2:03 pm
1st of all to south contender in london a bit earlier to discuss the stop boris protests that are still going on in the capital as she is. well they said that would never be affirmed as divisive as the press at referendum but i'm not so sure because i'm standing here well because it downing street which is of course the prime minister's residence and i'm surrounded as you can see why hundreds of going to voters who are frustrated who are furious and who are angry at the results of the state's general election the result of course being a landslide victory for the conservative party the best result in fact since margaret thatcher in 1987 a very disappointing night for its main competitor that is the labor party which saw its washed result in the teeth it is to those who backed boris and wanted to give him his majority in a pretty happy because they secured 5 years of touring government up to the minority will they woke up this friday and probably thought they were living in some kind of progress but they took not mope around they decided to rally together
2:04 pm
they decided to organize themselves via social media and needed to send it on white cool and they are very clearly categorically condemning the new elected prime minister we can hear chants of chorus boys cries out out out with the tories of course talk to not my prime minister on all the packages you can see no 2 races stand up to racism and to sexism and this is what they're accusing the jumps nothing of saying he's a bigot he's a sexist he's a racist he's a homophobe and that his comments such as the fact that muslim women the price of netiquette says because of that religious head was a prime example of how free is just not fit to need a culture as multicultural as strikes us as the water in the united kingdom and one thing of course that i want to point out to you is the european union flag how could one talk about british politics in this day and age without talking about bracks said let's make absolutely no mistake just boris johnson party won because
2:05 pm
jared mccool been the leader of the opposition labor party proved to be a very controversial sikka he's been smith. the station is very fragile fiscal views but it was brought to turris triumph now of course if we've learned anything from the last 3 years the fact that someone has a majority in parliament doesn't necessarily mean that they can get anything done but it will make it considerably easier for boris as he tries to push through that directive by chatting with the thank you 2020 so we know that since 2016 politics has proved to be so it's been such a tense political climate and if protests like this anything to go by we start to see a continuation of the fracturing of society. to tell reporters will keep an eye on even though hawkins is mentioned in the studio here daniel has this being seen more generally is it a result that even boris johnson his best dreams can imagine there was certainly
2:06 pm
one way of putting it i mean the polls are predicting that sort of majority throughout the election campaign but not to this extent i mean labor's been decimated losing your key seats in the northern heartlands of the midlands wrexham workings and west from east to call these war many of them seats which voted labor for 3050 even close to 100 years so this is very much been a defeat for labor based really on lot of people are saying on the question of brics it went in with a very clear message get breaks down it was very clear very simple it resonated with those areas with those communities that voted to leave korver and labor trying to straddle critical saying 2 seats at once failed that is why they've lost so many seats in the group inclusion of about what direction actually means whether it's going to happen when the general public has so much information. that means bricks it was juggle on the way so will deal side what is it may next and was going to happen well that's what a lot of people are asking and of course the tories have fought 2 campaigns now on
2:07 pm
bricks it means bricks it bricks to get done that's been the forefront of that complained you know other domestic policies are very much gone on the back burner here. in this last election especially it seems he's going to have no trouble passing the bricks at will through parliament that's for sure it's going to huge comfortable majority now it's got no opposition from labor and even in terms of his own m.p.'s will remember there was 21 m.p.'s that had removed or expelled from the conservative party 10 of them later came back in but only 4 of them stood again as tories and won there's even less. growth coming from the european union we've heard michel barnier say no way we're going to get a trade deal signed with britain by the end of 2020 when boris johnson says it's going to be it's going to be tough isn't it well that's the thing i mean no trade deal of this size or complexity has been negotiated with the e.u. ever and he's saying that we're going to come out by genevieve that if i asked we've been going until june 2022 negotiate this deal it's also got be ratified of
2:08 pm
course by the 27 member states if that doesn't happen the prospect of a new deal bricks that come this time next year is that very much on the table and of course the big spoke in the works along the line what's going to happen on the border between northern ireland or the republic of ireland that's still not sorted up plus there's the whole scottish question are kicking off even more with i mean nationalist parties have done fantastically well in this election i mean speaking of ireland the deputy leader. dogs lost his seat to the new can for the 1st time since $921.00 of ireland nationalists now outnumber unionist peas and certainly there are growing calls a referendum just in september this year lord ashcroft poll carried out 46 percent stating they would choose to leave the union and join the republic that's going to be overconcerned s.n.p. again a whole different kettle of fish certainly no disunity in scotland they were very clear they wanted to remain in the u.k. in the e.u. rather sorry the s. and p. has capitalized on that and made massive gains 48 seats won 8 percent increase.
2:09 pm
last night we saw nicolas 3rd in jubilant darting in fact when the. little demo to leader just wins and lot. percy this is what you had to say on independence for a friend of last night. a 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 monday says that it is for the scottish parliament not a waste mr government to say whether and when this should be a new referendum on independence we do have an update since she gave that speech sure just earlier today office of prime minister and saying there's got no intention of allowing our friend in the near future that you've results the 20. has to be respected and there will be a return to division and uncertainty so he's been an unequivocal that's not a priority that's not going to happen s. and p. they're already preparing to sit down next week and publish what they describe as
2:10 pm
a detailed democratic case for letting scotland aside and whether there should be a 2nd independence referendum so boris johnson isn't going to have it easy he may have his hands untied he may you know have lost the opposition of his own m.p.'s of labor he's got difficult negotiations coming up on he's got the question of scottish independence and in deep trouble in northern ireland as well to deal with that was a case of watch this space is going to a new year isn't it to hold his for now thanks very much so that the general election over and those we've heard a big vote of confidence for boris johnson in the tories on bracks it our colleagues are to u.k. earlier on great coverage 10 hours of it discussed with a number of guests why this happened and whether brics it will finally mean brick sit on january 31st. it to all intents and purposes the selection in the end became a practice at election which in itself was a de facto referendum and therefore in that context it is some of this and say that labor voters intrudes the areas that. west brom incident outside
2:11 pm
a booming and embrace the conservative party in seemingly large majorities then than in the leafy suburbs the sorry i don't see a referendum taking place now you know if it's a case of ever wanting to rejoin the e.u. it will be as an outside a study from a position of great obliqueness i think bracks it was probably because i said factor in most voters' minds but there were a few other issues the immunity fairly obvious that the labor's policies were quite hard left and i think that probably didn't resonate quite so well with as much as the public as they had hoped some of the policies were a little bit a little bit extreme to say the least so that was probably part of it but i think yes the predominant issue was was practice it and the conservative party presented the way forward the certainty of the resolution and the end to the torment and frustration and confusion that we've been suffering for the last few years of
2:12 pm
course it doesn't mean that the process is finished but i think the 1st stage and crucially the political element of it is now resolved. other news the u.s. and china have announced a new trade deal this friday cold phase by phase of the month of economic conflict and the agreement is set to look to remove tariffs and boost over cultural exports providing some hope maybe of a truce between the superpower. well rumors have been circulating for the past few days that some kind of deal was in the works to resolve the trade disputes between the usa and china the idea being that the tariffs would be scaled back in exchange for tens of billions of dollars of agricultural products and other things being purchased from the united states and some concessions on china's part now in response to these rumors that we heard the democrats speaking up this was chuck schumer reports say president trump sold out for
2:13 pm
a temporary unreliable promise from china to purchase some soybeans we've heard this song and dance from china before yet again present company relied on to do the right thing even when his statements were pointing in the right direction now we then heard from donald trump speaking up about how this was simply fake news this is what he said the wall street journal story on the china do is completely wrong especially this statement on tariffs fake news they should find a better leka but just a few hours afterwards we heard china come forward with an official press conference announcing that phase one of the deal was on the verge of being implemented this is what we heard from the official chinese press conference. the agreement will create better conditions for china and the united states to strengthen cool peroration economy and trade property moneys unresolved economic and trade disputes all differences and promote stable growth of china's economic and trade relations given the downward pressure on the world economy now trump
2:14 pm
spoke up afterwards saying that essentially china had agreed to a number of structural changes and would be purchasing a u.s. agricultural products as well as energy and manufactured goods also said that he was hoping to begin work on phase 2 of the agreement but he would want to do that immediately not wait until 2020 this trade war has been asking lading between the united states and china sense june of 28 teen there's been an escalation of tariffs many many different you know regulations being put in place and different products being targeted but it seems that some kind of resolution is in the works that we now have an agreement of some degree so folks we're waiting to see what happens next there has been hope before that the trade war was going to be resolved and those hopes of then been shortly afterward disappointed so what comes next it remains to be seen but at the moment many are optimistic that it appears that
2:15 pm
things are moving forward. and we can i good evening ahead militant attack on an army base in the schools that expose it deep crisis the french foreign policy the covering it what about. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics or business i'm showbusiness i'll see that. it's. simulating civilization would be able to run using a tiny fraction of its resources. hundreds of thousands millions of runs through all of human history almost all. beings with our kinds of experiences with them to simulate that once rather than on simulated ones and conditional that are good we
2:16 pm
should think fearful of one of the simulated ones. while away. china is the apollo 11. this decade. it's defining the technological landscape for a whole country going to happen for a long time. i guess the security situation in the jerry west africa is deteriorating further militants have killed at least 71 soldiers there and what is one of the deadliest attacks on the country's army in easy is an islamic terror groups claimed
2:17 pm
responsibility for what's happened which also left 12 others injured it took place for spode a meeting between french president michel mccraw and 5 west african leaders over security in the region france has insisted its nato allies take the situation seriously and provide more support the quarter next delves into the challenges paris is facing 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
2:18 pm
will have 2 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 or 70 people were killed by islamists the big players have even postponed a big summit to reconsider their efforts the president so front sunny's year agreed to postpone the summit on operation by kanya on the joint chiefs on health force until early 2020 the 2 presidents expressed 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 saddle 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 context a lot in this context of this and in light of the decisions that france will take
2:19 pm
a big engagement by its allies is obviously something that would be quite positive in the sun held in 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 having actually done anything with the armed forces just at the moment when crisis is required or. spawn's 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 you're a nehemiah it's 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
2:20 pm
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 are some parallels between france's difficulties finding 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 stable who is. remotely in the real questions. citizens of those countries whether it's worth it to continue investment company in foreign.
2:21 pm
foursomes from or get involved. not only. to combat. 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 is how to handle on this kind of targets though i think france will increasingly try to. cut it. especially if you know that states in the u.k. are trying real hard to raise them or. lower longer ban by a storage treaty the u.s. has conducted a 2nd missile test of a weapon that would have been blocked by the i.n.f. treaty with russia which washington dropped earlier this year comes just days after the russian foreign minister was in the american capital to discuss nuclear defense artist briffa nationals got the story. the united states is said to come together with allies on the possible deployment of intermediate range ballistic missiles
2:22 pm
once we develop intermediate range missiles and if my commanders require them then we will work closely and consult closely with our allies in europe asia and elsewhere with regards to any possible deployments once we develop but it seems they already have today the u.s. air force successfully tested a prototype conventional ground launch ballistic missile congrats to the joint government industry team for going from concept to launch in less than 9 months the land based missile tested at a california air force base on thursday flew further than 500 kilometers before it was terminated over the ocean a distance which by definition makes it an intermediate range missile and was banned under the i.n.f. treaty that america withdrew from in february is banned no more and all this is just days after russian foreign minister sergei lavrov returned from his stateside trip to meet secretary of state my point peo and donald trump holding and all the
