President obama lost the state of arizona twice, each time by nine points. Its a very red state in president ial politics. So Hillary Clinton being down by four in arizona, while shes simultaneously leading in pennsylvania and ohio and iowa and New Hampshire and wisconsin, that is pretty good for the democrats right now. So ppps swing state polls came out last night. You may have seen them. But ppp has also done a new National Poll in the president ial race, which we have got exclusively right now and we are about to debut. You have not seen these numbers anywhere else. And these new National Numbers from ppp, they are okay for Hillary Clinton, but theyre not great. Nationally, the top line results, when they asked, generally speaking, if the election for president was today, would you vote for the republican or democrat . The top line question, Hillary Clinton is ahead by one point, 4544. If you add in minor Party Candidate choices from the Libertarian Party and the green party, then clintons lead goes from one point to four points. She leads him 4541, as long as the libertarian and green Party Candidates are included as well. So, big picture, any lead is better than no lead. But a lead this small, one point head to head, four points including everybody, thats a lead thats so small it may be worrying for the clinton camp. So again were debuting these numbers right now, the first time this data is being publicly released. This new National Poll will be compared this evening with the other poll that came out a few hours ago. Fox news has a poll tonight and that headtohead poll is better news for Hillary Clinton, shows her up over donald trump by six points. Heres the great thing, though, about having a first look at polling data specifically from ppp as we do tonight. Because ppp is sort of eccentric is not the right word. Out of the box, thats the right phrase. Theyre not afraid to think outside the box. Thats the way well put it. Ppp is the Polling Company that is most likely to ask burning, if weird, questions that real people actually talk about and actually worry about, even if no other pollster wants to go there. For example, i know quite a few republicans who have patiently explained to me, in recent weeks and months, that, yes, it is insane that their party nominated donald trump to be their president ial candidate this year. A lot of republicans have said to me, what do you expect . The american electorate has been driven mad. Insane by eight years of barack obama. What did you expect us to do . Anecdotally in my own life, ive had conversations with republicans along those lines, not just in recent months and weeks, even in recent days. Ppp, in this new National Poll, they called the question on that, literally. So leave Hillary Clinton out of it. Is it true that this whole donald trump mess that the republican partys gotten themselves into, frankly, its all obamas fault. Is it the repellant power of barack obama as president that has driven the electorate to donald trump . You dont have to worry about that or discuss that without facts among your friends because now ppp has asked the question. Quote, who would you rather was president barack obama or donald trump . Turns out it is barack obama by a small landslide. Barack obama by nine points. So attention all my republican friends, you can blame president obama for lots of things, you cannot blame him for donald trump. The country would much prefer barack obama to donald trump. Its just that republican primary voters decided that out of 300 million americans, this really was the man they most want to be the next president of the United States. That is on you, republican party, that is not obamas fault. Of course its not going to be obama versus trump in this years election. It will be Hillary Clinton versus donald trump. And in a clinton versus trump matchup, as opposite as those two candidates seem, as different as they are, the trump and clinton campaigns do have one shared challenge. And this new data that we have, exclusively from ppp tonight, shows that challenge very clearly. And its basically this. Both candidates, both donald trump and Hillary Clinton are really unfavorably viewed by most americans, both of them are. The proportion of voters nationwide who have an unfavorable opinion of donald trump in the new poll is 58 . For Hillary Clinton its 54 . And when unfavorable numbers are so bad for both candidates, maybe thats depressing, but you know what, its also Something Else. Because that is when you get cash money, jackpot polling data like this. This is truly amazing. Are you ready for what i believe is the greatest polling question yet of the 2016 race . Are you ready . Im going to read it to you verbatim. This is exactly how it was asked for how it was asked for this nationwide poll of registered voters that we have got for the first time here tonight. Are you ready . Here it is. I am quoting directly. If the choices for president were democrat Hillary Clinton, republican donald trump, or a giant meteor hitting the earth, which would you choose . The percentage of americans who would choose Hillary Clinton in that circumstance is 43 . Those who would choose trump, 38 , but the percentage of americans who would prefer a giant meteor to crash into the either instead of either of those two, that proportion is 13 of americans, which probably means the Libertarian Party should run a giant meteor careening toward the earth as their candidate because that might have a better shot than gary johnson at making it into the general election debates. Thats a really good number. 13. Only need 15 to get into the debate. My favorite part of this question, though, is actually the very last part of this result. A full 7 of americans say, given the choice of Hillary Clinton, donald trump, or a giant meteor hitting the earth, 7 of americans say, theyre not sure which they would prefer. [ laughter ] whos not sure about a giant meteor hitting the earth . Do you need to know more about the character of the giant meteor . Do you need to know exactly where its going to hit . Do you need to know whether the meteor has been endorsed by the nra . Is it prochoice . 7 of americans say theyre just not prepared to make the call between the meteor and either candidate. And you know what, that may be as good an artifact as we will ever get from pollsters about the truly bamboozling effect of this years remarkable president ial election. At least so far. Today Hillary Clinton did events and fund raisers in blue state, california. Her republican rival donald trump was also in a blue state, massachusetts this afternoon, did a fundraiser in boston, about which bostonians were not very pleased. After his boflton fundraiser, donald trump headed further north into another blue state, where barack obama won by 18 points the first time around and 15 points the next time. Donald trump after his boston fundraiser went to the great state of maine, where he was introduced as such. What a crowd this is. I think this is bigger than the Republican Convention a couple of months ago. I heard i heard Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren campaigning. You know Elizabeth Warren, right . Thats a rightwing radio host introducing a donald trump event in bangor, maine today. Just in case anybody wondered how the Trump Campaign was doing on the whole toning it down with the race stuff plan. The guy doing the war cry, making fun of native americans, then introduced the republican governor of the great state of maine, who is perhaps most nationally famous for claiming that one of maines big problems is black drug dealers coming in from out of state to impregnate white girls. Guys with the name of dmoney, smoothie, shifty, from connecticut, new york, they come up here, sell their heroin and go back home. Half the time they impregnate a young white girl before they leave. Instead of saying maine women, i said white women. If you go and im not going to apologize to the maine women for that. Because if you go to maine, youll see that were essentially 95 white. If you want to make it racist, go right ahead. Do whatever you want. I had to go screaming at the top of my lungs about black dealers coming in and doing the things that theyre doing to our state. Thats maines republican governor, paul lepage, who appeared with donald trump in maine today, and who thinks of himself evidently as kind of a donald trump kindred spirit. Thank you. Its a very great honor and a humbling experience to be up here today to introduce and to introduce you to the next president of the United States, donald trump. Many people say were a lot alike. Hes a little bit shy, but im working on him. What a group. What a group. So beautiful. So beautiful to see. Ill tell you. So beautiful to see. I want to thank our governor, because our governor i call him ours because hes a great, great guy. Respected all over the country and we really love it, thank you, paul. About that respected all over the country thing, heres Something Else that weve got exclusively tonight that you wont see anywhere else. Took us months to get this, but we finally did. Paul lepage is actually one of the least popular governors in the country. By last summer, the situation in maine, particularly around his governorship and his various gaffes and offending people, it got tense enough that there was talk of impeaching him last summer. In the middle of that impeachment scrum about paul lepage, he decided, you know what, never mind you with your impeachment, if you want me to go, ill just go. If the people of maine want me, ill do the job. If they dont want me, just ask me to leave, you dont have to impeach me. There was a woman who asked you to resign. There was 1. 3 million people. So far ive only got four people that have written me wanting me to resign. That was Governor Paul Lepage saying, just ask me to leave, you dont have to impeach me. He said only four people had written to him, demanding his resignation. If the people of maine want me to go, write me letters and ill go. We filed a freedom of information act request, asking to see if anyone in maine took him up on his offer. Asking a simple question, right, did the governor ever receive more than those four letters asking him to quit when he said publicly that he would quit if enough mainers told him that he should . It took paul lepages office nine months to answer that question for us. We were a little miffed. Nine months. How hard could this be to answer . We wanted to know how many people sent him a letter. You just have to count things that are already in your office. Why did that take so long . We got the letters and a couple people did write to him. Now we know why it took so long. And this is just the letters, it turns out, that came in, in the first month, after paul lepage asked for letters from the people from the state of maine to tell him if they wanted him to resign. By our count, more than 1,800 people, just in that first month, did actually take do you want me to keep going . Did take time to write to him and ask him to resign. Just in the first month after he asked. We dont even have the letters that came in after the first month. This is just what came in, in that first month. Its interesting. Going through them, they are heart felt letters, polite letters. There are a few rude letters. Theres a lot of handwritten letters. Most of them, though, are very short and polite and to the point. Heres one. Dear governor do we have this one . There we go. Dear governor, please resign. Weve pixelated the signature. Its a guy who signed his name, a resident of mid coast maine. This one from email, you have requested the opinion of the maine people in regards to you resigning as the governor of this state. My opinion is, a very strong yes. Thank you for allowing me to express my choice. And so, thank you, freedom of information act. Thank you, people of maine for being polite and mostly not obscene in your epic tide of instant disapproval of your governor when he asked what you thought. And republican president ial candidate donald trump may see a well respected governor, but take that with a grain of salt. From a candidate who thinks the place he needs to be campaigning right now, of all places, is the state of maine. Lots to get to tonight. Stay with us. Wish your skin could bounce back like.

Ataturk airport in istanbul, turkey, was open for business today. Look at these pictures. Remarkable pictures today, taken inside ataturk airport, by nbcs richard engel. This is just today, one day after a complex terrorist attack that killed 42 people and injured more than 230 people. An attack that today still left shattered glass and bullet holes and bomb damage in the International Terminal of that airport. But shop keepers who work in that terminal, they came back to work today and opened back up. They opened up, they cleaned up, got back to helping customers, amid the broken glass and bullet holes, one day after the deadliest terrorist attack on an airport ever. Ataturk is today just this remarkable case study in resilience. Resilience of a very basic, very human, very determined way. Lots more ahead tonight. Stay with us. The rest of the world does not get to vote in american president ial elections, but they do care. Pew Research Centre has released a survey from 15 other countries. They asked about the United States president ial election. Specifically where people have confidence that a President Donald Trump would be able to handle world affairs. The results are not pretty. In nearly half the countries surveyed, donald trump polls in the single digits, in terms of peoples confidence that he could handle world affairs. The greeks, for some reason, seem to be particularly dubious. Only 3 of greeks think that donald trump could be up to the job. Our friends the germans, the australians, pretty dubious as well. One of the places where mr. Trump actually fares the best is canada. In canada, only 80 of canada expressed no confidence in Donald Trumps capacity for global leadership. Globally speaking, thats actually a pretty good job. Our actual president was in canada today for a day of meetings with the canadian Prime Minister and the mexican president. President obama then became the first u. S. President since Ronald Reagan to address a joint session of the Canadian Parliament. Democracys not easy. Its hard. Living up to our ideals can be difficult even in the best of times, and it can be harder when the future seems uncertain. Or when in response to legitimate fears and frustrations, there are those who offer a politics of us versus them. A politics that scapegoats others. The immigrant. The refugee. Someone who seems different than us. We have to call this mentality what it is. A threat. To the values that we profess. The values we seek to defend. Its because we respect all people that the world looks to us as an example. President obama today speaking to a joint session of the Canadian Parliament about you know who. He did not mention donald trump by name but a significant portion of his remarks cautioning against trumpesque politics. Thanks to this new poll, we know how canadians feel about you know who, how they feel about donald trump. But thanks to the reception that president obama got in the Canadian Parliament today, it seems pretty clear how they feel about him too. Watch this. This is pretty incredible. Canadians and americans, allies and friends. Now and forever. Thank you very much. [ cheers and applause ] [ crowd chanting four more years ] what you were hearing there is the Canadian Parliament yelling four more years, four more years, for our president. A remarkable moment that seemed to catch president obama very much by surprise today. Lots more to cover tonight. Stay with us. So tonight, we do have some exclusive new reporting on a story that we have been following for a very long time. Its a story that we had a role in breaking it nationally for the first time. It has since become a national story. Tonight we are advancing that story. We have a Rachel Maddow show special report coming up tonight next that i think will make some news on its own and will satiate your curiosity as to what has been happening in flint, michigan, these past few months. Our special report is just ahead, stay with us. Can you actually love wearing powerful sunscreen . Yes neutrogena® ultra sheer. No other sunscreen works better or feels better.

Okay, it has been five months since we went to flint, michigan, to do our big town hall event there, to talk directly with people who have been living through the man made lead poisoning disaster that happened to the city of flint, because of a reckless mistake made by the administration of rick snyder, by state employees who reported directly to him. In flint, mothers and fathers told us directly about the skin issue rashes they had themselves. They told us about the everyday job of searching for Drinking Water for themselves and their families. It remains almost unreal that a good sized American City doesnt have Drinking Water. Its additionally unfathomable that they still dont today. The Snyder Administration poisoned the town and wrecked the pipes in the town more than two years ago. But in flint, that just means theyre in year three of this disaster. The injury in flint is vast and the recovery has been very, very slow. This is the reality of this American City. Poisoned at the hands of an administration that remains in power today, in the richest nation on earth, the Snyder Administration is still in power. But the americans who live in flint, michigan, they still cant drink their water. Their pipes still havent been replaced. But some things have changed in flint since we did that town hall. A few days ago, the epa announced that water filters fitted onto the faucets, they said they make the water safe to drink for everyone. There had previously been a federal warning in place that said it was okay for everyone else to drink filtered water but kids and pregnant women shouldnt. The epa said a few days ago, that kids and pregnant women can drink water from the tap in flint if that water is properly filtered. And you know, this isnt nothing. The ultimate goal in flint is still to replace the pipes that the Snyder Administration wrecked because those wrecked pipes are whats leaching lead into the water. But in the meantime, until that apparently politically impossible job is done, it would make life in flint easier if people could drink from the faucet at home, instead of having to get every drop of water every day out of a plastic bolth. But that instruction to use a filter, its not just to wave a magic wand and it happens. Its an endeavor to get filters on every faucet on every home, to make sure theyre properly installed, and to make sure theyre using the filter correctly and changing the fimter on time. They dont last forever. You have to change them out after a certain period of time. With 30,000 roughly occupied homes in flint, were talking tens of thousands of filters that need to be present, fitted, properly used and changed indefinitely. The health of flint now depends on that granular, complicated, housetohouse, faucet by faucet undertaking. As weve seen so often in flint, it is the people of flint who are taking on that gargantuan task themselves. God bless them. Over this weekend, some local volunteers brought our producer with them to see how this painstaking house to housework is going even now to try to save this poisoned town. Were in the neighborhood, making sure everybody has water filters and faucets. I dont have one. You dont have a filter . I mean, a filter . At all . You know, they said on the news last night you got a filter, you can start drinking that water, and i know theyre lying. There ability no way in hell you drink that water just that quick. [ laughter ] we went over a year of making koolaid for our son and for his friends, making coffee, cooking with it. So and theres no way to go back. So when you want to run the cold water through it, you turn it down like this. When you get that green light. So all you need is a replacement filter . Right. If its turned have it turn have the light turned red yet . Yeah. When the light turn red, you have to change the filter. Oh. I use bottled water when i make a dish when it comes to potatoes or noodles, i used bottled water. Filtered is filtered. They told us two years ago that the water was safe when they switched from the detroit water to the flint water. So the level of trust is not there. Do i see that changing . No. How do i know . Because every single day at our church, we are servicing a minimum of 150 to 500 and some cars per day. When we test, it was down to zero. So even knowing that, its hard, though, to just open the faucet and take a drink out of it. Because we were poisoned for so long. The trust is not going to be there, until we see the pipes dug up, replaced in the homes, hot water heaters are replaced in the homes. When we see that, the trust will come back. But not until then. And not until we stop with the theatrics of somebody coming in, drinking a glass of water. When they replace the pipes and the hot water heaters, then the trust will come back, not with these theatrics. What she means there, first of all, governor rick snyder, hauling away flint jugs of water to drink at home and in his office and then president obama last month, drinking a glass of flint water when he took a visit there himself. Even as life for thousands of families in flint is still lived one bottle of water at a time. You heard a bunch of people say there, they do not trust the water for more than washing dishes, taking showers. Theyre not giving it to their kids. They tell us they were poisoned for so long while everybody in authority told them it was safe, that now, frankly understandably, they feel like they cant trust the water and they cant trust what they are told about the water. Not until the pipes that were ruined, that have been putting the lead in the water all this time, not until the pipes come out of the ground and new pipes take their place. The good news in flint, finally, in year three of the crisis, they have finally sent flint actual money to dig up and replace the first few thousand of the 9 or 10,000 pipes that might need replacing. When the city asked contractors to bit on doing that work, the initial estimates were much, much, much higher than flint was expecting. Flint officials met this week with contractors again, trying to get a better deal for the city. They asked the contractors to submit new bids by tomorrow. Presumably what theyre hoping for is more affordable bids. Just as we were told in flint this weekend, flints mayor karen weaver knows she has to get those pipes out of the ground. She has to get new pipes into flint if people are ever going to trust their water again. Its an enormous job, and forgive me, but she is not helped at all in that job by the stubborn refusal and the excusemaking and the inexcusable, inexplicable, infuriating delay by state lawmakers and the governor and congress, to help get the enormous job done. Yeah, no hurry, right . The people of flint did not bring this on themselves. They didnt do anything wrong here. Through note fault of their own, they were poisoned by their States Government screwing something up. But yet its still basically on them. Its on Flint Residents themselves to go door to door, even now, to find old people who still after all this time dont have a water filter on their faucet, to tell people how to change their water filters that never have. Its still on Flint Residents themselves to figure out if they can get the pipe replacement done. You know, sorry we poisoned you, flint, now you figure it out. The irony was not lost on flint this week when the water in a Congressional Office in d. C. Tested a little bit high for lead. Not toxic waste high the way it happens in flint, but a little higher than recommended. Congressional staffers were notified they would be getting bottled water immediately. One congressman from florida is demanding answers stat, asap, this is an emergency. When the threat of disease in your coffee cup, it grabs your attention. Back to the crisis in flint, the New York Times editorial asks if the governor wouldnt do what it takes to fix, the army corps of engineers should be sent in. When the work is done, send the bill to the state of michigan. They did it, they should pay for fixing it. If they dont have the will to do it, the country will get it done and bill the state of michigan. At the time, i think a lot of people thought the paper might be getting ahead of things. But were now in year three of the flint lead poisoning crisis and the pipes are still in the ground with no one trusting the new promises about the filtered water. And donations of bottled water drying up. Local pastors handling donations of water, say their only solution is for people to pray for some way out of this. Since the politicians cant fix it, maybe god can. Bottled water is drying up. No idea when flint will have plain, safe water out of the tap like the rest of the country and like they used to have, with some families just now getting their first filters, with countless others getting them fit properly, or are told for the first time when they need to change the filters, three years into this. And the whole country, led to believe by the initial flurry of Media Attention, that flint got saved. At least a little bit. With those doortodoor bottled water deliveries. Remember that, got all the Media Attention months ago . The state never got it together to do that again. Except for that one week when every media in the country was paying attention to flint. In front of the cameras, they arranged doortodoor deliveries for that one week and then they never did it again. What happened in flint is not flints fault. What happened in flint was done to flint by their state government. Looking at how hard Flint Residents have fought for themselves and what they have been through and how tough they are, i would not put it past the people of flint to get their own town fixed on their own. But for now, not fixed. Nobody is sending the army corps of engineers. Anyone checked your filter for you, sir . Oh, do you not have a filter yet . Just tonight, the local kelly medical society in Genesee County announced that they think pregnant women and Young Children should not drink the water, even if it is through a filter. The doctors are worried about random lead floating around in flints water system from its destroyed pipes which havent been replaced. So county level are warning that pregnant women, nursing moms and young kids, do not drink the filtered water again, even though the epa said they could. Meanwhile, the pipes are rotting in the ground through another summer right now. I wish i had better news to report about flint, but i dont. Its infuriating. Im alex trebek.

This week marks one year since the Supreme Court decided it was unconstitutional to block gay people from getting married. That was a year ago. But still in the last couple days, the great state of mississippi felt compelled to tell his Court Personnel and court clerks that they do actually have to treat gay people like other people when they come in to get married. It takes a while. Even after a nationally applicable ruling about what is constitutional is what is not constitutional. Even a really clear national ruling, it takes a while to ricochet around the country. It takes a while for unconstitutional laws to get challenged and for them to fall. But inevitably, in state after state, fall they do. Fall they must. Even in mississippi. And that process, which weve spent a year going through on civil rights, that process is about to play out on abortion rights. Two days ago, the United States Supreme Court ruled unequivocally that two of the benchmark measures that republican legislatures and governors have implemented over the past decade to block access to abortion and shut down clinics, those measures are clearly unconstitutional. Just in the past five years, more than 160 clinics have been shut down in red states across this country. Well, starting now in fits and starts, but starting now, some of those laws are about to start falling. Which ones fall first . Which ones are already going or gone . And how is this going to go from here on out . Joining usnorthup. Shes president and ceo for the center for reproductive rights, which spearheaded this ruling this week, which brought this case that has resulted in this landmark change for abortion rights jurisprudence. Nancy, congratulations. Thanks for being here. Thank you. Are you i imagine that youre very pleased with the ruling. Did you have any idea it was going to be this sweeping . We thought it should be, because we thoughts the facts were with us, the law was with us, but we are over the moon. I mean, this is a complete and total win. It changes the tide. It pushes back on what weve seen, the hundreds of laws that have passed. These restrictions on access to abortion that have been shutting down clinics. And so, you know, this is day one of turning around exactly what youre saying. Were going to make sure that these laws get off the books. Obviously, the texas laws directly are struck down immediately. What should we look for in terms of pacing . Do you have in mind sort of a first tier, second tier, third tier in terms of vulnerable laws or laws that are clearly unenforceable now and sort of what the timing will be . Well, weve already seen, you know, right now, in effect. You know, mississippi was trying to get their law has been politicked, one of their trap i laws, theyre trying to get the Supreme Court to review that. They said, no. Wisconsin, same thing. The Supreme Court said no. And the Alabama Attorney general dropped their ability, or their decision that they were going to try to defend their trap law there. So youre already seeing action. There are a lot of cases that are going on around the nation. I mean, we have, over a dozen cases that are going on now. Were going to be right back into those courts saying, hey, heres the new ruling from the Supreme Court, and you need to follow it. And were going to be looking across the nation to see what else we need to be suing on. And its not just about filing lawsuits, because its also about the public putting pressure on their elected officials. They now have a clear decision that says this tactic of passing socalled, you know, health and safety laws, was totally bogus. And they can you know, even this year, before the decision, the oklahoma governor didnt veto did not sign a law that had been passed in that state, because of the pressure that was put on, even an antichoice governor the oklahoma. So its important for us to go in court, but its also important for people to look at whats happening in their state and say, enough is enough. Part of the reason i raised the allegory of the samesex marriage ruling is because i think about the bar around those issues. I think about gay and lesbian legal advocacy groups. I think about the willingness of big expensive law firms to do pro bono work and put their associates working on cases like that, civil rights cases. Are there institutional or structural challenges for the reproductive rights bar, for Legal Advocates in this field, if you are going to now be pursuing youre going to be pushing on an open door, but you may need to be bringing cases in dozens of states around the country and all of these different kind of laws and figure out which trap laws are actually susceptible to this ruling. Right. Well, what has been a sort of benefit of going to the brink at the Supreme Court at this time, and luckily, again, we were saved from the brink, is that we have had unbelievable support from the private bar. So, you know, there were 45 amicus briefs, friends of the court brief, bringing perspectives into the court. And the majority of those were filed by, you know, major leading law firms in the United States. So theyre ready for the challenge. They were excited about being part of this case. And so were going to have the firepower to be able to go after these state laws. Nancy northup, president and ceo for the center for reproductive rights, which is the prime mover that made this happen in the court this week. You really did, you not only changed jurisprudence on this, you absolutely changed decades of political trajectory on this issue with what you did this week. Congratulations. Well, with thank you. Good to see you. Thanks. Thank you. All right. Stay with us. Well be right back. Anyone with type 2 diabetes knows how it feels to see your numbers go up, despite your best efforts.

As my right thournl friend has said i certainly join my honorable friend. The honorable gentleman is right. David cameron was in the house of commons today. As you might imagine, there were several questions for him. But it all seemed very quintessentially british, very civilized. And then this happened. I thank the Prime Minister for that answer. Last thursday, mr. Speaker, was a rejection of the status quo. A status quo that clearly isnt delivering. There are now 13. 5 million People Living in poverty in britain. The Prime Minister has two months left. Will he leave a onenation legacy. Where i would agree with the right honorable gentleman is, of course, we need to do more to tackle policy. We need to do more to spread wealth and opportunity. But to try to pretend that last thursdays vote was a result of the state of the british economy is complete nonsense. We all have to reflect on our role in the referendum campaign. I know the honorable gentleman says he put his back into it. All id say is i would hate to see him when hes not trying. Things from there, uh, escalated, after Labor Party Opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn pressed the Prime Minister to apologize to british children and families living in poverty. There are 300,000 fewer people in relative poverty since 2010, half a million fewer people in absolute poverty since 2010. Look, if hes looking for excuses about why the side he and i were on about the referendum, frankly, he should look somewhere else. And i have to say to the honorable gentleman, he talks about job insecurity and my two months to go. It might be in my partys interest for him to sit there. Its not in the National Interests and i would say, for heavens sake, man, go. British Prime Minister David Cameron is himself going. He announced his resignation last week in the wake of the leave the eu vote. And then he moved the timetable for him leaving from october up to september.

More than twothirds of his own Leadership Team quit in a span of just three days. Members of his party in parliament took a though confidence vote on Jeremy Corbyn as their leader yesterday. The vote was devastating. 172 votes against him, 40 votes for him. For him to stay on as labor party leader. Despite that, though, he might not be going. He released a statement after that vote saying, quote, i was democratically elected leader of our party for a new kind of politics by 60 of labor members and supporters. And i will not betray them by resigning. His Leadership Team wants him gone, his second in command has called on him to resign, the leader of his country just yelled at him to go, for heavens sake. He says he is not going. But he says, i wont betray them by resigning. But what if they quit him, though . At the end of the Prime Ministers question time today, Prime Minister David Cameron drew that very distinction. Ive never felt greater support from my party and im leaving. And ive never seen an Opposition Leader with less support, and hes staying. Its a very as you know, as someone about to enter the political graveyard, perhaps i could misquote my favorite band and say, lets meet at the cemetery gates. Five points for the smiths reference. I dont know how they do that at question time. But at 7 00 a. M. Tomorrow, well know who the candidates are for Prime Minister. Well know who e candidates are for Prime Minister.
