this is what prime ministers have to do in hung parliaments. you can manage a hung parliament. and hung parliament and it is surprising how many prime ministers were in hung parliaments for up to five years, and often they got their way. they did it by twisting and turning and reaching out. it is deeply unglamorous. we have in borisjohnson as a figure who likes swashbuckling assertiveness. do or die. then, he doesn't succeed. we're going to have an election. you have to work with a hung parliament, and he behaves as though he has a majority of about 200, loses, and then complains. there are ways of managing this, i think, in this hung parliament, but that is not the route he has taken. your organisation does a lot behind the scenes talking to parliament. do you believe brexit has left a mark on the way politics operates, whoever wins an election campaign? even if you wave ones and all is done tomorrow, you will still have changes and a lot of loose ends that we would need to address very quickly. it has change the balance between parliament and government, and yes some of that

we will do the hung parliament because we need a nswe i’s. hung parliament because we need answers.nt. but parliament, borisjohnson has said, ought to set before the 23rd of september, that was in some of the paperwork. there is something about a historian parliament, when you go back to the president of 1923, a similar timed election in december, the queen's speech wasn't until mid generally —— met january. that will not fit a brexit deal ethics conservatives or labour in power if you were to delay that long. whoever it is, time will be of the essence because that new delhi will take us up to the 31st january. —— new delhi. there are some concerns in some parts of the westminster empire of people who quite like the idea of putting the sa nta costu me quite like the idea of putting the santa costume on that it is not impossible the tory manifesto might say something like we will be out by the end of the year. which means parliament setting during the christmas holidays. it is a bit of i am not saying this with authority. but they manifesto from the tory side, there will be a rapid t

i predict a hung parliament and i think that a hung parliament will therefore be followed by a referendum that 101 percent. will therefore be followed by a referendum because that will be the 2nd way of solving it so that the people's vote campaign move not had too much to cheer over the last offering it so that the people's vote campaign move not had too much to cheer over the last few days that the 1000000 people at the rally recently knew watching their son you'll become the next few days that the 1000000 people at the rally recently knew watching their son you'll become the new pin up boy of people's fort worth bryce that you pin up boy of people's fort worth bryce. lever figures over. at last lever figures over. at last the bricks to a new mill it will now be a christmas election which the site's britons you get the bricks to newman it will now be a christmas election which the site's britain's european future so if the tories when will be right and if liberal win will be n p in future so if the tories win will be right and if liberal when b.n. but things are hardly that straightforw

another hung parliament, another stalemate can't be ruled out.andidate for pm? jeremy corbyn is a seasoned campaigner but so is borisjohnson. it'll be an election unlike any we have seen before. john pienaar there. during the day, the scottish national party, the third biggest party at westminster, said it welcomed the chance to test voters' opinion in scotland. in a moment, we'll have the view from northern ireland and from wales, but first our scotland editor, sarah smith, in edinburgh. how scotland votes in this election could be decisive to the outcome for the whole of the uk. there are 59 westminster seats here, many of them on a knife edge — 46 are considered to be marginals. at the last election, both the tories and labour made significant gains, but many of those mps have tiny majorities, and they won't be feeling very safe. if the election's dominated by brexit, and remember scotland voted clearly to remain in the eu, then the snp hope to benefit from their clear anti—brexit platform, and the lib dems would hope to make some gains on tha

from borisjohnson with another hung parliament.pots with another hung parliament. from borisjohnson pots my point of view, what i think the tories who are very uncertain about the narrative of election they are saying is that he said do ordie, election they are saying is that he said do or die, he said they are the 1st of october, we spent a fortune on preparing for the 31st of 0ctober, both public sector money and of course, private business money. and it is not happening. so if we go that quickly after it has not happened, and we are not waiting until maybe they will draw bill were to perhaps pass through parliament, thenit to perhaps pass through parliament, then it is more difficult for the tories, and an election, which may be based on trust, it may be based on broken promises, we don't quite know where the narrative will be. do you think voters would punish mr johnson for missing that 0ctober you think voters would punish mr johnson for missing that october the sist johnson for missing that october the 31st deadline? it could

and i think that a hung parliament will therefore be followed by a referee parliament and i think that a hung parliament will therefore be followed by a referendum because that will be the 2nd way of solving it so that the people's vote campaign moves not ended because that will be the 2nd way of solving it so that the people's vote campaign move not heard too much to cheer over the last few days that the 1000000 people or the rally recently trimmers to cheer over the last few days the 1000000 people at the rally recently watching their son you become the new pin up boy of people's fort worth watching their son you become the new pin up boy of people's fort worth bryce. all over thank you as a. price. thank you is over. at last the bricks to name it will now be a christmas elec. at last the bricks to a new mall it will now be a christmas election which the site's britain's european future so if the tories when will be right and action which the cites britain's european future so if the tories when will be right and if labor win will be n. but things are hardly that straightforward in r

another hung parliament, another stalemate really can't be ruled out.m, jeremy corbyn is a seasoned campaigner, but so is borisjohnson. it'll be an election unlike any we've seen before. john pienaar there. the pre—christmas vote will be the third general election in five years. and it's the first december poll since 1923. experts think the winter conditions will have little impact on the turnout, but what do voters think about this snap election? our political correspondent alex forsyth has been to worcester — a narrow conservative marginal in the 2017 general election, where the tories won by around 2,500 votes, and which voted to leave in the 2016 referendum. halloween was meant to be brexit day, but with that idea laid to rest, westminster could now turn to the country, asking people to unpick the tangle that politicians can't. at saint peter's garden centre on the edge of worcester, the director is resigned to a possible election to try to break the logjam, but fears it could mean continued uncertainty. i think it's probably necessary so that whoev

of a hung parliament, and no real clear way forward.um going to build? yes, it does, as giles was saying, it does look highly unlikely that we are going to end up coming out of the election with a majority of any out of the election with a majority ofany kind. out of the election with a majority of any kind. even if you know, by some stretch of the imagination, johnson does manage to get a deal, evenif johnson does manage to get a deal, even if there is some sort of deal, oi’ even if there is some sort of deal, or some sort of agreement after an election. it's hard to see how a government elected in these circumstances, basically you have got a 2—party electoral system from of those just make major parties being cut down the middle. on the one hand, labour voting by the dim... by the other places, and the same being set for the tories. it's ha rd to same being set for the tories. it's hard to see how the next parliament isn't going to retain any sort of stability. and will probably end up with another election within a year oi’ with ano

a labour victory, perhaps, or a hung parliament where there was no majority for leave?ould be looking at a further brexit delay, maybe a referendum to put the question back to the people, or if the liberal democrats got their way, revoking article 50 and stopping brexit altogether. there is another way forward, though. what if there's no election this year because parliament won't vote for one? the government initially said it would then put the whole brexit bill on the back burner. but that may not be sustainable. so there could then be a new programme motion, a new timetable for scrutinising that brexit legislation in more detail. it wouldn't be entirely in the government's control. there'd be amendments calling for things like a commitment to negotiate a new customs union with the eu in the future or holding another referendum on the deal before brexit happens. if the bill became law, well, brexit could still happen by january 31st, the end of the new extension period, but it may not be quite the brexit the government had in mind. if the bill didn't pass, if no major

hung parliament.ectly likely we might have another hung parliament. i think it is really dangerous to predict politics now, actually. yes, we should have learned by now. theresa may learnt that lesson, because she was up in the polls when she called a general election. but she fought that trying to make it a brexit election, and it wasn't, because i think people thought the brexit was in the bag at that point. i think this will be the brexit election and the fact thatjeremy corbyn is still sitting on the fence, still basically not taking a position, i think will definitely harm them. because i think it will largely fall along leave— remain lines. we cannot move along leave— remain lines. we cannot m ove o nto along leave— remain lines. we cannot move onto anything until brexit is delivered or resolved in some way. but no matter what happens, we have yea rs of but no matter what happens, we have years of this. susie is right, without doubt there is an election, but we have already heard election pledge

it is so noisy here, you may have to repeat that onem there is a hung parliament will be there is a hungeone else will have to do the turkey this year. i am sure that will be avoided but to take it more seriously, if there was a hung parliament, absolutely, you could seal sorts of manoeuvrings in the 14 days afterwards, whether that would be on christmas day specifically i rather doubt. 0k, next one. that is a clever question. i should say that my producer asked me exactly the question today. i tried to say, i will go and make a cup of tea. i am guessing that politicians will somehow find a way of getting it back more towards spring or autumn. sorry, i wish i could give a better answer. i am sure that is what will happen. here is one more. well, it may be somewhat busy that day. maybe he could send one of his letters. finally, in practical terms, although the house of lords have to sign this off, the election campaign is on from now? absolutely. you get that sense here that there is a big event and politicians are about to do what they do best or worst depending on your view, taking thei

if you look at the polls, we are more likely to get another hung parliament.eneral election, the clue is in the title. general election. it will not solve brexit. anna soubry speaking a little bit earlier. other news now. the family of harry dunn says they will take legal action against the foreign office over the way the government handled the death of their son. the family's spokesman, radd seiger, said mr dunn's parents — tim dunn and charlotte charles — have also referred northamptonshire police to the independent office for police conduct over the investigation into the crash that killed their 19—year—old son. i'm joined now by the family lawyer radd seiger. thank you very much for being with us. thank you very much for being with us. tell us first about this action against the foreign office you are taking. yes, we spent two or three hours today with geoffrey robinson qc, and mark stephens, the family lawyers, and we have been through everything with a fine tooth comb. we are very clear that the foreign office's decision to advise northamptonshire police

the polls the conservative party was just in 6 weeks time she lost it and we ended up with a hung parliament that we've seen over the past couple of years so a lot of things can change in 5 weeks of campaigning in british politics and history can repeat itself. what we have to look at what the paci swan's in terms of this election will be all about that in the conservatives say very clearly that they don't want to deliver on bricks at that they have to deal that with a majority in parliament they want to push through the bricks of potty is there on the conservative side they want to get breaks it down a.s.a.p. as well and then on the remain side that want to remain and the european union and the field is a little more wild let's say we have the labor opposition party then not so clear what they want that maybe a 2nd referendum then we have the liberal democrats who say let's forget about breaks it altogether and just remain in the european union so i think what it boils down to is that voters here in the u.k. don't really have an appetite at the moment for a general election if you look at t

is trending in the polls and there is no guarantee we will end up with anything apart from a hung parliament. let's send now on an uplifting thought. a leap into the final. this is a british long jumper at the world athletics tampion ship. a stunning photograph. she is an extremely beautiful young woman. and compared to the nonsense that is coming out of downing street and whitehall and westminster, this, and i think all the athletes who have been competing in qatar, what a great role model for young girls to aspire to. i think it is absolutely fabulous. how she looks that good after competing, i will never know. i used to do long jump andl never know. i used to do long jump and i never look that good. never know. i used to do long jump and i never look that goodlj never know. i used to do long jump and i never look that good. i am grateful for your time. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you, seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers. and if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch

or back to voters who voted for that hung parliament back then. tely, that is true, but it is the hung parliament we have got at the moment thatis parliament we have got at the moment that is responsible for the reason we haven't left right now. what do you say, claire? at the moment it is just one to the other to the other. it could be down to us as voters who voted to leave. if we had voted to remain, all of this would have gone the other way. even though boris johnson got a majority for his deal in principle last week, you say it is parliament stopping brexit? yes, and it will do because they will find something else. the supreme court will get involved again. it will continue batting back and forth. they being the mps? yes. what do you think about this? the whole of this resides on the person who wrote the question on the ballot paper three and a half years ago. had it been the options of yes, no, no without a deal, all these other things, we would have solved this at least two years ago, and solve the question of what is it that the country ac

where most likely going to end up with a hung parliament again, so we are end up with a hung parliamentristmas election. i think politically, everything is a mess as it has been for the past couple of years and we just want to build stability now and i'm not sure whether an election can give that. brexit if it happens or does not happen, my main point of concern is how we take the country forward. happen, my main point of concern is how we take the country forwardlj was how we take the country forward.” was a how we take the country forward.” wasa remain how we take the country forward.” was a remain but i think boris is doing a good job. i have lost faith in all of them. i think they should just get something and to be honest, i think this might be the first year that i will not vote for any mp5. that is so strong i feel about everything but what is been going on. turning back to the uk politics inafew on. turning back to the uk politics in a few minutes because lots of people have announced that they're going to be standing again, we will see who they are. hello there. we are going to

she was ahead in the polls, very far ahead, and that changed within six weeks and led to this hung parliament we have seen that could not find a majority either way in the brexit saga. we will have to see. six weeks are a time in british politics. brent: we know theresa may did the same thing, called a snap election, was betting on getting a bigger majority, and the result was the opposite. she was weakened until she had to resign. if johnson does not get the majority that he wants, what will happen to him, and what about brexit? reporter: this is the question about this general election. brexit is the dominating topic and so far -- parliament was at a standstill. now we look at the different parties in regard to brexit. the conservatives have this brexit deal on the table that johnson negotiated with the european union. he wants to push that through if he gets a majority. the labour opposition is not clear on how they want to handle brexit. they might call a second referendum if they were to win. the liberal democrats want to forget about brexit altogether and remain in the european union. w

, all about in westminster, the idea ofa hung parliament, and it means justin turdeau might have to doy, calling it a phony investigation. but the pressure on many fronts is mounting and tomorrow bill taylor, america's top official in ukraine, will be called to testify. so what was the president's message to republicans who are now trying to defend the administration on multiple fronts? well, it was to just fight harder and here he was talking about the investigation. i watched a couple of people on television today talking about it. they were talking about what a phony deal it is, what a phony investigation it is, and the republicans have to get tougher and fight. we have some that are great fighters but we have to get tougher and fight because with the democrats trying to hurt the republican party before the election. joining us is the bbc‘s nick bryant. what did you make of that? donald trump basically saying the republicans need to be trevor —— tougher. you wonder what fighting tougher. you wonder what fighting tougher actually looks like. you had senator mitt romney last week, the

i just polls are showing it would be a hung parliament again.get improvements to it. you voted against the timetable and now you're saying i don't want it. three days are something that significant. you don't want it anyway. you won't vote for it.|j think this is the issue because 19 labour mps think this is the issue because 19 labourmps did think this is the issue because 19 labour mps did vote at the second reading, actually, i'm worried that this deal is going to get through off the back of labour votes without the people at some point having a say on it. whilst the referendum would have been purer, the general election would be another way for at least people to have a say.|j election would be another way for at least people to have a say. i got to there because we come to the end of there because we come to the end of the programme and we wanted introduce our audience to the most amazing young man. thank you so much and thank you for being a straight as you can be. now, ben hedger was just eight years old when his mum had a seizure at the

hung parliaments.ountry have become altogether a lot muddier and less conclusive. so it seems to me quite possible that at the end of this election we may well end up back with another hung parliament, and into that a lot will depend what happens to the other main parties, how well, for example, the liberal democrats do, whether they do actually manage to take votes and seats of the other parties because they are pitching themselves, almost it seems to me, as a one issue party at this election, which is as the stock brexit party, which might help them in remain seats. the question is, what happens in leave seats, particularly down in some of their traditional hunting grounds down in the west country and so on. and then of course there is always the question mark about the brexit party. we'll borisjohnson suffer at their hands because he has failed to deliver his do or die pledge, or will vote rs deliver his do or die pledge, or will voters be much more relaxed and see him as a man who has done his best

we certainly could end up with a hung parliament, which leads us in a similar place to where we are now with no majority for any form of brexit. laura: is this election going to test whether the main political divide in britain is not left-right, but leave-remain? amanda:we it will certainly a that question. i think it is going to be difficult for voters. even people that don't like the economic policies of jeremy corbyn. we are going to see from voters whether or not they are more concerned about brexit or whether or not they have tired of this debate and are starting to think longer-term about economic and domestic policies. laura: is it possible thatbr it doesn't happen and we have a second referendum? amanda: this is all dependent on e eu granting a further extension. the eu granted the extension until january 31, the current deadline. donald tusk, outgoing president of the european council, tweeted today at the british people saying wgave you this extension, there is no guarantee th there is going to be another one. i think even if you do have a labour government wanting to renegot

victory put a bet on it in the end and there's every reason why it might be a hung parliament agent to be honest 'd with you that the parties that are really looking forward so let's put it this way the party looking forward to the most are those which have the most direct position so the scottish nationalists the liberal democrats want to cancel bracks it completely they're going up very sort of the whole sort of national spot with every seat it's got frankly and on the other side the brics it's party led by national faraj which wants to know if rex it will hope to make gains because boris johnson hasn't got bricks done in the way that he promised he would inside the 2 main parties the conservatives and labor that there are splits a lot of the conservatives won't say it's all of the conservatives are worried that because johnson hasn't done it's going to lose out to the brits at party equally the labor party there are lots of m.p.'s who worry that jeremy called it isn't very popular and their position on brecht 6 is as clear as mud frankly in some of the what they actually want some p

another hung parliament then what we need to see is whether burris johnson or jeremy corbyn whoever it might be actually has the political skills to govern as a minority other leaders one should do it but so far british politicians sort of you know grow up thinking that if they get to be prime minister they get to come on a majority pliant parliament and maybe they need to do a bit of a reset to how they think about governing. parliament is dissolved automatically 25 working days before a general election that's next wednesday november the 6th the country is heading towards its 3rd election in 5 years a decision that could end the deadlock or deepen the crisis leave barca out 0 westminster boys' chief executive is rejecting calls for his resignation after a 2nd day of questioning from u.s. politicians then a small number good message responsibility for mistakes which caused 2 major crashes but insists he wants to see the crisis through 2 of the companies 737 maxine jets crashed within a 6 month periods killing 346 people politicians accuse boeing of keeping technical issues quiet and p

brick's it to happen at all and if it is as perfectly still perfectly possible there's yet another hung parliament as we have at the moment no majority. will run screaming into the night don't we because it never ends we will lie down in a darkened room i think ok lawrence good to talk to you thanks very much. voters in argentina have elected a new leader president but it's your mccree has conceded defeat to alberta fernandez his deputy is the former president cristina kirchner who is facing a corruption trial both now face the challenge of solving argentina's latest financial crisis and potential bankruptcy to resemble reports now from when his ira's. party went to sightings to celebrate the victory of 5 at the foot of man base and the defeat of precedent. for us simply on says she's proud of the results. here but after this yes yes yes oh yes all my life i've been fighting for social justice in the past 4 years have been torture for me seeing how the economic situation deteriorated because of mccray now i can be proud of being argentinian again. people here are celebrating that canada. that ther

a hung parliament.e votes of young canadians for the first time ever, the under—35s make up the biggest block in this election. and groups like this, get out the vote, are organising on university and college campuses across this country, urging young canadians to understand why their vote matters. in 2015, the election which broughtjustin trudeau to power, there was more... you don't believe in voting? i voted, but i don't believe in it. laughter. everybody has an opinion here. those elections in 2015, more than an 18% increase in young voters, most of the voted for the liberal leader, but they are saying in places like this it doesn't matter who you vote for. just imporant that you do vote. will young canadians come out in large numbers of time to cast a ballot? what have you been seeing? they played a decisive role in 2015 and could make or break the selection. i think the youth what is one ofjustin trudeau pots my greatest challenges in this election because he was so successful in the la st because

none of us know i was going to turn out, could it be another hung parliament of what does that mean ford we have now passed another brexit extension and the eu is getting ready to be asked for yet another one come the 31st of january and not with relish, mad. what are people doing and all the task force, i'm sure they're busy with important work but were they just walking you —— watching you walk around? i rather enjoyed it, people were kissing it, hugging it and signing it. it is an interesting combination. summit was worked for the past two and a half years, going off to a different job, a the past two and a half years, going off to a differentjob, a lot of people of moved on because they thought brexit will be done by now, so thought brexit will be done by now, so the numberof thought brexit will be done by now, so the number of people who have real knowledge and passion for this issue are starting to dwindle and that will be dramatized in a few weeks when the european council such as presidents, his approach may be very different and better in mind, backin very different and better

(applause) some suggest that an election might result in a hung parliament. the snp will never put the tories into power but i have a message for any westminster party that wants smp support. if you don't respect scotland's right to choose, at a time of our own choosing, don't even bother picking up the phone. (applause) year after year, decade after decade, decisions about our future have been made by westminster governments, that scotland has rejected. those decisions have taken their toll on scotland, and they have shattered the case for the union. for some people, that case will have rested on the great nationalized industries of the post war era. those industries were abandoned by a tory government scotland did not vote for. for others it will be the welfare state. a welfare state that's being dismantled by another government we didn't vote for. and for many, it will have been division of an outward looking society and a shared future in europe. but even that is being taken away from us by a government scotland did not vote for. i say enough. enough of a

a number of people are talking this evening about how we could just end up with another hung parliamentboris johnson won a majority and if they did then brexit will happen and before the end of next january. because he will have a more homogenous group of tory mps. he will have gotten rid of some of the rebel mps who wanted to stop him going for no deal or a softer brexit. and if he does not get a majority, although he is ahead in the polls, which is likely because the polls, which is likely because the snp and the lib dems are doing better—than—expected, then we will see labour live dams and snp try to agree on what they can do about brexit. whether they can have another referendum, whether they agree with the eu for another extension for the time they need to do that. this election may take us to brexit, and a hard one under johnson, and it will not be finished. there will still be trade talks with the eu. 0r finished. there will still be trade talks with the eu. or it may perhaps ta ke talks with the eu. or it may perhaps take us to another eu referendum, it could even take the uk sa

to know, and they should because the decisions that are being taken, and as we move towards hung parliaments political parties and political ideology, these people really do need to have a say in their future, and they need to get in the habit of voting. i have come the opposite direction. i used to be incredibly enthusiastic about a 16—year—old vote but i am still madly in favour but now i think there is a risk from it on the basis of, you have got to think about what that means. if they are old enough to govern, are they old enough to have a tattoo, take a bet, drink alcohol, have cigarettes, by knives? you would think they were. the one thing that made me think twice about this is if you make 16 the age of adulthood, how would people feel about juvenile offenders serving their sentences in aduu offenders serving their sentences in adult prisons? good question. let's finish with a front page of the mail on sunday. both of you following the rugby? sadly, no, only from a distance but i could hear the rules and shouts. i was walking through the town, i thought, why are the pubs open at this t

what do we do if we return a hung parliament that once again, just like in 2017, is split exactly downe and we cannot get anything through? speaker: order! those backing a trip to the ballot box won the day. the ayes to the right, 438. the noes to the left, 20. barring something strange happening in the house of lords tomorrow, the election will be on the 12th of december — giving the prime minister his way, giving all of us the chance to say who will come here, which mps, which parties will have the job on unfurling the tangle of the last few years, who will be the prime minister who defines what happens next. a lot of questions there from laura kuenssberg and let's put some of them to caroline wheeler, deputy political editor at the sunday times. i'm pleased to weave got some papers because we had some technical difficulties earlier. let's start with the daily mail... the metro, they are focusing on this idea that... of this christmas poll, as they say, a play on words there. the first time we've had a december election since 1923, almost a century since then. it tends to be in may,

so the range of outcomes in a general election runs from a hung parliament in which the tories are notse the voters punish them for the chaos, right the way through to, and i think this is the more likely, if he can corral all of the pro—brexit vote, which is really in terms of the main brexit vote is around 40% of the uk electorate, people who really care about it. and that is the new tribe in british politics. if he can corral that, he probably wins an election quite big. can he corral that if he has not got it done by the date that he said? that's the thing which changed in the last week and changed at the conservative party conference. the assumption all along has been, and i certainly think this was valid in the summer, that if he didn't get out by the 31st and there was a delay, he was toast, because that was his main strategic insight, when campaigning to be tory leader that he had to get it done. but if he is forced into it and it leads immediately to an election, you could see that members of the cabinet and tory mps who had previously would not have countenanced it, that it i

in the courts, hung parliament...ree years. in ten yea rs we of the past three years. in ten years we will be talking about brexit and how we came to be in the grip of this insanity. they will be courses formulated about that because it is an epic, pivotal time in our history. brexit studies. first class honours. also, we are in the position in these papers were none of them could confidently predict what could even happen tomorrow in the house of commons because it is not quite clear whetherjohnson's vote will be returned, whether it would be delayed, what is going to happen to the withdrawal agreement. but which is this crucial piece of legislation. even john virgo doesn't know what is going to happen tomorrow. he has to think about it. ——john tomorrow. he has to think about it. —— john bercow. tomorrow. he has to think about it. -- john bercow. let's move away from brexit studies. harry and megan like —— harry and meghan won six weeks off. maybe brexit is driving them mad. they are looking for a six—week breakfrom

it was a hung parliament.ooks like they will lose a vote later, calling foran they will lose a vote later, calling for an election. part the numbers there? well, it is without a doubt a challenging vote. you say it's a challenging vote. you say it's a challenging though, is that code for no chance? no, no, not at all, i think there's a good chance we can get this through but it's going to be challenging. so what is happening here? all of the parties will tell you they want a general election. but whisper it, they on their terms, so but whisper it, they on their terms, so conservatives want an election but they want a crack at getting their brexit deal sorted first. the labour party once an election but one day no—deal brexit ruled out first in the scottish national party and the liberal democrats, they want and the liberal democrats, they want an election but they want the government ‘s brexit deal shelved first. let me welcome the fact we have an extension to the 31st of january but i think there's a responsi

i think, it is possible we get another hung parliament, even though the poles look. different.e and you can get strange results where the remain vote gets split and a leave candidate gets voted in or the opposite. all of this is a gamble and it is not where the prime minister wanted to be, he would have wa nted minister wanted to be, he would have wanted to be out of the eu before he went back to the country. that is an interesting point. we forget october 31 was the deadline he said he would rather die in 31 was the deadline he said he would ratherdie in an 31 was the deadline he said he would rather die in an itch than mess and he missed it. nigel farage will certainly use that, the deal he got from russell is not a proper brexit deal for one, but secondly he will make much of the fact that boris johnson has failed to keep his word andl johnson has failed to keep his word and i think that will have an impact and i think that will have an impact and the other parties may also make that point, that you cannot trust this man that he would make a pledge of do ordie this man that

but it looks more likely to be a minority one — a hung parliament.s selection — the votes of young canadians — for the first time ever, the under—35s make up the biggest block in this election. and groups like this, get out the vote, are organising on university and college campuses across this country, urging young canadians to understand why their vote matters. in 2015, the election which brought justin trudeau to power, there was more... you don't believe in voting? i voted, but i don't believe in it. laughter. everybody has an opinion here. those elections in 2015, more than an 18% increase in young voters, most of the voted for the liberal leader, back then, but they are saying in places like this it doesn't matter who you vote for, it's just imporant that you do vote. and every vote counts in this election campaign, the closest race, one of the closest raises that canadians have ever seen no—one is really expecting justin trudeau to get another majority government like you did in 2015, but of course covering elections these days always comes wi

johnson's desperate for an outright win but there are no guarantees if we get another hung parliamentthen what we need to see is whether bars johnson or jeremy corbyn whoever it might be actually has the political skills to govern as a minority other leaders one should do it but so far british politicians sort of you know grow up thinking that if they get to be prime minister they get to come on a majority pliant parliament and maybe they need to do a bit of a reset to how they think about governing. parliament is dissolved automatically 25 working days before a general election that's next wednesday november the 6th the country is heading towards its 3rd election in 5 years a decision that could end the deadlock or deepen the crisis leave barca out 0 westminster points chief executive is rejecting calls for his resignation after a 2nd day of questioning from u.s. politicians then a small number good message responsibility for mistakes which caused 2 major crashes but insists he wants to see the crisis through 2 of the companies 737 maxine jets crashed within a 6 month periods killing

that led to the hung parliament.hile he is taking a big risk doing this, because yes, he is leading the polls, that does not mean where the polls are today will be where the polls are in early december. it will be a big campaigning and so the end caroline: of the year. caroline:i would like to defend my nationality. you guys going on about the weather enormously in new york. interestingly, i am taken by the fact this is once again going to be a proxy referendum. we are going to be once again heading to the polls, giving it to the british voter as to whether they went brexit or not. >> many are saying this is the final proxy referendum on whether or not the u.k. wants to stay within the european union or not. we could see a lot more parties pick up votes about people who other referendum. when they had the parliament session, we sold tens of thousands march outside of the house of commons declaring a people's vote. while boris johnson is leading in the polls, it is fair to say the british public is still andded betwee
