2:03 pm
she has a plan. it was perhaps slightly naive hurley on to suggest that somehow you get through without there being some form of handout. i would expect very early on that she will come out with a large package. and that is designed to solve this problem that will be criticized many people say there are problems with it. energy costs are also driving another urgent in box priority inflation. in july 2021. inflation in the u. k was just 2 percent. now it is 10 point one percent and one forecast predicts that next year it will rise above 22 percent. households are seeing the price of basic staples like bread and milk increase at a rate not experienced since the $19.00 seventy's less trust. looked at the current economic environment and said it's time for the tax cuts. it's time to free up and liberalize the individual and allow a growth to flourish through the government for a while, taking less of our money, potentially even taking on some debt. for me that a perfectly sensible economic message. northern island is another immediate issue.

2:05 pm
intends to put her mark on a job. she's fought so hard to win, but she inherits a portfolio of problems and challenges, perhaps unprecedented since world war 2 pull brennan al jazeera downing street. and that's bringing jonah, how now his life ross in london, a hello there, joe. now where is the tory party and at the moment our members fully behind their new ladle is trust at. well, boris johnson, the outgoing prime minister in his speech here before leaving downing street, exhorted the party to rally behind her to unite behind their new leader. the news just didn't incidentally, is that the queen has just accepted force johnson's resignation. and initially of course, the party will unite behind loose trust, but remember, this is a party that is booted out its previous 3 leaders, including or is johnson of course, remember as well that in the leadership contest,
2:06 pm
this trust one, the support of only around a 3rd of conservative party empties and then when the contest moved on to the conservative party members, she won by the narrowest margin, yet securing the support of just 57 percent of those members. she will note that the celebrations with her team on monday night will be all she gets of a political honeymoon. the party will wait to see how she composes government, how she tackles the energy and cost of living crisis ready, perhaps potentially to move on her as well. if i think she's going to fail before the next election. and jonah, as you mentioned, trust certainly has a lengthy to do list, given those challenges, facing the u. k, which is also finding some major tax cuts. tell us about that. she is, we expect within a month or so, something like a new budget will be announced containing a brand new to the economic program from the trust team. she's going to be

n a honda in southern ukraine. it has 6 reactors, and it usually generates only half of ukraine's nuclear power. the months of attacks heightened the risk of damaging the plants electricity grid. radioactive material could be released if the plans cooling system fails with unreliable backup generators. under the worst case scenario, explosions could also destroy the plant, so called react to containment structure. that would allow high radiation levels to escape into the atmosphere, making nearby areas dangerous to live in the decade. robert kelly is a former director of the international atomic energy agency. he says, both sides want to take the plant in an operating condition so they can use it after the war. this is a great big electricity generating plant and they're selling electricity to various customers. those are the lines that were damaged early on. there's also a smaller line bringing electricity in from a plant, and i can't find it,
2:13 pm
or some kind of a coal or oil plant. that is, is keeping the plant going, given the cooling system is going to plan, also generates its own electricity. and so one of the things is happening right now is it's generating electricity to keep itself cool. and they're also supplying energy to the town. they're of never know are so i think the situation being a little over blown right now as to what the seriousness is. also, if there were some sort of meltdown of this plant, it's no worldwide disaster and that's history and over, over hiking there. so only a couple of sources that they can use the outside, which they say they're going to reconnect their own electricity generation, which they've been doing since march and the diesel generators, which is definitely a last resort. what we're seeing play out here is this is the, maybe the final stage of the energy war. both sides want to capture this plant intact for after the war and the war is result. and both sides are trying to make
