3:33 pm
membership is concerned is that shot mr johnson seems to be what i had -- he's by far far far away the most popular candidates about to general s number to the party he said she's got two crucial attributes the fastest. well he was not for the most part it's the the the the mac the best known face all believe complicated. twenty sixteen he's not saying that we should leave by october thirty first come off by. about other means renegotiating the pot stop all coming out with us to deal -- i'm thought some position which at least two thirds of those your rockets of his own five loft -- docks together with us options hardy charismatic. additional dots long demonstrated ability to when i was like just. in a way the russian if you can set up this kind of those two out to bridge for a party. that's not been able to get the car brought to deal through the
3:34 pm
hospital and other party there's a result is suffering severe and actual damages the hans is not your project to project. these ought to crucial out shooters. but so far please put the word in the so my cold in a very divisive figure them out and that is breaks it the sole issue john. it's not the sole issue but it's enough it's been the dominating issue because it's the issue which is precipitated -- to reason mase resignation i did just the issue around which the candidates on most carrier right that there are other things being discussed. in particular want to see something of a debate going on between whether or not the next concert of government. should be prioritizing some kind of tax cut. as opposed to brunch not being quite search awful public spending as i was being so for example. about hong kong health minister. i'm sorry your job with the object you want information. about you a softer on brexit than the other but both of them are supporting for programs. that taught our ties public spending on the other on boris johnson on a detail that brough. over to the harness isn't that
3:35 pm
your best nine objects just up by the actual search talking about tax cuts boris johnsons case. tops counselors to all the high it comes on it. i don't really watch case for what will the more generally across the porch i'm sorry yes there are other stone i think there is going to have an argument about whether the conservative party. what should be pushing himself all the toxins spend issue pot and haven't simply? brexit is going to dominate because proxy frankly don't runs pretty much awesome supers politics. i know at least whoever becomes prime minister the end of july. then the highs three months. in which to do live ops what they're wanting to deliver this to party includes negotiating with the european union. i will be on holiday i'm be is in the midst of up redeploying listed all of its top team and a guy coming up with a new president the consul neue press. involved except trucks -- i will this is meant to be done and then we went to get the legislation through by the end of october you can tell that -- perhaps winning the private *-*-
3:36 pm
might be boris johnsons easiest charles. what it does in the three months they're off to just look at the moment looks like a very structured charge ? john it's a sense. the peace the conservative leadership and becoming prime minister is. even more of a poisoned chalice then went to resume to cover from. david cameron in the wake of the brakes a referendum. but it's certainly difficult to see. how it's going to be possible for the united kingdom? to be able to leave the european union the end of october what is meant to negotiates the box stall. but to the opinion has said that the withdrawal treaty is all dolled up for renegotiation. so somebody has got to blink but
3:37 pm
then secondly even less thought. it was you that i don't manage to agree on that so we're going to plug the which again for most of these candidates will play with it first degrees or not. is to go out because it did not get without to deal with and the question is will the house of commons allow it because the house of commons. seems to be deeply reluctant to allow us to cross shop without should do. and that in every event if both these problems are solved and somehow or another the residuall this did you go sure agent. inside for you guys are the house of commons and also knows by october what it actually means it will be at the very very latest test would be by the end of august given the notion of time table. it all looks very very difficult i don't i don't at least five of the candidates of set that's it we're definitely in in october thirty first no ifs no box. how they get that is at the moment very very difficult to see unless front to the european union charges? ideas what to renegotiate the golan boxed up in some way or
3:38 pm
another. john curtis of strathclyde university and cd of such -- at that not since social research thank you so very much your analysis of the current situation that's ten candidates to class -- to the beat to become leader of the yep u. k. conservative party and that by replace trees may as prime minister of cool she's an answer she standing down. and it's just that the process of be a conservative african guitar but cats a clear the moments but to this all going to work itself out with the first vote happening just -- about three days time on june the thirteenth i believe it is the first post at the following one on june the eighteenth to work out to who. steps into her she sent it to number ten downing street will bring every development as it comes thanks again john curtis our guest. next the breaking story from new york at least one person's been killed when a helicopter crashe. into the roof of a building in midtown manhattan state governor
3:39 pm
andrew cuomo says he understands the was an attempt. at emergency landing that the crash occurred shortly before two pm local time that's a time eighteen hundred g. m. t.. in the conditions described as rain and fog dozens of emergency vehicles that you can see swarmed the busy area around seventh avenue between fifty first. and fifty second street a few blocks north of the iconic times square. sums to the fire on the roof of the accident was quickly controlled by the new york fire department let's listen now to the yeah. map of new york city bill de blasio. i want to say the most important thing first there is no indication at this time that this was an act of terror. and there is no ongoing threat. city. based on all the information we have right now one person died in. this helicopter crashed that person is presumed to be the pilot but we are still waiting for absolute confirmation of that fact. there does not appear to have been any passenger in the helicopter but again we're waiting for absolute confirmation that fact. we do not know the cause of this incident i'm sure you're going all want to ask that we do not
3:40 pm
know the cause. but again we have no indication. that there was any terror nexus here. let's begin a correspondent jessica lee missouri who's watching violence forest yes good evening to you. take us through -- the events that and the fact that you know the what i like that it it did it they call. you but they more emergency landing all. those. album yeah. in the street on the west side of south central fault north of times square -- it's a rainy day here in new york city and somewhat foggy as well and so there's some speculation as to whether or not the pilot may have. gotten into trouble and had to make some sort of emergency landing on the top of this building notice acts of building up which it would seem from this things does not have. a helipad landing spot at and say witnesses said that that was a pretty much smoke -- the
3:41 pm
governor allen's build rise yea. the new york may i said that that had been beaten ensuing fire a long talk all of this building -- some people inside the building actually felt. the collision into the top of the building but the structure old this skyscraper was no actually damaged it would seem. however of course this caused some alarm people were evacuate. there was some at twenty five thought apartment units at the scene responding to this -- us president donald trump reacted - to congratulating emergency services -- fully phenomenal job he said that they had done responding to this -- but it seems that situation is now under control but sadly yes at the pilots a delight. in this crash it was according to reports a light at crossed and it seems that this helicopter but was privately owned. i'm because new york is new york on with its history inevitably
3:42 pm
there were fears that this might have been something big up. absolutely -- there were a lot of concerns that when we first got reports of this -- that it might be something more than an accident -- of course at new york city is always on the on the steering that something may happen and so there's always a strong a big response from emergency services whatever. it is some sort of music across specially when it involves a skyscraper -- those memories of nine eleven all still see it into the brains of old new york. but it seems that this was -- at this time and accidents a very sad situation for that collided into his family but new york and said that you know is somewhat of a relief -- that this was not something bigger. just lose your thank you very much indeed. of course just living is more on the situation as it develops. next nearly a hundred people have been killed in sectarian violence in mali the government giving a provisional toll said
3:43 pm
ninety five people have been killed nineteen were missing. your wrists farm animals slaughtered homes torched douglas herbert join this list of the essentially what we had is the a perfect storm of of factors sort of conspiring to make. central mali one of the most dangerous regions in one of the most poorest areas of africa already in this area that we proudly call the saw hell in western africa -- and what we've been seeing is wall it's important to be clear that no one has actually cleans responsibility for these attacks we have had a situation where over the past months past year - you've had more and more frequent attacks targeting one or another ethnic community whether it's the dog gone to tend to be farmers their their agriculture based or whether the pool community also known as the lani -- who are are are mostly herders who go with their their stock -- they were targeted in horrific -- massacre -- in late
3:44 pm
march in which at least a hundred fifty seven were accounted as has having been killed so once again even on the ground you know correspondence there of course man say. it is unclear who exactly is behind the latest violence what is clear is that you have real and present fear and anxiety in these ethnic groups in these communities in central molly -- combined with as he said this sort of islamic extremist -- phenomenon that is a jihadist threat which has been very slowly moving gradually from its northern strongholds of a few years back chased away by the french military. and moving south what you do have in the case of these two communities that we've been looking at in the case of the the dogon safe accused. by some of their rivals of collaborating with the molly military -- the the floppies for their part have been accused of basically collaborating with -- jihadist groups with islamic extremists -- and to do what
3:45 pm
namely to prevent their rivals from being able to do what they do which is b. at farmers. cultivate their land so you do have a sense of being targeted even if no clear responsibility has been assigned all exacerbated by this sense of jihadist throughout the the region. whipping things up. i have to join the supplemental elia. at least nineteen people have been killed in making a fast so. they were killed in an area that c. jihadist attacks recent weeks the district of all been done is in the north of the country became the faxes troops a part of the regional force against. the jihadist threat in this i help. and in may two soldiers in front to special forces lost their lives in the north became the faucet in a raid that freed four hostages held. we'll review more on all the new stories -- had in a few moments time. now it's not it's not a business and for that which michael stands starting with the fallout from the failed marriage betwee. the little feet and please let.

3:52 pm
coming up with creative ways around the office. this is -- global times which is eventually essentially. a month before the government and they are blaming all of this on foreign influence at their sing the numbers are hyped. and opposition groups colluding with the west all of them so that they didn't specifically mention the protests. but they're talking about the overall situation in hong kong so sort of at that this is how it's been dealt with a couple more tweets on this -- if we go to actual twitter and this is the premier all of taiwan. i suppose in some ways in a comparable situation to hong kong in some respects we stand with all freedom loving people of hong kong in their faces we see the longing for freedom. and a reminder the taiwan's hard earns democracy must be. renewed and guarded by every generation and as long as i'm president one country two systems will never be an option. and this is hong kong based journalist over very formerly of france. twenty four not for the first
3:53 pm
time khan congress find the time one's leaders are looking out for the more than their own art that's one at comments that he made about top. taiwanese prime years intervention if you like or and her comments on social media what else are we seeing this is something that -- quite a lot of shares its -- you know coverage of the fact that a chinese writer was jailed for ten years over a chaotic novel right so it shows you that the that the the kind of ice without you to the authorities. and you know this whole extradition little a could see i suppose people in hong kong getting not treatment from the chinese. at judicial system and this is at home calling her miss on twitter at being ironic about this saying china's on a judas. stop worrying the extradition open only be for serious crimes with sentences of more than seven years in jail. which actually includes say writing erotic. novels sure and finish with this market -- this is -- the british based chinese born a dissident writer monty on the hong kong is recessed for the november a friend a company me at all times for fear i'd be secretly kidnapped. and smuggled to china if the
3:54 pm
extradition all passes any pretty because he's region could be legally openly up talk to will be the end of freedom in hong kong. what's next. newspapers johnny force in the campaign to support invesco journalist who's been arrested now this of course much to the embarrassment of the kremlin yeah. that's right now this is it's interesting to see the russian media really taking a kind of a very strong stand against this this is the same headline on three major at dailies commerce on to evade the most the and the rb cake group we are. yvonne goal in all of is it what they're saying that that he's even going off he was in prison according to a friend of his badly beaten up. then released because of the the brouhaha in the media over this and he's now held under house arrest. at it he claims that they were trumped up charges that he was a at the end of drugs lab in his apartment in fact six photos released by the authorities five of them have been proven not to have been taken in his apartment at all. so it does look like the some credibility at two at the dots over the the drug charges he is also an investigative journalist
quote
3:55 pm
now based in lafayette because he was fired. at bali and media in in russia so he's now based in lafayette i'm very critical of of corruption including -- targeting a moscow's deputy mayor and some of his investigation so he's quite a lot of enemies marks the smells like an old school soviet system stitch up doesn't it it smells circular caught and it's interesting to see at three major dailies taking a v very strong stand against us. so we will be watching that story with a great deal of interest -- next a treat. that among you michael french president gave as a gift to up his us counterpart yes donald j. trump last year has some. tight that's right note that the facts behind this before we get to the symbolism at the three had to be taken out of the ground i i have because of lowell's to do with quarantine. and apparently died in quarantine because everybody's imagining the tree just was you know. left to dolly on the white house lawn and everybody's going to get that was a symbol of friendship that would be is actually a symbol of and it was
3:56 pm
taken from the woods near which made a thousand or more at us soldiers died in world war one so that. was the official reason for but a lot of people thought that was also a symbolic gift from my you're not going to do with the nature. at you know ever reference perhaps the paris accords or no. in any case it was it let me give. you an idea. you have about six and it's like look at all the french media here at the very first word in their article it's samba or sound bower. and you have just about friendship tree is dead r. i. p. friendship so everybody of course is just. being very metaphorical about this this is -- george mobile over the guarding the trees now. at u. of others talking but pathetic fallacy when nature sort of imitates life and what not. there is a book -- bali and republican strategist everything trump touches dies we don't know if you touch the tree. i older saying locally i told wasn't gifted you know because who knows what happened and i think that's also reference twenty touch is not. ending up in the best of health. you know it's it's it's all in good fun but i suppose it symbolically it's not great
3:57 pm
ready. for michael james street in the first month her pathetic fallacy ever said. in the middle. road costa thank you very much indeed so thanks mark hello to my studies of of *-*- going by many is yeah. megan james couldn't be too much on the the pathetic fallacy on the other side of us to do thanks to cold with all the episodes including that use about -- tax on french wine from donald trump interesting stuff he advises to stock up now
