this has to be, boris johnson, this has says he likes boris. with all due respect to them and thatis with all due respect to them and that is not my experience talking to people across the country, many more people across the country, many more people are very worried about what he will do. the fact he is surrounding his with people who are ideological the same as him. that is the sign of weakness. no he had two yea rs the sign of weakness. no he had two years as foreign secretary and he achieved nothing. we are in this mess, when you talk about and you are right to talk about the domestic problems affecting, we had three year, i sit at westminster and it is ground to a halt. you see what is going on elsewhere and i am not saying things are perfect in the scottish parliament but the legislation that is passed, there are things we can do better but it is getting on with the dayjob as well. you can do both and boris has done neither. the other thing is what he did do as foreign secretary was make things worse for nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe. to not

what boris needs to balance him is not another boris site figure in number 11 another boris site figurehimself in the detail —— boris style. an authority across whitehall and knows how whitehall works. an incredibly important appointment. the other important appointment. the other important decisions on the speculation that borisjohnson offered jeremy hunt, who he defeated in this context, the role of defence secretary. which is a big job in government but a demotion from foreign secretary. jeremy hunt has a p pa re ntly foreign secretary. jeremy hunt has apparently rejected that and he wa nts apparently rejected that and he wants one of the three top jobs or he will leave. so that's a big call as well. it is borisjohnson really prepared to let the guy who's just won a third of the support of tory members and has a loss of support in the parliamentary party, is he going to let him leave government will he give him what he wants? it is that fundamental decision, balancing decision for prime ministers is do you want your enemies inside the tent or do you want them outside the tent? it is

huge win for boris.y, but they also want to have a vibrant community with investment and boris talks about yorkshire and he is visited as well, he has lots of yorkshire voices. they are all working for him. once he delivers on brexit, they will see he's the man who can deliver for the party and he will bring us together. and last of the summer wine country, people had been reflecting on the bigness. it was hard to find anyone in celebratory mood. for the new prime minister. oh, i know! iwant to disappear. ultimately, if he can deliver brexit in the best way possible is best for everybody i think that's what we need. he's going to be a good prime minister i think so. we are going to pray him. here er, i sat in the glorious sunshine. what a treat. and while we had been sitting here we have a new prime minister. have we? what have we got? boris johnson what you think is not i'm not happy. because he will ruin the country. really, you wa nt will ruin the country. really, you want winston churchill. it somebo

there are two types of boris johnson, there is the bluff and bluster boris and the pragmatic boris, sopragmatic version. boris is a controversial character. we have known that from the get go, from day one andl known that from the get go, from day one and i think it will be incredibly helpful in the negotiation process that he has kept his cards close to his chest i'm not exactly laid out his plans and intentions and that has been tactical and clever in doing that. what reputation does borisjohnson help with younger people?” what reputation does borisjohnson help with younger people? i think he is popular among the conservative youth. he is one of the more liberal conservative members, which is a lwa ys conservative members, which is always positive and his very pro—lgbt rights and he voted to repeal section 28 and he was one of the first to speak out on same sex marriage and his pro—tax cuts and pro—business and opportunity, that is what resonates with young people. it's going to be about brexit. do you think he will have got this country out of the eu by october the 3ist? country out

hopefully boris johnson will be successful. what is happening, perhaps our expert could comment on what is happening with the departure of a lot of financial tuitions to dublin. it seems like dublin, ireland is that aing by the fear lot of companies are aseriencing to go to dublin the next financial headquarters instead of london. host: thanks, george. guest: thank you. this is a very complicated story. thank you. it is hard for all of us to figure out. analyticallybrexit , we are seeing a great experiment. we just do not know how the experiment is going to work out. for 40 years, the united kingdom has been part of the world worlds largest trade block -- the european union. but the u.k. is saying, i want a different model. a more flexible, nimble model that i can control, and we are about to see who is the better model. so this is in part, if you take away your passions one way or another, and analytical experiment. you are absolutely right. what we have seen over the last three years since the results of the referendum came t

boris johnson has won the race lead the u.k.'ruling party and will become prime minister on wednesday. he has vowed to take the u.k. out of the e.u. come what may. he needs to unite a divided country and nation. two-horse race but there has only ever been one front runner. boris johnson demolished jeremy hunt with double the number of votes to become leader of the conservative, and on wednesday, the country. he must repair a and nation torn apart by brexit. deliver brexit, unite the country, and defeat jeremy corbyn. it was already pointed out that deliver, unite, and defeat was not the perfect acronym for an election campaign. this unfortunately spell dud, but they forgot the final "e", my friends, " "e" for energized. dude, we are going to energize the country. we are going to take advantage of opportunities that it will bring in a new spirit of can-do. reporter: boris johnson has a clear mandate among conservatives to lead the party. his do or die promise to leave the e.u. even without a deal has polarized and panicked many of

that kind of makes sense to boris.egation. he has very clear ideas and he is one who boris might want to delegate to. that sense and it might make sense of bringing the tory party together. it is interesting listening to nigel eva ns, it is interesting listening to nigel evans, quite excited about dominic cummings coming back. of course, dominic cummings and michael gove really did push the eurosceptics, those who have long been eurosceptics, away from vote lead. he is seen as a very divisive figure. many people who are devoted to him would not want to serve and a administration he was a part of. if you think about some of those key appointments that have already been made, we have seen, we expect,... of course, saying that michael gove, he was part and one of the architects of borisjohnson of was part and one of the architects of boris johnson of that referendum campaign. so, of course, it will be interesting to see how people respond that, even within the brexit camp itself. i think it is very demonstrative of the fa

really boris?lly knows what nobody alive who actually knows what no deal would feel like. on the one hand we have people saying that britain can easily whether this. on the other hand we have those experts, the industry and economic voices warning us of a really serious blow to the country. no, no, says serious blow to the country. no, no, sastohnson. but serious blow to the country. no, no, says johnson. but here serious blow to the country. no, no, sastohnson. but here he faces his second imminent crisis. he has virtually no parliamentary majority and a bitterly divided party. senior ministers, led by the outgoing chancellor, philip hammond, are determined. no deal. chancellor, philip hammond, are determined. no deallj chancellor, philip hammond, are determined. no deal. itherefore intend to resign. last week, mps voted to make it tougher for intend to resign. last week, mps voted to make it tougherforjohnson to effectively lock up parliament to ensure no deal doesn't happen. it is a pretty rum i

and what about this notion of boris johnson being a british version of donald trump. now that seems rather clear and present danger about the bigger danger is really that he will lead britain to the point where it becomes. donald trump who will i mean if in there was tony blair and george w. bush the british popular populations does remember that is really stuck in collective memory and if he goes that way things can go very wrong very quickly for him look at iraq. crisis with iran if he now turns if he doesn't get from these european allies what she wants quickly enough in a military way he might turn to washington and say ok i go was the americans what does that mean that he will adopt is absolutely more belligerent stance towards iran that he will lose the support and the alliance was paris and berlin and it will be a whole different ball game in foreign policy will he do it nobody you know it is a danger and of course bracks it if he does throw his luck was donald trump and says all we really need is a really quick and good trade deal with the united states he can

boris johnson — 92,153.herefore, i give notice that borisjohnson is elected as the leader of the conservative and unionist party. deliver brexit, unite the country and defeatjeremy corbyn, and that is what we are going to do. he will take over at number 10 tomorrow, forming a new cabinet will be among his first tasks mrjohnson has already promised to deliver brexit by october the 31st — the president of the eu commission says he is looking forward to working with him and president trump has already congratulated borisjohnson — saying ‘he will be great‘. we'll have all the latest from here in westminster and we'll be getting reaction from across the country and from brussels. also this lunchtime: the uk prepares for a heatwave as temperatures climb well above 30 degrees this week and coming up on bbc news, jimmy anderson is out of england's only warm up match for the ashes. they play ireland tomorrow but anderson has been struggling with a calf injury. good afternoon and welcome to bbc news at one. so now we

media dropped that name boris britain's know exactly who they're talking about as it happens the news business is where johnson got his start where his troublesome relationship with the facts 1st surfaced back in the late 1980 s. after getting fired from his 1st reporting job for inventing a quote johnson wound up as a correspondent in brussels where he produced a slew of flimsy euro skeptic stories that readers found amusing stories that could well have sowed seeds in people's minds for an eventual brecht's it fast forward 30 odd years and there was johnson a key asset on the leaves side in the 2016 referendum campaign saying the same kinds of things about the. as a politician that he wants to read as a journalist these days the british media finally seem to have clued into the fact that entertainment value isn't everything that boris johnson falls dangerously short of the qualifications for the job but he already has one foot in the door of 10 downing street so there's no awakening is looking like too little too late our starting point this week is london. we live in populist times

boris 92,153 johnson. jeremy hunt 116,656. boris 92,153 johnson. deliver brexit, unites the country and defeat to get any carbon. that is what we are going to do. he will be a great prime minister. he has optimism, enthusiasm, he puts a smile on people's face and he has a total unsha keable confidence. he's promised to deliver brexit by october the 31st. the new eu commission president says she's looking forward to working with him in the "challenging times ahead". and president trump has already congratulated borisjohnson, saying "he will be great." the uk prepares for a heatwave, as temperatures climb well above 30 degrees this week. so, now we know, and, in the end, there was no great surprise. boris johnson was favourite to win from the start — and now he's been voted in as the new conservative leader. he will officially take office as prime minister tomorrow — after a meeting with the queen at buckingham palace. borisjohnson gained around double the votesjeremy hunt did from conservative party members. in his victory speech, mrjohnson promised

oh, please call me boris.rismatic frontman, happy to perform for the cameras... and the mishaps only added to the celebrity status. release the rings into position...now! his supporters say his leadership style is all about creating a feel—good factor. he's very good at bringing people together, actually. some people consider him to be divisive because of things that he's written and things he's said in the past. however, he's able to go into a room and he's able to get people feeling positive, and feeling like they can achieve some change. he did it in london. let's hope he can do it for the country. over the years, his private life brought unwanted press attention. i have absolutely no comment. during his 25—year marriage, he had several affairs. he was sacked as a conservative spokesman for lying about one of them. last year, he split up from his wife marina. professional relationships have been strained too. mrjohnson‘s two years as foreign secretary brought awkward moments, some with serious consequences.

i've known boris for 20 years.was finding yougov, boris decided to stand as mayor of london. the conservative party was then 17 points behind in london. everyone said it is impossible for a conservative candidate to win in london yet he came from behind and he won. london are then voted him backin he won. london are then voted him back in because of what he delivered. he delivered more affordable housing, in a downturn than the previous labour government. sorry to interrupt but these things have been set again and again about borisjohnson but have been set again and again about boris johnson but what he have been set again and again about borisjohnson but what he was not facing their was 27 other countries com pletely facing their was 27 other countries completely united saying we are not going to give you what you want. three months to do at him, when it's something that has been apparently impossible to resolve for three yea rs. impossible to resolve for three years. and parliamentary majority of two, it is testi

boris is good. laura: he is t master here now, the new leader arriving to meet the party troops at conservative headquarters. a viory for a man whose political career has been down almo as much as up. a triumph of animal spirits over analysis, perhaps.so boris joh's big sell, belief. you can't question mr. johnson's enthusiasm for the pursuit of ambition. nor his promise to make the most of brexit, cleaning up the mess he helped create. but as he was chred by tory mps in the commons this afternoon, they all know a sumptuous turn of phrase, a love of controversy and power, won't be enoh on their own. laura kuenssberg, bbc news, westminster. jane: for more on boris johnson and the future of the u.k., i spoke earlier to heather conley, a former state department official who is now at the center for strategic and international's tories -- inrnational studies. she joined me and my colleague christian fraser and i started by asking how boris johnson relationship wh president ump will deliver -- will diffe

you didn't bank boris johnson of the westminster studio.bank borisjohnson of the leadership election, you back to what did you think about his assertion he can deliver brexit by october the 31st? he's made a great start, i thought the tone he struck in his remarks after the victory announcement was made and then his remarks to conservative mps at the 1922 committee, i thought those were exactly right. he's created a mood in the camp at westminster of optimism and hope. and part of boris' strength is that he's a dealer in optimism and dreams. i've a lwa ys dealer in optimism and dreams. i've always felt that unravelling the conundrum brexit and getting a deal across the line and rational, pragmatic outcome will require more than just force a personality and the charisma. so what we need to see now, i think, the charisma. so what we need to see now, ithink, is the charisma. so what we need to see now, i think, is a different kind of boris as prime minister compared to the borisjohnson that campaigned so successfully to become tory leader. tha

the with a boris glimmer of hope is boris johnson.end brexit through, and he has to hope that because otherwise it is very ha rd to hope that because otherwise it is very hard to see how you construct a different deal in that timeframe. briefly, the eu would have to be convinced any deal is worth pushing through, that boris johnson convinced any deal is worth pushing through, that borisjohnson can get it through parliament. absolutely, and the timeframe to get a bill on legislation through parliament, even if there was the will, looks, well, getting towards politically impossible. the clock is ticking. much more from norman coming up. we‘re live in westminster throughout the day with the latest developments, as boris johnson becomes our new prime minister. now let‘s cross to college green for the victoria derbyshire programme with joanna gosling. hello. it‘s wednesday. it's 9.30. i‘m joanna gosling. boris johnson is off to buckingham palace this afternoon to be confirmed as the country‘s new prime minister. i say to all the doubters,

jeremy hunt and boris johnson, boris johnson is the heavy favorite.f what he stands for and what he said on brexit. plenty more on brexit throughout the day but let's get to the first word news with viviana hurtado. >> president trump and congress of birding the risk of a damaging -- averaging the risk of a default, boosting spending for two years, leaving all sides unsatisfied and negotiators could focus on provisions they could count as a win. european governments will assemble safe passage for ships through the persian gulf, the u.k. says it will mean more royal navy warships in the region. britain accused iran of piracy was int -- iran says it retaliation for britain seizure of a tanker carrying iranian oil. president trump offering to help resolve india and pakistan's feud. he said the indian leader asked him to mediate but a spokesman for the indian prime minister said there was no such request. global news 24 hours a day, on air and @tictoc on twitter, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. i am viviana h

boris johnson he said he's tweeted his approval of boris johnson winning the prime ministership is that going to be a concern to the european union when they negotiate with boris johnson the fact that the u.k. . is showing all indications of moving towards the us. i don't think so because basically nobody really a surprise to about donald trump being delighted to their will become prime minister because they basically are made of the same stuff no one is when it comes to populism when it comes to their relationship to truth. and i think the u. is still and even after a possible u.k. snap election is still pursuing its major most important goals and the the of the most important one above all else is to protect the single marxist and so even if there was some sort of magical technical solution to keep the trade around the irish border frictionless the e.u. still wouldn't really go for that solution why not because you just cannot have a former member having exits the union and then basically have the same kind of frictionless trade or the e.u. members and members of market enjoy because

believe in boris!dministration, there is glory on day one, but there were howls of protest from whitehall throughout the speech. this is a time of strife. mrjohnson is in charge because of the failures of his party and his predecessor. for her, time today for one last bow to the commons. thank you. farewells and tributes aplenty for theresa may, but it's politics, always barbs too. i hope, mr speaker, that she has a marginally more relaxing time oi'i has a marginally more relaxing time on the backbenches, and perhaps, like the chancellor, even helping me to oppose the reckless plans of her successor. she couldn't resist it either. as a party leader that has accepted when her time was up, perhaps the time is now for him to do the same. she was willing though to laugh perhaps set herself a little, saving her grand finale to thank her constituents. that duty, to serve my constituents, will remain my greatest motivation. applause applause then after years of defeat and disappointment. a former prime minist

boris johnson takes the reins. the new u.k. prime minister has already doubled down on his brexit plan in his first address outside of 10 downing street. facebook versus the fed. the doj and the ftc have the social medias giant site slapping on a privacy settlement let's check in on all of the market action. a mixed trading day. largely driven by inconsistent results that we have been getting through the earnings season. the dow is the under performer. largely in part because of weakness we are seeing in shares of caterpillar, as well as boeing. boeing burning through $1 billion in cash as a deals with the grounding of its 737 max jets. it is the inconsistent picture that we are seeing of how the global economy is faring? if u.s. caterpillar, quite poorly. particularly in asia. ups, surging the most since 2008 as it managed to eke out revenue growth, thanks in part to new cost-cutting initiatives as well as next day delivery. shery: it seems to be that all of these big industrials have concerns about a global economic slowdown.

boris johnson has vowed to take the u.k. out of the european union by october 31st his plan is to go back to the european union renegotiate that contentious withdrawal agreement the european union though has already said there is no renegotiation and if that doesn't work for boris johnson then he wants to take out the u.k. without a deal on october 31st he said do what may that is very devices but he is also of course has been talking over the past 4 weeks to a constituency to the members of the conservative party that really want to leave the european union rather sooner than later so we don't know if you will see that through as prime minister but we can say he's boris johnson is really good in reading his constituency and this is what they want so we will see what happens ok but creasing number of his constituents are rebelling against leaving the view without a deal so considering that how stable would his future government possible government be. absolutely so a senior foreign office minister wanted to basically plot ag

well brian you have to say boris johnson knows brussels and brussels knows boris johnson quite well also well many people don't know he's a native he was he was raised to respect a good deal of his time growing up since his father was working in the european institutions here and then later before he entered politics he was a journalist i'm he worked as a correspondent in here in brussels and some say that during this time he formed the tradition of british skeptical e.u. journalism with you know colorful exaggerated stories and just another thing that you just got banned for british citizens stories like that and this story telling he even continued during his time as a as a foreign minister when he would come on a regular basis to brussels. to the european council so there he got the reputation that he was ill informed and also quite under platic so with this track record there is not much trust among e.u. leaders and boris johnson ok that was that track record and his promise to get britain out of the e.u. with or without a deal that got him where where he is today is no deal bricks a

boris is good, he's going to do a good job.holds here in westminster now that we have a new leader of the conservative party. tomorrow, theresa may will take part in herfinal prime minister's questions in the commons. shortly after that, mrs may will head to buckingham palace to offer her resignation to the queen. she'll then be swiftly followed by her successor, boris johnson, who will ask her majesty for permission to form a government. after that, mrjohnson will deliver his first speech as prime minister outside number 10, before announcing who will make up his new government. then on thursday, parliament breaks up for its summer recess. it will resume on september the third. to discuss the challenges facing boris johnson when he formally takes over as prime minister, i'm joined by catherine haddon, senior fellow at the institute for government. talk to us about the logistics of this changeover in downing street. is it likely to be smooth as it is in the united states? yes, the officials in buckingham palace are used to doin

downing street accused of a plot to smear boris.n they employ boris johnson at least it's backing him, so it's very sympathetic to the story i think that the telegraph is taken basically saying which has been denied by both borisjohnson camp saying is completely untrue and it was never and they never denied information. plot by therese and the critics to try and boost jeremy hunt's campaign because she would rather see jeremy hunt become prime minister than borisjohnson rather see jeremy hunt become prime minister than boris johnson i'm rather see jeremy hunt become prime minister than borisjohnson i'm not sure, we could just be talking about that paul and the times showing all the things may be damaging for boris johnson and a candidate to seem to balance above him suggesting that basically teresa and they did not trust him enough for him to see sensitive information. number ten says they can't comment on those matters but this is complete nonsense for the boris johnson team. hello chris wood he know he was it was complete nonsense

boris already said he wa nted perfect sense.d he wanted to have more women in cabinet. down at the rose garden area there are pictures above all the previous cabinets, glue the back and see margaret thatcher sitting as the only woman in cupboard cabinet and you realise just how out of date that looks in modern—day britain. it is really good that boris is pursuing that and making the cabinet more like the country. so, what kind of leader is boris johnson more like the country. so, what kind of leader is borisjohnson going to be? his team talk about his time as london mayor were he delegated, but he was a figurehead, really. leading the charge, these are him in front of the cameras and all the rest of it. it is different though when you're prime minister, you do obviously have to make the decision. he cannot delegate anywhere near as much. but the most important job as preminger stresses that the objectives and agenda. i think in that speech you saw borisjohnson really setting out the big picture. but also, not just really setting
