michael gove given all we know about him and boris johnson? some years ago? him and boris johnson? some years ? i him and boris johnson? some years ago? i think the political knifing of borisjohnson a ago? i think the political knifing of boris johnson a few years ago when they were both going to the leadership of the party still remains in people 's minds. boris johnson was the front—runner and michael gove came in on the day, he was going to announce that he wanted to go to the party leadership and said actually, i want to run myself the whole time. it caused a lot of up5et. the thing ifind odd, i've never heard of crispin odie, that's probably my ignorance because he is a hedge fund manager and has given the tory party £50,000 but white his views on this were the front page on the observer? i've never heard of him, you've never heard of him and you are political reporter, have you? no, he means nothing. why is it so you? no, he means nothing. why is it so significant that he is saying this? i may be entirely wrong. interesting reading for michael gove, though. just because form

telegraph of a recorded conversation by boris johnson. i think boris johnson is by boris johnson. is speaking for millions and millions of brexiteers. they may not have attended for his comments to be made public but yes, front page of the telegraph reports saying, we can say in the customs union and to the larger extent in the single market u nless larger extent in the single market unless the government had the guts to policy. seemingly not believing the brexit he campaigned for is going to be delivered, he also the treasury the heart of remain. the fa ct of treasury the heart of remain. the fact of the matter is, people around the cabinet table did campaign and you believe in very different things when it comes to brexit. that's just a fact. some campaigned very passionately. theresa may kind of sat in the middle. the fact is, this was always going to happen because you've not got the person that actually believes in this. it would have made much more sense to actually have people around the table he blew all believe in it. at least you would have got something coherent. not di

i've read boris johnson's article, it's all about how wonderful we are and we could even be the strongest world, but we are actually the slowest in the mould —— in the world because of brexit. they live in this fantasyland where because they wish it could be good, it will happen. but without getting into the nitty—gritty, it's actually quite technical about how do we align our relations to the eu? if we don't, businesses will leave because they like the continuity, it makes it easierfor them, but they like the continuity, it makes it easier for them, but they have to do anyway. as i said, the extraordinarily complex issue, with air -- extraordinarily complex issue, with air —— airbus is about four different eu agencies that they need to pull out of. they don't address this, but they have fantastic flag—waving, world cup, we are all wonderful, let's raise the second world war again language, which as i say is completely opposite to the action that needs to be done. many people who are watching bull entirely disagree with you and say that we will see the details when the government is ready

boris johnson said vote against heathrow in the commons.would lie in front of the bulldozers to prevent heathrow. he will not be taking part. boris johnson may make big promises, but they do not always come true. he was strong on this issue as mayor of london and was very clear about it. and as an mp in west london. it is a big issue for him. the big vote in the commons, waiting for years, he will be conveniently out of the country and not able to vote. a very important diplomatic issue, they have not figured it out yet. he will not be here. this makes him look bad. he was ina here. this makes him look bad. he was in a good job and on the up. well liked. ending his career as it is. it puts the pressure on boris johnson. this is difficult for labour and the conservatives. they we re labour and the conservatives. they were pushing hard for it. the conservatives were against it. and now the roles have reversed when the job has reversed. the tories think they have the votes. they have the backing of strange alliances like the snp. they should g

it is, there is speculation boris johnson or david davis liam fox might resign.will edge towards a softer brexit and they will put up with it and use words to cover up will put up with it and use words to coverup their will put up with it and use words to cover up their embarrassment. she might be keen to get rid of the troublemakers at this point but i ee, troublemakers at this point but i agree, i think they need something solid and they don't have it. what can we read into borisjohnson‘s what can i say politely, noises off? its colourful language, he talked about bog roll brexit because it was soft and yielding and long. which is disloyal and unhelpful to theresa may. but it's not crossing any sort of red lines of collective cabinet responsibility. but the business thing... that was bad. but it was a private remark everyone can pretend... the public watching that, if you are the foreign secretary at such a crucial time you cannot make private, private remarks begin and end. the independent has said we ought to get rid of boris for quite some time. he is a joke

colourful language from boris johnson but we westminster?hat surprising they ended up being recorded and falling into the hands of the media and shall borisjohnson was not too surprised that happened. —— and i'm sure. low friends of his said they were disappointed a recording had been made covertly —— although friends. the prime minister still has confidence in the foreign secretary with her spokesman saying all of the government is working ha rd to all of the government is working hard to deliver brexit. but it wasn't just on the hard to deliver brexit. but it wasn'tjust on the eu and brexit that boris johnson wasn'tjust on the eu and brexit that borisjohnson was caught talking about, user spoke about his admiration for president trump and his method —— he also spoke. and he suggested that donald trump may even doa suggested that donald trump may even do a betterjob when it comes to the brexit negotiations, something philip hammond did not quite agree with. my experience has been that collaborative approach is generally more productive than

boris johnson was people and i am getting on and doing it.rivate dinner thing leave voters might not get the deal they want and he hinted that donald trump could do a betterjob. he would go in bloody hard. there would be all sorts of chaos. everyone would think he had gone mad but you might get somewhere. donald trump says russia should be readmitted to the g7 as he arrives at the summit in canada. a 90—year—old woman is seriously ill in hospital after being attacked in her bed in london. in a moment, it will

telegraph also put it on the front page, borisjohnson telegraph also put it on the front page, boris johnsonfront page, borisjohnson casts doubt on whether he will ever be built. it could be a long time coming if indeed it ever comes about. that as the vote is won by the government tonight. on the decision, it also reports on the main issue of drugs to manage children's behaviour. the chemical cost, and trying to medicate their way bad behaviour. express is the long hours that they're forced to work and leaving them so drained, how their health to be at risk. the story, a truncated review, for the longer byte of the papers at half of 11, maybe given that everyone knew the results of the vote was where was boris? they say he was in afghanistan, which is rather interesting, given the fact that we have both heard from very senior sources that he was due to be somewhere else indeed. and that had been due to be in libya. and so, he ended up there and we joked that we think it's because there are probably about four places in the entire world were you could've gone with this couldn't have followed

what do you make of boris johnson's intervention?w he had a go at china, trump was the only one who came out of it well. he said it would be —— this would be amusing was it not for the fact that this was it not for the fact that this was our foreign secretary. the cat has been let out the back, this is what they really think when caught off guard. they are preparing to have a damaging brexit. they know we will get a bad deal but he has a nonchalant attitude. on business, there are people's lives and livelihoods that are already hurting. the trump tribute act, this isa hurting. the trump tribute act, this is a president on the verge of bringing the north korean leader to the table? let's get back to the brexit stuff which is rather alarming, this is a politician who originally wrote one article four and one article against. and take the calculation... he is only interested in his own career. that is the only think boris johnson interested in his own career. that is the only think borisjohnson is interested in, he plays to the gallery

either way backed theresa may you will get boris johnson.. either way a lot of pressure. it is and a lot of it is aimed at tory mp's. did not aimed at us as aimed at tory mp's. did not aimed at us as readers, it's winding up the pressure and leading tory mp's think there is a genuine threat. is the really? the telegraph story is a highly unusual show of unity across the brexit divide. amber rudd who was in four remain writing a piece with iain duncan smith, is that across the brexit remain? amber rudd has a very pro brexit seat with a tiny majority so you might see why she is fairly pro brexit. also a close ally of the prime minister. at the end of the date she relies on votes to get back, its constituents she needs to think about. i'm not sure it is as big a deal as they making out. i wonder if theresa may reads all the stories and thanks i will survive. she is humming it to herself as she reads these. isn't the substance, you start to read the story and you think it's great possibility. let's show you the front page of the observer which a

that is what i can say in reply to boris johnson is that we are drawing up our position, taking full as we can, taking account of the british red lines, those which borisjohnson of the british red lines, those which boris johnson and of the british red lines, those which borisjohnson and his colleagues have set out, and which have been set out, too, by the british government. from time to time, we respect the british red lines, and it would be perhaps good if britain could also respect its own red lines, and just to be quite clear about this, if these red lines we re clear about this, if these red lines were to evolve on the british side, were to evolve on the british side, we would be open straightaway, and the european council itself has said this in its own guidelines, we would be prepared to adjust our position to reopen or adjust our offer in the light of whatever redlines britain has. we are working on the basis of the current redlines. translation: on the future relationship, you talked about an economic partnership and strategic cooperation on security matters. looking at whe

and a political solution but what boris johnson didn't mention in that tweet is that the u.k. is practically saudi arabia's best friend on the world stage especially when it comes to the arms trade the british government has licensed over four point six billion pounds worth of weapons to saudi forces since the war started back in twenty fifteen and about sixteen thousand yemeni civilians have died since twenty fifteen when the saudi led coalition first started bombing iranian backed the rebels there so campaign is in the u.k. say this isn't about a u.n. security council meeting what's needed is a change in policy from the u.k. government and there are questions over whether a security council meeting or a number of them can achieve anything while the u.k. continues its policy of arming the saudis. the united nations has condemned israel's crackdown on protests along the gaza border where dozens of people have been killed since march resolution was passed at the general assembly with one hundred twenty votes in favor and eight against israel and the united states were among the

your foreign secretary, boris johnson said that you could perhaps learn something from donald trump'sthese are complex negotiations. but if you look at what we have achieved for the december report, people said we would not be able to do that, we did. they said he would be a will to deliver it by the period, we did just that. we will be dealing with the commons and lords on the withdrawal bill, and in the european council, will be discussing it with my fellows around that table the withdrawal agreement, and also ensuring that we move on to discuss oui’ ensuring that we move on to discuss our future relationship. ensuring that we move on to discuss ourfuture relationship. these are complex negotiations, but the british people want us to deliver brexit and we are doing that because there is a prize at the end of this, britain and control of its money, its borders and a brighterfuture. maintaining a good relationship with europe, but also been given to those good relationships with the other nations if elected are making the liquid is happened in these negotiations, we have actually done

aid organizations are warning so it was britain that called this meeting the foreign secretary boris johnson had tweeted earlier that yemen is the world's worst humanitarian crisis and that he brought together key international partners to stress the need for humanitarian access and a political solution but what boris johnson didn't mention in that tweet is that the u.k. is practically saudi arabia's best friend on the world stage especially when it comes to the arms trade the british government has licensed over four point six billion pounds worth of weapons to saudi forces since the war started back in twenty fifteen and about sixteen thousand yemeni civilians have died since twenty fifteen when the saudi led coalition first started bombing iranian backed who's the rebels there so campaign is in the u.k. say. this isn't about a u.n. security council meeting what's needed is a change in policy from the u.k. government and there are questions over whether a security council meeting or a number of them can achieve anything while the u.k. continues its policy of arming the saudis. the un gener

god the but meltdown was not a call being a word it was a boris johnson word and then not actually my words but those of the foreign secretary further chaotic wrecks it questions were followed by this after the speaker kicked out the leader of the scottish nationalists in parliament. but it was. the third largest party in parliament the s.n.p. walked out all mass meaning to nationalist parties the s n b n g and fein were no longer represented in parliament but ironically in washington debate dissented not so much on the power of its palm and or its executive this week's us inspector general report has put the spotlight on power being concentrated in the so-called deep states joining me now is someone who is tipped to be donald trump's man in the european union profess a tad man like he is the author of the plot to destroy trump how the deep state fabricated the russian dossier to subvert the president thanks for the governing back on i know you don't talk so much about being detained in the airports over the book maybe aust about julian assange and the ecuadorian embassy do you believ

apart from boris johnson. uldn't get away with it. there you go. staying with the independent. south africa's first black rugby cap ten leaves england feeling blue. —— captain. we are going to leave this tojo captain. we are going to leave this to jo tonight. only because nigel didn't even know a rugby match was going on. i knew that, but not much more. it is a fantastic picture, as the independent often gives us. it isa the independent often gives us. it is a wonderful moment of celebration for south africa, actually. probably not much for the england team, who we re not much for the england team, who were thrashed 42— 39, having been ten points up in the first ten minutes. the real significance is that this is the first like captain of the springboks. —— black. as we heard earlier, in the sports bulletin, years ago he would not even have been allowed to be in the same area as his teammates. now he is out there as the cap ten, siya kolisi. a great day. —— captain. great day for south africa at england's expens

speak to our political correspondent chris mason to get the very latest on the comments made by boris johnsonnd there's even a bit of latin throne in which is a characteristic of borisjohnson in these verbal interjections. all of this recording of a conversation he had at a conservative dinner on wednesday has been leaked, on wednesday has been leaked, on wednesday night, and it was leaked to buzzfeed, the headline, there, describing it as it as em—boris—ing but i'm not sure it is that embarrassing because is embarrassment threshold is several thousand feet north of the summit of mount everest, and secondly, while he and his team say they are disappointed the remarks were late, i can't disappointed the remarks were late, ican‘t imagine disappointed the remarks were late, i can't imagine for a second they are that surprised they were. what did he say? brexit will happen, it is inevitable but he fears it won't be the brexit he would like, in other words, a clean andrew brexit, or hard brexit as some people describe it. he has a pop at the treasury, describing it as being at the heart of remain,

no doubt the donald trump might be a better negotiator than three's a mate because that's what boris johnson said in a private meeting which is an elite i'm sure boris is perfectly happy to sleep on it was smiling yes he was smiling about promises questions but the real problem for britain is not really the internal machinations of the tory party except that those and those in the labor party as well are affecting negotiations with the e.u. and both parties both major parties are kicking the can down the road so far but the road today didn't run out very shortly or we might get exactly what the liberal democrat party one day anyway which is a move a turning of the record really resonate with you because the servants don't want a course at the polls and they say it's a total just. and every single option on the table even the best option is worse than we have at the moment jacoby was definitely joking when he when he said something like to resume should offer to europe as a bargaining because if he was as you probably did would you react he was joking but actually we've got to sort out the in

charge of deciding who is responsible that is all about to change the british foreign secretary boris johnson he went to the hague to the o.p.c. w headquarters gathering of all the members and he called for the o.p.c. w. to be allowed to essentially name and shame perpetrators of chemical weapons attacks to present. the p.c. government to experts who say. well we'll talk happened but. who was responsible. that must be was pretty strong backing the for that proposal eighty two member states voted in favor nine countries that were against they included china russia and syria and so boris johnson's visit to the hague clearly worthwhile it's certainly being hailed as a major victory here by the u.k. by france to help to spearhead the initiative but the o.p.c. w is obviously the name of an organization that's been on many lips recently it's had rather a lot of work on its hands in recent months there was that chemical attack in june and also the poisoning of the former russian spy sergei script and his daughter yulia back in march that took place here on british soil and westminster blamed moscow

boris johnson is too divisive. sajid javid would unite. boris johnson looks like the past.thoughts, we talk so much about the no deal, what would that look like actually for the rest of europe? no deal, what would that look like actually for the rest of europe7m would be catastrophic, in a sense. europe has trade relations with britain, she is a major trading partner. i don't think we could easily see her leaving the fold and threaten the business. more than that, it would threaten the cohesion of the eu, when a major power like britain leaves the club. and for germans it would be terrible, they would be left alone with the french! complaining all the time. they are really not the partner we once. written as a natural partner for germany. she is into free—trade, has democratic institutions which rival and mirror our own. democratic institutions which rival and mirror ourown. —— democratic institutions which rival and mirror our own. —— britain is. we would be terribly upset. angela merkel i imagine would be at the forefront of making it possible for britain to continue to h

is not acceptable what i think it's all about it's the it's a political posturing and you have boris johnson and we need to the. defense secretary posturing really trying to put themselves. at the head of the party in the public limelight and i think really that's what it's about when it comes to the farm sector in the different defense sector it's a political posturing role than anything else. so you're saying while u.k.'s adopting a confrontational stance talking tough and gathering backers against moscow some of its allies like italy adopting a more pragmatic strategy confirmation on one issue cooperation and other like in the middle east for instance is the united kingdom shutting itself out of solutions to global problems by antagonizing the russians to the point of not being able to work with them at all on anything it will on mutually beneficial issues i think it is to a certain extent not something that been saying for quite a while that if you want to have a serious influence on events in places like syria then you need to constructively engage with russia and i think all this sort
