a moment we'll go live to rob mcbride in hong kong 1st though with our story. in a hong kong neighborhood hardest hit by battles between protesters and police voters in cast last minute just moments before the polls closed on a record breaking day for hong kong elections the highest voter turnout ever after nearly 6 months of violent. stray sions the polling was seen as a way for voters to officially take sides in this deeply divided city of 7000000 back the probating candidates and hong kong government or those who support greater democratic freedoms for hong kong in line with the protesters who have been fighting to push back on what they see as an increasing control for mainland china . this election into not to hong kong the older generation has 1st to believe that the only generation hopes for change i think more people are actually coming out to have a say in what they want rather than. like some other countries cities that are

leaving. like china to decide what we want for hong kong it's usually a sleepy election to select a low level local government positions but many woke up early to vote as there was concern that unrest could mean the polling could be cut short for the pro-democracy camp is about a vote of confidence on no confidence on the kerry government and on the excess use of police force against protesters but a probation camp there was say this is also a de facto referendum on the protests and the violence by 130 in the afternoon more voters had cast their ballots than the final count in the 2015 district council election there was an uneasy calm during the few days leading up to the election just a week after some of the worst violence in these nearly 6 months of protests that's mainly because both sides view this election is critical to their cause. funk kongs leader harry lam while casting her vote recognize the challenging times for the

city and the importance of peaceful election. injured she has served 3 terms as a district councillor he's vowing for his for the pro-democracy candidate was brutally attacked earlier this month parts of his ear were bitten off howard. can have a very strong and create. anthony the beijing of 14 and also the international community that's the home from people a state stand firm together trying to keep on the fight for freedom and democracy even though more people voted than ever before and this is a significant election much more still needs to be done to mend the divisions in hong kong got harder al-jazeera hong kong. let's bring in rob mcbride now who's in hong kong the count is on the way is it too soon to give us any indication of any trends at all rob. stan we are getting in the

last hour or so the 1st preliminary results it is still early days it difficult to make any sweeping predictions but it has to be said that all of these initial results seem to be going in the direction of the pro-democracy camp now we've had around 16 percent of the $450.00 or so seats returned there has to be said that these are political limb unary results based on the 1st count they don't become official until there is a 2nd count but of the seats that have been counted so far then 69 have gone to the pro-democracy camp and only 8 have gone to the establishment camp now as a said these are early days but those are significant victories for the pan democrats they will be encouraged by this and they will be delighted by this if this trend continues through the night and more seats are returned just all of those of those seats of those initial results that have come in with the of mention

is jimmy sham he was a one of the leaders of the organization that has organized these massive demonstrations through hong kong you'll recall 2000000 people marching for this in this protest movement in june he has won a seat he was contending a seat tonight also less to shum he was a name that people may recall from the umbrella movement the occupy movement of 5 years ago one of the initial student leaders here in hong kong he has won a seat tonight as more results come in over the next one to 2 hours stan rob but what you're describing there and given that record turnout is clearly an early stages but clearly big support for pro-democracy and the flipside of that is that it is loss of support for kerry land and the hong kong government and further to that beijing itself. absolutely i mean we know that there has been

a massive push to get people to register some people voting for the very 1st time and there have been hundreds of thousands of younger voters registering and then turning out so this will be a big support for the pro-democracy movement here in hong kong they have said that you can see the opposition to the local government here and by association to the rule from beijing by the numbers of people who have taken out to the streets in these mass demonstrations now we have it in the form of this ballot it is for the pro-democracy camp the best type of referendum just to prove the strength of feeling here remains to be seen what the local government here will make of this how they will respond and whether they will be allowed to give any of the concessions that are being demanded by this movement and whether beijing will allow them to make any concessions that all remains to be seen as done rob thank you for

that rob mcbride live from hong kong where ballots are also being counted in guinea-bissau presidential election. is seeking reelection there his 1st term was marred by infighting and accusations of corruption vast faces strong opposition including 2 prime ministers that he dismissed during his 5 years in office you're live now nicholas hark in the capital. you were describing throughout the day that what people are looking for here nicolas is some stability and when you look at the candidates and the rivalry it appears that that's unlikely what they going to get. well that's right because all of these candidates are vying to become the president but there's a problem with the constitution itself because the president doesn't hold all the power it's the government the prime minister that holds the decision power of deciding the laws of deciding budgets the president is almost like a figure

a figurehead but he's at the head of the powerful military that has been behind so many of the coup attempts that we've seen in the past then i just want to show you what's happening right now i'm at a polling station and the police station just closed about an hour ago and look at the people right behind me what they're doing is observing what's happening here at the polling station people counting the vote now this is democracy in action in guinea bissau it's often described by some analyst as a failed state by others law enforcement agency as a norco state because it's believed that latin american drug traffickers use this country as. a place to transit cocaine to europe and that politicians and the military profit from this state now today we've seen one of the most peaceful elections or transitions of power the 1st peaceful transition of power since going to be sales history and joining me now is really a body who is part of

a good governance organization here and getting the cell you've been observing the vote since the beginning of the day what have you seen so far basically we're from the civil society the cells of the civil society which is. formed by 5 different initiatives. that have monitors all over the country monitoring the letter process what we could. report to you today is that the elections. process has been smooth and these elections with regards to the elections i. running smoothly and we noticed we've been reported that women have bigger affluence of women and people with disabilities. turning out to the polls and that's a win situation for us from the civil society because those were the keys in the

key indicators that we were looking at now what's important now is the count of the vote and also if the candidates will accept the election results what do you make of that. i believe that my bring a little bit of tension but. considering that. people are engaging ever so ever more in this process i think. that wouldn't that will not be a big issue at the end of the day and this is something that really surprised me as we followed this campaign is that so many young people the majority of voters are 1st time voters have come to see the whole electoral process despite the politically elite being unstable and the corruption that you have in this country how do you explain that how do explain the gauged of young people in this like color. basically the. young people are more aware in our days facebook's instagram.

that would last nicholas they sell moving on to the united states one of america's richest man has just the rights for the white house former new york mayor michael bloomberg is joining in already crowded democratic field he says he's running for president to defeat donald trump and rebuild the america now kristen salumi as more . mike bloomberg party affiliation has changed since he was a republican mayor of new york but his opposition to donald trump has been consistent trump says he wants to run the nation like he's running his business god help us the 77 year old billionaire has funneled millions of dollars of his personal fortune into progressive causes like gun control and climate change but is considered a moderate and were he to run as a democrat a potential threat to former vice president joe biden were he fits sort of an even

keeled even tempered political leader with a track record of getting things done in the city of new york with the specially with 2 you can on the key issues economic development and and and think things of that sort which has a certain amount of appeal to more moderate. mainstream type democratic voters bloomberg has expressed his dissatisfaction with the current field of democrats suggesting some are too far to the left to beat the president who shrugged off speculation the former mayor would enter the race little michael will. spend a lot of money michael bloomberg made his fortune here at bloomberg to help lead the financial information a media company with the co-founder he's the richest man in new york with far exceeding president trumps but among some democrats that could be a liability what we need is a dynamic democracy particularly among the party base not the billionaire who just

started a walk for the run for president of the united states while bloomberg may be targeting . white suburban voters who went for trump in 2016 he recently apologized for a policy that put him at odds with the minority community called stop and frisk many saw this police tactic as a form of racism and harassment. i got something important wrong i got something important really wrong i didn't understand that back them the full impact that stocks were having on the black and latino communities an apparent recognition of the need to unify the opposition and a late apology that appears aimed at smoothing the way for a late entry in the race kristen salumi al jazeera new york. let's discuss this more now with bret brewer who was the director of global engagement in the white house under president obama is now the president of the consultancy firm global situation room he joins us live on skype from alexandria in the u.s.

state of virginia nice to have you with us if you line up donald trump a moscow bloomberg bloomberg used to be republican to rich old white man tick tick tick tick new york tick some of the similarities way does michael bloomberg believe that he can beat don't trump. well i think 1st and foremost he has to beat the other democratic challengers and at the moment you have 17 candidates who have really failed to distinguish themselves that there are been ups and downs turns in the race none of them really standing out and we still are just under 3 months from the 1st ballots being cast so there is enough time for bloomberg to take some initiative and in fact to to really distinguish himself in this race and as my colleagues who have worked out in iowa on these presidential caucuses mention for barack obama that in january 2008 no one thought barack hussein obama was going to

win iowa let alone to win the presidential race but if that results in that lee a move against donald trump next year in the election is it someone like michael bloomberg they going to be looking to or is it someone who offers an alternative and to that and to that extent who does he represent the greatest threat to among the democratic front runner as he would be joe biden. well i think to your 1st question people are looking for someone who can go toe to toe with trump up until now we've really found to see a politician who's successfully been able to sustain attacks to gain ground against trump when it comes to which of the democrats perhaps bloomberg will take the most votes from sure i think by in people who to judge the mayor of south bend indiana as well as camelot harris who has been losing support steadily and many of the

voters for each of those candidates say that they would be willing to change their mind so i don't think at this stage those votes are locked up it's another interesting aspect of this of course is that he has a navy a company when you have your own media company and you're running as a candidate potential to become president of the united states how do you separate those 2 well here in the u.s. we do cherish this notion of journalistic objectivity and a certain independence there are a number of billionaires who own media companies but those media companies like the washington post or the los angeles times do retain their editorial independence i think that's what you will see from bloomberg i noticed just in the last few minutes that there was an announcement out of bloomberg that at least from the opinion side bloomberg himself as well as the bloomberg. business would not be writing editorials during the election they'll still have contributions from others

but i think you'll see some efforts to put in a fire wall between the campaign and the media company itself but doing good to have you on the program thank you thank you. and there's plenty more ahead on the news hour including house where the conditions delay rescue efforts in western kenya with dozens of killed by floods and landslides. and al-jazeera investigation sheds new light on atrocities against the row hinges. and in sports playing strike early is the evil to win these 6 davis cup title as well the date. rescue efforts are underway in kenya after heavy rain triggered landslides at least 41 people have been killed but the full scale of what happened is still not clear sara reports. these men are assessing the damage caused by saturday's flooding and

landslides in kenya's west because county rescue workers is still pulling bodies from under the months and rubble at present a hurricane yeltsin has said the armed forces to help he promises that every missing person will be accounted for the roads and bridges destroyed rescue efforts have been delayed in many parts of the county. used. to walk long enough for our us to just be able to reach the affected. west because gov has been helping to distribute food parcels you know if. you would. like me. over. other east african countries have also been affected by weeks of heavy downpours several people have been killed in a few and tanzania and hundreds of thousands of others displaced in somalia and

south sudan scientists warn the weather event known as the indian ocean dipole is making the flooding worse this year it happens when the western parts of the indian ocean become significantly warmer than it eastern signs causing increased evaporation and consequently heavy rains across parts of the african continent and they're off it is more of this type of weather is headed to the region sort of height at al-jazeera. to witness the widespread damage there.

get ready. for more let's cross. they stand as far as johnson is promising a triple tax for the next 5 years that means the conservatives went to increase income tax national insurance and. the manifestos of hours to get the breaks it withdraw agreement back propound miter vote before december 25th reports from telford. the conservatives are riding comfortably ahead in the latest opinion polls 47 percent support compared with labour's 28 percent the party faithful greeted boris johnson with a sense of growing belief a belief that the prime minister is happy to promote. i want you to imagine what the country could be like in just 10 years' time if we can get

a working majority on the 12th of december i want you to look forward to a britain where the streets are safer where the air is cleaner where we've built 40 new hospitals is a direct result of the decisions taken in the last 3 months the 59 page manifesto pledges not to increase income tax national insurance tax all the 85 years as more money for child care in road repairs 50000 new nurses and keeping the triple lock guaranteeing increases to the state pension will play well with conservative voters but it remains the central point of this election campaign we will get breaks it down and we will end the at committee and the chaos where they want to rip up our deal and negotiate a new one. but we don't yet know of a single labor m.p. or indeed any other m.p. who would support this deal with tax rises ruled out the conservative plans will be funded by more than $150000000000.00 of borrowing it's

a big ask according to analysts well in a sense the biggest announcement is the promise not to not to do something rather than to do something so that's not to increase rates of income tax national insurance obviates see that's the kind of promise that can come back to you later on if you do need to raise more tax revenues the opposition parties are also critical. to anybody out of the continuation of what we've had for the past 9 years very disappointing the question facing the wavering voters is this manifesto have enough in it. this is a silly thing to stay relatively soft in the minds of issues such as the social there. with the conservatives having sex because the polls are laid the foundation to take a chance to see results are still operates that it's a holy day for just over. 170 african migrants

were burnt down were funneled into what is now the cum complex where 122140000 were injured are basically imprisoned there are concentration camps detention camps it's not intercommunal violence this is the burma state organizing and watching over the destruction of ruins of villages and the rounding up of hundreds of thousands are injured into camps some are going to say they hit their children in graves there's had their babies burned alive but they threw the children into the fire but turned our heads the other way so that we wouldn't see it at the beginning we have never been soft on human rights in this country we must military denies carrying out and murder home and that any the media a lot of news about rakhine state is fake this fabricated news that the military has raped women it's not true and. they raped us right in the paddy field

9090 demonstrators are expressing their anger through slogans and graffiti walls across the capital santiago. that is there she takes us on a tour of the so-called talking wall. in few if any countries has a social explosion left its mark as quickly and pervasively as here you probably all heard the phrase if only the walls could talk well in chile that is exactly what they are doing so i thought it would be interesting to show you exactly what it is that they're say starting with this. meeting eyes represent an unprecedented number of protesters who've lost one or both eyes as a result of being shot by riot police with pellets these walls reflect the evolution of chile's social outburst this was one of the 1st to go viral the time has come chile has awoken no more student loan debt no more a.f.p.

chillies private pension system no more collusion from big business anger against chile's neo liberal economic system could. dominates with slogans like taking a bullet costs less than staying in the system. one of the most widely seen messages is this no more abuses in this case written over the name of president peña while above a more disturbing message that reads at war against order. another one screams let everything burn. anti-establishment graffiti and messages are everywhere this one says kill yourselves of capitalism what a great percentage of what's on these walls targets the riot police and this new one shows the face of the director of the national police with a rope around his neck and underneath it says the night will fall and we will dance
