12:07 pm
has been speaking this morning. what he had to say. well, he's been pressured on what he thinks of his new voss that sir. really the main issue list truss in a desperately a difficult situation. now, question marks over whether she could go in the coming days. he has stayed around that sir a quite diplomatically and basically said she needs time. he says that the true test of all of their policies will come probably in 2024 when this a scheduled general election. although some people are saying, particularly the labor party and opposition, the should be an election right now. now hung to the scene as a safe pair of hands. he's a former health minister he also took on or as johnson in the leadership race back in 3 years ago. he says that it was a mistake to fly blind now, thus as a reference to the tax cuts that were planned by
12:08 pm
a truss. and he says that a the had to be really an outline of exactly how the cuts would be financed that hadn't happened. the office of budget responsibility will give a report on any government plans from the mini budget at the end of this month. and really, the essence is that it was premature at to actually go with all of this ahead of time and then find that the markets which are the ultimate judge of fiscal discipline and, and plans for the, for the exchequer. they were obviously went into complete freefall and that thou, the questions are how on earth things can be put back on track. now, hunt presently is in the treasury, just near downing street and working out how he will put a plan together. he says he's not going rolling out. tax rises or certainly we're now talking about rises rather than guts. we're also talking about cuts in
12:09 pm
expenditure. so this is a complete, it makes a complete no listens really. of what truss had campaigned on in that internal election between in the conservative party. and now the british public have to face what he will is describing as difficult times. certainly it isn't brights. the prime minister is in the country a prime minister's residence at the moment, so she'll be there all weekend working out how she can try and drum up some support in this situation. observe as say in fact, inside and say that the conservative party has not been in such a splintered state in living history. it's just got to the point where some believe it will be too dangerous to change a prime minister again, just shortly after borrows johnson. and others are saying that you've gotta really faced the music and either change the prime minister or faced an election. thank you for that. andrew simmons live in london. on jonathan cortez is

a professor of economics and public policy at kings college london. he says, britain needs help with its governance on the one hand, in the short term what the u. k. economy needed. it was a significant support to households to help with this winter energy bills and to be fair. this government, the profit process as i think any government what has largely delivered that although it is very expensive. um, over the medium term, there are 2 types of credibility. there's, ah, economic market, credibility. and then there's a more broader related question of political credibility. and i think that the latter is in some ways more important. um, one thing trusted of where there was some continuity was with ours. johnson was to continue to trash. the british constitution are independent institutions to ignore, for example, the office of budget responsibility to ignore the normal way in which case govern.
12:11 pm
and that wasn't just frost. it was fun to net continuation of a number of things that's been happening over the past decade. but of course, particularly under burst johnson, so we're storing that i think, is actually in my view, even more importantly, economics to get back to governing us in a way that respects the traditions of the, of how britain that made britain a well govern society. officials in nigeria say they are struggling to get food and fuel to areas affected by the worst flags in a decade. more than 500 people have died in about 90000 homes are under water. 27 of nigeria. 36 states have been hit. it's nationally emergency management agency says the disaster is on a colossal scale. thousands of people have been forced to leave their homes across the east coast of australia after days of to ren shall rainfall. fara clark, reports swamped. this is the suburb of mare belonging, melbourne's, west,

12:14 pm
still the risk of flooding across the southeast of australia, even though the rain has stopped and that's because river levels continue to rise in some cases, reaching flood stages over the next little bit and still a few showers left for victoria state. of course, we've seen some flooding around melbourne now for the rest of australia that stands out in w a. so the temperature and per se at $21.00. northern areas of australia as of late temperature, is in some spots. hitting 40 degrees. where do you say we go to new zealand right now? no weather alerts to speaker, but a vigorous system passing just to the east of the north island at spreading some showers. and when for these cape, including gifts, been with the high 15 degrees tropical activity slamming into central vietnam, this area, the ground is saturated. so likely to see some flooding here, the winds are pushing that rain further south in vietnam. it's also clipping laos
12:15 pm
in the northeast of cambodia, and then we've got tropical activity cooking up north of the philippines lose on island. this will become a tropical storm and eventually a typhoon and it's throwing a lot of rain toward low, og. now the outer bands are lashing taiwan as we look towards sunday and meantime, for china, anywhere from the yellow river valley down to the pearl river, valley temperatures are above average for this and figure susan, ah, ah, [000:00:00;00]

12:21 pm
a 6 and 14 more people have been found that so the total number of that that the workers. ready has reached a 40 and there is one more work left inside the mind shaft and the interior minister said that the situation of this worker is still unknown but they are searching for him. 9 the hopes for this worker is not much actually, we are seeing that most of the workers who have been trapped in this minus 30350 meter levels haven't been rescued according to initial indications. the explosion happened because of a fire damped caused by cold gas and gas. but this is the initial finding and those. and if there's a, there's an investigation launched by the prosecutor's office. that will definitely tell us about what really happened inside. but the mind experts who have been
12:22 pm
speaking to media since last night have been saying that in order to have this fired them due to a cold guess the oxygen level in the mind should be down below a 4 to 15 percent, which can be regarded as an election, and they say this coal mine behind me, it belongs to the turkey state, if state owned and according to what the opera chill stored. there were 110 workers on site yesterday. if, if the 8 of them were rescued by the rescue workers, some of them by dave and all efforts as they were close to the surface. and now they are searching for the last one workers. and the families are waiting for these workers in level the workers are being treated in the hospitals and some of the patient. some of the workers have been wounded, have been transferred to a big hospitals that mis stumble as special or extra ties in

12:26 pm
and good unions. and prompted frances finance minister to step in to try to calm the situation could little do. of course daughter has to increase salaries, it has started to do so this company today has significant. so todd has paid dividends softer, welton, france should be shared fairly. with some refinery workers returning to the job, the government says, feel supplies will improve. but a new crisis, lose trade unions of called for general strike next week. the demand better pain conditions at a time when inflation is already fueling. discontent is asher butler, al jazeera paris hotel, as in pakistan, are demanding government action to stop increasing violence in boarder regence with afghanistan. they say not enough is being done to prevent the band pakistani taliban go from launching attacks. bob rango has more. oh good terrorism is not acceptable. hooliganism is not acceptable. extortion is not
