Well who is britains new Prime MinisterBoris Johnsons wealthy british parents were in new york when he was born in 1964 he gave up his u. S. Citizenship he began his career as a trainee journalist for the Times Newspaper but was seen sacked for falsifying a quotation then he was the Daily Telegraphs brussels correspondent where he often wrote stories critical of the European Union he became a conservative party member in parliament in 2001 and served as the mayor of london for 2 terms until 2016 which is this when he successfully led the leave campaign in the bronx at referendum he was britains foreign secretary until he was on a year ago over terrorism a spragues a deal. Now we can bring in our guests we have Catherine Mcbride whos in london for us shes a senior economist at the institute for Economic Affairs in hamburg via skype Marcus Becker hes the europe correspondent for the german news magazine der spiegel and also in london jones hes a political commentator and columnist at the british newspaper the guardian and welcome to all a few thank you for very much for coming on this program im going to start with Catherine Mcbride and i ask you. What you think Boris Johnsons Biggest Challenges when it comes to the tory party now were going to talk about brags its in a little bit to the good because thats the defining legacy for Boris Johnson but lets talk about the tory party right now whats just happened. With the many members threatening to leave if he goes through with what hes promised. Im not sure that theyre threatening to leave the party but they are certainly several ministers have already resigned or said theyll be resigning they only have a majority of 4 busy at the moment and there is a by election on the 1st of all just which theyre likely to lose to the liberal democrats who used to hold the seat so its it is liberal liberal democrat sort of territory. And that reduces the majority down to 3 and in bars has a very big job of picking a new cabinet hes got to pick a cabinet of people who are really can do is people who believe in his agenda thats very important i think to reason they suffered from having a lot of people in the cabinet who were actively working against her agenda. And that you know she doesnt want to try and break to resist record for the most ministers resigning. So i think that that will be hes his 1st key thing is to position his cabinet properly and then hes got to inspire people to follow him and believe that life can be fine outside of the European Union and thats what they have to do thats the most important thing he has to do is is bricks it obviously if he doesnt then they have the bricks at passy breathing down their necks as well so that is. Yeah let me bring in owen jones here were not going to talk about greg suggested we just want to talk about what the u. K. Needs right now in a leader hes a strong personality hes almost the anti antithesis to syriza may is this the kind of person that the u. K. Can trust to lead them in troubling time said. No the clown show begins that Boris Johnson has been sacked twice for dishonesty once as you noted by his own newspaper another time by the leader of the conservative party he once was recorded discussing conspiring to beat up a journalist with these criminal friend is somebody who submitted. Votes on the same day one column supporting remain and the other column supporting leave which is one of course but was was pro it was actually published hes made a string of deeply offensive and bigoted remarks comparing black people to pick an unease with watermelon smiles gay people to tank top bomb boys compared equal marriage to 3 men marrying a dog joked about clearing the bodies from libya to turn it into a tourism resort i mean you know the only consistency in this mans career is as he can self would put it admittedly in his own slightly contrived colorful language is stunning not for certainly interest so just a few weeks ago he boasted of being one of the only politicians in the aftermath of the financial crash to stand up for the bankers now after a near lost decade will oversight over the last decade since the financial crash and bear in mind the city of london of course bankrolled the conservative party to a very large degree that sector is extremely unpopular and theres huge amounts of anger towards it so i suppose the picture based on his past record and again as foreign secretary have nothing nothing whatsoever to put to his name or the other than a string of environments in the European Union where he was described by one diplomat as it was the 1st time in his create been ashamed embarrassed to represent his own country where senior conservative aides said in meetings he had no attention to detail no concentration whatsoever among his window all his life this is a man who is based on his past record is deeply interest. Worthy deeply and principled completely inconsistent and only stands up for people of a certain class his own i mean do you dont have to say if he wasnt a privileged man from a very privileged backgrounds his career would have been ended a very very very long time ago and not says a lot about class or even britain ok having heard that catherine youre a supporter of Boris Johnson if youd like to tell us why you think he is the man for this job. Well actually i think that what we really need is a bit of optimism at the moment and i think forest can inspire optimism i i also think that he is not quite the class that owen thinks he is he did go to eton but he went on a scholarship as far as im aware so i think that hes certainly not from the lowest classes but hes not quite from the landed gentry either and i think that thats quite good because it shows he has the and aspirational ability that is what our country really needs but i i think that obviously he has offended a lot of people in his newspaper column but he writes to be amusing i dont think he writes that as a politician as much as he writes it as a journalist and so i think that a lot of what has been said in his column we have to take with a pinch of salt in the reason it was written and it wasnt written to be as serious as a serious politician which he now is so obviously out expect him to. To stop brushing the column or at least write it in a completely different manner. I think that hes hes very different in that way from to reason maybe he was very timid and didnt want to offend anyone. And i think boris is bombastic i do accept the fact that he said a lot of things that upset a lot of people but i dont think he was intending to upset them i think it is. You know. It was the way if you read the whole article a lot of times things are taken out of context and the. There was a and a tory assad a coal about him talking about women wearing burkas but he actually in the article said that they had the right to wear whatever they liked but everyone missed that out and just talked about his opinion on burkas so that i think sometimes you you can just take the soundbite youve got to actually read the article with what is written but i think his the important thing about boris is that he will inspire us to to go forward and take a chance i think weve got to stop the sort of increasing nanny state that is making everyone terrified of trying something new right my question now would be to Marcus Becker. Boris johnson has built a career on criticizing the your European Union do you think he would be able to work out a deal for bragg that that would be good for the united kingdom. Im pretty skeptical about that because the problems he faces are still the same problems faced by 3 time 8 and plus Boris Johnson has not the most fortunate of history so that the you here remember that you started to his career as a journalist of the cheney to Daily Telegraph in brussels where he will basically. Did a little face journalism with ludicrous
