referendum on bret's it but those calls are growing. for remains supporters gathered outside the british parliament to reason mees humiliation was a sign of hope defeat for the prime minister's bragg's deal could open the door to a so-called people support a second referendum on e.u. membership the eyes to the right two hundred into. the nose to the left four hundred and thirty two of the. government despite her resigning defeat to reason may says she is determined to deliver brags it to the british people but even some within her own party believe a second referendum is no the only option parliamentarians do have some duties and one of them is to prevent people from committing national suicide and no deal breaks it. down or. the issue of. first me faces a no confidence vote and her government the rebels within her party have signaled
5:03 pm
that they will back her position is secure unless the very person. goes through which seems very unlikely she emphasized that she'd come in to deliver breaks it and. such faith is in short supply in today's british newspapers and the labor made of london a city that voted overwhelmingly against briggs it also added his weight to calls for a fresh referendum. surely the best option is to give the british public i say for the first time or they. cept the promises deal with the option of remaining in the there's no need for this panic but for some panic is clearly beginning to set in business is booming at this english storage firm with companies stockpiling goods and fear of a new deal inspired catastrophe in just over two months time to london then where we're joined they don't because we're going to face the welcome barbara so well with his mates government survive today's no confidence vote yes it will it seems
5:04 pm
quite certain because even the northern irish do you pete who is most uncompromising about saying no to the brics a deal has voted beforehand that they would support theories that may as prime minister the sentence in here is a no to the bricks and deal with her own party but yes the reason may and the reason for that is quite simple there is nobody else there is nobody within the ranks of the conservatives who sort of wants to take up office at this point in time wants to have to deal with the fractious relations within the party and wants to be the one who has to sort of push through the go so notaries i'm a will carry on how long however is another question labor his vote they would presume her was a series of no confidence votes and finally in the end after maybe the fist or second or sixth or seventh attempt it might even go wrong ok so theresa may stagger
5:05 pm
. where does that leave the whole process of the clock ticking down. it leaves the process of rexx it in limbo totally because new movement is possible until palm and has found a way to figure out where possible majorities can lie and that will not that process will not start the four next monday next monday cerys it may has to come up to parliament and sort of an ounce a kind of deal plan b. which might be just exactly like a just was a few modifications and maybe a few promises to go back to brazos and see what further concessions she can get there however palm and once and will probably take back control from government at this point and there might be a series of those figuring out whether there's a majority for a no way solution a majority for a customs union are after all in the end majority for

a second referendum. in london thank you. the european leaders have been giving their reactions to last night's first his german chancellor macko perhaps giving theresa may some wiggle room. i deeply regret the fact that the house of commons has rejected the agreement on prisons departure from the e.u. . we believe it is now up to the british sides to say what happens next as the prime minister has announced he will. want to keep the damage which will inevitably follow from bracks that as small as possible. that is why we will continue to seek an orderly solution by to. still have time to negotiate but we will wait to see what the prime minister proposes. to. see. commercial not european union a fast he told the w.c.
5:07 pm
political editor. that it's looking increasingly likely that the u.k. will crash out of europe without a deal. basically when we heard the german tonsil say that there's still time to negotiate but how much room is there still to negotiate from the side of brussels and berlin if there is to be a potential plan b. for theresa may now with see a certain difficulty because we have first an agreement which was not exit accepted in the british parliament yesterday evening and now it's up to britain to show what will be the next step and where they say can recognise some solutions but i think the probability increase that we will have no agreement and that means and heartbreak set how likely is that right now. as i told you ini it increased enormously because i think it will be difficult to convince more than two hundred members of parliament to change their opinion and afterwards they have also to
5:08 pm
justify this change men in their own constituencies so let's say you want to write some may well propose knol because she announced that she will have a plan b. i'm very curious for further information if britain cannot figure out what is actually one's what can brussels what kind of need to then it's rather difficult also for the european union because both sides have to meet in and the next associations are. finally done so the agreement was done and now it was not accepted in the british parliament and we have to be aware that there is no deal at the moment we regret it and we regret also that united kingdom will leave european union quite clear but we have also to find solutions now for the time after the twenty ninth of

march because. heartbreaks it will have a deep impact for european union. but especially for great britain basically found thank you very much think. well britain's tories may is not the only european prime minister facing a no confidence vote today greece's alexis tsipras has called a confidence vote in his own government is a coalition collapse when conservative defense minister promised comment also resigned over neighboring macedonia's plans to change its name the prime minister's leftists if it's a proxy marks a parliamentary majority or could win the confidence vote if enough opposition m.p.'s abstain. kenya's president says fourteen bystanders and an unspecified number of gunmen were killed in a terror attack on a hotel in shopping complex in nairobi on tuesday security forces were able to rescue more than seven hundred people harmed but with as many as fifty still unaccounted for many kenyans are voicing their skepticism about the government's

5:12 pm
these people get into our country and we have a. good while many are asking the question help the al qaeda linked group to carry out another attack in nairobi alba is a simply struggling with the fact that their loved ones are no longer there. and they don't because for most of them a co is in nairobi she told us why the somali jihadi group al-shabaab is so strong in kenya the kenyan government hasn't officially said that they believe this responsible although it said a terrorist attack. is the most extremist group based in. somalia and regions of somalia which which the government hasn't been able to control that. the somali government in kenya. kenya is part of the their recruiting ground there. the auto between kenya and somalia is very porous and historically both somalis some of these have been living in. kenya and have crossed

5:15 pm
highest homicide rates. brazil's president. reversing earlier strict regulations dissension prevented civilians from bearing firearms. in order to guarantee the citizens this legitimate right of defense as president will use this weapon. the decree opens up gun ownership to adults over twenty five living in rural areas or high crime urban areas they must have no criminal record and a gun club course is obligatory. in a country that almost sixty four thousand homicides in two thousand and seventeen both scenarios hardline law and order platform has one of support from those who see why do gun ownership is a better way to protect themselves. the
5:16 pm
new. violence but at least it gives a chance to citizens to defend themselves if they are a victim of police who are doing the job they should. a recent poll by the data phone company though suggests most brazilian support the previous restrictions on gun ownership they fear more guns will mean more danger it's very clear. that everybody that lives and three may have now the right to own for its next plane and all of a license to kill that was never seen before it was so i think that easing gun ownership is not good i don't think that's the way we'll improve the situation in brazil it's not fire against fire. for now
5:17 pm
brazilian police the military a still the only ones allowed to bear arms in public the big fear for many critics is that it might not be long now before ball sonera allow civilian gun owners to join them. the sport of lacrosse is increasingly popular across the globe and in africa uganda is leading the pack the east african nation has taken part in the last two editions of the world across championships making it the only side ever to represent the continent and it's hoping to grow the sport even further. we is hoping to inspire the youngsters in his hometown to play lacrosse. he's both a player and coach in the ugandan national team. so after playing for a while in karbala. i came back to a community of trees that saw what i didn't have what i didn't get. it's
5:18 pm
what i wanted to give back to the community. cos was only introduced to uganda in twenty twelve and is leading the sport's growth on the continent. but its future in africa depends on investment with two associations formed to help support the country's community of players and funds. close i'd like to play loki so inefficient. if i live that chris and they become one of the bass players i want to be paid. this school fees uganda has big dreams of sending their team to the olympics and time is on their side with the sport possibly returning to the summer games in twenty twenty eight. there's a days where by brazil in our house the bricks that fall out you have as you know
5:19 pm
fell just two months left and what. they bring france is speeding up preparations for a no deal break that telling businesses to get ready for the worst germany is also on edge. if it were a hard bricks it would of course have major consequences for prosperity in charge especially in britain but we as a country that exports a great deal of a briton and have very close economic ties we have no interest in hard. business suffered very much because you have to see that british german trade for example is at one hundred eighty five billion a year and germany has a surplus with britain at about forty five billion a year germany of course due to this fact there will be immediately the necessity of. millions of new. duty procedures. dealing with the regulations and this. will cost approximately.
5:20 pm
several hundreds of millions of euro for term and business. corp is saying buy for us at the frankfurt stock exchange to run us through the day it's been a funny one the break that rebuff a saudi made a blip on exchanges worldwide. what. very interesting i mean the logic of the market is sometimes so hard to understand who thought this morning that now by the end of the trading day we are even in the green here at the blue chip index stocks well investors were already prepared for the scenario that a reason may would most likely not get this through parliament so nobody was surprised investors are of course a little bit reluctant that's why we're also not seeing the fruits of index tax really big in the winning zone they're waiting now to see what is going to happen
5:21 pm
with this no confidence vote and while nobody of course once the heart breaks when they hear the rumor that maybe at the very end there might not even be a break said that gives them some hope and that's why the market is reacting at this reacting today so should businesses be getting ready for no deal breaks. well it's so hard to say it seems that everything right now is possible an extension of article fifty with the u.k. leaving maybe some months later no breakfast scenario but we when you talk to investors and also true of businesses here in germany most of them are prepared it also seems when you take a look at the european level not even the european leaders seem to know in which direction all of this is going to go we heard the german chancellor stating a little bit earlier that there is still time for negotiation in the coming weeks we heard the austrian chance that course a little bit earlier stating that he doesn't think that there will be more space
5:22 pm
for negotiation so a lot off and answered questions let's see how all of this is really going to develop. in frankfurt. turkey has kept its main interest rate unchanged helping the leader rally against the dollar today the turkish currency is having a crisis losing more than forty percent of its value over the past year and that's hitting importers hard very enjoins reports from istanbul. has spent his life building the big construct brand in turkey selling a few thousand back in ninety five sales are now in the hundreds of thousands companies selling imported goods but turkish currency collapse is posing unique and formidable challenges. i've worked too hard to establish this brand in turkey and to explain birkenstock special souls to customers i want to allow my efforts to be spoiled by crisis situations like the recent one we've put
5:23 pm
a pricing policy into effect by weaving our profit just like we've done in the past when we opted to expand the brand in turkey the crisis though has struck a big blow to us we've had greek losses for the currency collapse could not have come at a worse time for peyton having just been gauged on the major buying. of shops across the country many opened in shopping malls whose numbers have exploded with part of a nationwide construction boom adding to the financial pressure the rents in the malls are normally in dollars or euros because most owners have borrowed in foreign currency to build the molds. so mouse shop owners have had some rare good news with the presidential decree ending the practice of foreign currency rents but the stores selling solely imported goods whose prices have risen substantially it still remains a struggle. our customers are remember the prices from last year can clearly feel
5:24 pm
the increase the higher prices make us get into conversations with their customers about the exchange rate they ask us the reason for the increase and we have to explain the exchange rate situation. as i said this makes people think twice before buying. it that's the way it is with other brands too not just ours. given the few customers that visit the shop most are just looking as a crisis is already hitting people's pockets. the crisis affected the way i shop for brands i now wait for sales and listen it back at the big can stop turkey head office discussions on brainstorming on how to weather the economic storm continue thirty years in business betting is no stranger to currency shocks and prices but he is aware of the scale of the challenge facing him. turkey has seen big economic crises and in my opinion this one is the biggest so far at least the biggest one
5:25 pm
i've experienced but we'll overcome it gushes bettin has weathered many storms in his career to bring bacon stock to turkey but with economists warning of a session next year this could be toughest battle yet. and what a day for the european parliament to be holding its first session of twenty nineteen as the brits have a cove a break that representatives today celebrating this year's twentieth anniversary of europe's common currency with the so-called and of europe. was meant as a farewell to the u.k. well briggs it of course isn't the only challenge facing the european union on
