ah, on september 6, queen elizabeth gave liz trust the mandate to form the next british government last official duty before her death. little did she and in fact, anyone know that just 45 days later, trust would be handing that mandate back a 10 downing street to day trust me, the same short walk as her 3 conservative predecessors to become the most short lived prime minister and u. k. history, she leaves the tory party in disarray and a country facing the absolute last thing it needs right now. another crisis, i'm to call for really him berlin and this is the day ah, i cannot deliver the mandate on which i was elected by the conservative party. made

so many mistakes. and so many uses, one of us, i am residing as leader of the conservative party, but we call have a revolving door. it makes you wonder whether we should vote conservative again. the will be a leadership election to be completed within the next week. the public or title to have this leg about why the should be a general election. and also on the show in german, chancellor or left shall slams rushes scorched earth tactic than ukraine and has a warning for vladimir putin as thick we'll deal is banking on our weakness. but he is mistaken that we are not. we have a thank you so much for joining us. list, trust, premier ship was always going to be off to a rocky start. but the past 6 weeks were more tumultuous than anyone. one of their

to predict economic miscalculations that sent markets reeling historically bad public approval. and a rate of ministerial turn over the country had never seen before. the woman who promised to deliver deliver deliver to day admitted that she simply can't and resigned. here's how she told the british people, i came into office at the time of great economic and international instability. families and businesses were worried about how to pay that bills. putin's illegal war and ukraine threatens the security of all whole continent. and all countries have been held back for too long by low economic growth. i was elected by the conservative party with a mandate to change this. i recognize though, given the situation, i cannot deliver the mandates 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. all after trust resignation, the tories have promised to choose a new leader by the end of next week. whoever succeeds her will become the you case, 3rd prime minister. this year, a national election isn't due until 2024, but opposition leader care stormer once one to be held right away. he says, it's clear the conservative party no longer has a mandate to govern. this is not just a soap opera at the top of the tory party is doing huge damage to our economy. a reputation of our country, a public, a paid retire prices with higher mortgages. so we can't have a revolving door of tails on the public are entitled to have their say about why, but should be a general election. and i now have alex for his whiting in the studio with me. she

is our u. k. expert. alex, did you see this coming up? i think it was pretty clear that liz trump was going to have to quit at some point, but absolutely not. did i think it would happen so quickly? and i think most people didn't think it would happen so quickly. and yet here we are. and as you say, 45 days into her premier ship and she has already quit. so absolutely extraordinary that it has been so short left. and so shambolic 45 days, sounds like a very short period of time, but a lot happened. can you just retrieve quickly what made her ultimately untenable? well, let's just 1st will remember that she was never particularly popular with conservative m. p. 's. she was not their 1st choice, so she didn't have that big unifying support within her own party. so we mustn't forget that. but of course what it really came down to was the fact that she and her then finance minister the so called chancellor,

i introduced this mini budget, which basically had on funded tax costs worth millions of pounds. and that absolutely spook the markets. it sent the british pound sterling into free fall. it meant that government and government couldn't borrow is cheaply at that had a knock on effect. a mortgage is that those rates of me went up, people couldn't get mortgages. their mortgage costs rose pension funds were even threatened. it was an ups loose disaster. and then yesterday, and that there was an issue with the her home secretary. so that's the person who sort of looks after the u. k. itself, she quit, and then they work shambolic themes in the house of commons over a particular vote. and it looked absolutely clear that she had lost control. that downing street had lost control. and then m p started saying we can no longer offer

less trust or support and that was pretty much the end of it. and now that she's on her way out of the book makers are of course all over it. who will be the next prime minister. we're hearing that boys johnson may be considering a run. yes, a boris johnson be prime minister that she took over from you had to leave downing street on because of various scandals including having a party is during lockdown in, in downing street. and he himself, because of those parties, by the way, still facing on an investigation, so he mustn't forget that. and yet that's right. his name is coming up and we're being told that he is considering. and there's certainly a lot of support from him within conservative m. p. 's. and we can look now at james dodge a tweet from him. i wish we can bring up look, i hope you enjoy your holiday boss. he's just by the way, at the moment in the caribbean time to come back few issues at the office that need

addressing hash tag bring back boris. so he'd certainly does have support and people have been tweeting their support, but he's also not so popular with other m. p. 's and those and p c wanted him out. and interestingly, it's now been agreed that for this next election of the next conservative leader, they have got a very high threshold of what m p 's can go forward into that they have to have the backing of a 100 conservative m. p 's there about 360 conservative mpg are the house of commons. so each candidate has to have a bucket of at least $100.00. that's narrowing it down to 3 candidates. and we'll, boris johnson even make it to one. it getting support from 100 m p. 's. that's not clear. i mean it, i'm not a 100 percent. sure that he would even be able to get that $100.00. so we don't know yet. but just before we move on from that, that the front runner at the moment is wishes to not. he was the man who went up

against liz trust for the last leadership election. and it does look at the moment . everything changes in british politics. but at the moment that he seems to be the most popular candidate at the moment, he hasn't yet thrown his hat into the ring, but we're expecting him to and there will be others as well. now, the british public must be extremely fed up to sally. i mean, we're them in the or it, with all of this chaos, a conservative party still have a mandate. well, look, you know, if you speak to it, it depends you on if you who you are. but if you speak to a conservative m p, they will say of course we do, we still have a majority in the house of commons. you, you know, this is not a presidential system. i'm so it doesn't matter who the leader is and they will fight for that. why would they fight not to have an election because they are doing so incredibly badly in the polls on polling around about 30 points behind the main opposition labor party. but others say, of course there has to be

a new mandate. now, the british people have been hit badly by what's happened with less trust. and they have watched this whole conservative party on the, you know, what's been going on with his party for months and months for years now actually. and it's time to go back for that to be an election. but i do not see that happening at the moment. because the conservatives do not want that to happen. that was r u k, expert alex forest whiting. thank you so much for coming in. ah, and germany, chancellor, olaf shots has given a key policy statement to parliament. his address touched on the many challenges facing germany and europe in light of russia's war in ukraine. potent, he said, had speculated on the west weakness, but he had been proven wrong shoals, reiterated germany's unwavering commitment to keep and defend it. what many, including ukraine's president, criticized as a sluggish 1st response. still some say the german government could be doing more.

when all our sholtes took center stage and the bonus tag, he spoke in front of the german parliament. but his message was directed towards a wider audience. but worcester anglophile of deliberate attacks against civilians, a war crimes, almost glass, was that even this scorched earth tactic won't help russia when the war that missed her from intrigues given. it will only strengthen the resolve and perseverance of ukraine and his partners. ukraine will successfully defend himself and will support it as long as necessary upon a message. a majority of parliamentarians in the bonus tag agree with, in fact, many here belief germany should do even more. of course, the chancellor and the government has so the full support from the opposition parties in order to strengthen the european ability to act both in supporting the

ukraine and in tackling the energy crisis. but this speech of the chancellor or scratch, i'm inspired and, and emotional. we could do more and we should deliver concrete answers. i'm quite confident that are, that ukraine is receiving a lot of, of our weapons or that of our, of much use. but of course, main battle tanks, for example, have not been delivered yet, and i would be strongly supportive of this idea. the bar shows also addressed the global consequences of the russian war against ukraine. as a reliable partner in europe and elsewhere have shown a lot of solidarity. he said and have helped germany overcome its reliance on russian guess. anti want other nations around the world need help averting a hanger crisis. this is jennifer target when, when it's a question of humanity, but also of our credibility. and if we want the countries of africa, asia, and latin america and the caribbean, to continue to support us in defending international law against attacks like russia's, then it's only just that we also take their concerns about dealing with the

consequences of the russian war. he seriously, in spite of all these challenges, shots, i that he was more certain than ever that put in swore against ukraine and the entire free world will fail all after his speech in berlin. today, all i shall headed off to brussels for an e. u summit. on the energy crisis, e leaders are desperate to bring down the sore and cost of oil and gas. as russia chokes, supplies to europe, in a mix of proposals is a cap on the price of gas. but the block is divided on how to go about and germany is worried and could de stabilize the energy market while france is determined to push ahead and time is running out to find a solution as winter starts to bite across europe. here's what a new leaders were saying at the started talks. no one is looking for having no guess. so it is the right discussion to find out how we can get the prices down and

have enough supply for all of us and you, you don't, you become a year because i will work with chancellor sholtes among others. i think it's not good for germany or for europe, that'd isolates itself. and so it's important on one of the proposal on which there is a fairly broad consensus. we can find unanimity in, in unity, if the price cap on imported gas could be managed. and there are many questions, how it could be managed, that would have a downward pressure on prices. and that's what we all need as depots, have been thinking because our shop there are major concerns from large states like germany, about too much intervention. and there are countries that want to price cap price. a price kept can be a good thing. but we have to be careful, it doesn't make supplies scarce as this occupancy for can up the purposes of the table to produce. ah, i think a balance in order to which the dreamer to do it should be properly difficult, but it is very important to do it all to morrow, to center a very strong signal to charge autonomy to work together. there is huge political pressure to act on energy prices with strikes and protests over the cost of living

spreading across europe. is there enough consensus among you members to deal with a crisis? here's d, w, brussels corresponding jack park. yeah, that's the, that's the big question of the also 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 for consumers. oh, you know, really, really significant all across the european union, and indeed the world i'm fingers point towards governments to sort this site. now the problem is, is especially for, for germany in this battle, is they announce 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 market in favor of germany. so it is going to be there's

a lot of pressure on chancellor 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 bilaterals, a lot of discussions on the sidelines, 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 gap over the line. they're not sure whether they're leaving happened at this summit though. how many times when you use an electronic device today, switch the light on and off to laundry, or turn on the tv. you might be watching us on right now. all of these things the people in ukraine were to day told to stop unless absolutely necessary the measures in response to rush as widening attacks against the energy facilities. the national grid operator says the curb is limited to thursday, but more restrictions and blackouts may be needed to fix the extensive damage. russia has done preparing dinner in a makeshift outdoor kitchen. 9 year old autumn and his grandma arena hurrying to get dinner ready before the setting sun plunges the home into cold and darkness.

soon, horgan is really cold. he and like guess she's, i'm sleeping in my clothes in my apartment now. li, issue brushing strikes of cut off utilities in cities and towns across ukraine, and many residents here in the hockey region. we have been living without gas, water, or electricity for weeks down to push. the kids move is enough. when you open, our windows were damaged to it. now we are only eating here, but sleeping in the next apartment because their windows are not damaged. so it's warmer there. any way i don't care for many people bundling up at night and cooking outdoors is a matter of survival. growth of the situations like this is no electricity, no water, no gas recalls. you can see we're building fires and tom lives with his

mother. she's disabled. it is totally dependent on her son's help to do. it's a brother, so it's really cold. now, if it weren't for myself, only i would freeze go through zillow. the homes of residents living in villages like these in the hot heat region have been thrust into a pre industrial era with no modern comforts authorities. a trying to reassure people that electricity will be restored soon and that repairs to water and gas infrastructure will come next. that with the war and with absolutely no certainty, people like autumn and his grandmother can only prepare for what will likely be a very harsh ukrainian winter. oh. in the united states, the mid term elections are fast approaching with democrats and republicans fighting

for control of congress. on november 8th, both parties were hoping to win over the vote of his van again, latino americans, the countries, the largest ethnic minority, could well swing the elections. this year, almost 35000000 latinos are eligible to cast their valid, making them the fastest growing voting block in the u. s. and let's dig deeper and bring in our washington corresponding catalina and she, mo, katerina, how big a role will be hispanic vote play in the mid terms? a very important one. he call roughly 35000000 latinos are eliot eligible to vote. am in the midterm elections and they make 14 percent of the eligible voters in this country. it's the 2nd largest estimate em, you mentioned to avoiding blog in the u. s. especially in states like texas, florida, california, arizona. now were there a population is significantly higher and what is even more interesting is that this is the fastest growing ethnic group in the u. s. m. electorate. since or the last

midterm elections. young latino, are we present, for example, 62 percent of the total growth of eligible voters as since the last midterm elections. and this is precisely the group of latinos i talked to in arizona. let's take a look. this is phoenix, capital of arizona. politically at he says, if state in this mid term elections, it went to baden by just 0.3 percent in 20. 20 a result, many say was down to latino voters and minority group who could decide the upcoming mid terms as well. that is why everyone is looking at them. now. the latino community is the fastest growing voters group in this state. 32 percent of the eligible voters in arizona. our latinos, however, only 19 percent in this group are registered to vote. but latinos are becoming more likely than ever to register and vote. you're from africa

and i just became a us citizen. they are. i will no vote for 1st tell you what the report for the lack of my i, the latino community has to go out and vote of. and if you have kids prepare them to vote only. it's very important because it's thanks to our hard work that this country functions is there by his policy on actimmune along with them. if we don't vote, we're going to be completely ignored in this country. and if the latino community votes consider us under needs of permanent, with professor fransisco bay that are sad, arizona state university says 2 thirds of latinos in his teeth are leaning democrat . the leadership that was developed in the state of arizona was developed in response to a lot of anti mexican american anto chicano, a racist kinds of policies. and the pushback that we see happening today is really an inheritance of that effort. to say we will not be oppressed, he tells us the latino movement is now being driven by women and young people. in

the suburbs of phoenix, it's those women and latino youth. we find volunteering to get our the latino vote . they knock between 80 to 100 doors every day. finally, maria agrees to day to register for voting. after living in this country for more than 30 years. this will be her 1st fault. the economy is her main concern. look later from everything is so expensive. now the mother and the wages are low. 5. so my view, booker michael, at his beth is glad that one more person will be voting. as a kid, she saw how the latino community was discriminated against seeing how my community wasn't being treated, the same as other communities really impacted me. i'm not going to do with us anymore. i'm going to vote for official that truly put me in my community 1st and that's kind of were. that's where i'm at now. it's this impact. it's the engine

that keeps the young latinos in arizona going no matter how long the road and catalina team are you still with us cavalier. you said it in your report. only 19 percent of latinos in arizona are registered to vote. what are the reasons for that? well, because you know, it always depends on the seed in this country and arizona. there are a lot of reasons for this. and they are more than $200.00 bills that are making it harder and more complicated for voters to register, especially for minorities and also for the older generation. sometimes it's the language or the fact that it's not easy to register online. and this is why they are so many grassroot organizations, not only the one i reported on, but many other who go to their homes and to help to explain them how to register and how the voting procedure is it. but even when registered it has historically been difficult for minorities in the u. s. to make use of their right to vote.

hasn't it? what are the difficulties they are facing heading into these midterms historically? but also, especially now nicole because of the stronger political polarization in the u. s. so, so a political officials have been putting out bills at that are making it very hard for minorities and to pass their vote, for example. and they're changing, opening hours of the place where they can vote at a time where a lot of people are still working, especially the ones who have a 2 or 3 jobs or they are. they are replacing the voting centers and creating a huge distance between a certain neighborhoods where there are a lot of minorities and voting centers. and these are just these things are just making it more difficult for minorities to cast their vote. so there are a lot of reasons and a lot of obstacles that they are being created in certain states. for example,

in arizona where the minorities just have a harder way to go and cast their vote. or they might even be afraid of passing their boat vote because they, there might be border officials at the door of the voting centers. the latino vote was long considered a democratic vote, but past elections have shown that the latino vote is as diverse as the community itself. really are politicians starting to ditch the concept of a homogenous latino vote. that is precisely right me called the latino vote is not just one block. you have a very conservative latinos who might even vote for donald trump and for the cons of right. if part of the republican party you have liberals, it's not so homogeneous. a vote, as you just mentioned, and yes, the democratic party and the republican party are starting to see this. they have to fight for the atena vote and they're trying to and trying out different

strategies to, to gain the latino vote and to it's going to be depending on the topics and the concerns are the latino voters have and we have seen in late polls and that this concerns are changing. the main concern for the latino block, if you want to call about way, what would be the economic one like for any us citizen. so it's not anymore immigration, it's not only more racism. and there are certain topics that are just as important for the latino voters as for any you as a citizens and no matter who you're going to vote for, just make sure you do vote curling. thank you so much. thanks. thank huh. and that's for time for today, but as always, the conversation continues online. you'll find us on twitter at dw, that myself at nicole underscore. 40 for now though for me and the entire team on the day. thanks for spending part of your day with
