So the eyes have it the eyes have a. British and bays approve a bill to delay bright sets and stop the country crashing out of the new on october 31st and theyve also rejected Prime MinisterBoris Johnsons motion for an early election.

Cries for help from the bahamas where whole areas have been decimated by Hurricane Dorian. And south African Companies are targeted in nigeria in retaliation for attacks on like jiri and in johannesburg. On his pain and all the unprecedented day in the British Parliament m. P. s have rejected Prime MinisterBoris Johnsons call for an early general election he put forward the motion off the politicians approved a bill to delay breaks it and block a no deal exit from the e. U. On october 31st well in a moment well cross in jonah how hes been following the days developments for us from outside parliament 1st Andrew Symonds reports on the days events. Another defeat for Boris Johnson but with a rebellion in his party and the opposition taking over the parliamentary timetable i used the right 327 notice the lack of 299. Within minutes Boris Johnson was on his feet with his plan for a snap elections i dont want an action the public dont want an election the country doesnt want to election with this house president no other option than getting the public decide who they want as Prime Minister and i commend this motion to the hot under the opposition bill that now has to be passed by Parliament Upper house johnson is forced to seek an extension of the deadline that will remove it to january scuppering his dual die plan for a no deal brix it if nessus. On october 31st but labor the Main Opposition Party isnt ready to give support to johnsons call for an election which needs a 2 thirds majority the also the election to die is a bit like the offer of an apple to snow white in the wiki queen because what hes offering is not an apple or even election but the poison of a no deal. So mr speed i repeat i repeat what i said last night last night let this bill pass and gain royal assent then we will back at election so we do not crash out with a no deal exit from the European Union. And surprisingly rude neighborhood staining johnsons attempt to get an immediate election didnt pass by having the house well we know where. That emotion has no out of. The majority were. Out of the fixed parliaments fact this is about defending our democracy the head of the latest Political Drama demonstrators in Parliament Square denounce Boris Johnsons actions accusing him of engineering a no deal grex it by claiming theyre all still chances of a deal when theres no progress whatsoever Boris Johnson may have only been in power for 6 weeks but he doesnt have control right now nevertheless youve only got to listen to the demonstrators to realise the central issue is about trust on the opposition want to be absolutely sure theres a cop up on some guarantee he cant play any tricks if there is an election the 2nd largest Opposition Party is also against an immediate election people dont trust him when he says he really wants a deal we all suspect that he wants a new deal and we also want. Make sure that hes not able to use his proxy of powers as the Prime Minister to create some tricks and allow the country to crash out another day of unprecedented moves with involvement and with it still uncertainty about what the people of the United Kingdom might expect from its Political Leadership to simmons westminster. Is outside parliament and joins us now in china youve been following the days developments. Its been i suppose disappointing. In some ways it might actually work in his favor. Certainly not unexpected by Boris Johnson that he would lose this motion to try and trigger a general election this evening it was always pretty clear that the labor party would not going to back hes offer of an election until the legislation at least this anti no deal legislation has passed into law that was always going to be the case so i think no disappointment for Boris Johnson it gave him the opportunity to stand up in parliament and frame the terms of the election he wants to fight when it comes getting rid of or changing rather a parliament that he says has stood in the way of everything the government has tried to do all along blocking an opposition that he says hes willing to hand the direction and timing of breaks it over to the European Union its time he said for the people to decide who they want to take breaks it forward the election he wants is between an increasingly invented and angry voting public who want brigs it sorted out against a parliament and not an opposition that he will frame as being willing to delay breaks it indefinitely let me bring in my guest to unpick it all a bit Jonathan LewisDeputy Director of the Kemp CampaignGroup British influence thanks for joining us jonathan watch our Boris Johnsons options now because he isnt going to give up easy no hes not for the opposition as don is trapped him they trapped him by by forcing an extension of bricks it or a quest to extend rights it and then they trapped him by not giving him the election he wanted which would in effect of offered him a helping hand out of the whole huge which he dug himself so now Boris Johnson will try another way most likely to get that election. He can do that in 2 ways one is preposterous lee you might say to call a vote of no confidence in himself which requires just a single vote as a majority but then other m. P. s could try and install another Prime Minister he could get the confidence of the house so that would be a very high risk move and other parties mine not allow him to do it the other thing he could do is to try and change the law but that would again have to pass through the commons and the lords and its very unclear where he could find a majority that at least some of the moment or pursue reading just allow this piece of legislation that seeks to block no deal on october 31st to make its way through the lords get on to the statute books and then call on Jeremy Corbin once again to support his his offer of an election if you have the law on the table on the books then certainly that satisfies a quite tyrian which Jeremy Cooper in laid out but really there has to be some wiggle room now for labor and certainly the other opposition parties to control the timetable the timetable is now the most important thing if you hold the election before this European Council summit on the 17th of october it technically allows johnson the possibility to win that election then tear up the law and actually not request an extension so what the opposition should do and theres talk about here in the opposition about what they will be is about forcing the election after the extension has in fact been sought and granted and then deferring election to after 30 or. So johnson is denied his do or die pledge to leave on tax cuts for tabor and hes made much more vulnerable because hes broken the only promise you havent made a pretty heady game of tactics afoot then Boris Johnson has said he said repeatedly i dont want an election the british people dont want an election he says this is all now being forced upon him some believe though that it was always the plan for the day eat. Office to get an early election absolutely and in a way you cant blame him because he had a majority one before and now he has a majority of minor scotti or something because hes throwing out 21 tory m. P. s the problem hes always had to the election is the platform he gave if you gave them a platform of no you deal in each realizes the threat for the break the party but he assembles a coalition if you like at labor lib dems and all the other parties again said because it becomes such an important election but if he doesnt go on the platform of no deal it means that the bracks that party will be able to tear up the tory support and that can be very dangerous so really his options are very limited its very unclear to see how johnson could ever win a majority high stakes whichever way you look at it journalist thanks very much for joining us Boris Johnson didnt get his way on the motion calling a ling and election tonight expected all to play out again though in the coming days possibly as early as next week. Thank you very much jan how in westminster. The bricks it battles and the app tricks roll on mass protests for and against the move continue to play out on the streets hundreds of pro and anti bricks of protesters rallied neapolitan rants day many of them waving e.
