>>> SUSPENDING PARLIAMENT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.
ACCEPTABLE. ALL THE PRIME MINISTER IS DOING
IS A SMASH AND GRAB ON OUR
DEMOCRACY TO FORCE THROUGH A NO
DEAL.
DEAL. WHAT’S HE SO AFRAID OF?
>> WELCOME BACK.
THAT WAS THE LABOR PARTY LEADER
CONDEMNING BRITISH PRIME
MINISTER BORIS JOHNSON’S EFFORTS
TO SUSPEND PARLIAMENT AHEAD OF
THE TED LINEDEADLINE.
FAST TRACKING THE DEPARTURE
WITHOUT A DEAL IN PLACE.
IT’S JOHNSON WHO REQUESTED
PARLIAMENT SUSPENSION,
PARLIAMENT SUSPENSION, TECHNICALLY QUEEN ELIZABETH WHO
HAD TO APPROVE THIS REQUEST
WHICH SHE DID.
WITH ME FROM LONDON IS MATT
BRADLEY.
BRADLEY. THIS FEELS LIKE, I’M TRYING TO
UNDERSTAND BORIS JOHNSON
CALCULATION HERE.
CALCULATION HERE. IT FEELS LIKE HE DID SIGN A
POLITICAL DEATH WARRANT FOR
HIMSELF GOING FORWARD.
MATT.
MATT. >> I MEAN THAT’S WHAT THE
OPPOSITION HOPES.
OPPOSITION HOPES. JEREMY CORBIN IS READY TO LET
HIM HANG ON THIS.
HE SAID HE WOULD TRY TO MOVE FOR
A VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE.
DOWNING STREET KIND OF SNICKERED
AT THAT.
AT THAT. TRY, YOU’RE NOT GOING TO WIN.
IF YOU WIN THE NO CONFIDENCE
VOTE YOU’LL NOT HAVE THE TIME TO
CONVENE A NEW UNITY GOVERNMENT
BEFORE WE SEND YOU PACKING HOME
TO START A NEW SESSION LATER IN
MID-OCTOBER.
MID-OCTOBER. ONLY A FEW WEEKS BEFORE THAT
BREXIT DEADLINE.
BREXIT DEADLINE. BORIS JOHNSON IS THUMBING HIS
NOSE AT THE OPPOSITION BUT
MEMBERS OF HIS OWN PARTY.
IT WAS BREXITERS DON’T JUST FORM
MEMBERS OF THE CONSERVATIVE
PARTY.
PARTY. A LOT OF THEM WERE VERY MUCH
OPPOSED TO BREXIT.
THE MAJORITY WERE OPPOSED TO
BREXIT.
BREXIT. >> HERE THEY ARE CALLED NEVER
TRUMPERS.
TRUMPERS. I THINK THERE NEVER BREXITERS.
>> THEY WERE EXACTLY THE SAME
WAY FP
WAY FP WAY.
WAY. >> RIGHT LEANING PARTY.
BORIS JOHNSON ASKING FOR THIS
POWER TELLS ME THAT NEGOTIATIONS
DID NOT GO WELL WITH MERKLE LAST
WEEK AND DID NOT GO WELL WITH
MACRON.
MACRON. >> A LOT OF POEMEOPLE WILL TELL
BORIS JOHNSON NEVER HAD ANY
INTENTION OF NEGOTIATING.
A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD SAY THAT
BORIS JOHNSON SAID I’VE BEEN
WORKING ON A PLAN AND TRYING TO
COME UP WITH SOMETHING AND IT
HELPS TO THINK OF THIS AS A
RESET.
RESET. THIS NEW LEGISLATION STARTED THE
SPEECH IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS.
THE WHOLE IDEA IS HE GETS
INTRODUCED NEW PLATFORM.
A NEW AGENDA.
HE’S REALLY KNEECAPPING THE
PARLIAMENT THAT’S SUPPOSED TO
CHECK HIM AND HAVE SOME KIND OF
INSIGHT ONTO THIS ACCELERATING
MOVE TOWARDS A NO DEAL BREXIT
JUST LIKE THROWING THE INGING IT
CLIFF AND HOPE YOU HIT SOMETHING
SOFT.
SOFT. >> IS THERE SOMETHING THAT CAN
BE DONE TO INTERRUPT THIS
ATTEMPT?
ATTEMPT? >> THEY HAVE ABOUT A SOLID WEEK
COMING UP.
COMING UP. ON TUESDAY THEY WILL COME BACK
INTO PARLIAMENT AND THE NEXT
WEEK THEY WILL BE SUSPENDED.
THEY WILL BE SENT HOME.
IN THAT WEEK JAREREMY CORBIN COU
MOVE FOR A VOTE OF NO
CONFIDENCE.
CONFIDENCE. THAT COULD SEE ALL OF THAT
SUSPENDED AND BORIS JOHNSON
DISSOLVE PARLIAMENT.
DISSOLVE PARLIAMENT. THAT WOULDN’T HAPPEN UNTIL AFTER
OCTOBER 31st.
OCTOBER 31st. THAT’S THE DATE IT CHARGES OUT
OF THE EU.
THAT’S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN HELP.
>> I HAVE A NO DEAL EXIT
