7:01 pm
i want to be honest, this is difficult, but we will get through this storm already the beleaguered u. k prime minister puts on a bright face soft a sacking her finance minister. ah, i'm carry johnson. this is al jazeera where life. so coming up, i am f projects of fallen growth across europe in the coming months. an urge is it's leaders to make tough policy choices. took here says it's studying of that. him of hooton's proposal to establish a regional hub to transport russian gas to europe. and more than a 1000000 people displaced, nigeria says many communities remain on reachable. profits was flooding in a decade. ah,
7:02 pm
we start with a growing economic and political term all in the united kingdom, from an us to list trust has sacked. her finance minister less than 6 weeks into his job and made another major policy. you turn. a government has now abandoned plans to cut corporation tax, but it is clear that parts of our mini budget went further and faster the markets were expecting. said the way we are delivering our mission right now has to change . we need to act now to reassure the markets of our fiscal discipline. i have therefore decided to keep the increasing corporation tax that was planned by the previous government. this will raise $18000000000.00 pounds per year. it will act as a down payment on our full medium term fiscal plan, which will be accompanied by a forecast from the independent a, b, r. we will do whatever is necessary to ensure debt is falling as
7:03 pm
a share of the economy in the medium term. antonio hall is outside 10 downing street in london for us. now it's on a how damaging is this for the prime minister? potentially immensely damaging. i think, particularly for a promise to release trust this position. she's only been in office. remember, for a little over a month, she has no popular political mandate. she was elected by just state 1000 members of the conservative party and her central offering to those members, which was economic growth, file low taxes. and this radical economy set of reforms was essentially bead torpedoed. u turns are always damaging for the credibility of any prime minister. she's had to conduct a few so far not least, the big one announced in a press conference a little earlier here. the young king all of plans to scrap the raising
7:04 pm
of cooperation tax rates that have been put in place by richie soon when he was chancellor that rise in cooperation tax rates will now go ahead. and of course crucially, also on friday you turning on her own chancellor classes call tang sacking him. he's not just any old political colleague. he is her friend, her close his political ally with whom supposedly in lock step they planned. and then she endorsed and defended despite market term, all that mini budget statement of mr. qua tag put into place. so lose lose trust. now seen by many, including many in her own pocket as a prime minister who has lost her of 40 in the party. her credibility, she's lost her unique selling point, her economics platform. and she is historically unpopular. the latest opinion polls now suggest just 16 percent of the british public satisfied with the job she's
7:05 pm
doing. she has an overall net approval rating of minus $51.00, which is the lowest of any british prime minister. given what you say that is it possible. she may not actually survival this to be plotting going on behind the scenes as we speak. a bunch of numbers, i think it's distinctly possible and plotting is whole ready going on. nobody will want unnecessarily to rush towards another bruising leadership campaign as we saw for several weeks here during the summer. and remember, it is not easy to get rid of a prime minister again as we saw with boris johnson, even for a party that has managed to get rid of its previous 3 prime minister. but there is one crucial consideration here. and that is that the opinion polls put the labor party, the opposition day party, according to some 30 points i head of the conservative party, their senior conservative party, m p. 's. now quite a number of them. rounding on least trust, accusing her of trashing the parties,
7:06 pm
central pillar, it's reputation for economic management, fiscal discipline, and leading them down the path towards that actual defeat. and there is no se having m p who willingly will go down that path towards the electoral defeat. so i think it's pretty much inevitable. the plans now will be a foot and would advance quite quickly to try and get rid of the turn a whole lot in downing street. thank you for some more reaction. now james need away represents the progressive economy for him. he says a person's government had run out of options. prime minister at least trust had absolutely no choice, but by this point, following in particular, i think the intervention by the bank of england governor andrew bailey on wednesday saying that supports the bank of england to be giving to the u. k. bond market guilt markets would come to a screeching halt roundabout now on friday, cause a huge panic over the middle of this week in financial markets and ready applied
7:07 pm
a great deal of pressure. i think, to the government to change course, it'd be on the card. so sometime the reaction to the mini budget barely 2 weeks ago, we did funded tax cuts with a huge borrowing with the implications that these borrowing would be sorted out some point in the future. but not now the panic that this started in financial markets. all that was already been effectively priced, did you turn? was all already looking? quite likely. it's just a question of how long was it going to take before they come? not that the problem today, i think is the least trust as you turned on parts of the big extra borrowing. she was planning $18000000000.00 parents out to the remaining $43000000000.00 pounds of tax cuts and other things. it may not actually be enough and looking at some of the market reaction probably won't be enough to entirely ease people's fears and to get out of this immediate crisis that there are. meanwhile, the international monetary fund is urging european leaders to make tough choices. the group has released its latest full cost thing to warn ukraine is hitting europe
7:08 pm
post pandemic with covering the r m f predicts g d p. and developed european countries will fall from 3.2 percent this year to no point. 6 percent in 2023. in emerging economies, that numbers expect to the slide from 4.3 percent to 1.7 percent in the same period . dime f says inflation will decline in 2023. the advanced economy is it may be 6 percent for developing nations is expected to stay in about 12 percent coming into 2022 things stood a strength, coordination and solidarity displayed in policy responses to corporate. 19 europe was on its way. ready to exit depend, make. meanwhile, rising inflation was expected to gradually subside as commodity prices and supply for the next would ease. but russia's invasion of ukraine changed the picture completely, and it is now taking a growing toll on europe's economies. correspondence tracking the i m. s full costs
7:09 pm
and dominate cane is in the german capital, but 1st to allen fisher about the groups headquarters in washington, d. c. well, tell us the i m f is releasing forecasts for regions across the world. it's fair to say the global economy looks to be something of a serious slum as i am, when you look at the report that it's been released for sub saharan africa. when it's entitled living on the edge, you realize that things there aren't looking good either. there is the very old cliches that when europe sneezes, africa catches a cold. and although there was who, after they pandemic, that there had been some rising growth in 2021 the. the foundations for what happens in 20222023 are not great either. the biggest challenge is, of course, like everywhere else in the world is the cost of living crisis, but exacerbated in africa by the fact that there is massive food insecurity,
7:10 pm
particularly in the horn of africa. and across this, a hill, according to the international monetary fund, somewhere in the region of a 123000000 people might not know where their next meal is coming from, with any great certainty. and then the governments are facing real political up people because of that, at normally political upheaval follows financial up people. and there is a deep concern that that could spread over africa too because they have to try and balance, making sure that the less well off are protected from what is happening. but also making sure that they don't over spend. because debt is now increased at the highest level we've seen since the early part of this century, and that is a what a as well. and here's another thing that africa has to worry about. and that is climate change. a continent which highs by and large not contributed very much to global emissions, will be disproportionately affected by what is happening. and so that is an appeal to the rest of the world to say, look,
7:11 pm
you can't turn away from africa at this point. yet again, another regional report from the international monetary fund here in washington this week, which really offers very few glimmers of hope about the next couple of years. ahead and thank you for that. we're going to stay with this and speak to dominic cane and berlin at all. nick, how is this going down in europe? there's little question that from the points of view of the i m f. when they say that the outlook for europe has darkened in their minds, very clearly to blame is the war in ukraine. they paint a bleak picture of the situation for europe, saying that inflation will be at 6 percent in the advanced economies. but double that's in the emerging economy saying that growth g, d, p growth will more than half, right? across the continent in the course of the coming year. and worse in the emerging
7:12 pm
economies than in the advanced economies. the cost of living up why 7 percent. but remember, that's an average number that will be countries in which it is considerably higher than that. and so when the i m f looks at the situation, they say that interest rates are likely to have to remain high for some time. they say they expect inflation will eventually start coming down. but this report will make full, quite bad reading for many governments across europe, the euro zone. and beyond that, when they look at the situation and work out how can we help people struggling with energy prices? the i m f says that rising energy price is off fueling the problem, the idea of growth being cut and inflation rising. certainly this report will make for difficult reading across europe. life for us in berlin, their dominic kane. thank you. was saying it with the european economy, refinery workers in the french ton of domes are protesting outside of total oil
