the library job is good to have you with us on this thursday. voters are going to the polls in the caves general election, and they are expected to vote for change. the opposition labor party is the overwhelming favorite to win the selection and to n 14 years of conservative route. a prime minister really soon deactivating, surprise, call for early elections, a decision that is projected to backfire recent polls issue a voters are deeply dissatisfied with his government. and here stormers center, left labor party. it is on course we're a landslide victory. the cost of living and the state of the health care system are among the key issues for britain's still seeing that gives, hoping that he can sweet undecided voters voting

on a brave face prime minister, racist so not lead, didn't he send to right? the conservative party in the political fight that he himself cold war and is likely to lose many people. they want to say the result of this election is a full grown confusion. the all i believe in my bones that it is not. and i think you do to, we do not surrender to labor. we will fight for every vote. we will fight for all values, and we will fight for our vision of person. but this time, it seems that this vision is all to stick with what the british people want of to 14 years. in paula, the conservative so know, facing a mess of defeat is thomas sent to leslie. the party is now 20 points ahead in the polls and isn't close for victory, changed labor policies. they box it up. moving forward to a guy with a lady picked up, but that is what we're fighting for. let's continue that fight if you will change.

yeah, hop to vote for it. and this change is what the british population seems to want. service indicate vote has a most consent fall the cost of living as trained health care system and migration, which has increased in recent years. and this last issue placed into the hands of nigel thrush. and he's on to me, gratian reform you, key party. the party has seen this search in support. and while it's not likely to get the significant number of seats in parliament, it will still change regions. political that escape but whoever gets to full the next bridge, the government will have to prove to the british public that this time they made the right choice. but dodie is now from london, is my colleague, our correspondent, charlene shelton pill shortly. good to see you. so let, let's talk about the results that 1 may or may not be expecting busy

as well. we are expecting to have a much clearer picture of those results in just a few hours time polls here close at 10 pm. and that is when the action really is going to start immediately, we will get an exit poll, giving a very clear picture of who is going to leave the country. now, historically, these exit polls, the sample surveys have been passing very to is have accurately predicted the largest policies that would get, give us a good sense of how the night is going to proceed throughout the evening. you will then start to get the results from the 650 different constituencies with some of the ones in the 80 hours of the morning expected to be bell. whether it's the web, this election is going to go. you will then expect a clear results uh, in the early hours of the morning. now the way the polling of works here is that

whoever wins the most value in every constituency, when is that seats, and then should a policy have a majority, tomorrow they will be able to go to the king. the king lost them to form a government. you will then to have that landmarks name and whether new prime minister will give a speech outlining his vision for the country. now, i'm limited here in the u. k. as to what i can say about some of those issues at stake due to u. k. electro little box 12 to 14 is as conservative that governments 6 weeks of campaigning votes is here. all having the say at polling stations like the one behind me and some 40000 others a they all having nessa on who will leave the country. and charlotte, what can you tell us about labor leader cures storm or she, if we believe the policy could very, very well be the next bridge, probably minister steve benita. all of the opposition center. that's labor policy

since 2020. who took it from his previous sessa? a jerry me cool. been off the he lost the general election in 2019 a lot of been has been made of the case down in the background. he is a human rights lawyer. famously, we're here alone, but his father was a tool maker, but he's not a fresh face to politics. here we've been seeing him engaging with prime minister really so you're not as need of the position. and the country will, of course, have to say on, on which man they would like to lead this country. we will, of course, bringing you bring you all those results this evening. from when that exit poll comes in. all right, the, the use of charlotte shells and deal with the latest from london on this election day in the u. k. charlie, thank you. we're the leaders of a rush and showing the have held the stability of their partnership at a region security summit that's taking place in astonish cause like stone,

vladimir putin. and she's in team there. they are, were joined by representatives from several other countries including india, pakistan, and the wrong rush and trying to launch this shanghai cooperation organization, as it's called, back in 2001 to serve as a counter wage to western late organizations. booting called the some of the key pillar of a multi polar world to dowdy participants. at the summit of signed a declaration, dw corresponded emily sherwood in riga. she told me more as well. most of the declaration was very general. for example, the participants said that they wanted to develop a united and fair world. there is one point that i think is worth highlighting. and that's the fact that the participants called for a broad reform of the united nations, including to make it more representative. so essentially they were calling for it to be brought in for members, i guess, of the global south to also be able to join the united nations. and that's an

interesting point because i think it shows what's the central message of, of the summit today, which is what you mentioned, the multi polar world order put in this opening statements to the summit mentioned that several times he said that he hoped that the ceo of this organization would be one of the pillars of that multi polar world or other order, which he actually called a reality today. and of course, that is in opposition to what he calls the unipolar world order, which is the western dominated us dominated world order. so that's really the main message from china and russia today. questioning the dominance of the west is either these, emily, sure, when they're reporting, let's take a look on some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. japan is in the grid of a record of breaking sheep wave. the central city of excuse you woke up had a daytime. high of them is 40 degrees celsius on thursday. that's the highest in 80 years. and in tokyo,

officials say that dozens of people have been treated in the hospital for he struck shanghai as also really from a heat wave authorities of issued and alert as temperatures their exceed 38 degrees celsius, the conditions are likely to persist throughout the weekend. china is where their office has worn. the country is facing hotter and longer heat waves due to climate change us, which is more on ukraine, rages on. it's now when it's 3rd year and the cost of both sides had been immense. but one of the possible spoils of victory could also be what's underneath your feet . ukraine has huge deposits of listing and important mineral for batteries powering electric cars or smartphone. finding near the ukrainian village of quota hobo earlier this year. above the ground towns that have seen dozens of tank battles since the war began. what you don't see is the hundreds of millions of dollars of

lift the, the geologist say it's likely underground. ukraine has significant deposits of natural resources that could make rushes war financially pay off. in addition to lithium and there are significant oil, gas, metal, oars, rivers, and precious metals buried beneath the soil, potentially worth more than 20 trillion dollars. lithium is a key material for the future of electric cars and many smart technologies. ukraine's deposits are located in the queue of 400 and don't yet regions. care of that is still under ukrainian control, while much of done yet is occupied by russia. before the war, the european union, the headed cy on ukraine's deposits, especially of lithium it currently in for it's almost all of the mineral from china . in 2021. the u and ukraine agreed to a strategic partnership for raw materials. there is a norm, us potential because security tacoma federal essential for the kind of an icing of all right, going on. these can be found in abundance in ukraine. according to the us to warn

ukraine has cost russia well over a trillion dollars and economic losses, as well as hundreds of billions and expenses on the war itself. but the trillions hiding under ukraine's fields and factories put far away that in a war this had such a mass of human cost. so the question is, how big of a role did ukraine's natural resources play in hooton's plans to invade? we put that question to energy expert andre, who by talking you so of course, uh, treating a raw material as in general and in your train are not the main reason why russia is taking this. i'm justified word and you train, but it could be, as you mentioned, a significant benefits in a positive military scenario, short term. and so i potential scenario in which rush, i will control some of these regions that are reached and then the repeating overall materials with basically reinforce rush as role in the global energy

commodities markets. so apart from being still relevant on the file suit, you ah, resources side, it will also increase. it's great to go. uh, i mean they're also on the phone. you are, which is critical, as you mentioned, to the edge of the transition process globally. and that was energy analysts, andre, cuz i thought you were speaking with me earlier. hurricane barrel is heading for mexico. after battering jamaica, the category for storm has called cause widespread destruction across the caribbean is projected to slow down over the coming days. but it will remain at or near hurricane street. the storm is killed at least 10 people. so for batteries and sluggish jamaica is the latest car would be a nation to suffer the damaging effects of barrel. the winds in excess of 200 kilometers per hour. and heavy rain from cuba to venezuela,

grenada and st. vincent done the granite deans. the deadly storm is leaving. it's mark the cayman islands and mexico or no bracing for barrel. the hurricane is the earliest to reach category 5, a result of climate change according to some experts. it's path is not certain, but it could eventually end up hitting the us state of texas. here in mexico's, you could time peninsula preparations were being made. some areas have been evacuated by the navy. the front come, we were in a very vulnerable strip of land where we have to see on one side and the lagoon on the other. and the width of the community is about half a kilometer or a little less. i'm not sure exactly. so a hurricane, even a category to that causes the c to rise, which has happened before with the c merges within the good. what is very dangerous

for people to stay here then? in nearby tourist resorts preparations are being made for barrels arrival. with many, also stalking up on provisions on the beach. though visitors enjoyed the last few hours of calm weather before the storm will be sent here because their flight. so do you will. and so when they and the thing will just take advice from the will tell and the that it, or the, or the we're not to scare the barrels. seeing here as it hit, jamaica is expected to make landfall and mexico late on thursday or early on friday . and finally, an angry bull has called k us in the caribbean, capital lima, the bull escape the vehicle, and transporting it, watch this. now any dashed into busy traffic in the suburb of santa anita this side, the list was particularly unlucky. the board, the police,

the runaround we understand for a while, but officers eventually managed to corner it. it's all it's owner has volunteer to pay for any damage. you know, bull, this is dw new, so you'll get a copy of the january 2021. the attack on the united states capital, thousands of people took pods and among them some of these manipulative voices. our former high ranking military leaders wanted us veterans turned their backs on democracy. and what does this mean for the upcoming election? the enemy within starts to lie 12 on d, w me .
