this is g.w. news live from berlin a slim majority of britain's voted two years ago to leave the e.u. parliament votes today on whether it will be a no deal breaks it lawmakers have firmly rejected both deals prime minister theresa may reached with the e.u. and with the clock running out they're no closer to agreeing on how or if briggs it should be done. also coming up he was trusted to guide and protect children instead one of the catholic church's most senior clergyman will go to prison for sexually abusing choir boys in australia. in

a deal that you exclusive our india correspondent talks to the father of our kashmiri suicide bombers who brought india and pakistan to the brink of war. also coming up football turns a nazi soldier into a british hero a new film tells the true story of a former german terra trooper and prisoner of war who became a football star in britain after world war two. i'm sumi so much going to thank you for joining us. britain's parliament is set to vote due to vote today on whether to crash out of the european union without a deal on a future relationship if they were jack to no deal breck said it is possible they will want to delay withdrawal which is little more than two weeks away but the e.u. says there will be no extension without some clarity about the u.k.'s intentions either way prime minister teresa mayes breaks that strategy lies in tatters.

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 because i profoundly the decision that this house has taken tonight i continue to believe that by far the best outcome is the united kingdom leaves the european union and orderly fashion with the. lawmakers were frustrated that we may have 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 her maybe it's time instead we had

a general election and the people of being true to their government should pay now you came 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 hard line brick city is a. 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 divided as their politicians with just sixteen days to go to the break the deadline no deal could be just around the corner. so where do things go from here let's bring in our correspondents back at nasa standing by in london and knox hoffman is in stratford good to see you both again let's start with you president was very clear they did not want to rescind may's deal we are expecting

a vote later today on whether there should be a no deal for. i said what can we expect there. is interesting when we have spoken to many in peace in the course of the morning after this very night and across the political divide safe in saying it's really a chaos and there is just you know no clarity we don't know where we're going from here and one says well anybody who says they know what's going to happen he or she is clearly lying so we know that's a lot of parliamentarians want to avoid what if for many is a horror scenario that the u.k. leaves the european union in just two weeks time without any provision any clarity of what the future is so-called no deal bragg's it and that's what is expected that many of them are going to vote against later on tonight and then there is another vote if that goes through those another vote expected tomorrow and that would be

about a possible extension of the brics a process so not at the end of march but at some point in the future. max we heard there that have been it was saying most lawmakers in london seem to want to avoid a no deal brags that that is something we have heard e.u. leaders say as well if that would also be a horse scenario but at this point amid all of this chaos would it be that terrible for the e.u. . well the problem with the u.k. is that many lawmakers here in stars burge have you parliamentarians that are at the plenary session is that the britons of always been very clear what they don't want so in this case it would be they don't want no deal bragg's it but never really clear on what they actually want and extension is something that many lawmakers here are rather sympathetic towards but this sympathy is waning because they say in order to extend this article fifty period which is the delaying the

brags that we need clarification we need motivation we need to understand why there should be an extension otherwise we might just end up at the same place we are right now and month vivo was the head of the european people's party and a possible future head of the e.u. commission talked to me earlier just to remind us what's at stake. legally uncertainties always supposed him as an artist poking speaking about millions of people who have no certainty about the living conditions that's why it is that it is a best case scenario and and again be running in this direction mo than ever before and and the key question is now we have the decision on the prolongation obviously on the table and i will not support any kind of prolongation if we get a clarification from the petition site will to want to achieve because said it's a basic problem they have no much routine favor of anything they only have only my treaties against it. the austrian chances of us and cool it's also said

something about a possible extension today and he was more benign saying of course we want to avoid a no deal scenario and he imagined the leaders of the member states to be of the same opinion but you seem a lot of different opinions on this and no clarity max we did hear month of may but there say that uncertainty is always the worst case scenario how worried are you readers that uncertainty that we're seeing in the u.k. right now well affect the rest of europe on questions like trade and travel. well there's a lot of worry that first of all it might hijack the political process leading up to the elections that take place in may the e.u. elections and politicians here want to talk about climate change about migration they don't want to talk about drugs anymore rags it any more now on the business side it's a different story many businesses i would say probably all serious businesses have already decided quite some time ago that they will not leave their businesses in

the u.k. if they are dependent on what's going to happen politically so they look for alternatives they try to to make sure that their businesses are safe even if there is no deal breaks it's a we've been hearing from german business leaders for example all right we don't really care anymore let it be a no deal brags and all we want is this to be over with by the way and opinion i've heard expressed by politicians as well i say to sum it up you know everybody still wants to avoid it no deal breaks it but it doesn't seem as horrific as it seemed a couple of months earlier berkut what is the picture there in london then what are business and industry saying how bad what a no deal brags it baby. well we've had in particular the car industry really voicing their concerns they say it's a really seismic shift and hundreds of thousands of jobs would be imperiled the government has today announced that if there is a no deal gregg said they will lower import tariffs in order to protect among all

of us the car industry however the car industry also says another statement that this would not resolve the problem so for them it's really a dire situation we had the head of the biggest business lobby group the c.b.i. we heard her saying that this is no way to run a government and they really business really imploring on parliamentarians to come together to find some way forward to come to a solution across the party devoid however from speaking to parliamentarians this morning i really can see that there is a way forward because people are really entrenched in their views not just ben piece by the way but also people in the country so some people want to just leave at any cost and for the stay a really hoping that they can somehow breck's it and the next weeks will be about who's getting the upper hand our correspondent tracking the very latest developments on bragg's at forest park at mass in london max huffman in strasbourg

thank you both of. now to some other stories making headlines around the world this news just coming into us a building containing a school has collapsed in nigeria's commercial capital of lagos an emergency agency spokesman has just shared that information local media are reporting that many people may be trapped or injured or rescue crews are on the scene and we'll have more on this breaking news story as it comes in to us. i mean maher has handed over to the u.s. a box of remains believed to be of american airmen lost in world war two it is the first time an american military aircraft has been to me and mar in such a mission they were maids are now set for identification. the u.s. justice department has charged fifty mostly wealthy parents with fraud after they cheated to get their children into elite american universities including gail stanford and georgetown those charges include c.e.o.'s of major companies and the

hollywood actresses felicity huffman and lori loughlin they allegedly they allegedly conspired to falsify records and bribed college officials to influence the admissions process. now an australian court to sentence cardinal george pell 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 more on this story hi martin 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 of the ride to these pope in particular allowed him to return drugs for a leo to france charges those were the terms in which it was followed by ben i mean this as you said is the most in your view you're in the vatican in the right to

hire t. and it's also an extremely extremely visible for your. sort of church politics goes to say that there's actually a very significant case what's important to know 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 you can trash registered as a sex offender for the rest of his life. tells case it's 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 a six month suspended sentence and in february another blow for the church the pope

defrocked former u.s. cardinal theodore mccarrick he had helped draft u.s. church policy against abuse in the early two thousand but mccarrick was himself later found guilty of molestation in two thousand and eighteen chilean bishop han barrios and his entire church leadership resigned police are investigating hundreds of abuse claims in chile along with a major cover up. the case of pope francis harvey 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 it's under great pressure to address the clergy abuse issue last month he promised that abuses would be brought to justice but the scandals have already cost 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 pope 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 have been very vocal over that about the existence of the vatican bank . and when the pope i mean when friends is going 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 corners well bo was somebody that within the context of essentially. got the lead 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 gave us a bit of a surprise when the pope actually allowed him to first testify in front of us are now authorities from rome he was like this into the gritty knowledge to appear on

a t.v. line which would sit me or would would member and i believe that at the very same time it was remarkable actually to essentially deliver him to 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 move my sense is that they're being major changes and i mean in the last couple of weeks we have essentially three very big stories we have my character who was different perhaps belatedly i mean he's leaving you know 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 and seven or so these are very big. gestures some of them but at the very same time the fact that we are

beginning to see justice investigating charge 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. your watching d.w. news still to come we take a look at a new film tracing the rise of a former nazi paratrooper to football stardom in britain. 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 under way in the indian administered part since one nine hundred eighty nine india accuses pakistan of supporting militant groups their islamic bought denies that charge in a d.w.i.

exclusive our correspondent sonia found the car visited the family of the suicide bomber. this is how some guard remembers the son before he disappeared last year last month a car packed with explosives rammed a convoy of indian pattern military troops killing more than forty just sort of. the blast just a few miles from here shook the family's home. then received news that the suicide bomber had been this own son i survived and i know we were shocked we didn't think he could ever do something like this again one hundred three everyone started crying. who can take pride in this so many people have died in. the dark family says other joined mass protests in two thousand and sixteen. he was injured and bedridden for months he lost a year of college i don't know why does my son went to help a protester who was hit by

armed insurgency against indian rule first began here in one thousand nine hundred ninety. the fos mall and now authorities say it's increasingly drawing local recruits like other dark they come from villages like this one in the southern part of the kashmir valley considered a hotbed of militancy. official figures 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. in recent years the rise of the hindu nationalist b.g.p. party and the tough approach to the region has also still fears the predominantly muslim body was done for independence from what they see as oppressive. at the district court in srinagar the capital of indian administered kashmir i give

all credit to the legal system in the judiciary lawyer defense teenagers arrested for protesting or providing logistical support for alleged militants. their basic rights she says on to protect it fuelling resentment and anger runs a person is arrested he is to be explained why he is arrested he has to be your access to his family members he used to be given access to the legal aid all these things are denied to him he's kept in police station for days together for months together without any remodelled without producing them to. for a magistrate when they see these things why this why why i am not being treated as a normal person. today the city of st ago has shut down after a strike by separatist groups. it's an all too common sight in the valley. for young people here it's almost impossible to have a normal life and what is her duty certainly missed lessons when schools closed

down because of the strikes are mothers worry we might get hit by a bullet if we go out of. everyone i can assure you i believe one has this anger that they are not the movements of the movement or hindu. they cannot go. with india and pakistan on high alert followed the recent tensions people in indian controlled kashmir are bracing for more protests strikes and by the us. a conflict that has already been smoldering the dickies. aircraft maker boeing and the us 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 that brand new seven thirty seven that crashed just minutes after taking off ethiopian airlines says the flight recorders will be sent abroad for

salah study on monday andrew bird sophie mino one of the most fearsome attacks in europe one was that we have to defend well and balance attack with defense because if you let one of the three forwards out of your sight it could be over and done his first four but coverts has weapons of his own up front. thomas millar responded to being dropped from the germany team with a virtual performance on the weekend and rob eleven dubs he is back to his ruthless best but despite the threats you can club things liverpool's best chance is to make it a matter of attack this is attack that's the first thing to do to create a situation where it's really an open game and if you have that they have a good chance if you have a good chance we should try to use it to coaches with different outlooks and the time with all to play for in munich the stage is set for a champions league classic. now to a new film that tells a story of

a former and former german paratrooper in prisoner of war who became a football hero in england after world war two back to tough man's talent for goalkeeping during prison break time eventually led him to manchester city's f.a. cup winning team in one nine hundred fifty six take a look. as portrayed in the film beth 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. trautman is portrayed by german actor davi 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 be to go. with this name so while we will not cannot be studied. the

situation in aga. troutman soon 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 marcus miller had actually met the real bad troutman years ago when the idea for the film first came up. he told me how it happened but also how it was to be a youngster back then in the hitler youth. especially as a great source of abused in the mid staffs and about the brainwashing on this and how he only came to his senses amid the horrors of the war vias he thought when it was really too late if when the in the focus was simply on survival even after being accepted by the local teams trudged on had to face even more prejudice from the coach's daughter when she blamed germans for taking her from the dance floor to air raid shelters. and drop that dance with youth and start on some benefit.

and in this case love really did conquer all the to eventually marry. then came trout months 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 truck on a legit. 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.
