lose supporters not backing down due to be a report of propofol e.l.s.e.'s here tell us about a phrase that is fast becoming a rallying cry for the opposition welcome public film and the phrase is. a shock in turkish which translates as more or less everything will be fine or everything will be great now this phrase was said by akram in response to that decision by turkish president. of the one to actually hold a rerun of the election which got him a motu elected at the end of march that's going to take place on june twenty third and it seems that the phrase now has sort of resonated with his supporters and it's was actually at one point today the most tweeted hash tag on twitter at world white and also it's you can see it here at famous people in turkey such as. he is a very well known actor he has been hashed and has been tweeting it and also that
7:05 pm
people interesting lee in istanbul in turkey have actually written the phrase on like we're seeing here with this man on a piece of paper and then just took it to their clothes and they're walking around with it and so it's really resonated you're seeing it here on on someone else and you can find many many examples of this now there's more to it than that it means that if he's going to be fine we're in spring and we're heading into summer ok so the idea is that in june which is when the election is going to take place things are going to get better things are going to be fine and basically it's sort of a call almost of come amongst his supporters and actually some to our colleagues here in the turkish service and they tell me that's quite common for people in turkey to be to use metaphors and be quite playful on social media perhaps more so than in. in other languages so that's sort of playing into this idea of seeing a lot of photographs of flowers and sort of nice photographs and nice imagery which is going with this tweet ok with this all seems very optimistic why are they feeling so confident well for many reasons we saw in the report there that you know
7:06 pm
there are many things have happened actually just since this decision by russia by president. of the want of turkey at hold again and first and foremost it was very tight this election am actually only won by fourteen thousand votes since he actually came into office at the end of march he kind of seems to have gained a lot of support and popularity in that time and in fact at this decision could actually go against president frazier tired of everyone because in fact emotive could end up coming out of this next election in june with more than fourteen thousand votes in fact it could actually his margin could actually widen and and actually even people within president ever the ones at party have. been kind of split on the idea of this rerun they said that they should just accept the vote while others believe that it was a good decision so we'll definitely be keeping an eye on this story that's for sure
