11:01 pm
troops are holding out despite being out numbered by the russians. ah, i'm bri. gov is good to have you with us on this monday, british prime minister boris johnson has averted a threat to his leadership and survived a confidence vogue among members of his own party in parliament. johnson to night one, a clear majority, although 40 percent of them 40 percent voted against johnson's own. conservatives triggered the vote. a response to scandals over lockdown parties that the prime minister attended at the heights of the corona virus pandemic. here's the announcement of tonight's results. that hearing i can report as returning officer, 359 allots were cast no sport about us. that the
11:02 pm
vote in favor of having confidence embarrass johnston. theater was 211 folks, and a vote against was a 148 folks. and therefore, i can announce to parliamentary policy, does have come with and picking up on that mood, the prime minister boys johnson's book, just after the results were announced, hailing the results, describing it as a convincing wit. i'm grateful to colleagues, i'm grateful for as the school they give me, of course i understand that we need to do is come together a party and that has exactly what we cannot do. and what this gives us is the opportunity to put behind us all the stuff that i know the me you
11:03 pm
probably want to fix all for very long time to do our job, which is to focus on the stuff that i think the public actually want us to be talking about, which is what we are doing to help people this country are there was more is johnson speaking just few moments ago with me here at the big table is my colleague, alex forest whiting. she knows a thing or 2 about how it works. in westminster tonight, it's one of those moments that you don't forget, it's not every day you have a carpet, it's vote for a prime minister to begin with. he is spinning it saying we now can. we can find unity again in the conservative party and move forward. these numbers the these results do not speak to unity. they do not speak to unity. 59 percent of his party backs him. that's ok. 41 percent did not back him. that is not okay, and he has now got to somehow govern that party and govern the country, and hope that he will be able to galvanize them and make sure that they support him
11:04 pm
. and he's got very important votes and pieces of legislation that he has to get through with those numbers, given that they have got an a majority of ac atm piece is the, the party majority 148 voting against him. that is not a difficult, that is a very difficult situation for any prime minister and very difficult for boris johnson to try to govern with that. and we say he is a wounded leader. now moving forward. what does that mean? that if he can't wield power and carry out the business of the people as he supposed to do what's going to do while he is going to try to carry out the business of the of government. and as we say, he's just given a response to that vote, but to me that he didn't look convincing. that was not the julie a boris johnson who we normally say. i think that he must feel wounded and he was asked repeatedly, do you really think that's convincing?
11:05 pm
and he cat towing the the line. it's come from dining street convincing result, but it is not and it is going to be very difficult for him. he may be safe for the next year before they can have another confidence vote within the party, although even that could be challenged by m. p. 's. but he still got to convert and they've got very difficult piece of legislation that they've got to get through. and they've got the cost of living crisis in the u. k. that, that there's a food poverty fuel poverty. and inflation is rocketing and he has somehow got to prove it to the public that he's on their side that he has got support. and yet very clearly, he doesn't even have the support within his own party. so to hear from the outside, that feels like you are describing a perfect storm that would force a prime minister to either resign or to throw it all against the wall and see what sticks in coal early you like this. interesting, you say that because he has just been asked what about a snap election and he would not rule it out. now, in my mind,
11:06 pm
it would be madness for him to call an election given the numbers that he's got here, knowing that so much of the population is against him at the moment. angry about those parties in downing street angry about the way he dealt with cove it even if he did well with vaccines. and just not believing it, they can trust the prime minister. but boris johnson is boris johnson, and he could do something like call an election and say, let's see what the people decide his party. i'm sure would be absolutely furious about that, but i don't think it's about the party. it's about one man or is johnson will. so i was wanting excellent analysis as always, thank you. when we wanna take a look at the developments in the war in you, great grainy and president bodamer zalinski today visited troops holding off russian forces in the east of the country. now it's only the 2nd time that zalinski has been seen outside of the capital key since the war began. just over

a 100 days ago, he toward several towns close to the front line. in the dawn, beth region where intense battles are being fought. a village near the front line and don bus after russian miss alice strike. an elderly woman was killed the latest victim in a war that has lost it over a 100 days and continues to inflict misery on the people of ukraine khaki. yeah. how am i supposed to feel it or my, the little peacefully nominal at the street was peaceful, with nothing heal value or nothing cure. and yet they bombed us darker, but endured in the embattled city of several jonetta. ukraine claims to be pushing back russian troops. and moscow has confirmed that yet another of his generals was killed during your visit to the front. ukraine's president vladimir
11:08 pm
lansky has also been to the front lines and don boss a risky move to raise the murat of soldiers subjected to a relentless russian. a terri barrage the u. s. d u k and germany have moved to count her russian firepower by pledging to st. ukraine rocket launchers with a range of up to 80 kilometers russians. foreign minister doubled down on the criminal, defined response mobile to look at the booth chim, than i can only add that the longer the range of weapons. yes. apply the further we will move the front lines away from our territory. deline on which neo nazis couldn't threaten the russian federation was intimacies, good in a war marked by russian setbacks and stiff ukraine resistance. it won't be easy to back. such words with action while are very on the connolly. he is in odessa and he
11:09 pm
told me more about the difficulties that ukrainian voices are now up against. i think more than being out, man, they've been outgunned and that's in large part because those western weapons deliveries that ukraine has been asking for with ever greater intensity in recent weeks and months are just not getting there as fast as you can, needs them to be there obviously with has been an announcement recent days that britain would follow america's lead in sending those rocket launchers. but before they actually are trained, the ukrainian military is able to use those and they actually reached on bass. that still going to be a question. a few further weeks, so definitely a very difficult situation there. and we're getting reports of ukrainian commanders having to basically think twice before they use any shilling any basically ammunition. because even if they have the equipment, they have the manpower, they just don't have that depth and ammunition that the russians have, where the russians can use 5 to 10 or even more shells, the ukraine's we think about every single shot. that's a very difficult situation. there, as for the actual situation, several minutes,
11:10 pm
we don't quite know how much of the t u crystal controls reports. not that they only control one industrial area on the edge of town. and this has been, something's been predicted basic for weeks now that ukraine would lose control the city, but for now ukrainian, still holding on to bridge evidence of it of this. and, you know, considering all of that, we had these images of the ukrainian president visiting areas near the front lines in don bass. that is 8 a daring move for a wartime president. it's also a dangerous move isn't while he was, he thought that the booster morale among the ukrainian troops was worth it. and you know, these are times where in very high profile, ukrainian and military volunteers, people who have a big media profile are ending up with severe, wounding one very high profile. recruit to day reports, the heat loss, and i in the fighting. there's definitely a need to rally the troops to show that, you know, he is no more or concert by security. they would be there showing their willingness
11:11 pm
to fight against an opponent that has more in the way weapons and more way of manpower. i think also to import thinking that he's really trying to push that contrast with adam putin, who, as you'll remember, puts his guests at the end of a very, very long table, is scared of covey. let alone enemy weapons. so volume is lensky showing that he is the opposite. he is a man who is not scared of his own. troops is not scared of leading it, leaving his presidential palace to go to the front lines. and i want to ask you about these russian state media reports that had confirmed the death of one of moscow's top generals. what more do we know about their when deeds are among catoosa? according to russian sources is the 4th general. they've lost in ukraine. the u. s and western intelligence says, i say that there are more than 10 pence lee as much as many as 15 russian generals have lost their lives in russia. he knew in ukraine rather in these 3 months of war . and that is a sign saying that every one of russian military failure, that basically the russian military is so hierarchical and so are unable to react
11:12 pm
quickly to events in the ground. they have to send their generals to command in the front lines in place where they're most likely to get a shot at get killed. because basically, there isn't the freedom for the younger officers and the people's lower down in the command chain to really take decisions on the flies. that's really a sign that russia is struggling and there, and a lot of pressure from the command back in moscow to get some kind of results. so that poochie has something to show for all these tens of thousands of russian losses in ukraine. and at least maybe capture several of the nets after mario poll and basically no big winds for the russians in recent weeks. that really is starting to put pressure on those commanders to take risks that they otherwise wouldn't do w's economy with the latest to night, from odessa, as we begin another week, more than a 100 days into this war. net. thank survivors of a deadly shooting at a catholic church in nigeria are describing what the experience dozens of worshippers were killed when a group of gunmen opened fire during
