this is the only news line from girl in south africa's ruling a.n.c. party elects a new leader to succeed jacob zuma sarawak rum oppose the wins a close contest for the party leadership putting him in private session to

potentially rule the nation one day so what are his plans for south africa also coming up. a train to wills on a bridge in washington state several people are dead and many more are injured we'll bring you the very latest from the u.s. . also turkey orders to release of german journalist michelle tulu from prison but says she won't be allowed to leave the country. plus remembering the dead as germany prepares to mark the first anniversary of the berlin christmas market truck attack the families of the victims say they have been mistreated by the german authorities. and to europe shame thousands of refugees are being forced to live in a calling conditions on the greek island of less boss because of the news used a hidden camera to document the plight of the migrants.

it's a pleasure to have you with us south africa's ruling african national congress has a new leader the p.t. president ceral at ramah poster has edged out president jacob zuma as ex-wife in a closely fought race thousands of delegates took part in the vote and much of south africa was watching as the a.n.c. announced its new leader the sea has ruled south africa since the end of apartheid the parties the last three leaders have all gone on to rule south africa are now this is the moment when several ram opposed one the agency's top job take a lesson from bridge and go further than that i mean is received. two to six one. and chrome grades from a course received boreholes zero.

three. do you. think. our jubilant supporters there in your text or what this all means is that of years christine wonder kristin good to see you is that run oppose the man to turn around the a.n.c. regenerate the country well if you ask a lot of a c. a senior members if you are sick of the party's alliance partners if you ask a lot of south africans particularly young black middle class of african the clever blacks as they're known locally they would say yes and we saw it even with the reception that the currency gave this announcement it is aged up so widely the the business community the international community as well had favorite sorum opposed

to coming in to to power of course because he's most likely going to take over the reins of the president jacob zuma at a national level in the country and people are seeing that as a positive move to steer the country in another direction as zuma has led the country down a path that not many people were happy with it's not if the country much better and people hope that sort of will not only deal with the divisions within the ruling party but address the pressing issues surrounding south africa's economy and i'd like to talk more about that part just in between there's the practicalities does he take over right now the sooner step down and ramaphosa step and it's up to jacob zuma and if you look if you listen to a lot of analysts there is doubt about that people feel that a president jacob zuma would want to stick around as long as possible what he wants to do is to guarantee himself a life free of prosecution after he steps down in two thousand and nineteen percent doesn't. necessarily grant him immunity so he might stick around longer than than that so let's talk about what you just mentioned earlier of course the a.n.c.

has been dogged the last couple of years with corruption allegations scandals a slowing economy as well can the a.n.c. reform from within or is it time for another party to take the raise a south africa you know people have been having this discussion about these liberation parties pretty much on the continent but more specifically in the case of africa the reality is is that there isn't a credible black opposition party of that can counter the a.n.c. a lot of young black people cannot bring themselves to voting for the main opposition which is largely viewed as a white party and this is how the a.n.c. has survived but we can also see that the party is being pushed to the rule areas they've lost significant support in urban areas so this is the time for opposed to hold that pasta to give it was widely feared that if he had lost impulse as an add on the news of what they would have been a breakaway his supporters made it clear they were not going to serve and examine is a that means we are still where we are in terms of opposition it's the a.n.c.

or nothing for a lot of black and south africans and unfortunately they determine the voyage south africa remains a one party state in many ways thank you so very much for saying winner for your reporting really appreciate it all right and i want to tell our viewers now about other breaking news this time from the united states an amtrak passenger train has derailed on a bridge over a major highway in washington state the accident occurred near the city of tacoma around sixty kilometers south of seattle tipping a railway cars onto the road below as you can see here a massive emergency response is underway at this very moment and this is where the spokesman for the local sheriff's office said shortly after the accident. about seven forty this morning the train derailed multiple agencies are responding when we got to the scene it was obvious that there were some fatalities and there were a lot of injuries and some people were able to get up between little cars and trucks were struck by train cars that left the train tracks and went down onto the

road. the sheriff addressing the press there well did he use carson phenomena is monitoring this breaking a van to car said no what more are you hearing about this accident. we hear that there have been multiple fatalities so we're not quite sure what that means if it's several or if it's dozens but what we've heard is that at least eighty people have been injured and admitted to hospitals apparently those fatalities all happened among people who were on the train there were a seventy eight passengers and five stuff on the train and the fatalities only among those people about some injuries among people driving on the interstate five this very important commuter roads which was running adjacent to the track which was a new track this was the first time this train was running on these new tracks but

we don't know whether there was any connection to this accident and carson i know this is very early days it's still a very fluid situation what is amtrak safety record like. well and track had a number of accidents in the last ten years or so apparently the safety record has improved a little bit in recent times but still in two thousand and fifteen there was a study that said if you look at the risk of getting injured compared to the kilometers that you ride you have a much higher risk of red and injured in the u.s. than let's say in germany or france actually if you go in france you five thousand times less likely to get injured and in germany four thousand times less likely to get injured than in the united states so not a very good record all right carson phenomena reporting thank you and we will bring

you more on this breaking a developing story as additional details become available but for now we want to move on we say in the united states actually because the u.s. has vetoed a u.n. security council resolution against president chavez decision to recognize jerusalem as israel's capital security council was voting on a resolution that the united states rescind the president's declaration while the move aimed to show the depth of global opposition to president trump's action palestinian foreign minister and the other man ikey says they will seek support at the general assembly on tuesday. turkey has ordered the release of german journalist messala tulu after nearly eight months in prayer in prison but german officials say she has only been let go on the condition that she does not leave the country to lou was charged with being a member of a terrorist organization and publishing terrorist propaganda following a failed military coup back in july twenty sixth in. a day of celebration for

mashallah tolu supporters and legal team after more than seven months in custody in turkey the judge has decided to release the thirty three year old german on bail. now i am happy again but this has been a bad year for me i certainly won't forget twenty seventeen it will help me michelle atoll who was arrested in her apartment in istanbul in april she's since been held in a women's prison along with seventeen other defendants she was accused of being a member of the extreme left turkish communist party which the authorities classify as a terrorist organization mashallah tolu denied all the charges when the trial began in october. she should have been freed earlier even the public prosecutor asked for her release he knew the allegations against her were not sustainable. we're happy that inshallah tolu has at least been allowed out and we will continue the legal

fight to have her acquitted he rejoined that is the damages the judge's decision is only a temporary release until a verdict is passed the trial is due to continue in april next year in the meantime mashallah tolu is not allowed to leave turkey all right while chilean han is standing by for us in istanbul julia where is michelle to. well that's really the question of the evening it has been quite an intense evening with a fair share of confusion i have to admit we have been waiting for more than three hours in front of the women's prison that she was staying in in the past months together with her supporters together with her family her father only to be told that she's not in there anymore that she's been brought to a police station the police station right behind me and now we learned she's not here either so really the big question is where is tolo and will we see the

pictures of her leaving the police station leaving prison and having her father her family again that's really the big question of this even ng but the good messages she will be set free today right so that's already been determined by the court what does her release mean for the other german prisoners. while many here many observers say that's a hopeful sign that there might be developments in the other cases as well there are at least eight or nine german citizens behind bars in turkey allegedly for political reasons one of them being of course german turkish journalist. so now of course there is hope that some movement will come into these cases as well and they will be set free eventually as well. as you know these arrests of german nationals have plunged german turkish by a lot of relations could we and i know it's early days but could we interpret this

release this conditional release as a sign that the tide might be turning. well that's what many years say it's maybe a positive sign but you have to know that the relationship between turkey and germany is really strained so it's not enough to release maybe one german citizen and then think everything will be fine again and i don't think that german officials think that way they for example have said today again repeatedly that they will continue to fight for the release of the other german nationals behind bars here and i think until the last of them is free and gets a fair trial relays the relationship will not get any better soon but horace it's it's there is hope there is hope julia reporting from istanbul thank you it's nearly one year since a terrorist drove a truck into a berlin christmas market killing twelve people today on the american met families

of the victims but only after they sent her an open letter published on the german news website spiegel online they were to almost a year after the attack we know that you have not shared your condolences with us either in person or in writing in our opinion this means you are not doing justice to our office it's to your office excuse me it's a matter of respect and decency and it should be self-evident that you as head of government and knowledge to our families the loss of a relative because of a terrorist attack all of these overuse kaufman one victim's family. you know a bunch takes candles to the grateful for sun to question the first victim of the attack on the christmas market the walk to the cemetery in the polish town of banja has become a regular reachable for her and her husband. dr campbell we come almost every other day we have to tidy up here because so many people come from all

over poland even all of europe we have to take good care of the grave. visitors from both germany and poland come to lay flowers the cemetery's only a fifteen minute drive from the polish german border. they expected more support and compassion from germany they have yet to receive a letter of condolence from chancellor and young enough bones speak on camera too many tears she says the attack in berlin set at the usually tranquil region of western poland many locals are further dismayed by the way the german government reacted afterwards it was only in march this year three months after the attack that a commission of the relatives of the victims was appointed. i think none of us was really prepared to say that what happened in france could happen here oblivion

as a result we made an error in judgment. it wasn't enough for the president of germany to speak with the victim's relatives region it should have been the chancellor that's regarded as a major shortcoming on the part of the government. because mongo informed involvement. angry at german authorities at the time of the attack he had at the trucking firm was a vehicle was high checked by the attacker and he's. besides the biggest loss my cousin i had to shoulder enormous expenses because of the attack i didn't even say that early on. the haunting of gremlins in this bag a fragment of the truck wreckage is evolved that the police return to ski his company was badly affected by the attack and the resulting investigation.

there was the loss of my very expensive truck for one thing. i had to replace the tractor trailer i did least. then there were three weeks of inactivity and all the lost income relating to that . and of course multiple trips to berlin. just a few received ten thousand euros compensation from the german foreign ministry the same a c. of the victims' relatives the special commission a montagne he's done everything possible to help. recover but a year after the attack the pain of loss is still very present for the family of obama. and therefore more for an even more in-depth look at this story there's a documentary coming up later today on d w it's called the attack how terrorism it

came to check out the dot com for the broadcast time where in the area where you are all right well a ikea has made a lot of money from us building their furniture finally and you've got a story about that exactly now thank you very much indeed the european union has launched an investigation into i.q.'s tax arrangements and then that alliance they could have given the swedish furniture giant an unfair market advantage it may have to foot a bill that's a little bit pricey of course than its cheap bookshelf so there's more. ikea's known across the globe for its practical and inexpensive home furnishings the company also strives to have a low tax bill but the european commission believes ikea took advantage of questionable tax loopholes in the netherlands. we have concerns that to touch tax rulings from two thousand and six and two thousand and eleven may have allowed enter ikea to pay less tax and given them an unfair advantage compared to other

companies subject to the same national taxation rules in the netherlands which would if confirmed to be and reaches your state rules. the alleged tax avoidance model apparently allow the furniture giant to pay little or even no taxes during some years but ikea insists that its tax deals in the netherlands did not breach e.u. laws the debate over you tax havens isn't new the netherlands ireland and luxembourg are among the countries attracting multinationals with favorable tax models besides ikea apple and starbucks are among the big names taking advantage of such tax schemes the european commission has now launched an in-depth investigation into ikea's tax deals and then the other plans if the allegations of irregularities are confirmed could be hit with a large bill for back taxes and as we've just heard in your report ikea is not the only company facing an investigation our correspondent in brussels has more. the

commission ordered apple for instance to pay thirteen billion euros to ireland it ordered amazon to pay two hundred fifty million to luxembourg and i'd say we're more in the territory of amazon here and the reason is this of three percent of turnover from all over the world of ikea shops has been channeled to a holding in the netherlands now a substantial part of that money between two thousand and six and two thousand and eleven was then transferred to luxembourg and really looking at hundreds of millions here and that money has been the zero tax paid on that money and then we're looking at another case an even more creative where tax was avoided involving lichtenstein both cases currently being investigated mowbray says news later in the show now back to late thanks a lot allegations of collusion between elephant poachers an anti poaching rangers

have emerged in tanzania news got a hold of information that reveals the presence of rangers has increased the number of elephants killed in certain areas data shows that in twenty fourteen almost twelve thousand elephants were killed in tanzania the largest national park a whistleblower has told us that rangers pass ammunition to the poachers and then want them patrols. on the w. so lucy taylor sent us this report from tanzania and a word of warning it contains images that some viewers may find disturbing. the brutal signature of the illegal ivory trade maybe hidden from safari tourists these pictures could have been taken tens of thousands of times over tanzania is ruairi a lost twelve thousand elephants in twenty. it was the world's worst massacre of elephants we now have new evidence that some of the very government rangers who were paid to prevent it were passively killing. new scientific analysis of aerial

surveys shows clusters of carcasses close to three range of posts unpublished paper shows elephants dying within five hundred metres of them casting suspicion on some of the ranges themselves see the hot spots around two or three of the ranger posts and it's hard to explain there is. except in relation to the ranger packs that somehow the rangers are probably complicit in poaching we estimate that around about five percent of rangers may have some connection with poachers that are able to inform them about the activities of the patrols. we've spent the last year speaking to those who were there at the height of the crisis one ranger fearing for his safety told me he knew some of his colleagues were helping poaches they give them bronze for example the portal has a gun but he has no ammunition so he gets it from the ranger he says he saw phone

messages between rangers and coaches knew of rangers warning poaches of patrols it's a lot many of them do it is at its worst thirty elephants a day being slow says here was the ivory trade at his most deadly one of africa's biggest elephant populations cut down to a third of its size evidence suggests that those who were supposed to be protecting them may have been involved in the killing and all the while this area was receiving millions. dollars of international. documents show that the united nations development project helped to train and equip the ranges funded partly by foreign aid the project was held in such high regard that the organizations global administrators came to visit but approaches while working with impunity in twenty fourteen even tourism companies raised the alarm. after hearing gunshots and

finding bullet cases scattered on the ground we were devastated upset. because this had been happening on our doorstep. through our home hurdle was being renowned for its. population. what happened in the well is part of a global scramble for tusks fuelled by the ivory markets in asia and threatening elephants very soon. across africa and many millions of dollars of aid to spend fighting it it's not about whether the money has been spent. you. saw night vision. but it's what impact does that expenditure. show impact millions of pounds if you spend then you shouldn't be getting the money in the first place. they say that elephants never gets to be killing continues elephants themselves may become nothing more than

a memory. some a very disturbing revelations in that report from melissa taylor she joins us now from a london lucy if i'd like you to expand a little on your findings because these are very serious accusations and i understand you contacted the u.n. development program which funch this funds this anti-poaching initiative how did they respond. yes well we do now have statements from both the united development program and the times an angel thora city's times new authorities do you can see that collusion between rangers and coaches is a possibility but they say there could be other factors involved too and they say that the high number of elephant caucuses close to some range of posts is a matter for a further investigation but they say that this shouldn't be seen as an institutionalized system of poaching meanwhile the united nations development program have told us that they have the highest standards of accountability and transparency they have rigorous systems and procedures in place to prevent their funds being used for

illegal purposes and they have zero tolerance for wrongdoing but as you say these are very serious allegations because this was an area which once had one of africa's highest elephant populations and we know that least five point three million u.s. dollars of foreign aid was spent trying to protect it so there had to stand shooting themselves from all of this what can be done to prevent this from happening well i've been based in tanzania and following the ivory trade for several years now and there are some there are some programs which are fairly successful one notable example from the tanzania and governments is that the police task force which uses intelligence based policing to track from the people killing elephants in the national parks all the way up to those funding and organizing the international trafficking i've also been to kenya last year which set fire to the

ivory that it had seized over a quarter of a century to send a message that it was not willing to sell it very and risk continuing the ivory trade and there are many conservationists you say that the only way to really stop the killing is to stop the demand around the world let's talk about who's driving the demand who is buying the ivory. well we know that the biggest market for ivory is in asia particularly in china and this is a key because china has committed to closing its domestic library markets by the end of twenty seventeen so this month is when we should see real change is that these illegal ivory markets have often been used as a full of the international trade of ivory which is already illegal and we've seen also around the world of the countries saying that they will also close the remaining legalizing markets the u.s. and even the u.k.

talking about closing the remaining live markets and that could be a big thing because as i say conservationists say any real way to stop the killing right is to stop people buying already buying ivory that is the solution indeed lucy taylor reporting thank you thank you and you're still watching the a lot more to tell you about here's what's ahead the pictures that greece doesn't want you to see the appalling conditions in which thousands of refugees are forced to live on the greek island of last boss. and the weakest one is the guy lights that's all coming up right after this. december nineteenth two thousand and sixteen twelve people were killed in a terrorist attack on christmas market for let. me stop the islamist perpetrator.

new president paving the way for the nation's deputy president to become the country's likely next head of state the sixty five year old is one of south africa's richest citizens. a turkish court has ordered the release of a turkish german journalist imprisoned in istanbul. but she has to remain in the country michel to is charged with terror fences. last series deal between the european union and turkey to drastically cut the number of refugees coming to mainland europe but it left more than fifteen thousand migrants stranded on five greek islands that are allowed to move until their asylum applications have been processed all more than six thousand of these people are stuck on the island of last boss in a camp called moria they are living an appalling conditions and up till recently the local greek population was sympathetic but did abuse all oversoul it reports

the mood is changing. can barely move his fingers it's the morning after another cold night on the greek island of lesbos. and his friends ran out of firewood long ago. and they'll use what's left of this cardboard box to heat today's first cup of tea . that's. from iraq he's been here on the island of lesbos for two months know in a makeshift camp just outside the morea refugee camp. we are many. three but we don't have. a different just. next door is the official

camp it looks like a high security prison made for refugees that have come to the greek islands in the hopes of continuing on to north and europe they have to wait here until their asylum applications have been processed authorities strictly for bit filming here. who ever you look you'll see garbage and thesis and people living right in the midst of it the refugee camp is full far beyond its capacity and with more people arriving than leaving conditions here are getting worse every day. wants to show us what's happening inside the camp so we follow him with a hidden camera. the air is filled with the stench of smoke garbage and feces the united nations high commissioner for refugees or u.n.h.c.r. recently said that moria was dangerous for women and children but they are the ones

who must stay here. it seems like a miracle that epidemics haven't spread within the camp yet. don't give. me just. security what. you see. many refugees have taken matters into their own hands to stay warm knowledge that it's getting colder they simply lied old trees. these trees belong to local residents feel this and still use visits his fields he has to struggle to maintain his composure. well off to come in then about all these trees are burnt anybody there's nothing left of these trees won't grow again they're finished there one hundred twenty trees and

now there's only four of all of the others and nobody cares the authorities won't stop this they got in a fight or compensate us every night these people cut down the trees and burned them. there with. the village of moria is in a state of emergency. in other villagers me to regularly to discuss ways to deal with the situation with. the local mayor nikos truck haley's has just returned from talks with the greek government in athens the news isn't good. if the situation goes on like this it won't take long before we have physical confrontation up to now we are tolerating the looting of people's assets and it's fortunate that things haven't become violent yet. but it's a matter of time before that happens. left his country to escape violence he doesn't want to be lumped together with

lawbreakers he wants to leave lesbians but for now a ferry ticket to athens remains just a distant dream. for never before have so many people been on the move around the world and a majority are now even headed to europe and west africa domestic migration is very prevalent exactly why they want the chance in fact a second chance that's what thousands and thousands of people are looking for in the nigeria city of lagos many of them come from rural areas in the hope of finding work and a better life a mega city already has over eighteen million people and attracts thousands of new migrants every day the swelling population is putting the city under intense pressure. lagos the place you go to follow your dreams or at least in search of a better life thousands of trying to move here every day. one of them is nora

she came here at eight months ago to sell children's clothes little sister. is not in a constant. just bring it on. people. but the influx of people has left the city bursting at the seams. congestion is a huge problem for many people commuting takes up a large portion of their day. i.t. specialist kamikazee has to get off track of doing to get to work on time. is about twenty kilometers. it sometimes takes about. lagos is now home to an estimated twenty one million people the city's rapidly rising population is proving a headache for urban planners. to deal with. water

sanitation your plan for certain population and the plan before you even start implementation that number has increased if the numbers continue at the rate people have mentioned of people community leaders on a daily basis twenty five years from now with the crisis the city's infrastructure is ready proving inadequate and with relatively few opportunities elsewhere in one thousand the population of lagos will only continue to soar. the right time to bring in our correspondent young philip scholtz in lagos young slip you live in lagos so how do you experience the effects of migration on a daily basis. well i'm in the lucky situation that a lift in one of the better neighborhoods ghosts so i can only experience the effects and let's say in a very soft way if i was

a resident of one of the many growing slum syrian lego's i could probably tell you a different story but of course there are facts that everybody experiences in lagos no measure of poor or middle class or or super rich and this is of course above all the crazy traffic here it's probably the best indication that the infrastructure of this city is really not made for the amount of people that come to live here yesterday for example and this is really not an exaggeration i had to give up my own travel plans already at the parking lot of my apartment building because i couldn't even get out of the gates because there was so much traffic that i just had to wait for a few hours to try again and then i was a little bit more lucky. you just describing basically effects of this influx of people but didn't really have an alternative for a better life today we have a second chance that they want maybe

a few of them have but i would say probably ninety five percent unfortunately don't have it because there is simply not enough jobs in lagos and the few jobs that exists are usually given to people that have the right connections and so on and of course those migrants coming from villages or or from small towns they're usually not the people with the right connections so it's very difficult. to find a job here and you can see it every day especially now in the christmas period the amount of the number of street beggars here is increasing every day and of course this is also part of the truth a lot of young women that come to lagos they end up in prostitution what is the government trying to do to cope with a situation. well after a long time of neglect i think the state government in the past years that has at least tried to improve the situation there lots of projects now to improve the

infrastructure in the city and on the federal level the president well re tries to encourage people not to go to the big cities like lego's but try to find opportunities in farming and actually with the current population growth and with a very fertile n.c.r. nigeria a lot of experts say that it is actually in our churn it's to go into modern agriculture but of course a lot of young people still find it more attractive to to move to the big cities clipsal to make us for us thank you so much for your analysis. and know we're headed back to more world news for late q football now and live of course is poor start to the bundesliga season is a distant memory they travel to hanover on the back of an eleven game unbeaten streak that has put them among the leading pack in stark contrast to their hosts had over had only managed one win in their last six one to see the games but this

one turned out to be a classic. never spans were hoping for a christmas present but gold getter much in heinecke was out with a stomach bug laverick was in for their part missing their top scorer kevin fall and the visitors still came out swinging ben did to you liam brown's one nil but their celebrations had hardly calmed down when hanover answered uli incog teeing up a husband for the equaliser. then félix klaus got brought down in the box and after consulting the video replay the referee awarded a questionable penalty because food for a convert in the kick to give hanover a two one lead. but only briefly in the twenty fifth minute i've near met maybe made it to all in this action packed affair and just before the half time interval it was klaus who hit the target to put hanover in front once again three to five

the first time this season the house of scored three and a half. at the restart later because in brought on leon bailey and it took the jamaican just two minutes to pull the side's level again. i'm what a display of speed from one of the foreign players in the bundesliga and he was at it again twenty minutes later bagging a brace to make it four three. but four away goals wouldn't be enough for a laver couzin when. in the dying minutes car brown did out the four all scoreline in this pre christmas extravaganza. all right well joining me now to discuss live of course is incredible runner for a look back on the first half of the one to take a season as with me the very own max merrill i thank you so much for being here max unbeaten for twelve flee games is that something that you expected to happen no not really i mean the number twelve rings true because last season they finished twelve

it was a very disappointing season they went through two coaches and now they're on the third high. go ahead and i mean even he surprised me a lot because his biggest achievement today in his coaching career was getting promotion to the second division with think it's both a very small club so they've really defied the odds as you mentioned twelve games unbeaten that didn't start so well they only won twice in the first eight games so they've really picked up and like or how that has formed a real unit out of leave a coups and they don't just rely on one player they've got the goals all around the team coming fall on those stands out with nine he's the most prolific german player in the division and leon bailey has mentioned in the report i mean six goals for assists a very young player who's only just joined laver cruising from under left in january looks like big clubs already sniffing around room is that english clubs are interested if leave a couzin can maintain their form and maybe shore up that leaky defense that we saw that they can get into the champions league and maybe just

maybe they can keep a hold of leo really he seems like he's he set for a very bright future and stick around because i want to talk about leipsic with you in just a few moments because leipsic were in need of a three points if they were to avoid slipping further away from the leaders by in munich a run of three games without a win had seen them would give up a second spot in the table to shock a heritage on the other hand that were feeling confident after their midweek win against hanauer. davey celcom left light sake after making just two starts last season today he was in the first eleven for the six game running. and it took him just six minutes to punish his former employer the young german has now schooled in half of his appearances for him. but just one minute later his side suffered a setback jordan torn a rega brought down team of vanna red cod liver movement from the light six tried to buy the foul. but had to persevered as

a free kick found solomon flew to nail despite being down to ten men. in the second half celko struck again this time from a colon out by one man down three goals up. taunting the red bulls with a kiss of the badge. when like sixty or threw captain for the obama it looked like nothing more than a consolation three won. but in the ninety second minute a bull over the top put like six within a goal of a draw five three to the final school a painful finish for light six muscle health and bag. but a night to remember the davies celica. by max a painful evening there where does this all leave life say at well they've been very inconsistent the season it's a shame really because they have such

a great debut campaign i mean the expectations really high i think they'll be a little bit disappointed that they sold david judging by that game i mean he scored two we could have scored three really a man of the match performance and i think they've just struggled with having the european competition is not something they used to and the title race now in the bundesliga looks over because of that by an eleven points ahead but behind that shellac at with thirty points and then four teams all tie. on twenty eight point so when the game starts up against again in january we're going to see a really really close race for the top four so it will be a great season to finish all right mike's merril thank you so very much for filling us and we look forward to watching those games thanks a lot all right to cricket now because truly every game the ashes after thrashing england in the third test in perth the victory means the hosts taken a salable three nil lead in the series and reclaim the bragging rights for one of

cricket's fiercest rivalries it's also australia's seventh when in eight ashes series at home for us we've we've just got it really well against them and we haven't given them a sniff except probably a session in adelaide where they're on top of us but besides that it's just been about. us just betting for long periods of time and making sure we're scoring big first innings runs and with been able to do that which is probably been the difference spitz really disappointing i think one of the most frustrating things is that we haven't been blown away we've not been completely outplayed we've we've put up some really good performances just not long enough and simple as that really now you may not expect a basketball player to let his fee do the talking about that's exactly what cleveland cavalier superstar le bron james did on sunday the four time m.v.p. has been a longstanding critic of u.s. president donald trump and or message on issues aimed at what he called the man at

the helm at his most recent game in washington d.c. his eye catching shoes one black one white or blaze it with the word equality although james didn't mention trump by name when asked about his footwear is target was clear the game was played just a mile from the white house on the player has repeatedly criticized president trump calling him unpresidential and divisive. that is the unmistakable sound of swedish group the bestselling band from continental europe and even though they broke up in the eighty's eighty two they're still selling records by the truckload to this very day and you exhibit has just opened in london and karen helps that from our culture this is here to tell us more

. i bet it was really tough to pick one favorite song. well it was actually pretty easy in this case because super trouper because this exhibition is called super troopers with an ass so this is a cooperation between south bank southbank center in london and the museum there's a whole museum obviously cores are all. yeah. i guess this is an exhibit with a difference karen cause i mean everything is arias said about what more can we try and resolve you know what you could call abba immersion actually if you wanted to kind of shorten it had sort of takes you back to the one nine hundred seventy s. and through many different periods of the band's history and obviously a lot of artifacts to see but the time travel aspect is really intensified by the fact that the exhibition really tries to eliminate one nine hundred seventy s. britain you know so very much of a social and political context to the whole thing and this incredible shiny

optimistic music you know came surging in from from scandinavia into this picture so let's have a look at what that picture looks like in the in the exhibition. typically drab nine hundred seventy s. british living room it was a time of endless strikes and high unemployment part of the backdrop that saw abah catapult to find a slice of glitter in the gloom. i. think it's getting close to what it was like this is not one of those huge technically advanced exhibitions this is. a war of super troopers is an immersive guided exhibition in small groups of visitors pass through nine rumors that explore important moments of the band's history including polish studios in

stockholm with a big vision superstars made many of their indisputable hits and the brighton grand hotel rooms were of a state during the famed nine hundred seventy four year old vision song contest the winner would see ever go on to become one of the most successful bands of all time fittingly the nearest subway station for the exhibition is mortally in london. it was always london and the u.k. too to have a number one in this country was all of us our biggest dream super troopers not only celebrates the life and music about but also the political and social context of their eyes i. i. i.

i. i. i. they we need a couple microphones if you are. looking at where we were going and thankfully he was saved for that is what i mean this in during appeal of what are people so fascinated with this band i mean they broke up thirty five years ago so it's unbelievable. that's a very interesting question because you know they certainly weren't appreciated by the music critics all across the board i mean they were they were often panned and panned again and again a sort of really cute she was kind of cheery am radio kind of fare and it's very funny with the kitchen is because i was just telling you about the costumes you know that their costumes were actually that was all part of a plan but that it fit into the plan that they were so garish because they could write them off taxes that was tax relief you know you didn't they were if they were if they were gaudy enough to not be worn on the street or you know not street clothes so so it kind of fit in but you know i think it was that very cheery news

that actually struck a note with their fans i mean benny and dionne can see them in the back here the. they are masters of the era warm and they really really got it down to sort of produce these optimistic sort of glitzy sort of anthems and even their sadder songs actually had a kind of a brilliance to them a shine they had you know there was music lee everything was a lot more complex than what people give them credit for so that's interesting the women also had classical music training i mean so these are interesting things the exhibition very interestingly offers visitors a chance to go into the room in the studio and give their own rendition of dancing queen and anyone who has tried to sing that at the karaoke knows that that is not so easy and meryl streep obviously figured that out on her own when she starred in the two thousand and eight version movie version of the hit musical. that built an entire story around all of it singles and was a total wrong. time and. i'm going. to

show you. just. so you know again the critics gave this to the families down the public just ate it up as you know and interestingly enough there is a sequel coming out next june or july i think of the mama mia here we go again so there's still a lot of mileage to be got out of his music because they didn't use everything you know you know we were actually talking about our favor. songs up stairs in our department today i want to know what yours is. take a chance on me i love that song and that's funny because actually i had i have a couple i haven't always hard to nail it down that is one of them and we can maybe even actually have a little one take a chance on. these videos are so amazing. thing

. to love the soft filter. but you're right it's that whole this about it and this is the usually the minor tones but it's but it's almost always sort of tuned up you know and the fans are definitely are definitely going to enjoy this one this is on until the end of a full by the way i think center in london but it's best to tickets online before all right we will do that thank you so much karen really appreciate it and all right that does their first song on the hierarchy and for again we hope to see you again at the top of the hour.
