2:11 pm
yes. they've been several attempts they've questioned the integrity of the electronic boating system, which has been in use over the past 22 years. and just are very recently a couple of hours ago. they tried to stop a some cities which are offering ah, public transportation for free to voters. they didn't want that to happen. but this has been over ruled. so a cities like real are offering our free public transportation to voters. and this is very important because our luna's voters are the poorest people and they are the ones that depend on this. also, if there's an extension. and he has campaigned against abstention urging people to vote ah, the, the people that would abstain from voting would be the most are poor because they'd
2:12 pm
be either stuck at home because of bad weather, or wouldn't be able to pay the transportation. all right, we'll cross back to you throughout the day monica, you knock have live for us in rio de janeiro to the u. k. now, where for their prime minister has emitted she could have better prepared the public and financial markets of her new economic plan. these transfer, speaking to the baby, same, the announcement of her tax plan caused the pan to plummet to record lows compared to the dollar. i do want to say to people by understand their worries about what has happened this week. and i do, i do stand by the package we announced, and i stand by the, by the fact that we announced it quickly because we had to out, by do accept, we should have laid the ground better than right away except that you accept you and i i have learnt from that. i have learned from lots and i will make sure that
2:13 pm
in future we do a better job of laying the ground. let's bring in po brennan, who jane says live now from damning in their coal trust. certainly has been trying to reassure her party and the public that hasn't worked well, this just comes into this sir, annual party conference, a party leader for just a month. and you are the expected, perhaps it to be a trial triumphant arrival for las trust. but instead, as she had a difficult round of local radio interviews on friday, followed by today a difficult interview on the national broadcast of the b, b. c with laura tunes back. now, what you heard from the interview? there was an unapologetic list truss saying that although she accepts that there were difficulties in the presentation of the policy as far as she is concerned. the policy of cutting tax and funding that tax cutting, using massive borrowing is for her the right policy. because in her mind, she believes that it's going to fuel enormous growth here in the u. k. now that's
2:14 pm
going to be a difficult sell in certain quarters. the other thing that this trust said though that was that she was not about to you turn on this that she is absolutely convinced that the that the, that it's the right thing to do. i give you another couple of, of quotes that she said there was too much focus on optics of how things look as opposed to impact. she said she's, she's focused on delivering better public services. she and she believes in outcomes rather than inputs. now the reaction to that, immediately from within her and party senior and pico michael. gov was rather scathing and gives a hint of the trouble that this trust might have from within her and party. he said the sheer risk of using borrowed money to fund tax cuts that is not conservative. he said, it's the wrong values. i don't believe it's right. and that gives you a just a flavor of the kind of difficulties and internal difficulties live trust is gonna face here over the next 3 days. indeed, paul,
2:15 pm
instill on politics. tell us why torrie officials have had to explain the attendance is the chancellor and a private event on the same day he delivered that so called many benches. yes, a really interesting one. this a quasi quart ng, the chancellor who delivered that many budget on the 23rd of september on, on that friday, later that friday in the evening. he was invited to the home in chelsea of the financier. andrew more is a big tory donor. and at this event around 30 other corporate bankers, investment bankers, corporate finance, finance years and kazi quoting address them, they congratulated him on the announcement that he made this many budget, and they encouraged him to double down on it. now that the implication from the piece is that quasi quoting was urged to do even more by people who stood to make money from him doing more stood to make money effectively from the pound collapsing
2:16 pm
. and the quotes in the, in the newspaper article suggests that quasi quiting has been, is regarded in some quarters. as a useful idiot is the, is the quotation. that is to say, he appears the implication to have been manipulated by these finances and to promising even more and potentially collect, contributing to the collapse of the pound the following monday. thanks to bring this up to speed po brennan, life wrath in bending and thank you. still ahead on al jazeera, we solid applied trade is in guinea. these businesses is suffering. iran from a military, with anticipation is rising. and so with my cattle aways, the station had a hot summer, it didn't seem to want to end. indeed up until yesterday,

temperatures were still well above where they should be. we've set new records for this in china, the whole korean peninsula and most japan including hawkeye there. but there is a cooling trend. this line here is developing frontal systems, cold air behind it, and it's going south. so already it will have wiped out the high temperatures in the korean picture of this part of china, north of the yank. see, but shanghai in shanghai is still far too hot compared with the average battle. go because the front comes saves. during tuesday spreads proper raid into japan and event, she will not your temperatures back to where they should be. this is more familiar territory for early october. the heat is finally been pushed out of the way. likewise, the monsoon rains in india are going slow. the sas, but usually when they come in or go out, they tend to produce pretty circulations. is a big one in the bay of bangor. so it's feeding still enough moisture for significant down poles in western miramar, bangladesh, b ha,
2:18 pm
west bengal. no dish. and that circulation will continue for a couple of days, leaving most of the rest of india, and indeed pakistan now suddenly pretty dry, at least in the sky, to with sponsored by catch all day was in 1996, a group of young people, new to no way describe the immigration experiences. i don't know what i do. if they sent me back to synagogue 25 years on al jazeera world asks how norwegian they now feel. well, you have to accept that you might never be seen as norwegian. blood didn't belong. then you who are they now? no waste, foreigners at home on al jazeera. ah
2:19 pm

2:20 pm
lap is incumbent part. he has won parliamentary elections with new unity, security and just over 18 percent of the votes. prime minister christiane, as karens took a tough stance against russia's invasion of ukraine. the campaigns were dominated by the war and soaring gas prices. no party representing russia's ethnic minority, one is said, it makes up just over quarter of the population. we have a very clear course for the development of, of our economy. i would not want to deviate a very far from that course. and of course, the 1st and foremost from every one's mind is how we all get through the winter. not only and lucky, but throughout the european union. and that we all remain united behind ukraine and do not waiver in the face of difficulties for us. which in europe means higher prices, we always have to remember ukrainians are paying with their lives. let's bring in
2:21 pm
samuel remaining. he's an associate fellow at royal united services institute. he joins us by skype, from oxford, in the united kingdom, as samuel, so great speak to you again. so what does karen's coalition government likely? what's likely going to look like? well, i think is most likely to be a continuation of what we really see now heading on till now and back in jewish will likely continue in terms of policy as well. i mean, the hard lines dance towards supporting a military towards ukraine and balancing that those, their foreign policy objectives with high inflation and let as inflation as chopping over 20 percent. and the baltic states, in part because they're divested russian gas amongst the most enacted in europe. so were his policies on russia likely? oh, what was that? the result of karen's reelection? i think it probably was a mean. it was a pretty decisive that display of assistance. i mean, is sonia is the largest contributor of no trade to ukraine, add per capita,
2:22 pm
but latvia is right behind it. so happy has been a major supporter of the printing cars right from the beginning. and also the pro ration block which would have gone to the harmony party, which is usually the 2nd largest party has now slayed to the 5th largest party. they only have 5 percent of the vote coming in and coming forward and latvia left itself even harmony, party as recalibrate and reconfigured his palsy towards russia, 3 much more critical of russia's aggression ukraine that ever was before. and that, that a criticism has continued even in some ethic russians are big deb, concerned by the destruction of them. so we, they are one more, fails it briefly in riga, and they may be higgins and used from the russian foreign ministry, russian propaganda, which warns about discrimination against that group is what can we take away from those results about how does feel about the war in ukraine, so the overwhelming majority of voters, lampey obviously regard. the warranty ran as their central track to the yap baltic states as well. it's a fairly clear that a brush was glad to see new grain. and then next step would be to test the article
2:23 pm
5 needed your chart and most likely by carrying it forward in the baltic area. and i think that baltic c solidarity is an important bank. i mean latvia along with stony and that delaney a want to straighten their partnerships with native new members, sweden, finland, and create a bulwark against fir. the rush, no rush. so i think that regardless of the economic costs regulators arising gas prices, inflation, the severity of the threat is so strong that lack via wants to stay the course and lightly as a traditional bow of conscription that periods of time as well. so, but the, as a used to making sacrifices to protect their security a, maybe a bit more so than many people in western europe. are you still pushing e banking? oh damn for a samuel romani and as i sit fellow at the royal united services institute, thank you for your time in the program. thank you. voters in bosnia herzegovina, costing their ballots. the vote is widely regarded as the most important since the end of the buzz, me more. in 1995. the only 3400000 people are eligible to choose members of the

2:28 pm
a via badger of also another interesting personality. russia. if jenny is pre goshen, if any progression is a yeah, an important oligarch who is very close to vladimir putting your so leveled the same type of criticism to the leadership probably to the higher leadership in the army. probably the, the head of the whole army saying that those people should be sent barefoot to the front with kalashnikov to confront, to reality there and in a way, by way of punishment for them, for what they have done for the mistake they have committed. and these are, these criticisms, as i mentioned, are a reflection of what is also being said in the streets, ian by individual russians, one year after the killing guinea frustrations a growing, i've, or lack of progress in the west african nations political transition. and is ahmed interest reports from connor cray. the situation has only been made worse as economic hardships increase like many traders at toyo market,
