positions kweisi quite tang who's has been made chancellor of executor. and so ella braverman britton's new home secretary let's us any now as the u. k is that new prime minister faces her 1st prime ministers. questions? good. thank you miss the speaker. come out warmly. welcome the prime minister to her 1st p and q. and it's also mine a auto pay. the prime minister said that british workers need to put in more gra bay and that they are lacking in skill and application. and she also wants to take away the basic words right here in my constituency. the latest speakers from the cummins library show that children over 7000, our souls are living in child poverty. i'm not 68 percent of those

houses have worked in parents. so the prime limits that believe that thousands of work in parents on no income in my community should just puts in more graphs read. i could watch like the eligible lady on the prime minister's question. and what i am determined to do as prime minister is to make sure we have an economy with high wages and high skilled jobs. and the way, the way i will achieve that is through reducing taxes on people across all country . a basting economic growth that is the way that we will make sure we get the investment and the jobs that people design. i. i want to warmly congratulate by right to vote. ruble friends on becoming the 3rd woman priming

with. 7 restaurant to my constituency, a bond it got in touch with me to say i was struggling to find an energy supplier. and the quite they had to hold of showed that they would be paying a 600 percent increase in that bill to $320000.00 pounds. they called survivor, will she ensure have planned to tackle the energy price prices helps businesses in the hospitality sector which i'll communion spanish. so my well my right honorable friend is upset. he writes, the hospitality industry is vital and i will make sure in our energy plan that will help support businesses. people with the immediate prior crisis, as well as making sure there are long term supplies available will help businesses

as well as helping individual household. okay. we don't come to leave of the opposition. give saga. yes. thank you mister speaker, can i congratulate the prime minister on her appointment when when she said, when she said in a leadership campaign that she was against winful taxes, did she mean it? i well, i thank the right honorable gentleman for his welcome. i hope that we will be able to work together particular areas we agree on. and i know that we have a strong support from the opposition in opposing vladimir putin to pulling law and ukraine. and i want us to continue to stand up to not to pulling russian aggression . that is lead to the energy crisis we face. now i am against a winful tax. i believe it is the wrong thing to be met to be hurting

companies off investing in the united kingdom just to be growing the economy. ha, mister speaker. i think it's on. so i oss because the treasury estimates all that the energy produces will make a 170000000000 pounds excess profits over the next 2 years. the price to no, she's no choice but to back that energy price sprees. but it won't be cheap. and the real choice, the political choice is who is going to pay? oh, is she really telling us? but she's going to leave these vall, excess profits, or mac table, or mike working people for the bill for decades to come back. oh, well i understand that people across all country are struggling with the cost of living and they're struggling with the energy bills. and that is why i. * as prime

minister will take immediate action to help people with that, right. and i will be making an announcement to this house on that tomorrow and giving people certainty to make sure that they are able to get through. this wouldn't be able to have the energy supplies and be able to afford it, but we can't just deal with today's problem. we can't just put a sticking plaster on it. what we need to do is increase our energy supplies long term, and that is why he will open up more supply in the north sea, which the honorable gentleman has supposed. that is why we won't failed board nuclear power stations, which the night party didn't do when they went on. and that is why we will get home with delivering the supply as well as helping people say the way i look forward to tomorrow's statement. but the money's got to come from

someone and she, she knows that every single pound in excess profits she chooses not to tax is an extra pound of boring but working people will be forced to pay back a ball pouring that is the did. that's the true cost or pro choice to protect on a gas profit, isn't it? yeah, mrs. fake of the reality is that this country will not be able to tax its way to grind away our economy is by attracting investments. keeping tax is low, delivering the reforms to build projects quicker. that is the way that we will create jobs and opportunities across all country. yes or your way. so mister speaker, her 1st act is prime minister is to borrow more than is needed because she won't talk excess oil and gas progress is all marked up. but how much would her plant

corporation tax caught hand out to companies? oh, they all right, honorable gentleman is looking at this in the wrong way. i. we will grace in time. we attracted more revenue into the exchequer because more companies wanted to base themselves in britain. 02 in, but more companies wants if you invest in all country and if taxes are put up and raised to the same level as france, which is what the current proposal is going on, which i will change as prime minister that will put off investors. it will put all these companies investing our economy and ultimate, that will mean fewer jobs, less grace, less opportunities with mister speaker. it's extraordinary,

but not only is the prime as to refusing to extend the windfall tax. she's also choosing to have the water company's polluting out beaches. i mean, she's choosing to have the banks attack scott abbey altogether. uncomfort is already doing well a getting a $17000000000.00 pound tax cut. yet while working people pay for the cost of living crisis, stroke victims, wait an hour for an ambulance on criminals, walk the streets with impunity. families and public services need to f 3 pennies. i can guess how on earth to she think. but now is the right time to protect

shells. profits give amazon attack sprague grammar. i on the sides of people. he was i, we're the national insurance in greece. and that is why we will keep corporation tax flow. because ultimately we want investment right across our country. we want new jobs and new opportunities, and that is what i will deliver as primary. hello. mister speaker, the prime minister claims to be breaking orthodoxy. but the reality is, she's reheating george osborne's filed corp time protecting oil and gas profits. i'm forcing working people to pay the bill. she's the 4th tory primacy for 6 years. the face of the top may change, but the story remains back. there is nothing new about the tory

pump to see a trickle down economics. yet nothing new about this tory prime minister who noted through every single decision the daughter sent to that man now says how terrible it is. a taunt she see. there's nothing new about a tory prime as to who when asked, who pays? says it's jude the working people of british. yes. well there's nothing new about a labor leader who is calling for bull tax roy. hey, i am saying mom to tighten with what i am a wow. is about reducing taxes, getting our economy growing, getting investment, getting you jobs, the people right across the country. i'm afraid to say the right honorable

gentleman doesn't understand aspiration. he doesn't know. he doesn't understand that people want to keep more of that right money, and that is what i will deliver. as prime minister, i will take immediate action to help people with their energy bills, but all say secure, all long term energy supply. i will take immediate action to make sure we have lower taxes and we grow the economy. and that way i will ensure we have a positive future for all country and we get britain being saying, yes. okay, that was the case. me prime minister least trust facing has prime minister's questions in the house of commons. that's bringing andrew siemens who's alive from westminster in london. hello there, andrew. and certainly plenty to unpack the tax cuts top of the agenda. what did you

make of what the new prime minister had to say? well, she got quite a roasting from kiss darma. he went straight to the heart of the matter. and that is, taxes. are the british people needing a break and taxes not only from in terms of cuts, but the windfall tax, and that is a winful tax is taxing the excess profits of energy companies, oil and gas. he quoted a figure, a very high figure. i'm just going to look up now in the region of 252000000000 in profits by at these companies. and he wanted to know why the new prime minister list trust at wasn't using windfall tax imposed on those excess profits in order to get relief on people's bills. as she is working,

she announced she was working on an energy plan. she was trying to put the polish on that she promised it would be delivered basically to morrow. that is thursday, and she insisted that it would relieve people with their bills. she also assured businesses that they would get relief on their immense energy bills, threatening bankruptcies run across the country. so this is a really key issue in it. there was no messing with anything else. they were locked in on this argument and that were words strong words from kissed armor, saying that she was taking money from the working people of britain in order to subsidize the, the energy, the energy bills at the longer term. that in other words, money would be sought that from public finances to get those energy bills down by paying subsidies to the energy companies. then in time to come, she reap it back through taxes when she has the mantra that she's going to cut

taxes and grow the economy. she was ro, best boston, her defense, but she didn't have the. she didn't have an explanation on where the money was coming from for a but that, that sort of treatment. so basic, basically you have a label leader getting stuck in here and accusing her of really being, you know, the face may have changed, but the story is still the same. the for conservative prime minister in 6 years, and the set is still the same story in terms of facts. now she was insisting that it has changed, that they will now invest massively in the economy that there will get britain working again. all of those sort of phrases. she has a totally new cabinet, a quasi cat, quoting her, a chancellor of the exchequer. she's working very close with him on these plans. she's trying to assure the british public. she wants to help them and will help

them within 24 hours, whereas labor says no way, she's robbing the public purse and that she'll get the money later from working people. andrew, just briefly, before we let you go, she's in a lease chassis and day to now of the top job. she's had a face cabinet meeting and she's also, i spoke an internationally to late as what more can you tell us? well yes she's, she's spoken to joe biden, the u. s. president. and he wanted to assure her that the u. k. special relationship was still in place. he congratulated her and he, he thanked her for the you case, contribution in the war against russia, ukraine. ah, he however, did mention northern island. he was seeking her support in trying to smooth things over and get agreement with the european union over post wrecks. it legislation on northern ireland. this is something he wants assurances that the could be

a solution on a he also pushed the point that russian aggression had to be challenged in every area possible with the full force of nato in terms of cooperation with supporting ukraine. it seemed to be a very amicable conversation, and she also spoke to president zelinski in ukraine. in fact, that was the 1st conversation she had with a foreign leader. she assured him of continued support from the u. k. in the long run, in the long game, in that war that she would never really pull out in terms of a supporting in every way she could as she committed herself to that, the 2 leaders then disgust vladimir putin and the way he was the weapon izing energy, i disgust how that crisis was being handled and how they had to think long term on that because there's no way the conflict will be ending soon. so yes, she's hitting the ground running domestically. definitely,

absolutely prioritizing the crisis over the cost of living in the u. k. but also emphasizing that she's come up with a cabinet that strong on foreign relations as well. and in that cabinet is that it stands out that it isn't a re shuffle. it's a wholesale slaughter of, of anybody who, who was backing her opponent, opponent rashid soon act. the form chancellor, who's now gone to the back benches. and every single person in that cabinet is a supporter off of that new prime minister. and. busy she is absolutely intent on keeping her supporters around her with loyalists. the money is a bad move in terms of, of getting eddie unity which the conservative party so desperately meets. while we will be watching this space with great interest, we appreciate the update andrew simmons line for us, the ina, westminster london. thank you.

rushes president is accusing ukraine of threatening europe's in nuclear security by sharing the separation plant. that a me, a potent has rejected a report by the un nuclear watchdog, and he says russia has no military equipment at the nuclear facility. that's in direct contrast to an i a, a report released on tuesday cave and moscow had repeatedly blamed each other for military tracks on site and ukraine's nuclear operate as says it would support the deployment of u. k. pace, trick capers at the separation nuclear plant, which is controlled by russia. the statement comes after the you and nuclear. what shocks at the plant had been damaged extensively. russia and ukraine, excuse each other of shelling that plant. the i. e a is calling for a security zone around the powers sanction and for conditions to be improved for ukrainian staff operating the plant, expert, se damaged buildings, housing, nuclear, fuel, and radioactive waste need to be repaid. the facility is in the southern city of

n. a honda usually generates about 20 percent of ukraine's electrical power, but fighting has increased the risk of damage to the national grades. it's fee to react to containment structure could be destroyed and allow high levels of radiation to contaminate e by areas. petra coat is the head of an a, an a joe atom, the, that few cranes state nuclear power company. he says, situations at the facility are dangerous. as a moment is up, i was in the power plant is work and incompletely island more. so it is all lines we're going to put it in the hall, flowed to the cleaning and read are damaged at the moment because of 7. and that is basically about a danger zone as a unit on move, our unit is reparation on the larry lowe. critical and low level of supply and

power fall 6 units. so old needs and there is no kind of granite system. there is no external power supply was a plant as a moment and the plan does work and incomplete island mold. so it is completely disconnected from the grid. there is no line of each correct or no central power supply was the only one you need on the plan right now is a ration of each provides power tools. the whole all needs in paro for the nuclear power plant, all 60 units. and this is very dangerous situation because this unit is ration all the very low level power in the morning critical and low level. so the think about stopping in because of that, and that says that we will be going to be going to generate us power supply. the

real must be off supply or fuel them. the crew to be melt in the feeling that after the course. and we don't want to this and it'll the russian president has rejected claims. he's using energy as a weapon. vladimir putin cold west in attempts to cap the price of russian oil and gas as quote stupid. and this week, moscow said it would keep the node stream one gas pipeline shut off indefinitely. meanwhile, you're a pain commission president of underlying has laid out a plan for the european union to tackle the energy crisis. she said, members, states would be asked to reduce their electricity at pink times, and the european union will implement a price cap on russian gas. we aim at lowering the cost of gas. and therefore, we will propose a price cap on russian gas. of course the objective is very clear. we all know

that our sanctions, deeply grinding into the russian economy with heavy negative impact. but putting is partially buffering through fossil fuel revenues. so here the objective is we must cut rushes, revenues, which put in uses to finance is atrocious. war and ukraine. germany, kane, has more on this from berlin. the last few days, few weeks about the russian position. these are ve, the energy crisis. we know that several western governments have said that it's a weaponized, asian of the situation. we know the e you long ago said that they believe that's president putin was recognizing the situation. what you need to remember is that not just the eve of the g 7 has already said that it would like to see price caps on russian oil. now we know that the spanish government has said that the e u is considering price caps on russian gas matters for spain, because spain,

over the course of this summer has been shipping in more l. n g, that's liquefied natural gas from russia. so the suggestion that the b caps on prices, well, that obviously would potentially have an effect on russia. and we know that president putin is talking about. he said that the west would be frozen using a russian allusion to a russian fairy tale about a wolf having its tail frozen. that's the sort of language that he is using. and it has to be said, it is in direct opposition to the sorts of language that he, you leaders, other western leaders have been using these avi russia. clearly there is no question. there is no meeting of minds between president putin's position and the position of the politicians in brussels and elsewhere to iraq. now where the supreme court is set to rule on an application for parliament to be dissolved as a 10 month long political impulse drags on. politicians allied with influential

share later moved to santa. we filed the petition last month after an earlier request was rejected. status support his have been protesting for maam, calling for a complete overhaul of the political system and new elections. i just done. rest in iraq is fueled by a palace struggle between 2 groups. satta opposes foreign interference in local politics. he supporters mainly come from poor communities that have been long shut off from the political system. they competing against a collection of sheer groups known as the coordination framework that are aligned with iran. both sides have military wings with thousands of members. some of them have been involved in the recent straight fighting baghdad in ron con, is following the court session in back. they are now talking things through. we don't know how long that will take this is a this comes after the disappointment of the decision to the so called launch came

on august 31st. they deliberated for about 90 minutes on august 31st before making that decision. now, why are they thinking about dissolving the policy? well, there's been this 10 long, long political impasse are ours parliamentary system is fairly simple. the people vote in the parliamentary was the parliamentarians. then choose a speaker of the house with consensus that speak of the house chooses present with consensus that president then chooses the prime minister. however, in the last few elections, we've seen week prime minister simply because all of the books weren't able to agree on who the right candidate should be. so the right candidate became the one that simply everybody could agree on. that meant the iraq has had a fairly weak prime minister, and this has been frustrating for many ordinary iraqis from the protest movements we saw in october of 2022, all the way down to the protest. mavens we've been saying last few days. there has been this call for reform for it, for change, and that's been led by looked at it also other who put in this application to

dissolve the policy. now, if it does happen today, we're lucky to see a lot of people out in the streets in jubilation. flooding in sedans, eastern state have guitar riff, has killed at least 6 people. more than 4000 homes have been partially or completely collapsed. emergency crews say they've provided all these systems, they can but need international and you the minute i was unaware that i got out of the water came and flooded us and took everything on its way and there was nothing left for us. we used to have a huge number of books, but we lost them completely. we lost our saving, was all foods and furniture. we have nothing but to thank god for that, no new name and i see the little dog we live in very difficult situations. our children hardly live here. we need tents, we need food and water. we need to medicine and treatment. our children are suffering as we don't have anything. i thought i had at least 15 people, mostly women and children have been killed in a landslide in western uganda. heavy rain triggered the slide in the town of cas,

c. c. several houses are buried under the months i reign at mac is sita is the spokeswoman for red cross. uganda, she says, rescue efforts are underway. we receive the rainfall and that people vacuum very didn't process. a district experienced airline flight, which buried call as of people. and we've got our response action teams go to the last around 4 am today. and i immediately would be 15. but of course, it was hard to work in the way i was considering that there was no lighting by early morning. that's such a risk. your team was on ground and they've been able to retrieve 15 bodies today. and majority of these mothers and children, and they really have to understand because they were sleeping and a marking they they were helpless. so it's still happening. but anyway, buried and rob was on the rescue team has had to dig them up from,

from there. and as i speak right now, there's a playground way i did bodies, i've actually been assembled and i post marked him team has come from the district of classes, say to be able to conduct the assessment rather the post mortem. and i'm still sure they're behind to go back to their families for barriers today. it's quite said that it's likely that normal people might 4, but might be found life because those who were injured actually, the 6 of them were referred to today in the morning to hospital. but then the community may shown that 18 people had been missing. so meaning if we've gotten a boat 15, so we have visit, maybe a likelihood of 3 more people. but it's not possible that the before the life considering the kind of tragedy and that you spent on the scene. so most likely the such and rescue is going to dig deep into my and it's not likely that somebody is alive from the time of the intact. for now the.
