become a criminal, ah franklin, i already knows to talk about vickers and paralyzed me. tire societies, computers that out some are you and governments that go crazy for your data. we explain how these technologies work, how they can make our wilson for. and that's how they can also go terribly. watch it now on youtube. how much longer can british prime minister boys johnson hold on to power? we posed this question before word. there were the lockdown. booze parties, a criminal fine issued by the police, followed by a confidence vote that johnson narrowly won. but each time he survived the
10:31 pm
seemingly superman at number 10, downing until he became his own kryptonite. in the past 24 hours more than 2 dozen members of his government have resigned in a scandal of men behaving badly. and the prime minister who knew about it, but said he did, i'm burned off in berlin. this is the day ah, credit that tightrope between loyalty and integrity has become impossible in recent months. please don't seem to know what they're doing and this right. yeah, i'm just trying to feel that you'd expect a government to continue with its work not to walk away. the reset button could only work so many times enough is enough. isn't this the 1st recorded case of the 2nd ship playing the roster job with
10:32 pm
a prime minister in difficult circumstances when you had a philosophy mandate is the key. i think he kept head manual. he also coming up this year, summer arrived in europe earlier and hotter than usual. so like we take a look at one possible cause. now imagine a heat wave that is $7.00 to $12.00 degrees celsius hotter than the usual ones. and comes at an unusual time of year. that's exactly what happened here in spain, in june. which you, our viewers watching on p b. s in the united states and to all of you around the world. welcome. we begin the day with what looks like the sinking ship of british prime minister, or is johnson. since we went on air yesterday, more than 2 dozen officials in johnson's government have resigned, including the finance and health ministers in parliament to day. one of them offered an explanation,
10:33 pm
saying that he could no longer give the prime minister the benefit of the doubt in questions of honesty and integrity. enough, he said, is enough. i'm just moments earlier, the prime minister delivered a message of defiance despite the growing course of all makers demanding he resign . johnson, making it clear as he has before. i am not stepping down. i am here to do what i was elected to do. now this have served johnson well in the past, a former prime minister, once referred to johnson as a greased piggly, able to slide through the tide of situations, but after so many scandals in the past 3 years, there may not be any greece left. johnson's conservative party appears ready to change its own rules to allow another confidence vote a vote. that would surely be the end of johnson as prime minister. or would we have this report tonight? won't lisa for an embattled forest johnson. it was
10:34 pm
a breathing question. time the 1st opposition lead a can't stomach hold them to quit india and slant ministers still supporting him. we know, come to later, the opposition case, donna, anyone with anything about them would be long gone from his, from friends in the middle of a crisis, doesn't the country to the back sinay zet list cost of notting dogs. lawmakers from johnson's own party, also lined up to say it was time for him to go for better. yes, including the man who until tuesday was his health minister. and at some point, we have to conclude that enough is enough. i have concluded that the progress starts at the top and i believe that is not going to change. and that's means that it is for those of us in a position who have responsibility to make that change. but the prime minister vow to carry on horrible job on, on the pipe. franklin interesting to the job of
10:35 pm
a prime minister in difficult circumstances when you be handed to can also by that is but keep going on. that's a lot of support for the prime minister is also draining away outside of parliament with british newspapers making clear they think his days are numbered according to opinion polls. the public has also turned on him with even a majority of conservative voters. now thinking he should quit done a good job on certain things, but so, you know, he's a, his character i think has shown through his doesn't seem to know what they're doing and to survive sources all together. just price is still there. i really think he's, he's always now the counting the hours that said that with a bloody johnson vowing to bank loan, it'll be up to his policy to decide just how long he has left are for more now we want to go to one of the bring in veteran political correspondent, robert hutton, he's also the parliamentary sketch writer for the british, political and culture magazine. the critic, robert,
10:36 pm
it's good to have you on the program. i have to ask you are a debate. ya, you must be loving. what's happening right now? i'm in london, have you ever seen anything like this? i mean, no, no, you know i, i really don't think i have. i, i mean i've, i've seen the madness all of the madness. the british politics add to deliver. but i don't think, i mean i literally just in the last 10 minutes i, when i wouldn't talk stays, i came down and he's fired. michael guy who is his living, you know, secretary, who is one of the great survivors all pretty politics. one of the, one of these ministers who i, people think, you know, can just get things done and he fired him. because because the reason i was, if you told me resign, so it just shows it from madman. it,
10:37 pm
it's a mess. what do you think this was a question? so what does this tell us then about voice johnson, i mean, he's known to be a political survivor. i mean, why should this situation be any different? i mean, how much support does he really have? and i as it, because he seems to think that it's the voters, the people who gave him this, this big win back in 2019. he seems to think that he still has all of them behind him. yes. and that is that that is his argument. his argument is, i don't get my authority for all members of parliament. i get my old tea from the electorate. 14000000 people voted conservative at the last general election 2019 and he says there is 14000000 people, one version conservative. they were both in forest and what they wanted was florida . and florida is what they should get. and i thought that his argument now the
10:38 pm
bottom line is that that's not how our system works. the number of people who voted directly for boris johnson law selection. i don't have it, but it will be around 30000 the people who voted in his constituency. they're the only people who get to vote on a ballot with bars johnson name on it. so, but, but he, he's argument is, they won't have me. now he then he say, well, maybe they did then, but they really don't now, you know, know all the way everything but, but that's the challenge. i mean, the bottom line is that the m p 's, you are right in the sense that they written as a parliamentary democracy. ultimately they do have the power to throw him out and he is going to make them doing well. and then they are not less of the let us suppose johnson does not resign was she had said he's not going to do
10:39 pm
and he has to be forced out. this could very well come down to a matter of numbers. i want you to listen to a labor in p, questioning him during a parliamentary committee session today, take a listen. so you have a 358, n p. you have now have 32 ministers and p p. s. s. who resigned? it was $28.00 at the beginning of this meeting and that and then additional p p. s will resign tomorrow. if you don't resign. so that makes it 180 to the queue to test a hospice, 358 from is to just to make the most simple for you is a 179. not looking very good. if you actually sell me, you know, the numbers are not in your favor right now, but we, we've had more resignations since that committee hearing. but our johnson's opponents in the conservative party are the sure that they have enough backing to als, tim, if push comes to shove, i mean, if the 1922 committee,
10:40 pm
if they change the rules, if they're, if they allow another competence vote are they confident then that, that johnson will lose that vote. i think they are, and it's because it's not just those ministers. i mean, some of those ministers will probably know about it for him in the conference. but to be honest, that was a secret about it. i know that there are people who stayed as ministers who weren't shows for not but it's not just them. what's also happening is there are m p 's who i you won't hurt but i, i sit in the chamber of poem and all day and i look at them and there are, and he's like he anderson and don't go as people who i, i would expect i would tell you pretty confidently those guys will go down with him . they will be in the last trench with him. they are full blooded forest. believe is they do think their vote is voted virus and those guys are calling for go. and,
10:41 pm
and that was actually the, the, the moment for me i, when i, when you don't see those names, you think, my goodness, who has he thought and it's going to be a really interesting question. he has 2 appointments. you ministers to take the place of the ministers who resigned or, and michael groves case, he's fine. it risky. he thinks he can find 20 or people who are still in peace, who will accept job with candy each? no, absolutely clear. he can. no, absolutely. you can and they are, all departments have no ministers now. is this is, this is non trivial. it's a government business, but tomorrow sort of government legislative business is stopping tomorrow because there are no ministers to go and do the thing in parliament that you have to do to stay or bill through. you have to go into the state the committee and say we're doing this, we're doing this, we're doing this and that has to be a, a warm body. we take that place and they currently don't have any there are there
10:42 pm
are, i mean there's a new education sector. i think she has one minister in her department who hasn't resigned. so it's a really interesting question. i think that philly thing. yeah, go ahead. i don't think he will go. you stay there. he will go. but i didn't think i'd, but he's amazing. they're going to make him he's, he's going to make them make him. and he, the other interesting threats that he made that committee we saw, you know, this question of whether he will try and call a general election. and he was incredibly of a civil mass to the point where either he didn't understand the question, but he's not a stupid man. and he knew what they were asking. yeah. you know, he was saying you come any closer and i will go lower the place. ok, well we're waiting to see if that bomb, if the time bomb is still ticking,
10:43 pm
robert hutton in london, we appreciate your time and your insights. excellent. talking with you. and as you said, this is a fluid fluid story. thank you. thank you. ah, we're now the latest on the war in ukraine. ukraine's defense forces are preparing for a ground assault by russian troops in the don yeske industrial region in eastern ukraine . the local governor there says there is no safe place left. it is urging the remaining 350000 residence to leave. it's a desperate rush to leave my saying good bye. it's hard, if there isn't much left for them here in the city of love, yet. rushing, shelling as demolished home, small businesses and hopes for aging with dignity and security. dorothy, this was my shock here only. i have no words. yeah. lots of money,
10:44 pm
lots of resources and i said, 20 years if we're well in everything it's lost. all of that. i have no income. sure . nothing connected to the city anymore. just thought of worked with with water. you should did your yes, the coil? no. yeah. i'm scared for my wife and my daughter who is 6 months pregnant. you'll natalie. they need to leave here, especially after what happened yesterday. mostly they hit the city center. yes. was it the worst of job? what is that law? russia has already claim victory and nearby lu. hans, now the kremlin is moving the frontline of the war to the front doorstep of dun yest. in the don boss region. 2 civilians died after shelling struck a market and slum yonce earlier this week. the local government as begging civilians all 350000 of them to evacuate. will go up to life. no more joyce livable to morrow yield. i would join the army. this isn't the 1st time war has come to us. love janski's. it was seized by rushing back separatist and
10:45 pm
2014 and recapture 2 and a half months later. there's no telling how long these refugees will have to stay away, or what they'll find when they return. you grants military is continuing the fight . as rushes forces advance laguna or corresponding economy, he is in ki, following events for is nick. we know that russian forces have control of half of that critical don't bass region that they say that they want to take. what's the latest now on the offensive to take? the remaining half was real fair hearing here that russia is on something of a role after weeks spent taking 70000. yes. can huge losses they took so in this case, citizenship, it's just a matter of days of the sense that they could really be pushing home that advantage that the new strategy of focusing their efforts on a pretty small section,
10:46 pm
the front lines moving away from trying to do too much what they did in the early months. this war that failed so spectacular. that's now really bringing fruits 30 russia is out gunning and out. manning, basically ukraine in this conflict, and that for now ukraine doesn't have the resources isn't getting the western support that it's been asking for. and that ukraine's western partners simply don't really understand the scale and the intensity of this war. and that all these deliveries are just going to be too little, too late. the only kind of little shimmer of hope, our reports and the last few days from moscow that some of these units might now be taken back into the russian kind of hinterland to take a break to re group. and now the kind of tiredness and exhaustion after months, pretty intense fighting is also being felt by the russian troops that might give care of a bit of a chance to bring those west weapons the front lines and can even things out. but nick, we know that residents have been told to leave the city of slower yonce. good. it comes just a day after, at least 2 people were killed in a rush, an attack on
10:47 pm
a market there or a residence or the heating the warning to leave at are the able to leave. well as far as we understand that the figures all a bit desperate, but the majority of the pre war, population of ukraine controlled don bass vance and have already left in the previous weeks a month. most people have stayed not too far away, gone a 10200 kilometers from the front lines. but as you mentioned there about 300000 people still believe to be there. and on the whole we've seen time and time again, people leaving it too late. people saying i have no way to go and have resources. no one wants to host me. and basically people wait until they can hear the shelling in their own homes to leave by which time, often too dangerous. and they end up. either you're losing their own lives or endangered people trying to help them. so this time the government is trying to get in there earlier be more drastic in its warnings or to put more pressure on people to get out to avoid them losing their lives. and also endangered people who then will be at worst a worst case sent in to help them. so that's the hope now. and definitely an
10:48 pm
expectation here in case that more cities are gonna fall to russians before you cranes able to turn the tables and to start going back into counterfeit dec or very only connelly believes tonight from keep in ukraine. nick is always thinking europe is sweltering under one of its earliest and hardest heat waves on record. so i to say climate change is driving unseasonably high temperatures. tonight we take a look at how some countries are trying to adapt coming to terms with global warming that is here to stay blazing fires and scorching droughts. in the face of rising temperatures, european nations are looking for ways to adapt to this new normal in spain, a combination of extreme heat and dry conditions sparked the outbreak of forest fires across the country. the june heat wave drove temperatures above 40 degrees
10:49 pm
celsius in multiple regions as high as 14 degrees above the monthly average nestled in the arid heart of the country, the capital madrid sweltering in the unseasonably. brutal heat. trees like this one here are being brought in as a savior because madrid is building a green belt around the city. this means basically that of trees are being planted in the gaps that are between already existing parks and forests. and this should help to bring down the temperatures of it up to 4 degrees actually, and the planting half of a 1000000 trees. this should have an effect as an air condition and basically just a very gigantic one. but these searing summers are not limited to the sunny south of europe, with high temperatures expected to arrive earlier. and last longer. countries in the north are also being forced to adapt in brandenburg germany. a lack of rain is
10:50 pm
posing a serious challenge for farmers. years of drought have baked the already dry soil, making it even harder to store the water necessary for growing crops. this farm and brandenburg is counting on regenerative agriculture to help it withstand drought and soil erosion. regenerative agriculture is all about keeping the soil healthy, and it does so with many different techniques at this farm. for example, they've implemented cover crops. these are crops that are planted directly onto the soil and help keep it moist instead of just being harvested. now, regenerative agriculture is not going to solve the problem of climate change, but it can help make farms like this one and brandenburg more resilient to heat and drought in the years to come. for countries across europe, these approaches are helping to mitigate the effects of an ever hot a world. but mitigation alone will not be enough to solve the global challenges
10:51 pm
posed by climate change. for more, i want to turn out to carly new home and hopeless. she is a physical oceanographer at woods hole oceanographic institute. she joined us this evening from lisbon in portugal, carolina. it's good to have you with us. before we get started, i would like to share with our viewers a map that shows the position of high pressure systems in the atlantic. now it's named after and it's located around the azores is, are islands belonging to portugal. we see that right fair off of the, in the atlantic way off the coast of africa, your team, which is just published research in the journal nature g of science is concluded that unprecedented changes to that high pressure system are impacting the climate of western europe. so talk to me about what role does the as your high pressure system play in our weather? yes. so there is as high as
10:52 pm
a sub tropical high pressure system and an important climate feature in the north atlantic. this size and position of the us high can see other parts of rain bearing weather systems from the north atlantic on to europe during winter time. and for example, the iberian peninsula receives large portions of its n winter rainfall. and during that time and when days as high is unusually large during winter, it essentially blocks the passage of rain bearing weather systems and dry conditions reside in the iberian peninsula. on the other hand, for the north, a stock stronger storm track i. e, that preferred path of rain bearing low pressure systems take over the north atlantic that is strengthened further north. and that means that at the northern british island, scandinavia can expect better conditions during winter time. and what changes have
10:53 pm
you recorded the mean? what are you seeing, or are you seeing these, the, the impact that you just described? yes, indeed. so we've looked at the size of the a's os high over time. how that has been changing in instrumental data. so station data that was taken across metro, logical stations all over europe over the last 150 years or so. and we found that over the past century, the number of extremely large a's os high events during winter time has increased significantly since 980. it's actually to truth, right? 3 times more likely to have such an extremely large os high during winter then in the previous 100 years. we also wanted to put this into a longer context, 100 years. it's not that long in a climatic context. and so we've gone to climate models, simulations, and that may extend these records back about 1200
10:54 pm
years. and we found that the number of extremely large ethos high that we've seen during the last 100 years is actually really unusual in the context of the last 1200 years. at no time during the last 20 years. we see that many extremely large a's os high and so that's a pretty significant change to previous conditions. and currently to are you convinced that these changes that you'd seen are the, the result or the anthropogenic or the, the result of human activity? so the climate model simulations allow us to actually tease apart different factors and how they've contributed to changes in the is always high. so we have a series of simulations some that just isolate the effect of natural variability. for example, where can interruptions or the effect of solar variability,
10:55 pm
or the effect of greenhouse gases. and we've seen it when we compare the number of extremely high a sauce extremely large is, are high events during winter time. that only those simulations that contain anthropogenic greenhouse gases show this a rapid rise that we've observed in the last 100 years. so the common model nations indicate that natural variability cannot explain this increase in the number of winters with extremely large a's os high. but greenhouse gases can okay, physical oceanographer, catalina room, and hopefully we appreciate your time. your insights tonight is a sobering assessment, but it's good. so i just want to explaining what's going on. thank you. thanks for having me. ah, the son, feminist festival in the spanish city of pomp lona,
