right wing populist and the greens if possible before the european elections in may she merkel and manfully their candidate for the european conservatives are prepared to take on the right wingers of the alternative for germany if d. is the next it's a right wing party in part an extreme right party and therefore we will fight with everything we have against exerting great influence in our country but if he is the german party if you want a situation like that in london vote if d. but if you want stability peace and cooperation on this continent vote c.d.u. and support us in the next european election the next nobody. the european elections will be the first litmus test for a crime karen barlow who may well be the next candidate for chancellor. she'll want to prove herself able to put together the right team and unite the party she'll need a loyal party secretary general happily for her the new one policy meowed was her

choice to try to end q.'s younger voters. overnight for a slogan proposed debates were passionate and more motions were submitted than usual at party setting out its future isn't it in those we have come to the end of a party conference day which in every way was a very unusual one where their historic run in a good way that is above all down to us just gets right in the wind and then serves . to close tradition the national anthem that remains otherwise the c.d.u. is looking for renewal to attend its power in germany and in europe. and the new cd year chiefest cd you chief has a signal she will not be taking the party to the right to try to win back voters ahead of those upcoming elections next year at the end of the party conference on a date come told the w.

she would secure the party's future and take on challenges from the right as a indeed most of all by remaining true to ourselves it's not a movement that follows personalities but a strong policy based party that's why today we've started the process of revising our manifesto which is to disclose its will and one of the most important questions for us is going to be how we shape our european elections campaign to support our joint candidates nonfood me about the mission that we can been given could influence on the minds i'm going to darton for months between. and come come our was i'm going to macos choice success and now that she is at the helm of the c.d.u. so my speculating marco might stand down as chancellor but insisted she would like to see merkel serve out a full term. in the well we has a federal cup. that's been elected for this legislative period angela merkel has said she's available to see it out on the party conference yesterday showed very

clearly that's what members wish it's also my personal wish and i see it as my task as the leader of the voting party to ensure this government has the stability it needs to fulfill its an actual mandate the new chief of the c.d.u. party there speaking to the well us president trump chief of staff is set to leave the white house us off to the two men reportedly stop speaking to each other in recent days gen john kelly was hired to end chaos at the white house but is now the latest member of the president in a circle to leave off the difficult midterm elections the republicans those close to the president say that kerry wasn't as politically savvy as trump would have liked his replacement has yet been asked. the president jumping out skellies departure on the white house lawn before boarding a helicopter so john kelly will be leaving for the end of the year at the end of the year. i appreciate his service very much thank you well let's go to washington

now and my coat can make a joins us so michael john kelly now all his way out why is he being dismissed and why now. well the exit of john kelly and have been rumored and talked about for a very long time and in fact the last couple days there were media reports that kelly was was about to leave his post in the next few days and that has happened now and the reason is that the chemistry between the president and kelly had deteriorated for a long time and they had that initially a good relationship but it has gone sour in s. as time moved on and so this this exit is just basically the last straw that broke the camel's back so to speak and when kelly started his his his tenure he was kind of deemed as one of the adults in the room so to speak to kind of try to curtail trump and try to bring order to the white house and as it turns out and people quickly learned trump doesn't really want to be controlled by kill you or by no one

else and so this was just a matter of time until a trump and kelly parted ways but it's not actually so unusual for a president to reshuffle his cabinet often italian actions and it seems that business king see one insider to take on the chief of staff job so is this a case of business as usual. frankly and it kind of feels strange to say that it is normal it is almost normal it is almost business as usual because as you said presidents tend to reshuffle their cabinet after the midterms and two years in office and this is what trump has been doing in recent days having said that the the likely candidate nick ayers is also kind of a normal candidate he's a republican insider he is the current leader the chief of staff of vice president mike pence and he's from hails from georgia important state for the for the conservatives so it's kind of strange to say that but yes this is kind of business

as usual a matter for trump these days michael can you get can you get putting it all into perspective for us thanks out. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world six people including five teenagers have died and dozens are injured after a stampede in a nightclub and the italian city of one corner police are investigating claims that the crash was triggered when a pepper spray like substance be released into the crowd during a rock concert. a u.s. jury has found the man who drove his car into a crowd of protesters in charlottesville virginia is guilty of first degree murder prosecutors described twenty one year old alex fields jr as a white supremacist and woman was killed when his car hit people demonstrating against a white nationalist rally last year. needing russian human rights activists to nude mina alexei never has died she was ninety one and among the last

they stole still a lot of fearing a lot of anger amongst the protesters a lot of months a lot of people three four three quarters of the french are supporting the protest movement because they understand that they're angry they say it's very difficult for many people to make ends meet especially they speak will you live in the countryside and for example need their car to go to work and for them such a few tax was first announced by the government would have been disastrous really say in my mccoy's going to talk to french television we understand on monday night and we will see what he'll say maybe maybe he'll put some new measures on table indeed. our correspondent lisa lewis reporting from nationals in paris where it is the most prestigious competition in south america football but this weekend the final of the copa libertadores will be played in europe but could you use take on river plate in spain's capital madrid on sunday off to find violence mark the first
