Decades he says that the only way that things will be stopped this military operation will be stopped would be if those Kurdish Forces dropped their weapons and withdrew child stratfor there watching developments for us on the tacky syria border thank you for that update charles well on to other global news and the Northern IrishPolitical Party which backs Boris Johnsons conservatives has dealt another blow to the Prime Ministers hopes of a rex a deal the Democratic Unionist Party has released a statement saying it cannot support Boris Johnsons current plan hes due to present that proposal to either leaders in a crunch summit in the coming hours theyre trying to negotiate a deal for the u. K. His departure on october 31st if an agreement isnt approved johnson is obliged by law to ask for another delay while lawrence lee joins us now live from brussels with more lawrence how much of a setback is this for johnson does this skep any chance of a deal. Yeah look i mean if you cut through all the noise from journalists over the last couple of days about a deal being within reach and frankly with half a brain cell that have told you that the democratic unionists who is opposed as you say to be the allies of the conservative party in Northern Ireland can never entertain a situation in which a trade border with the European Union is put in the sea between the island of ireland and the rest of the u. K. Because for them it makes it feel like Northern Ireland is closer to the republic of ireland and therefore to United Ireland than the rest of the u. K. And theyve always said this and the thing to remember ultimately is if Boris Johnson wants to get a deal through parliament thats a great here hes got to get the support of the t. V. Hes got to get the support of the brics hardliners in the conservative party who take their lead from the d. P. Hes got to get the support of all the conservative moderates who hate this deal because they say its worse than stories amaze old one and he sacked all of them 21. 00 of them and hes got to get the support of some labor m. P. s on the opposition as well and so its just inconceivable that the European Union is going to sign anything off that they think isnt going to get through parliament and so yes it does look very much doomed at the moment johnson supposed to be here in 4 hours time and the thing that frustrates the European Union more than anything is the continued insistence from the conservative party that its the European Unions fault that theres no brics it deal when clearly its the fault of the conservative party for not understanding itself what kind of bracks it wants and certainly the mood here in brussels is one somewhere beyond exasperated. The media may be absorbed with the intricate diplomatic footwork involved in helping the u. K. Out of the European Union but here the concerns are simpler and far more enjoyable the hockey club is home to the children of british workers as well as belgians dutch and many others who enjoy the benefits of a united europe the kids end up speaking several languages and learn what its like to live abroad kathleen a belgian businesswoman with interests across western europe speaks for many who cannot understand what has happened to attitudes in the u. K. And shes sick to death of the whole thing it would be better if there would be a real part of you just like the others have always been the sort of exception when youre just playing along like all other countries. And if they can join in do you think it would be better if they just got out a thing at least its clear yeah yeah european argument for the u. K. Not leaving is obvious enough they view it as economic and political suicide but theres a huge amount of cynicism too if there is one single emotion that people in places like this feel about brecht city its bewilderment really that the u. K. Might not want its children to enjoy the advantages that these kids have but as well as that there is a genuine sense of the british people were sold a law i over the advantages of leaving the European Union the misleading promises of the Referendum Campaign about how much money the u. K. Gives your ip the untruths about turkey joining the e. U. Or the plan for a European Army inflammatory posters about the u. K. Being invaded by Asylum Seekers all of us have viewed here as fake news that infected the minds of the public. But this information Monitoring Group is now lumping the u. K. In with hungary and poland as holmes of untrustworthy information there has been a lot of lies either by just not understanding how the e. U. Works and how e. U. Membership works but also intentional lies and when information is intentionally misleading we call it this information the other objection is about the brics it claims as an independent u. K. Will reclaim an identity lost to europe this politician who campaigns for flemish rights inside belgium doesnt believe it i am feel flemish and i will be flemish for the rest of my life and i have you think british people will feel more british if they leave i dont know you i think you can be british and european at the same time like people can be german and european british and european italian french and european its a bit and Different Levels in identity. There are certainly plenty of western europeans who regard the u. K. As a lost cause already and i think in political terms its gone if they hold hope for anything its perhaps that people are still able to get along to brick sets and frankly many im not sure even if. So given this bilious atmosphere in the next anything change the next 4 hours see why it should Boris Johnsons got to come here and say to the other 27 members of the European Union look just give me a little time to show extension because i promise youll be able to get all these warring factions inside the conservative party and parliaments on boards together but you know theyve been living this not match the last 3 and a half years they cant see any real reason at this point why the European Union should believe it. Play the beginning of a long day for. Live updates throughout the day and thats thank you. Postell ahead on aljazeera.
