P. s for not voting with the government one of them was the grandson of former Prime MinisterWinston Churchill the sackings have led to questions about johnsons leadership as lawrence lee reports londons Parliament Square is graced with a statue of britains most famous politician and the ghost of Winston Churchill his legacy and beliefs have very much been on peoples minds in this extraordinary contradictory week. When Parliament ResumesPrime MinisterBoris Johnson himself a biographer of churchill invoked the language and even the intonation of the wartime leader to suggest that the u. K. Was somehow in a conflict with the European Union when he used the very same words about the e. U. That churchill had done about nazi germany in 1945 would you Never Surrender that sort of language comes from the playbook of johnsons new chief of staff Dominic Cummings a brick said idealogue behind the slogan take back control and cummings many believe was also behind the brutal treatment of those conservatives who could not accept johnsons agenda contrary to the Prime Ministers assertion one of those was cynical assumes a conservative grandy summarily sacks with 20 others for refusing to support johnsons do or die approach to leaving the European Union but his speech after being told he was no longer welcome to Johnsons Conservative Party was extraordinary not least because johnson had sacked the grandson of Winston Churchill where they were together 950. 00. I am truly very sad that it should end in this way only does my most fervent hope that this house will rediscover the spirit of compromise humility and understand that will enable asked finally to push ahead with the vital work in the interests of the whole country sitting in front of soames was another conservative rebel Richard Benyon who was also sex the next day he told me of his concerns about the direction the party he loved was being taken in the attitude of some of the people. Who were around the Prime Minister not. Coming to speak about it you know yes and you know i think they have a big responsibility for the size of the rebellion last night and some of the things that were said to colleagues of mine more extraordinary. The generally held view is that the Johnson Administration is now so terrified of nigel farage as brecks it party that despises the European Union but it will no longer brook any dissent it was far too status in british politics forced the bracks referendum in the 1st place and now it seems he is driving the conservative party to talk to us. Consequently Todays Conservative Party finds itself at war with the European Union and with itself its legacy and relationship with its most famous son the irony isnt lost on anyone that after the 2nd world war churchill gave all of his most famous speeches in which he called for the creation of a United States of europe and working together economically and socially for the greater good that phrase United States of europe is used by brick sitters including those inside the johnson ministration as the biggest insult of all. The. New found love of the European Union from those terrified of bricks it is now forced johnson into a corner and could easily lead to his resignation in the coming weeks the conservative party has a lot of thinking to do Lawrence Lee Al Jazeera london. Russia has held Regional Elections after weeks of protests because tens of opposition candidates were bound for running the vote is seen as a test of the popularity of president Vladimir Putin and his allies the ruling indicted russia party is browned has become so toxic its candidates presenting themselves as independents steadfastly reports from moscow. Which is the 1st really lubow sobel has become the face of a new protest movement in moscow the 31 year old lawyer was banned from running in the election for the citys Regional Parliament and has been arrested several times for organizing protests even though her name is not on the ballot she still had to the polling station the opposition led by election other decided that a socalled smart phone thats a vote against the Ruling United Russia Party of president Vladimir Putin would be more effective than boycotting the elections altogether the prettiest little survival its a protest vote its not a vote for your candidate we go to the street was a protest and now we wont and protest is a form of protest to show that we disagree with politics as a current story. And so on those election follows weeks of some of the largest protests seen in russia for years tens of thousands of demonstrators urging the government to let her and other independent opposition candidates run riot police reacted by arresting 106 protesters have been sentenced up to 5 years in prison and president putin justified to arrest by saying protesters broke the law because they didnt have a permit he also doesnt see a problem in banning in the fandom the opposition candidates. Are going to in some countries there are 30 or 300 candidates because of their work does not change overs its not quantity but quality that is important i think that we have decent candidates. But some russians say that despite a decades long rule of the united. Russia Party Something could change because of the protests some president. Im voting for the 1st time my life why i dont know i think i did not fear my importance i did not think you can change anything now it appears that we cannot prove. In most cases a protest vote against united russia will be a vote for the communist the 2nd Largest Party in russia this may look like a democratic election but a few things are missing most importantly the names of independent opposition candidates and not on the ballot papers while the outcome of the rain to no actions are not expected to make much of a difference if the opposition strategy for this socalled smart forward is successful it will give a signal to the government that opposition is growing just before the polls close the oppositions call to participate in the vote didnt seem to have been heeded similar to previous elections turnout was only around 20 percent step aljazeera moscow. Samuel green is director of the Russia Institute at Kings College london and joins us now from farnham and sari thanks very much for coming on to aljazeera i almost feel we should have some sympathy with the russian voter with the opposition saying well vote with a small vote vote for somebody else and the United Russia Party candidate is basically saying were not representing united russia whats your reading of who is actually going to make a decent amount of votes from. Will it really depends on the merits who heard mostly got off at elections well im in St Petersburg and and who are far east in other parts of the country. As as you suggest a united russia is is unpopular is really on a path to to regain that popularity and i think the governments main concern right now is to make sure that the popularity of the ruling party doesnt grow on the president as he begins to think about what the country has been able to climb for his current term post were headed and its 2024 and so were seeing a lot of you know Risk Management and i think their their approach initially was to try to just you know get people not to pay too much attention to the elections right so you dont look at the candidates that theyre excited about ron are you then run candidates that nobody can and can identify and you really hope that people stay home and do lead to you know a very significant other protest which of course they met with interest theyre going to mount of course that that has not and im not taking a point about people saying hi im the ne they pull for that turnout was low on the flipside of that do we expect to know what the actual tally is are we going to see an honest figure at the end of this what were beginning to see some early numbers coming in and it does seem to be a mix and we often unfortunately in these sorts of cases the significant changes between the early numbers and then the actual numbers that are recorded by the Electoral Commission it does look in some places like in St Petersburg that the governments favorite candidate has won has won in other places in the far east the government has lost quite a wide margin the best estimates ive seen so far markets are just that united russia or if its candidate even though theyre not running into that label will get between 55 and 60 percent. The seats in the council if there does turn out to be are the tower that will actually be taken by the opposition is a pretty good showing how even though as you mention as your reporter imagine most of those exposed to the communists whether other groups so only such ink of light ready for the opposition how do they build on this if there is that momentum here where do they go next what were they what they need to do i think if they want to have any chance it in terms of national of all options is to begin to try to make some use of a seat so they can win on the ground whether municipal elections or regional governments are to show that are electing somebody else would actually make a difference in peoples lives are the biggest. Growth in politics isnt between people who think that the countrys well there are an orderly government everybody pretty much understands this or they govern but they assume that it doesnt really matter power and so if you can begin to change that what if you are then you might be able to change of folks samuel green thank you so much for speaking to us from the russia and stitching athens of people have taken part in bosnia as 1st of a gay pride march the parade ended peacefully despite fears that online hate speech would he will violence more than a 1000 Police Officers were deployed to protect the march after conservative groups organized counter rallies bosnia is a lost ball can come try to hold a pride parade.
