9:03 pm
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. trust at a planned freeze on corporation tax will now be reversed in a painfully awkward grilling by the press. yes, he has to go out for how come you get to stay. my priority is making sure we deliver the economic stability that our country needs earlier. the chancellor quasi courting dash back for meetings in washington for crunch talks would trust only to be shown the door. do you feel that you've been betrayed by the prime minister? they'd entered office together as ideological part as bent on massive tax cuts and debt funded borrowing. but they many budget spook the markets, causing the pound to plummet from ascending the cost of government. borrowing soaring, i trust, has appointed jeremy hunt a form of foreign and health secretary to replace quoting. he's
9:04 pm
a respected faith in the conservative party who back the former chancellor, re she soon act over live trust in the race to become leader. it's hoped he'll help unify a party dog by in fighting in london's financial center, quoting departure was welcomed with a collective sigh of relief and questions about the prime minister's future. you've got to be a pragmatist. if you pursue dogmatically your ideology, it will end in disaster as you're just seen. incredible is that i'm not surprised. i'm not surprised in a really bad job. i think probably the worse of ever see it for a good me for the country you think? absolutely. yeah. we need stability is on a viable for him to carry on doing what he was doing. i mean, it was crazy. and what does this mean for trust you think? oh, i can't see her going on to be honest, i can't see how it says sustainable is less than 40 days since let's trust. walk through that famous black door is the country's newest prime minister,
9:05 pm
in which time the markets have been left in turmoil divisions within the will. the conservative party have deepened and the parties, reputation for fiscal responsibility has been shattered. the sustain battered and bruised, she limps on her premier ship looking more and more precarious. by the day ne park al jazeera london, jonah hall is outside number 10, downing street in london forest. now. so just how damaging is this for the prime minister? about? i think potentially extremely damaging police trust, potentially catastrophic for or for her premier ship. remember, she's been in office for just over a month now. she has no popular political mandate. she was elected by 1000 conservative party members to whom she promised higher growth on the back of lower taxes and radical economic reforms. a promise that looks to have been told. and you turns reversals on political policy. decisions are always damaging for
9:06 pm
a prime minister. the way to protest is credibility. they've been a few of those not least this afternoon here at downing street during the political campaign leadership campaign in the summer. she swore it was the centerpiece alter campaign indeed that she would reverse a plan. rise in cooperation, taxes put in place by riches soon as her opponent then the chancellor, previously will. she's not the ro back on that. those rises will go ahead in the campaign. she said they'd be no public sector budget cuts. well, here she implied, they would have to be public sector budget cuts, that of course she, you turn on her chancellor quasi qua tag. he was sack this afternoon, her political closest, political ally, indeed her friend with whom in perfect lock step it was said they together planned the mini budget, so spooked the markets. she endorsed the plan, she defended the plan despite turbulence on the markets. and yet he alone has taken
9:07 pm
the full for it and so on. all of these measures she is a prime minister, begins to look and indeed does look to people within her own party, like someone who has lost her credibility, her or 30 her central political project. and her popularity, the latest opinion polls put the prime ministers approval ratings at a net minus 51, the lowest of any british prime minister in history. turn to how in downing street for us there. thank you. or this truss has had a turbulent time in her $45.00 days as a prime minister to 17 days into her premise ship, the government unveiled a tax cutting many budget they paid for by massive increase in borrowing the most controversial elements was the abolition of the 45 percent talk rate of tax of highest honors. the pound immediately plunged, falling to its lowest level against the dollar. the bank of england was forced to intervene and buy up the government bonds to try to stabilize the economy for just
9:08 pm
10 days after announcing it now. former chancellor quasi quoting with a, you turn on the abolition of the 45 percent rate of tax saying we get it. he lost it in a job for a total of $38.00 days. the 2nd shortest tenure of any charts that in the u. k. let's bring in patrick diamond now he's professor in public policy at queen mary university of london is also a former policy advisor for the labor party government led by tony blair. he joins us from london. welcome to the program. so a dramatic day then, but can at least just survive. what is not clear that she can survive, as you say, has been a dramatic day, the unfolding puts clinic. nomic events have been extraordinary. indeed, not just to day, but the last 3 weeks or so. there's been a neverending series of crises and upheavals and british politics also in the u. k . economy. it is not clear, it's whole that this trust can survive. i think chiefly because although she has fired her finance minister quantity, quantity, she was after all the chief architect of these tax policies. and so the damage to
9:09 pm
her credibility by having to abandon them, i think, makes her position close to impossible. and it's only really a matter of time before she ceases to be prime minister if she was going to go, we don't know that, of course, that would she have to be persuaded to resign? what would be the mechanism while she's very tenacious millions trust has not become leader of the conservative party and prime minister without having an, an extraordinary determination and political energy. so she's not going to go easily. i think she has to be persuaded. probably chiefly by capital colleagues that her position to become unsustainable and within the best interests of the conservative party to make a change of leadership. now, how much does this reveal? a split then between the members of parliament and their own support based in the constituencies he had elected list trust. well, i think you put your finger on a very important point,
9:10 pm
which is that list trust his position much not for gap was always structurally weak because of the nature of the conservative party leadership process. she was actually supported by a very small number of conservative m. p 's. in the 1st round of the contacts jenny came through in later stages because the candidates were eliminated. and so, although she was popular with a section of the membership, she's never really have the support of the parliamentary policy. and it was clear that as soon as she had trouble, she would be in, in fundamental difficulty. now nobody expected trouble would come as quick as 3 weeks into her primary ship. but comment house, and i think it now makes, as i say, a position really very difficult to see how she struggles on from here. how does all of this affect the person in the street as it? what does this make 21 but it does impact of course. i think the most important way in which some all has hit or revises is because of rising mortgage rates, which means that people are paying more interest on the lines for their houses for
9:11 pm
coal. so it's damaged this weekend and he was telling which means the import coming into the world expensive. and as a consequence of buying price, inflation is rising. people are paying more for goods in the shocks, more for services in the economy. so well, i think it may seem like very technical events and the financial markets. they do also really impact on the everyday experience. british consumer ok with their patrick time and thanks very much indeed for joining us. meanwhile, the international monetary fund is urging european leaders to make tough choices. the group has released its latest forecasts saying the war ukraine is hitting europe's post. pandemic recovery i. m f predicts g d p, and developed european countries will fall from 3.2 percent. this year to not point 6 percent in 2023 in emerging economies. that number is expected to slide from 4.3 percent to 1.7 percent in the same period. i m f says inflation will decline in 2023. and in advance economies, it may be 6 percent while developing nations,
9:12 pm
it's expected to stay at about 12 percent coming in to 20. $22.00, thanks to the strength, coordination and solidarity displayed in policy responses to corporate 19 euro plus on its way. ready to exit depend, i make mean vile rising inflation was expected to gradually subside as commodity prices and supply for the next would ease. but russia, us invasion of ukraine, changed the picture completely. and it is now taking a growing toll on europe's economies of more on this. i speak to alan fish in washington, dc. alan. before we talk about the implications for europe, tell us what us treasury secretary done it yet has been saying well, she's just funny. send you a conference in washington, 1st of all, let me apologize for the band that has just sparked up here in the last few minutes and set your own joke here about what they should be doing, given the gleick financial pet. the janet yellen is essentially saying that the
9:13 pm
action that the g 7, the european union, the united states and its allies and taken a certainly we can russia's financial position and. 7 it would be reflected in the reports that we're getting from the i m f. we say this is the stock of the war. not only is europe seeing a dropping growth, an increased inflation, but it's heading places like russia particularly hot. it's ukraine even harder with their g d p down 30 percent, but you, russia is down by 10 percent as well. and there's a warning that things are going to be pretty bad in europe over this winter because of the cost of fuel. not only is it going to be difficult to get the i am if a warning that it could be ration, then that aware that this is impacting the poorest and all the communities, not just in europe, but around the world. they're saying that in europe, for example, the cost of living has gone up by about 7 percent. that that doesn't sound a great deal. but if you normally spend about a $100.00 a week on your shopping to buy food and united spending a $107.00 and you don't and that much in the 1st place and your wages haven't risen
9:14 pm
to match that. then that becomes a big strength. so they're saying that any action that is taken by government should be targeted, it should be temporary, and it should be fully funded, but it's certainly a bleak picture for europe. and i don't hear you mentioned other regions there. what about the african continent? how does that fair in the full costs? well, they often say that if you'd up sneezes, then africa catches a cold. and that would certainly be reflected in the figures from the international monetary fund. they say there are a number of problems there. excuse me, that the continent looked as if it was emerging from cove, it with increased growth, but the water ukraine has impacted that as well. i'm. one of the biggest impacts has been food insecurity, 123000000 on the continent, not knowing at where their next meal is going to come from. and the potential is that the situation is going to get water because of the war and ukraine as well.
9:15 pm
they're seeing that the problem is particularly bad and the so hail and also in the horn of africa, i had to. 7 that there is a problem with corporate itself and the only 21 percent of those in the con, to i've been fill the vaccinated that least still problem because it means that people are much more vulnerable to new outbreaks and new strains of the drug as well. of the disease as well, and then you'd want to talk about climate crisis and climate crisis. yeah, africa hasn't contributed as much to global emissions, but certainly a is disproportionately impacted by all. now. you add to that the, any financial instability, sometimes trees, political instability that governments are already fighting with huge debt bartons . they've got to what, with trying to help the poorest in their communities. but also make sure that they can still make their payments to international agencies that went the money. you can see why when the, an annual africa report came out. it said africa living on the edge. and you can
9:16 pm
see why that that is a real what a for those in the international monetary fund. okay. alan fish with a musical accompaniment there in washington dc. thank you. what's ellen just mentioned the i m f is predicting a bleak future for africa. ya. m f as cottage growth forecasts the continents most industrialized economy has plenty of the miller in south africa's biggest city, johannesburg. more than a 3rd of south africans don't have a job. the world banks lowered south africa's economic growth to under 2 percent. for this year. the rising cost of living has put millions of south africans under pressure and saving for many of them is now simply a luxury. the cost of fuel is gone up as it has across the world, growing inflation and increase in interest rates. and of course, soaring food prices, a threatening households, especially poorer income homes, normal bhaskar, if we did use to close to $500.00 rates at no cost to go through it, so speak basically, double double what used to spend on petrol,
9:17 pm
what you spend on food? it's just, it's greatest worse than ever before. if we look at our current government is how can i put it now? you just yeah. about money disappearing. money has been allocated to different, let's say, municipalities in nothing actually happens. so that because economic future is uncertain with poverty and debt worsening. now, solution for many would be an increase in local and foreign investment to create jobs for the countries electricity and potential water supply crisis. maybe putting investors off of africa is have the worst call. what pets in decades with many areas, without electricity for anything between 2 to 6 hours at a time 30 more head on the news hour, including up more than 1000000 people displaced at nigeria says many communities, main unreachable countries, worst flooding in a decade, patrol is running short and queues for fuel getting longer in france will tell you
9:18 pm
one moment on the winning score and nfl huh. plan. who was shot just 6 days ago, so no stories. ah, that he is president jeff taper. edwin has ordered his officials to study russia's proposal to set up a regional gas hub in the country. president vladimir putin says it offers the best route to re direct gas to the off the north stream pipeline was recently damaged. the 2 liters i've been meeting in kazakhstan this week on thursday who tin suggested that moscow could send more gas through the existing turk stream pipeline, which ones beneath the black sea to talk here, even suggested russia could build a 2nd pipeline between the 2 countries. take years at lee that suggested that the region of thrice could serve as a distribution center to sell gas to europe and beyond. abby rad genderin is
9:19 pm
a director at energy intelligence research. he says, this proposal shows how energy markets have been changing. this is happening in oil markets as have as flows have shifted away from, from europe in the west, towards the east. and i think, you know, avid for russia gas poses a bigger challenge because it's not as flexible as, as oil product markets. you need to rebuild the infrastructure, you need to rebuild the partnerships. and i think you're starting to see the same thing. you know, i think i think they kind of see europe as a, as a market of last from a gas standpoint. and they need to figure out ways to kind of reap pivot those molecules. they will go to central asia. increasingly they'll find ways to, to push those to south asia. and of course, potentially to china. this will not be easy. it will be, you know, kind of a multi year process can be very expensive, but you know, they're kind of weighing the groundwork for, for those, those new partnerships. the, for the west is trying to, you know, to,
9:20 pm
to push this an anti russian view. and then try to kind of bring the world together and kind of push back on on, on their war machine so to speak. but at the same time, you know, you have developing markets and develop and emerging world that, you know, that really kind of has to take care of itself 1st, right? to take care of its own citizens. were all dealing with inflation and, you know, an energy shortages of different sorts. and so, you know, i think it's a difficult thing for europeans and the western general sort of push, impose on, on developing markets are staying at that resource. coming in kazakhstan, the russian president was also asked about the war ukraine. vitamin putin announced he has no plans to call up more troops. he said the military call up of 300000 reservist was finished and he would not move to put more treats into service. he said, his aim is not destroying ukraine, who to warn at any correct clashes of nato troops in russia would lead to
9:21 pm
a global catastrophe. which i see on the show now there is no need for massive strikes. there are other goals to chief now out of i think 29 objectives. 7 have not been hit. the way the defense ministry planned that dealing with them. these objectives. there's no need for massive strikes, at least for the moment, for now, as for the future. and we'll see, well more now from a home involved in moscow. putting was the speaking on the sidelines of the, the commonwealth of independent states, coffers in stana. and he, in addition to what a mission, what he said the in that clip, he also said that he doesn't see any need for any meeting with the president biden during the g 20 summit in, in bali next month. and that seems to be a, you turn on the statements made on wednesday by he is a foreign minister, sergey lover of who was asked about this particular event quality. and he said that
9:22 pm
a rush is open for any proposals from the other side to receive any proposals there with a study them. and he doesn't see any reason why such a meeting can't happen if they receive a request for it. but also we have to remember that the u. s. prison joe biden. the day before on tuesday, he made it clear in an interview with sin and but he doesn't have any plans to meet with their present putting deductions receive that statement or belatedly a little bit late and the responded on it or to day by president, put in but it is clear that the 2 leaders have now made it are clear that they, they have not intending to meet each other present by then in his statement on tuesday, he said it unless president putin comes to him during the summit and asked him for a meeting and particularly to discuss the release of to us citizens who are in jail here, russia, he wouldn't consider any such meeting. meanwhile,

9:32 pm
all calling on the government to do more, to tackle the climate crisis and highlighting what they say is the intersection between the climate crisis affecting the product and the viability of human life and the cost of living crises, hitting households around the country. part of the reason that we've got this huge increase in energy bills is because we're dependent on fossil fuel and the price of fossil fuel internationally. so what our government is doing, talking about new licenses and getting more oil and gas 1000 or c for not. they're not going to get anything out of those wells for 10 years. so going to help anybody this winter. and also, when it does come out, the price will still be the same as it is for everybody else. so again, it would help us. so this winter we've got people who are, you know, having to choose between heating and the homes and eating well many of the protect to say that they would like to see a winful tax imposed by the government on excess profits made by oil and gas
9:33 pm
companies. that's something that many of the british public actually support. so for extinction, rebellion that would be something that government could do quickly which would help with a climate crisis. and with the cost of living crisis, federal workers in france happening gauge and stand off with oil companies totaled energies and exxon mobiles. more than a 3rd of the countries filling stations off facing supply problems. due to a strike for better pay with asha butler has more from paris to more than 3 weeks of strike. so most of frances refineries sign look, breakthrough french company, total and algae and to trade unions agree to a 7 percent pay rise. and one off bonus for workers is jablonka 2 and one that i think that every one contributed if we listened to every one and this allowed us to achieve something more wonderful nodes, we support this agreement. it's the result of a decent compromise. and it's a good deal compared to marshals, but the main union behind the strike, the c g
9:34 pm
t has rejected the offer. it's demanding a 10 percent pay rise to help work as cope with inflation and says, staff should be given a share of the high profits that oil companies have made because of the energy crisis. some people are gorging themselves, totals, management, refusing to share the wealth that their employees have created. the strikes affected feel supplies across the country. one 3rd of petrol stations in france are either close or sort a few people here, a queuing for one of the only agile pamphlets actually open or in the parts region . and some of them tell us that they've been waiting here for more than an hour. every dorm when you've got the i live in the suburbs, but need to come into paris early for work every day. so i am forced to use my scooters and need a few of these. i'm waiting for a one hour and i think i still have a 30 minutes or something. hopeful. so chances prime minister promised her in the
9:35 pm
blockade by ordering some staff to return to work or face penalties and move that and good unions. and prompted frances finance minister to step in to try to calm the situation could little do, of course, or tell has to increase salaries. it has started to do so. this company today has significant profits, thought out has paid dividends after i wrote them, france should be shared fairly, with some refinery workers returning to the job, the government says fuel supplies will improve, but a new crisis looms. trade unions of called for a general strike next week to demand better pain conditions at a time when inflation is already fueling discontent. as i shall, butler, al, jazeera, paris, iran, supreme leader, ayatollah ali harmony has condemned the ongoing unrest in the country, saying protest, us will fail to undermine the islamic republic. thousands took to the streets once more trotting slogans against the regime. the unrest was sparked by the definitely
9:36 pm
custody of 22 old at most and many raining. the government has been the protest on the western influence and get them to me that one and as they can, the enemy stopped. they could uproot the tree of the islamic republic. that small tree has now turned into a massive tree. anyone who even thinks about uprooting this trees completely wrong . 0049 coal mine is a trapped hundreds of meters under ground in northern to hear natasha of a mass authorities say the collapse of the mind was correspond unexplained, blast rescue operations are on the way. while the 500 people have died in jerry, the worst snubbing in a decade, unusually heavy rains as lead to the destruction of tens of thousands of homes on the dress as more from africa, in the se. it's been raining all night yesterday and this morning we walk up to showers and this could find
9:37 pm
a complicated effort to reach those communities cut up by the floods number listed . and many parts of the country were talking about tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of government officials saying. and now the biggest concern is the increasing amount of rain that we're receiving. ideally, this is the, this is the end of the rainy season. and the intensity of the reins is supposed top dropped by now. however, what we saw in the past 3 or 4 weeks is such that the rain continue to just drop from the sky and not just complicating already a bad situation. what do we hearing down south downstream towards the niger delta is the flooding is now increasing the intensity of flooding is increasing that as well. this is the rule while the flood waters up know in the central parts of niger i here in the southeast will drain into the delta and into the atlantic ocean. what
9:38 pm
we hearing now in states like re but, and by also state communities, entire communities have been flooded. and one of the major high was linked by you also state one of the oil producing states in niger area to other parts of the state like river state and even to lagos has now been flooded and cut off completely. so that's the situation. people are dealing with now we're talking also about reaching those communities is becoming difficult because of the rising level of water in those communities, government agencies, it might just work as aren't able to reach such people. now this is what is happening in most parts of areas impacted by flex. brandon barracuda wilson is a deputy director at nigeria is that national emergency management agency. he says bad weather is hampering rescue efforts. my team was with the deputy governor on the confirm that on a daily big floor ex fund and reaching out to communities that were
9:39 pm
