and, of course, the war in ukraine, prime minister boris johnson, the outgoing prime minister boris johnson, noting that britain supplied weapons to the ukrainian armed forces and in his words standing up to president putin, and that was the message he wanted to reiterate this morning. take a listen. >> together we have laid foundations that will stand the test of time, whether by taking back control of our laws or putting in vital new infrastructure. great solid masonry on which we will continue to build together. paving the path of prosperity now and for future generations. and i will be supporting liz truss and the new government every step of the way. >> reporter: now, as you mentioned, poppy, there is obviously a downside to that legacy, and that is, of course, the months and months of the partygate scandal, and the general -- which embroiled the british government under prime minister boris johnson. that is often what many ordinary people will remember of this government, particularly, of course, as max touched on that earlier, the cost of living, which impacted families up and down t

liz truss takes over from boris johnson after a divisive leadership contest. how will she confront the cost-of-living crisis at home and what will be her foreign priorities? this is inside story. hello and welcome to the program. britain's new prime minister is taking over at a time of unprecedented challenges and abroad. liz truss is under pressure to act on the country's cost-of-living crisis. families face soaring energy bills as inflation hits a 14 year high. she also needs to manage the post brexit relationship with the european union and the war in ukraine. her first task has been to form a cabinet. truss nominated mp's who supported her during the leadership contest. for the first time, the government's top four roles are not held by white men. truss is promising immediate steps to deal with high energy costs. >> we cannot just deal with today's problem. we cannot just put a sticking pasture on it. we need to increase our energy supplies long-term. that is why we will open up more supply in the north sea which the honorable gentleman has opposed. that i

she's close. devoris johnson, she's been unfailingly loyal to boris johnson. she wasn't involved directly in the crew to unseat him. she's been compared indeed somewhat devoris johnson, a figure of the right of the party. sometimes accused of being a little bit booster ish like forest johnson. is she the boris johnson, continuity canada, or can she her own road? well, this is really the big difference. we campaign a company and i think when you come painting in the leadership, your audience is very small. 150000 people say that we know us to quite supportive up for a strong and she will have calculated that she needs to appeal to the people to get what she wants from them, which is the votes. now the switch and you're appealing to the general public to a millions of people who lean conservative are not party members. she will have to appeal to them going forward if she wants to retain the majority and still be the prime minister of the next selection. so i think a lot of the things that she's been talking about the appeal to the right to the party that appeals

so we heard from boris johnson this morning. a new poll just released found that six out of ten people in britain said the country's new prime minister should call a general election before the end of the year it was done before liz truss was named as party leader. it's not personal but doesn't speak to the idea she doesn't have a mandate from the british people to have that position only the tens of thousands of people who voted in the conservative party election. one of them was craig hoi, a member of the scottish conservatives. thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having us. >> reporter: this is the first time a queen has appointed a new prime minister in this way, it's always been done in london. explain what liz truss was see. >> it's normally done half a mile up the road in downing street now they had to go to scotland where i'm from. compare and contrast the serenity you'll see. i think this is the calm before the storm as it were for the new prime minister. but i think she will have that ceremony with the queen whe

his main attack against boris johnson was on competence and character. wrist trust -- liz truss has transformed the agenda. you have a similar gap between the two parties that you had a few years ago. that makes it easier for starmer. he can talk about policies. they are much more to the left. i think the public will be more prepared to give him that. >> i think it is a quite decent strategy. let's just avoid that. let's forget any of that. but there will be a lot of angry labor party members who want a clean house. they want reform. that will have an impact. >> at the conference they will probably keep it off the agenda if they can. publicly the labour party will say this was all in the past. it does still present practical problems. they are trying to make it as possible for him. those tend to be the people who go around and knock on doors. the party is in a difficult financial situation because it is not getting membership money from all of these former members. they are saying we will withhold our money. it is not just a political problem for starmer

bonjour, it's me, boris johnson, mayor of london. by the time he was on the cusp of becoming prime minister, he was already a singular phenomenon because no figure probably ever in british politics but certainly in modern times had managed to combine so successfully politics with the entertainment industry. and he had a music hall comedian's sense of performance. he was the most striking performance politician of modern times. and it was almost as if he was knocking on the gates of number 10 downing st shouting, "i'm a celebrity, get me in there!" would you like to be prime minister? that's a very tough job. if that ball came loose from the back of the scrum, which it won't, of course would be a great thing to have a crack at it but it's not going to happen. the human bulldozer, who snatched the ball from the back of the tory scrum is a man of many contradictions. a classical scholar turned popular entertainer, a self—proclaimed liberal one nation tory, hand in glove with the hardline brexiteers. the doubters, the doomsters, the gl

but prime minister boris johnson will make a final speech before lustrous her era. we will bring all to you as it happens. >> good to have you with us, the u.s. justice department is considering its next move hours after losing a legal battle with former president donald trump. a federal judge appointed by trump granted his request for a so-called special master to review documents seized from mar-a-lago. a cnn's sara murray explains, the throws a wrench into the justice department's investigation into potentially mishandled materials. >> a judge today granted tom trump's request for a special master to review the materials the fbi seized from the extraordinary search at mar-a-lago. judge -- writing because of trump's role as a former president, the stigma associated with the subject seizure is in a lead of its own. a future indictment based on any degree of property that we are trying to do assault in a reputation ilham of a decidedly different order of magnitude. and a major victory for trump, a third party attorney outside of government will soon be tasked with s

well boris johnson come back and influence policy? lizzy: i think boris johnson will find it highly lucrative with republicans and will probably break in a few millions for his memoir. remember that he was a journalist. you are right that he would like to return to politics. i thought there were hints of that in his last speech in the house of commons. perhaps it was a hint that he will be back. francine: just reassure everyone, i know the cat is still at downing. lizzy: larry the cat is a permanent resident of downing street. francine: i think i saw him behind you a moment ago. joining us now, it is exciting to have a fresh face. you wonder who they will put in price and how she is going to pull this off. >> that will be the most challenging a prime minister has had. inflation problems, geopolitical issues. the level of difficulty is high. francine: the most difficult thing she needs to deal with is the energy crisis. you speak to market participants you also need construction. bila you need to have some kind ofl: gap but you should

she's a i different figure to boris johnson. different figure to boris johnson. we different figure to borisjohnson. we saw him here this morning, he was his old self, almost over enthusiastic prime minister. liz truss isn't as polished performer. this is the biggest moment of her career so far. we've heard her a lot over the last six weeks but to be honest most of the time she's been talking to the conservative party. this is talking to the country and the voters who in the next couple of years will decide whether she's a really quick, in and out the door prime minister or whether she gets a bit of to work on an agenda. fine prime minister or whether she gets a bit of to work on an agenda.- bit of to work on an agenda. one of the key things _ bit of to work on an agenda. one of the key things that _ bit of to work on an agenda. one of the key things that will _ bit of to work on an agenda. one of the key things that will tell - the key things that will tell everyone about what kind of government it is is when we see these big appointments, who she puts into num

liz truss looks set to succeed boris johnson. look at the markets and things are not looking great at all. tom: there is a timeframe. gas capacity -- how long will it tied companies over for? and when you have to start pricing that in? a drop of 1.4%. less bad than the future is suggested but given that we ended friday in the green, that is the reset. the dax down heavily. the auto sector is bleeding significantly. down more than 3%. the ftse 100 being held up because of energy and basic resources. the only sectors in the green. waiting for the announcement of the next uk prime minister. energy gaining 1.2%. a sick resources up 0.5%. -- basic resources up 0.5%. peak build season in china. lopsided demand for iron ore which has been pressure in the last few weeks. the auto sector is the main drag on the dax. let's get to more details on the energy crisis which is deepening. hours after the g7 leaders agreed to implement a price cap on russian oil, gazprom reversed the plans to continue the flow of gas through nord stream. a number

and precipitated the downfall of boris johnson. this trust was seen as more of a loyalist and more as somebody that the conservative party felt they could lie rely on to push the agenda forward as they had toward a general election. i think that, ultimately, that is what swayed the voters and that she will likely be the new party leader and therefore prime minister. >> what will the new leader inherit and what are the major challenges ahead for the new prime minister. >> the new prime minister has got the conservative party. we have been talking about this since breck set. the fourth prime minister, and the conservative party. the electorate have been tired, exhausted from these elections. the most significant change is that when boris johnson became prime minister, he became prime minister having won a single issue election, getting brexit done. the electorate fatigued. the new prime minister comes in a different aftermath. they are facing serious issues. roughly inflation, recession, post brexit and the energy crisis. they will s

dani: what is next for boris johnson? lizzy: i reckon the u.s. speaking circuit will be highly lucrative for boris johnson given his reputation among republicans. his nickname is baby trump. he used to be a journalist before politics and he could always go back to that. there were hints in his last speech he could return to the politics -- he is pasting -- he is facing an investigation over his conduct and could be suspended from the house of commons if he is found in contempt of parliament. the easier route for him would be to quit as an mp. we will have to see how he wants to handle his political career from the back benches. dani: thank you so much and thank you for all of your work covering this for us. bloomberg's lizzy burden. let's turn to the economic challenges facing liz truss. let's bring in the chief u.k. economist at pantheon macro economics. in terms of what we have heard from liz truss, the details are scant. one thing she said is i will govern as a conservative, i will deliverable plan to cut taxes and grow the economy. it is that

after all boris johnson was removed within an internal coup within the conservative party. liz truss was basically appointed by the membership of the conservative party. that is about 200,000 people. that she has to prove herself over the next two years ahead of likely general election in 2024. she has time to deliver that but i think that liz truss is a very impressive track record as foreign secretary, as international trade secretary. if she follows the path i think of margaret thatcher really i think reducing the size of the state, cutting taxes, advancing, you know prosperity for the british people i think she will rise in popularity. so this is the beginning of her premiership. i think she has tremendous potential. i think she will do very well as prime minister. jackie: okay. let me just ask you in the last moment that we have because it is difficult not to, harry and meghan continue to get snubbed by the royals but in some ways meghan markle is doing this to herself going on the record with all these kinds of interviews. people are saying enough already, stop, try t

so this was really vintage boris johnson and the worst. maybe there was a sly illusion to a possible come back because he quoted a year. and she and roman patrician a guy who had been chased away and had to go back to his farm in the countryside and then came back and had this is this glorious come back. however, as a dictator, whatever boston smudged to say, the british people and his successor was that quote, is not quite certain. harper, thank you very much for an hour. our proposal there just to outside of number 10 downing street where we've got a changing of the guard today. thank you so much. take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world today. canadian police say one of the suspects in a series of fatal stabbings has been found dead. they are still searching for his brother who may be injured. the 2 are accused of killing 10 people and injuring 18 in saskatchewan province. when the deadliest attacks and canadas history rescue workers are searching for 100, still stranded by a 6.8 magnitude earthquake. that str

but boris is not churchill. johnson himself was always concerned about his legacy. he once told me why he wanted to move from fleet street to westminster. as he put it, "because no—one puts up statues to journalists." hello. it's been a weekend of extremes — highs of 26 celsius those who will push northwards so this evening but we also have a more general band of heavy thundery rain pushing its way northwards across a large swathe of the uk, other parts of east anglia in south—east england seem very little rain. bind it, clear skies and another warm and muqqy clear skies and another warm and muggy night, temperatures not lower than 15 or 16 celsius. that band of rain finally reaches north—east and scotland tomorrow morning. behind it, some spells of sunshine for many. watch out for a scattering of heavy and thundery showers. an the sand and, once again, it will feel warm. 211—25 c the top temperature goes up as temperatures eased down in the week ahead and with a low pressure steam closer to the uk, they will be showers or longer spells of rain for many. t

boris johnson delivered brexit, the covid vaccine, and stood up to russian aggression. history will see him as a hugely consequence hope prime minister. i am honored to take on this responsibility at a vital time for our country. we will transform britain into an aspiration a with high-paying jobs, safe streets, and where everyone everywhere has the opportunities they deserve. i will take action this day and action every day, to make it happen. chris: action at this day, a phrase borrowed from winston churchill. liz truss set out her key objectives. >> i will get britain working again. i have a bold plan to grow the economy through tax cuts and reform. i will cut taxes to reward hard work and boost business led growth and investment. chris: with a nod both economic and meteorological, the prime minister describes the country that she now leads, how it is, how she wants it to be. >> we should not be daunted by the challenges we face. as strong as this storm may be, i note that the british people are stronger. our country was built by people who get things done. we have h

>> with boris johnson, you have to be trust to yourself, and i think he did till the end. it is great regret but with well-wishes. i think boris johnson can be honored for his manner of leaving the office. >> reporter: we spoke to the leaders of the democrats and he pointedly made reference of the scandals that brought him down. do you expect he's going to bring that up? >> no. you say good-bye the party and back the people that saw you through a difficult time. don't forget. we had the pandemic. he was hospitalized for it. we had the brexit. it's been a busy few years. i'm sure the prime minister is relinquishing the crown was a great deal of sadness. maybe he'll have a well-earned rest for a while. >> what do you think he'll do next. there is a thought that he'll be a thorn in the side of the government. >> my thought is boris johnson is not going to be a looming presence wanting to have an influence behind the scenes. but i think he'll be much more removed and in the states giving speeches and talking about his time in office and writing books. this is stuff that he rea

i think it was boris johnson who coined that phse. it is a moment of profound importance and sadness. a moment so ma people had hoped somehow wouldever happen but of course now, it has. it is hard still to take in the sad reality that this rain has ended3 -- ended. i think it will take time for the nation to process this. there is a tremendous sense of loss. i think many will find this point unsettling and disorientating. we are seeing that people are needed to come together there outside of buckingham palace on this bleak, rainy night in the early autumn. i think people feel the need to be together at this particular moment, seeking comfort from each other. of all the other uncertainties we face as a nation, now our head of state has died. this person who has been in the background to our lives for most of us throughout all of our lives. there are notany people who have known anything other than the nation with the queen as head of state. she was the rock on which modern britain was built. a source of reassurance and stability for so
