became more than welcome to conflict zone thank you it's two years since the bracks it referendum two years in which the government has failed to come up with an agreed position in the cabinet and what kind of bracks that they want to show themselves and well i think want to be seen is that bracks is undoubtedly extremely complex so this has been made on some things to be fair to both sides but clearly there's a lot left to negotiate and agree in the remaining months ahead i mean they've been negotiating and fighting with themselves to him in talking to brussels much and that's that's the shambolic aspect of it is so just that it's difficult it's just that they can't agree on what they want which is pretty shameful isn't it this is the future of this country in the future of this country's economy hinges on what kind of bracks the u.k. gets well i think you think they'd be more responsible attitude from the prime minister and the government wouldn't you well i think as you just said this is incredibly important these negotiations for the future of the united kingdom particularly of th

to do that well the bracks referendum was just two years ago the negotiations the e.u. as we know started just a year ago after the general election and what i was saying there actually was a say there's no other type within my party or within the wider populace for a change of leadership and i think if you going to compare to reason may's leadership to jeremy corbin's you'll see on the issue of as with many other things on the labor side an even more divided party than we are but i'm not sure the partnership really helps here the point is that actually what people want as i say is the best bricks a deal for the united kingdom and they don't feel they have a chance of getting it particularly the people who murder in this country as you said before the people who employ millions of people who have to put consumer goods in the shops who have to keep the factories working these are the people who have lost faith in your party you knew well i think what they're saying at the moment is there's undoubtedly much frustration with how things are. panning out and in terms of the

that they want to show themselves and what i don't want to be seen is that bracks it is undoubtedly extremely complex certainly but bench members of parliament like me would like to see more clarity on the future trading relationship between the u.k. and the e.u. progress has been made on some things to be fair to both sides but clearly there's a lot left to negotiate and agree in the remaining months ahead i mean they've been negotiating and fighting with themselves they had been talking to brussels much and that's that's the shambolic aspect of it is so just that it's difficult it's just that they can't agree on what they want which is pretty shameful isn't it this is the future of this country in the future of this country's economy hinges on what kind of bracks the u.k. gets what they think they're more responsible attitude from the prime minister and the government wouldn't you well i think as you just said this is incredibly important these negotiations for the future of the united kingdom and particularly of the for the shape of economy to have been things have been agreed wi

entirely and other members who want to so-called soft bracks it's staying closer to the e.u. but one such hard line a says it's not yet time for this prime minister to quit this is about policy and not about the individual but the policy needs to get back to what it was before the status quo and after mr davis' departure the prime minister quickly promoted a junior minister dominic rod to replace him whether she will last long enough to appoint a replacement for boris johnson is uncertain paul brennan al-jazeera. let's now speak to jonah hill who's outside the british parliament and so jonah she does seem to be a mounting sense of crisis around the government of tourism a does it look like she will survive these latest departures. well to the extent that any of these things are certain which isn't much it does seem to be less of a sense of crisis perhaps receding than there was at the beginning of the day theresa may seems to have survived a meeting of. m p's the rank and file of her party of the so-called one hundred twenty two committee where if there was going to be a lead

but says her plan will go ahead bracks it continues to mean bracks is i presume a defender of the business friendly exit just days after it was now only approved by parliament the british leader will now meet with politicians from her own party to rally support before the summer break now the former foreign secretary virus johnson is now addressing parliament after he quit his role over the bracks it fall out for more on this let's join our correspondent paul brennan in london lots of moving parts really paul i mean the government only now really won this vote on bracks amendments of late last night and the pm is really not out of the woods at all. no busy couple well a busy week frankly boris johnson the former foreign secretary the former foreign minister if you like just sat down and exited the house of commons he didn't hang around to hear some criticism that was coming from the opposition benches in his direction after giving his resignation statement and to be honest he was quite restrained i would say he's a man don't forget to rather enjoy the limelight and has a florida turn of ph

first late on sunday david davis the man tasked with actually negotiating bracks it with the e.u.chose to resign rather than present a strategy he did not agree with in his resignation letter he wrote the general direction of policy will leave us in at best a week negotiating position and possibly an inescapable one to resubmit a replied i do not agree with your characterization of the policy we agreed on at cabinet on friday i'm sorry that you have chosen to leave the government when we have already made so much progress the internal divisions of the conservative party were one of the reasons the previous prime minister david cameron called the two thousand and sixteen british referendum and the narrow victory for the leave campaign has done nothing to resolve the political gulf between the hardliners who reject the e.u. entirely and. other members who want to so-called soft bricks it's staying closer to the e.u. but one such hard line a says it's not yet time for this prime minister to quit this is about policy and not about the individual in charge but the policy needs to get b

hot the most advantage but the people who voted for bracks that are trouble tended to have some level of economic advantage they weren't the poorest what really is behind it is geographic inequality the people who voted for mrs clinton tended to live in the largest the most diverse the most innovative metropolitan areas i forget the number but it's not a lot of the people who voted for donald trump similarly with rex it came from smaller metropolitan areas suburban areas in rural areas so i think it is where people live. and it reflects the shift in both economic opportunity and in values and look it's leading to the seesawing in politics you know one one time you get a more liberal one time you get a more conservative one time you get an opening when the next time you get a breath now i know that you were traumatized by both bracks events that there may be a lection of donald trump but. what you're saying here is essentially that we leave in day in age when it is easier for people to change a country or to change in location where they live rather than to change things within the app

why prime minister to resign may's bracks it strategy is lead to two major resignations which threateno tear the ruling conservative party apart first to go was david davis who as bracks it secretary was leading negotiations with the e.u. he quit in protest at the plan for brics it which may agreed with a cap and it on friday hours later foreign secretary bars johnson and alst he was resigning as well saying the government self-doubt was killing the brakes it dream is being replaced by health minister jeremy hunt a prime minister's strategy is to match the regulations on goods and strike a new deal to establish a free trade area with zero tariffs bought hardline m.p.'s like davis and johnson as saying that this plan prevents the u.k. from following its own laws that it will still need to bow to the rules john hull now reports. british government unity barely made it through the weekend by monday afternoon two senior ministers had resigned in protest of prime minister to resign may's new business friendly breaks it strategy pointing to closer ties with the e.u. some called it a sellout

he make really quite new to rob comes from the same kind of type he's a pretty pretty sort it on bracks he's a bit younger he's seen as a sort of like bridge back to a younger generation of bracks it is however if he's going into this job it is because he signed up to the plan david davis has resigned and secondly he is also accepting the premise that rex it is now being run from downing street it is now being run by the prime minister and eight rather than by the bracks department in that context one imagines that assuming to resume can hold assuming there aren't moment still resignations to come assuming the government survives in that context sure the raw being put in opposition really adds up to about much right and down thank you very much indeed. lots more to come on this al-jazeera news hour including mystery surrounds how a british citizen died after coming into contact with a dangerous they have agent. the u.n. appeal for access to syria's there are provinces humanitarian conditions get worse . and installed roger federer continues his best friend nine wimbledon title on a busy

definitely quite chaotic times here in britain first of all we do of course have bracks it looming with really just months to go before it becomes a reality and here we are in a situation where teresa mayes cabinet certainly seems to be in a state of disarray not only do we have two of the top ministers connected to bracks it coming and going three ministers in total really gone almost in a blink of an eye and a total of seven cabinet ministers that have departed in a span of a year and of course it's seems quite clear that if it's one more head up it looks very likely that a vote of no confidence will be showing theresa may the door and while all of this is unraveling at home the situation with talks with the rest of the european union about what's going to happen also seems to be leaving much to be desired politicians come and go for the problems they have created for the people who remain and the ghost bridge it is the biggest problem in the history of. u.k. relations. and it's still the far from being solved with or without mr davies. and unfortunately it hasn't left a good stick wi

to go out and campaign because they are so upset with this what they perceive as betrayal of the bracks votes but ultimately it comes down to m.p.'s have got to be the ones who trigger the vote of no confidence in the prime minister and for them the great risk in doing that is that any new leader would be under immense pressure to call a general election and in doing that they risk jeremy corbin winning it's very feasible that he could win with the tory party in such chaos and obviously notorious he wants to be the one responsible for bringing jeremy corbin into number ten but jonathan lists what about the much touted briggs it dividend the financial windfall that the country would receive as a result of the longer having to pay into the e.u. there are those that argue that simply wouldn't be one whatever the form of briggs at the u.k. eventually settles for but let's just suppose for a moment that the brics it is a right that there would have been some kind of a dividend this checkers deal would surely watered down any form of dividend if there was to be one wouldn't it. absolutely i m

until we get the final breath and we see what the reality of bracks is and how that matches up to what was promised people still don't know what they voted for post about the. we want to stop or accept there are a lot of people that just don't. think we've got to make them care so i might go try grabs. their account the new e.u. supporters that opponents but it's a narrow lead slight change but not a big one because people haven't really been thinking about this but i think you know as we get closer. when we get here through the summer i get tell you about people will be thinking about and seeing the risks yes of even us the country's divided but. most of the pro breaks it has are of the older generation. which we could survive without the you. being a very expensive project at the failed was about to you think a second referendum is not really what we know you hate here it's like a football result you didn't like the result will turn the thing the people have made their vote not sure they should stick to it. but a super girl doesn't give up so easily her message is well received by yo

a prime minister who just is removed from the political reality that the british people voted for bracks that they want a lot of big us and she doesn't want to deliver that and therefore the choices that she can try and force which through and feel or she can just go which would be infinitely preferable. now as you're saying there boris johnson was a park city or he was one of the main people in her government pushing for this to happen so what does his resignation mean for the bracks that negotiations the process at this point. yeah i think it causes the whole process to be thrown up into the air i mean that david davis obviously the reason is greg said secretary doesn't feel that he can implement the to reason is rex a vision so there you've got a problem. they ousted chaos or all this chaos is being driven by the fundamental fire the true reason may is a reminder there for everything she does is reflected is a reflection on her fundamental desire to want to stay as close as possible to the e.u. david dave. wanted boris johnson wanted out seven point four million people want to do it s

donald trump when you actually don't know what he stands for why don't you just have a much softer bracks it and deal with us instead because at least we're consistent and so it places to reason may under the most enormous amount now of political pressure from all sides. now let's introduce our panel in london where are joined by in don t. is the ad itself politics coach k. and author of brad's it what the hell happens now in washington d.c. we are joined by robert hunter he's a foreign policy and the former u.s. ambassador to nato and also in london we are joined by parma a professor in international politics at city university london an expert on american relations welcome to you all in i would like to start by asking you this do you think that this is purely a classic trump throwing remarks here and there or there's more to his scathing remarks no he pretty much just says the words that happened to be rising out of his mouth at any given moment he's not i don't really sign up to this idea that some parts of sort of the british political class sort of think he's some kind of strategic g

it's true years since the bracks referendum in britain and my guess this week here in london is making morgan a former education minister and now a pro remain conservative and seem why does he continue to trump up the prime minister who has failed so spectacularly to unite the party and come to conflict so close. to. the style of. your still looks. to some to live in concert. and standing architecture. in style essential. to your home in sixty minutes p.w. . going up today don't miss our highlights. program online w dot com highlights. this week on conflict zone i'm in berlin to talk to the. foreign minister of bulgaria his being among the politicians so it's going for a comment you approach on the question of large scale migration now that a compromise has been found is it a fair deal for everybody and will the agreement last.

i think that's why bracks that happened now i don't know what's going on with the negotiation who knows but and i guess that's become a very interesting point of contention i said i'm going to a few hot spots we have nato that we have the u.k. and then we have putin. and i said putin may be the easiest of the mall you never know but i'm going to a pretty hot spot right now right with the lot of reza lot of resignations but i will say that immigrations a very important thing and. i told them today the e.u. the european union better be very careful because immigration is taking over europe and they better be very very careful and i said that loud and clear yes. president trump. what will you tell president putin about this summit and the. what i think he's going to see about this but this is turn out to be a very successful summit this is i think i think really that nato is more put together right now is more coordinated and i think there's a better spirit for nato right now than perhaps they've ever had. it's richer than it ever was the commitments are made at a higher level than they've

after talks with two reason may and heat back whatever bracks it strategy or government wants to pursue. whatever you do is ok with me that's your decision whatever you're going to do is ok with us just make sure we can trade together that's all that matters. and with that the president completely backtracked on comments published just hours earlier and a u.k. tabloid in an explosive interview trump trashed the prime minister's bret's that plan. i would have done it much differently i actually told to resubmit how to do it but you didn't agree with she didn't listen to me now but it will definitely affect trade with the united states unfortunate negative way. despite criticizing his host the president was later welcome to windsor castle. in a minor breach of protocol trump walked ahead of the queen but he got the pomp and pageantry he wanted it. the president's trip has been choreographed so that he largely avoided coming face to face with more than one hundred thousand demonstrators in london. before he had come to britain donald trump it said he thought the british people really liked

the last couple of days talking about how the british army could be involved if there is a no deal brack there. in terms of helping provide supplies such as few food and medicine and certainly this is something that would usually be associated with an emergency and of course the reaction. has been very swift to these reports some saying they're shocked and others refusing to be manipulated with what they call scare tactics god help us this is not coming from remain as this is not project fear pro bricks of ministers a drawing a blueprint for the army to deliver food fuel and medicine if we leave you with no deal we have a duty to prevent the self-immolation the plan of scaring the crap out of people with no deal horror stories in order to make a free trade agreement which will tank the economy look like a good deal is beginning to work well in reaction to all of this we have seen british prime minister theresa made was always said no deal is better than a bad deal basically try to calm down the public when it comes to all of this often being worried about preparations that we're making i

market reaction has however remained muted british firms welcomed the industry friendly plans for bracks said may that's prime minister threesome i had outlined of last week's check is meeting the prospect of a softer exit with the u.k. maintaining close trading ties with the e.u. seem to meet the demands for more clarity from business among them have been about whether those plans seeking to inflict minimal economic down the damage can stay on the table has now become an open question. donald trump wants europe to buy more american made cars and that's why he wants ten percent tariff for importing passenger vehicles into the european union to be scrapped the thing is dropping the patches price alone is probably not enough to get europeans buying there are a whole lot of hidden hurdles before you can get yourself in the driving seat of an american car. these cars have just arrived from the us but before they can clear customs and bring them there brake fluid needs to be removed it's considered toxic waste in the e.u. taking the liquid out costs two hundred euros per car and it's not the

hammer is angry that i will let it not have a say over bracks said since residents could not vote to break that affect us he and some fifteen thousand other islanders will lose their passports should london come up short and it's going to secure a good breaks it deals with us residents worry that they will be among the biggest losers and will and should have had an a chance to participate in the backseat and that no other people should this site and one state but then britain has been. increasing home micro-managing which i think is it fair to us. that mean we have no say because if you take the economy i'm going to take the budget angle it has to be approved by england so we are just puppets in the end the whole thing yet another ways britain. is less involved since hurricane devastated last september many homes still in ruins the state's coffers are empty and the planned reconstruction is funded by the e.u. it is also agreed last largest provider of development aid with much of the month earmarked for education but after breaks it is unclear whether london will step in to help. but

although the party is very divided in the cabinet is a very divided she needs is somebody from the bracks it's from the hot rocks at the front to support her and she's trying to find somebody in the now former top u.k. diplomat boris johnson he just released a statement and he used some very emotive language you want to just show you an excerpt from his letter he wrote that it was with sadness that he stepped down from his role as foreign minister johnson said that may's softer negotiating position meant the brakes it dream is die and referring to the plan to remain closely aligned to certain e.u. laws johnson wrote that the u.k. was quote headed for the status of being a colony i mean i guess the most crucial question now for theresa may is does she enjoy enough support to push through her brakes at plan. the so if the support is dwindling she does not have a common position of her own cabinet so there is actually no position she can get negotiate on the attendant checkers on the. last week and that failed because both johnson and also david davis declared that checkers is more or less d
