In the region last week. And huawai says sales of its handsets have plumeted 40 since the us sanctions and is slashing production by 30 billion. Bbc chinese will look at how huawei can possibly respond to that. Egypts former president Mohammed Morsi has died afterfainting in a courtroom. Heres the announcement from state tv. Translation Mohammed Morsi passed away today during the Espionage Court hearing, the decease asked the judge to speak and he was permitted and after the session was adjourned he fainted and passed away. His body has been moved to the hospital and the necessary procedures are to be taken. Mr morsi was egypts first democratically elected president. He led the Muslim Brotherhood organisation to victory in the 2012 president ial election. The brotherhood had been banned under long time leader Hosni Mubarak and was banned again after the military seized power and ended his presidency in 2013. Hed been in custody ever since. The Muslim Brotherhood have released a statement. The bbcs rania sabree is in cairo. We do know that his family had made repeated requests to the Egyptian Government to give more medical care and to allow them to visit him more often and they were denied visiting him possibly for the first three yea rs of him possibly for the first three years of his detention from 2013 and he was only seen for short periods and they always complained of his medical condition. The medical care offered to prisoners in egypt is a lwa ys offered to prisoners in egypt is always of a very poor standard and this has actually been something of the Human Rights Organisations commented on repeatedly, and when it comes to medical care in particular it was not used as a punitive measure against the former egyptian president but rather it is the state in egyptian prisons and that goes for thousands of prisoners and in particular political prisoners. Remind us why he was in prison in the first place and why he was appearing in court today. You just said that he came to power in 2012 after the arab spring and the removal of the former president Hosni Mubarak and when he was in power there were lots of objections to the way the Muslim Brotherhood was handling the country in general and protest broke in the country a few months after he came to power, december 2012 and continued until june 2013 with massive protests on the 30th of june. June 2013 with massive protests on the 30th ofjune. The army gave the political powers three days to solve theissues political powers three days to solve the issues which they did not reach a solution with, and so on the 3rd ofjuly he was deposed and the then minister of defence came on television announced he was removing Mohamed Morsi as president and that they were going to have an interim president. Right after his deposition he was taken into custody and detained and he was facing four court trials and one of them was todays session and it was about espionage with hamas in the neighbouring gaza strip. What reaction has there been from egyptian politicians . The Muslim Brotherhood issued a statement before we started this bulletin and it called on the followers of the Muslim Brotherhood in all countries of the world to gather in front of the egyptian embassies at a certain time ona the egyptian embassies at a certain time on a certain day as a means of offering respect to the former president morsi and also to show their objection to the means by which he died and what they say is tantamount to state killing. State killing of the first ever elected egyptian president. As for the other egyptians who are not part of the Muslim Brotherhood, there is dismay and anxiety and bewilderment, disbelief and anticipation about what is going to happen next. Much more on his political career on the bbc news website. Lets talk about this young man. Joshua wong is one of hong kongs most prominent student activists here is tweeting earlier. Here he is walking free. Looking focused and relieved. He was one of the faces of the 2014 pro democracy protests and has just served a month in prison connected to them. Well, now he has a new protest movement to join after the vast protests of the last two weeks. Joshua wong spoke earlier. The hong kong people will not stay quiet under president xi and carrie lam, and what the one people ask for is the withdrawal of the extradition amendment what the hong kong people ask for. These protests are focused on stopping a new law that would allow extradition to mainland china. And despite the hong kong authorities saying theyd postpone the bill this is what happened. Protesters say a Million People turned out although the police said it was much smaller. It was a peaceful event. This was a contrast to last wednesday when some of the protests turned violent and the Police Used Tear Gas and water cannon and some demonstrators tried to get into government buildings. Well, this is the scene today. Much smaller crowds, though, they are still blocking some roads. Joshua wong immediately rallied his supporters who are camped outside government buildings. Hes in familiar territory. In 2014, he was central to the Umbrella Movement and addressed protestors many times. He spoke to the bbc earlier. I strongly support civil disobedience and direct action, and i now believe now is the time for us to show our dissatisfaction. What i realise is when the Police Used Tear Gas and pepper spray, they try to physically assault any activists in hong kong, it has delivered a clear signal that the government and the regime has turned to turn tried to turn a whole generation of citizens from the normal resident living in hong kong to a whole generation of dissidents. Heres the Washington Post arguing that the protests so far have been deliberately leaderless to avoid the prosecutions like the one that put joshua wong injail. Heres bbc chinese martin yip in hong kong on why his presence is important. In the days of occupy central he was quite a key person and if we can go back a little bit, in 2011, he was just a high school student, he was a superstar for the democracy camp and a fresh one when the democracy camp was looking old. He led these High School Students over what is the pro beijing idea, and he led people into the occupy central movement, he was not the main organiser but he has ended up as one of the three key organisations and he took the whole movement in some way until the end. This is carrie lam, the hong kong chief executive. Carrie lam has always argued that this extradition bill is to stop hong kong becoming safe haven for fugitives. Her critics believe shes taking orders from beijing and this bill will expose anyone living in or passing through hong kong to chinese justice. Well, the pressure told because at the weekend, we had this statement from carrie lam. After repeated internal deliberations over the last two days, i now announce that the government has decided to suspend the legislative moment exercise. We will restart our communication with all sectors of society, we will do more explanation work and listen to different views of society. Then on sunday she said she had to apologise to the people of hong kong for this annd also pledged to adopt a most sincere and humble attitude. Heres joshua wongs reaction to that. We recognise that that is a kind of achievement, because of a Million People of hong kong joining a rally to show our dissatisfaction, but what we ask for is the withdrawal of the extradition law instead of having it suspended. We know carrie lam or the Hong Kong Government so it was suspended, but what we ask for is total withdrawal of the plan at all. No extradition law at all. That is what we ask for. The hong kong authorities have called the protestors rioters, thats certainly not true of the vast majority of them. So who are they . This article from english language news site shanghai ist argued many are christians and that the hymn hallelujah praise the lord has become an unofficial anthem of these protests. This video was shared by the activist and singer denise ho. Sing hallelujah. Studio she describes protesters resolving a dispute and then one of them breaks into song sing hallelujah to the lord. Heres Helier Cheung in hong kong. Some of them are 16, 17, in their early 20s and so they were too young to ta ke early 20s and so they were too young to take part in the occupy protests in 2014 because their parents were not would not let them out of the house but i spoke to some of them and they felt they had grown up in and they felt they had grown up in an era where the rights were being taken away, they say, by the Chinese Government, and they felt like they had fewer freedoms, and they feel like 2047 which is when the 50 Year Agreement of the one country two systems agreement ends, they feel like it is quite close to them in the future and there is concern about that which is really driving them. They are also very tech savvy as you would expect so a lot of them told me they did not want to talk to me through whatsapp and they would rather use a telegram or other secure apps because they were nervous about showing their identities, and if you look at the protests they often wearing goggles and face masks to hide their faces. We also have some insight into how the protests are being reported in mainland china. State english language outlet china daily described those who took to the streets on sunday as a small group of parents, protesting against the us meddling with the extradition legislation. Foreign powers were also accused of misleading young people in hong kong. We can now talk to our guest, can we talk about a shift in tone in the Chinese Media . Absolutely. The fact there is even an acknowledgement of these protests so far, but there is still a plane down of how many people took part. China daily saying it is only parents who are going out and protesting, saying that about 30 people, but on wednesday said tens of thousands of people, not really reflecting the true figures which we re reflecting the true figures which were hundreds of thousands of people at any given time, millions even overall. So this is what is coming out in the english language media but in chinese language media that there is outright censorship and it is being censored so hong kong has been censored and the word hong kong has been censored ever since the protests began last week, but they have been more words which have been protested. Terms relating to areas of hong kong, like Victoria Park where the protests started taking place, where the march began, and where people have marched through. What about public statements from chinese officials . Would they appear in the media at all . They did appear on saturday, specifically when the bill was suspended, so the Foreign Ministry responded and they said it was us interference related to the bill and there has been a real emphasis on basically making the message that hong kong is an area that belongs to china so this message has been coming out a lot from official media and from the government, that hong kong is an area that belongs to china and as china supports the bill the frustrations related to that. Thanks for joining frustrations related to that. Thanks forjoining us. We will talk to you again, im sure. Stay with us on outside source still to come. A tribunal in london finds that china is still harvesting organs from prisoners, despite saying its put a stop to it. Emergency workers in lincolnshire say there may be another breach in the walls of the river steeping this week. Two months worth of rain fell in two days last week, forcing around a thousand people out of their homes. And weather forecasts are predicting more rainfall tomorrow and wednesday. Danny savage has spen the day in wainfleet. In wainfleet, its a waiting game. Hundreds of homes have been evacuated because of fears of another flood in the next few days. Not everyone has gone. Some people dont want to leave, preparing for the worst, but hoping for the best. Weve been told the river could breach at any moment if theres any more rain, which were expecting on tuesday or wednesday. And theyve forecast terrific thunderstorms and rain so if that river gets any more water, its going to burst its banks again. The fear is that the forecast rain will put too much strain on the high river banks. Theyve plugged one breach, but the authorities are worried about others. This is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. Our lead story is. Egypts former president Mohamed Morsi has died during a Court Appearance in cairo. Mr morsi had been injail ever since he was ousted in a military coup in 2013. Electricity services have been restored to all of argentina huawei says sales of its handsets had sunk 40 in the past month because of us sanctions. Its founder spoke earlier. Translation we realise that when we reached a certain level that there might be competition it did not occui might be competition it did not occur that the Us Government would be so determined to take such extreme measures against huawei. We have done preparation, like a badly damaged air plane, we are first protecting the core components like the fuel tank and not the other core components, so in the next two years we will reduce our capacity and our revenue will be down by about 30 billion us dollars compared to forecasts. This is the first time huawei has admitted the sanctions are biting. Back in may, mr ren told bloomberg that the us is not the International Police and said huawei could withstand american pressure. Last month the us put huawei on a list of companies that us firms cant trade with. It labelled huawei a Security Risk and said it would reassess sharing intelligence with countries that used huawei technology. Already a number of countries including australia and new zealand are heavily restricitng huawei particularly around any involvement in new 56 phone networks. Tech companies also had to change tack. Google barred huawei from some updates to the android operating system. That means some google apps wont work on new huawei smartphones. Heres robin brant in shanghai. The reality is that business in america and allowing american firms to do business with this Telecoms Company is about to have a very serious effect on huawei, it relies ona serious effect on huawei, it relies on a host of american companies, much of them giving them a high Quality Technology at leeds and its smartphones and that business is going to come to a grinding halt giving them high Quality Technology it needs. Huawei has seen real growth rate record revenues of 108 billion last year in 2018. One interesting dimension to this story is that it may see huawei seek greater independence from us firms. Look at this tweet from the Chinese Ambassador to pakistan. And huawei has also been tweeting. It has called on us companies to stop the rot lets have a look at this from the perspective of huawei, do they have the capacity to do without american firms . Heres bbc chineses vincent ni. According to the statements from huawei they are well prepared and they say they have been preparing for this for many years. In the press c0 nfe re nce for this for many years. In the press conference it was said they had been stockpiling for at least 90 days of these components, and we know that the us has issued a ban but they also issued a waiver which will expire in august, and that coincides with the end of the 90 day limit that the founder of huawei was talking about, and the real crunch moment is what happens next and Company Macro say they have been building their own alternatives for some time huawei say they have. They can look at asian suppliers, for example, like one company in taiwan which has been supplying to huawei for some time but they have also said if american law comes they will probably look at whether we have to abide by american laws as well, so it is not going to look very good and we will have to see exactly what huawei is going to come up exactly what huawei is going to come up with after the end of this 90 day waiver period. Who decides the strategy at huawei . It is a very big company. Are there people in beijing who are taking a very keen interest . This is the question everyone is asking. Official statements, this is the question everyone is asking. Officialstatements, it is a lwa ys asking. Officialstatements, it is always huawei that is deciding its own strategy, and they made it clear they are an independent company but we have also seen chinese diplomats talking about huawei, calling for people to support huawei so the relationship between huawei and the Chinese Government has always been a quite murky thing and we dont know exactly who is calling the shots. But according to official statements it is huawei which is running its own show. The huawei story is happening in the context of the broader us china trade war. What will happen next in the us china trade war a crucial hearing is underway in washington to determine the answer. The Trump Administration is proposing tariffs on another 300 billion dollars worth of imports from china on top of the 250 billion dollars worth that already face levies. 324 witnesses are giving evidence to a public hearing on the impact theyll have and americans will be hit with consumer goods like mobile phones, laptops and clothing to have levvies imposed on them. One American Business leader who represents walmart, target and gap says more tariffs are bad for business. Ta riffs tariffs and taxes, so the ultimate fa ct tariffs and taxes, so the ultimate fact is that consumers will be paying more, we have 250 billion worth of imports which face a 25 tariff on the threat is that every item coming from china will face a 2596 item coming from china will face a 25 tariff and that means consumers will walk out of stores with items that will simply cost more, every single shop and car will be full of items that will cost more as a result of this and we think that is bad economics and bad policy and we are eagerfor a bad economics and bad policy and we are eager for a resolution this trade war which gets us back to normal. We have engaged with the white house on this topic and we had predicted prices will go up and now they are going up we are being proven they are going up we are being prove n a ccu rate they are going up we are being proven accurate for our predictions, and our hope is that over the course of the week that the 300 plus other witnesses that testify before this group will make the same case and ultimately that the administration will understand the real risk of pursuing this strategy any further. Donald trump says the terrace will in time force companies to manufacture more in the United States and less in china says the tariffs. The wife of the former nissan chairman carlos ghosn has told the bbc his arrest was a conspiracy to stop the car maker fully merging with renault. Nissan disputes that and argues there is substantial evidence against him. Carole ghosn told our correspondent Michelle Fleury shes taken her husbands case to President Trump. The World Leaders are going to be meeting at the g20 at the end of the month and i would like President Trump to speak to Prime Minister abe about fair trial conditions and let me speak to my husband and to respect the presumption of innocence until proven guilty. When was the la st until proven guilty. When was the last time you saw your husband . When he got arrested on the 4th of april when the prosecutors stormed into the apartment at five in the morning and they took us by surprise and they told carlos he was under arrest. He got dressed and they took him away. Did you have any contact with your husband in that period . |j have with your husband in that period . have not spoken to him since then. He got out on bail, however, they told him one of the bail conditions was that he is not allowed to speak to me or talk to me, which i find inhumane. What you think of the criminal charges against your husband . What do you think. Criminal charges against your husband . What do you thinkm could have been dealt with internally at the company. Even if there is wrongdoing . Everything could have been dealt with internally and this did not need to go this far. Inafew in a few minutes we will bring you up to date with the battle to replace theresa may as the uks Prime Minister. Good evening. It is our nightly look at our weather around the globe and we will focus on the forecast across europe. In the uk it has been a very disappointing start to june europe. In the uk it has been a very disappointing start tojune but europe. In the uk it has been a very disappointing start to june but the truth is that across europe the summer has so far been relentless. We have had weeks of heat across large parts of the continent and a lot of sunshine but in the uk low pressure and cloud as well as showers has been plaguing us for some time and hence the flooding we have had in the last few days after the persistence of the rainfall and not much will change in the coming days. Low pressure will keep things cool in the uk and large parts of the continent will continue to enjoy heat that is if you like the heat. Looking at the weather over the mediterranean. Nothing unusual here. Blobs of blue, summertime thunderstorms, clearly very high temperatures as you would expect around the mediterranean, in excess of 30 degrees, but as soon as you get to the very far west, even parts of portugal, the far west of france and the British Isles, its a lot cooler, 20 in london and 29 in paris and a lot of heat extending into central parts of europe and also southern parts of scandinavia. This is wednesday and the same pattern continues, so the low is very close to scotland, keeping things cool but the heat is stretching right across into the very far east of europe and also into western russia and moscow is not far off 30 degrees. This is the forecast, madrid staying heart and even hotting up as we go through the week into the weekend. Staying heart. Paris mostly into the 20s. Overall it is very much the summer across parts of europe. Lets go towards the subcontinent and southeast asia. Some people go to this part of the work for holidays but this is very much the monsoon season and there is a big storm cloud across southern parts of india and the bay of bengal into southeast asia. We get these south westerly winds which build the storm clouds and push the moisture inland and that monsoon extends into parts of china where recently there has been a lot of rainfall and that rain is going to continue through tuesday and into wednesday across the Yangtze River valley and also affecting South East Asia around myanmar and many other coasts of thailand. Talking about storms, there is a Stormy Weather heading our way on tuesday night and more on that coming up in half an hour. There is Stormy Weather. That is it for me. Hello, im ros atkins. This is outside source. Its its been conformed dominic its been confirmed in egypt at the former president mum and morsi has died. Mohamed morsi. State tv said he collapsed after appearing in court in cairo. Mr morsis been injail ever since he was ousted by the military in 2013. Hong kong pro democracy activist joshua wong is released from prison and had this message. The hong kong people, we will not keep silenced under the oppression of president xi and the chief executive, carrie lam. Iran says that in ten days, itll break the limit on its uranium stockpile and so breach the nuclear deal brokered in 2015. This as tensions grow after the attacks on two oil tankers last week. A tribunal atribunal in a tribunal in london has found that china is still harvesting organs from prisoners. More details on that inafew from prisoners. More details on that in a few minutes. Just want to give you a quick update on to our top story, the death of the former egyptian president Mohamed Morsi. He had been imprisoned. The year before, he was egypts in a critically elected president. We have this statement from reuters. Mohamed morsi was the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood. We know the Muslim Brotherhood. We know the Muslim Brotherhood is calling for a mass funeral and there is an avid illegal to be tension between the ruling military and also the Muslim Brotherhood about how his death is mourned. The organisation has described his death as murder, say he had been held in solitary confinement for six years. More reaction on that story, no doubt, tomorrow from egypt. But now we are going to turn to the issue of Irans Nuclear deal, because it appears close to collapse. Iran says that in ten days, itll break the limit on its uranium stockpile and that its quadrupled the production of it. Bear in mind, uranium is used to make reactorfuel and potentially to produce nuclear weapons. The deal was signed in 2015 all smiles then. But then last year, the mood changed when donald trump signed this memorandum pulling out of the deal. And a few months later, re introduced sanctions. Those sanctions are at the heart of these latest developments. Iran says european countries, which still back the deal, are not doing enough to help iran deal with the sanctions. Heres a spokesman for irans Atomic Energy organisation. Translation the europeans still have some time left. They, of course, had the whole of last year, which we labelled from our side the year of strategic patience. They had a further two months after the year had passed. For us, we can interpret this inaction in two ways. One, either they dont want to take any action, or two, they want to do something but are unable to do so for whatever reason. Eu Foreign Ministers met in luxembourg today with iran on the agenda, and this was the takeaway. The interest we have is to keep the nuclear deal in place. Its not an easy exercise. We never made a mystery out of it that, during the last year, it has become increasingly difficult. So our focus is not to enter into a blame game or giving responsibility for a collapse of a deal that might come. Our focus is to keep the agreement in place. These us sanctions are having a Significant Impact on iran. Iranian oil exports have more than halved you can see when the sanctions arrived in march last year. Exports fell off a cliff. In terms of buying, here are the major countries to buy oil from iran. Taiwan, greece and italy halted imports altogether. The two biggest buyers china and india have reduced imports by 50 . And the us estimates that iran has lost more than 10 billion in revenue. This is whats happened to the iranian currency. Down and down in the last couple of yea rs. Down and down in the last couple of years. In terms of inflation in iran, well, its a different story in terms of the graph spiking because of the pressure in the economy. As youll know, tension between the us and iran is particularly intense. Two oil tankers were attacked in the strait of hormuzjust off the iranian coast last week. The us blames iran. Iran denies any involvement. Also the us secretary mike pompeo has accused iran of trying to shoot down an american drone during the attack on the tankers. Heres the clip. There are countries that just wish this would go away, and they want to act in a way that is counterfactual. No one disputes that this is the Islamic Republic of iran taking these actions, to deny this International Waterway and the freedom of navigation that is a fundamental right of every country to travel through there. Ive seen no one deny it, and im confident that as we continue to develop the fact pattern, countries around the world will not only accept the basic facts which i think are indisputable but will come to understand that this is an Important Mission for the world. The basic facts are not indisputable. It is worth 20 on japan and germany are to many more credible evidence before they support american claims. These stricken tankers have now arrived in port in the united arab emirates. Our correspondent mark lowen is in the port city of fujairah. You are getting some hawkish elements within the Us Administration talking about a retaliatory strike on iran. That said, there is also a knowledge, ithink, in iran that the us does not want to go to war here, that, of course, the ghosts of the iraq war still stalk this region, that the us does not yet have at all a kind of Wide International consensus of some kind of military intervention against iran. So, in a sense, you get a feeling that iran is kind of pushing its luck in saying, how far can we go in terms of potentially what they did on the tankers although, of course, theyre denying any complicity in that. What could they do in terms of breaching the accords of the nuclear deal, to show the us what theyre still capable of doing despite these crippling economic sanctions . Next, lets learn about a tribunal in london which is found china is still harvesting organs from prisoners. Thats something beijing still denies. The tribunal heard from medical experts and human rights investigators. And at the centre of its conclusions is a religious movement called falun gong. This are its followers in new york. But in china, it had around 70 million followers until 1999, when it was banned and many of its followers were imprisoned. Now this tribunal has concluded it is. The bbcs matthew hill has been investigating this issue. This is his report. This secretly filmed footage captures transplant patients in a beijing hospital last november. It appears to show transplant patients in a busy waiting room admitting theyd only waited a few weeks to receive their organ. The suspicion is, theres a roaring black market in organs. In other countries, it can take years to receive a suitable matching organ. But here, its only weeks. China does have a fledgling Organ Donation scheme, claiming more than half a Million People have registered to donate. At an International Transplant Conference last year in madrid, i put it to the doctor in charge of this system that many millions more donor registrations would be necessary to explain such short waiting times. Last year, we had about 15,000 organ tra nspla ntations performed. He claimed organs came from some of the 6 Million People who die each year in intensive care. That was from the bbcs matthew hill, and ive been talking to him. The chinese are of the opinion. They gave a statement. In their statement, they say they always follow the World Health Organisation guidelines on Organ Donation, on the principles. That includes transparency and actually strengthened their management of the Organ Donation system in recent yea rs, Organ Donation system in recent years, and also the british people must not be misled by todays report. And in terms of being misled, youve been to scrubbing this tribunal as independent. Can you give us a bit more background on exactly who set it up and what it is . They call themselves independents, but it was always set up independents, but it was always set up by independents, but it was always set up by campaigners who were concerned about this issue, including falun gong campaigners. Having said that, the people on the tribunal are human rights lawyers, theres a transplant surgeon. The chairman, indeed, was the qc in the prosecuting case against the. There was also a separation between campaigners and the panel themselves, so they werent allowed to talk to each other. But does the tribunal have any teeth . Enough sleep with a lot of information into the public to me but can it exert any pressure . Its got no legal status as such, but they would say that they are the second best thing to come if you like, the un special, a body like that, taking a look at that. They believe somebody needs to look at it, a fairly robust system, cross examining witnesses, witnesses giving evidence from all over the world, over 50 witnesses, giving evidence from all over the world, over50 witnesses, inviting all parties, including the chinese, to participate. In the next few minutes on outside source, the latest africa i report, the selling of drugs, meaning ugandans dont get them for free as they should. Chaos, confusion and Communications Problems hampered the efforts of Emergency Services to help victims of the London Bridge attacks in 2017. A senior London Ambulance Service Manager told the inquest that it took too long to reach some of the victims, more than three hours after the attackers had been killed. Heres richard lister. It was already a busy saturday night for the London Ambulance service when calls began coming in reporting an accident on London Bridge. It soon became clear this was a terror attack. 22 ambulances and other paramedics were sent in, but some of those who needed their help the most never got it. Sara zelenak, sebastien belanger, james mcmullan, Alexandre Pigeard and kirsty boden were all fatally stabbed close to the same courtyard at the edge of borough market. But it was almost three hours before this area was declared safe for paramedics to enter, and by then it was too late. Treatment for those injured was given by Police Officers and ordinary people whod been on a night out. But they were left on their own. Keep moving. Keep moving that way. The police evacuated the area, concerned there might be more attacks. The paramedics had to leave along with everyone else and never saw the group of casualties. The court heard the Emergency Services were overflowing with conflicting information about a range of casualties and never got a precise report about those in the courtyard. The London Ambulance Service Operations director, paul woodrow, said today. He admitted, though, it took too long to make a decision to commit specialist teams to find those injured. The question that still haunts the families is whether any of their loved ones could have survived if medics had got to them in time. The court heard today that was unlikely, though emergency teams did save at least 19 people whod been critically injured. This is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. Egypts former president Mohamed Morsi has died during a Court Appearance in cairo. He had been injail ever since he was ousted by the military in 2013. The battle to replace theresa may is moving through the gears. Theres a bbc debate tomorrow with all the contenders. Last night, channel 4 held its own debate except frontrunner Boris Johnson opted out. Lets hear from the other five. Just a sec, michael. We cannot leave unless parliament votes for it, dom. You would buckle because youve shown you would take another extension, you would take no deal off the table. You said that you would accept legislation. I will defend our democracy, dom. I will defend our democracy. You dont deliver on democracy by trashing democracy. You know, were not selecting a dictator of our country. Were selecting a Prime Minister. Were not going to get a different dealfrom europe. You and i and jeremy and sajid have argued for that deal because its a 550 page document worked out in detail. Youre not going to get any changes out of europe. We have got to sit down and negotiate that deal. Its very, very difficult, but i say that it is fundamentally pessimistic to say we cant do that, because that means giving this country the very stark choice of no deal. You have noticed, channel four provided in empty lectern for Boris Johnson. His absence from media interviews over the last couple of weeks is being widely criticised. Heres the editor of politics home, who tweeted that. Mrjohnson also opted out of the lobby hustings. And the chair of the media lobby tweeted afterwards. This, remember, is the man favour to become Prime Minister. Despite all this, today, borisjohnson won the support of Health Secretary matt hancock. That raised a few eyebrows mr hancocks on brexit position the more minor than Boris Johnson. Our Political Editor Laura Kuennsberg has written about that in her blog. She says mr hancock wants to stay in the cabinet. She quotes one source as saying it was back boris now, or in five weeks, so best to get on board. Lets look at how the leadership race works. On tuesday, therell be another round of voting. Each of these candidates need the backing of 33 mps to stay in the race. The party will continue to have votes until only two mps are left, at which point conservative members will choose the leader. They will make the final decision. They will make the final decision. The reason i am saying borisjohnson is in the box he does because this is in the box he does because this is the result from the first round. He won 114 votes from conservative mps in the last round, jeremy hunt next closest on 43. Lets speak to our Political Correspondent rob watson. I know journalists are i knowjournalists are getting hot under the collar with mrjohnson refusing interview requests and so on but in the end, is the conservative Party Members he needs to please and not the journalist. Its to please and not the journalist. Its not just to please and not the journalist. Its notjust the members but he needs to be one of the last two standing. All sorts of journalists are being very hot under the collar about this but it does not have seen to have done mrjohnson any problem with the election he cares about, which is his fellow conservative mps and then, yes, the wider membership of the conservative party. How do you grade the efforts of the other five trained muscle into this . In some ways, its been helped by Boris Johnson not being there, certainly for the Television Debate last night but i guess all of them are sort of startling to break what i guess one would call borisjohnsons a mental for some there is a sort of feeling about this literature brace that it really is borisjohnsons toulouse one would call borisjohnsons momentum. Lets talk about brexit, because theresa may fundamentally had to go because he just could not get exit consensus in westminster.

Im glad you asked because if you asked me, what did you make of the debate last night, and about borisjohnsons contribution, its all a reminder of what an almighty crisis brexit has treated for the government and the conservative party.

Some have said they will take the uk out of the you without a deal but they are not a slain how that could happen. They have not explained. Also its of hustings, interviews by everyone apart from Boris Johnson, but hustings, interviews by everyone apart from borisjohnson, but its fairto apart from borisjohnson, but its fair to say we are not a great deal further forward on fair to say we are not a great deal furtherforward on 100 is going to happen with the b word. Very good question about the bbc debate. What is Boris Johnsons question about the bbc debate. What is borisjohnsons objective going to that . I was going to point to my foot. Borisjohnson to that . I was going to point to my foot. Boris johnson is to that . I was going to point to my foot. Borisjohnson is rather daft prone, to say things hed rather regret or sometimes not, so i think he just wants to get through it positive, bubbly, the sort of candidate that whatever people thing about the false and this character, they think at least he is a bit of a character. Rob, thanks very much indeed, and whether youre watching on the news channel or outside the uk, you can watch that debate live in the hour before outside source. Next on the programme.
