shortest serving prime minister in british history. after weeks of chaos at 10 downing street, a moment of clarity, las trust fence frenzied speculation on her future by telling the british people that she is stepping down. i cannot deliver the mandate on which i was elected by the conservative party. i have therefore spoken to his majesty the king to notify him the i am resigning as leader of the conservative party. only 6 weeks ago, trust was confirmed as prime minister by the late queen elizabeth the 2nd. but a disastrous budget from the no former chancellor quasi quartet spelled at the beginning of the end. high tax rates are home secretary swell, a braverman walked after a row over immigration. and then a vote to bon fracking, played out amid chaotic scenes sealed trust his fate. to oh
10:03 pm
ha. despite her own failure to vote, she won the ballots, but many tory and peas rebelled him at widespread anger that such a regime was ever approved by the party. i am livid and you know, i really shouldn't say this, but i hope all those people that put this trust in number 10. i hope it was worth it. if it was worth it for the minister red box, i think it was worth it to sit round the cabinet table because for the damage they have done to our party is extraordinary. tore part, anger hasn't been confined to the conservative scott, there are coals from opposition and voters alike for the general election. the tax got gone, so we call have a revolving door of chaos. we can't have another experiment at the top of the tory party. that is an alternative, but that's a stable labor government and the public are entitled to have their say, that's why it should be a general election. no, any general election just this is
10:04 pm
a cycle of rubbish. and they were face rubbish of all rubbish. none of them fit for the job. she's of these i to day. and certainly the policy decisions that she might let. none of the british waycross realized in this country. we have to nominate to that despite now we have an elected government democracies, etc. as a trust says her successor is to be voted in by the party. by the end of next week . with boris johnson's former chancellor richey snuck, a critic of trust is budget planned us among the front runners to regime auto group and in light of trust. this tumultuous tenure i asked veteran political correspondent, robert hutton, if her resignation should really come as a surprise. well, i mean, i wasn't surprised. she gave up this afternoon. i think you told me 6 weeks ago that she would only last 6 weeks. i would if i think she'll make it longer than
10:05 pm
that, it is. it is this, this bit, it is where it depends which when, when i was surprised, probably what i mean things have been moving very fast. it felt very bad last night . i think i think after last night, what was to you the moment it all sort of fell apart. was it last night? when actually on monday or monday morning, the new chancellor, 7 on friday afternoon, she sacked her old chancellor. and on monday morning, her new chancellor went on television and said, i am tearing it all up. everything's. everything's gone. all of our stuff. we announced that's not happening anymore. and at that point you really did thing. okay, right. well, time for why. why is the prime minister still here? because she came in with one call. very firm such abuse about how the country should be run and that she's not how it is now going to run. so
10:06 pm
why is there a name only? wasn't she? yes, yes. and i think that was true. i think it now already everyone is talking about boris johnson. how likely do you think a come back as i mean, i think he would love to. he would absolutely love to. he hidden loves these narratives that he break till the all of the rules. one of the rules is you don't get a 2nd john one, he would love to break that rule. well, i think that there are so you've got to remember that he left in disgrace months ago, not, not very long ago. and indeed is still under investigation. and could still be could be, be, be ejected from poland for the thing he left,
10:07 pm
the grapes over to him coming back would be a high risk strategy for the conservative party. i think that there aren't enough conservative m. p 's who want him to come back and i don't think he will want to run and fail to see what i mean. so i think although he is enjoying all of the attention and being back on the tally and so on, i would expect over the next 40 hours that you will suddenly see the bar is trying to find some elegant way to say, well, you know, i just i like my time, i mean, honestly, i think if you go, if you go there was any child at all, he would do it. and actually if everybody, if you could get to the final 2, this is a 2 stage process member. call him and we'll, we'll narrow down to 2 and then it goes from talking to him. but if you get the final 2, i think he would probably get, get the among the white a membership of the conservative party. who will love him? understand why, why he was got rid of and, and,
10:08 pm
and would love to have him back in a p 0 today said you'd have to be mad to want the job. is there anyone seriously mad enough around the book full of people who are not enough to oh, but we still worry there shortage. i mean, there are, there are, there's always a moment in this contest where, where somebody will say, well, you know, my friends urging me to send and ill say, well, for a joke, i think. and that person, this time is a man called brandon lewis, who i'm sure you know don't, and i'm actually struggling to think what his job is at the moment. i think he might be just a secretary. i he who sort of he, he think he could do it. realistically. they've the names to watch a ratio student who came 2nd last time, penny mordant, who missed out how to interpret as anyone has had a good,
10:09 pm
a successful run in trust as 6 weeks in office. penny has. those are the 2 by the i would, i would really be watching and it's quite possible. last time the party was given a choice between receive soon and someone else. they chose someone else. so i wouldn't rule out doing that again, but it didn't go all that well, did it, robert hutton, veteran, thank you for your time tonight. let's take a look now and some of the other stories were falling for you today. b, c o, b and government says it will take part in peace talks on the 2 year old conflict in the northern region. next week. negotiations with the people's liberation front and south africa are due to take place after a previous attempt failed earlier this month, triggering further fighting least 60 people including security officers,

10:13 pm
a very harsh ukrainian winter. earlier we spoke to ashley additive. they who is a spokesperson for the international committee of the red crossing ukraine. he says civilian infrastructure in ukraine and anywhere should be off limits for russian forces. we have been saying for several months from the beginning of this conflict that hitting civilian and civilian infrastructures is absolutely unacceptable. villian and civilian infrastructure are protected under international humanitarian law, and therefore, they're not part of the fight and should not be the target of military hostilities we've seen in the past few weeks. a lot of ariel strikes, especially in urban centers in ukraine. i am here in keith and just last week we saw ariel strikes at a time where people were going to work. we're taking their kids to school. and we know that this as disproportionate effect on civilians and among civilians on the
10:14 pm
most vulnerable on the elderly, on children, on the stick and wounded. this is unacceptable and we keep repeating this call to the parties to this international conflict that civilian and civilian infrastructures are not, should not be targets of military facilities. and especially as winter is fast approaching. and we will go soon to sub 0 temperatures, which will make it incredibly challenging facility communities in ukraine. yet, many of russia attacks have been focusing on the energy infrastructure. how are ukrainians coping with power cuts and blackouts? and you know, geez, power codes and blackouts are happening throughout the country in many major cities . this is taking a huge goal on people and to learn communities. this means that people are not able to ship their houses. it's making difficult for people to prepare food and also
10:15 pm
people live in the anguish of not knowing whether they will be able in the coming weeks and months to go through the winter. and we, at the international record have been already for months, very helping communities community to prepare for this winter by trying to repair houses that have been damaged or even destroyed as a result of this conflict. actually, we are in a race against the clock to help them prepare before the temperature is just below 0 and before winter becomes too harsh. can you paint a picture of what you're expecting for the upcoming winter in ukraine? we know that it's going to be incredibly challenging for civilian communities. several houses have been damaged, have been destroyed. also other critical infrastructure is such as health facilities such as bridges and energy infrastructure. they've been to really help. so it makes it very challenging for people to simply live a normal life. and that's why we are, we are costly,
10:16 pm
same to the parties to this conflict that siblings with structures should be spared for motor yesterday. and we also working with sibling communities throughout ukraine to help them prepare for this challenging time. as an example, i was recently a couple of a few days ago in the hockey feria and we delivered 6 trucks with our team of return material through to a village that has been severely had by hostilities recently. material such as bricks and tiles and also isolation, mature for windows, such basic things that communities used to make their houses better prepared for the winter. a tremendously important job here doing their asheel to prey, thus personnel, the international red cross in ukraine. thank you so much and please be safe. thank you. he crenan refugees may have been the target of a suspected arson attack on a hotel in northeastern germany. police are investigating after
10:17 pm
a fire rip through the hotel where several refugees were living. 17 people were inside when the blaze erupt, it but luckily no one was injured. this was the scene in the village of gross pumpkin door on wednesday evening. 14 guests mostly ukrainians, fleeing the war and 3 staff members were inside when the blaze broke out. in the bus, it is very scary to think that we all came to this country to find safety and feel protected. and after we thought we were in a safe environment, items, all of a sudden we had to leave our homes again. one good m of and it is horrible to always have to be scared that you are not safe organization. i'd been local police suspect arson, and say that just days ago, the hotel entrance was defaced with swastikas and other graffiti visiting the scene, the state premier had this to say that if there had asked them if arson is
10:18 pm
confirmed, then we would consider this an inhumane crime culver, in that case, we will do everything in our power because we do not tolerate hatred and violence against people in our country. and certainly not against people who are seeking our protection by. an investigation is already underway into the cause of the fire is being led by a police unit that specializes in politically motivated crimes. energy costs across the european union have risen shortly after russia kind of gas deliveries in response to western sanctions over the war in ukraine. so can the use speak with one voice to address the crisis? european leaders are debating exactly that right now at a summit and brussels european union leaders are already feeling a winter chill there under extreme pressure to increase the stability of europe's energy supply and to decrease prices while demanding russia withdraw from ukraine
10:19 pm
and sending enough support for keith, to win the war, but european council president sha, michelle says the priority at this summit is finding enough positive energy among the 27 to agree on proposals to lower consumer fuel costs. it should be probably difficult, but this is very defaulting today or tomorrow to center varies from single to throughout the timing, to work together. you know, clear the prosecution fund from huntington for our household funds for the businesses across the you. one of the most divisive proposals for cutting consumer costs, putting a ceiling on the price of gas, does not yet have berlin's backing, despite a number of other countries pushing for it. french president emanuel con, who supports the price cat proposal says he'll have a word with his german counterpart. it was all due. today we have brought unity between countries and so i and others will be working with just a short spots, but it's not good either for germany or for you to look at the terminal isolated itself. chancellor olaf shalt says that's hardly the case. we are the biggest
10:20 pm
supporter, you're paying 26 percent of the budget usually. and we are developing a lot of sorted origin mechanisms. but he didn't indicate a change of mind on price caps, which hungarian president, victor, or bon is calling economic suicide for his country. the dutch don't like the gas cap concept, either preferring another proposal for countries to buy fuel together. prime minister margareta says this meetings, most likely outcome is a commitment to make further assessments on some options and generally agree on things like john purchase. but latvian prime minister christianity current says both price caps and joint purchases are necessary. now, the war in ukraine is teaching the dangers also the geopolitical dangers of being dependent upon fossil fuels. so we have to take the lessons and work towards the future. one, this is what we have to do, but it's not clear the leaders oh feel they have to do it. at this summit,
10:21 pm
a w. brussels correspondent jack perez told me more about what options are on the table to keep energy prices and check what they're discussing is this idea of a joint purchasing platform as we had in terry's report. that fellows, because it is going to get a bit of a traction there. also talking about a benchmark price for liquefied natural gas. the price of that is being skewed because of the changes in flows between pipelines. ellen g arrives on boats. they're also talking about some pretty technical issues regarding liquidity in the energy market. but the battle royale that we all expected was about the price cap for importing natural gas. and that battle royale is looking like it's really taking shape. they've been talking about this all afternoon. and we expect them to be talking all night and perhaps even into the early hours of tomorrow morning. we know that 15 countries are in favor of the price cap, but significantly, germany and other countries like the netherlands,
10:22 pm
the countries that are considered to be economically sort of frugal. that they are the ones that have basically sort of putting the brakes on this. and it needs support, it needs the countries to come together and it looks like there has some pretty divisive some pretty big bust ups in council meeting of the leaders here in brussels. will they be able to overcome their differences? what, what can it take? yeah, that's the, that's the big question of austin that these kind of summits and among the use 27 countries, it's all horse trading. you know, you give us one thing on this and will concede on another issue. but the reality is, is this energy issue is so fundamental for all of the governments soaring costs. the consumers are, you know, really, really significant all across the european union. and indeed, the world i'm think is point towards governments to sort this site. now the problem is, is especially for, for germany in this battle. if they are, 9th,
10:23 pm
this 20000000000, the euro package for their own energy support, which a lot of the other countries feel is unfair within the single market and any sort of skewing the in favor of germany. so it is gonna be a lot of pressure on chance to shows out this summit on this issue. we'll have to wait to see how they can get through this. there's been a lot of, i laterals, a lot of discussions on the slide lines, and they'll be a lot of giving and taking they know that they want to, to do something, whether they can get the price cap over the line. they're not sure whether they're leaving happened at this summit though. now that you talk about discussion thing in place, on the sideline, the leaders of germany and france were very much at the heart of this debate, spoke face to face to day. after all, that friction emerged earlier at what do we know about this meeting? this is exactly it. i think this is one of the, the crux is of this matter because the franco german access in the european union, especially since breaks it has been so fundamental in the 2 countries are on
10:24 pm
diametrically opposed size of this macro. once the french president mccomb wants the cap shots doesn't want it never had a meeting on the sidelines. the eliza palace released a statement saying that they encouraged french german ministers to keep on talking with each other. so the next german franco german covenant meeting will be the most ambitious of substantial possible. they talked about energy, they talked about defense. they were meant the to lead is to have a summit next week together. just a big meeting, the 2 of them. but that now has been postponed because of the divisions on this issue. the stuff to get, i have to wait and see whether they can i and any of those out in the big forum of the 27 need is here in brussels today. exciting time in rossville, thank you for breaking it all down for us. jack barrick, the guitar football world cub starts one month from today, despite france being the defending champions. many in france are boycotting the event because of guitars, human rights record. cities,
10:25 pm
such as bordeaux have decided there will be no public dealings this time around public viewings and the goals celebrations that go with them have become something of a woke up fixture. but they won't be happening this year in many frames, cities including bordeaux, which is boycotting the world cup competition reconstruction. did you feel stud and there were a lot of irregularities during the construction of the stadiums, there were do more. the cornerstone co workers even died. audrey donald davis doesn't conform to our western or european values and presidio, the world cup and guitar even look does not respect basic human right. elaborate is picked it really far more toward the did. why? you know, there are no fans owns and no public broadcasting. bordeaux, paris, marcy, and other cities. it kicked off a debate with some people. this is ridiculous, it doesn't change anything. if you don't put up a big screen for written by medical football fans will be able to watch the matches
10:26 pm
on the small screen and bordeaux. some pub owners have decided to show them after wrestling with their conscience. i don't agree with the work of being held where's being held. i think there are a lot of questions needs to be asked about sir. favor the organization, world football in general. but this is a business and people do want to watch 30 on the printer poor. think every person should be able to choose whether to watch or not. and for them to have that choice, someone has to show the games that govern this this. he will walk in this part, they are exploring a compromise. during the games, money will be collected for amnesty and greenpeace. but will the person in charge of the city watch the games at home? no. surely, sure, no, i won't. should your gather? i certainly won't watch the game, so i have to be true to my. so having more men, the french cities have announced that they will stick to their boycott, even if the french team gets to the final in katara. and
