Good morning now from see mona fulton who is live for us in baghdad so simona what is the latest there thats happening. Well the violence appears to have gone down after 2 very violent days that claimed a lot of lives but the aftermath of what has happened still very much reverberates not just here for her square but the entire nation for behind me you can see these youve holding up a banner which basically says that there are not enough coffins to birdied that that the people who have been killed specifically must be i was of course one of the towns in southern iraq and witnessed some of the worst violence over the past few days at least 40 People Killed over 2 days according to the iraq and Human Rights Commission a little bit further down weve also seen memorials set up for the people who are being killed with people coming to pay their respects people crying looking at the pictures of friends or even family that theyve lost or spoke to one woman who had come to the recorder. And who basically said that look i love the mufti may have offered his resignation but that is not enough we want justice we want justice for the people who have been killed over 400 people have died now since october 1st and people are adamant that those responsible whether its high level government officials or those who pulled the trigger have to be held accountable. And what what do people expect from the home and tomorrow. Well the focus is very much shifted on harlem and then people here are very aware that the responsibility now last parliament not just to potentially vote on the other lot the muftis proposed resignation but they also want the parliament itself to be dissolved constitutionally the president would have to do this and so far this is not an option that he has mentioned while addressing the public eye but basically people want. Politicians themselves in the words of one of the men to have something that he and step down she said that look if somebody asks me to leave i will not answer is to say some people dont want us on the bottom of this as if they are day one of the Political Parties that support him plays its also step down because what theyre saying is that no matter what these parties truth replacing all of it will be more of the same so everybody will be watching very closely what the parliament decides tomorrow whether are not here they will vote on more of how the law of the markets leave office and how that works turns out yeah a lot of questions there the remain unanswered for the moment Simona Fulton life 1st there in baghdad thank you for.

The Prime Minister designate who then has 15 days to form a capital but he has to form a cabinet and obtain the approval by a simple majority vote of the. Parliament so this is sort of mechanically what has to happen but what is difficult to see is that the impasse that result that the optima the becoming Prime Minister in the 1st place that empowers us still in place its difficult to see that im not short period of time in 2 weeks the Parliamentary Party will be able to agree not only on the Prime Minister but on a new slate of.
