A rare moment of joy as friends find each other in a refugee camp they fled the turkish incursion in Northern Syria and a huge question now hangs over their future. Well im terry barton good to have you with us the log jam in Britains Parliament has finally broken after almost 2 and a half years of wrangling caused by a government that has no majority lawmakers have overwhelmingly approved Prime Minister Boris Johnsons call for a snap election on december 12th and will likely center on britains depart. There from the European Union which johnson with johnson hoping to secure a majority to finally get his brags deal done a vote of maybe the last chance redish voters to have their say on the issue. Finally something they could agree on britain needs a shake up. The our eyes to the right 438 the notice to the left 20 so the eyes have it the ayes have it it was a moment of near unanimity it is not and the most devoted of parliament. There is only one way to restore the esteem in which our democracy is held and to recover the respect to which parliament should be held by the people of this country and that is finally to offer also to the judgment of the people of this country and i have to say Boris Johnson is hoping fresh elections deliver him a majority to force through breaks it once and for all his opponent however will be campaigning on other issues labor backs a general election because we want this country to be rid of these reckless and destructive conservative government. A government a government that has caused more of our children to be living in poverty more pensioners to pay in poverty and more peoples of a i am in wook poverty. Such themes may contrast with the mood in what will be the 1st christmas election since 1923 politicians have a job on their hands ring a weary electorate more preoccupied with shopping. I just i think disillusioned is the west but i think a lot which is paid to the situation says somethings got to be right because im sick and tired is that most of the population of this country is sick and tired of brechts it. Is running out. With polls showing this election could result in another divided parliament the season of giving may well threw up some unexpected surprises. For the very latest now lets cross over to london where our correspondent there get massive stunning by berger that britain is still deeply divided over breaks it how is of fresh elections supposed to settle the issue well Boris Johnson clearly hopes that hes having a new paul and often this election so hes been blaming parliament for taking defeat for not making breads and happen haldeman has really scrutinize Boris Johnsons government very hard and they forced him for example to an extension to not leave the European Union no idea but they really made him also an extension so Boris Johnson and paul amend are really at loggerheads with each other and hes hoping that the new parliament will come with a clear conservative majority now in the polls that might be the case he is leading but we dont know whether this actually is going to turn out the way he likes or whether at the end of this we are none the wiser. And his conservatives are facing really strong opposition from a number of areas what sort of difficulties is he going to face going into this election with the especially against the against the labor party. Well against the labor party theyre going to campaign also on domestic issues they want to also tighten slightly away from direct campaigning on renationalisation maybe on Health Service Boris Johnson has a lot to fear there also from niger for us to say johnsons conservative government already trying to come across as the government that pushes spreads to true however he hasnt made it happen yet and nicer for us with this new brigs of party is a very Effective Campaign a more or less been campaigning for the last months so they might eat away votes on the right of the conservative party so its not going to be plain sailing for Boris Johnson even though in the polls he is leading and has much better pinioned polls also than hes direct opponent Jeremy Corbyn from the labor party ok so weve got a winter vote coming up december 12th close to christmas the 3rd election in 5 years or voters in the u. K. Looking forward to their spirit. I think if you ask voters most of them will have a deep sigh as and oh my god another election and i cant hear anything more about bricks and so they really worn out by the whole political debate by the back and forth about brett said but i think a lot of people do feel very strongly about brecht in the end i think that they will come out and they will vote even though they might rather snuggle on the sofa with a blanket when its cold in december ok very good thank you so much our correspondent there in london.
