solution to the conflict in syria and one other footnote of here we are keeping an eye on the house of parliament in london where a debate is about to start on the waiting to hear of course the u.s. led strikes on syria a u.k. participated in france as well this will be up for discussion here prime minister to reason why he has to justify to the british parliament and why the u.k. got involved stupid why she didn't come to this house and debate it before the airstrikes and syria she is expected to speak soon we will bring you that. speech and debate when it happens and also speak to our correspondent a little later about that. everything that has happened since the duma attack and the subsequent air strikes is in our latest updates page everything gets aggregated there if you like including some of the latest social media posts that we see that are relevant to it is regularly updated by the online team syria strikes all the latest updates is that al jazeera dot com easiest way to find it is just head to the what's trending menu on the front page. you can get in touch with us as well of course he

he is not going to address houses of parliament. which of the american presidents have done. actually only coming for 24 hours. it is a bit of a lightning tour. but he has already to tell very warm words of how important an ally we are. certainly we do want to stay close allies of the united states. with france having just apparently much closer relationship than maybe previously would have happened, it is important. and to speak out about things. it wasn't as if he accepted everything the president said. he made a speech that was quite critical. exactly that. he went there and listed about five big areas that he was com pletely five big areas that he was completely on a different wavelength to donald trump and try to tell him what not to go down the route that donald trump wants to go down. he took that opportunity to. interesting that he is embracing this bromance what terms. imagine if theresa donated that. she did hold hands with him. wanting to be bothered about that of all, where's your direction is different. she's taking him to task things. you might be an opportunity

alex: on thursday, we will see cto come to the house of parliament and he will answer questions for thisia committee. this is different from the way that things work on capitol hill. where there were two days of questions, but each senator had five minutes to question mark zuckerberg and each member of the house had four minutes. in the house of parliament, there are only 12 members of the select committee, and they have open ended amounts of time, meaning they will be able to ask very pointed questions, and hopefully hold the executive into account if he is invasive and the way that mark zuckerberg was -- evasive in the way that mark zuckerberg was. emily: what is the expectation? is it new legislation. obviously, the ball is already rolling. what could we see from european regulators as a result of this testimony? this is really about establishing what went wrong, and we do not know whether that they were actually going to take action. the select committee, their job is to basically oversee the civil servants, and make sure that they are doing their jobs properly. looking into those de

nations security council the chairman of the international affairs committee of russia at the house of parliament cost ten thousand cars that chuff he sat at the strikes were a violation of international law and probably designed to prevent investigators from the global chemical weapons watching from doing their work yuri is should you mention something a very important that. the russians in syria did not use their air defense systems but should the u.s. conduct any additional strikes how might russia respond.

well it was something that she definitely stressed when she here in the house of parliament gave a statement basically defending and explaining what she did and she did say she stressed that she did speak to other european leaders that she. could to do not too soon also justin trudeau from canada that she had this international backing because she wants to be seen as somebody who doesn't just acts alone but to actually act on the consensus it was a chance for her to come across as somebody who is just so he says she said parliament holds me to a country this but the decision is my decision alone. and the prime minister and i have decided that this was necessary to further humanitarian catastrophe and i think she made a fairly strong statement in parliament today absolutely many strong statements there she talked about the grading and deterring syria's chemical weapons capable. but she had to defend charges that the u.k. wasn't acting on the behest of the u.s. president donald trump what did she say in that regard. well she was as a fairly provocative question you know at what point did you t

nations security council the chairman of the international affairs committee of russia at the house of parliament cost ten thousand cars that chuff he sat at the strikes were a violation of international law and probably designed to prevent investigators from the global chemical weapons watching from doing their work yuri is should you mention something of very important that. the russians in syria did not use their air defense systems but should the u.s. conduct any additional strikes how might russia respond well look in all reactions we have heard to so far and especially in the response of the russian ministry of defense we hear that the americans didn't attack russian targets and i think the hope of course is that there will be no military action from russia and the russian air defense systems located in syria territory have not been used to counter the missile strikes however. the russians have a letter a letter to flee a large military base in the syrian city of community mean i was there myself two years ago and saw that there are not just a few plants there but a whole arsenal of militar

her government has suffered a brexit defeat in the house of lords, the upper house of parliament in westminsterfew minutes' time. but before that, let's talk about mike pompeo. so earlier this month mike pompeo — the head of the cia, soon to be us secretary of state — met with kim jong—un. president trump just been talking about that. hejust he just left hejust left north korea, had a great meeting with kim jong—un and got along with him really well, really great and he's that kind of a quy- really great and he's that kind of a guy. he's very smart but he gets along with people. so i think that mike will be in good shape, we will see what happens. a lot of people are predicting other things but i have a feeling it's going to work properly well. even pompeo's meeting is significant. it's the highest—level contact between the us and north korea since 2000 when the then—secretary of state, madeleine albright travelled to pyongyang for talks with kim jong—il, kim jong—un's father. president trump himself is due to meet north korea's leader later this year. we still don't have any detail on that sum

ago was pretty feeble, i feel very sorry for those very able labour frontbencher ‘s in both houses of parliamentebris in ballast by what has been happening. —— deeply embarrassed. i think it demonstrates thatjeremy corbyn is not to be trusted as a potential leader of this country, there are much better people available, and the labour party is in trouble because of his wea kness party is in trouble because of his weakness in dealing with this matter. just on labour's specific point with regard to jeremy matter. just on labour's specific point with regard tojeremy corbyn and john mcdonnell‘s offices, how much do you say a member of parliament can determine some of the minority unsavoury elements who might end up supporting them? well, political parties have complex and very clear disciplinary procedures. those disciplinary procedures mean that every party has the power to investigate and, if appropriate, expel members of the party if they are behaving inappropriately. the labour party has a great tradition of being an anti—racist party, from the leadership ofjohn smith onwards. if you look at wha

birgit: it was something she definitely stressed here in the house of parliament, she was defending and explaining what she did. she did say she spoke to other european leaders, such as voter angela merkel and justin trudeau from canada. she had this international backing. she wants to be seen as somebody who doesn't just actual but somebody i should ask on a consensus. it was a chance for her to come across as somebody who is decisive. she said parliament closing to account for this but the decision is my decision alone. i am the prime minister and i have decided that this was necessary to prevent further human catastrophe. i think she made a fairly strong statement here at parliament today. sarah: many strong statements. she talked about degrading and deterring syria's chemical weapons capability but she had to defend charges that the u.k. was not acting on the best of the u.s. president, donald trump. what did she say in that regard. ? birgit: that is a fairly provocative question. i will point to donald trump tell you that you needed to do this. she said in very strong words that he

this was the moment the symbol of nigeria's democracy was stolen from the upper house of parliament. took it from the senate. the entrance of that chamber, people we re entrance of that chamber, people were struggling with security. so they went away with it. the senate spokesman said the man ended with a recently suspected senator. —— entered. last week he was temporarily banned from the senate after trying to sue it in court. he was trying to overturn a summons to appear before the ethics committee. that followed comments he had made about nigeria's new election. he was about nigeria's new election. he was a supporter of president buhari, and a nalysts fear that a supporter of president buhari, and analysts fear that seems like these are warning of more trouble to come as nigeria prepares for general and presidential elections next year. in the meantime, the hunt for the missing mace goes on. bill hayton, bbc news. canada's prime minister is in london, where he sat down with the bbc‘s yalda hakim. they talked about airstrikes on syria, dealing with president trump, and more. trade,

the new baby was welcomed into the world the news was relayed almost simultaneously to both house of parliament of hear—hearing. opening of the day in commons, the commons speaker rattled through it. i'm sure that the whole house would want tojoin me in sending their royal highnesses, the duke and duchess of cambridge, our warmest congratulations on the birth of their son. lord fowler was a little bit more ponderous. i'm sure that all sides of the house willjoin me in congratulating their royal highnesses on this most happy of occasions. all: hear, hear! and that happy note brings us to the end of the programme. so, from me, mandy baker, goodbye. well, this week the weather's going to go pretty much back to normal. it's only compared to what we had last week, with that heatwave, and those temperatures in the high 20s for some of us. this week it's going to change a little bit more, from sunny spells to darker clouds. it will remain very fresh. in fact, the indication is that, as we head through the week, the temperatures will keep on dropping. it could turn really chilly by the weekend, and the
