11:07 am
investigation it was thought they were all chinese nationals but some vietnamese families are reported to have raised concerns about the welfare of their relatives including the family of a 26 year old woman who they believe could have been inside the container the deputy chief constable of ethics police gave this updates we owe it to those who died to get this investigation right and speculation is not helpful it may in fact hinder round 1st occasion in its progress. if not commenting on any speculation about the nationalities of those who have tragically lost their lives well this clearly is becoming an international investigation involving the belgian or thought is where the lorry came from and also the chinese authorities who are pushing the british police to find out exactly what happened and the focus really is on trying to find out where the lorry started its journey and how those people came to be on it in the 1st place the u.s. court says the secret portions of rubble as reported must be released to congress

look included a 2 year investigation into russian disappearance in the 2016 presidential election earlier this year but large sections of his findings were withheld by the justice department kristen salumi has more from washington. democrats are particularly interested in any information in that report that could pertain to a possible obstruction of justice charge against the president and you may recall that the moller report found that there was russian interference in the 2016 election but insufficient evidence to show that president trampers team were involved in any way he also left open the question of possible obstruction of justice for how president trump handled that investigation his efforts to stifle it remember he fired f.b.i. director james comey that raised a lot of questions in the possibility of charges there but the special counsel said that he could not charge the president because it was justice department policy not
11:09 am
to charge a sitting president that's the responsibility of congress congress wanted to go there now the judge is saying they can indeed go there and have access to all this information that was withheld by attorney general william barr this is a major victory for democrats in addition to getting access to all of that information the judge validated the impeachment inquiry in the 1st place now the president and republicans have painted this inquiry as a sham accused democrats of not following procedures because they haven't held a formal vote to have an impeachment inquiry but the judge said that was incorrect that there was ample case history to allow the integrated go forward into these investigators have found both. pilots were to blame for last year's playing grudge which killed everyone on board the boeing sophistries of an explosion into the sea will of the 2 accidents that led to the aircraft being grounded worldwide victoria can be ripples. it's taken these investigators
11:10 am
a year to determine exactly what happened in the final moments of line of flight $610.00 the final crash report blames a combination of factors including design flaws in boeing 737 max jet as well as maintenance problems and. in adequate pilot training. line a plane crashed into the java sea 12 minutes after takeoff from indonesia's capital jakarta all 189 people on board died including anton so hardy's cousins he says he's disappointed with the report's conclusions. we actually had big hopes that the government would answer all our questions but the information we've been given adds almost nothing to what we already know the report highlights problems with boeing's anti stall software known as n. cas it's also implicated in a similar crash in ethiopia in monch which led to the grounding of the max fleet worldwide it's significant because it sort of reaffirms that boeing does share
11:11 am
responsibility for this for the way they designed the in care system which is the maneuvering characteristic saying that basically took control of way from the pilots in the pilots were having to fight the airplane pilots flying the line a jets had reported problems the day before it crashed and they say it should have been grounded for further tests i mean i feel that safety is not yet the core concern in indonesia except for the flag carrier airlines i'm worried about the private aviation companies because even though on paper they're checked by safety inspectors accidents keep happening boeing has already paid a high price the 2737 max crashes within 5 months its chief executive was fired and the company's income has hogged engineers have been forced to redesign software and boeing needs to convince aviation regulators the grounded jets all safe to take off

decide on prime minister boris johnson's call for snap elections on december the 12th and hopes to win a majority and pass the divorce deal he reached with even leaders next week but we'll hear from lawrence leigh shortly from london but 1st here's rory chalons he's in brussels. over 2 meetings in brussels this week ambassadors from $27.00 different e.u. countries the $28.00 the u.k. not of course being included in these discussions have gathered together to try to work out whether there's going to bree abraxane extension and if so for how long now they are most of the way there but the final hurdle gyration still to be cleared as they broke up on friday they said that there was full agreement on the need for an extension that was for the green went to reach a unanimous consensual the u 27 decision and there was full agreement that this should be done by written procedure and that there was no real need to get the leaders of these countries together in a meeting but they are going to keep on talking over the weekend when they broke up
11:25 am
on friday they haven't yet decided to how long this extension would be for and they will perhaps make this decision they said on monday or tuesday of next week they're basically waiting for a sign from london as to whether or not there is going to be a general election in the u.k. which is strange because in london they're basically waiting for some kind of indication from brussels about how long the extension is going to be. well if you think that bracks it's ridiculous some afraid i'm here to tell you that it has now entered the realms of the completely absurd bars johnson the prime minister has demanded but whether or not parliament back and vote through his breakfast deal agreed with the european union the next week or 2 he says there must be a general election in the u.k. on december the 12th and the opposition labor party having insisted for months that there must be an election is now saying it cole supports that election on december
11:26 am
the 12th unless and until a no deal bracks it is ruled out by the european union to date anyway because it's in the depths of winter and difficult for people to vote in rural parts of the country and so on and so in just the same way that the european union is saying it can't guarantee an extension to breakfast until it knows what the u.k. wants to do so the u.k. parliament is saying it counts agree on anything until it gets the extension from the european union so the 2 sides are in this ridiculous standoff with each other so on monday when all this is going to come to a vote if as you like at the moment the government loses the votes on the election on december the 12th boris johnson's government has threatened simply to back all its toys up and walk away and not take part in any sort of government business other than asking over and over again for an election on december the 12th it has led to a number of commentators accusing boris johnson acting like a spoiled petulant child all of this is obviously got to come to a head or come to
11:27 am
a conclusion anyway by next thursday october 31st which is the current deadline and so since the european has a letter asking for an extension by then you have to assume it's going to get it but honestly the view from europe i think must be that the politicians here are behaving as much like children as anything else. the u.s. has imposed sanctions on zimbabwe's state security minister accusing him of involvement in gross human rights violations secretary of state my palm poses washington is troubled by the zimbabwean government's use of violence against protesters and opposition leaders is likely to say the anger supporters of the runes only p.s. have been demanding an end to the long running international sanctions who would toss a house more than harare. some troubled overnights to guitar in time for the anti sanctions march organized by zimbabwe's government they want the removal of sanctions imposed by the european union and united states many here feel they still are being punished by the west because of land reforms by former president robert

well installed so is the u.s. techno portal for the telegraph newspaper he says the relationship between facebook and traditional media outlets has been damaged in recent years. whether it satisfies them will remain to be seen i think there's a lot we worked out about the precise financial formula that it was going to work and one thing there hasn't been any certainty on in muslims and it's gushing today with news executives is whether this is actually a viable way to fund news media in the future how much difference this can really make to any industry which is financially into your plan. journalism is a reason to distrust facebook on this because just had to settle a case about the illegitimate inflation of video metrics which many journalists blame for destroying whole newsrooms destroying jobs and as their organizations chased these sort of metrics that turned out to be true so it's unclear what happened but there's at least grounds here for a real problem and you can see that in those meeting with the times and the chief
