10:05 pm
or not long after the last leadership contest ended. bet so now being taken on, he will fill the old you prime minister's shoes in the frame to replace. let's trust, who resigned after just 6 weeks is form a chance let receive. so you're not the leader of the commons, penny morton, on the certain bars. johnson, i think it's pretty chaotic. i think the conservatives more interested in their own personal again, and they are in what's right for the country. the 1st johnson is going to run to get students to be silly today to arrange everyone saying, bring forest back all night. speak to everyone you see on the news. bring boy respect. so this, bring it back. the man who resigned in july after one scandal to many, is now gathering support for push to regain number 10. johnson is still being investigated on accusations. he lights a parliament about parties. he attended your encode with 19 locked downs. if he does or on he'll need to persuade at least a 100 fellow and piece to support him. but his appeal among voters could help him
10:06 pm
sway those of his colleagues who doubt his moral credentials with will be potentially off. the prime minister seems to general election 2019. that means we have to think about that legitimate digits. him see question that the public will be asking themselves. and also about who could win the next election that obviously important for any political party at the time. so at the moment i would lean towards boris johnson, i think he will still have some questions. arms around obviously that the investigation, the crisis at westminster may be embarrassing for the conservatives on, for britain. for others, the government's economic mismanagement have more serious consequences. a short road from parliament. this community center provides meals for an increasing number of people who are struggling. the volunteers feel the government in fighting is making matters worse. i have seen so much in the last the weight. by nowhere near have we seen the front of the storm. it's coming people working doves on
10:07 pm
able to make endlessly, any more the government needs to look at what's happening on the front line and then know morton's was the 1st to officially declare her candidacy. on friday, she might hope those who could stomach neither sudak nor johnson will choose her as a unifying candidate in a party leadership vote that's due to take place next week. the fallout from liz trust is brief, time in office has left deep divisions in a government and party whose unity was already falling apart. conservative em pays, may spend the coming days deciding whether they want to vote another new face into office or go back to one. they know bars. johnson paul reese out is era london on its crossing even monkeys following his story from london as well. and so me, when that the threshold of 100 and peas was announced last night, it was thought to be too high for boris johnson has that now changed
10:08 pm
it's very difficult to say right now because nothing official has been released, but it's very clear that a significant amount of mental is building behind bars johnson richey soon and of course, pay the mortar the only candidate so far to come out and officially say that she is in the running for the prime minister ship. nevertheless, short while ago, forrest johnson apparently told one of his political allies that he would be quote, unquote up for it. if you're looking at the numbers, according to m. p. 's within the conservative party that have made that points of view. oh, put about who they were back. we should see like it's firmly ahead of us johnson penny mordant, trailing behind those to you. but the question is, by 2 pm on monday, whether or not the party can coalesce around a single individual, or whether this race will be opened up to policy members. and those policy members could skew the results, complete the around $130000.00 of them. the all of them,
10:09 pm
of course, will vote so let's say around $80000.00 to vote. most of them are based in the south east of england, most of the male in the sixty's, according to some analysts, most of them may prefer bars johnston. so even looking at these figures now, what we may see played out next friday could be very different. any oversee concerns about the country being in the grip of a quite profound political and economic chaos right now on the concerns that there could be actually a bar johnson premier ship a come back would just bring more instability yeah, there are huge concerns about that. so of course, this is a election that the vast majority of the population have no saying this is internal baseball within the conservative party. and i was fueling a tremendous amount of frustration across the country over this entire process.
10:10 pm
or something of course, is somebody who led the conservative party to something majority of the 2019 election, which is why many conservative n p feel that he is the strongest candidate for the role that he has more legitimacy and potentially becoming prime minister again. nevertheless, times of change haven't. we've had the panoramic since then. we've had a something he was money by control. the see he was showing by the supreme court to have broken the law in probing parliament to spending parliament to them. it's about all important bricks. it's a period that the country went through. he's shown to broken his own rules over covert lot downs as well. and just remind our view is, is subject to an investigation of privileges committee investigation to see whether he knowingly misled parliament during the whole locked down period of scandals. and if such, he could be out of a seat within 2 months. so. so can you imagine if he ends up becoming prime
10:11 pm
minister potentially being forced to take part in a bi election for his own political seat? so for the many m. p 's, he's just simply simply far to talk to back saying that anything could happen in a week. yes, it does take some imagination, but thank you very much. i will relate to from westminster. ah, you kind and washer accusing each other of pining to blow up a huge dam, as forces from both sides per path. 4th, timing out to be one of the most crucial battles of the war. ukrainian presidents as russian forces have planted explosives in the nova. cava down in harrison warning that its destruction would be catastrophic. volume is landscape urged the west to take action to stop russia. but a russian installed official and harrison as also accused ukraine of striking that
