interest and see how he despatches that so the next few weeks . but i mean there will be very many runners. right. and so it's quite so early tonight that call not be quite early 10, but i'm not sure. anyway, i think it probably depends on you guys that i think it pays call unite to stop news trucks going through. and she has a really good chance because she is quite popular among the membership. i would also get a job. it is done, most of the jobs actually in government and just printed off

a pair of hands really. so it was once a month to recover what about, you know, if you i think i'm going to watch closely of the next few days to see what ideas and thoughts they come out with. i see strengths and weaknesses with all of those. i mean, if you take, for example, richie so, you know, you know, a lot of conservative activists would argue, you know, why should they might lead us some of the designs that over the biggest. and since 950 c book started job, a people might say, well, you know, they don't write is what they would say. it says disloyalty. you look at the things are way, i think conservative activist again is tim says when it goes to the membership, they might know like, well to funding on the prime minister who does remain quite popular among the grass roots. i think it's, i think, i'm not exactly sure who is going to emerge, but i think the water question, which is the, what is the type of host bracket conservative isn't that's going to emerge. you

know, what's the grey strategy? what's a productivity strategy? what's the, what's, what they're going to do in inflation, what they're going to do on it and trade agreements for the rest of the world. you know, these are massive issues. i can't think of a prime minister made with the exception. roger in 79 who had such a daunting injury coming into power. i mean these are huge issues, all of them. so whoever gets the job of it is in some respects of poison charles, a poison charlotte that somebody has to take on at some point. i want to thank all our guest, john adler, tim bell and matthew goodwin. and i want to thank you as well for watching. now you can see the program again, any time by visiting our website out there a dot com for further discussion. go to our facebook page, that's facebook dot com, forward slash ha inside story. and you can also join the conversation on twitter handle is at asia inside story from me around con,
