As protesters marched on westminster politicians returned from the summer recess poised to push new legislation through parliament to block always johnson ring that. A number of m. P. s including prominent politicians in johnsons own conservative party have rebelled against the government and united with opposition m. P. s to force johnson to delay breaks it is the default legal position is the u. K. Will leave the e. U. On the 31st of october m.

P. s voted to take control of Parliamentary Business thought it could start forest allowing them to begin debating the creation of new legislation on wednesday if m. P. s do pass a bill to prevent a no deal johnson says hell have no choice but to push to hold a general election possibly on october the 15th if hes going to do more and to stop negotiations and to compel im not the point of this delay to brits potentially for years and that would be the only way to resolve this i can confirm that we are tonight tabling a motion under the fixed parliament. There is no consent in this house to leave the European Union without a deal. No majority for no deal in the country. The defection of one conservative m. P. To the opposition liberal democrats means johnson no longer has a majority in parliament by voting against the government of the conservative party rebels have effectively ended their political careers the bill will need to go before the upper house the house of law.

The battle lines are drawn the government and parliament are fighting for the right to determine britains breaks of future. Parker aljazeera london john hall has more now from westminster. Well a humiliating defeat certainly this for the fledgling government of bush johnson and just as that result was announced in the house of commons a voice from the other side of that has spiked up not a good start boris and certainly this majority of 27 a bigger number than anyone expected to be diesel lections among the 16 or so tory m. P. s who voted against their own government and that number suggesting that the legislation at the heart of this motion will also likely make its way successfully through parliament to remind you that is there just nation that would force Boris Johnson to go to the e. U. And ask for a further delay to breaks it beyond october 31st till january 31st in terms of the proposed legislation if hes unable to get a deal between now and the end of october and associated with all of this the crucial question now of a general election voters johnson made this vote of confidence issue the vote against the government therefore a vote of no confidence he has lost during the course of the day hes flimsy majority one m. P. For the billy defected to the liberal democrats and he has now put on the order paper for wednesdays business a motion calling for the dissolution of parliament to pave the way for an election leaving aside the question of whether backbench m. P. s will even allow that motion through the problem hes got is that it requires a 2 thirds majority and labor has said they will not vote for an election until this legislation preventing no deal makes its way all the way through parliament so the possibility exists on wednesday that the government could be defeated yet again both on this legislation and only to own coal for a general election. Well ahead of the vote there were street protests across the u. K. One of them took place just outside parliament and the heywood was there. Well this protests really goes to show you that this is no longer just a means to you frank said or no deal breaks it it is about austerity it is about Boris Johnson and it is also about the future of britain what you hear a lot here the driving force for getting people out onto the street is the word democracy they say that the punk suspension of parliament is simply undemocratic one wasnt told me that they believe that Boris Johnson is simply trashing the democracy will that voice is behind for that very loud down the road there is a counter demonstration taking place of people who believe the proxy is a good idea it just goes to show that 3 years more you 3 years after the referendum to this issue is still so divisive alex to reuters a professor at Birmingham City university and director of the center of a briggs it studies he says its unlikely that Boris Johnson will be able to regain control of the situation without calling a general election. It has to make it for passage through the commons and then a cool state of absolute last government marks onto a bus trip. For that so i think its quite likely that the bill passed and the originators of the bill relief that it could become move on next monday now the labor of course it may creep he created in germany and said so today that labor would not. Call her an election a messy excess the atmosphere and your. Strategy so go under. Because he needs to be in place to support its request for an exit route in the absence of her own saying no if you dont take it off the table he is not blocking to get that support we have and that would lead me on for how about against the rule of parliament replacing contempt for parliament it would be at the same societys current interest Prime Minister and the government then when for sure if youre a no confidence motion Hurricane Dorian is slowly moving closer to the u. S. South and leaving a trail of destruction in the bahamas its weakened but is already causing strong gusts of winds in the state of florida on sunday and slammed into the bahamas as a category 5 hurricane 7 people have been killed by the Prime Minister warns the death toll could rise aerial footage recorded of an acoa island shows the devastation caused in marsh harbor one of the 1st places to be hit. And the gallagher reports from florida. As Hurricane Dorian edges away from the bahamas a clearer picture of its devastating power is emerging grand bahama abaco island were hit hardest with storm surges and powerful winds this is now a humanitarian crisis hampered by the storm slow path through the region continued heavy rains and high winds mean the true extent of the damage may not be known for days but early reports suggest the rescue and recovery operation will be huge we also understand that about 62000 people across the 2 islands will need access to clean Drinking Water its not an unfamiliar thing to say in a disaster but when theres no water after a disaster that can have serious secondary impact so that will be a priority not just for the red cross but for the government and for the u. N. System the red cross says at least 13000. 00 homes have either been severely damaged or destroyed rebuilding will be a long process and saving those stranded by one of the most powerful storms recorded is a priority you know metaphor for the all the like you see. You when you. Love for. The sparking a full story and now threatens the u. S. East coast where preparations evacuation orders and warnings have been in place for days the storms predicted path shows no landfall in florida but a Cape Canaveral nasa is moot sensitive equipment as the storm edges closer georgia and the carolinas remain on high alert and many residents have heeded warnings to prepare for the worst and hoping that by being so early with our profer asians they will all be in very we will not have needed to do much of floridas east coast remains a hurricane watch in there is still a danger of high gusts of wind storms coming in from the Atlantic Ocean but if the track stays as it is predicted the storm should be about 170 kilometer. Shows even if it makes its way up to georgia and the countdown is on its potentially good news for millions of people but everyone is being warned not to get complacent. In the next few hours and days much needed resources will pour into the bahamas even for a nation used to dealing with powerful hurricanes this is an unprecedented situation. Sort of kirbys a Public Relations executive and bahamas resident she gave us an account of what happened when the house began to flood. The vacuum wait 530 yesterday it started flooding it came in like ive never seen water come in before we had pretty much 15 minutes to get out weve never had flooding in the area that were in were in a safe zone so we were ok what happened was the tidal surge that they expected that might come on the south side came on the north side because it sat on us for so long and the 67 foot surge that took out a place where i live near arden forest which never has any problems like this so its flooded multiple homes and we all basically had to just get out it was terrifying and then wait for our family we got in the back of a car and we pushed the car out it wouldnt start but we physically pushed it then we went through the dogs and went back and got dogs and we made it out in force and we let the cat the house is still underwater now on day 2 and. Theyre still there where we got our lives and we cant get near the house right now but were good luckily we have friends who have put in an apartment that was an available on the beach and its actually on the south side of the island so its fine friends have already offered homes people are being amazing in the Disaster Relief fund starting up all over and ive got a cousin in florida where people are preparing for the storm he sent us this update from time to snow. Dorns about 170 kilometers east of our location here it is continuing in a northwesterly direction so getting dangerously close to this coastline and moving at around 10 kilometers an hour which is much faster than it was moving when it was over the bahamas when it stalled for about 36 hours forecasters say that eventually this storm will take a short north taking it even further away from the coast credit officials and not just the state but also georgia and the carolinas are telling people do not get complacent at this point because you can see the conditions right now and this is getting stronger all the time so most people have heeded the warnings they have made their preparations and they cannot yet breathe a sigh of relief until this days long event is over and with the storm moving so slowly it will take some time and in fact its now actually larger but it was before. Most of the coming here on the news hour including south africas president finally breaks his silence on a time some foreign businesses in this country. Theres a new twist in the saga of an Iranian Oil Tanker that was blacklisted by the United States and its port well find out which players and made it through to the last 4 of the u. S. So thats all supposed. To the war in yemen now all parties in the conflict including the u. S. France and britain may be involved in the war crimes thats according to a report from the u. N. It accuses the saudi and iran tonight coalition of killing civilians with air strikes and deliberately denying them aid even though the country is on the brink of famine nor blood money hasnt. Been an. Indiscriminate killings child rape and using starvation as a weapon of war these are the findings of a group of United Nations experts who investigated the war you havent. The parties to the conflict in yemen are responsible for an array of Human Rights Violations and violations of International Humanitarian law some of these violations are likely to amount to war crimes. Its the 2nd report by a group of eminent experts who say the u. S. Britain and france may be complicit in war crimes by arming and providing intelligence to the saudi u. A. E. Coalition. Especially so in yemen says west some bombs a consistently being used by the coalition the problem with this how do the americans and all those who would match them like the United States they ignore the dimension of the warsaw short of talking to iran short of probably mitigating the tension between the iranians and the americans the arenas and the saudis i think those happening in in yemen is only a proxy for probably a bigger game and why the game but the experts say there are no clean hands when it comes to the involvement of all the warring parties that includes hoti rebels the Yemeni Government forces supported by saudi arabia and the United Arab Emirates they have targeted hospitals ports water facilities markets farms and of restricted the delivery of humanitarian aid. The u. N. Experts also accuse iran of backing the violence committed by the one piece one of the most devastating airstrikes targeted a Wedding Party in 2015 killing at least 130 people. And in august last year at least 40 children were killed when a saudi u. A. E. Coalition air strike hit the pass in solder. The experts are also concerned the war has taken another complex turn as the saudi backed government and the u. A. E. Back separatists in the south of vying for control of yemen 2nd city aid and parties to the complete. Seem incapable of even a breen amongst some. As to the way. The un describes the war as the worlds worst humanitarian crisis and is calling on all parties the conflict including western countries to be held accountable to lure about him on the out as there are or syrian ally demi is a yemeni activist an assistant professor at Michigan State university she says the report reinforces the need for the u. S. To stop supporting the saudi a morality coalition. A report like this is really important and highlights the urgency of extricating ourselves from this war in yemen but it also just repeats what we already know that the people of yemen are suffering at the hands of multiple countries multiple actors and they continue to be bombed in their homes in their schools in the hospitals in their weddings they continue to be denied aid they are under blockade the airports continue to be shut down so it just highlights the urgency of really finally moving away from supporting the Saudi Led Coalition well they are on completely into intricate to this Saudi Led Coalitions Bombing Campaign in yemen the saudis and the iraqis dont manufacture their own weapons they dont train their own soldiers they dont tell recently they werent refueling their their jets mid air so theyre relying on us and you cant friend shall weapons and intelligence and military support extensively they will not be able to continue waging war to this extent in yemen without the complete backing of u. S. And u. K. Weapons and intelligence it absolutely should be an election issue senator Bernie Sanders has led the fight to war and our ending the u. S. Involvement in the war by passing the war powers resolution weve seen a bipartisan support in the house in the senate for this act unfortunately was vetoed by President Trump who continues to violate the constitution this war it goes against the constitution he is not allowed to continue waging this war without congressional support yet he still manages to do that both he and the child and the Obama Administration have been violating the constitution in this war so i think it absolutely should be in a Campaign Issue and every candidate running for president should outline very clearly their plan for ending the war in yemen and they should be held responsible toward ending the war in yemen right away not one of the Worlds Largest retailer says it will stop selling ammunition for hung guns on military style weapons across the United States as a response to a series of Mass Shootings walmart which is also the largest arms seller in the u.
