turkish community in the lead up to the elections german authorities banned campaigning by turkish politicians on german soil election results show everyone has taken two thirds of votes among germany's turkish community but across berlin a clear political divide was on full display. they count themselves among added ones most loyal supporters dozens streamed onto the streets as the results rolled in gathering in the heart of berlin as their hopes were being realized over two thousand kilometers away. really excited very happy i can't put it into words i like the president and i support the germany should recognize that he's not a dictator we have a great president and everybody should see and hear that. just a few streets away a very different picture. tempers run high as ed one opponents came
2:10 pm
face to face with those who helped secure his return to power. came to a large turkish community poland's critz burg is in many ways a microcosm of turkish society with people of every political stripe living side by side and with one point four million people in germany eligible to vote it was clear they could play a key role in shaping turkey's future for the minority and one opponents the stakes couldn't have been higher with no send into despair as the result became clear. thinking any hope for democracy is being extinguished it will just be a dictatorship a one man rule. more disappointment this time of the gathering for supporters of the pro kurdish h.t.t.p. party. he's a mentions it's not there are these people who stand by at once per. i don't feel they belong in germany we should think about what has gone wrong here for people to still feel so connected to turkey and it took
2:11 pm
a bit. community here in germany is now facing a very different turkey to the one they once knew a facts not lost on anyone supporters as they celebrate a new chapter in turkish politics. in germany the spokesperson for angela merkel said the chancellor will persist in seeking a european wide solution on refugee policy this comes a day after a summit of sixteen e.u. leaders in brussels for their feet to come up with concrete plans america said there was plenty of goodwill on trying to find solutions she also said she would consider dealing directly with separate countries is facing a revolt by have a very conservative allies over the issue which could break up her government let me join the dumbass political correspondent hans brandt at a parliamentary studios hans is the outcome of sunday's mini summit going to be enough to soothe america's bavarian allies. well as far as we know what she has
2:12 pm
achieved so far certainly is not enough we don't know what other agreements are still possible in the next few days behind the scenes the negotiations are very much likely to be going on what the bavarians conservative allies have said is that they would be satisfied with something that is effectively the same to what they have been demanding which is that they want to be able to close german borders to people who have applied for asylum elsewhere in europe at the moment that is not possible so if not go find some sort of agreement maybe with single european countries with neighboring countries such as all strayer for instance or with it to the that's such people that have applied for asylum in those countries can be turned back at the border maybe that might be enough to satisfy the bavarians at the moment they have not given any indication that they are prepared actually to back down on their on their demands to the politicians from the very i'm not prepared to back down but do we know what or do you bavarians feel about the issue
2:13 pm
. yes indeed there have been several polls in the last few days a new one came out only today and the results in fact are not very positive for the bavarian conservatives the polls show that in fact support for angela merkel is much higher than for the support for the bavarian leaders that are pushing this confrontation with narco and even markets policies in fact the idea of trying to find a european solution to this migration question again has much more support than the idea by the very and cons of has to try and block the borders without consulting european neighbors so at the moment it seems that even within bavaria the policy of confrontation with anger narco is not producing the kind of gains that the bavarian christian social union wants to have especially in light of the fact that it is facing regional elections in october and is facing at the moment quite a significant loss of support in his home area at the same time his does not
2:14 pm
speculation that medicos government could sink or would this issue a fire refugee policy is likely. we can't say whether it's likely at the moment but it certainly is possible it is the fact that the bavarians they have the interior minister and mark holds government holds the whole fight is from bavaria and he is the one that has been pushing marco very hard on this issue and has not given no indication so far of backing galled if you call to news to insist on pushing through his there months he had threatened that he interior minister might take this decision on his own and try to confront america in that way if that happens america might be forced to throw him out of cover not enough which certainly leads to the collapse of the government but at the moment that's not clear we have to wait for the european union summit which is taking part taking place this weekend after that there will be continuing the. discussions between the variance malco

2:20 pm
extent is it a case of giving women more autonomy and to what extent is it about giving the economy a boost getting into the car to drive to work around our friends it's a first for most saudi women who are literally forced to take a back seat for the last sixty years through illusionary nature of the move makes even mundane tasks exciting it's more for the quicker carcasses or. what there was of a really well i want to take a picture of myself i want to take a selfie of. analysts predict tree million female drivers and tell you roads by twenty twenty their new found automotive freedom he's also expected to benefits how do your abs economy. mobility is said to improve women's access to the job market crown prince moment been soman hopes that thirty percent of women will be contribution to their household income by twenty thirty. one each of us high
2:21 pm
sometimes to do what they really want to do just because we don't have anyone to drop us off our because. the new policy is also a business opportunity firstly due to the demand for new driving schools catering solely to women. meanwhile car dealerships i can ring up for female customers local media forecast annual growth of six to ten percent for the domestic car market but that could be optimistic last year new car sales in saudi arabia fell by over twenty percent the slump was partly due to the country's recession saudi arabia's g.d.p. thought was zero point five percent and twenty seventeen turning the all dependent kingdom into a successful modern economy will take more than having women at the wheel.
2:22 pm
they were the highest scoring day at the was kept so far to share that excitement i had with me ed mccambridge from good obvious sports stats and to take us through all those goals are welcome and you must be ecstatic with that panama england result well this is one of those rare world cup days where as an englishman i can come and speak to you guys with a big smile plastered across my face yes it was panama yes england were expected to win this can comfortably but it was still an impressive results especially given the low expectation on england going into this tournament one of the youngest squads a relatively inexperienced manager but it gives me great pleasure now as introduce the report let's have a look at what happened. england showed their dominance from the start john stones opened the scoring and just minutes later harry came doubled the lead a sublime shot by jesse link up made it three. before johnstone's got his brace in the forty eight minutes. ahead of the
2:23 pm
break harry k. made it five completing his hat trick only in the second time off. celebrates a late consolation like a winner but it was england's who victorious six one the final score their highest ever world cup win. well for what was coming home on race i think we can see that quite clearly. you know but in all seriousness a great result for england if we still smarting off the belgium game on thursday i will be very pleased and it was kind of i was playing in the world cup for the first time i must also mention that but now defending goes in group h. talk us with that like you say another seven goals in group h. but two very different games open for all four teams were actually the first was very tight you can test the fed japan against senegal but there is a clear winner in poland's clash with colombia let's take a look at how that turned out. columbia is yemeni and deservedly opened the scoring after forty minutes. because of pedro's were the better team and went on to add two
2:24 pm
more goals on the counter in the second half of the men falcao and one point zero securing the impressive three male scoreline. colombia remain third in the group while poland suffer an early exit for the third time in a row. in the clash of group h. leaders sanyo money opened the scoring for senegal thanks to some comical defending by japan. samurai blue equalised with their first shot on goal through takashi in week then the youngest player on the pitch nineteen year old mr wagner restored the lead for senegal only for japan to level again through keisuke honda two of the final score. so now the world cup hits a crucial stacy with four games taking place at the host nation and action what is at stake for russia well simply put top spot of group is up for grabs it's europe
2:25 pm
why against russia win or draw and russia take top spot in group a so it's going to be it's an important game. but i think even a loss against uruguay wouldn't dampen russian spirits at the moment they went into this tournament their own tournament as the lowest ranked faith to tame a lot of people but what even expect them to get out of the group but slowly pessimism has turned into optimism they've blown away the competition it's been absolutely phenomenal now speaking of the competition the other two teams group also in action to the egypt against saudi arabia now it's a bit of a dead rubber neither side can progress to the knockout stages but there is pride at stake and it's world cup after all so should be a good game absolutely in talking off each of the spin of the headlines because most of their kind of heroic a clear is apparently done to retire from the national football what's that about well this is a bit of a strange one i mean it's been a miserable tournament for age. and most seller especially he went into this tournament slightly injured didn't get to play in the first game now egypt have already been eliminated but they have been off the field problems as well the
