the conservative party sweeps through the biggest majority in the u.k. parliament for over 3 need but it was unlike the biggest for labor in the polls our teams are across it will bring the latest from here bosco and. so become celebrates victory then big changes take place in northern ireland and scotland too with demands are growing in edinburgh tonight for a 2nd independence referendum. on monday says that's it is for the scottish parliament nor awaits mr government to decide whether wayne should be a new refrain going into. cross fit to be $71.00 soldiers being killed in a militant attack on an army base in the chair posing as a crisis right now than the french foreign policy in its fold but.

if he loves the arts international will be center moscow this friday night 13th of december welcome just after 8 pm here now 5 in the early evening in the u.k. my name is kevin oh it will take you through what's happened in the big vote it was the story of the day boris johnson's conservative party winning a resoundingly for a strong showing in the historic general election in britain the prime minister says it's given him a powerful mandate to finally bring home breck's it meantime as the opposition parties they're both looking tonight for new leaders labor suffered a series of humiliating defeat and leader john we call been says he's not going to lead labor into the next election over the liberal democrat count there licking their wounds to their head joe swinson even lost her seat along to london shortly hopefully saskatoon. going to be there in the coming hours to bring us more fallout

on the vote down hawkins is here in the studio as well but 1st here's how the party leaders reacted to an historic night in westminster. proud to say that members of our new one nation government a people's government will sit tight from constituencies that have never returned a conservative m.p. for 100 years and yes they will have an overwhelming mandate from this election to get bricks it done and we will honor that mandate by general the 31st of all not lead the party in any future general election campaign i will discuss with our party to ensure there is a process now of reflection on this result and on the policies that the party will take going forward. so the world's already in motion and the prime minister has already gone through the from of meeting the queen to be granted permission to form a government tradition in britain with our special 10 hour election coverage live

from the u.k. wrapped up as mentioned we can discuss the big talking points for the correspondent here in moscow diana hawkins it also sounds good in london as well so. the chance to say hello before hope you can hear me well take us through what's happening around you quiet at the moment because a lot bubbling under the surface take us through this drama. what duffey syndrome i wouldn't see new to some sleep i'll tell you that one thing they told us that there would be no vote as divisive as the 2016 that referendum while june 26th got some competition because we need to do is go on twitter to see the voters frustration that fury and that anger at the results of general election we now know of course of fish to me that the conservatives had to drop by boris johnson stormed to victory without with rather results that haven't been seen since margaret thatcher in the eighty's and they've really left their main opposition that is of course the labor party trailing behind in the dust it was

a wipe out that was result in 30 years so the majority who backed boris probably woke up with a big smile on their face in the minority however i thought well friday the 13th how after this is our show so you can see i'm standing opposite downing street that's right behind me you can see quite a strong police presence people have decided that they want to come and show that they are not pleased with the new elected prime minister they say that he's a racist that he's a bigot that he suffered from the pope and he is just not fit to lead a country as multicultural as diverse as the u.k. so you can see on some of the pockets behind me no to racism no to boris johnson to fly it tory rule these people have come out and they want to show that ok we didn't get the leader that we wanted but we're not going to give up the good. right we're not going to allow him to have an easy 5 years we're going to make it hard on him but of course the goal of these allegations and accusations against ford's

johnson's director didn't really seem to matter to those 14000000 people who went to the polls yesterday and put the needle cross by the conservative box on the ballot paper they clearly decided that boris johnson was the only possible who would deliver on their main question and the main wish it seems of the majority of the british public at the moment is to get rights that taught so they decided up and down the country to time the facts on the parties that they be normal to for decades and say i'm going to give forrest a majority in order that he can go and pass legislation through parliament that's not to say it's all going to be easy to meet many challenges ahead but it will be considerably more smooth sailing now to have a comfortable majority so as you can see people are only now starting to trickle in we're expecting on the facebook group which is organized all of this as us are going to be a couple of 100 if not a 1000 people so clearly it does still a lot of

a lot of frustration and tension growing we know of course that 2016 since that it's been one of the most tense moments in british politics and they were hoping of course that the general election would provide some clarity quite some carbs to allow the country to move on but if these kinds of protests which i know are also being organized in other cities including bristol in the north of the country that will it looks like we're going to be on this roller coaster for some time still or leave you where you are just post 5 believing i suppose people finishing work take it in what's up with the days those final votes were counted and absorbing it a country divided didn't many ways over bricks will it be annoyed to the left of this vote could not just say for the conservatives most of what you'd like to maybe get to charts and leave people to sleep through the floor so you're going to the studio. we've had live coverage from our london studios all day no it's over to us so the conservative got 365 mph labor way beyond 203 s. and p. 48 lib dems way down 11 it's

a huge solid win for boris johnson the polls were saying this was going to happen along the way pretty much on on target but he must be very happy man tonight but does it mean that is any less dividing the country well i think either way whichever way this election was going to go half the country was going to wake up disappointed and saskia has said that's exactly what has happened and of course the conservatives ran this campaign on a simple clear result a message which is vets get bricks done which boris johnson can now do given he's got that comfortable geraghty both of them parliament the tory rebels those 21 had to remove the expelled from the party 11 of them have lost their seats the rest have been kicked into line so he has no opposition within his party although the parliament. passing up rocks at the although in parliament is just one step of a complex process he's going to have to go into negotiations with the e.u. and get a trade deal done ratified agreed by june 20th wales it we're only hearing yesterday from the michel barnier the european negotiator there's no way it's going to happen

by the end 2020. and that is europe is saying no so what is going to mean for britain well no trade deal of this size or complexity has been negotiated ever in a time frame we're talking about 11 months time should this not be ratified should just not be aggrieved the e.u. or the u.k. rather face of the prospect of a no deal brics that by december 2020 broad short of course has refused to look at an extension to that deadline that june 2020 deadline so no deal breaks it still that is still on the cards yes that's of course the concern for many think tanks analysts economists that such a lot of sort of war repeated of the dangers of you know your bricks should that not resigned agreed ratified in those 11 months which as you said there bonnie said as unlikely that prospect is still there that's the prospect as word of course so many members of that read dire predictions ok now of course aside from the big thing this is all largely been a political ramifications up in scotland as well fantastic but the s. and p.

we saw nicholas those in there jumping for joy they've won a. higher number of c. 8 percent increase the vote share since last year the last election rather this of course from near some piece point if you will give them and to push for a 2nd independence referendum now i don't think starts as pretend when everybody who voted for this and b. supports independence but it could could could come sooner rather than we think in fact the members of the scottish parliament they're going to release a what they describe would be a tell democratic case as early as next week following holyrood decide which way to go on this they're debating a final stage of legislation for any future referendum in. and already so that is something that is going to come up how much that's going to be to push through of course given the tories opposition to this is another question but the mood very much is still there this was nicholas sturgeon on yesterday's results. stunning

election win last night for the s.n.p. renu is reinforces and strengthens the mandate we have from previous elections to offer the people of scotland a choice over the future that mandate says that it is for the scottish parliament not a waste mr government to say where and when this should be a new referendum on independence and this is just about bricks that i mean sort of to invoke a sort of sort of cliche here that we've heard this rise of nationalism you know in in greece in spain in france for the pens martin cetera this does raise the the specter of nationalism foursomes there as well because of course in northern ireland the results came in this is the 1st time since 1921 since the partition of ireland that the national are so going to outnumber the pro westminster the do you believe the unionist parties in those seats in the. deputy party is that to be the lost his seat to fame there is also indications among polls a poll out just in september that there is

a mood for reunification in the island as well that's going to be a cause of concern for westminster because by winning this election many critics have said they've actually brought the prospect of independence in scotland of reunification on in a step closer than had labor won so that's certainly another dimension to it isn't only let's bring in chris mihm rutty no political analyst on the line from london earth stay with us please either thanks for your time so a good night for boris johnson we've just heard from hawkins who in the studio some of the immediate run for cations to come out for it anyway breaks it let's talk about that 1st the p.m.'s promise to take britain get bricks it done is it done and dusted is it a clear a clear pathway or are still more hurdles what's britain going to expect over the next couple of months as bode. well i think you don't really need me to answer that i think the energy rich off the question shows how long in the process we still are into this briggs that school johnson definitely has a strong mandate 8080 plus extra m.p.'s than what he than what he needed to get

this bill through but that doesn't mean briggs it is done and dusted i also think it's a bit of a fallacy to say that this gives more certainty to business because what this does is just show that he has the power know what he thinks is necessary but he hasn't set the world yet or to the u.k. yet what that actually is tangibly what does briggs it mean what are the main dimensions to it so this is a long road to go still ringing in my ears some to reserve may but you know unless i'm certain myself so you will look at on of over here in russia i'm still none the wiser but so much of it is a lot of jargon to live but what's a good at mean for brits and their jobs and this security what's going to mean if this happens before the end of january for imports exports trade deals where are we here. sure very very true and my firm wrote about this in a publication last year and the title was why briggs it won't happen and the main idea of the report was the fact that breaks that identity wasn't made clear in the

1st place the actual tangible points of what we're going to do how we're going to do it and how long it's going to take was it made clear and now it's almost as if the needs to invent what breaks it means and push push it through within the next 12 or 1111 months and as you mentioned already that no deal has been done that fast you know the forces that i know of as i think south korea which took less than 2 years by the britain's place in the e.u. is much stronger much more much more interconnected so they need to spend i think a lot longer to make sure this is a deal that works best for the u.k. and also for the e.u. and lisbon done organiser in the studio alongside kevin just how much pressure does this put on boris johnson big. obviously they came to power with this quite clear resulting message get brakes done before before january 31st. you know given the complexities involved in these negotiations and given the fact that many labor voters kind of almost lend their vote to the conservatives as one time thing

because of the brics a question if there is any sort of delay if you sort of dial in any sort of chance that doesn't look like they're going to fulfill that pledge that is going to be very damaging vote wise for the next election isn't it for the conservatives. then you're right there and i think also you have to consider the fact that boris johnson is a very charismatic character i think he knows how to play the crowd and even if he does feel pressure which i'm sure he does he's not going to let a show so p.r. is going to be a great is going to be a major major asset to his to his push towards getting breaks done as he says and even the fact get briggs done was it was very clear throughout his campaigning which is what people bought into how he's going to do that he didn't really get too deep into it but he just wanted the public to know that he will get it done so it's a big question mark as to how he does it but definitely the eyes of the u.k. especially for those who didn't vote conservative traditionally are going to be waiting and seeing to see what he does so out of the end of this we will see whether he is you know the great hope for the u.k. or whether he told us a bunch of dreams just don't give me

a mobile phone or put in this pocket or i can see political analysts think you. will be across what's happening in familiar demonstrations this kickoff later on in london as well thanks guys ok now next the security situation in west africa is we're going to talk about next deteriorating for the militants there killed at least $71.00 soldiers it was the deadliest attack on the country's army in years an islamic terror group has claimed responsibility for the attack which also left 12 others injured it took place out of a nope respond meeting between french president among them across 5 west african leaders over security in said region france has insisted its nato allies take the situation seriously and provide more support right now as for donald quarter our correspondent. delves into the challenges paris is facing right now in asia and indeed in some more of its former colonies to. africa has become a hotbed of terrorist activity as deadly attacks claiming hundreds of lives have

spread like a wildfire. europe will have to swords of damocles over its head terrorism and kidnappings but also illegal immigrants since many are traveling through this region following one of the deadliest attacks in niger for 70 people were killed by islamists the big players have even postponed a big summit to reconsider their efforts the presidents of france uneasier agreed to postpone the summit on operation by kanya on the joint chiefs on health force until early 2020 that you president say express their determination to remain

united against terrorist groups and to redefine together in the coming weeks the political and operational framework for ensuring the security of the sa held countries france spends millions of euros and sends thousands of soldiers to control the situation there but with the region's poor infrastructure damage control is difficult to say the least france needs help also context a lot in this context and in light of the decisions that france will take a big engagement by its allies is obviously something that would be quite positive in this a hell france is involved in acting on behalf of everyone there are other budgetary questions the means but at least as important in our eyes is a contribution of the europeans to operations to the management of prices. it would not be right to spend the 2 percent without haven't actually done anything with the armed forces just at the moment when crisis require a response and it's not the 1st time macron has been vocal over the issue the french president also criticized nato for bickering over defense spending instead

of doing more to help the war on terror and sahil why does france care so much about saw hell as is almost always the case it's about africa's natural resources the border of mali and niger is lined with your rainy a mind so vitally important for french power stations of course it's also dangerous if islamic fundamentalists grow an influence there they would only need to travel through libya for a direct line to the european continent and with sahil being half the size of europe it's not easy to isolate terrorist cells as for paris well it shifts the blame to the african states which can't cope with these challenges alone it almost seems like afghanistan all over again deteriorating government control and growing influence from islamic radicals who are some parallels between france's difficulties fighting terrorism in the soho and american difficulties fighting to resign. but of police shootings are very revealing tejas from the.

militants in both cases you have the. power trying to essentially staple who is. remotely in the real questions. citizens of those countries whether it's worth it to continue investing comfortably in for. them for assistance from get involved. not only. to come. but for their own national interests i think out in the. intervention in mali in 2013 there may have been a false sense in fruits that it. on this kind of towards oh i think france will increasingly try to get other western countries especially if united states in the u.k. are trying real hard terms and involvement. coming up to 19 past the hour no very

good even watching out international tonight with me kevin our next story of preventing l g b t l to piece of the garden of eden one church in the swedish city of mulm 0 is being forced to take it down again as it appears all's not ok in the picture of paradise. 'd on sunday history's read and students only l.g.b. t. altarpiece is received in st paul's church in mamma of course it hangs in the choir next to the old altar of peace where so happy and proud. there is the serpents which traditionally stands for evil and it also turns out to be a trans person which may be interpreted in a way that

a trans person is evil or even the devil the church of sweden absolutely cannot support this. plan to set up an agnostic altarpiece instead. how do they even know it's a snake bit make identify itself as a donkey. so much positive advertising for nothing. the so-called council culture online has targeted a blogger who's become popular for openness with tourette syndrome that it is or that makes a person move or crucially say things uncontrollably often offensive stuff calls for her to be bad and would trigger it after she blurted out an anti semitic slur during a live stream sweetening it isn't and she's over half a 1000000 followers on the social media platform which does mention she's gained

popularity for sharing her struggles with 2 ret syndrome but that's left are now open to strong criticism over some of the more offensive utterings. you know if you have to read it you still should get a ban if you accidentally hit someone with your car your assailant falls for hitting someone with your car some way to meet yourself i know what the girl said was bad but gawd what a horrible thing to write about someone to read it's another excuse to use your condition to have the ability to say anything even if it's just because you know you're not supposed to ok what you think about this whole less get a debate going show we for reaction to this we've got with the blog and anti semitism richard millet and political and social commentator miles even god's following both here me thanks you time tonight richard to you 1st off what you think about this than tourette's syndrome is of course a disorder 3 3 where the person that's got it can say some pretty offensive things

they don't mean to do it just comes out something triggers in their head should you be if you know this person has got and you're watching it you're looking at the stream should you be offended if that kind of thing happens or what do you think. i it's difficult but i don't think so i think actually the major problem is society that there's no intent behind what what she said and she's obviously you know she's a very articulate person from what i could see and she came out with racial slurs against the jewish community and against another ethnic minority but i think this is probably something that is going around in the coach of society we've just had a and then action in the u.k. we've had an extremely ugly semitic party kept out of government but the small jewish community in this country was very scared that this could happen and this the labor party brought up a lot of value semitism the seat and says this is society and i think that's the

major problem is is where is this coming from why are people with so lost to it repeating these racial slurs and that's i think the underlying issue. because the whole world of broadcasting and information swapping has changed so much over the last decade or so. used to be pretty clear down the line what you could get away with what you couldn't get away with but now it is a kind of a free for all isn't it mo. where do you stand on this is it done to the person who's watching this stuff with the down to the person is broadcasting this stuff. well i think this example about sweet anita her name is. a few issues the 1st is where is the line of demarcation on freedom of speech rest now obviously if somebody has got a psychiatric or a medical or a health condition like to read where she's unable to stop putting things out on stand her dad's block and she's got a fighting dad a speaker down in case she offends him i mean it must there are real challenges and

when people use social media platforms to try and popularise their condition or get people to understand their condition better i think we have to be sympathetic and we have to be very forgiving and a name like jewish brothers and sisters as well as a my black brothers sisters and anybody else who might be offended by any comment some of it says i think they'll give me a wide berth i think at the same time the question we're asking is do people with tourettes or in this particular case seeing as he's british how she somehow imbibed or absorbed some latent anti semitism or far right views in society generally i think is that i think is a porsche to use it as a party political kickball i mean otherwise what we're saying is. a semitism so let's all vote for the most islamophobia big far right party we've ever seen in british history that i think that rationale for doesn't isn't quite possible logic test but i do think however there is a question to be raised which is the kind of backlash we've seen again cisco and she has popularized her platform and her social media profile based on getting

people to understand what it's like to live with and i think many people have used this as some kind of. an opportunity just to be outraged and just to garner their own support so we see this lever leveraging now of wedge issues for offense but when you're the lawyer in me i'm. going on what you're talking about killing people would you draw the line if you say well the girl's got threats you've got to draw the line aplomb. you know that the difficulty is going to be for social media platforms because ultimately those kind of broadcasts and publications are going to be difficult as we've seen the terrorist incidents the social media can only act retrospectively it doesn't quite yet have the technology to preempt or thoughtcrime people off the platforms now i think once she comes with a caveat we know the caveat is i have to read anything at any point we have to give her a wide berth it's not the same as high peddlers hate mongers people who dress up opposition

to israel as anti semitism or people who falsely label people on the left all the right. speech so you know i think one thing is to exploit the situation and another thing is where we've got to be generous to genuine cases richard to you. know i agree with my i mean really unfair of him to sort of imply that i'm. invoking this is a political football community has been quite scared there has been over it all once again you are right this is not about labor or the general election. but my point is that there has been an upsurge in horrific anti jewish tropes and these kind of slogans which this go stated have to come from somewhere no and it wasn't there 10 years ago. to the extreme left. to from the periphery of political society all the verge of government and you know for me and for my can i come out of it i want to. you know. yes.

well i know you me and i fully agree with what you say here and so i was just going to say that you know you will find me i have often found over the last 20 years at the forefront of the fight against anti-semitism against the attack on kosher food and i've stood shoulder to shoulder with people like rabbi from the board of deputies and chief rabbis in the past there are areas we disagree on but let me just be clear on one thing islamophobia and anti semitism has always come from continues to always come from white far right supranational but far right activists it's not from the extreme left those who create apartheid situations and say because of your religious faith or your racial origins or your background you somehow have high or low human rights than others come from that place so i don't think it's quite fair to summarize it like that but we do need to talk about how do we deal with anti semitism and the fairest way would be to ask anita and say were

you blurting out anti semitic tropes and offensive comments 5 or 10 years ago have we seen people to reps are they some kind of a an antenna are they some kind of an antenna for these things they pick these things up more there may be some truth in that absolutely but to suggest a reason to kick the left i think is a bit unfair so richard just basically do you think we do need to should be should be banned from social media where you come on the. or just program i was a bashing then i was bashing the extreme left an extreme one i think part of the anti semitism anti semitism comes from the extreme left and the extreme right we've seen it recently from extreme left it was a come coming from the extreme like i think we could all learn from this i think people are going to realize that as most is this is an antenna situation there's no intent behind what she's saying but obviously this is what she's hearing around her in society and i think somehow now that you know this is an interesting case i

don't think she should be lambasted she's not intentionally saying it and i think maybe social media and ourselves watching social media can merely eyes that we have to mind our language so in the future someone with tourettes or another illness isn't in the protel the or isn't in the state these things unintentionally and i think a free market i think you need to i think she's got lambasted by on social media she came in for a lot of criticism and she's struggling herself things just to make it worse going to her as most says is something that we have to learn social media has to learn from and everyone social what you social media that our problems in society that we have to deal with and that's more important than attacking one person just trying to live her life because she can we'll leave it there thank you for your thoughts on this blogger 9697 his and richard miller.
