nairobi and as the summer steve strikes southern europe, we joined the cool kids heading north port something now known as a pool cation, the i'm quite richardson. thank you so much for joining us. polls of open to the u. k. as a general election, the opposition of labor party is the overwhelming favorite to win. and the end, 14 years of conservative will prime minister rashid soon ok, made a surprise call for early elections. a decision that is now projected to backfire recent polls, the show voters are deeply dissatisfied with his government care storm or center. last labor party is on horse for a mass of victory or the cost of with thing. and the state of the health care
9:02 am
system are among the key issues for voters. so so knock is hoping that he can sway undecided voters voting on a brave face from ministration. so not lead, didn't he send to arrive conservative party in the political fight that he himself called for and is likely to lose many people may want to say the result of this election is a full grown confusion. the all i believe in my bones that it is no, and i think you do to we do not surrender to labor. we will fight for every vote. we will fight for all values and we will fight for our vision of person. but this time, it seems that this vision is all to of stick with what the british people want of to 14 years. in paula, the conservative so know, facing a mess of defeat is thomas sent to leslie. the party is now 20 points ahead in the
9:03 am
polls and isn't close for victory. changed labor policies? pretty much the preston moving forward to a guy with a lady by top. but that is what we're fighting for. let's continue that fight. if you will change your hop to vote for it. and this change is what the british population seems to want. service indicate vote has a most consent fall the cost of living as trained health care system and migration, which has increased in recent years. and this last issue placed into the hands of nigel thrush. and he's on team. we gratian, reform you keep party the party has soonest, search and support. and while it's not likely to get the significant number of states in parliament, it was to change regions political landscape to. but whoever gets to full the next bridge, the government will have to prove to the british public the this time they made the
9:04 am
right choice. left of the latest from london where the dw correspondence back as mass. forget prime minister wishes do not call the selection just a month and a half ago. and now polls showing his tory is 20 points behind labor. do you think he made a mistake here? as many people have said that this was a big mistake because indian from it is obviously so not creative voices. you could've called the election as late as the the end of this year. however, inflation is just coming down from this for 41. yeah. hi. so he will have hope that this would insect and little bit of a momentum in this campaign. and that this would narrow the gap in the polls, but it hasn't happened. but to be fair. there was really for, for long periods of time reducing that was behind the position. they both part the in stock. so you can narrow this gap would if it would have taken a lot. so it would have been a long shot in any case, but it, it seems at this point, but he hasn't succeeded and, and soothing the bridge,
9:05 am
bridges and timing things around and do by all accounts. it seems very likely that cure storm or will be the next prime minister. can you tell us a little bit more about the labor leader? i was trying in the last weeks to engage people on the street. so i was trying to describe queues. thelma as anita and it really was very easy. a lot of people said well that just as bad as he chose the other people described him as, as, as castle maybe some 2 times even as boring. so there were not that many people are really, really and sues. yes. take about him. however, he is leading in the polls. he has a working class background. this is something that he mentioned very often here in britain that's do quite important where people come from to every opportunity you mentioned is that his dad was a tool maker so that he basically has a connection to, to people who know what it is to do to fight for a living, and he wasn't bored with
9:06 am
a silver spoon in his mother's that's also the contrast to where she stood. next is one of the wealthiest people in the country. she's trying to ton as well. it's like me boring image around by saying, i'm not the mind who's making big promises. i'm not coming with like a master plan. i'm not here to be like and the did for a sat just direct the i'm the candidates for the to be the next prime minister. he's showing 2 to 2 ton is slightly um, well not, not super charming image around to his advantage and very good as people go to vote at that pulling station behind you. what are the issues at the front of their minds? what are the biggest challenges for britain's next governments? you've already mentioned that really the biggest concerns of ages is the cost of living. we have had an economy that has really stagnated since the financial crisis, and that has consequences. they're all moved. freed things. the library is what was
9:07 am
being ups of c. so lots of people have to make choices. people become poor, they have to make choices. and the last winter between eating the homes and eating . and it's not just of people who are very poor, but also people in the middle classes. some people have to have to work 2 jobs i speak to very to is in south london about that concern. so let's have a listen what they had to say. behind london's glittering facade, there was a lot of hidden hardship, poor and rich live side by side. greenwich is located in south london, and as one of the poor is communities in england, many a fee of that, the surroundings, the entire country are in this state of crisis. i'm a single mom and i was 2 jobs. and i'm just trying to pay nursery fees as well as school fees and then keep them private ran like everything is so expensive,
9:08 am
staple. i worry them the counting the pennies on the it's very hard so everyone know people to spend so much time in asset trying to pay rent and things to live that they actually keep quite often lose sights of their the reo goes and what they really wants to be doing charities of wanting, the prices for food, energy and drugs have increased dramatically. what incomes has not, but it's not just those on the bread line to the feeding the pins with inflation just coming down from a 41 year high. britain's cost of living crisis is also hitting the middle process . many people are now dependent on food, but families with children. how often especially vulnerable we seen a really c buys in the number of people being forced to turn to see things just to survive. so over the last 5 years, the number of emergency food pulses we provided has nearly doubled last year. it
9:09 am
was a reco 3100000 emergency food parcels. so that's an incredibly worrying runs in the number of people who just haven't gotten enough money to afford the essentials. poverty can affect everyone. that's what valmont key wants to draw attention to. also, husband died. the freelance management consultant lost her apartments and became dependent on food. thanks so much in the middle. the cost is hidden and that will be an awful lot of people struggling today. so who like myself, going to ask for health is just almost like the worst possible thing that you do. it's about what it does to you sort of emotionally and psychologically that because it's very scary. it's a very scary and shameful place to be. many yeah, feel abandoned by politicians. it seems like leaving a decent well they don't see what's going on on denise,
9:10 am
they hear it. i don't see it. they hear it, but then no, no quotes like, i think they get their luncheon in the house of uh of uh, we can palliser voice moves to. i think they have plenty of expenses that they can say. i don't think we advocate the people in greenwich few left alone with that every day problems. hardly anyone here seems to have any hope that the upcoming election would change anything or good. thank you for reporting there. let's see how these concerns play out today when we expect 1st results. and what would you say analysts are watching out for the yeah, the 1st results of holding stations, they close at 10 o'clock all across the country. and this is when we will have the fast estimates, they're usually pretty accurate, and then we would have to watch overnight. so by the next morning, early next morning, then we will most likely know who the next, which is pregnant,
9:11 am
or is that most for us in london. thank you so much for reporting that the white house says us president joe biden is not reconsidering his decision to run for another term in office by to now under increasing pressure to step aside after his poor performance. and they had to head debate with donald trump. last week, more top democrats have begun to openly express their concerns about biden's ability to do the job. following a series of public stumbles and recent months and here's what whitehouse spokesperson crane is on. it appears that responding to the new york times report that suggested biden was way enough whether to continue his run. as i can say is the president is moving forward. he's moving forward is being president. he's moving forward with his campaign as his campaign has been very, very clear about that. that's what i can,
9:12 am
that's what i can speak to. and that's what i can say. and that is the president's focus. the president's focus is, how does he continue to do that? work and anything else that we're hearing or that's being reported is absolutely false. so there's been here from the white house earlier dw and spoke with rachel rizzo with the atlantic council in washington and asked her house united states allies feel about the possibility of bite and dropping out of the race. look, i think anyone who watched that debate on thursday, certainly america's allies, were probably a little bit nervous. but the fact is that biden, as he has said before, he tells the truth, he didn't tell it well last week. but nonetheless, he, he did, he did tell the truth, and that is one thing that i think sets him apart from donald trump. his, his debate was sort of spewed with, with lies and false hoods. and um, you know, it's, it's sort of a difficult sell to allies across the pond that the, you know,
9:13 am
trump presidency would be good for them. i think it's clear that it wouldn't. the good news is that we have the 75th anniversary nato summit coming up next week. here in washington, it's going to be a massive stage of $32.00 leaders from nato countries. i think 37 world leaders and all so bite and really has a chance, i think, to show the world the, the president that he is, and a sort of ally concerns from, from people in, in your upset and might be nervous at this point in time. this is rachel presented there from the atlantics council in washington. it's now in 10. your young people have been taken to the streets again this week. many have vowed to continue until president william router resigned. they're angry about the government's response to last week's protests, according to the county or human rights commission, $39.00 demonstrators were killed and more than $360.00 injured in
9:14 am
a recent interview present, rudo defended the work of the police and said that they did nothing wrong and that seems to have made protesters even more determinant as mario miller. now reports from royal nairobi. it's done as an exciting day for david monkey. he arrived early at last week's protest, and only with a water bottle. the face mask. mood was cheerful. he says, i don't watch why was taking self is with the police. i'm challenging piece, but then the chang with the money to come to us. and next to me was shot people stotts. i'm sure if you get to the ground, i started running, then i had to buying and i was a hit. the bullet went right through his neck. now in the hospital, he's waiting for a 2nd operation. they with one of the accounts themselves lucky protest and next to him was shot in the head and later died. he doesn't regret taking part in the protest. he says he's fed up with the government because of his corruption and nepotism. i think it has
9:15 am
a lot of problems with education system is broken. it's not what you know, but who, you know, looked at me. i graduated from university and now i'd be reduced to driving taxis and the police still harassed of me. he graduated with the geography degree 3 years ago, but hasn't been able to find a job. it's a fate shared by many, 67 percent of 10 years young people are unemployed. he did temporary work until his mother took out a loan to buy him a motorbike. so he could work as a motor tax driver of that someone can somebody be my we just have to survive in this life. so even if you follow the rules of, i'm find them you still sofa? pardon? i didn't really, really autumn told me on the 19 year olds able to him come out attended the same demo as david, but he never returned home. his mother says he was about to start college and was known for standing up for the less privileged. i have an updated email to fight for
9:16 am
people's rights and when he couldn't stand seeing people being oppressed, they have fun. people to him to mouse family wanted to hold or remember and ceremony for him and other kids posters were forced to change the location, police quote, and of the area early in the morning, feeling protests outside the hospital. this group of young people are also at risk of being disposed by the police. they spontaneously mobilized a crowd of social media in support of the injured protest is here to the lab, to help some of our fellow youth ways. and we had didn't know enough. i'm glad so you have come to have purchased has changed for being about the cost of living prices and against the tax bill, demanding justice and accountability for those killed doing last week's deadly demonstrations. the protest is one president william, brutal to resign. you. i know to you had an event that those one of us die
9:17 am
a little bit more to come on, be much removed not to go from about the inside the hospital. david monkey is concerned about how he'll support his family if he can't work. but like the protest as he remains to time, don't do that and you know, to ride a motorbike, you need your legs. i'll just have to deal with it. i will get back to the bottom. i will get back to upon a a look at the latest from nairobi with a dw correspondence felix my ring, the high felix, important to know perhaps that the president did withdraw. that bill that had initially brought protesters out onto the streets. why have we continued to see demonstrations this week for the demonstrations have continued because people feel that they needs to see much more than just the dropping of the
9:18 am
control viceroy financing deal that had brought people initially to the streets. so this week people have been talking about the president needing to do the pharmacy and his government. people have also been talking about the presidents, actually kitchen office. yes i did during discussion in can you as a send that assembly some of the centers of watch and the see the government's needs on, on the whole and they need a fresh start. so most of what people have been pushing for this week is that not fresh starts, they feel everything that has been happening. the government corruption, mismanage rental public funds. and some, as i know, the cases needs to be dealt with head bo, and they feel that they do not have confidence with these governments to deal with the issues that they are raising at the moment. that's sort of the fresh start that they're demanding. have we seen retailers, government take any other measures to try to address these concerns? and so when president brutal talked to people last week,
9:19 am
he said that i to government will be taking on some real estate emissions. now the salaries and remaining additional commission in the country, how does it add new salaries for members of parliament uh, members of that, the company net and members of the executive team. and yesterday, as a result of public pressure, the salaries and a new meters on commission actually has to add because that the idea goes that's northeast and save that. they would not be doing salary. so they probably coffee says as yet they do, the chevy was supposed to employ an 11 court of appeals. i just bought to, they said we have to wait until the countries economics are in the right place for them to be able to employ of a new judges. so a few uh, government organizations and government led institutions taking the lead. but people feel these needs to see so much more than just that are tardy cuz then that
9:20 am
that is as big as it's not jesus. they need to see people who have been mismanaging, mismanaging public funds, fiat and that's, i think we'll be village must test for william, brutal on the way that he's serious with those situations. or it was just another day when he talks to the public and he thinks that the public would forget. and next time he said something different. well, thank you so much for bringing us up to speed there. that is dw corresponding to phoenix miranda to and to south africa now where a new government has been sworn in the country's 1st coalition cabinet since the end of apartheid. 30 years ago, president obama post as african national congress, has decided to govern with a 10 rival parties. after failing to achieve an outright majority in mesa elections . 6 of them now hold cabinet positions alongside the amc and a b centrist, the democratic alliance. formerly, the main opposition party will run 6 ministries, while the amc will hold on to 20,
9:21 am
it's performed the functions of my office. at the democratic alliance often characterized as the party of south africa, rich white minority, long time critics of amc, they are now their biggest coalition partner. so what's likely to cause the most problems between what has been until now a long time rivals k level got my point here is a professor of african politics at the university of south africa in pretoria degree. this points are friction, mostly in some aspects of domestic policy, as well as foreign policy. looking at domestic policy, it would be um, obviously the issues around blake and base broad base to protect. you couldn't be component often which eviction which and the african national congress. and even deposited yes. is awesome being pushing as one of these up with some of these policies for a dress of many years of a pop age and result discrimination. so they're in lines one of the default lines whereby the 2 parties might flush, but there's also a,
9:22 am
this is around corruption and the opposition people for my position, one should say, the democratic airlines. and it has often been very vocal around, you know, stage corruption corruption pub in the governments like things on now the dreamy, you know, the african national congress in the government of national unity. i'm expecting the spots to fly in the departments because now they will be inside, you know, those government departments and ministries with the ask and this not congress the out of pocket where the when i think they are quite likely to collections, especially in terms of funding policy is those things whereby the applicant is not investing mostly left east m parties, part of the kind of, you know, party and organization. it has awesome being line to watch those things that the democratic guidelines, you know, uh, not normally they support the, you know, things like it. um, whereby they would like to go mostly softly to up to what stage such as in bob
9:23 am
weighs based such as cuba space such as the rice you guys or and then you know, we can look at that more. but those are the main ones that i, i foresee with, with that too, but this might have issues. yeah. us and turning now to a look at hurricane barrel. it continues its destructive path through the caribbean . the category for storm has killed at least 9 people. so far and officials say that decimal will likely increase as communications come back online and affected areas in jamaica, high winds, oper, rude, increase and ripped off roofs. while heavy rains caused flash flooding and, and the cayman islands, residents have forwarded up windows and preparation for the storm, which is expected to hit them next. hurricane barrow is expected to slow down over the next day or 2, but remain at or near hurricane springs. in the us major ologist, matthew could put she has more now on how dangerous the coming hours are going to be for those were in the path of the hurricane. right now,
9:24 am
the next 36 hours will be in grass will be getting trained. ordinarily, after getting a place like jamaica with that, hydra ranges here, the circulation in part we, we any, especially with disruptive upper level wins right here, the system a part. but one thing is that a credit is just so incredibly hot with water temperature is above average and really above 3 degrees celsius. which reason, even though the system is trying to weaken and a route to the units and it still has too much energy to drop on from alone. now i think by the time it gets to you the next go sometime between thursday night and friday morning, arizona pain cube, and will legacy category one wins. maybe category 2 wins. guess either side of say, you know, 140150 kilometers per hour and a less reserves. but then the big wild card. what happens when the system gets to the gulf of mexico? there might be a settlement for re intensification and perhaps a rabbit investigation that areas from jam, pico mexico, all the way to brownsville, texas has to be on our as me draw it as magic suits you. there. smelt southern
9:25 am
europe has long been a top destination for tourists, but record summer temperatures are leading many to rethink their travel plans somewhere now even a swapping mediterranean beaches for northern fjords. let's take a look now at some of the cool locations that have become travel hot spots, rocky ice capped mountains on 12 1st comes to mind from finding the summer holiday . but more and more tourists are choosing to avoid the sweltering temperatures in southern europe this summer and the heading north instead of waiting to get over here to escape the heat. norway caught our attention a long time ago with its green landscapes, mountains and ice side. yeah, and on up as you put the your to protect our planet and that also has consequences on tourism. and other of us, the nation is that i would perhaps have like much more like america or other places . and that is what it is too hot that it's cold, but no way,
9:26 am
it's wonderful novel to do it for this. and it's sweet and then way have seen in up to can tourist, seeking a cool cation and alternative to heart of a crowded beaches. it is a boon for the local economy, but also poses a new challenge for small remote nordic villages. the w as opposed to the most the most worried about is that too many people come here at once. the ship behind us has 6000 passengers in 2000 crew involved. this is a small village. around 300 people live here in winter. i mean, you have this hampton law hands instead of the wonderful that the man, this guy meant them. as a temperature is across europe, rise here on yeah, the cool cation trend looks set to continue. when you
