13 pm here in moscow welcome to our names you know your company. Its been quite the night in the u. K. The conservative party top the general election polls by a huge distance with leader Boris Johnson declaring. Finally happen for the opposition parties pretty much this. Labor suffered humiliating defeat scenarios long regarded as their loyal heart liberal democrats leader meanwhile lost. Lets cross to westminster. Good morning so its become very clear the election has paid a massive majority. Yes has since made a victory speech and met the queen for permission to form a. New government and return to downing street and lets welcome full of their of london Ken Livingstone and expert alex avoided to the program gentlemen thank you for joining us well weve got to ask Ken Livingston what he makes of this election result well its the most depressing ive seen for decades because no one really knows exactly whats going to hamley bricks it cause no ones walked away with anything like this before but most of the data about the time we stay down our exports to europe went down dramatically so there could be hundreds of thousands of jobs at risk but what worries me more than break c. Is Boris Johnson isnt really a politician he wants to be a celebrity be famous and he doesnt have an agenda and i think this could be the most indecisive government of my lifetime well we have a professor specializes in brakes that what do you make of what kevins ascent i think certainly theres a big element of the cult of celebrity divorces right me and of course he was a regular in osa nevada usefully you woman of the channel for example so its hard to divorce that from the Public Perception over there was also i mean when Boris Johnson was the mayor of london as well and im sure you can see relate to that as well but is it a case of we are now going to see as you said hes now got this effect of this mandate this sort of mandate is he going to be a different type of politician which could be very interesting because theyve made so many pledges to try to match what labor that it demands for him more police build more housing rebuild our social services but also saying were not going to increase taxes or boring so you begin with he said he if its going to happen i suspect in 5 years time. This government will be wiped out because it will have alienated so many people jeremy called the know what top now he said hes not going to stand for another that you know whats his future and how can what i mean jeremy is i think in the seventys it would be a bit old to be right here in 5 years but why i find interesting is clearly bricks. The biggest factor in all of this cost so many votes traditional labor seats the vote of now which the choice but ive never said i mean literally the lines about jeremy called weve seen over the last few years all this stuff about anti semitism anti semitism ive known jeremy for 45 years ive never heard him say anything racist sexist and you semitic ive never seen him lose his temper i mean people just think hes much like the nicest member of parliament that weve got up there for alex was it lost in the media. I think a big element of it was yes in this particular concentration media ownership here but i cannot pick up on something regarding the intentions of johnson as a pm i think we need to look at the people who went into them there are 2 aspects of this one the socalled one nation tory but 2 we made a big deal about pretty markets as the way forward and if we look at the people in temperament like Dominic Leeds trusts you know the material by a published in the past is very much in favor of private health and most of the n. H. S. And more deregulation and i think this is the thing underpinning any nascent conversations with the United States government for example we need to keep this back about mines ok youre not in agreement what i think the real problem is if we can negotiate a trade deal with the us thats for the largest economy in the world were nowhere near that they will set the terms and theres quite a lot of tory m. P. s believe in privatizing things on the n. H. S. You know and i mean shamefully carried on with that opening up too much of it and the simple fact is a every privatized nation has been damaging you see the cost of what youre buying going out whether its power or fares or whatever and you see the quality of the Service Going down whilst the chief executive earns millions of pounds but also there isnt there a time table issues one of the fact that boris this sort of locks himself in saying weve got to get it done within a year doesnt take away your sort of key negotiating chip. But i mean it. Depends what kind of trade agreement with europe i want to mean it if the discourse is all and having a more limited Free Trade Agreement would be. Kind of pointed out is going to be problematic because it means more regulatory departure from what we have at the moment and the more regulatory departure that we have in terms of a standard marking what kind of food we eat even the longer its going to take the fresh throws out with it because that their 1st priority is going to be protecting the integrity of the Single Market. On the political side how would you react to a Hung Parliament who would you stop thats the right thing for the country in order to give time to look at projects again this was the most trumpeters for election everyone was shocked last night when the the exit poll came out i think most people were very small to a majority of parliament and even a few of a stage remain about a small majority and it would have been chaotic i mean now we are going to get brets it might think the rule problem is not going to walk away from an economic block this size its the largest economy in the world and the simple fact is you want to stay in the Customs Union the Single Market which the torch wont do or you have to do some really detail deal covering all the exports and imports it is i think going to be a nightmare a nightmare leading perhaps to a no deal outcome at the end of the transition period at 2020 x. Thats surely got to happen is i do think thats a distinct possibility because i think if the government stick to their guns if they stick to this notion they dont particularly have to abide by certain level Playing Field provisions and i think that he will have very little room to compromise in that regard simply because of the protect him Single Market issue lets pause for a minute more come back to both of you very shortly he has more on the days historic election results. Prime minister Boris Johnson perhaps unsurprisingly crowing about his partys performance in last nights election a very Strong Majority for them in terms of seats anyway and thats resulted in what he says is a strong mandate for him to finally get breaks it down with this mandate and this majority we will be able to do what. We pay attention. To is this this election means that getting brits. The irrefutable irresistible. Arguable decision. Of the british people. With this election i think we put an end to all those middle miserable threats of a 2nd referendum. And i say. I say 1st thing. I say respectfully to him to Austin Torreon friend in the blue star. Thats. Trying to put a sock in the megaphone the Prime Minister was also keen to stress that his agenda wouldnt just and perks that he wanted to of course as he said it is modify some income to invest more money into the n. H. S. 20000000000 he denied claims that he wanted to set off the n. H. S. As a result of any trade deal post breaks in particular with the us and also stating his commitment to one nation conservatism in the secrets of trying to bring the country together for the opposition parties its been a very difficult night in particular the liberal democrats that he to joe since before this election said that he hoped to be the Prime Minister well shes not even a member of parliament anymore she has lost her seat in the election and has actually subsequently stood down democrat leader let me say no. For millions of people in our country. These results will bring dread and dismay and people are looking for help. I still believe that we as a country can be warm and generous inclusive and open and that by working together with our nearest neighbors we can achieve so much more but it wasnt much better for the labor party either they secured over 10000000 votes however theyve only secured 203 seats of the worst performance since 1935 and many attributing it to the fact that the pope. Moved away from the 2017 manifesto pledge to respect the brigs referendum result and to move to pops a more remain position and whoever takes the Party Forward as they try to think of a new strategy to claw back the political ground its not going to be jeremy called in. Has so polarized and decided to fight d this in this country it is over written so much of the normal political debate and i recognize that has contributed to the results that the labor party has received to saving all across this country ought also make it clear that i will not lead the party in any future general Election Campaign i will discuss with our party. To ensure there is a process now of reflection on this result and on the policies that the possible take Going Forward and i will lead the party touring that period to ensure that discussion takes place and we move on into the. So quite a few losses on the opposition benches but all for because now we. Will be. There whether you can get a trade deal secured with the e. U. And also on take you out of the European Union by january 31st. Now lets take a closer look at how the results of shapes up with r. C. U. Case shot it was. Just one more vote to go but of course it wont make much difference as indeed the conservatives have won the general election with the greatest majority since 1987 as you can see the tories have come out on top securing 6364. 00 seats across the United Kingdom a great day for forest johnson a terrible one though for the labor party and Jeremy Corbin securing just 203. 00 seats which again marks the worst performance in 30 years so good evening then throughout the night for Boris Johnson of course he went into this general election with a minority government and now securing a majority of plus 47 also similarly a very good evening for the s. N. P. Leader nicolas sturgeon securing 48 of the seats there in scotland one of which one of the key moments came from when the s. N. P. Stole the critical crucial seat of liberal democrat leader joe swenson she of course had to resign as a result and indeed have party her colleagues not doing so well either just securing 11 seats across the United Kingdom much worse than they would have anticipated the d. P. Then at 8 which is minus 2 from last time round. A total annihilation a total wipeout but seats of course of the crucial figures this morning but taking a closer look at the voting percentage its still paints a rather bleak picture for the Labor Party Just on 32 percent Boris Johnsons tories out 44 percent this time. Election back in 2017 the gap was much more narrow in fact that was just 2 percent between the 2 rival parties of course really not looking too good for Jeremy Corbett but again interestingly the liberal democrats theyre on trial for sent 4 percent but it hasnt really equated to many seats for the dems but of course the s. N. P. Have made very huge gains across scotland which then of course brings into question the system of 1st process the post no doubt will be criticized over the next few coming hours if not days but again i want to give you a broader picture of the entirety of the United Kingdom to try and show you the trends where the balance of power really lies here we have this map 650 constituencies of course they were all up for grabs throughout the night and this morning each texican on this map represents one but what we can really see is these northern heartland areas the areas that were pro leave supporting areas traditionally we call them the red bull seats they are safe labor seats and strongholds in these areas but what we saw the trajectory was they were turning from red to blue throughout the morning a very difficult evening then for Jeremy Corbyn and the labor party well they have managed to do their quite well is still maintain and prevail there redwall in the london vicinity potentially because that is of course an area the capital did indeed vote remain in 2016 with the referendum is certainly reflected there but again meanwhile we have. The s. N. P. Really taking over lots of constituencies that in the hands of the s. N. P. We see the whole sea of yellow up at the top now its been a really dramatic evening if not morning now indeed the labor party has been particularly all full for the tour is there a very good day indeed one seat left but of course it wont make much difference. Fall off to the breaking through to the live reaction to portions we from europe. Is where we leave our ts Election Team in westminster for now you can continue watching their line of ongoing coverage on line r. T. E. Dot com well catch up with them next hour with more gas analysis and updates right here throughout the day. But for now lets move on to more world news the security situation in west africa is that curating further militants there have killed at least 71. 00 soldiers in one of the deadliest attacks on the countrys military in years and Islamic Militant terror group says it was behind the attack which also left 12 others injured and took place ahead of another postponed meeting between french president among them a call on west African Leaders over security in the region fronts insists its nato allies should take the situation seriously and provide more support dont quarter delves into the challenges parties faces in its former colony no. Africa has become a hotbed of terrorist activity as deadly attacks claiming hundreds of lives have spread like wildfire. Europe will have 2 swords of damocles over its had terrorism and kidnappings but also Illegal Immigrants since many are traveling through this region following one of the deadliest attacks in niger where 70 people were killed by islamists the big players have even postponed a big summit to reconsider their efforts the president. So friend sonnys year agreed to postpone the summit on operation block kanya on the joint chiefs on health force until early 2020 the 2 president s expressed their determination to remain united against terrorist groups and to redefine together in the coming weeks the political and operational framework for ensuring the security of the sahil countries france spends millions of euros and sends thousands of soldiers to control the situation there but with the regions poor infrastructure damage control is difficult to say the least france needs help. In this context and in light of the decisions that fronts will take a big engagement by its allies overseas something that would be quite positive in the fronts is involved in acting on behalf of everyone there are other budgetary questions the means but at least as important in our eyes is a contribution of the europeans to operations to the management of prices it would not be right to spend the 2 percent without havent actually done anything with the Armed Forces Just at the moment when prices require a response and its not the 1st time macron has been vocal over the issue the french president also criticized nato for bickering over defense spending instead of doing more to help the war on terror and sahil why does france care so much about sawhill as is almost always the case its about africas Natural Resources the border of mali and niger is lined with your rainy and minds are vitally important for french power stations of course its also dangerous if islamic fundamentalists grow an influence there they would only need to travel through libya for a direct line to the european continent and with sahil being half the size of europe its not easy to isolate terrorist cells as for paris well it shifts the blame to the african states which cant cope with these challenges alone it almost seems like afghanistan all over again deteriorating government control and growing influence from islamic radicals. Treating frances difficulties fighting terrorism in the somehow an american difficulties fighting terrorism in afghanistan those places are very had been to egypt from the vantage militants in both cases you have external powers trying to essentially stabilize the area is remotely in the real questions. About fitness and scope of those country whether its worth it to continue invest in some police in for an injury of these problems for some forces from abroad get involved in country not only due to altruism to combat the charges but for their own National Interest i think that you need not come out of intervention in mali in 2013 there may have been a false sense in france that it had a handle on this kind of terrorism so i think that france will increasingly try to get other western countries especially the United States in the u. K. And to ramp up their counterterrorism involvement. Or another every headline stories this hour a new enough to realize haitian bell has sparked protests across india where at least 2 people have been killed in the unrest the uk seeks to grant citizenship to immigrants who fled afghanistan bangladesh and pakistan before 2015 but controversially it includes all major religious groups except muslim. Us. Indias government argues that minorities in those countries are under threat and their populations are shrinking specifically it claims that pakistans non muslim minorities have to win gold dramatically since the late and fiftys where protesters say the bill is not only the scrivener tory but also on constitutional and the opposition has threatened to take the case to the Supreme Courts hundreds have joined a Hunger Strike in indias northeast where troops are being deployed on the internet shut down. There are some good aspects of the law. The indication of the law is actually is quite good. It basically wanted to do good my knowledge these. 33 neighboring countries namely. Bungler danish and im gonna start to be allowed to citizenship believe india. The problem with the problem is that those of you that minorities are not muslims they are hindus christians sikhs buddhists and other communities all modern slummy non muslim so as i said the intention is good because a large section of these persecuted by not minorities are distributed in different parts of india let me also point out that the cut off there is design but 1st 2014 or was it you did minorities who came before that did before design but the 12000 people dean dean so i think the intentions are very good i think this law is unconstitutional. I think it is illegal i challenge you this law in the honorable. And i am confident it will be struck down but. It is not a take on it was from stands for the government this. Is because the government wants to make this muslim issue today would this does not affect the suspects everybody if the government refuses to listen to the Supreme Court and we will live the streets of delhi in the streets of india every day we will burn copies of the law every day we will start a new one for. Mark mark and the start we will not d see this you know i think people need to be educated the people protesting dont necessarily understand what theyre even fighting i mean how is that different from religious fanaticism elsewhere in the world india as an independent democratic nation and i dont see why the us should have any say in that you cannot just attack india and say that it is discriminating against muslims it is a matter of numbers the sisters. There are so many more must know that we cannot allow them on and there has to be and its not about them being muslim its that they are such a large minority quote unquote that and india alone. We have 200000000 muslims muslims who are feeling persecuted within their own country perhaps need to go to a Muslim Country because if we as india whether its democracy where its successful economy allow this in pakistan and bangladesh we will be flooded with immigrants it were collapsing our economy. To the us were double trouble perseid on executive order with the goal of combating terrorism on College Campuses the order threatens to withhold federal funding to universities if they fail to take action against the problem. So we will not permit and jewish bigotry on our College Campuses if they want to do that its going to be extremely costly itll be amazing how quickly they stop. The move expands the 964. 00 civil rights to specifically prohibit discrimination against jews and already Racial Discrimination in programs that receive federal funds it targets the b. D. S. Movement to which boy comes good from territories occupied by israel in league 2nd of water how sparked outrage from pro palestinian supporters who believe it aims to silence their movement american antiwar activists are real gold scenes in some assault on peoples rights. This is it dangerous to attack our 1st amendment right to free speech and its an attack on students it will serve silence dialogue 8 result and it will serve. Well you didnt let it move it means that its going to be much harder explorer advocates for palestinian rights to organize on campuses what happens is that a school could now be designated as not protected its one of the bases its doing this. Congress right wing in congress has been unable. Ert is right yes legislation was that. I only meant it especially on all its. Executive. Knightly has nothing to do with it its about. Shutting down. A list you need right its not their. Right. Ok being focused stateside next will the democrats paid for their impeachment push against donald trump larry king is asking not a whole lot more besides and politicking in a moment. Im going to fulfill the repeated purposes apologise to the people and come on you know its all but be. Ready for a. Pretty good group. Now you want to work. No. All. 5 coming out my. Facebook and google started with a great idea and great ideals unfortunately there was also a very dark side. They are constructing a profile of you and that profile is real its detailed and it never goes away turns out that google is manipulating your opinions from the very 1st character that you type into the search bar it will always favor one dog food over another one comparative Shopping Service over another and one candidate over another they can suppress certain types of results diced on what they think you should be see if they have this kind of power then democracy is an illusion the free and Fair Election doesnt exist the more growth we give them the sooner were all. Are we in a countdown to impeachment the experts weigh in on this. Politicking on larry king is the impeachment of down jay trump the 43rd president of the United States and then the ability at this point and if so what impact will it have in 2020 songs about that with the Political Panel in the alex vogel previously served as chief counsel Senate Majority leader bill frist former general counsel for the national. Committee and david brown democratic strategist for moment the counsel to democratic senator patty murray on to congressional committees and they are both in washington d. C. Think anybodys mind is changed with the with the impeachment hearings and not so far. As you alluded to in the lead in i think peoples minds are pretty much made up and at least as far as the actual the house goes and their side of the impeachment process i think weve reached the stage of foregone conclusion and i really cant envision what any of these witnesses or other process between now and and the final vote in the house that could actually change anyones mind in a meaningful way david they say the senate is the judge of this now in a trial nobodys supposed to have a 3 opinion this moves the judges on the facts in front of them that can happen in a trial right. Not not not this trial larry youre right did ordinary criminal trial jurors or are. Are instructed to be as impartial as possible there
