was into abuse around 6 years ago. something like that, 67 for that you could for that know there was no divorce and was a wonderful aroma. entice us back to the kitchen where my very 1st batch of self made must eat c awaits us. but it's, it's already. yes i am. all right, and so good golden ground. good. wrong. i think they're very crispy. so i try the one with the cheese. okay, this one? yes. it's so good. good. it's so good. it's so good. it's really good. it's really the best under. yes, yes, yes, yes, it's a good this so i can stay the whole day now eating them.

so it just really tastes good, you know, at the beginning when you look at them and say, what's special about it. but now you can see how good it's, it tastes, it smells. so it's, it's worth it. i'm glad you like the the island nation has been a member of the european union since 2008. and in this tax haven, people like to show off what they have. it's a popular place for wealthy english people to retire to, for example. it's a paradise for car lovers. i'm surprised to stumble across the vintage car, rattling and full at the bottom. multi has its dark sides too. late. 2017. in assassination shop, the country's political release and spark the national crisis. journalist asked me kawana elisia was investigating

a high level corruption scandal when she was murdered in a car. bombing. the attack struck the country and led to the resignation of top politicians. october's 5 thousands. it seemed. would it be in october 2017, that the journalist does make it easier with murdered you just a short distance from her home on either of ideas or investigative work, and focused on political and financial corruption and multiple mazda concepts here . and in music, it's important to me as a journalist, but i come here to make a point where on that and then sessions, i believe a democracy must guarantee freedom of opinion in the media and democratic events are all mazda is part of the malta. so a and i expect that freedom of speech, it should be a cornerstone and such a country and gornstein funds so, and the blinds in the country more and demanded in the corruption in life. now multi has to prove it can implement the rule of law and respect the freedom of the press so as to insure dust me

a call to one ago he did not dying and they were leaving the main island and taking the ferry north west vs on him he had snuff closer with a sudden we're heading for goes by we're going to visit the city of victoria. hi victoria. it's a small city, but it has to offer houses open. the question is, why to why the go? so is the 2nd largest island and the multi is archipelago. it's almost 14 kilometers long, and just over 7 kilometers wide. most of goes 31000 residents live in the island, the capital victoria. it's a bit quieter here than it is on the main island. most interested in the to

offer houses the aurora and the to are through us. for here i meeting the director, john goliath, the 2 buildings are just 300 meters. a part i came to goes over here and i have one question. why do you need to approach here on a very small island? it's because there's the rivalry between the 2 band clubs in victoria. the other bank club has also the out all over the house. and there's this at the out to us. so which is the seat of oprah as well, and out of sheer, the artist, the crime you bought, the good sense of a competitive sense. how is the competition affecting on the quality of the production? so in doing obviously, um that would be much more engagement and commitment by the members of the opera at the restaurant who are actually engaged to promote

the highest such as the coveted post. opera houses were built at the end of the 1960s. and they have been fighting with one another since then visitors do they go to both old for us? all right, you have the feeling, some are really loyal to one. no problem. some of this up orders may be that it's like you've done, right. all right, so yes, yeah, yeah. so the club, this it is, it is, but um, i mean, as, as a sense of much yours, the less was that way. we've gone from strength to strength and the people are going over to each other as the authors and 1st of all and also to see the, the level of the so that the competitive edge is always there. it is very much like mcauliffe artistic activity, the yet the

island nation is surprising. and another aspect in 2017, the multi is parliament voted overwhelmingly to legalize same sex marriage since then goes to a wedding planners, jewels bill jr. and catherine goods have almost had more homosexuals than heterosexual customers. business you? which 1st sometimes just for you round fund facing each of the readings and you will virus and every single we exchanging a brings will be done here. all your guests will be seated on the terrace looking out this way. so for say, the back end the letter. i'm amazed at how

progressive catholic multis approaches to transgender and homosexual issues. in the spartacus gay travel index, the island is ranked as one of the most elegy bt friendly countries in europe. meeting clayton, mexico, and l g b t i q, community organizer to find out more. a see catholic church is very selection here on uh, on mazda um. how is that affecting on that? would you be tied to rights? i would say since the 2011 for jennifer. and i'm a show that people want to move on and have the rights to do far as this kind of change the mentality, even for the church to not be so focused on unprecedented freedom of what people wanted to choose. unfortunate to sit at and issue a funds out over women and his guns to rights for the rights in mind is that the white 2nd behind. so when it comes to educate you, i to you. right? so yeah, and that's the concept get in mind with as we're having this fancy. whereas if,

if you guys are far ahead i would say in the word indemnity, we don't hear about aggression or home a whole the directly towards our community as such. but the case is the sierra for something towards the trans women of faith to physical and online abuse. and so that's was quite shocking for us. the clean organize of the annual multiplied we can pride march place in new york for an organization that takes care of the v i t q right here on my laptop. and what do you do? except even though it was very smart, i was gonna say the violation of the fact that we don't have a lot of eligibility places where to go to. so it's based on events. and i think that's one of the things that we're doing in g o l, i think the communities to,

to create that sort of sense of belonging and community for, for the eligibility kind. the multi has many facets, most people only know the place is a beautiful holiday. i'm but it's also become one that the trans cloud spots as a refugee crisis. again and again, thoughts that are pulled survivors from the sea, put into ports here. not as location, 350 kilometers from the libyan coast is the primary reason for that. more than 15000 people have died in recent years trying to reach your of the of the mediterranean sea. needing some survivors who have made it as far as multi i. yes. when did you arrive years? it's on the 201800. libya

across the sea, across the certificate. so can and how is the journey and what the problem is that you have? well, we came in this morning but somebody calls in the votes of death. can i get in and you either live or die? that on to the how you laugh about it now and so it was tough, right? the minnesota somebody. oh yes, it was tough. we were it so you for 7 days, for 7 days we were on a ship, contact a different country. but no one wanted to take us. then the united nations decided that we should come here to move to the i'm deeply moved by their feet. what will happen to them? how many will get stranded on this line within the future? when will the you find a collected solution to the problem?

i'm speaking with aaron's on it's do. the multi use photo journalist has captured scenes from the refugee drama. what does that mean? is it her in you and see today mean to you to me personally, it's a lot of things. it's my home for st. office bosses what we have seen over the past for 20 years of service. it's also a graveyard. the huge numbers of people crossing from africa trying to get to you it most and most of the deposit is tend to be from libya and the number of fatalities enormous. the parents accounts for shocking shows be photographs of rescue mission. so it is witness. 2 2 to have the times when i put down to

cameras and help tags. yeah, i had taken enough pictures anyhow, so there's no point in it. can you slip from his photographs are as stark reminder of what many don't want to excel. human hearts are at stake here, just as a guy, you know, that has just been investigated. obviously, when these people don't know if they're going to never die once they realize the survived. it's a very, very positive emotional experience for the emotional. and if you the same day and really are to be, i mean, yeah, i'm some breakdown into some sort of celebrates and saying and pray. but there's a lot and a lot of crying there's one rescue mission that they're in will never forget the, the most domestic weekend for me was east of 2017 where several

people from in tennessee. there was a match, struggle for them. how does this have an impact on, you know, you get some of these um as of images fashion back to your mind, which do not go away. they so sometimes come back to you at the most unexpected moments, more than just think about the 100 si size. in the same risk of the same we can think about the, the, the baby who's likes. it's like safe. what policy is change from your perspective, according to your opinions? and i would love to see more solidarity between the different till you appear in the countries, you know, when it comes to creating the you with wide policy on how to, how to share these people are some of them selves. the fact that full countries

have to agree in this, i mean that is obviously a problem because, you know, unfortunately there are some new member states which are adamantly against having refugees on there. so the, as long as europe fails to open up or to help, and as long as there is no improvement in the refugees, countries of origin will continue to see these dreadful images from the mediterranean. mazda is typically visit multiple has been really, really into lots cuz he still feels he hadn't expected to experience so much of the island, a very small, but it's architecturally very rich dimension in with the people i sometimes got the feeling i could be multi is to about to use as i, they're very close to arrow culture. obviously it also very european level piece within when they speak, because i feel i've understood the understanding which i hadn't expected at all to me. just mazda is, i couldn't say that it's really like any other country has done someone's pretty

unique states was they said, the, [000:00:00;00]
