Are pushing the United States and President Trump into conflict we meet with global newsmakers and talk about the stories that matter. There are 2 men remaining in the race to be both the leader of the u. K. Conservative party and Prime Minister but with only a tiny fraction of the public gets enough vote what impact will the outcome have on an already divided country i for me ok so just. Try to get more into the state. An estimated 160000 conservative Party Members will choose between bush and germany how to succeed theresa may as party leader but because a general election isnt june when i was also get the keys to 10 downing street for melinda mad johnson is the favorite to win the leadership ballot when its announced in 3 weeks time meanwhile hunt is highlighting his record as both foreign and Health Secretary both candidates have been appealing to Party Members in the run up to the postal ballot we need to get bricks done to someone who can play in the budget. Who believe. Someone who is meditated deeply on the opportunities a back seat could bring your country i am the right man when i talk to people running their own businesses to farmers to shopkeepers to people on the high street who are worried about the situation that were in they dont want to show them and they dont want to be entertained they want a Prime Minister who is going to lead us right. For more on this were joined from strasburg by aljazeera correspondent. Hes reported widely on the leadership race as well as brecks it and u. K. Politics tom howard is a journalist and commentator in many works as a reporter for the grito for walks conservative website he joins us from london and daniel rally is a member of parliament representing the Scottish Council area with no fuel for the Opposition Labor Party she joins us from london hello everybody the reason we are doing this show is because we are scout audience regularly what story is making news where you live and this is the comment that we got about a week ago the conservative leadership race between Boris Johnson and jeremy hunt and the lies that they are telling to the u. K. Public the responding of waffling on your questions properly spewing out lies then we have journeyed to things that you would work with in better topic. They do a good job of summing up the conservative leadership race. I think of quite a partisan way of looking at said really what we have in this race is someone who has for many people been the face of brecks it for many years Boris Johnson who helped lead that vote need campaign all the way back in 26 the who stood on the base stages around the country and dissuaded the country to vote to leave the e. U. Against jeremy hunt who is someone who is considered to be much more of a diplomats much more of a sort of straight laced kind of person as he said in the trip not to show him but someone who did vote remains so you have this sort of more technocratic approach up against this more impassioned approach and by the way that all the polls are looking right now it looks like people are going to pump but passion that drives the enthusiasm morgan that sort of laid back technocratic execute and im just not all that damn hans that was a fine secretary for the general one night to win how would you sum it up nights as a as a candidate who has less recognition go one way then by stance not special no i think i think toms very much right in saying that you know hunt is viewed as as a technocrat he wasnt a very popular Health Secretary certainly an inside the Health Service and Boris Johnson will boris is just that in the u. K. Does does have what people call the ready brek clothes you know he has this sort of charisma i would i would say its almost point or as having let the Police Campaign botia him so citrus recent days broke city il when we went when it was voted on in the commons but you know that they can get really ultimately both having poland that. And this is the most important thing is that theyre trying to appeal to a conservative Party Membership that is absolutely insistent that the u. K. Has to leave in the 31st of october. I think primarily because if the u. K. Doesnt leave the 31st of october then probably the u. K. Will never leave and as well as that you could as and leave then then that would be a general election sooner rather than later and theyre terrified of either losing enormous support policy or losing the entire election to Jeremy Corbin and both of these candidates are saying openly that if they dont leave those things will happen so it as much as anything else it seems silly that the in its for the delivery of bricks it is as much a peep in the sense that its again as it is to do with National Interest and thats not a partisanship mulloy its what they say who sells that now youre a young neighbor and i want to put the stephen this comes and pfizer membered says in the black and minority ethnic office from london young loba and selects this point about this concept of the surprise have a. Story to collection is tiring fast includes millions of people having sen of our country there is a consequence people heroes life and death situations because mr zinni returns this election really goes 1st dont think the bigger he ramadans the grounds its my own thats number it is called black people pickaninnies and jeremy hunt has done more than anyone to dismantle our national Health Service. Danielle is kind of i mean i think she she phrased well is simply and you know weve got someone who has and hunt someone who brook the n. H. S. And then weve gone out and bought a someone who wants to sell off to trump and so you know the cant be trusted and we heard from the young women there how much people feel let down by both of these contenders so it is such a false choice theyre both absolutely complicit and status the measures which is so harmful in communities like mine and with a little bit and but across the u. K. And they you know theyve been complicit in that so no wonder people all across the u. K. Feel like this is a false choice and i certainly wouldnt be excited about either of them and it was interesting there that generated the huns in the clip that you showed with the reasons homes are speaking up for businesses because when he was late it was put to him some Small Businesses may have to close if there was a new deal bricks that he said that would be a necessary sacrifice you know this is certainly terrible why would anyone feel inspired by them or want either of them to be the next Prime Minister thats a question for tom tom. So i think theres the you youre quite right in terms of jerry hunts pessimism hes someone who campaigned for main back in 2016 it just today was pointing to bank of england reports but a predicting doom and gloom but in reality those same studies they say reports 3 years ago he predicted as a result of the fact that the an immediate recession that the job losses that bed be all of these horrible outcomes the country that he never materialized in reality what happens after the referendum is the highest job growth that weve had we not have more people in employment in this country than ever before were growing faster than germany faster than trunks faster than its really this countrys doing going gangbusters really and also weve had an extra 394000000. 00 pounds a week invested in our n. H. S. That wouldnt have happened without the referendum and so what weve really seen is quite successful 3 years as a failure to deliver that actually results so you what were looking at yeah i did and i sidestepped something that i think is really important and that i think its going to show you this is headline throughout is there a hawk
