motivated ideologically motivated just don't pay attention to the people's demands where do you think the movement is heading. well that's a very good question that does move and actually started a month ago with a big protest against the cuts in education on the 15th of may it dulls of it as being gaining much range since then. the process a month ago were huge and not so much today or they're about the same size they're calling for protests in that in the following months but we also have movements in support of the government we had one last month and there's another one scheduled for the end of this month on the like 30 so it's hard to say where the movement is going by the government has its own its own troubles with with the congress and its ministers does this protest movement if it is a movement in

reforms in the near future or in into even in the medium term i think if we're looking at some pension reform probably by the end of the year or early next year and that's going to be a big struggle for the government which is our old gerald. thanks very much thank you. a u.k. court will decide in february if julian assange should be extradited to the united states the founder of wiki leaks is wanted in america for conspiring to hack government computers and leaking thousands of secret documents john a hole has the story. of julian assange watched via video link as the date was set for his extradition hearing the wiki leaks founder said to be in poor health and serving a 50 week sentence for bail violations would have to wait until february 2020 for a full hearing on the u.s. request this case raises such fundamental questions about freedom of speech we heard in court today it's an outrageous affront to journalistic protections and on

massacre 30 years ago this month kind of did point out that there historically hong kong is known as a city of protesters but many say this latest round has a specific goal blocking the extradition bill in this case and even though the opposition to the extradition that was about much more than just the bill that is the clear target in many ways i think what's happening now is a little more focused. many here say the umbrella movement failed in its drive to push back against greater control by beijing and with protesters preparing for sunday's new march against extradition many are determined this time things will be different scott harder al jazeera own cause. still to come for you here on the news i will tell you why this anger against a regional force deployed to provide security. also ahead hidden away the migrants being kept by the u.s. government and what's being called a concentration camp. and the sports teams will you know what this world cup legend
