i think boris johnson leadership bid?hink borisjohnson is doing what a lot of us are doing, trying to persuade the prime minister to drop the chequers agreement. at the end of the day, the chequers proposal is not the brexit we promised the british people. it doesn't take control of our borders or our money oi’ control of our borders or our money or laws. it will keep this as a battle state, and we will be a law taker and battle state, and we will be a law takerand a battle state, and we will be a law taker and a captive market for overpriced eu goods going forward and unable to enjoy signing up free trade deals with growing parts of the world economy. that is the main economic benefit of brexit. if the prime minister sticks with her chequers plan, and we think she is, do you think there should be an attempt to oust her as party leader and prime minister? it puts me on this spot because i have publicly stated i have a letter of no confidence on the prime minister. it is not that i have no confidence in the pro minister, i

took a can of petrol and poured oil all over it so it's now been set firmly ablaze boris johnson has been speaking his mind quite freely after resigning as foreign secretary over the terms of the check is deal that's the prime minister's plan for how the u.k. should leave here it was unveiled in july and it had rather a more sort of softball stance a softer brags that was favored by people who wanted to stay in the e.u. rather than the hard line breaks it is who voted to leave who aren't happy with the plan so there he is accusing to reason may of caving in to brussels and a lot of people think he's trying to position himself although he denies it as a potential leadership contend for the party leadership post to reason may but the party has now erupted in civil war over his remarks take a listen to some of the responses from m.p.'s from his own party. to say that the p.m.'s view is like that of a suicide bomber is too much this marks one of the most disgusting moments in modern british politics i'm sorry but this is the political end of boris johnson if it isn't i will make sure it

. hour, theresa may versus boris johnson.t, the tory conference approaching, boris johnson versus theresa may, and mps come back from the long summer holiday tomorrow, and theresa may hoped it would calm everything down and give them a chance to reflect and give them a chance to reflect and we would come back and get checkers through the door and get on with brexit, instead she is walking back into a knife fight. boris johnson taking on theresa may and it will be quite an extraordinary run into conference —— chequers. will be quite an extraordinary run into conference -- chequers. how do you see it? the same way, boris johnson unleash now, i don't think many thought he was particularly... people thought he was very forthright and being in cabinet didn't stop that, now that he is out with the telegraph column he can do what he likes and now it is at this point a bid for the leadership. he has that are few stumbling blocks and now he is hitting his stride in going for theresa may and making himself a nuisance in her eyes and as

supporters of boris johnson have defended him.hink boris says it as he sees it and i think it's how a lot of people see it but very few dare to call it. he speaks truth to power and are not surprised they resent that and there's a backlash. boris johnson's star status in the party has been based on his ability to appeal to voters. the real test will be not how his comments are received in westminster, but beyond. the trade unions have said they will back the campaign for a referendum on the final brexit deal, if the government fails to secure an agreement that protects jobs and the economy. the tuc general secretary, frances o'grady, warned that crashing out of the eu without a deal would be an "absolute disaster" for workers. today, i'm giving the prime minister fair warning. i am serving notice that if her deal doesn't deliver for working people, if it doesn't protectjobs, rights at work and peace in northern ireland, then the tuc will throw our weight behind the call for a vote on the terms of the deal. our politicial correspon

boris johnson is speaking at a rally on tuesday, and what will be interesting to see at that rally isicy of theresa may's that policy, but not theresa may's that policy, but not theresa may's that policy, but not theresa may herself. does he start to say, well actually, if she won't be in the policy, they may need to think about pinning her. if he goes in that direction, you will see this turn into a full— blown symbol right asa turn into a full— blown symbol right as a customer had. he is not the only conservative that will use this asa only conservative that will use this as a beauty pageant. this will be walking down the catwalk by various senior conservatives, some in the cabinet, as well, saying look, i am ready, and the interesting thing about boris johnson in ready, and the interesting thing about borisjohnson in particular is that he is popular with the grassroots, but not so popular with the mps. and when you get to a ballot of party members, it is a big question. more about to come in the coming week. a couple of other front pages to look at. the daily mail has picked up on

those who support the checkers plan the prime minister and therefore many opposed to the idea of boris johnson take a listen to the responses from the concert was obviously the set of rules and regulations that will put boris to say that the p.m.'s view is like that of a suicide bomber is too much this marks one of the most disgusting moments in modern british politics i'm sorry but this is the political end of boris johnson if it isn't now i will make sure it is later i'm still into the nature of the satanic there is no justification for such an outrageous inappropriate and hurtful analogy if we don't stop this extraordinary use of language so brags that a country might never hear you again i see enough. one man who appears to be sort of team boris' is hard drugs it's here steve and he says that there is now a catastrophic split in the conservative party over this issue over how to move ahead and he says that if to raise it may pushes ahead with checkers bragg's it planned there are now up to eighty members of her own party who are willing to scupper the deal to vote against her when it gets

does get to the port that boris johnson there you go.get to the port that borisjohnson almost has to go for it? —— the point. that borisjohnson almost has to go for it? -- the point. i think so, otherwise everything he has put forward , otherwise everything he has put forward, and when he resigned recently, he spent so long thinking about, sophie doesn't at this point, people will feel he has bottled it so people will feel he has bottled it so he has got himself caught in his own momentum and feels he has to keep pushing forward the challenge —— so keep pushing forward the challenge —— so if he doesn't at this point. theresa may is incredibly weak so everything is on his side in many ways. continuing the theme. voters in tory marginal say chequers is bad for britain. exclusive survey, 44 the most marginal tory constituencies, and the voters in those constituencies do not like the chequers deal and two thirds of them are dissatisfied with the way the prime minister is handling brexit and so this goes to the very heart of this electoral ch

so boris johnson is circling theresa may but is nowhere near strong enough position to challenge thate her down at this stage. some of the descriptions he uses in this are quite florid, as we come to expect from borisjohnson. quite florid, as we come to expect from boris johnson. he quite florid, as we come to expect from borisjohnson. he expects that the whole thing is preordained and we won't do well out of it. no one has ever doubted his powers of metaphor, imagery and colourful prose. today he likens the battle to one as preordained as about between giant haystacks and big daddy, which isa giant haystacks and big daddy, which is a reference to wrestling in the 19805. that is a reference to wrestling in the 1980s. that is the point he is making, but it is choreographed and the outcome is known before they go into the ring. i find it quite churchillian language, as well. he we re churchillian language, as well. he were like that. she means the nodding dog from the television. this is the worry. it is attractive, colourful and attention grabbing. and as tony said there is a grown—up

we know that boris johnson inevitable, if you're conservative. in his bbc interview earlier today, but four times he refused to call out whether he will challenge theresa may. we know that brexit will feature very heavily, probably on the margins of the mainstays, probably trying to sanitize the debate in the main hall but i think it will be the only issue, it is a matter of obsession for many tories anyway to exclusion of anything else. and you now have this kind of irritant of a media scale, a kind of bursting boil of borisjohnson scale, a kind of bursting boil of boris johnson who's scale, a kind of bursting boil of borisjohnson who's doing everything he can to stop the prime ministers record to deal. david gauke, not a man known for going over the top, having a real attack on the ideas that boris johnson having a real attack on the ideas that borisjohnson has come up with for this canada style deal. david gauke is not a household name by any means, he is thejustice gauke is not a household name by any means, he is the justice secretary and of

at the party grassroots, big question is whether the mps would ever allow boris johnson big questionllow borisjohnson name to go forward to the party members for a ballot, and to go forward to the party members fora ballot, and i think to go forward to the party members for a ballot, and i think that's in doubt, but not because of his private life i think it's because of his... he was not a good foreign secretary did not impress, and has not really made it i think as an alternative prime minister.|j totally agree, there's arles sorts of hurdles into becoming pm and is a small one. the bigger hurdle for him, is that he was quite a bad foreign secretary, i mean, you really would be quite hard—pressed to find both would spend time talk to find both would spend time talk to people as best talk to people and lots of —— do people think he was actually capable of functioning in that office, in fact even some mps who back them for the leadership would say, perhaps that role did not suit him, but we think he is a sparkle stardust which to get us a majority again. sol sparkle stardust which to

oras boris johnson. the bicycle guy. well known not only did this bicycle guy comment make headlines but also cause the u.k. delegation to chuckle as well as brought a smile to theresa may's face now one of the reasons potentially that the kenyan president would have a bone to pick with boris johnson could be the comments he had made in the past among them saying things such as barack obama being described as according to johnson as part kenyan with an ancestral dislike of the british empire as well as some other offensive comments such as watermelons but when it comes to theresa may of course the reason she would rejoice in a moment like this potentially is some of the issues she has herself with boris johnson not only did he quite recently resigned u.k. foreign secretary because of disagreements over her stance on bracks it but also because of the political rivalry going on between johnson and may of course we have to remember that boris johnson potentially becoming the next conservative party leader has been the talk

this is far from the first time boris johnson has reaction?s is far from the first time borisjohnson has criticised theresa may up roach to the brexit proposals through the chequers plans, but this by far the worst attack, we would expect colourful language from him describing the cheque as a humiliation that would mean the uk looking like a weakling. so far, so boris in a way but the thing that seems to be causing the sort of backlash that you mentioned is that metaphor that he used of a suicide bomber, when he's talking about the government's commitment to avoiding friction at the irish border, i think you mentioned that there, theresa may had wrapped the british constitution in a suicide jacket and given the detonator to michel barnier. that has caused quite some backlash, you mentioned alan duncan saying it was a disgusting moment in british modern politics, tom tugendhat, the chair of the foreign affairs select committee, not a borisjohnson van, he served as allah army officer in afghanistan, he described it as borisjohnson afghanistan, h

brexiteer plot to topple theresa may and make borisjohnson prime plot to topple theresa may and make boris johnsony and make borisjohnson prime minister. this centres around the er g. and they may not much care for boris and his private life but they are determined to unseat mrs may and put boris in the topjob. how to unseat mrs may and put boris in the top job. how exactly they will get the support that they need for such a move is unclear, however i wonder if they are a small group that feels because they all believe this must happen, they all believe boris must be in number ten thus it will happen. but the mechanics of removing a leader are much more complex. they need 48 mps to sign up toa complex. they need 48 mps to sign up to a vote of no—confidence and that isa to a vote of no—confidence and that is a lot. they are saying in this piece they have that, 48 people, it's the first i've heard anyone claim that. they are also saying that boris is social life is not a factor. i don't know if you agree or disagree, but it doesn't... john's past social life and his philander rings and his anti—soci

there is nothing substantive with boris johnson, all big gestures.east in this interview. he says we are in danger of not believing in brexit, the power of the virtues in britain. nonsense. for the brexit, the power of the virtues in britain. nonsense. forthe prime minister, it's basically an ideas free interview she has given. talking about, as i have said, this fa st talking about, as i have said, this fast combination of this festival in five years' time and the other thing we will talk about is stamp duty on foreigners. dredged from the bottom of the barrel of policy ideas. there's nothing substantial to say oi'i there's nothing substantial to say on housing or the state of the country either. neither have come out well. do you think we are doing a disservice to the public, focusing on the fallout and the war in the conservative party rather than brexit itself? what it means and what it involves, what is at stake. we touch on it but most of the focus is on this, because political drama sells papers? absolutely, the human interest of it, this soap

boris johnson talks about saying... it is my view.nterest. but let's remember that not only is the clock ticking but the uk is the first country to leave the eu and this was never properly planned out because there was no concept anywhere in the eu that anybody would ever want to leave. the clock is ticking for us as well so we move on to our third paper. three guesses as to the headline? brexit again. this bombshell poll revealing union backing for the new eu vote. will happen on? no. you said brief! i don't know. it is interesting that unite, unison and the gmb, a poll by yougov, are really 2—1 support for a second referendum. ithink yougov, are really 2—1 support for a second referendum. i think that is very interesting. they're playing politics and if there were a second referendum there would be writes on the streets. when mr cameron dropped this referendum, he told us in that little bit of paper you sent round in may 2016th at this referendum result would be binding. let's move on to the telegraph for a non—brexit story. they ar

some colourful language from boris johnson, but firmly rebuffed by downing street? yes.end, but it is all kicking off at westminster, with downing street delivering a brutal put—down to borisjohnson, saying that now is the time for serious politicians with a serious plan, by implication qualities borisjohnson with a serious plan, by implication qualities boris johnson is conspicuously lacking. and the reason they have, as it were, cuffed him about the head, is because they know mrs may‘s chequers planet hanging bya know mrs may‘s chequers planet hanging by a thread, notjust because boris johnson hanging by a thread, notjust because borisjohnson and the brexiteers are unhappy with it, but even some remainers. the big advantage mrs may has is that she at least has a plan, and her plan is to come back with a deal from least has a plan, and her plan is to come back with a dealfrom brussels. yes, it may mean more compromise, but then to say to britain at westminster that look, it is either my plan or you risk no deal. she will say to the brexiteers, it is either my plan or yo

boris johnson, no about him and he is in the headlines.aying here, the quote here is that borisjohnson will continue throwing rocks at theresa may's checkers plan. today in his telegraph column he is setting out his ambitions for the future —— chequers. he took a pop at hsz future —— chequers. he took a pop at hs2 and it shows very much that he's definitely going to go on his own direction and carve his own path. that's what we're expecting. but it says here he has no plans to launch an immediate leadership bid, which i was a bit surprised at because i felt like the momentum was really coming now, that they would be something immediately after the conservative party conference. but i think what's really clear is he's going to continue sniping at theresa may's chequers deal. throwing rocks at it actually is what the piece here says. it's really difficult for theresa may, boris is such a significant figure and she's worried, you wouldn't be going out to these tory associations if you didn't want to put people on side. i think he could be mor

plot to replace theresa may with boris johnson?portant plot to replace theresa may with borisjohnson? an important thing to note is what we heard from liam fox earlier on today on the andrew marr show. he said the thing about changing the leader is the arithmetic does not change. he means the conservative party does not have the conservative party does not have the numbers in parliament to be able to push through whatever it wants to push through an brexit. it needs consensus from within parliament from across different parties. whoever the leader is they would have to do that. although theresa may is constantly under pressure and talk of plots, at this stage it does not look as though this would happen, certainly before we get to the point where there is or is not a deal. the former labour prime minister gordon brown has weighed into his party's anti—semitism row. he says it should adopt an internationally agreed definition of anti—semitism. tensions within labour over the issue have intensified following the decision by the long—
