lou ah, watching out there with me, it is with random, doha reminder about top stories. the sour israeli ami radios reporting that ford palestinians have been killed in an army raid in the occupied west bank. com days after 2 israeli settlers was shot dead and what only a 5 palestinians, including a 2 year old child, was injured in an attack by israeli settlers in the occupied west bag. the settlers will film singing and dancing with soldiers after the attack. and thousands of french workers are on strike and a protest against the president's plan to raise the baton at age. from 62 to 64 teachers transport stop and sanitation workers have worked off the job. british
5:18 pm
empire, a debating a bill aimed at curbing the numbers of undocumented migrants arriving on british shores. that is to fulfill the prime minister's promise to deport any one entering illegally. the home secretary said the volume of illegal survivals had overwhelmed the system and was part of a larger global migration problem. in the coming years, developed countries will face unprecedented levels with precious, from ever greater numbers of people leaving the developing world for places like the united kingdom. unless we act to day, the problem will be worse to morrow. and the problem is already unsustainable. the opposition labor party says the proposed bill will only make the problem worse . the government has allowed criminal gangs to take home bags along the channel and along our border at the same time. convictions that people smugglers
5:19 pm
have hauled movies, asylum decisions have collapsed down 40 percent. the backlog and costly, inappropriate hotel use have sword removals of unsuccessful asylum seekers are down 80 percent on the left labor government and the legal family reunion. baez's for refugees are down 40 percent. this is deeply damaging chaos. well, let's take a closer look at this proposed law. it will allow the government to port any one who went as the country without authorization. they would be sent to what the government considers a safe 3rd country. a deal was recently signed with rolanda to receive some of those who was sent away. once to puerto, these people would be banned for life from returning to the u. k. claim in asylum, or even seeking british citizenship in the future. rights groups have criticize the plan saying it violates commitments the u. k. has made on the human rights treaties
5:20 pm
. the un refugee convention recognizes people fleeing persecution may have to use irregular means rate safety. and they can not be penalize for doing so. over to our correspondent charlie angela. she's joining us live from south sea on the u. k. southern coast. tell us more about where you are, charlie, and why they would be support for this legislation there. so where i am on the coast behind me is the channel between england and france, and that's the stretch of water across which some 46000 people crossed in small boats. last year, arriving on beach is like this thought and down the coast. there haven't been any landing in the last few weeks, but we can expect some of the weather gets warmer at the moment that he's showing here. now, as you heard from the home secretary, in a very lively speech in parliament, lots of heckling lots of shifting from the, from the opposition. the plan here is to deter any would be migrant. refugees for
5:21 pm
making this crossing. now that calling it an illegal crossing, essentially, there is no such thing as an illegal costing if you're an asylum because you are human rights or allowed to enter the country any way that you can, you call it technically be persecuted for the method in which you enter a country, so recording them irregular crossing, so they're trying to deter people from making these regular crossing and saying that if you arrive in britain on a small boat, you will give up your right to ever applying the british citizenship in this country. no matter how great you need is now, you can imagine the opposition to this legislation and who are coming in and coming in the lawyers. he's saying that this is going to be in contravention of the you and charles on rescue on the u. n. g convention to it, you say his sign at the office who's coming in from charity who is saying this is just going to criminalize people who are already in
5:22 pm
a very desperate situation who have just made a very arduous journey, is also coming in from the off of this neighbor policy who's saying that this legislation is post, you know, workable and is really just political clustering. and what should be done is criminalizing the people smugglers instead, given that opposition chinese is likely to become law. honestly as it looks right now, it doesn't look like the although the government has said that this is one of the top 5 priorities and they want to try and push this legislation through that become law by somebody. but as i said, the legal challenges are going to be in the mountable, the home that country herself is admitted, that this is going to push the boundaries of international law. the country's attorney general has advised the prime minister that this is going to be in breach . so even if those legal challenges overcome the practical challenge is also going to be enormous at the moment this countries asylum system is already
5:23 pm
a breaking point. the backlog is 160000 people, the tension census flowing and the extra people have been put into hotels. so heresies all seeing where all of these extra people are going to go beyond that. the. the, the hurdles, the practical challenges do not actually is currently a few hours down the coast. and he's going to be holding a press conference back in london in a few hours. will be a lot of the charlie. thank you for that. johnny angela with the nations joining us live from south sea on the u. k. southern coast. thank you. u. s. president joe biden wants talk earnest to pay more to help fund the federal government's health insurance program. the extra revenues to help keep the insurance plan solvent on to at least to 2050 bite innocent to make this proposal a part of his budget presentation on thursday. let's bring in a white house correspondent, committee health now. so money. an obvious one,
5:24 pm
but tell us to pass through the motivations for this company. yeah, this is something that the u. s. president has been talking about for a very long time in terms of his goals as a u. s. president. in fact, since he was campaigning to win the white house and it was really to rebuild the middle class in the united. busy states because he felt that the wealth gap between the highest income earners the lowest in the united states was just too wide. and so this is another attempt to try and close that i in this proposal. and so what he's doing here essentially is trying to save a government program that millions, tens of millions, in fact 60000000 seniors in the united states rely on in terms of their government health care. as the age is that this will stay solvent. in other words, that if this doesn't change in some way, in 5 years, it's really going to be in trouble and written may not even exist moving forward.
5:25 pm
so what the president is proposing is to close this wealth gap by and taxing the highest incomers in the united states. those are earning over 400000 in the united states, contributing a little bit more in terms of their taxes going from 3.5 percent to 5 percent. and this would increase the amount of money into this program, allowing it to run for substantially longer. and so this would keep it running the other proposal, and all of this is really to lower the cost of prescription drugs in the united states. so that this is another way that this program could continue to run. this is one of the promises the president made the campaign trail. and this is just another manifestation of him trying to keep that promise. how much support does it have committee? well, you can imagine has an enormous amount of support in an aging population in the united states, states like florida, arizona,
5:26 pm
where they're sort of hovered along the u. s. border with mexico, warmer states were retirees like to go and sort of a, you know, spend their final years. this is where it's enormously popular is likely to be an election year issue. come 2020 for the presidential election that program and also another very popular government program for seniors that social security sort of guaranteed income. so that seniors can make sure that they're not destitute and their final year. so these are popular programs. but at the same time, this is a government proposal being put forward by the biden administration. congress makes the laws. and so this could run into some pushback, particularly among republicans who see this as income redistribution. so in terms of this being approved, it is final form, it's unlikely it's likely bit more that there will be some forms of this, but not exactly this when this finally becomes law. so white house correspondent,
5:27 pm
kimberly how can thank you. chinese president, she's been paying, has accused western nations led by the us of suppressing and, and circling, bating, she urged private companies to increase innovation and be more self reliant. the u . s. has imposed several restrictions on china semiconductor industry. the un is appealing for international aid to help refugees and bond based on sunday and launch fine at camp and cox's bizarre, destroyed more than 2100 schools and hospitals. $12000.00 refugees and now displaced once again. and the chelsea has more from balcony and cox as bazaar nearly 6 years on a refugee crisis, showing no sign of winding down more than 1000000 ravages living in a very densely packed area. what is now the world's largest refugee camp? that faces all kind of challenges on daily basis, frequent fires, inter gang rivalry, political gang rivalry is, and violence is
5:28 pm

5:30 pm
like this one here that leads to punch or town. the only way in through this route is by boat. now while we were here, some residents came by hoping to be able to go home to retrieve some of their more important belongings, like documents, but they weren't able to. now one man we spoke to also said he doesn't expect to have a source of income for the next 6 months because he doesn't thing. the old palm trees in his plantation will survive the floods are loyal. i look on you just have to accept it because this is god's will and not man's. this is nature. we are sad, but what can we do? we just have to accept the situation and the painting the feed because we lost a lot of things. that's why so like no, no human lives, lot floodwaters he will likely take several more days to receive authorities recently released water from a nearby damn. now some places into hall received an unusually heavy rain in the last week. in some places it was the most rain recorded in more than 30 years.
