thirty seven max just when you still fly in one we put that question to air travelers here in germany. plus g.w. talks to the family of a suicide bomber who brought india and pakistan to the brink of war military and police measures arrested and tortured people it forces people to resist that's why people want to join the militants everybody wants to pick up a gun. our correspondent goes to kashmir for a look at what's fueling conflict in the disputed region. i'm sunni so much god it's good to have you with us. it is time for britain to get its act together that is the message coming from the used chief breads of negotiator michele bunny ahead of a vote today in the british parliament now lawmakers must decide whether to leave the e.u. . without a deal on
11:02 am
a future relationship it follows last night's overwhelming rejection of teresa mayes final agreement with brussels. it was one of the biggest parliamentary defeats ever for a sitting prime minister many of the dissenting votes came from within prime minister to resign may's own party as the results were announced it was clear may had lost her authority and her voice on a point of order this is speaker i profoundly agree to the decision that this house has taken tonight i continue to believe that by far the best outcome is you know she's kingdom east european union and orderly fashion with the. lawmakers were frustrated that many had earlier failed to secure a watertight agreement in stroudsburg to limit the so-called backstop that would keep northern ireland in a customs union with the e.u. for you opposition leader jeremy called and said the defeat signalled that may's time was up the prime minister's run down the clock on their caucus rain run out on
11:03 am
or maybe it's time instead we had a general election and the people of being true to their government should pay now you can lawmakers face a vote on whether to leave the e.u. with no deal at all and some european leaders see that as highly possible and better than giving in to the hardline brick city is. likelihood of ability to break cities more than fifty percent i'm sure that this is what i feel but again the damage that this would cause would. bail in comparison with the damage that would be caused by conceding basically the destruction of the single market the british public is just as invited as their politicians with just sixteen days to go to the break the deadline no deal could be just around the corner. straight as another day another vote expected on brags that this evening let's bring in our correspondents following the story forsberg is in london and max huffman is in. good to see you
11:04 am
both ok let's start with you so parliament giving a tourism a a very clear no to her deal for the for britain leaving the european union what are we expecting for the vote today. yes polman is really giving to reason may a hard time and they've really throwing the government in utter disarray with the vote yesterday so we are expecting today in the vote and polman is going to say no to a new deal to palm and does not want the u.k. to crash out the european union at the end of march in just two weeks time without any arrangements for the future we expecting them to vote against that what will happen then is another vote most likely tomorrow when it's a vote on a possible extension of the period that the u.k. stays in the european union and we're expecting them also vote for it so the most likely outcome is an extension at least this is what parliamentarians are most likely to say that this is what they want then it's up to the e.u.
11:05 am
but if there is no agreement at all the default position is still that the u.k. leaves without anything at the end of march in just two weeks time right max we heard it there now it is up to the u.s. centrally theresa may it sounds like could come back to the e.u. asking for an extension will the european union give it. there is a certain degree of sympathy sumi towards that project of an extension although we do get the feeling that that sympathy is waning with every day one thing is clear the parliamentarians we have talked to say no extension without clarification clarification meaning what exactly do the brits want to do with this extension and nobody here really thinks that the current government with the current constellation in the house of commons is able to give those clarifications so what we're finding here now is a certain degree of resignation including from month they have a possible future head of the e.u.
11:06 am
commission and head of the european people's party i talked to him earlier and this is what he had to say if the british side is not capable to give as an ounce of what they want to do with suppress that outcome of the referendum you say cannot conclude if the political class failed so totally encrypt it and then be as europeans cannot solve separatists domestic internal problems that's a situation we are ready even gave additional confirmations and it will an additional messages to our friends and for it to be clear that backstop is only a temporary solution so it's really up to them he cannot carry fi there are problems that's up to them if they are not capable to do so then problematic situation the become so you also said no extension without calera cation he doesn't really believe that the british government is able to clarify anything at the moment i'm mexican here the tones of frustration in those voices there how concerned are you leaders that the in certainty that is engulfing the u.k. at the moment will start to affect things like trade and travel in the rest of europe
11:07 am
. well mr bunn you the chief you commission negotiator for the brags that just spoke here in strasburg in the european parliament and he said the e.u. is ready he also called upon all peoples and all parties to prepare for a no deal bragg's we also talked to business leaders in the past weeks and months and it seems they are they they have adapted to the situation of course you do that when you lead a business you don't start on the twenty ninth of march looking for new partners for new ways to produce your products that formerly might have been produced in the u.k. so they are as ready as they can be right now and that doesn't mean that to of course trade the economy overall in the european union would take a hit but it would be much smaller than the hit the u.k. would have to take back it is that true we keep hearing that a no deal breaks it would be catastrophic water or
11:08 am
a business owners companies they're saying. well yes for sure we had the head of the c.b.i. the biggest business lobby group this morning saying that this is no way to run the country she was criticizing the government's handling of the economy they have made an announcement on slashing import tariffs she said it wasn't business wasn't consulted i think business really feels that they're not being listened to and we've also had the car industry reacting to what's happening they think even if import tariffs are slashed as the u.k. government has announced this morning that would not resolve the crisis of the car industry that would be the result of of a no deal bragg's it sort of a disorderly briggs's so it is a lot of concern in the business wells and especially for the colleges three they've been saying time and again it would be a seismic shift if the u.k. would leave without any deal at all big called so on as to what's going to happen here in the next few weeks all right our correspondents in london and of mine in
11:09 am
strasburg thank you. let's catch up on some other stories making news around the world in syria u.s. backed forces have shelled the final strip of territory held by the so-called islamic state in the town of boggles one report described the jihadists cornered in a seven hundred square meter cluster of bombed out buildings some three thousand jihadists have surrendered to the mainly kurdish forces since monday. south korea's parliament has passed legislation to combat air pollution after the country suffered as especially high pollution levels earlier this month the new laws declare pollution a social disaster designation that gives the government access to more funds to use for emergency measures. the u.s. justice department has charged fifty mostly wealthy parents with fraud after they cheated to get their children into alit american universities including yale stanford and georgetown those charged include c.e.o.'s of major companies and the

hollywood actresses felicity huffman and lori loughlin they allegedly conspired to falsify records and bribed college officials to influence the admissions process. an australian court has sentenced cardinal george powell a former close advisor to pope francis to six years in prison for child sex abuse the vatican's former finance minister was found guilty of molesting two choir boys twenty years ago he is the most senior catholic cleric to be sentenced for child sex abuse. let's bring in our religious affairs correspondent martin got for more on this story hi mark and as we said most senior member of the clergy to be charged with historical child sex abuse how significant is this is very significant but the story has been very significant from the very moment that the vatican the pope in particular allowed him to return to australia to face charges those were the terms in which it was. back then i mean this as you
11:11 am
said is the most in your view you're in the vatican in the vatican higher and it's also an extremely extremely visual field you're sort of in greece and church politics so that goes to say that there's actually a very significant case what's important to note that we actually weren't allowed to talk about this case until just a few weeks ago when the court lifted a gag order let's take a closer look now at cardinal pell's case and also some of the other cases that are currently rocking the catholic church. he used to be one of the most powerful men in the australian catholic church but now george pell has fallen from grace sentenced to six years in prison the form of that he can trash be registered as a sex offender for the rest of his life. case is just one of many that have rocked the church in recent months. last week french cardinal philip convicted of covering up for a priest who serially abused boys he was given
11:12 am
a six month suspended sentence and in february another blow for the church the pope defrocked former us to know theodore mccarrick he had helped us church policy against abuse thousands but mccarrick was himself later found guilty of molestation in two thousand and eighteen chilean bishop and his entire church leadership resigned police are investigating hundreds of abuse claims in chile along with a major coverup. case had pope francis hard because he had initially defended. but the jailing of george pell is perhaps one of the most damaging scandals for the catholic church the seventy seven year old belongs to the pope's inner circle. the pontiff is under great pressure to address to clergy abuse issues last month he promised that abuses would be brought to justice but the scandals have already cost
11:13 am
many to lose faith in the church. martin let's take a look at the case of cardinal pell he was a close advisor of pope francis so how close is he really to the top i mean there was a bit of a political alliance that had to do with the fact that both came with a very strong reform agenda particularly bell was very concerned with vatican finances and had been very vocal over that about the existence of the vatican bank . and when the pope i mean when friends is going to the pub to see he appointed belled to essentially oversee that operation at the very same time i mean these were not close friends so to say i mean they come from very very different political political corner as well though with somebody that within the context of essentially. got the look church was seen as somewhat of a liberal he still belong to something that was clear to the right of this pope so in a sense it came as a bit of a surprise when the pope actually allowed him to first testify in front of us are
11:14 am
now authorities from rome he was disintegrating knowledge to appear on a on a t.v. line which would save me or would would melbourne i believe but at the very same time it was remarkable actually to essentially the lever into the hands of us really know authorities where there was really no precedent for such a thing taking place it comes at a time when the pressure really is rising on the catholic church to deliver clear outcomes on how it will address sexual abuse in its ranks is anything changing with that pressure with my sense is that there have been major changes and i mean in the last couple of weeks we have essentially three very big stories we have macquarie who was different perhaps belatedly i mean he's living you know a retired life in guns but it's still a very very senior figure in the american church know the bell case but also the pope's reaction to the summit on sexual abuse in which he turned on his church and accused him quite directly of covering up rape and off you saying i mean you're allowing essential child pornography within the church in seven or so these are
11:15 am
very big. gk gestures some of them but at the very same time the fact that we are beginning to see justice investigating church operations is a major the element in the story and i think that if you blinked you would not see it but paying attention to greeley shows a change in the tide ok our religious affairs correspondent martin thank you very much welcome. you're watching news still to come on the program boeing's at seven thirty seven math is banned from much of the world skies after the ethiopian airlines crash but the u.s. still backs the popular will talk to the german government aviation court later on whether the plane should be grounded or not. but first just a few weeks ago india and pakistan came close to a full blown armed conflict after a suicide attack on indian troops in indian controlled kashmir the two countries have been locked in a dispute over this region for decades an armed insurgency has been underway in the

he was injured and bedridden for months he lost a year of college. my son went to help a protester who was hit by a bullet but he was also shot in the leg by security forces he couldn't get over the incident he didn't talk to but he was seething with anger every time he saw the military. it's a situation says it's all too common in the region the family lost contact with our the last year. we knew he had become a militant we tried to find them but we couldn't. we can't raise our voice here. the military and police mike arrests and torture people it forces people to resist that's why people want to join the militants everybody wants to pick up a gun i question only my child even well educated young people are joining the movement got to do we are not terrorists our children are not terrorists military
11:18 am
personnel are not terrorists it's politicians who are the terrorists. and insurgency against indian rule first began here in one thousand tonight. the fall small and now a top d.c. it's increasingly growing local recruits like. they come from villages like this one in the southern part of the kashmir valley considered a hotbed of militancy. officials to go show last year alone security forces killed more than two hundred fifty militants in the region. since the recent escalation in tensions between india and pakistan the indian army has intensified its crackdown here. today the city of srinagar has shut down after a strike called by separatist groups. it's an all too common sight in the battle. for young people here it's almost impossible to have
11:19 am
a normal life and what is her duty sick we miss lessons when schools close down because of the strikes me bar mothers worry we might get hit by a bullet if we go out of. the money very everyone i can assure everyone has this anger that they're not there moments are the moments are handed every they cannot go. with india and pakistan on high alert following the recent tensions people in indian controlled kashmir are bracing for more protests strikes and by us . further inflaming the conflict that has already been smoldering for decades. aircraft maker boeing and the u.s. federal aviation administration are increasingly isolated and refusing to ground the boeing seven thirty seven max following sunday's fatal crash in ethiopia investigators there are sifting through the wreckage of the brand new seven thirty seven that crashed minutes after takeoff if you'll be an airline says the flight
11:20 am
recorders will be sent abroad for analysis it was the second disaster involving a new seven thirty seven max after a crash in indonesia five months ago air lies and airlines and countries around the world of ground of the plane but the u.s. and boeing insist that it remain safe to operate the european union's ban is affecting flights across europe. and we can speak to thomas at some back he's a member of parliament with angela merkel's conservative she's also the government's aviation coordinator missy i was on back thank you very much for joining us you have warned in an interview with german media against being too hasty in banning this plane the seven thirty seven max why so it's the case that the plane in the end had a certification by a so and the regular cases that we at first have to find all of what happened once an incident happened what we have seen right now all but in the end it's going to big and the decision by the ministry of transportation is right from
11:21 am
a point of view that they decided in a coordinated european acts that the concerns are too big and first we have to be clear that the safety of the passenger is absolutely guaranteed but what did you mean by saying that we shouldn't be too hasty and banning this plane from air space from airlines from their fleets. well look we have european sky and i don't believe it's a wise idea for a single country to make its own things so in the end we have spoken to all european partners the whole day and in the end there is also the question of a plane which was which was certified by. a and i'll torrid to use the plane that will be fired can we go there and say concerns are too big but in the end the concerns were too big and i believe it's the right decision that's been made what do you think of the u.s. decision to keep these planes flying can you understand that perspective. i believe
11:22 am
the decision by the f a but from our point of view safety of the passengers must be first priority the technical investigations take plenty of time as we know and we know that the two black boxes still have to be extracted they have to be analyzed they're going to be sent abroad and we've seen two planes of the same model crashing in a short space of time do you see any future for this for this plane in europe the european air space i think it's very important to find out what really happened right now and in the end there is also the question in the room how good the pilots trying to do system of the boeing plane and this is where a lot of concerns are coming from every pilot who was capable of fly the traditional seven forty seven also capable of flying this new plane and there are a lot of concerns to kind of the read a lot of things in the press from the pilots also concerned about the behavior of
11:23 am
this plane and i think we have to clear the situation and it must be guaranteed the safety of the passengers is first priority so it is a precaution now to keep these planes grounded until we know more is what you're saying missy yes on back what needs to change to make sure that these types of incidents don't happen again. i think we need a new models for such a foreign planes and we see there is some more information technology on board and computer more and more steering the planes and there are changes already more rep it seems less than in the past and we need this also that the pilots of this plane all this couple being the mostest of these machines and all solved is computer. right thomas yet some back the aviation court nater for the german government thank you very much for joining us. now to a new film the tells the story of a former german paratrooper and prisoner of war who became a film bowling hero in england after world war two that's
11:24 am
a trap man's talents for goalkeeping during prison break time eventually took him into manchester city's f.a. cup winning side in one nine hundred fifty six take a look as portrayed in the film back troutman was in the parachute division of the german army where he had won medals for hero ism after being captured towards the end of the second world war and sent to a british p.o.w. camp he was still a die hard nazi noles your hero you will be put to water troutman is portrayed by german actor david cross who is a self-confessed soccer fan and player the real truculence talent was noticed at the p.o.w. camp and he was taken on by a local side not easy considering the mood in britain play football league i'm sure . with this next year well we will not cannot be ready and or so i have a life worse. situation you know you know yes i've.
11:25 am
got to know what democracy is and changed his outlook on things but that didn't mean that he still didn't have to fight prejudice and sometimes pure hatred simply because he had been on the other side. the director mark millar had actually met the real bad trout money years ago when the idea for the film first came up. he told me how it happened but also how it was to be youngster back then hitler youth especially is a great in the middle about the brainwashing on this one and how he only came to his senses amid the horrors of the war when it was really too late if the focus was simply on survival even after being accepted by the local teams troutman had to face even more prejudice from the coaches daughter she blamed germans for taking her from the dance floor to air raid shelters. and that was you then start.
11:26 am
and in this case love really did conquer all the to eventually marry. then came troughton's biggest career coup being hired by first division side manchester city yet people first protested but eventually relented and gave a chance and that paid dividends the team went all the way to the f.a. cup final in one nine hundred fifty six and despite troutman literally breaking his neck in the game he stayed on the pitch and manchester city went on to win it three one also making top on a legit. and also ensured a terrible family tragedy but from that too he could move on. troutman earned many honors both in england and germany he passed away in two thousand and thirteen at age eighty nine but with this film his legacy could well live on.
