storm. what they're going to do with the changes you know we want to avoid is that countries in the world and i think everyone is still reeling farms in that area. they will rejoice at the lines of stronger want to ever make landfall. because and that from there and we're still learning from that experience took calls for you and it is actually rationed more seriously the government was really much more serious about this bill casualty. the article mark one of the casualties and i can quit doing pretty well so far than what he did who reported that a lot more people were evacuated who even before that so our we were also on guard . with prepositioned they think because. people were evacuating that didn't i didn't care for the chaos of the situation ok antos

a if tea party has failed as a strategy do you think. well this is here consider themselves the most right wing party that should be sitting in a bit varian palm and done so then they're simply not used to competition from even the to the right of the political spectrum and there were a lot of scenes year fissionables to openly criticize the medical for her refugee policy in twenty fifteen and in the years since twenty fifteen and so now they have to bridge that gap between still representing democratic values but also a tough stance on migration and not lose people to the if the not lose votes as some people did take on the new approach like costlier for the interior minister where sometimes. sounded extremely right wing populist and this strategy does not

seem to have worked that's what the polls show the c.s. uses it to record low at the moment so i asked. a member of the european parliament for the c.s.u. just how this is used trying to win back if the voters. do so completely different right rightwing pardue not to compare with the seniors who we want to help people who are all skiing for asylum in europe it's not that it's an issue but you also want the to know that we don't know on the basis you know that we have a regular procedure to be established that you know who is coming into our country this is different to the a it's dean who simply says no it's because there's no refugees at all in our country that is not our line you know. and speaking there and i mean at the varying conservatives have brewed the state for more than seventy years and it looks like they're about to lose their absolute majority and why is this so significant. well the sea this year is

a special party in that it can only be elected in bavaria bavaria is one of germany's strongest economically strongest federal states and so the c.s.u. has been ruling here by itself for decades and of course the stronger the c.s.u. is in bavaria the more say a more impetus to see as you has on the national level because under mantles c.d.u. is their sister party the c.d.u. is not electable in bavaria and so the week of the sea is you is here the week the conservatives are in germany. their party leader are saying over is at odds with chancellor angela merkel is the threat to her and the federal government. so many say that hosty over has been acting in trig stream erratic li many people who've known him for years don't really understand is the pavior because he openly criticizes until america and the coalition survive the near collapse in in the

summer in june because of course the office provocations tools i'm glad merkel there will be a crisis meeting between the coalition partners including the social democrats on tuesday coming up and of course it's not the last day we're under american haasil for will be at odds over the future of the government coalition in berlin. in munich thank you. think a football dortmund beat frankfurt three one in the fight in ny and they're now in first place at least for a day so we're finding out to diablo opened the scoring for dortmund in the thirty sixth minute his first goal for the black and yellows and the sixty eighth when it's about a lair equalise for frankfurt hammering home a damning to cost across a diet which is four minutes later door eventually took the latest arias fall flat . two minutes from time. round today at the home victory with the defeat goal.

tainted meat a common issue for mexican athletes in any case the counterpunch specialist prefers to hit back in the ring when. you're ready know if you follow my fighting career that i never like to talk i do it in the ring it's my job to perform in there so i hope everyone enjoys this huge fight and a huge victory for my fans and for all of mexico. at friday's weigh in his opponents cannot be good not give it a confident figure a triple g. is feared for his ferocious punching power is undefeated and has two belts to. cut. also showed a cool head when the two faced up after the successful weigh in and wasn't impressed with kanellos antics. so he's like a clone his shoulder when he's natural guy. it's rare in boxing that fights live up
