we have the highest inequality of income and wealth what we've seen is that we will want to focus shrunk so people are now dependent on. economic activity and what is a result there is such widespread. they are very few people well it will make on to me and so you have a very negative cycle of poverty which reinforces. my thanks and thanks hello again the headlines on al-jazeera in just under 2 hours from now the u.s. president donald trump and his democratic challenger joe biden go head to head and the 1st of 3 televised presidential debates trumps taxes are likely to take center stage as well as race issues the coronavirus pandemic and the economy more from john hendren was at the debate sites in ohio. we can expect donald trump to be on

the attack he's the one lagging in the polls so he's going to want to mix up the dynamic he's going to want people to leave this debate saying wow joe biden messed up or donald trump made some good points for he is likely to play a much safer role he's a guy who's been ahead in the polls he's been campaigning largely from his delaware home recently getting out a little more but he's got he's going up against a dangerous opponent because donald trump in the words of a piece. he's like going up against a chimp with a machine gun 40 days of mourning have been declared across coates following the death of its emir. his 83 year old brother the crown prince will be sworn in on wednesday you modify the crown prince has always been known for his prudence honesty did occasion in devotion to serve for the benefit of kuwait and the kuwaiti

people to be the best to the based and. latin america is the worst coronavirus affected region in the world with $9200000.00 confirmed cases being attributed to several factors including poor government measures inequality and a lack of health care resources leaders in some nations most notably brazil and mexico have openly disregarded public health guidelines south africa has lost more than 2000000 jobs the biggest fall on record it came during one of the strictest coronavirus lockdowns in the world almost 21000000 people were unemployed in june many couldn't look for work because of the restrictions in the countries reported 60671000 cases and around 16000. those are the headlines more news coming up at the top of the hour after one. hi i'm steve clemons and i have a question because these days it's hard to filter out the noise and keep track of

what's really important the bottom line tackles the big issues this is shaking the united states its people its economy and the way it deals with the rest of the world the bottom line only on al-jazeera. it was not only. vents on the ice cover yards track to implement it's all age cattle kids. or. a stray liest summer bush fires burnt through millions of hectors destroying whole properties and lives. months on some survivors are still without running water or a warm place to sleep. existing literally existing and it's just as

ridiculous i don't know how. i'm here we do it honestly. does it surprise you that all those months on papers by sickening still not being met i'll have to yes yes it's very very surprising and dismay. as a new fire season approaches one o one east follows a community trying to rebuild in the aftermath of one of australia's worst disasters. early this morning we have a delivery of 271000 later water tanks which are going to be distributed throughout

the shire. people have been coming in all day picking them up on their trials and yet it's been pretty busy today. for months hundreds of people in and around go have been leaving without access to one of life's most basic necessities moore said. the stone nation of $207.00 tanks is a huge relief. kris walters who runs the local relief center has the hard task of working out who needs one of these tanks the most people are using bottled water or they're bringing in 20 later containers of water to refill up here at the showground and that's all the work of course because the whole war infrastructure has been burnt so they have no water. this tank will mean everything to capt healy and rightful hatten who've been living in a caravan with nor running water since losing their house in the fire on new year's

eve. tamara reduce. the stress is off to set a little bit more we can have a share we can wash up. we don't have to stress it's one thing. for building a bad eye huge be it really is. when i came in during the last 5 months existing literally existing because day to day is just so hard if you get up in the morning as for the great like it's cold. you go to get water you go to feed the animals. and it's just it's ridiculous i don't know how. and here we do it.

i don't even know what the quality. of the. captain right chill is still in need of simple things like blankets and warm clothes the relief center has become a lifeline we. think they will make me. the most is a good one. danielle murphy runs the center alongside chris walters they've both volunteers coming out of it. we provide a bit of a gathering place for people who come in looking for assistance and for material help but also it helps with a mental health i think the people can still feel part of the community even though particularly coronavirus times they're feeling very isolated. like. danielle is a punk rocker who made the change from you know city sydney to kabongo 16 years ago

she's now a key part of the bushfire relief if it. then you know who the generators would be coming there for small businesses to get permits for everybody this is going on that's not really say that it's a project you need to get chris about half just wake up my computer and put it straight only then we require a different path and we're going to split the projects otherwise we both go mad. and yell and i had never met before the 1st week of january we live in the same town but with quite different ages we have different interests and so forth and it just grew it just grew out of necessity ad of just sort of we were the last men standing when the other volunteers or had to go off to their other lives after the 1st influx of people and volunteers when the bushfires 1st happened. we like. 2 heads one brain it's

a lovely little tag team we've got going. and so you know we call between ourselves you know chrissie is the efficiency department you know she would be you know as i'm a little bit more chaotic i think together we combine to you know i've become this really successful working taina. and i want to be 11010. goodness. 3 to be rewarded one of the army were here yeah. yeah yeah without sounding soppy about it we want to help people we do want to help people but we with really feel it's important that we study the distance to help people because we've developed relationships with people and they can come in and they know that they talking to a friendly face and someone that i've probably same before and we're here for

a little home. we are trying to live together and see them. i've taken out some new songs to step up and take them back. to the next place. i like to stand. back. to be a great deal to have him. during the. time can't you don't you know. anything by. yourself unless. you're starting to bloom. i don't know when i'm going to get. something.

and boy it's thing that's the same so back i bet it's a good time yeah that's what we mean. stefan tell matzke is a homeopath moved from germany to a stray bullet he uses. the mud brick home he built by hand was destroyed in a fire is. the boer war was he like donetsk or syria. or the allied bombings of germany the pictures i know. this privately. and said of course. he's been given to wear that caravans in

a shipping container to see him through the winter like many in the area he was uninsured he's been given $50000.00 from the red cross to bray build an 8 $1000.00 from the state government to replace his appliances have you found it hard to ask for help yeah i never though that the one thing. i was always reluctant to do this and now i've become a hunter gatherer i grab everything i mean done here and chris they help bring your whatever literally i ask for something that was hard but not terribly hard you know. i could combine it with a certain. for uninsured people it's you know overwhelming and when they're being given these

grants and you know they're trying to hang on to every last cent. you know they try not to spend because they know that that is the one and only opportunity that they have to rebuild it and a lot of those times they will never ever get it back to a level that it was and. yes my heart goes out to the. fire roared through bargo only using. 2 days later prime minister scott morrison came to see the devastation. on the net out of the ride down for the yankees was the family business of a lot of the bengals gallery i believe it was some of those guys a house

a house size we're talking about are you going. to get a small looking this regime that i think that he did you on the other side of. the former man local dairy farm a tiny island showed the payam around the relief center where bush 5 victims had set up camp. where i was by the where the prime minister was coming and daria i thought well you know this could be good for us because we needed help we needed help from whoever we could get help from we were we were we were smashed. but the visit turned into one of the most politically charged moments of the summer was originally was was. going to build up next to this and downtown doesn't sound doesn't have a lot of money but we have pots of gold mr prime minister. i was exhausted i hadn't

slept i fought fires i still had asked my hair bits of melted plastic and i was just this in eyes sense of outrage that the little paper a very much overlooked in in any disaster it's. gail's i was enraged. it's really really hard to tell really good but for now you need it right you really have to get any right sanjay gandhi was really it was quite yeah thank you ira i don't think it was hard for it was just god was. i think. it was unfortunate something i. regret having been part of but and you know i'm sure what he did what he did to you you think you're doing the

right thing by the community there are some people who at 1st were angry at my outburst now see how hard i work and realize that it was never. in it was never my intention to stage a personal price protest or get on television or anything like that it was. just a frustration. for people's needs not been met all this and 2. months on from the prime minister's visit the devastation still stretches for hundreds of kilometers around. while billions have been pledged for bushfire recovery a common feeling here is that the response from big charities government and politicians hasn't been good enough.

you know it's me also the politicians of different by i've put it all stripes and saying the same here it's saying the beverage is fair here and the say that just haven't responded because it's time that it was such a the scale of this is huge and the response to that has got to be huge as well not just i think it has been. dave allen runs the only pub in town. but i think. it was his dad tony allen who showed the pay him around the relief center 1st and we're going to let you. dive site of the hotel from the fire as it tore through the shops nearby he's still traumatized. the 1st few weeks to get out of sleep. you'd stop crying. you

know over time you start crying. but that you know you gradually work your way through that and then get it getting back to work was important for me and getting something to do and not focusing on what happened and focusing on what we can do to you know move forward and get the place going into that help but the people who didn't have a job to go to all but lost the high and just lost a sense of being satisfied baker i guess was really really tough. he talks to bush 5 victims every day and he's shocked at the conditions some a still living in. still looked like he was coming he getting meals he was sleeping in a car she had a caravan but she couldn't sleep in a caravan because she had a back complaint so she had to sleep in a you know people still you have to get saw that 2 degrees or so to get to the toilet from and they all caravans and are just on understand with all the money

that was done i did through various charities all the government assistance that these people still living rough and it is going to be more people just virtually give up because i just don't i don't have any hope and this could go on for years. i think because the disaster was so huge that the government bodies and i didn't see as who would have stepped up and have tried to step up have just not been equipped that were never equipped to deal with such an enormous disaster i also think that grants and that sort of thing the applications it just almost impossible for people who are suffering severe trauma to feel i wish. none of those forms a simple and there's a lot of are it's just too hard i'll give up i just can't do these there's a lot of that happening or has happened. on jade colby's mean one dela north of the cleanup is finally getting

started. state and federal governments are paying contract is to clear people's blogs. to go home and so goods on the go we've talked on the phone yet this is the facts. jade is showing me a sis's through what remains of his home that's there has just 3 yeah and study hall and that was the old dairy yeah it's just a shed these days ok yeah there was nothing left every fence on the price kerry odds. tractor implements. solid shy and cattle sheds to harass. well cars have been placed in for a lot of years old fords. own just

been farming in the area for 4 generations. this is mom and dad's here this is where we were brought up i'm going to build this themselves with a builder because the 3 of them. are things i want to own about. 3 or 4 someone that. is a far better in college i'm here so it was serious kids. if you were. 5 jade's family also lost their homes in the fire. just over hill the sister's place more plus the next ridge just through there we all lost our place when artie the next ridge over sort of just saw he another rod it behind me. so there was 4 of us 4 of us lost homes and he and them

a pop lost his tear us into an air 6001 family yeah it. was lisa. he's tagging what he thinks he can salvage. the wrist will be sold for scrap metal or end up in the tip was. that they be on a god in one of them with a typewriter i can't remember it was not. this

tractor of yours. down with it did you want to go in this crap or yeah if it brought to. its goods one step closer i feel better about scientologists it's also been emotional to wince when there. is not much left anyway but. it's it's a positive. look in the future looking forward. warren selway has years of work ahead of him to rebuild his farm. it's not just the fences he lost 2 houses 5 sheds the stock yards and $150.00 cash.

we lost in excess of $1300000.00 in. in infrastructure all of. the cattle would insured the fences were insured one house was in insured and 3 of the 4 sheds were insured so. we copped it but. didn't have an insured you can afford to insure everything you've got but your premiums assigned much you you know you draw in some way or. warren lost a lot more than his property in the fire his brother rub it in if you patrick killed defending. it i got caught in a panic like this ali 30 metres from the house you know i don't like it should not

happen but i got people affordable and you know i didn't experience of i had plenty of 4 but i didn't have. a family was just be by the trees are going to work so the thing. that was. pretty had to do with. that you know he just got to move on having to what do they. call b. was a friend of the men who died i'm so sorry about the loss of robert patrick souray what impact has that had on the community here.

and i'll comment on. you know all 4 people died from the fires around kabongo. over the past months people here have been quietly rebuilding their lives family focused on the future. how long do you think it's going to take for you to get back on a fait. accompli probably should have everything back to somewhere near how you feeling about that when you think about what you got ahead of a. lot of the read too much of. a

lot of people have at the beginning not been forthcoming with asking for help but we find now that they're actually coming true in sign actually i'm not i can i and i i do need a bit of help. and we try to do that in a way that you know. preserves a person's dignity because that's a person's pride in their dignity should be something they should always be able to retire don't forget about us we're still struggling it's going to take a very very very long time for the bushfire affected people and countryside and villages and corner me to recover if in fact some of them have a job. and yet just they with us work with us stay with
