2:04 pm
plans with tax cuts were reversed. now, she's out the shortest serving prime minister in the u. k. history, i cannot deliver the mandates on which i was elected by the conservative party. i have therefore spoken to his majesty the king to notify him the i'm resigning as leader of the conservative party and doing started last friday. shoot sector finance minister wasn't courting, but blaming him for getting it wrong had no effect on the markets. the pound wasn't recovering on the cost of government borrowing was still going up to say a nervous trust walked out on questions. sure. i got a 5 minute in came political, heavyweight jeremy hunt as new chancellor, trashing virtually all of the trust plans, saving billions of dollars and calming the markets. he cannot make credibility. ah, the next day she was confronted by opposition. labor leader kissed darma for the
2:05 pm
1st time, she seemed to be defiant. i am a fighter. i know i hate 24 hours later she was told to quit. no, the conservative party is engulfed in leadership elections again. and those in charge say they'll have to be quick. i think we are deeply conscious all the imperative of the national interest or resolving this. clearly angry contenders include former chancellor richie sooner, but they're still anger in the party over his part in bringing down bars. johnson and johnson does look like trying to make a comeback. his ally say it will be in the national interest. any more than the river house of commons may be a good unity candidates, but may not have enough experience to convince the party. 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 chaos. we can't have another experiment at the top of the tory
2:06 pm
party, but is an alternative, and that's a stable labor government. and the public are entitled to have their say, the conservative party is split, it's damage and it's still shaken by what's happened. the last thing it means right now is a general election opinion polls show it would be decimated. andrew simmons, alger 0 downing street, a poll rece has more from london on boris johnson's possible. come back. what we know so far? what pays to be the case is that johnson is flying back from a holiday in the caribbean. he's gathering support as he's gathering donors for a campaign run by the same thing that help went in the 2019 general election as a, as a walk top group. around the back boris campaign, he seems to have around about 40 m pays in, supported him. so far it does need to reach the threshold of
2:07 pm
a 100 m p. 's. if he's going to stand in this pilot. now there is a ongoing investigation into far as johnson about obligations. eli to parliament over parties held during lockdown, given his shots part of the past. that's unlikely it's put him off. and then even though his, his don't like him in his party and there are many of them may be swayed by the fact that he does seem to be an electro asset. he's got this sort of old, well, the, are the critic air about him. but with what used to be called the common touch, essentially he appeals to working class voters, even though he's one of the privileged elite. and that helped him to break down the so called red wall of traditional labor seats in the 2019 general election. well, let's take a look at a closer look at trust is other possible with lightness. first, there is richie soon. i qu last to her in july's leadership contests,
2:08 pm
and i was chocolate, embarrass johnston's government support to see him as a safe option. and he correctly forecasts the problems trust his economic policies would cause plenty more than is another contender. she's the leader of the house of commons and came 3rd in july's contest. she's a strong performer in parliament, but lacks experience in top ministerial rose and swell. a brave woman could be a candidate. she resigned as home secretary on wednesday, and then there's the man who succeeded her grand chefs. he back tonight in the last leadership race assignment. ashwood is a professor of politics and international studies at the open university. he says none of the front runners is likely to be a silver bullet and an election is an unlikely prospect. i think of the people who are that richie, so not it does look like the leading candidates. i think he's been strengthened by looking more moderate than trusts. and you know,
2:09 pm
his predictions about trust is economic policies. certainly being borne out by the experience that we've seen over the last month, but again, he is reputation with party members. i think it's still some marks precarious. you know, he was, seems to have been one of the fast to remove bars, johnson. so at this stage, i think the party faces a very difficult choice, and you know, none of the options look particularly good evening rashly. so knock is probably the, the least worst of the bunch. the party is doing so badly in the polls. you know, we, every day we seem to have a new paul, this is a historic life. the party would be in, i lighted, ready by going to the country at this stage of whoever leads them. so i think the new prime ministers don't come in. we'll seek to try and repair the damage of the trust administration and more general kind of belief in the government. the united

2:12 pm
a russian forces to be able to utilize those kamikaze drones. we have, over the course of the last week on many occasions, heard presidents lensky and many other officials, bemoaned the fact. and because they are saying that the iranians are supplying support to russian forces in ukraine and the ukrainians are claiming that the iranians are supplying these kamikaze drones to russian forces in ukraine. of course, we should mention that the iranian government has repeatedly denied that they are supplying the support or drones to the russian federation with regard to their war here in ukraine. elite is a holding another round of talks in brussels to solve an energy crisis driven by the war in ukraine is the 2nd summit in as many weeks i, one of the sticking points continues to be a cap on gas prices. that there could be a breakthrough with the financial times of 14, the german chancellor has softened his position to the proposal. cost of energy has
