immediately due until newly harris was up of the sanctions from the west have been an aggressive attempt to get other countries to follow certain models. there are questions are and sovereignty and subordinating to their will. these are policies which have been carried out for decades. but there's been slipping away of us domination. they haven't been able to see the objective fact. if we look at recent times, the entire system of international relations is going through tectonic changing prisons. daily dale is dressed as held her 1st prime ministers question time in parliament on her 2nd day in office. there were jeers until through and these are, she pushed her plans to grow the economy through tax cuts. he conservative government is under pressure to tackle a cost of living crisis and soaring energy bills. but his trust has ruled out taxing energy companies, huge profits, albania has severed diplomatic ties with iran after accusing it of launching a major cyber attack, albanians government ordered iranian diplomats and embassy staff to leave the country within 24 hours. the u. s. is also weighed in saying an investigation found

hello and welcome to the program and fully back he bought britain's new prime minister is taking over at a time of unprecedented challenges at home and abroad. lester ice is under pressure to act on the countries cost of in crisis. family's face soaring, grocery and energy bills, as inflation hits a 40 year high. she also needs to manage the you case post breaks it relationship with the european union and the war in ukraine. but our 1st task has been to form a cabinet trust, promoted m p. 's, who supported her during the leadership context against re she's to knock for the 1st time. the government's top 4 rolls are not held by white men trust headphone calls with the u. s. and ukranian president before facing her 1st session in parliament as leader. she's promising immediate steps to deal with high energy

course. 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 and we will open up more supply in the north sea, which the honorable gentleman as opposed to that is why we won't bill for nuclear power stations. the labor party didn't do when they went on we will get all delivering the supply as well as helping with al jazeera xandra. simmons reports from london. this thrusters had to hit the ground running both at home and internationally. her 1st call with a foreign leader was with vladimir zalinski, the president of ukraine. she reassured him, of long term commitment. bother you. k. in supporting that war against russia and she attacked vladimir putin saying he was continuing to weapon eyes energy. next came joe biden to you as president. he assured her that the special relationship

with the u. k. would continue, and he thanked her for her commitment to the ukraine war and to challenge russian aggression. he went on to say though, that the european union at negotiations over northern ireland to get the legislation in place, had to be chased by the new prime minister domestically. she's got a major problem with energy prices, u. k families, millions of them really fun to get hard going. she's going to announce in the next few days, a new plan for capping the energy bills, right, the way across the country, limiting them to below $3000.00 us dollars in any given year. now this is a colossal commitment over a $100000000000.00 committed to it, which could actually threatened the whole mantra about cutting taxes because somewhere that money has to be found. and it could be found in taxes for the future

. and that could put her under threat. ah, well let's bring in our guests now in london, ron da. com reader in politics at king's college, london, and director of the university center for british government and politics. in cambridge, lydia craig, head of economics and at the new economic foundation and in brussels, petra's wrestler's secretary general of the european movement international, which is a civil society network promoting close a european integration, a well one, welcome to you all. thank you very much for being on inside story. before we get into the nitty gritty and the details of domestic and foreign policy challenges, i want to ask each one of you 1st, your general view of the new u. k. prime minister. your impressions, if you will, after 1st speech rod, let me start with you. what did you think? can she deliver? well, that remains to be c, i think on one of the major issues this trust has is that she started with. i'm usa

on a seriously unfavorable circumstances. so while it looks like she is um on the face bits in a powerful position, so a large parliamentary majority, she can do pretty much whatever she wants in terms of legislation. she is not politically very tricky position with an election looming and her party clumsy in the polls. so i was just things are looking quite gloomy from her in the start. but it remains to be seen whether she can turn it around running, just as of course. all right, lydia thought, can she hit the ground running? can she deliver was going to be very interesting to see what she actually does because of is the up until now she's been trying to appeal to a very specific and quite small group of people, namely conservative party members. and now obviously she needs to appeal. so that the public at large were already starting to see her pivot. so for example, the big emergency energy package that we're expecting tomorrow is, is very, very different to on the sorts of things that she was talking about

a few weeks ago. so i think she is going to have to backtrack a lot of what she said in her own conservative leadership campaign. now be interesting to see exactly what she does better us for so less in brussels. how does the rest of europe view less trust? what do they make of her vision of the u. k? well, after bodies, jonathan bees and my li, north comic premier sheep, things cannot get worse as far as people have brushes are concerned. having said that, british politics have the tendency to surprise us and to have done so over the past few years, especially seems where you decided to leave you. so people are hoping for the best, but they're expecting the worse. ok, rod. now let's get into the details of it, of course, a long and costly to do list for les stress, the most pressing issue, as we heard domestically is of course, to help people cope with a huge rise in energy prices. the cost of living crisis. but this energy crisis,

of course, is not just affecting britain, but the whole of europe given what's happening in ukraine right now. do you think britain, under less stress is better place to deal with it than other european countries? with the energy crisis that remains to be seen again, we won't know until tomorrow, some specifics of what this trust is going to come up with. i think what we can save you some confidence in this is the media around she's facing. so we saw her in primacy questions today when she faced kids some of the 1st time, the question over precisely who is ultimately going to pay for and be benefit from this trust measures is the call back around night or is giving way, i think less trust is immediately paying quite a big gamble that she will be able to cut through to the electorate where her connections immediately. lydia has is absolutely true, but i want to underline that she's a very difficult point in everything from talking to her own political party to

talk to the country at large company. and what's a difficult transition? what does the country at large make of her rod? not just, you know, conservative voters but, but all over the country as a whole. what do they think of her? well, not withstanding the fact that she isn't hugely well known amongst the country lodge of east on harrison to other members, johnson with exceptional and use cut through the country. she her number's not found tested, i think in comparison to case tom on question though, but they who would make the best problem is that she is around 10 points down to most measures. so not fantastic. i've got a lot of grounds make up. all right, libya coming back to the energy crisis, one of the plans, at least until, you know, she was elected seemed to be that there be some kind of freeze on energy bills. how, how will that be paid for, and what would that entail? yes, so there's been a lot of rumor about how, how it will be paid full. but some people i'm suggesting that it might be paid for

by loans to energy companies, which would mean because energy companies would put up household bills and for possibly up to 20 years afterwards to be able to kind of recoup these costs. it could mean prolonging the paying on households for quite a long time. will they oversee producing that pain in the future with a lot of people particularly criticizing the facts that it doesn't seem like there are any plans to increase the when full tax on oil and gas produces to make sure that they pay for the contribution is they're able say so there's been a lot of criticism of baffling suggestion that maybe it will be paid for via bar a future taxation that's, i mean, that certainly seems like potentially more progressive alternative as long as you go progress track system. you know, at least it's, it is that the burden is falling more on the wealthy by would say if she's going to

be partially boring, large amounts to some, some of the tax cuts that she's been talking about, right. the be helpful from cost of living perspective. i'm not going to ask you about that. i mean, during the campaign, her opponent said that this would be political suicide, electro suicide. but yet here she is. is this package of tax tax cuts that she's offering that she's announcing lydia? is that, is that going to help people with low income? no, i mean they're all the ones that we've had in being mooted or ruled. i would say fairly on taxes and are often going to benefit a lot wealthy people who don't need the help more in the case. for example, corporation tax corporations, making profits rather than those that are struggling. so i know that the tax cuts, in my opinion are very, very poor. you're boring and this is, this is going to have to be a big support package. so having waste, like you know,

what was never a good thing, but it's a sticky, bad thing in times of crisis when a large rescue package is needed and may be needed for many years. and people are talking about this crisis going on until maybe end of 2024, possibly long petros in brussels list truss. and the and u. k. general has worked well with the you on issues like support for ukraine, for example, the e right now as a whole is trying to find common ground and means of travel icing. these energy prices across the block. can they work with a u. k on this? that is genuine desire for human brushes in capitals across the continent to cooperate with a huge a. because as you pointed out, the challenges we are facing and common and they require a joint reaction. and which is why also it's imperative that this trust and you prime minister and dr. motor, conciliatory and constructive on duty and election campaign. even those who was

trying to appeal to. ready and not all section of the place and people who are paying close attention to your liking most speak english and describing the president of france are supposed to be full. and also communicating fairly good for a patient and methodist when it comes to the u hasn't been helpful. that has really made people have a low expectations and it will make cooperation hard. and so it's imperative that the soon at least try to communicate messages that are based on they need to be neutral trust because people is also in the british government separately as he was perceived quite hostile towards the european rod. which version do you think the, which version of less trusty? i think the european union is going to get her critic say that she's cavalry use opposition to the northern island protocol and, and the south to gonna support within the conservative party. do you think she'll

die down the temperature now that she's been elected? most likely. i want to think, you know, lease trust is no longer campaigning. she's going to be confronted by the realities of government, but particularly the government in crisis. i think her options are going to be seriously limited. she will have to develop some or consider a, b, c. exactly. when that happens mediately, i think the fiscal costs, all of us just try to. ready europe become a parents, i think that will be when you see the tipping points, but yeah, i think if nothing else please trust is a flexible politician. i mean, you can say with certainty throughout her career as she has changed positions openly repeatedly. so i think um, yeah, absolutely, it was a very different kind of figure. do you agree with that lady? i mean, she was very tough with the year during negotiations for for rec, said she was a tough. negotiate a confrontational even at times with brussels. are we going to see continuity when

it comes to breakfast, or are we going to see a change as the wrong thing? well, i certainly hope that we will see a change because i think, you know, everybody loses from the current situation with regards to brussels. the u. k definitely continues to suffer. for example, if you look at something like business investments, it's been down since the brakes that referendum. it's still down on the a lot of that is to do with the uncertainty and so much of the breakfast negotiation still to be worked out. so what already paying the price plus, you know, like, like others of emphasized. well the, you have a literally be and i haven't when we're certainly not economically an island. i think we're going to see this actually over the winter. it's going to be really how much homes the u. k. because obviously the you have has big problems potentially coming this. this was with, with energy show that shows as possibly black house better. and that's going to

have lots of ripple effects for the u. k. economy through supply chain because our economy is also in length. so i think it's going to be, yeah, i've got much hope to see this truck working in a much more constructive way with the european union. petro on the northern island protocol, which has been really at the heart of the dispute with the european union. where, where do you see things going and what sort of flexibility is there from brussels on this issue? are they likely to give will give up a little bit just to be on the same page as fairly stress in the british government bossa, the e leadership, the you institutions, but also see prime minister sandra state in most states have said that there is, of course, desire to work out any difficulties that my am i need from the protocol, but there is no appetite, renegotiate, open lease agreement. people here are cautious, how difficult negotiations,

where and how difficult bases that we needed to call to address. and they don't ways to go back to the start and negotiate again. there is appetite to find solutions to difficulties bad about that, but i need to be reciprocated. john needs to demonstrate the desire, the 1st and foremost respect. they agreements that the her signed up to, and then constructively, not with brickman, see in mind and gauge into finding solutions. and unfortunately, we have seen, are successive prime minister said from comment on all the way to really stressed to, failing to adopt a confrontational stands not appreciating reality as he was said, but actually being victim to i don't see in my days when it comes to dealing with you and that doesn't play very well over here. as you alluded to earlier during the campaign, when she was asked about future relations with french fries and demand new to my call, she said that the jury was still out. do you think that was

a diplomatic mistake? do you think she'll change your attitude when dealing with other leaders? certainly it was, it was in diplomatic language. let's just say that you raise a lot of eyebrows because even if you're in an election campaign, even if you're trying to appeal to the galleries and get a cheap laugh and you are, you know, you are rehearsing to be a statesman prime minister. and this is not the kind of language settling, the kind of stone, any want to adopt. that aspires to lead the nation like you. so it has left, as our tasting the mouth among people over here. but whenever the list there grownups, hearts keen and i, mr. micro abrasion micro demonstrated shortly after those statements. he didn't take it personally, they general desire to engage and work together with britain. and the hope is that they will be maturity, people will, will grow up and engage as adults. all right,

right. i want to come to you and talk about another domestic issue, and that is well domestic keeping the union together. northern ireland and scotland threatening to break away. will she be able to do this to keep the union to get well, that's one of the questions. i mean, certainly it's going to be high on the agenda. i think the scot, this national park really see opening list ross premier ship, we can expect to see pressure coming from them. i think be one of the reasons why the less likely in the immediate future is that none of the major parties say is a viable policy tool. berry. i'm just at least in, in, in england. and so, yeah, not mediately, i didn't, can see it start rise on the agenda. i think it's going to be very but other things . and let's look at least trusted in boxes, is probably the worst in boxes. any incoming prime minister in living memory, you know, living crisis, we got

a collapsing and you've got the ongoing ukraine. so many other things. i think we're going to squeeze out. so i think it will be an issue, but not until probably after the next general election, that's going to be not in the media. what about her ability to reunite the conservative party? well, this would be the question cabinets. not always yes. been designed to reach out to critics. she's very much being promoting people who kind of strike this quote from brian natalie. they have the right thing of the party. her job will be to kind of secure a broad coalition within the ultimate policy. i think at 1st appearance in parliament did that to an extent. she landed a punch or 2 own kids. sama, the question will be once you get into the 1st couple weeks, couple months of payments shit. will she be able to keep that going in the face of

a seriously perilous electoral situation? not always the special days in libya, as you talked about. and this really seems to be high on the agenda for her, at least reporting for foreign policy vision. it seems will be focused on boosting the british economy, right, as he said, so do you, do you then expect any changes diverging from boys johnson government at all on china? for example, we've got quasi quite staying as a new chancellor. what changes do you expect to see? are we going to see continuity when it comes to economic policies and relationships with china? for example, trading partners? yeah, i'm not, i mean i've, i've, i've not seen an enormous amount of kind of rumor intel on that for me. so i'm not sure. i mean, i think the theory about to see what she actually does. but just to kind of go back to the previous point about will she be able to unite the conservative party?

i think from an economic perspective, it's going to be very interesting because obviously lots of the tax cuts that she is advocating that a large number of conservatives is being a very inflationary. also because she's committed to these tax cuts, she's going to have to have big rescue package through large amounts of borrowing. and a lot of conservatives are going to be picking a view that has been very, very on services. so i think she's gone. it's no less challenge to bring the conservative party together on some of the big kind of economic changes that are going to happen because it's going to be a very different treasury to the treasury that was run on the bar strong some. all right, so you think domestic issues really are going to be her focus as she's taught her term as prime minister, let me come to you now. petro seen brussels as a foreign secretary. she promoted global britain, seeking to strengthen the u. k. role in international politics. how did she do van,

and how do you think she's going to do taking the u. k. heading under her leadership, where she going to go on issues like china, for example, ukraine, the relationship with russia. there is a contradiction in the basin to for global britain and the distance that the news trucks and numbers. and because we have taken from the closest neighbor, they're more intimate trading partner in the european union. so they're, they're all to grow by breathing, certainly goes through europe. and if the police trust is to be true to that vision, the 1st thing that you should do is ensure cross and constructive relationships with a european union in europe and nations. and you can record that probably now has been relatively poor as a back breeding as a whole, hardly any trade agreements. anybody. the agreement is that the case has actually signed. we're just rolling over the existing agreement that the u. k. enjoyed as a member of the european union and those new trade agreements were far from

beneficiaries for the u. k. self. so here record was poor and if he used to continue down this path for the 6 intellectually dishonest in effect proposition and global future exist far away from the closest neighbor and trading partner, then i don't expect my success. the key ease in re engaging that they have to be on the union constructively building across economic and political relationship. because our challenges are common and only join solutions can actually get us out of the current deal political situation that we're in, rod in london. what about the so called special relationship with us? president biden has been critical over the northern ireland protocol issue. where, where do you see the relationship with washington heading? so continue, is he primarily embarrass johnson?

always shoes, relations with america. bigger, i suspect least trust is going to do the same, in part because it's a break with europe in tennessee. i think you're right. i think i don't think it can be reciprocated to the same extent from the west of lease lease, not because not on the pros. oh, at least on july issues resolved. i think it is can be one of those things that will be in the background. will be one of the many competing issues for agenda. i think she's going to be obviously the 1st couple months, you know, with crisis after crisis, this won't be one of them. others is that along to do lists at home for sure. thank you so much for a very interesting conversation. thank you. to all 3 of you, haven't they. com, lydia creek, petro specialist, thank you very much and thank you for watching. you can always watch this program again any time by visiting our website at al jazeera dot com for further discussion . go to our facebook page that facebook dot com forward slash a j inside story. you can of course,
