‘party. | ‘ party. i would not ‘party. i would not go on the labour party. i would not go that far but there are concerns about labour's performance is not doing as well as it should, is partly because we have a new prime minister who has a minor honeymoon ina bit minister who has a minor honeymoon in a bit of minister who has a minor honeymoon ina bit ofa minister who has a minor honeymoon in a bit of a bounce from that. there is anxiety within labour about advisement and because of labour's confusing position on brexit. so this is where he is trying to take the initiative on this key issue and this is all going to come down to. nobody quite knows if they have the numbers to win a no—confidence vote. it relies on a lot of different factors. they have the support of the minor parties, the s&p, but not
10:42 pm
the minor parties, the s&p, but not the lib dems. then it comes down to how many tory mps who are determined to try and stop and no—deal brexit will actually vote with labour on this issue and then to make it even more complicated, there's quite a small number of numbers of labour mps who actually want a brexit deal. and i do not know now because i've got my calculator on because there's so got my calculator on because there's so many problems here, how will add up so many problems here, how will add up in the end. you know, you mentioned, the obvious candidate and some of the opposition parties, but according to the telegraph that is has been sent to is that among system. you mentioned, the lib dems, not being supportive of this and their new leader is quoted as saying
10:43 pm
it is nonsense and particularly why it is nonsense and particularly why it is nonsense because frankly, there are other people who might be leading the labour party in other circumstances who have a better chance of pulling it off then mr jeremy corbyn and jeremy corbyn is not determined to allow any more space of some sort of government —— is determined. names being bandied about who could actually try to form this temporary government to stop and no—deal brexit. you can see why he has moved into the space. let's look at the ft what we talk about the same subject because they have it on theirfront the same subject because they have it on their front page as well, jeremy corbyn calls for an alliance to topplejohnson jeremy corbyn calls for an alliance to topple johnson and jeremy corbyn calls for an alliance to topplejohnson and install and no deal —— and install a no—deal brexit. here we are and what happens in between now and then? more
10:44 pm
speculation on how much carnage we will begin in september and october of this year. it is going to be a fascinating roller coaster ride in westminster in the country. as i said earlier, we do not know if they have the numbers for a no—confidence vote have no idea what boris johnson's plans are. dominic cummings, and how closely is boris johnson listening to dominic cummings? will he take the country to the brink? will enough people try to the brink? will enough people try to thwart him was make this a difficult decision, do you risk your careerfor this? difficult decision, do you risk your career for this? that a previous attempt at a no—confidence vote in that field. i do not know how it is going to pan out. will that may be a significant number of

to may be those moving forward who whether they think they've got a future westminster is another issue, but that, that could be the strength of the movement against boris johnson. no wonder he was talking today with number ten was talking today, about this unholy alliance between the remainders and the eu. yes, he talked about a collaboration. there is a line in here that intrigues me about the letter from jeremy corbyn's timing. at the earliest opportunity, when we can be confident in our success. that is the line from the beginning, we are looking at the first two weeks in the september. a little bit of wiggle room in those two weeks. it is interesting also that one of
10:46 pm
the reasons he may struggle to get the reasons he may struggle to get the numbers because he may be holding out. so, that will make life difficult he does say that he will then campaign fora difficult he does say that he will then campaign for a second referendum, he did not say where she would ask for in a second referendum. would he go for the status quo or would he go for revoking article 50 ? status quo or would he go for revoking article 50? these are questions that need to be answered. another thing is those people who in the central office who spend their lifetime putting back over what people have said in the past, past ten or 20 or 30 years, the quotes from jeremy corbyn about his view of the eu. they have still to be actually given the prominence that some people would love to give them.
10:47 pm
he has been as critical of the eu over the years as capitalists and all the rest of it, as anybody. given that he was on their main site at that point, shall we leave that. i suspect you may return to that at some point. take us to the front of the ft with the other story. this is the ft with the other story. this is the bigger picture of the world economy for a variety of reasons. the bigger picture of the world economy for a variety of reasonsm to be quite a serious illness. a combination of a slow down in germany, quite dramatic, worse figures than our own where it is a powerhouse of the european economy and then china also hitting heavy

weather as a result of the trade we re weather as a result of the trade were primarily for the united states. it was interesting that donald trump, doing the america first. quite defiant donald trump we nt first. quite defiant donald trump went back on some of the tariffs that he was going to impose on chinese goods and obviously, he is thinking about the impact on the american economy. which is doing better than most. which is doing better than most. which is doing better than most. what does this mean, it is not brilliant for britain if we are about to embark in a no—deal brexit which would harm out a no—deal brexit which would harm our economy. a no—deal brexit which would harm our economy. the brexiteers would argue the other way around. if germany is in trouble, maybe german business are going to start leaning and say can be avoided no—deal brexit? and i was thinking for my experience is that they are, they
10:49 pm
like their rules and the like the eu rules and even a downturn would not be enough to make them shift positions. before we shift positions. before we shift positions. it is bad economic news and that is very much reflected in the story. shall make the forecast here from the i think the us economy has enough strength to avoid a recession but the odds have clearly risen and they are higher than i am frankly co mforta ble are higher than i am frankly comfortable with. so that is even about what is widely seen as a booming us economy. and we have elections next year. one of the few things you can point to that he builds the success force. going to education. a subject close to your heart. talking about unconditional.

10:51 pm
not been in clearing for several years. but this trend towards unconditional offers which is easy to say, goodness me, if you get an unconditional offer, children let their a—levels slipped and all the rest of it, and the government are picking up on this and the new education secretary, this is the same government that is talking about how important it is to get diverse, more mobility and to education and this is one of the ways that is being used. has it gone too far? there is an argument that it has in the figures are too high, equally, people instinctively say, standards are lowered and the rest of it. but it is a very competitive business. what i find interesting about this is the comes a day after labour announcing that they would ban the use of predicted grades and wait until after the results. but
10:52 pm
the reason they were doing it is they were saying that the system was actually unfair towards minorities and they said that only 39% of the applicants were accepted and the we re applicants were accepted and the were talking about faith in the exam system. and actually i'm slightly surprised that there is no acknowledgement of them afterwards. let's turn our attentions to the independent, this is about her as she embarks on quite a journey.|j independent, this is about her as she embarks on quite a journey. i am quite impressed by this, possibly a month of sailing and of her across the atlantic, not the easiest ocean. weather is very unpredictablefi the atlantic, not the easiest ocean. weather is very unpredictable it can change dramatically. and attend the summit on climate change. you can
