a matter of partisan politics to say we don't target certain groups of people based on what they look like. or how did you ever who they love. because we don't want to go back to the obama days of low wages high unemployment rising crime open borders far left judges oppressive regulations horrible horrible horrible trade deals. with all of the rhetoric telling people how to vote what are the issues that americans really care about in our washington correspondent has this round up. government spending you must. build the wall with the midterm elections approaching voters are under a barrage of political ads from both parties republicans got

a big thrill. just in case i need to round up criminal illegals and take a moment will democrats dan however i approve of town halls bad singing in this message are both trying to drill their respective messages into the political conscience of the american electorate it's getting less. real. and very confusing what are actually the topics the political agendas which make voters interested and going to the polls coming november sixth according to our experts panel of the political topics voters really care about it the midterms are well i think the biggest issue that's at forefront right now is health care the top issues in this election are the economy health care immigration trade and guns the economy health care trade and then local issues the economy it's booming sure peak for the republicans trying to get voters to cast the ballots for them the message

don't vote democrats you lose your job and pay more taxes or as the president puts it democrats produce republicans produce jobs however republicans have just now started something like an blitz on the economy perhaps a template in the campaign the economy and health care always issues that are elections health care that's a bread and butter issue for the democrats the republican failed to replace the affordable care act better known as obamacare health care a winner for democrats so what happened to immigration and guns trump is clearly trying to nationalize the immigration debate nationalize the gun debate. immigration a biggie for the president. racism the least racist person but the latest campaign ad posted on president trump's twitter account has sparked accusations of being blatantly racist politics anybody. for democrats trump is the gift that keeps on giving not only is the liberal democratic voter base fired up about

going to the polls come november sixth. it's specifically white educated suburban women who voted for trump in two thousand and sixteen who now seem to be turning to the democrats i think i share the conventional wisdom that the democrats will regain the house of representatives the republicans will perhaps cedar to in the senate no matter what the outcome on november sixth will be the twenty twenty presidential campaign has already started since as they say here in washington every election is always a referendum on the sitting president. meanwhile twitter has suspended thousands of automated accounts and karajan people not to vote in tuesday's election in a statement by twitter on friday the social media giant said it had removed a series of a concept attempting to share dissing formation in an automated fashion many of the bogus users reportedly posed as democrats and were kicked off the platform in early october the company says the upcoming midterms are the most tweeted about in the

restrictions i do to hit on monday after having been lifted for the past three years now the extensive sanctions will curtail iran's oil sales exports and shipping industries as well as cut the country off from international lenders and foreign business partner. when are joined by the guardian's iran correspondent saeed kamali dechen thank you for joining us saeed so the u.s. says that these sanctions are aimed at the government and not the ukrainian people is it going to work this way i mean this sanctions let me be very clear dissensions target everyone inside iran sanctions targeting thousands of patients in need of lives that are nuts and as you found out yesterday or indeed there is no exemption of course sanctions are not directly targeted but in practice at least as we saw seven years ago five years ago as well they are going to be a huge obstacle to imports of sense and life mates and life saving medicines to

iran because basically no banking relations between iranian balance outside iran i mean when i today when i'm talking to you there's not a single tier one european bank that is doing business with anyone with anywhere inside iran so if you're a pharmacist inside iran it's your forms to the company in need of those huge medicines that you need important medicines and you need you don't have any ways of bringing the whole right so saved given that you've said these sanctions will affect everyone what will their reintroduction mean for everyday iranians. i mean these are the most stringent sanctions that the president tom has imposed on iran the first set of sanctions came into effect in august but these sanctions is about or embargo in a country which is heavily still dependent on oil so that means all aspects of iranian lives iranians from different walks of life are going to be affected if you're an iranian a student who are planning to go abroad for your our education for example if you

are i mean if you want to go on holiday or anything it would be hugely effective i mean we've already seen the iranian currency basically collapsing in our dollar is true times pricier than last year and we've seen a wave of protests in the streets and these are primarily because of pressure from outside and ironically it's going to be europe that is going to there i mean and the pressure on if people are going to leave iran the first place they would go would be let the europe and ironically of course europe is opposed to president trance policy on iran and yesterday as well the e.u. was very strong that i mean these sanctions are not in a should not be imposed basically because as the i.a.e.a. the international atomic energy agency has very five twelve times iran has admitted by the rules of basically dissensions are unilateral imposed by the u.s. and also they are they are trying to go illegal as well because we've had the international court of justice ruling not long ago and the act champ is hoping to

use these sanctions to force a run into signing a new nuclear deal how likely is iran going to do that i mean if you look back to two thousand and fifteen when that agreement was signed i was covering it from geneva and other places myself i mean it was a result of tool years of negotiations and and i doubt personally that there's going to be any deal but in what is on the table of course it doesn't address a lot of issues that americans are concerned with like of the less our program for example but it was not supposed to address the matter of we're going to the first place it was. you know it was gross. book your activities and today iran has a veto by the rules i mean iran has shipped out most of those enrich uranium i mean a lot of it centrifuges inside inside iran and there is no sign whatsoever that they are and they are changing their attitude so come early dec and thank you for your insight. let's have
