where the supreme court has unanimously ruled the prime minister bar's jonson's especially of parliament was unlawful the judges found that the suspension prevented parliament from doing its job without reasonable justification the decision means lawmakers can reassemble quote as soon as possible which would deal a hammer blow to johnson's plans for taking britain out of the e.u. supreme court president brenda hill had this to say but in dancing the ruling. this court has already concluded that the prime minister's advice to her majesty was. void of no effect this means that the order in council which led was also a lawful void and of no effect and should be quashed. joining me now from in front of the supreme court in london is our correspondent shot of fast shell of the advice was as we heard unlawful void and of norfolk strong words no
2:03 pm
ambiguity there what does it mean. well an extraordinary day and a groundbreaking ruling this is what judicial experts here say basically we've just heard lady hale there presiding over this case in her ruling saying that boris johnson prevented polman from carrying out its duty at a very crucial time in you history and then they decided the supreme court decided in the end that it was indeed unlawful to prorogue parliament so really quite an extraordinary decision then parliament can go back in session now when this ruling came out this morning there were a lot of demonstrators out here that really celebrates of this as a victory for democracy and for the rule of law and of course this ruling also sets a precedent for all the incoming prime ministers not to probe for 0 problem and for such a long time and show that strong reactions are coming in from all sides to that historic
2:04 pm
decision so what happens next as a result of this historic decision. well parliament by law can go back and session and that is exactly what for example gina demanded gina milla is the business woman that brought forward this case against the government and let's listen in what she had to say after the ruling. today mean for you this prime minister must have the door of parliament tomorrow m.p.'s must get back and be ready and vote in hoping maybe i'm going to be a government shutdown thank you. already been matched john bercow the speaker of parliament announced. before that parliament's doors would open up back tomorrow morning so that means parliament
2:05 pm
goes back and sessions m.p.'s are coming back the labor party conference that is happening right now the largest opposition party of course the party conference is being closed down and parliament will be back in session tomorrow and many supporters of this this isn't see this as a great victory for constitutional law and for democracy but what does this mean for boris johnson this is a huge setback for him politically isn't it. it absolutely is it's really a devastating blow to him and we are now hearing many calls for him to resign from office to resign from number 10 as prime minister the labor opposition party is calling for his resignation but also the scottish national party and boris johnson right now is in new york that is where the news hit him he is there for the u.n. general assembly where he is due to hold his 1st big speech in front of world leaders tonight and that will be quite a humiliation an embarrassment for him when he goes to take the space stage there
2:06 pm
at the united nations and of course these calls for him to resign that pressure will mount in the coming days he johnson himself has already said that he will not meet those demands that he of course will follow the ruling there is nothing else he can do polman will be back in session but he doesn't intend to resign as prime minister the question though is how long can he really cling onto power after such a ruling that basically said that he has miss let the queen in advising her to close down parliament shall have thoughts in london thank you very much for that. it would have been you up to date with some of the stories making news around the bud israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu has met its political rival benny gantz to discuss a unity government and of rotating prime ministership the 2 lead israel's largest parties but neither want a clear mandate in last week's elections if the talks fail israel faces the

2:12 pm
once we reach our car he disappears. we want to meet a member of the militants that our guides was so afraid of it took weeks for contact arrange an opportunity in a secluded spot outside of the camps we can't verify if the man really is who he claims to be but his story checks out with other accounts he doesn't want to space filmed he's too scared his commander might find out he gave us an interview. some people came to our village and asked whether we want to govern ourselves they told us you don't have any rights in your own country we're here to help you take control of your land if you agree come and join us that's how they convinced us they also gave us arms training after that so i joined the group. that was in

2:14 pm
the militant tells us that after some 20500 fighters live in the camps a figure we can't verify we want to know why he agreed to talk to us. if we cause trouble and kill people here the government of bangladesh will also start killing us that's why i disagree with us as actions here but i want to fight in myanmar for a long. faced with the might of the me and my army across the river this isn't a fight they are likely to win the stage is set for a refugee crisis that isn't going away soon. now back to the un general assembly in new york now high on the agenda for was leaders are growing tensions between iran and saudi arabia backed by washington u.s. president dr trump has been increasingly vocal in his condemnation of iran both
2:15 pm
tramp and his iranian counterpart hassan rouhani assad to speak at the assembly and let's take a look 1st as to how we got here. last year the u.s. from the iran nuclear deal a pact which promised to ease sanctions on iran in return for curbs on its nuclear program trumped and impose fresh sanctions on iran then this year iran announced that it had boosted its stockpiles of enriched uranium and that's off the components used to make nuclear weapons then in the past few months the u.s. has blamed iran for a wave of attacks on oil tankers in the strait of hormuz a key shipping route in the gulf region though of course iran denies those allegations and then the u.s. is also blaming iran for 2 attacks on to oil facilities in saudi arabia iran has also denied those claims now france britain and germany have joined the united states in leveling those accusations against their run they are calling for iran to
2:16 pm
enter a new talks aimed at both soaring the nuclear deal a french president is pushing for trying to meet iranian president hassan rouhani trump says he will not rule out anything now for his spot iran's president hassan rouhani wants other leaders to stop interfering in iran's affairs and the middle east region this is what hasan rouhani had to say when he arrived in new york. we have come to new york for the u.n. general assembly and for other meetings on the sidelines. we hope that in this very sensitive situation that we will be able to convey the message of regional peace and the end of any interference in the persian gulf and the middle east. this is a message from the great nation of iran which is under the pressure of
2:17 pm
a cruel economic war. the teacher was full audio and our nation is a nation of resistance and perseverance and we want to all sides to return to their commitments and to the loan. done in ghana middle east analyst an expert in iran joins me now in the studio for some analysis welcome don and so we heard how some rouhani then a european leader has have always accused of being too hard on iran but now this support the stance of donald trump that iran was behind those attacks on the oil facilities is it a shift in the european position on iran i think there is a difference between supporting the policies of donald trump towards iran and. supporting the narrative or the interpretation of the cause of the recent attack on the saudi aramco refinery the europeans are not with the american policy and i
2:18 pm
don't see any shift here they have said time and again they don't support next one pressure on iran and they want return of the united states to the commitment of the j.c. of the so-called nuclear deal that is a united nations security council document of course and a binding contract and. i found the statement very interesting that the 3 policy should today given the fact that even boris johnson was a bit more probably pro trump. at the time when he was foreign minister he was one of those. that was the bill completely behind this. very proud of its achievements so i think boris johnson still stands with the european on this point but what they have said is they believe that there is no other explanation no other interpretation and that iran must be involved in this attack and i hope that the europeans have some solid intelligence that supports this and it's not just a political statement so why do you think that they made this statement given that it is surprising at this juncture and let me know that a french businessman and mcconnell is pretty keen that this is
2:19 pm
a face to face meeting between donald trump and hasan rowhani perhaps at the sidelines of the general assembly at the united nations while they make the statement that probably because they believe that it's the case that they believe that iran is somehow involved either supporting the so-called who the militias in yemen or other groups in the middle east by proxy that the remains might be technologically and strategic lee involved in this operation and i have no facts that can substantiate it but i find it interesting because of course it's not necessary it wasn't to iran's harm it was more like kind of to saudi arabia's harm showing the world that this is a serious crisis no person got injured or killed but it was a very serious crisis and it's detrimental for everyone so once a better return to the nuclear deal but the iranians have said very clearly they are not against need to in general but they don't support negotiations because they say if we want to negotiate we 1st have to all come back to the table and that means again respecting our commitments as president as for ministers that are said
2:20 pm
a couple days ago in a c.n.n. interview the americans need to respect the signature we don't have those trump obama it was the united states that have signed it and if they don't return to the table under the conditions and the framework of the g.'s if you a we will not negotiate and i don't think that they're going to reconsider that position ok donald trump is due to address the u.n. general assembly today what are you expecting from came on iran be flee if you can very hard just. well because you can also be sometimes surprising i'm not sure if he knows now what he's going to say in a couple of hours and if it's probably going to be also a bit distracted but of course he wants to have. a glamorous appearance he remembers that last time he was addressing going to the united nations assembly he was being laughed at and i think he doesn't want this to happen again so i think he wants to prove firmness on iran but with all like criticism towards dumb trumps of foreign policy one could see it as
2:21 pm
a major achievement from his side and that needs to be also said that he didn't start a war yet that he didn't give in to some of the hard liners in the falcons in the white house and that is something good so apparently trump really for whatever reason doesn't want to war with iran and he's ready maybe to make also some compromise if it's not going to be backfiring too much to his presidential campaign that he's got a middle east analyst thank you very much feel like you found it says don't go now any rights group amnesty international is calling for an investigation into excessive use of force by police against demonstrate as many peaceful protests turned violent with clashes between the 2 sides did obvious been speaking with 2 time police offices who gave depp's pectin on the situation. joseph it has agreed to meet us although he says he does not trust the press so we'll mind recording our conversation ok he is a retired police officer and
2:22 pm
a staunch supporter of the hong kong government side in the current crisis the side that he feels is not representative accurately in most news outlets. i start awarding the nails. since try. watching just a white or news report but you know because i can still get in touch what was happening from all those messages from my friends because the longer the protests last the most strident both camps refused to communicate with each other internet forums are shaping and polarizing opinions in each group rumors and conspiracy theories are rampant and when both sides meet things often get our. own. alfred wong is also a retired police officer when he walks through his neighborhood it is hard for him to miss messages from the anti government protesters they have set up

a so-called lennon wall near his home. while they do that here it says police are murdering people but in fact the protesters a very aggressive the police are just maintaining law and order tot. mom has just returned from a long stay abroad and says he doesn't recognize his city anymore. in his spare time he sometimes helps out at police stations as a volunteer handing out food and drinks to the front line offices and while he says he understands demands for greater democracy he doesn't think they are realistic. well call that you think it's al it it might i used to serve in the colonial police fals case eldar then the british government could decide on everything cadwell hong kong belongs to china case at pace there are problems at the hong kong government can't solve it makes sense that beijing intervenes. woman. but few and fewer hong
2:24 pm
kong is a willing to accept beijing's authority and the clashes between police and protesters escalating with petrol bombs and bricks thrown by radical protesters and police being accused of deliberately hurting demonstrators and passes by. in a recent poll almost 3 quarters of respondents said that they thought police was using excessive violence joseph also started his career in colonial times does not agree at my time we are taught that when. writers are for owing petrol bomb it you'll. shut them if blood runs. but now i think they are doing a great job in the sense that they. did restrain he's glad he says that he is not on active duty anymore. soccer's biggest names hit
