8:21 pm
which really don't chime with ordinary people. while they're not going to be able to say, if these polls are accurate, that many people agree with them more than a quarter of berlin as who voted would appear to endorse that position. so as a say they will be though, certainly tomorrow looking back on what has happened today saying, yeah, the conservatives appear to be putting forward policies which chime with the electorate. all right, thank you so much. donna came reporting from berlin's. mass of wildfires are burning and chilly. central regions at least 24 people have died. the fires of destroy more than a 1000 homes. police of arrested 20 people who are suspected of arson or line america editor. the c newman has the latest from calvary, you know, i'm in so central chile, near the town of godaddy, nor here in the allegheny or region where you can see that the forest fires are out of control. look up here. there is a helicopter trying to throw buckets of water it's. it's like nothing compared to
