the state of your news life from valinor germany's trollish government in crisis or the fight for the country's domestic intelligence chief tom it's not something he's on to five on controversial comments about greece and far right protests in eastern germany senior politicians are calling for him to be sacked also on the program. report says precint germany raped and sexually abused nearly four thousand children over seventeen years on the church fail to punish most of the abusers. one day

a week. short of all of being able to see the world leaders pasta in the present to gather in garments of cairo last respects to former u.n. secretary general kofi annan. and risking their lives to get an education. tour on our way to school suddenly lots of shooting started so we all got down and it was really scary there was nowhere to hide the spirits of children living on the frontline of the conflict in eastern ukraine. plus is this the end of a long running environmental battle police remove activists from the german forest for at least two to be cleared for coal mining the protesters say i won't give up.

i'm phil gayle welcome to the program. germany's chancellor and keep party leaders are very good an initial crisis meeting aimed at resolving a row over the head of the country's domestic intelligence service i'm going to america's coalition partners the social democrats want to go martin to resign following his controversial comments about recent far right protests in the city of candidates talks about his faith to jew to resume early next week could the president of germany's domestic secret service bring down the government that's what the papers are asking social democrats a conservative hun's georg masson must go if not they could quit angela merkel's governing coalition and anyone at the head of a security institution of our country has to be absolutely trustworthy and it's obvious that this trust no longer exists so there must be consequences. for now conservatives are backing masson he's accused of improperly passing on sensitive

information to germany's far right populist party the f.t. and f.t. member told germany via the data was contained in an unreleased government report. when we spoke with mr marson about the reports it wasn't available in printed form yet we talked about various numbers and figures such as right wing extremism left wing extremism and islam and cigarettes. s.p.d. chairwoman under the analysis met for crisis talks with merkel and conservatives on thursday but there was no breakthrough talks will continue next tuesday. let's get more political correspondent christopher springer welcome chris so that meeting is over does hans go mass and still have a job. apparently he does still have a job the meeting as you say is over all three leaders none of the three leaders involved chancellor merkel for the conservatives for the varian

conservatives hosty hope for the interior minister and the leader of the social democrats and three analysis none of them have made any public statements what we're hearing from government sources is that all three leaders have agreed to keep the contents of their meeting secret for now apparently it was a good and serious set of talks and as you mentioned the same three leaders will be meeting next wednesday with the intention of continuing working as a governing coalition that's what we know so far so it's the s.p.d. pushing for this man to go how important is a victory for them in this. well i understand that the party leadership had a telephone conference earlier today and one of the lines they did agree on was not to put the governing coalition at risk over this issue so they're pushing very hard

for. mohsen to be fired or for him to resign but seen from today it doesn't look as though they are going to push the red button in this in the sense that they will. leave the chancellor merkel's governing coalition so the coalition seems safe what about the chancellor how much pressure is she under over this. well i would say of the three leaders who are talking in the chancellery behind me she's. least under pressure as it were. the person who really is in the focus is the interior minister. who for because he is the political boss of hands masson the head of germany's domestic intelligence service he would be the person who would have to fire him so he's under a lot of pressure. sensually if he was convinced to fire him that would be

a huge climb down for him at the moment i don't see him doing that especially because his party the christian social union they are the bavarian conservatives and they face a difficult state election coming up next month christopher spring great let's let's ask you one more briefly one of the f.t. germany's far right opposition party they do seem to be enjoying themselves at the chancellor's expense. that's one way of putting it i mean they're definitely dominating the headlines at the moment everybody is talking about how to address the threat that they pose the far right threat that they pose for them any published is good publicity good talking to you thank you so much now to some of the other stories making news around the world germany is close to agreeing a deal with italy to return migrants german interior minister jose hoffa told parliament that the signatures were needed the agreement allows germany to turn

away migrants at its border with austria if they've already been vegeta just refugees in italy. two men have appeared on russian state television claiming to be the man british prosecutors believe poisoned a former spy sergei script and his daughter on the matter admit that they visited be in the city of seoul spray where the script house was poisoned but say they were just tourists visiting the famous cathedral one of spain's parliament has voted to remove the remains of former dictator general franco from his two year old the country for thirty six years until one thousand nine hundred eighty five and is buried in the valley of the fall in the same monument holds the remains of thirty seven thousand dead from both sides of the civil war that brought general franco to power. the catholic church in germany says it is distressed and ashamed by the findings of a new report into the sexual abuse of children by priests the independent report commissioned by the church of found that clergyman had abused all right the only

four thousand children over seventy years starting at the end of the second world war most of the victims were boys and of age of thirteen one of them has spoken to d.w. about the violence in do it as a young boy. when he was eight years old little kaiser was one of the world renowned catholic choir boys in the southern german city of work he lived in a boarding school where he was sexually abused by priests for several years two years ago he shared the painful memories that still haunt him iranians but of a consumer into the prefects room. down with my pajama bottoms. head into his lap. then he thrashed me and groaned loudly. i only realized later that he pleasured himself by rubbing his genitals on the back of my head. in the study the

catholic church noted three thousand six hundred seventy seven victims of sexual violence over a period of nearly seventy years the victims were mostly male and mostly children one thousand six hundred seventy priests are accused of committing the crimes. observers complain that the church didn't release all its documents to the investigation and that abuse survivors weren't given the chance to be heard the authors of the study also pointed out that the number of victims has probably been greatly underestimated during the study they examined forty thousand files and they found that every third reported case was dealt with by the church itself and forty percent of reported cases were brought to court. the study says perpetrators were often transferred to other parishes without the community's knowledge of what they had done. a received a one time payment of twenty five hundred euros for his suffering he and many

others are demanding that the catholic church confronted sexual abuse crisis with more transparency. let's look at this further with peter. head of the national association for people abused childhood welcome to the. do you think it's fair to say these latest revelations this time from germany physic. believe me phil by i absolutely do i mean i've been working with victims and survivors and i am one myself. for over twenty years so none of these red revelations are actually new what is horrible is is so i actually have to confront the reality the as institutions go the catholic church harbors in reality more criminals than any other institution on the planet i mean if it were if we were talking about a multinational corporation

a business that had so many rapists and perverts dotted around the globe many in the southern hemisphere that we don't tend to look at very often we there would be an absolute out cry out right each but there hasn't been until now and now organizations like my own in the u.k. that has the support of the british government thank god and ending clergy abuse the organization that i'm here in berlin meeting with tomorrow we're having a congress conference in this wonderful city to discuss this issue at long last something is starting to happen but there are no excuses feel that the church hasn't taken this issue seriously in the past and done something about it because they absolutely could you know this is a pope who many are putting their hopes on to promote change and until recently you were working on his child protection a commission you would be disappointed by your experience was well beyond

disappointed when i met the pope in two thousand and fourteen i really thought the things i thought he was taking this mass of seriously i thought something significant fundamental was going to change because you know abuse in the catholic church is is is a pandemic it goes on everywhere i've heard from most of the adults who were abused as. kids of course from all over the world and during the course of my brief period of time on that papal commission absolutely nothing had happened and of course i was ejected because i started to voice that opinion so the church doesn't like to air these issues it doesn't like transparency it protects its own and as i say it's the biggest organization in the world i would say that that has more i hate to use the word paedophile because they're not all paedophiles but child abusers more than the many other organization is

a is an outrage and so stop. we have on the one hand we have the pope's commission that he and you are part of it you will you would looking at this for on the inside dissatisfied with what you you saw and left it so it was a public relations exercise so what is it that why is the church so resistance to the idea of arresting all these criminals within it and just cleaning out the stables as a way to mix my metaphors and make your metaphors or you like you need to get some of the cardinals or the archbishop's sitting here and trying to explain why they do this. i personally you know as a christian i don't understand it these are supposed to be people of god but the way they behave clearly they many of them there are good priests and nuns around let's not forget that but the people at the top of the tree the people who run this institution are basically morally corrupt as far as i'm concerned so do you think

that they think they can just ride this out because barely at day goes by without there being another revelation of thousands more children having abused here there and everywhere do you think they can just wait for this to pass that's what they're relying on what they've got away with for generations but long last you and i are having a conversation about this we've got this congress in berlin at the weekend where discussing this six more states in the united states of america have announced that they are doing an investigation into the catholic church within their own states this is you know we have the independent inquiry in the u.k. that is also looking at the catholic church we have the royal commission in australia that has strongly condemned the catholic church the church of my upbringing things are going to change and i don't and i think at last the pope if nobody else realizes that they can't get away with this criminality any longer phil complicated question that i would ask you to try to answer briefly. national

governments complicit in this why aren't of national governments national legal authorities prosecuted more of these people well it's a good question we could talk about it for hours in too many parts of the will be church has had far too much power and far too much of. a cozy relationship i mean ireland being an example a place close to where we were brought up that is no longer the case but the church was a dominant factor in a dominant force in ireland for generations lost that's no longer the case but in many other parts of the world it still is feel good talking to thank you so much for joining us from the u.k. set national association for people who abuse the child. this is a day with yourself not of starting with good use for the turkish lira fill it surged after a decision by the central bank to raise the interest rate by more than six

percentage points turkey's financial authorities met today in a last ditch effort to halt their us dramatic descent or at least to slow down the currency value has plunged more than forty percent against the u.s. dollar this year analysts had argued for a drastic rate hike to keep prices from further skyrocketing but turkish president type on how to pose such a move claiming higher interest rates would worsen the country's economic problems because regulators have also decided to ban all real estate business in foreign currencies all transactions will now be handled in there are. now as you heard president has been a firm opponent of raising interest rates he wants lower rates to boost the economy he hears what he had to say head of there is this decision. you see. when you look at interest rates and inflation in terms of cause and effect among fly your interest rates are the cause and inflation is the effect. almost.

but if you seen fleecing is the cause and interest rates are at the effect then my friend you don't know this business. because you can set the interest rates sanctities what inflation will still occur just short. or construction being done. now most economists of course subscribe to the view that higher interest rates are used to curb inflation for more let's bring in correspondent dorian jones in istanbul darrien president out on still doesn't seem to like this move how does still come around to finally approve an interest rate hike i think that is the big question people will be all in today and ancora and i think the reality is that the president realize how bad the situation will face think it took economy if the central bank hadn't the thigh simply increased interest rates and they expect haitian law to the turkish lira would be

plummeting again falling possibly another ten or twenty percent given the fact that the current he's already down forty percent the pressure on the turkish economy and the banking fifth and will become acute this is why most people are believing that the president did allow the central bank to hike right now one could argue that this economic crisis has been there all along so what changed now well i think the big question is going forward is what will the central bank be doing for before there is a haitian the need for further increases in interest rates to defend the currency to drive down inflation which you and some analysts are expecting could hit thirty percent will the central bank be allowed to do this by the president is the key question going forward and also does he is expected to take all the steps as well now will this move today and potentially further hyson interest rates will this solve turkey's economic problems. well he not really will be the big question there

is concern that when the pain starts to hit the turkish economy is already reeling from the effects of rising inflation now these interest rates will expect lead excel or a turkey to drive into recession so the president will put pressure on the central bank to reverse its decision equally another fear of our analysts says is that if the positive effects of the interest rate start to be felt maybe the central bank will be forced to reverse these interest rates too soon these are big concerns on the investors also that turkey needs to take very important steps cutting back spending is the nub of the month of the world bank and central bank and seen as key to driving down inflation as well as addressing the turkey's ongoing tensions with the united states so dorian we see the turkish economy in turmoil we see prices soaring how are people coping. while things are really very tough here indeed the dramatic fall in the layer last month that is now

fueling inflation the prices of imported goods are going through the roof even in politics even food prices now starting to rise the word inflation is on the minds of on the lips of minds of everybody in the country and also the fear of impending recession which most people expected to hit turkish economy that means rising unemployment and more poverty i mean concerns going forward i think the reason awareness even despite what the central bank has done turkey is facing some very tough times ahead. correspondent dorian jones reporting from istanbul dorian thank you. ten years on since the global financial crisis hit e.c.b. president mario draghi says there is no room for complacency calling for strong regulation to avert another crisis the bank has trimmed its growth forecast today while announcing it's set to wind back economic stimulus from october on words the monthly purchases of government bonds are going to be cut in half to fifteen

billion euros these purchases are executed to keep troubled european economies afloat but the e.c.b. did leave its key interest rate untouched at an all time low of zero point zero percent. france is europe's the second largest economy and home to some of the world's most successful companies and friends has a poverty problem nearly nine million people a third of them children live in poverty now french president mama mccraw often branded as a president of the rich by critics has unveiled a much anticipated plan to address the poverty problem but not everybody is happy about it this couple shares their room with their three children somebody who is disabled and his wife is ill since neither of them can work they rely on social welfare. now they. don't live on one thousand two hundred to one thousand three hundred euros a month. to cynical all we want is to have social housing at an affordable price so

that we can live like everyone else we struggle to live on that amount of money that is our man. that i have a medical condition and my wife to means we have to put up with the conditions to survive i know of. these who view now the french government has an ambitious plan to simplify the social welfare system it includes measures to help poor families with child care in addition to facilitating better education and access to the labor market for young people france has set aside eight billion euros for poverty reduction over the next four years but the plan has its critics. it is difficult for us to believe in the sincerity of a plan where there are n.t. poor laws especially for housing housing benefits have been lowered for eighteen months now its social housing organizations have financial difficulties and tenancy their standard of living is going downhill every day. as social inequality rises

people like some have seen their quality of life deteriorate for them measures to alleviate their situation cannot come soon enough it's back to phil now and children risking their lives to get an education off yes we're talking about the conflict in eastern ukraine which is largely fallen out of the headlines but there are still violent frequent flare ups despite an official ceasefire the two sides pro russia separatists and ukrainian government forces recently agreed to lay down their weapons to our children to go back to school after the summer break the agreements informal but asked the doubloon it commonly found in the frontline village. it comes as a great relief for the kids. and the morning and then of the trip to school without any shots being fired. reason enough for people here to be thankful.

for now the so-called school ceasefire seems to be holding after leaving home on the separatists side these people have passed through no man's land before crossing a narrow bridge and showing their passports. we're not allowed to film the moment the children and their parents cross the bridge or ukrainian military mind is a nervous they say are unexpected appearance could provoke the separatists. out to meet the students from the other side of the river the school principal lee said. she introduces us to dash and her two younger brothers. the one who accompanied. sasha is everything all right i didn't see you yesterday. all this might seem normal now but it was only a few days before the summer holidays that the last major round of shelling since everyone scrambling to cover this economic year school teach them one hundred sixty peoples age six to seventeen that's just half the number before the war the others

have long since left east and west together the patriotic pose to reach something this school does every day keeping children from both sides talking to each other. we meet dasher again she's been making the journey across the front line some three years now just me and my brothers were on our way to school suddenly lots of shooting started so we all got down it was really scary there was nowhere to hide. she. was we head down to the school. water candles and desks for all the pupils that's the extent of the provisions here and the schools improvised bomb shelter. and they did that on what don't believe anyone who says you can get used to war you never do. three children have died in the since the war began to preschoolers and one former student or does. i still remember the desk where used to sit in his handwriting. he was a talented boy. psychologically everyone has suffered through college now but could

only see. us she shows us what's left of the primary school buildings across the road gutted by a direct hit it was only because the shelling happened so early in the morning that no one died. it's time for lisette to return to class from their desks oh peoples can see deep and to separate to sell territory. from the classroom to the front line is a matter of just a few hundred meters. crossing upfront it's become part of everyday life for many of the children here and so is the shooting. there's not a single window in this entire school but hasn't needed to be replaced in the four years since the shooting began. and finally were allowed down to the river without the children. beyond the bridge between the front lines no man's land and it's through this under the gaze of snipers from both sides the students pause every day

. as the school day ends we join the children as they head back to with the checkpoints the experience of crossing the front day in day out hasn't put dasher off she tells us she wants to study to become a teacher so that she can come right back to it to teach in her school. they come late reporting you watching t w news still to come by endangered animals online campaign to sound the alarm over sales of red and exotic wildlife in thailand. don't forget you can always get d.w. news on the go just download opt out from google play well for me awful story that will give you access to all the latest news from around the world as well as push notifications for any breaking news also use it to send us photos and video. world news culture on how to business all the way here on data.

leave the dogs you might take a lesson that begins to how he operates i just messages always very promptly thoughtful he wants to listen to everyone because he asked me to put continental in the mob to the legacy media i'm talking about. he's been able to market to tell the story that you can still grow colin powell beginning from the south where this continent of africa. and the. business is with christopher now a defense of the u.s. china trade dispute spreading still south africa is one of the countries impacted the business climate and the second biggest economy of the african continent collapsed in the second quarter now the country's economy could see damages of two hundred million euros as its steel industry is being hit by the terrorists already imposed by the united states and china. the effects of u.s.

trade policy are apparent even ham since washington imposed punitive tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from china south africa's economy has felt the pinch. in the last three months steel production has sunk by six percent and experts fear things could get far worse the tariff increases from from the united states currently impact on the steel industry and so the figure out. there is still a quite large production in steel even so difficult it is being exported to us and there might be a dimension of approximately two hundred million euros mine operators are particularly concerned now that the u.s. is off limits chinese companies are keen to move into new markets production may well also decline in china and that'll affect the quantities of raw materials the

country needs. to go needs to look for other markets. the recent brics i'm not sure. so there is. talking to their partners in this regard. similar like germany does with keeping the channels all to asia and china. one plan is for south africa to establish a free trade zone with its neighbors in the sub-saharan region that would be a clear step towards reducing its dependence on existing sales markets. bacteria is devastating italy is all of industry it strikes down trees extremely quickly and leaves fields unusable so far the area affected is the equivalent of a thousand football pitches but there is hope for farmers in the form of a resistant. fastidious sap when it infects the tree

it causes with the rain which ultimately results in the trees death it was first discovered three years ago and has decimated plantations ever since leaving farmers like we not hokum gayety desperate. the poor want to be much. nothing is as it used to be. production has gone down by eighty percent this year. and the financial effects have been considerable. quantity when i went from fifty employees to zero and last week i had to let my secretary go after sixteen years. the diseases carried by sick adele's would sucking insects which spread the infection to healthy trees. what was the bacteria spreads forming a sort of barrier it prevents water from passing through the leaves the leaves dry up in the branches died due to lack of water together with his team at the

university of dust experimented on all of gross to find a plant resistant to the bacteria after five years of research success they found two potential candidates to heal the infected trees farmers combine the sick plants trunks with the newly discovered branches this way they hope they'll be able to revive italy's shaken olive oil industry. chris so now wildlife monitors in thailand say exotic and endangered species are being sold online after logging right through the watchdog group traffic house recorded a significant increase in activity amongst facebook groups selling life on the walls including some species that are under international protection while they took to social media just after to badger has been following about story welcome three how big a problem is this so traffic started looking into this in two thousand and sixteen

they tracked twelve facebook groups and they where monitoring these groups over the course of a month for about thirty minutes a day so it short period of time in that short period of time they found more than one thousand five hundred animals that were being sold and this is the kinds of posts that they found for example we have a hopefully soon we will be able to see a two month old white handed gibbon which is really cute but is also and endangered species it's been so it was being sold there for no more than five hundred dollars which is very alarming for a conservationists and traffic has been monitoring these pages for the last couple of years and they found over two hundred the different animal species being sold whether mammals birds and reptiles including some critically endangered animals and the problem has not been solved in the country and as you mentioned it has gotten

worse and we actually spoke with the head of the traffic's south east asia division and she told us that the number of sales has gone up since they begun the study back in two thousand and sixteen and so the sales illegal in many cases they are and thailand prohibits the sale of some of these animals actually half of the speeches that traffic found being sold on facebook they fall under his laws it's illegal to sell them on the other hand. mostly protect species that are native to the country and they don't really focus on known native species even when these might be protected under international conventions and so a lot of these animals which might be endangered but are not native to thailand they end up falling into this legal gray zone and it's not illegal to sell them strictly speaking in thailand even if this violates international agreements so many of these cells taking place on facebook what are they doing about this well

facebook has clear rules that forbids the selling of any on him or any of the most parts but it also has over two million users so it's very difficult struggling to regulate illegal activity on its platform and it also largely relies on its own community to report violations and we have seen this is not very scientific and we've seen it with false information with hate speech and ultimately the best of facebook really can do is to shut down an account or a group that violates its policies but which may help it may help in the short term but then it doesn't really solve the problem so collaborating with facebook it's up to authorities then to really take this problem seriously and do more to tackle it fredricka back to you thank you thank you. police in western germany have begun removing dozens of environmental activists from a force that is due to be cleared for coal mining activists have been living in

tree houses in an effort to prevent the forests destruction despite being removed by state protests on the way. this is what the escalation of a long running environmental battle looks like. police officers drag out activists from the humbucker forest in western germany near the city of cologne dozens of activists have called this forest home since twenty twelve now it's set to be cleared to allow for the mining of brown coal no mountains in sight and it's absolutely useless to clear the forest said this point the call that lies beneath us probably won't have to be mined anyway so i founded negligent that people are being put at risk right now on all sides. for years these activists have been holed up in some sixty three houses protesting the expansion of one of europe's largest lignite mines the mining company r w e owns this forest and is legally allowed to cut down the trees to access the coal r w e says the clearing is necessary to

ensure energy supply but the activists oppose the use of polluting fossil fuels they say the forest is home to protected species and their habitat must be preserved their protest comes at a time when germany is charting an exit from called powered energy to help combat climate change many activists are refusing to leave the forest just see it to be and it will get very complicated because the terrain here is extensive and we don't know who will find in the tree houses people may have chain themselves up there they could be violent and the removal could take hours if not days student invented target on. climate activists are calling for mass mobilization in the coming days in a bid to continue protecting the forest. let's get more on this from trying to comfort she is a energy economist with the german institute for economic research i don't have to live where you are in this battle between miners environment was a yes scientists and we did recent studies on the what is the situation in all time

best do we really need this coal for the energy security yes what about this forests we are now talking about and we see if we are taking this goals of climate . action and energy transition seriously we need to reduce the share of coal quite soon and this means we don't need really to row this whole forest and if the company would also be part of this new discussions we have at the german german committee or commission to talk about the coal eggs that we would recommend really to to reduce this battle ok so that better there are two aspects about whether there is one whether or not this company has the right to extract the coal on the other is is the country's energy policy working correctly so you seem to be indicating that if it is to work correctly they don't need the coca-cola the

company says it's our coal we can sell it yes and this is their right that's for sure true but now we have the situation that germany has decided to do energy transformation and for this the coal share needs to be reduced and this is why this new commission is there and they're talking exactly about how much coal do we need and how to phase out and if we now only have the company making these facts it's difficult to find a solution and to complement the government but we strongly recommending to not go for this escalation entry level cases so given your intimate knowledge of what's going on what do you think the german government has got it right is it being vigorous enough in moving away from coal no it's not ended what if needed to start years ago because so we now have the situation of this the share of coal is too high and we need more renewables in the system and the government has decided to go

for this energy transition but in the same time they would have needed to decide also to reduce the the share of coal ok so what's stopping them if this is their stated aim why aren't they moving far enough fast enough they have not. just enough in the past and now they have this commission and our they are talking and want to go for concrete recommendations they need these kind of recommendations and then the government will decide how to reduce the share of coal so now there's a big battle ok so we go for the micro in the forest to the to the macro in the policymakers back to the micro as police try to move these people out they've said they're going to continue their protests will you be going down there and manning the barricades without i will nod because we have to scientists and recommend recommend of what is really necessary what i would be advising also the government and also their kompany i would really recommend to reduce this battle and first

talk and then rode and now we have the time for talking and now we have to time to decide how to phase out coal in the future and that's through that first and then go for the next battle good talking to you thank you for joining us a cloud it came from thank you. the eastern seaboard of the united states is bracing itself for the arrival of hurricane florence the category two storm is expected to make landfall late this evening or early tomorrow morning almost two million people from virginia the carolinas and georgia have been ordered to leave low lying coastal areas officials are warning the florence will probably be the most dangerous hurricane to hit the region for a generation he predicted for meet a storm surge and heavy rain could cause widespread flooding and the loss of electricity to millions of households. d.w. correspondent my my schwager is in north carolina she told us how communities are preparing. the hurricane is not even here yet it's expected to make landfall

sometime late tonight or possibly early tomorrow morning but conditions here are getting very windy the water is rising underneath where i stand right now the biggest concern throughout the week of preparations has ben the prospect of flooding and flash flooding this is especially true in south carolina which is expected to take the brunt of the hurricane but even around here. a park right next to me that's basically on the water with no barrier and if this water rises even a little bit this whole area standing in front of me right here is going to be covered in water and people are really expecting that there really hasn't been much warning over what people should do where they should put their cars now up in virginia where we've also spent some time officials there have been a little more communicative with their population they've been press conferences they've been alerts they've been municipal sandbag areas where people can come prepare their houses for the rain although virginia is now expected to be almost

completely missed by the hurricane but so for officials in south carolina the biggest prospect is flooding especially because the hurricane is expected to stall out when it hits land and just dump all of its water right where it hits on the coast that's my schrade it reporting now evacuations have also begun in the northern philippines where a typhoon is speeding in from the pacific more than four million people live in the path of typhoon man caught on more than eight hundred thousand to being moved to safety the philippines weather bureau says my coat is nine hundred kilometers wide i'm talking months and i'm sustained speeds of two hundred five kilometers an hour it's expected to make landfall on saturday. the toronto international film festival better known as the tiff is drawing to a close so let us look back at what's been creating a buzz robin meryl is up with me here or sadly for you but you'll hear

wrote bags just the excitement of it and he says it's last film and also there's the long awaited sequel of one of the scariest films ever which i've never seen the end halloween which is made forty years ago starring jamie curtis forty years later it starring jamie lee curtis again the baddie michael meyers is getting out of jail and wants revenge she wants revenge can't tell you anymore anyway let's have a look at those three stars he was steve mcqueen's widows' about a robbery with a difference. after a heist goes wrong killing all men involved the wives of forced to pick up the pieces husbands are coming. i was in the fleet of planes for his next shot i was just kind of ahead for

sure chester anyway because i'm the only one standing between you and a bullet in your head i would go as follows huge filmmaking success the director steve mcqueen and expectations are high when i'm on set i have done is fair enough but it's all about making for your friend but the fear is always going to be around is how you make them a hole where a fair is whatever is well for him somehow. this is for guns guns somewhere figure it out. on my kids to know that i didn't just sit there and take it i did some. accusatory i'd like to open up an account of all my life album and family have not discovered. this drug. the old man in the gun tells the fact my story of the jail escapee and serial bank robber who spends going straight. to. their experience great place of hell that was

a light hearted trial about aging and regret and robert redford's swan song really . were located just up the drama trying to true story here is the one of the water. scarred by the events that took place forty years ago laurie strode once again faces off with the skate serial killer michael meyers. halloween picks up with a nine hundred seventy eight slasher movie left off reuniting miles with nick castle under the mask with strug. played by jamie lee curtis the final confrontation is one audiences thought they would never see i dare anyone to say the thing that forty years later we would be remaking or making a sequel to the movie we made one hundred seventy eight forty years ago i'm proud.

oh that's not going to end well is it really not everybody doing a bit of d.i.y. with i have a let's let's let's move on that's quite scary michael moore he's got a new film out and supposed to they're just hazard a guess what this is about i mean and you would be right of course the movie's co-found eleven on the eleventh nine refers to the date the ninth of november when we all woke up in two thousand and sixteen to find that hillary clinton wasn't to be the new president of the united states but donald trump was obviously it's a classic subject for michael moore but he does take it a bit further radio i mean he's very pessimistic about the future of american society i have to say it's actually pretty scary not hollywood in the different way in a way in a deeper way ruminating about the breakup of society in general here really is

michael moore himself explaining a bit more about the film. is also. very much about who we are as americans. because he didn't fall out of the sky. he's been around a long time and we've behaved in a certain way for a long time that. that when you look back now you can see how well the road was paved for him alex the. best see the american dream it's just so. resistant to our enemies the president here i am ladies and gentlemen the last president of the united states. mission we don't know how one writes for
