Behind these breakthroughs and what values inform their design will shape the future of humanity and that is my point to you tonight my friends excellence is at stake is whether we bequeathing orwellian world designed for censorship and repression and contro or a world of emancipation debate and learning where Technology Threatens famine and disease but not our freedoms. 7 decades ago this General Assembly adopted the universal declaration of human rights with no dissenting voices uniting humanity for the 1st and perhaps the only time behind one set of principles and our declaration our joint declaration up holds freedom of opinion and expression the privacy of home and correspondence and the right to seek and impart information and ideas unless we ensure that new technology reflects the spirit i fear that our declaration will mean nothing and no longer hold so the mission of the United Kingdom and all who share our values must be to ensure that emerging technologies are designed from the outset for freedom openness and pluralism with the right safeguards in place to protect our peoples month by month Vital Decisions are being taken in academic committees company boardrooms and industry standards groups they are writing the rule books of the future making ethical judgements choosing what will or will not be rendered possible together we need to ensure that new advances reflect our values by design there is excellent work being done in the e. U. The commonwealth and of course the un which has a vital role in ensuring that no country is excluded from the wonderful benefits of this technology and the Industrial Revolution it is bringing about but we must be still more ambitious we need to find the right balance between freedom and controls between innovation and regulation between private enterprise and government oversight we must insist that the ethical judgments inherent in the design of new technology are transparent to all and we must make up boises more loudly in the standards bodies that write the rules. Above all we need to agree on a common set of global principles to shape the norms and standards that will guide the development of emerging technologies. And heres the good news i invite you next year to a summit in london wonderful city where it by the way it is not raining 94 percent of the time and where one stage when i was married london or shortly before we discovered that we had more mishmash starred restaurants even than paris the french somehow rapidly recovered by a process that i wasnt quite sure was entirely fair but we still have by far in the u. K. By far the biggest tech sector by far the biggest tech sector didnt take biotech it take many days made Technology Green tech every kind of tech in london the biggest tech sector anywhere in europe perhaps half a 1000000 people working in tech alone and i hope that you will come there and we will seek to assemble the broadest possible coalition to take forward this vital task building on all that the u. K. Contribute to this mission as a Global Leader in ethical and responsible technology. If we master this challenge and i have no doubt that we can then we will not only safeguard our ideals we will see among the limits that once constrained humanity and conquered conquer the perils that once ended so many lives together we will vanquish killer diseases eliminate family in particular and transform our citys success will depend now as ever on freedom openness and lurid formula the not only magic bits the human spirit but releases the boundless ingenuity and inventiveness of mankind and which above all the United Kingdom will strive to preserve added bonds excellence is a gentleman thank you very much your kind attention. Listening to russias Prime Minister virus johnson addressing the United Nations General Assembly to discuss the dangers of technological advances in the internet and spoke about the difficulties of trying to find a balance between freedom and control personal privacy and Public Interest while for more on this correspondent john how is right for us at the United Nations so china this was a fairly wide ranging speech then from Boris Johnson and how was it received i think i may have spied some amusement in the chamber as he spoke. Yes i suspect youre probably right anybody who thought to Boris Johnson was going to come out and talk about bricks it was certainly disappointed and im not sure anybody was quite ready for this exposition on the merits or otherwise of the advance of technology it was in some senses quite bizarre he painted a picture of a Technology Driven future a digital or solitaire in his of me he said over which we have less and less control click by click tap by tap your mattress will monitor your nightmares your fridge will be for cheese hes good with words Boris Johnson hes good with the crowd they would have been entertained and moved along by it but i suspect some scratching their heads by the end and with that of course Boris Johnson leaving the chamber he will be hurrying to a car and making his way pretty quickly to the airport for a flight back to london which has been brought well forward because of the events taking place there and really for Boris Johnson this must be about as far removed from the visit he had hoped to be paying to the General Assembly he had hoped of course until about a week a week and a half ago to be here with the world at his feet the worlds media at his feet this extraordinary platform from which to broadcast his vision of a prostate post briggss britain he wanted to woo investors hed hoped to seal a breakthrough deal or at least make progress on it as well he wanted to be instrumental in iran diplomacy and then suddenly at 6 am local time this morning all of that went up in a puff of smoke with that decision from the Supreme Court in london that he had acted unlawfully and as a say off he goes now to face argument again tomorrow with opposition m. P. s and leaders calling for his resignation and an enormous humiliation for Boris Johnson here in front of his colleagues the World Leaders just 2 months into the job. Live from. At the United Nations with that update well as china did mention paris johnson a well because in short his time at the u. N. Hes due to fly out very shortly after that address to the assembly now that was forced upon him by a Supreme Court ruling that declared that he acted unlawfully by suspending parliament the house of commons one hour resume on wednesday paul brennan reports. Outside the Supreme Court beyond demonstrators were in optimistic mood inside the judges delivered their devastating ruling with calm deliberation and issue where the Prime Minister Boris Johnson suspended parliament lawfully or simply to prevent parliament from holding his government to account the effect on the fundamentals of our democracy was extreme no justification for taking action with such an extreme effect has been put before the court the court is bound to conclude. That the decision to advise her majesty to perreault parliament was unlawful. Because it had the effect of frustrating or preventing the ability of parliament to carry out its constitutional functions without reasonable justification this case went to the fundamental issue of the very nature of democracy here in the United Kingdom and it was a stress test if you like of the separation of powers between the 3 branches of government but its conflict is far from over the outcome is a vindication for gina miller the campaigner who has forced the government for the past 3 years to uphold the law on bracks it. Today is not a win for any individual cause its a win for parliamentary servant the separation of powers and the independence of our british court. News of the courts decision prompted a standing ovation from delegates of the Opposition Labor Party conference where the party leader was on his feet at the time. The Supreme Court has Just Announced its decision. And it shows that the Prime Minister has acted wrongly in shutting down the demand for parliament to be recalled gathered pace the speaker of the lower house stepped in i have instructed the house so far it is to prepare not for the recall. The purgation was unlawful and these void to prepare for the resumption of the business of the house of commons. On these are you going to. Prime minister johnson received the news in new york where hes attending the u. N. General assembly he said he disagreed with the ruling but with respect to the midis that were going to get on and deliberative to the 31st yes of course part of it will have to come back but. You will respect that there was back in london that his position is now in question parliament will resume on wednesday morning it promises to be a tumultuous return paul brennan aljazeera the Supreme Court. To other news now and us democrats are opening a formal impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump over claims that he sought political help from ukraine now House Speaker nancy pelosi made the announcement after trying to phone call with ukraines president in which she discussed democratic president ial hopeful joe biden now trump admitted to withholding aid to ukraine ahead of that call but denied using it as political leverage the actions of the Trump Presidency revealed dishonorable fact of the president s betrayal of his oath of office betrayal of our National Security and betrayal of the integrity of our elections therefore today im announcing the house of representatives moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry and directing our 6 committees to proceed with their investigations under that umbrella of impeachment inquiry the president must be held accountable no one is above the law. Well trump reportedly wanted ukraines president to investigate joe biden and his son for corruption he says hes authorized the release of a transcript of that phone call with to me the lenski and denied any impropriety and reacting to pelosi is announcement from fired back on twitter calling the impeachment inquiry president ial harassment he lashed out at democrats for quote ruining the United Nations General Assembly with witch hunt garbage well for more on this we can speak to our correspondent in washington d. C. She had her tansey she had more reaction to hearing from trump and from elsewhere. Well theres a lot of anonymous briefing on the way all these there has been in the last few hours as you mentioned dont trumpet already offered to release the unredacted transcript off that phone call but the democrats said look thats not enough whats at issue here is well 1st of all that you would ask the ukrainian president for dirt on a potential political opponent for you know ahead of the 2020 election but also that you suppress or the white house suppressed a whistle blows complaint about the conversations and perhaps a pattern of behavior that dont trump was having with the ukrainians potentially so now in the last few hours weve been hearing the white house is actively considering releasing that whistleblowers complaint in some form or another perhaps also releasing the Inspector General who the whistleblower initially complain to use report on that complaint which certainly those outlets favorable to donald trump like fox news suggesting that might discredit the whistleblower in some way we dont know if thats all just spin but theres all this movement going on that might not just be the transcript we get in the next day oh sorry but also the whistleblower complaint on the Inspector General complaint and we hearing that the whistleblower him or herself may testify to Congress Perhaps by the end of the week so all thats going on meanwhile the white house is putting on a brave face on it and thats saying look this is mildness news this is what we wanted this is going to mobilize our base its what weve always wanted at a time when perhaps there might have been some wobbling among strongest base has now the Foreign Policy achievements the economy might be in trouble in the next few months this will let him get things back on track as regards a witch hunt that was already a Campaign Funding video ready to go as soon as nancy pelosi made a statement making that case that the democrats are out of ideas on how to beat donald trump and it was also a message we heard from the leader of the republicans in the house of representatives kevin mccarthy. Our job is to legislate not to continue to investigate something in the back when you cannot find any reason to impeach this president this election is over i realize 2016 did not turn out the way Speaker Pelosi wanted it to happen but she cannot change the laws of this congress she cannot unilaterally decide when a pietschmann inquiry what she said today made no difference of whats been going on its no different than what natalie has been trying to do. Its time to put the public before politics so she had a coffee there saying that this doesnt seem to change anything theres some confusion about the impeachment inquiry is that are already ongoing and where we are in this process. Right away once the dust settles after the initial excitement we were all going to go how does this change anything that there are as don suppose you mentioned the 6 squiers already underway which he says no will be under the umbrella of an impeachment inquiry with them you had mccarthy the talk about noblitt gerry now and hes the head of the House Judiciary Committee well the other week hed already announced an impeachment inquiry so i mean what does this all means that i mean were getting the sense that those committees findings will now go to the Judiciary Committee and then they will be thought they will be deliberative the poland the Judiciary Committee will will will not probably will recommend articles of impeachment we dont know how long this is going to take we dont know how big the remit is and anyway we dont really understand whats different from what was happening anyway except for the fact the stout does have nancy pelosi is premature on the proceedings which might give it more weight more heft especially both in the judicial proceedings from these various committees are trying to get information from the white house theyve had trouble in the past but now judges may look at all of this a bit more different a bit more expeditiously but also something that weve been hearing in the last few hours vicki from ron group of the intercept theres been some great work on this this you know we talk a lot about trumps talk so much about nancy pelosi is base theres been increasing anger amongst the base that the democrats have done nothing about core base and there are a lot of republican lot of democrats rather were saying after the summer break theyre under pressure to show that they are doing something or they might even be primaried in their seats at least this gives them a way of saying look we are doing something that might take some of the heat off the democrats whether whether it will actually lead is necessary to clear right now but there are political reasons for the democrats to be doing this even if it doesnt actually get anywhere any further depending on what happens in the next few days she had the that across developments for us in washington d. C. Thank you she had well lets take a look at how impeachment actually wax the lengthy process begins in the house which debates and votes on whether to bring charges against the president now if that person is successful at trial of sorts presided by the chief justice of the u. S. Supreme court is that have in the senate and then a 2 thirds majority vote is needed in that 100 Member Senate to convict and to remove a president now this has never happened. To find out a little more and delve into this process and speak to jeff hauser whos the executive director of the revolving door project at the center for economic and policy research and he joins us now live from washington d. C. Jeff whats the likelihood of impeachment proceedings actually starting here let alone impeachment itself i mean what weve heard today from pelosi is is a call for an impeachment inquiry. I think the impeachment inquiry is a legitimate hearing when the People Holding it actually means to hold it i think what weve seen here its a 4 is democrats experimenting with calling things impeachment related without really meaning it and certainly the leadership of the House Democrats nancy pelosi study hoyer and others were not genuinely in support of impeachment and so the media was covering impeachment inquiry more about democrats being in disarray and disagreeing with each other and this is really not a legitimate and meaningful hearing as opposed to taking it seriously youve seen dozens of new democrats come out in favor of pursuing impeachment and i think a
