the irish border off the brags that. when the u.k. finally leaves the european union the only land border between them bull beyond irish soil the so-called irish backstop is a plan to avoid checkpoints and border checks something many fear will endangered peace in northern ireland it would keep the u.k. in the customs union off to bragg's it leave campaign as an boris johnson supporters in the u.k. find that acceptable boris johnson has promised to solve the issue but in ireland they want specific proposals what's we cannot do and will not do and i know you understand this is a greets the replacement of illegal guarantee with a promise. our businesses need long term certainty and the people decide the norton sides need to know that their livelihoods their security under sense of identity will not be put at risk as a consequence of prices boris johnson is gambling that's a new deal brags that threat will make e.u.

leaders change the divorce deal and if they don't move he wants everyone to share the blame so i have one message that i want to land with you today. and that is that i want to find a deal i look kathleen at no deal i have a cyst it's called sequences both our country and and yours and yes of course we could do it the u.k. could certainly get through it but be in no doubt that tight come would be a failure of state craft for which we would all be responsible for us johnson leaves island without any concrete progress the neighbors have not solved the border problem yet. for more on this now i'm joined by our correspondent in london . barbara those 2 leaders today met and they were talking basically past each other is there any hope for ireland in the u.k.

to solve the border issue before the u.k. leaves the e.u. it's scheduled to leave at the end of october. this seems to be one chance friend and that is that 1st johnson reverts to the original e.u. plan and that meant a sort of curving out to a niche regulatory niche for northern ireland keeping it in the customs union and parts of the single market sort of give its a special status and therefore a sort of prevent that borders checks would need to be there at that of course we know was skeptic by the northern irish d u p then to reason they went back to russell's everything could change so if johnson goes back to this original plan i mean those papers are sort of still in the draw as they just need to be pulled out everything else is totally unrealistic because let's be serious we have 4 weeks now you cannot rewrite complicated agreement like that in so little time yeah i think

your woman in theresa may good to tell us all about that it looks as though lawmakers will reject the prime minister's call again for a snap general election the numbers are against gore's johnson so why is he trying yet again to get that election. he is trying so hard because he thinks he can really profit from it if he would sort of goes through the country campaign on the basis of being mr bars breck's it and sort of collect and scoop up all these bricks of votes out there he thinks he can sort of have a run of a runaway victory and the other side of course sees that today saying that time would work for them also the opposition and the tory rebels that the so-called rebel army that is just still sitting and they're in the house behind us they think that boris johnson does not want to stick to the anti and no deal law that they

managed to get into legal function today so he is looking for loopholes his people and his jurists are looking for ways to sort of work around it so they really want to tie his hands they're ready to take him to the high court if you should not obey this law in the middle of october so they're still out there fighting and they will not give him an election before it's not safe that britain is not going to crash out of the e.u. on the 31st without a deal and barbour what a bell this is spent in the parliament for 5 weeks that begins tonight is there anything that lawmakers can do to prevent them basically from being sent home. no absolutely nothing and that is one of the problems and maybe weaknesses of the british system which doesn't know a written constitution and doesn't have written rulebooks well these things are laid down in most of the western countries it would be completely impossible and it

is unheard from off that government would just say i don't like you i don't like your politics go home go away you nasty parliamentarians which is pretty much what boris johnson has done so this is possible on the british rules and so took boris johnson is sort of really pulling and pushing these rules as far extending them as far as they will go but still he is somehow within his rights and parliament really tonight one step finished was telling him again he can't have an election they all go home to their constituencies yet he'll have 5 weeks without any pressure from westminster or to correspond barbara his will for force tonight in london or thank you. well here in germany political leaders are demanding answers how do they tell the council elect a neo nazi to be its new mayor stefan yosh from the n p d party stood for the

position and he was unopposed and he even won backing from mainstream parties such as german chancellor angela merkel's conservative c.d.u. but now they want him thrown out of office. that is not big a small industrial park a bakery a hotel and a pizza place but now many people in germany are interested in knowing how the small town and has in the center of germany elected stephanie out a few days ago the politician from the extreme right wing n.p.t. announced on facebook that he was elected in the simple administrate to stop but from the people for the people he added to his post the vote was unanimous including votes from chancellor angela merkel c.d.u. and her coalition partner s.p.d. one of the council members who voted for yonks defended the choice if those who can and we are trying to help the people and address their issues that's all party membership doesn't play a role for us as well as stephanie jacks has worked for the n.p.t.

and the regional and national level for the keys but in authorities have twice sought and failed to ban the party as a threat to germany's democratic order the domestic intelligence service has kept close tabs on the party yaks has even shown up in the agency's report on fright wing extremists but he was democratically elected also because no other candidate was available the fuse of the president's a mixed. kind and it's a bad that there was no alternative no wonder he got into an event will never end so human time call would have flashed up to maybe it will have an effect and make politicians think about how their decisions are received by most people you know putting chiefs all by their me outside their lives with a stick and on strangling. we have better people for the job is over. for each no politicians were shocked by the choice. is here yuck she is a nazi even after the attempt to ban the n.p.t. he stayed loyal to the party which is close to hitler's nazi party so you know it

isn't so much of so in a step in. the protest is now also mounting in berlin. as it's going to indignation justified yesterday there was a 1st special meeting of the committee and has a. aim is to apply for revoke ation of the election of that candidate implemented and put another candidate and his place and then we will have to discuss how something like this could have happened. to replace yeah the local council 1st need to find another candidate for the job. and incredible story let's take it now to our political correspondent we don't even have much time she's following it here in berlin good evening to you leon let's start with the basics here the n.p.t. party. well the n.p.t. certainly is an extreme right wing past with the links to the neo nazi scene here

in germany and as we heard in the report the domestic intelligence agency has for years have been observing the n.p.t. and there have been several attempts to ban the patty they call.
