welcome to the news our. the u. k. prime minister has resigned after a turbulent 44 days in office full of policy. you turns market turmoil and cabinet resignations, less trust. so she said she was quitting because she couldn't deliver the mandate. she was elected all by the tory party to being forced to rip up her economic plans . the tories now have one week to elect a new leader with candidates room id to include former finance minister, richie su, neck, and trust. his predecessor or it's johnson, financial markets responded well to the news with the british pound, rising by one percent against the us dollar off to trust. resigned. sonya today go has more resigning after just 44 days. and all fis brought down by the failure of her own policies, policies that lead to ne economic meltdown. and an astonishing loss of support from her and peace, ministers, and own party members. i cannot deliver the mandate on which i was elected by the
12:03 am
conservative party. i have therefore spoken to his majesty the king to notify him the i am resigning as leader of the conservative party. after tumultuous 24 hours, i saw the dismissal of home secretary swell brothman and the chief and deputy whips threatening to walk out after a chaotic vote in parliament. or ha, support for trust rapidly ebbed away. it was quite clear. it has been for 2 weeks that she was on her way out. the skits were under her. i'm the party needed to remove her swiftly. i'm sir. it has her attempt to instigate an unpopular economic package on funded tax cuts sent the markets reeling and the pound plunging . in a bid for political survival, she sat to finance minister quasi quite tango with whom she devised the policy. replacing him with form a foreign minister, jeremy hunt,
12:04 am
who reversed the controversial plan. and despite this rallying cry, miss baker, i am a fighter, a note which she did. the conservative party chairman said they expect to have a new leader by friday next week. and if members rally around, one candid it, the new prime minister could even be named on monday. my job has concerns about chairman is to ensure that if there are 2 candidates in a rapid way acting in the national interest or membership can make their views. known. content is include from a chancellor wishes to knock, but there is still anger in the party at his part in bringing down bars johnson penny, mordant leader, the house of commons, who also lost out the previous leadership campaign that may have trouble convincing members. she has enough experience and as the country is facing a change of prime minister for the 3rd time in 3 months, the opposition is calling for a general election. we can't have a revolving door of tails. we can't have another experiment at the top of the tory
12:05 am
party, but is an alternative, and that's a stable labor government and the public retitled to have their say, the hunt for the latest. conservative leader and u. k. prime minister is underway, sunny diagonal al jazeera. so who's rumored to be in the race to replace trust? first, there's former finance minister richie soon act who lost out to her in july's contest by just over 20000 party member votes. he's viewed by many as a responsible steward of public finances and had warned that trust his policies would lead to major economic problems. patty morgan's another contender. she came 3rd in july's contest and is a strong performer in parliament but lacks experienced in the top ministerial jobs . so alabama is also remit to be a candidate. she resigned as home secretary on wednesday after a breach of the ministerial code of conduct. and there's the man who replaced her grand shops. he's in this center right of the party. and there were reports that
12:06 am
former prime minister boris johnson will also run. he stood down after a series of scandals involving parties held at downing street during locked down, but remains popular, which some in the party. let's go now to andrew simon sir, who is on downing street sir andrew, does all of this mean an end to the crisis? always more political drama on the way doing very hard to tell heads a still spinning about the pace of events and how and damming the whole process has been in terms of trying to get this prime minister out. a lot of people are asking why didn't happen more quickly. it was obvious that things were wrong. she was out heard of her debt for a lot of people are saying. and also she did not have a mandate. now she knew that the moment everything went so wrong. after she sat her finance minister quasi quoting us friday. then the whole process started where she
12:07 am
was basically left in the dark as a prime minister. she was acting up as, as really a shadow to her new chancellor. and then of course, she was in the house of commons, sitting by his side looking gaunt and, and really quite focused on that just just in front of her, just not moving at all as he spelt out line by line, trashing most of her policies. and then of course, she moved on from there the next day to face her opposite number her, the leader of the opposition and kissed armor who really proceeded to lay in to her . but she somehow held her own. but that all fell apart within 24 hours. after predicting that she was her a fighter and not acquitted that she had to quit, that there was no way around it. so what we have right now is
12:08 am
a question mark over the conservative parties. competence in looking after the city . i'm looking after the finances. there's a loss of, of confidence all over the country, not just in its financial policies, but in the way, cares about the electorate. it seems that many people feel that it's so confined to trying to, to maneuver around each other to try and a campaign against each other. that's why there is some concern about maurice johnson possibly being back with an attempt to try to get back into power. richey soon act is the man accused of his undoing of johnson's undoing. they'll be a lot of trouble around that. so over the next few days, they'll be a preparation for the hustings. and there will be a lot of tension around as to as to what's gonna happen because a 1922 committee wants a very quick decision they want. there's a possibility that could be a decision by monday, if enough folks go through
12:09 am
a 100 votes, the bar has been risen quite considerably. have to be a 100 votes for candidates. so the be a maximum of 3 candidates. now, if it's down to 2 or 3, then it goes to the conserved membership online voting. if it's down to one, it will be automatic. there will be that prime minister named and it will be on monday. and andrew, for our international view, is wondering what the heck this is all about. we're reminded of course, that this is a parliamentary system that the next prime minister isn't chosen by the country, but by the party with the biggest majority and its members. but there are also climbers for a general election. how could that possibly happen? well, it's unlikely to happen because there is a position that the conservative party holds is, is absolutely disastrous right now. it's very low in the polls. it would get decimated if there was a general election at the labor party is mobilized for that to happen. it is now
12:10 am
something like the highest lead its hand in the poll since well for 2 decades. it's in a good position. a people have moved away from the conservative party in their droves . there is no doubt about that. so the conservative party is gonna do some reinvention about the way it communicates with its, with its core support and how it's conveys, oh what, what it's real meaning is because it's lost that solid reputation as being a guardian of the economy. that is in danger, is popularity, has really wayne to an extent where a lot of people are very alarmed and re simmons lie for us on downing street. thank you. you as president joe biden has said you k prime minister list trust was a great partner on international cooperation. i. the british with barbara and frances president, emmanuel, my crohn, has expressed sadness that her resignation left austin france as
12:11 am
a friend of the british people wishes possibility to and in this context of war and tensions over the energy crisis, it's as important but great britain starts out again, on the part political stability, and that's all i wish for you to jump on a personal level. i'm always sad to see a colleague lease, and i hope that stability will come back. okay, we're delving into this a little bit more. i'm joined by mandy reed, who's the leader of the you case, women's equality party. she joins me now from london, not the longest of legacies for less trust. how do you think she's going to be remembered? i think she is going to be remembered as a complete basket case of a prime minister. and i think that reputation will be rightly deserved for the last 44 days have been catastrophic for the country for our democracy, for our economy. and she presided over that, she can't blame external events. she told us the conservative party,
12:12 am
what her platform was gonna be. she ignored people trying to counselor towards a different direction. and so i do think she's got to take responsibility for how everything is panned out or of course at the bring cover of a change of leader. but do you think they'll be a seismic change to the governing party? i think that's unfortunately highly, unlike key. c this trust, i mean the 1st and last thing she did in the national interest was stepping down the governing party. if they want to act in the national interest. the new prime minister needs to crack on and call a general election immediately. that's the only way really to stabilize things in the long term because there's so much unrest. now there is a deep sense of justice, injustice at what's happened, the electorate feel disenfranchised, and that is not a good thing for any democracy. at any time, let alone
12:13 am
a time of such intense turmoil in this country, given the arrest you think it's even possible to, to coalesce around the so called unity candidate that the conservative party have been talking about? well they're gonna have to find a way to do that, otherwise they will. c and i don't think this would be a bad thing for the country by the way. they will find themselves moving rapidly towards political oblivion. and they will deserve it. because this is self inflicted and sure we're talking about this trust because she's resigned today, but to be honest, the seeds were sown prior to list trust taking office bars johnson prior to him to resume prior to her david cameron, all of them are culpable for the decline, we've seen for the chaos that emerged. there are a lot of chickens that have come home to roost. and the british people have paid the price. so whether the tories can coalesce around
12:14 am
a candidate or not as family business for them to sort out. but honestly, the science don't look good at talking about the candidates. so of course we've got richie c 9 former chancellor seen as a capable man when it comes to the economy, penny modem as well. but that's all about boys johnson. he's apparently on his way back from the caribbean, seriously, being seen as a possible candidate. what you understand to be the rationale behind seeing yesterday's man back in the hot seat. a few things and i know bars, townsend little because i work for him for a few years. when he was the mayor of london. he is perceived as being an electoral asset. and god knows the tories need something that resembles an electoral asset. after the disaster of this trust is premier ships, that's number one and he is seen as a good communicator and i think they are pretty desperate because you
12:15 am
recall it wasn't. c it's in very recent memory that 50 m p 's more than ever. c under the, under the tenure of any prime minister in british history resigned to protest, the dysfunction that virus johnson had presided over. so what we're looking at is a tory party in desperation. but actually, you know, all of this focus on the tory party, obscure some very, very important issues. we got more food banks in this country than branches of mcdonalds. today, the post office workers were on strike energy bills going through the roof. so british people are finding themselves staring down the barrel of a very grim winter, and what we have is the tory party that's indulging itself whilst people are on their knees. it's unforgivable and boris johnson, if they revert back to him, it'll tell the electorate everything they need to know about how much contempt the tory parties have for the voting people of this country. right. and whoever takes
12:16 am
over still has a huge list of challenges, a huge pile of challenges in the, in tray from day one in the job monday rate leader of the u. k. women's equality party. thank you. thank you. or trust this resignation has sparked jubilation for one british tabloid, which set up a live stream last week showing a photo of trust next to a head of lettuce to see which would last longer. the lettuce. as you can imagine, one thousands of people have been watching the daily style stream. the stunt was inspired by an article in the economist magazine which compared trust his grip on power to the shelf life of a lettuce. coming up on this news hour from london, tribal clashes in c dams blue now state kill more than a 150 people in 2 days. they reflect killing of a 4 year old girl highlights the shockingly high number of children murdered in south africa. and as cats are marked one months ago until its 1st world cup will
12:17 am
build up to the event with andy housman waterfront ah, at least 30 pro democracy protesters have been killed in chad. violence broke out after demonstrators barricaded roads and towards the government's party headquarters in jamaica in the capitol, police fire to rubber bullets and tear gas to disperse crowns that the country has been on edge since the death of president interest there be last year has been resistance to a transitional military council headed by his son, which is but boned elections to 2024 here. well, let's talk more about the situation in shadow of the way where you, who's a political and out analyst, he joins me from a boucher in nigeria. i welcome to the program, of course these demonstrations were timed as we sat there to coincide with the date the military had initially promised to hand over power. why haven't they done that
12:18 am
here? thanks for having me. where they have been because following the national dialogue, which the, the had sometime in from august to september, that was seen as see what's on the phone for the legitimacy of the traditional government. right. so in, on the 5th of october, my debbie, the, the president didn't know the, did the, the, the peer to be delayed or pulled back by 2 years. so is because of the, you know, the national dialogue and p d as an able to achieve drink office. you see that as a supplement legitimacy, you know, all of his rule. and that's why we're seeing that extension. you forget that the rugged, big segment of the chatham public did not approve of the outcome office. so some of the, the peace deal and even the national dialogue. and that's why people started to did
12:19 am
. i was senior protest and was into the what do you think the opposition and protest is fear, the most democratic elections will continue to be delayed and delayed, possibly permanently. what i think the point had really feared the most is this continue grotesque to that reprehensible actor but by the, by the military. because in just a short period of time, which is a hours of protests to be over. 40 people have me keep reading real fast and saying 50, you know, i don't people wounded if you look at the number of wounded, i'm very sure that by tomorrow morning, the number of the this approach be going to increase because 300 is more small number so even though people do want election on the actually are fear for the fact that the agreement between that it's on the should appear that about an extended
12:20 am
that might lead to the me to leaving office because of him promise to more period before. and the premise was brooklyn was stop them from, from breaking up from his again. so i think there's really concerned about the military extending his rule. i think continuing this violation of human rights on a violation of disruption puts down a life the u. n. is condemned to violence, so also has chad full, mclean, new power, france. but france was also supportive. the former president, they saw him as an ally in the fight against so called terrorist groups. do you think france indirectly or directly has helped to embolden the current situation? yes, yes, frank has emboldened my mom. i did it because when he took power in april there was a lot of condemnation even within the context it's of africa. but what we saw. busy was yeah, what i, what i was see, it's true that really legitimize the be cool because prison micro
12:21 am
visited this is did him out essentially the use his image to, to give, lend credence to, to, to, to the rule and give credibility to my mother being particular so that i really kept the, the, the political process within the country because when, when, when that was done so many years ago. so that, you know, at the middle stumbling blocks. so truly, if we transition to, to democratic rule. and for many people it wasn't helpful. political analyst of the way i grew speaking to me live for a future many thanks. well the rest comes as chad declare a state of emergency over flooding, which has impacted more than a 1000000 people. rains of overwhelmed the charles river that runs north, close to the border with cameron behalf of the capital in germane, arizona, the water, the flooding has also overwhelmed the market town of cassandra,

12:33 am
a way of containing the price of gas to try unstable, higher inflation of the threat of recession. that stalks many of the economies in the block. the $27.00 member states, of course, find themselves effectively on the front line of an energy war with moscow, the weapons possession of gas prices prior to the war. and ukraine. russia provided 40 percent of the blocks energy needs since then that's dwindled to a trickle. and as they seek alternative supplies, the gas prices sword some 300 percent since the beginning of the year. now a couple of measures they have managed to agree on in the past fortnight that a useful in this regard. a wind full tax on the profits of energy companies also, and a whole raft of measures trying to get individual states to curve their own domestic consumption. but what they haven't managed to find agreement on things like the collective purchasing power of the 27 members of the lawful coming together as one single big gas buyer on the international markets,
12:34 am
able to demand lower prices. and the other thing, of course, is the price cap above which we use if you would not be willing to go, they may make progress on the 1st of those $2.00, there is a draft text containing commission proposal that is said to be relatively close to agreement. but the 2nd, the price cap is likely to remain elusive because, as you alluded to, there is conflict between france and germany. france once a capital with a number of other southern european less went off a member states germany vehemently against a price cap. it's been very crazy, a highly criticized putting a lot of money into subsidizing its own gas prices, but feel the price cap would lead to a shortage of supply and that conflict. i think he's likely to stymie this problem for some time yet and join all the while the complex ukraine casting a long shadow over the european union. yes, studies the other big agenda topic of course, seeking ways to continue to help you crane over the medium term in the long term,
12:35 am
particularly with its energy infrastructure, helping to try and restore some of the problems we were hearing about a little earlier on the 27 leaders heard in the council meeting room today, directly from below mid lensky, the ukrainian president video link. he told them that russia is preparing an impending large scale disaster. he said, having mind a damn at a hydroelectric plant in the south of ukraine at a place called culture. that he believes these mind civil ready being charged. and if they are detonated he, it was each of the rocket flooding of some 80 settlements in the south, including the port city of her song. he called for an international mission to visit krakowski. he used the opportunity as well to ask for more defences to guard against these ariel bombardments of ukrainian cities recently. and he warned the ukrainian leaders that president putin was deliberately planning a new wave of migration heading towards europe targeting these energy installations,

ah right as now, just one month ago until the world cup kicks off in castle andy, which isn't as more now from tele. ah. well, since the wilco was awarded to cat, so in 2010, this country has been completely transformed. the doha skyline is pretty much double in width and in height $200000000000.00 has been spent on new infrastructure . we've got new roads, we got a new metro system, a new airport, increasingly for world cup, we have a new stadiums and the all important countdown clock with one month to go. i've been taking a closer look at whether or not this country really is ready to host the middle
12:45 am
east 1st. welcome. the for some, the world cup party has already started this group of gone, a fans live and work in cattle. they'll get to see that scene play in a country they've helped to transform although it was just part of the head of world full has been underlining the message that this will be a world cup for all everyone will be welcomed to the tournament regardless of their origin, back ground religion, gender, sexual orientation or nationality catalyst capital. doha is being ready for the arrival of more than a 1000000 football fans. while behind me here, you can make out the fee for the fan festival. that's where up to 40000 supports is . can watch matches on big screens and, and in this direction,

the main road along the sea front will be close to traffic from november, the 1st making way for what's being called a global st. carnival that can entertain, of the 70000 people at any one time. or late stadiums or less than 40 kilometers away from the center of dough. ha. never before will so many well cut fans be in such close proximity. what is the logistical challenge of making sure fans on match days off safely and swiftly moved around the country. you mentioned the challenges of the compact nature. i think it in it's, it's more the opportunity with the transport network that we have in katara, especially the public transport. and you know, i used the metro going to many matches during the arrow cup for example. and it's incredibly convenient. people come to the world cup to have a great experience. they come to meet different people from different countries. so i think that it's organic, it's natural, it just happens. so you have, you know, everybody from saudi arabia all the way down to morocco. i think mingle linger,
12:47 am
and catherine to has a diverse city in and of itself. kettles national team has been in a 6 month training camp ahead of their will cut w, a build up designed to overcome the sporting odds statistically. ah, the chance of cut are beating the netherlands in a world cup are very small. hopefully, we can get a little bit of that togetherness, that creates a mindset on his spirit and a collective believe that the team is going to go out there and fight with everything they have cats. i will kick the world cup off against ecuador, at our date stadium. the team and the country insist they're ready to put on a world class performance with an unprecedented 12 year build up this tournament who's being scrutinized like can i other, the rights and the welfare of the workers who made it all possible of being quite rightly in the spotlight from day one and it's a story i don't you 0 has covered from every perspective this week. santa who sat

down with the ceo of castles organizing committee enough the cutter and began by asking him whether or not bringing the world cup to this country. i've sped up the reform process. when we speak about workers, it was to improve their living standards to make sure that their rights were upheld . and i think we've gone over and above what was envisage to happen in the span of 10 years. i don't think any country can claim to have done as much as scott has done in the past 10 years to improve the working conditions, living standards, the introduction of minimum wage to make sure that there's workers forums where they can voice their concerns and their complaints in a safe and anonymous way and these are all reforms that we feel proud of, those been a trailblazer in the region and has been recognized by international organizations that we work with, that the government works with such as the low and so forth. so do you still think criticisms out katara is facing regarding this issue is unfair. i believe
12:49 am
a lot of the criticism is unjust. i feel like, you know, people have used this as a way just to be able to bring cups out into disrepute. and i think it's just been an easy way for, for journalists using very lazy journalism to be able to find a way to criticize, to criticize the world cup here. you know, but it's something that we, we have worked harder because of we've, it's, it's fueled our confidence. and you know, all we have to do right now is just to show the world what an amazing world cup this will be. well, you could potentially travel to this world cup on a traditional dow bye. we tend to go ha pool to it is probably more likely that you will arrive at how much international airport. it's an apple that a lot of people do have some experience so, but normally as a transit point on a cancer, i race flight heading towards a different destination. but the airport in the country is now having to get used
