11:02 am
elections which could decide the future of president manuel, mac crohn's reform agenda. the 1st round showed macro centrist coalition, coming out just to head in a tight race with a newly formed left wing alliance, the president will lead a majority to push through his plans to raise the retirement age and reduce taxes. joan hall is monitoring events for smart side, the polling station in paris. and jonah, there's a great deal at stake here, isn't there? there is, it's not just an election for a new parliament and an election that will determine the face of the new government based on those results. it is crucially and elections that will define the limits of president microns power in his 2nd term to enact reforms in the face of economic crisis at home. and of course, crisis on the world stage as well. because if his centrist grouping ensemble news, their majority in this parliamentary election,
11:03 am
it will be the 1st time since he was elected in 2017. that macro has not had a free hand to do basically whatever he wants. now the results of the 1st round, the voting last, we can point to the possibility that that may happen. they may in fact lose that majority. and that is in large part because of this strong challenge from the new leftist green communist grouping. and a former socialist party to john luke mellon from now set to make real waves as frances main opposition party. and within that are the seeds of real conflict. and division in the next parliament because these are 2 groupings with radically different ideas about what needs to be done in order for us to deal with its problems. the centrists want to see tax is lowered, they want to see the welfare system changed, jobs benefits shaken up. so they want the retirement age raised to pay for it all, essentially to make people work much longer whilst the leftists want the retirement age, knowing they want a minimum wage raised and they want more tax on the richest in terms of the
11:04 am
voters. joe know we often talk about voter apathy across any general election in principle, but in france, vote to turn, i was low last weekend. one does what it's going to be like this weekend. i think it's a real problem. you don't see young people turning up the poles. you see an awful lot of old people and you hear views from voters about anger, apathy this illusion with politics and politicians that low turn up the subject now of much analysis last weekend. fewer than half of all registered voters turn out a majority simply didn't bother. and that looks awful in the results. when you consider that last weekend, the largest grouping, the centrist one, just 11.97 percent of the entire registered electric here in front of france. now the out of this point to potential election fatigue after the presidential in april . they also point as a set to this disillusionment with what is on off
11:05 am
a few big new ideas. and that is a real worry for the centrists for microns grouping in particular, because low turn out if it's repeated this time, and this, not a lot of people around at the moment would tend not to favor the incumbent. of course, we'll check in with you throughout the voting day, joe hope force in power. thanks, janet. now, colombians are preparing to cast their ballots in the most contested presidential election in recent history. the vote comes one year after a security crank down on st protest fuel by deepening socio economic problems. theresa by reports not from bogota on the promises made by the 2 presidential hopefuls who sit on opposite ends of the political spectrum. a book as well as ela, felix, your miss. it's just a few hours away from the elections. i talked to the columbia that is ready to change, that he's ready to make history says quote, that will be thrown in this commercial ag napoleon via v one. this is the 1st time
11:06 am
i left when candidate has made it this far in a presidential campaign, an economist, and also a former gorilla. he promises to fight in equality. we think the war on drugs and overhaul. the tax system was a 1000000 plus. so good would we propose in the medium term, his food sovereignty, an energy sovereignty based on clean energy, a process the disconnect says from the economy that i call fossil coal in oil, and which connects us to the agriculture and in industrialization policy. make sure now what he's with us, challenger is a 77 year old business man known as the king of take talk to little foot. amanda shocked the country by making it to this sunday selection. he has based his campaign on attacking corrupt politicians, who he says have failed the columbian people at a man. this is the former may europe who got a manga and many compare his political style to donald trump's. v, as in where they warn you them on june 19th, we have
11:07 am
a commitment with columbia. we have waited years to get the corrupt out of office side. on june 19th, we can begin to rewrite the new history of columbia, mark like this on the voting cart. you look into my eyes, read my lips, i will not fail. you both candidates promise change, but the elections has people here on the edge. security forces are on high alert for potential political violence. some radical groups have said that they won't acknowledge the result of sunday's roles, and that's why thousands of soldiers and police officers have been deployed across the country to guarantee the safety of the electoral process. protest last year against tax races and health care reform, left dozens dead and hundreds injured ethos with this birth look, it could be the protest showed we had serious and resolved social issues before the pandemic in the cities where the majority lived in the informal sector. when the economy was closed because of the pandemic, many last at all, it continues to be
11:08 am
a time bomb. and that's why the challenge now is to start addressing all those issues. the winner will inherit a country with solid economic growth, but deep social troubles. troubles that had been ignored for too long. but he said, well, as a seed at border, now dozens of people are known to have died in floods in bangladesh and northeast and india. millions of people have been effected since there was flooding in bangladesh or more than a century, but both countries of called in the army to help with rescue efforts. their affairs are further flooding with more heavy rain forecast. well, following events for us in color in buying militia, tanveer, cerio, correspondent who's standing by tongue. let's just begin with the situation in bangladesh and how the authorities are managing in terms of the rescue and the response effort. very challenging environment
11:09 am
that lives, that power has been restored to some extent and the rain stops since last night. that has really helped the situation right now. but still many people, especially in the remote villages, are still marrow and they're desperately trying to rescue this. people, many of the homes actually totally washed away, even within the city centers. the flood many of the hospitals got inundated with flat water, which is complicating situation for the rescue people at least those who are harmed or hard during the flood. as far as the military and maybe goes there right now, very much concentrating and rescuing people who are in my room. but people are also in desperate need for fresh water and food. i mean there is really a major challenge right now, particularly when you go into the sean. i'm going to valley of the phillip division . it is a basically a lake area. so a lot of this village are very remote just to reach them itself is challenge whether many of the houses are still there is
11:10 am
a chris question. you get understanding context. so let just select an india, not this experience, a major flood just end of last month somewhere and then they may. so they're just covered when we have the 2nd waiver of the flood unit 7. 1 didn't last may during the flood that at least 1500000 children in this flood effected areas are prone to via water. brawn disease as malnutrition and even drowning. so obviously a very much challenging environment. the forecast says that it could possibly rain . it's a monsoon season, if it rains again and if there is a torrential rain, things could again get worse, a d j. you mentioned still it better for you, as of course that's in the northeast of bung the dash and to the north is india. they too, have had the same problem because the weather doesn't recognize international borders. the water that's in india inevitably comes through, but that's, but india has its own problems to in date ended the
11:11 am
state of not based on state of our mega law. and all of this states are encountering flood. and this is also the 2nd wave flowed in mega lion farm. so i'm particularly is badly hid daddy deployed military to rescue people. the area called go ha, t and camper and cockroach are very badly affected in people, or at least around 10000 people are rendered homeless. so a similar situation and the weather pattern are similar. both are some mega le and the bang or the state division of phillip have some of the highest rainfall in the world. so whatever flood water comes in our summer mega le has to come down to sell at valley and into the bail bengal. so they're really intertwine and they could make a system where they could actually predict flooding, bangor, that's from indian side. when they encountered flood, this hasn't been happening. it could really actually prepared people for such flat . but this has been one of the worst flat, and the rain is very interacting due to prime and patterns and very heavy,
11:12 am
torrential rain which make things very challenging for both the countries right now . of course, we'll continue to check in with you through the day to do that for us in bangladesh . not least 5 people have been killed in southern china, which is also things of a storms. the amount of rain in some areas has been the heaviest and 60 is it's triggered flooding in cities and months lives in rural areas that ample is expected to continue and to early next week to north africa. my protest as into nicea are expected to rally again on sunday, against the president's plans for a constitutional referendum next month. the opposition's, as i said, is trying to tighten his report and the threatening to boycott. the vote. site is all parliament and the seem to get the power lines. chip is also sacked, dozens of judges prompting them to call a national strike, which is entering. it's the week that i'm in the fall and it is that the
11:13 am
constitution was written in the dark. we don't recognize it. spring was something the, all the chosen parties of the people. i want support one written by the president. no, it's got to be met today. the tennessee and people don't have anything to wait. the simple employee can no longer manage. and the president claims he's helping the paypal. what does he done for the people? he's destroyed the people. that's the war in ukraine where president brother ins. lensky has visited the southern front lines, city of calliope, where he's inspected damage buildings and awarded metal to doctors and service personnel that he was shall buy from fulton on friday. that leads to people were killed. so then he also met troops and what appeared to be an underground shelter and toward the destroyed administration building, where a missiles strike killed. 37 people in march, russian forces moved close to mc live at the start of the invasion, but were then driven back to the edges of the region where fighting is going. still

11:15 am
portugal and probably western front. but this is still very warm, is prague at 38 caves is approaching the 30 mark the heat so long as i think in ukraine as elsewhere, things start to cool down at paris. still stays warm. so to degrees dropping to 23 in back up 28 again, but not as hot as it has been, which is near 40. i have to say, so this is a picture then during monday the cloud, the rain per south was we dropped prior to $29.00 venue to $31.00, but they want is pushed further eastwards and it hasn't entirely gone elsewhere. i mean, one of the worst paced affected because the heat started farther present. ne of spain. i got a still at $36.00 even there will be more cloud and rain. this is also on monday. so the picture then is still a hot one for that part of space and probably a good part of france as well at all of north africa. but look at the difference here. this is, does it in the west? west? sour, martini and yet is rain, significant? rain? that's a rare event. vishal allies of the journey. salaam
