is that many of these speeches were delivered in the house of commons, and we're never broadcast. the reason for that was that at the start of churchill's premiership. it was suggested that microphones be brought into the house of commons so that these speeches could be recorded and then later played on the bbc that evening but traditionalists would have nothing of it and so in some cases these speeches were never heard by the broader public that was true for instance of churchill's tribute to the royal air force when he said never has so much been owed by so many to so few. what you sometimes did get were broadcasters read long portions of these speeches during new newscasts that evening, but none of them ever pretended to be churchill and self churchill also when he did deliver these speeches on radio found that he was delivering the speeches twice once in the commons and then later that evening on the bbc. this helps explain also why some people reported that he seemed tired in these speeches and a few others wondered if he might have even been drunk, but that wasn't true either

i'm going to make this session in the house of commons passed even louder than usual elevated then us. and expressions accompanied the prime minister's speech on any topic. because of the pinscher scandal, key figures in the british political elite began to announce their resignation, according to the guardian, their posts. the minister of health, the minister for children and families and the minister of finance left. it looks like it's only top of the list the country deserves better. and i have to go back to the bench myself to serve the people of salisbury and south willshere, the european media has already punished it myself. the british prime minister and began to count the days until his resignation, a whole company in the german spiegel turned against johnson in expressions, they do not hesitate to call johnson the fat piglet and write that his entire career is hanging in the balance. in the same opinion, shared by the british de times, the prime minister has lost the confidence of his country's party. he must leave immediately, and perhaps the pressure on johnson is reported

the house of borisjohnson was unfit for office. the house of commons was unfit for office. the house of commons would vote to remove borisjohnson immediately so we would have a caretaker prime minister who did command the confidence of the house until a new leader of the conservative party is elected. that is the way we believe this should proceed, but the tories are running scared of the fact that the man they are still propping up in office, despite everything we have seen going on these past few weeks, despite the lies and the lawbreaking and mockery of the sacrifices of the british people they covered up for three years, they covered up for three years, they are continuing that behaviour even now, even at this late stage. once again, breaching constitutional conventions that are the foundations of our democracy. the conventions that are the foundations of our democracy.— of our democracy. the government sa s ou of our democracy. the government says you are _ of our democracy. the government says you are playing _ of our democracy. the government sa

nearness of the war of ukraine makes it a different moment, as sir lindsay hoyle talks in the house of commons right now. jonathan: we can hand it over to the house of commons right now with questions. prime minister: to make impacts lower and the tax burden easier. these changes will benefit 30 million people across the u.k., and i'm pleased to say that two of those people are seated in the public gallery today, mandy, a typical worker, will now save the hundred 30 pounds per year -- save 330 pounds per year, real money for real people. mr. speaker, i'm sure the house will also join me in wishing the best of luck to england and northern ireland, computing in the cup of 2022, starting today. i'm sure they will both make the nation proud. in addition to my duty, i expect there to be leader meetings of this event -- later meetings of the seven. >> last week, we launched a new approach to combating crime, which has the increased use of stop and search, and tougher sentencing, and more work. would the prime minister agree with me that if you carry a knife, you should expect to end up behind bars?

his resignation statement in the house of commons earlier on. sage, we think, that the level of support for the prime minister as leader of the party and prime minister has a really kind of evaporated in the last 211 hours or so. other that would be enough to convince a prime minister that he needs to step down of his own accord remains to be seen, because the evidence to give the parliamentary committee earlier, the parliamentary committee earlier, the liaison committee, it was pretty forthright, and he seemed to be simply saying, no matter what is going on outside of the committee room, and prime minister, i have a majority of 80, i secured a very big man it has been called a personal mandate but some of his supporters, and that is something that simply trumps any disquiet that his own mps have, the fact that he has the people's vote, as he calls it. so, these are the dynamics of the debate as we speak, in westminster, as you can imagine, is a problem with all kinds of rumour and turbulence, and questions about whether boris johnson can even ma

you have to accept that the house of commons, it is representative of the whole of the community, so two rotten apples do stand out and that is the difficulty. the question we have here is how quickly do the conservative party face up to the that was very clear. in today's modern media world things happen extremely quickly but, nonetheless, there was time to put in place actions that would have recognised the seriousness of the event and allow the prime minister to stand rather better than he does at the moment, for the whips office to investigate, that would have bought them time. trying to draw a line under it and saying that he would resign is clearly not accurate. number ten saying the prime minister was not aware of any "specific allegations", the wording that is being used, but it seems rumours had been circulating for some time, so when the prime minister says that it has acted swiftly you are saying that he could have acted faster than he did. he that he could have acted faster than he did. . ., ., that he could have acted faster than he did. ., , , he did. he could have, bec

and in 1901, he made his maiden speech in the house of commons. before sitting down he thanked the house and noted the memory of his father. and indeed several members who had been in the commons with randolph churchill noted how much the sun reflected the father in his delivery. if not in his looks as you can see from this contemporary illustration. although churchill came from a family of conservatives. just three years after entering parliament. he broke with the party over the tory embrace of tariffs that is taxes on imports to protect british industries. churchill was an ardent free trader. we also was being focus on the need for social reform, especially to alleviate the deplorable conditions in britain's industrial cities. in 1904. he dramatically crossed the floor of the house of commons and joined the liberal party. he would be a liberal for the next 20 years before he managed to then rejoin the conservative party. churchill once said anyone can rat that is joined jump from one political party to another but he added it takes a certain amo

so i will start with tom. ., ~ house of commons so i will start with tom-— house of commons sovery much. you don't need me to tell you that - don't need me to tell you that housing is a huge problem in the south—east but is a huge problem across the uk and this is one of those areas where we need to look at what a conservative solution is. we know what a labour solution would do. it would concrete over the whole country and leave us with socialist homes that are owned by the state and we can rent on a temporary basis. that is not what we want. what we want is people around the country who are able to build homes and families within them, to grow families and grow hope and lives. we can do that. but it means investing roughly around the whole country and means a new deal for britain and a clean start and it means restoring trust because actually all of this is to do with the confidence we have in our own communities, the confidence we have in our own people and i believe in britain and i'm sure we all do but i will give britain the hope it can regrow because a ten year plan for

they, if there's a business of being challenged by cure stormer out the dispatch box in the house of commons week after week, less trust seems to me to be someone who's likely to come on stock quite badly. now whether that matters, it's hard to know completely because clearly a lot of tory supporters will stick with her because of her politics and her channeling of margaret thatcher, which seems to be her main claim to fame. but i think that's going to be a big problem if she goes ahead for, she's still not goes ahead. well, there's cares dharma, another professional, former director of public prosecutions and a lawyer. there's 2 slightly standoffish characters who neither of whom have thought old fashioned binds that boris brought to proceedings. so it's, it's all there for the, for the competition. so those 2 go ahead. while i want to talk very briefly about sacha, because she's do not says he plans to put into place that to write economic policies . and that is where the battle ground seems to lie. but margaret thatcher is also, as you suggested there, an icon phil is trust, even i believ

he is someone who is well—liked in the house of commons. nst him in leadership and i basically have no bad thing to say about him, he is gracious and i think he is an impressive person. he is a real grown—up. he is somet who works, as you say, for 15 years at a very senior level before he came into government, so what it means now is the departure of these people, and sajid javid is a strong case for this, leave behind pre—rickety group, and the sense is that one of the reasons boris johnson appointed chris pincher is he is struggling to find people who are loyal to him, who don't have personalities, the most straightforward members of parliament, he has got rid of completely or their stay on the —— they are staying on the back benches. ., , they are staying on the back benches-— they are staying on the back benches. ., , ,, ., ., ~ , ., they are staying on the back benches. ., , ,, ., ., ~ ., benches. rory stewart, thank you for “oininu us benches. rory stewart, thank you for joining us on — benches. rory stewart, thank you for joining us o

and so, the house of commons which says that it's not acceptable for boris johnson to remain the prime minister has i out that the prime minister has indicated an intention to stand down as prime minister if, and i appreciate that this is unlikely but the process to replace and played out but during the summer, he decided that it of a case for staying. is there any means that he can do that is the statement today the end of the matter? i can do that is the statement today the end of the matter?— the end of the matter? i think it's fairly likely _ the end of the matter? i think it's fairly likely at _ the end of the matter? i think it's fairly likely at the _ the end of the matter? i think it's fairly likely at the end _ the end of the matter? i think it's fairly likely at the end of- the end of the matter? i think it's fairly likely at the end of the - fairly likely at the end of the matter. there is no under the conservative parties leadership rules that are going to stand in contest if you was simply to reject the outcome of that contest and refused to resign. i think at th

houses of parliament, from that committee meeting. i suspect he is in the prime minister's suite of rooms behind the speaker's chair in the house of commonsf high peak in derbyshire swung to the conservatives from labour at the last election. our correspondentjudith moritz has been talking to people there. 200 miles from westminster, whaley bridge feels far removed. but the prime minister's reputation matters here. there's been lots of support for him, but it is being severely tested. at the end ofjohnson street sits the builders merchants, where they say they put a price on honesty. and where views are changing. i felt sorry for him in a way, because he's had a lot of pressure what with covid and then coming into the ukraine war, which he's trying to sort that out. then there's all the partygate, which i'm not sure about. but there's just too many lies coming out of his mouth. and after the two head ministers resigned yesterday, i thought it is time now. if they haven't got confidence in boris, then he does need to go. people here know how it feels when things are precarious. the pm visited them in 2019 when the town was evacuated becaus

we've seen his speech in the house of commons, which for all intents and purposes, sounded like a leadership period where she soon act talented. as a potential leader for a long time now he is now outside of cabinet, able to speak freely on the matter. so we are seeing alternative candidates emerge and i think that previously been biased. johnson, the saving grace. there was a coalition around a coalition around one particular candidate, it starts to emerge. if the rules then do change in the 1922 committee, i think the writing is on the whole, the prime minister. but there is a lot of procedural background is going to go into that before we get anywhere near those discussions. the school liaison committee, public aiden committee is going to be a very different arena. devoris johnson. he's going to face direct scrutiny and he has no wiggle room. he has no place to hide. there will be him faced by those m p challenging whether or not he misled parliament. and there is a very long standing convention in westminster. that is a, a prime minister already minister is found to misled parliament and

anywhere. >> next, british deputy prime minister dominic taking questions from embers of the house of commons while prime mr. boris johnson was attending the nato summit in madrid. topics include the cost of living, taxes, abortion access, any potential for another referendum on scotland's independence from the united kingdom. this is just over 35 minutes. minute. -- minutes.

another confidence vote in the house of commons apparently isn't possible at this point given current parliamentary rules. what is conservative policy. ready rules say you can't have a confidence vote 12 within 12 months of the last one. but the really important thing about those rules is, is that they're not, they're not fixed. and they can change and nobody really knows quite where they're written down. and the way that they got really, teresa may was by saying to if you don't go, we will change the rules and us and she said are right, the game is up. i think that wouldn't work partial. so i think they would actually has changed rules, but there is an election next week to the committee that controls the rules. and so, next week selections committee, which is this is a little bit sorry, this is a bit weird and detailed if nothing has happened before, then that will definitely be a moment then. okay, but you say there, there is a precedent even without changing those rules with theresa may are there any potential i had longer? ok, are there any potential successors for prime minister

the business of the house statement will be made shortly and members can ask questions of the leader of the house of commonsng a list of the cabinet as it currently stands, given that there have been a quite a few prominent moves that there including the sacking of michael gove last night. if you'rejustjoining us on bbc news, it's 11:30am and we are expecting borisjohnson to announce initialled well that he is resigning as the leader of the conservative party and then in due course as prime minister, though the debate is raging around the extent to which the prime minister can stay on until the prime minister can stay on until the autumn and the party conference season when they might be a handover. that debate is still raging today. i suspect that the leader of the liberal democrats has some rather strong views on that and he joins us now from the green outside parliament. good morning. what are your thoughts? the liberal democrats want _ what are your thoughts? the liberal democrats want to _ what are your thoughts? the liberal democrats want to prior _ what are your thoughts? the liberal democrats want t

of the things we should focus on is not so much what they are same but the visuals inside the house of commonsallies the dean dories. look behind cover seats behind, not completely empty but very sparsely attended. some of the people who are sending a letter sending no confidence of boris johnson simply out there. what also is going on is that people are voting on who successors should be. conservative mps are going to the corridors now going to the ballot box in voting between the five remaining candidates seeking to replace them. some are focused on that. also having postings with the candidate earlier. a strange debate. borisjohnson is wanting one of his many curtain calls to justify his record to make it very clear that this is a government that wasn't defeated at the ballot box he said 14 million people had voted for his party with him as leader anyone to run through some of its successes. you'll know them by now, the vaccine rollovers he also conceded that he might be more popular now in kyiv then kensington, he said. and claim that's because of the foresight of his government... find tha

he was what he told the house of commons earlier during the weekly pmqs. >> the job of a prime minister in difficult circumstances is to keep going. guy: johnson is now facing a grilling from the liaison committee. let's go to downing street now. bloomberg's joe mayes joins us from there. joe, let's handicap force johnson is odds of making into the end of the day, and the end of the week. joe: in terms of making it through the end of the day, it is 50-50, perhaps are likely than not he is not prime minister by the end of the day. 1922 committee is meeting later, and they might decide to change the rules to allow another vote in johnson's premiership. it is likely he would lose that vote. he got 31 resignations over the last 24 hours from positions in his government or party. the authority has completely been stripped away from him at this point. he could say, i'm not going to face that vote. if he doesn't do that, maybe it is a vote next week, the writing is on the wall here. kriti: a vote perhaps next week, but i'm curious about the potential successors. who in a scenario of a no-confi

there was a speech in the house of commons -- we have had many stuns moments this week there. a speech in the house of commons by a member of the government reassuring the british people the government was actually working. boris johnson -- listen, people will try to get their arms around who he was, who he is. i will say this, three years in downing street doesn't really sum it up. he has been incredibly influential from brexit to leading the support for ukraine over the war with russia. he really has been not just impactful on the uk but globally. >> what's really interesting is usually when you resign you submit a letter and you see the queen, her majestymajesty. he thinks he is going to stay until the fall when the party chooses a successor. is that really going to happen? will he have that choice? >> reporter: exactly. there's debate about that. there's going to be month drama and more of chaos in the heart of the british government, because it's not a done deal that boris johnson gets to stay here until the fall when he will officially resign. he will go and see the queen

following her announcement, she responded to questions from the british house of commons. >> >> on the6th of november, i have no plans to visit the honorable members constituency in the immediate future. >> you will understand that members will have empathy with the prime minister because we know what betrayal means. >> you will discover amongst the majority of my constituents sympathy for her views on europe for having suffered -- >> i will hope to visit the province many times in the future and a slightly different capacity. with regard to our policy on europe, i believe it is one that appeals to most people in this country and i believe it is right. >> mr. speaker, this morning i chair the meeting of the cabinet , i had an audience with her majesty the queen, later this afternoon i shall lead to the government against the motion put down in the lead of the opposition.
