a deadly building collapse in nigeria it is still uncertain how many people including children were inside the. black boxes from the boeing seven thirty seven banks that crashed in to go to paris for analysis and new evidence prompts the u.s. to join a long list of countries to ground boeing's best selling ships. also coming out the boys and girls living under the shadow of what. i'd like to go out without someone kidnapping me so far and i don't know fighters to hold and no bombing. as the fighting in syria enters its ninth here we hear from those the u.n. says are paying the heaviest price children. play. i'm sunni so was god that's good to have you with us. more drama is expected in the
12:02 pm
british parliament today after lawmakers rejected a no deal with drawls from the e.u. voting last night paves the way for another vote today to delay britain's exit date beyond march twenty ninth then it is up to the e.u. to decide if it will grant an extension for the british prime minister this week has been a punishing one. another vote another defeat yes the right three to one the most the left two hundred seventy eight yeah. veterans of british politics say they can remember nothing like it threatens fee brio parliament wrestling back control from to resume a. thousand state provides a clear majority against leaving the house a deal however i repeat what i have said the five. to make matters wash the prime minister's voice like many in her party has disaster tarr several of her own ministers voted against her wishes the house was coming so
12:03 pm
. her alone time to go to a subsequent various eco the options before is the same as they always have been we could leave we could leave with the deal which this government is negotiation process to yes we could leave with the deal we have negotiated the subject to a second referendum but that there's risk no prexy it has all. opponents from all sides pounded the prime minister but signs that ultimatum may have rattled even the hardest line breaks a two years and how party will not without damaging her credibility secure extending out because if i think. you know you. know of a deal i brought up a hill in my breasts i didn't think of it like i know this is terribly technically for the kids and they're probably all fed up to the back teeth of the whole thing you know but it's really important because not only do we have a government in complete crisis but we also have
12:04 pm
a prime minister city even if you just to listen to part of a makes promises of the dispatch box which. piece to break this is a this is really really unacceptable. this morning's papers tell the story of a night of high drama threats and rebel. and want to be true reason the rolls the dice once more back my deal next week and with it a short extension to membership or to find you once more and risk losing breaks it all together. let's bring in our correspondent of a cell she's standing by for us in london with the latest hi barbara so theresa may we heard there in that report saying the options before us are the same that they have always been is that true what is actually on the table right now. that's one of teresa mayes favorite sentences you remember sumi nothing has changed that's what she lives by so what she has put on the table today in the house of parliament
12:05 pm
here behind us is to say we asked the e.u. for a short extension of up to three months and we will do it again next week the brits will stroll the agreement and assuming that is passed then we hope the e.u. is grantors the extension for technical reasons to get all the legislation in the process so that is her point of view this is called here and these three meaningful votes really because we have to remember this egremont this deal has been resoundingly defeated already twice two days ago was the last time bought by putting the gun against the head of the hard line breaks here is treason may now hopes to sort of change her fortune and push it through the house of parliament and at the moment problem and tear ins on both sides of opposition and the conservative party are still working up further amendments and there will be some asking for
12:06 pm
a longer extension to greece think breaks it to sort of go back to the basics and then maybe even some further variations we don't know yet i will come out during the day however this is a crucial day in westminster and chaos reigns in bricks of britain chaos indeed barbara with the resulting defeats that the prime minister. suffered in parliament can trust them a release still stay in power. good question there is some bricks that cheers who say that's a rumor from last night if she promises to step down more or less immediately we will vote for the deal for the withdrawal agreement that hasn't yet been confirmed but they talk a lot when the day is long but treason may under normal circumstances would have had to step down three times over these are not normal times and she is clinging on and pushing and pushing and nobody really at the moment is ready to shoot her down
12:07 pm
and replace or and barbara just briefly if you can what are we expecting then for the vote later today. there is no telling there's no telling what the mood of the house is there's no telling where the majorities might fall so we have to wait to the crossed party groups will put on the table and there might be another surprise like we had last night and the day before and the night before so join the fun and games in britain will go on in westminster here particularly and all observers nobody dares at the moment to somehow come out with the slightest sort of look ahead or the slightest type of prophecy all is up for grabs here in the british parliament all right barbara vale following the fun and games for us there in london thank you very much. but we cannot speak to david mcallister from chancellor merkel's conservative c.d.u. party he is a member of the european parliament and he joins us from strasburg mr mcallister
12:08 pm
thank you very much for joining us first off we should say that you are a german m.e.p. but you are also half scottish witnessing the chaos of the last few days in the british parliament i think it's safe to say it is an precedented what do you make of it. well this is all unprecedented perhaps it's even unbelievable grotesque or bizarre but anyhow we take note of all the decisions in the house of commons the one on tuesday evening the one yesterday evening and now we're waiting for the next decision today and then we will make up of wind one thing is clear if you are determined to leave the european union that are two options you either leave the european union on the basis of a withdrawal agreement or you leave the european union without an agreement these are the two options and this is what the house of commons will have to decide we negotiated the withdrawal agreement eighteen months with the u.k. government and that the prime minister will have
12:09 pm
a further attempt to get it through the house of commons she should go for it but in the meantime we will just wait and drink a cup of english tea mr mcallister he sound a little bit exasperated i think it's safe to say that there are some others there in strasbourg who share that feeling donal to president of the european council has said today that he will let peel for a long extension for the u.k. to rethink its banks and strategy build some consensus and maybe rethink breaks entirely what do you think of that do you think agree with that initiative. if you u.k. asked to extend the article fifty talks we will then have a closer look at this request it will have to be credible on the one hand and convincing on the other hand then you have to differentiate between a short extension until the european elections from my point of view the latest date would be the twenty second of me if time is required to get the deal through
12:10 pm
the house of commons and in the end we get an orderly breaks it organized i think the e.u. twenty seven member states would be willing to accept this but if a longer extension is asked for way beyond the european elections when we need a fundamentally different political attitude in london then we will really have to sit down and see how we can explain to not only the members of european parliament to all people involved why the u.k. should remain part of the european union much longer than european elections and of course there's also the alternative that the u.k. could revoke the article fifty procedure mr mcallister does the e.u. have to take any blame for the chaos that we're seeing in london and he was brussels i too tough on the u.k. in negotiating this deal essentially creating a deal that the british parliament could not support. no i don't believe so we didn't ask for this british withdrawal it was a u.k.
12:11 pm
decision we negotiated the withdrawal agreement for one and a half years both sides had to make compromises difficult compromises not only for the british side also for us and we had this withdrawal agreement ready since november and since we are waiting for the u.k. side to move we accepted all the british red lines but two points are really important for us the one is we need to maintain the stability and the peace in northern ireland and the other point is that we have to protect the integrity of our single market and beyond that we are ready to accept all compromises and the u.k. government was ready to sign the withdrawal agreement but it's obviously the house of commons which is not capable of finding a majority decision but if we don't find any kind of support for the withdrawal agreement then in the end we will be heading for the scenario nobody really wants
12:12 pm
and no deal breaks it and that would be the worst outcome of all possible alternatives for a given macallister member of the european parliament joining us from strasburg thank you very much. now to some other stories making news around the world algeria has new prime minister new ready and baduy has said he will form a government early next week that will help support a political transition in the country but do it took over on monday after his predecessor resigned algeria remains on edge after weeks of mass protests against the president i feel as he's with a flick of. hungary's prime minister viktor orban has asked conservative european leaders to reconsider their proposal to expel his feet as party from their conservative group the european people's party in a letter or about apologize for offending members of the group with anti e.u. and anti immigrant billboards but he said he would not change his political position. in nigeria emergency workers have halted their efforts to rescue people

12:15 pm
a halt because rescue teams are saying they do not expect to find more people below of this debris they're saying they have meticulously combed through the entire area and they will not find more people they say what you can see here behind me is actually a cleanup operation but that has also come to a stop right now because they are residents of this building what trying to gather their personal belongings from this house that was not just a school building but also residential building you know if you look over there you see a lot of security but you also see residents you also see people who are actually angry the anger because they say that this collapse of this building could have been prevented if make plans would have been carried out properly and if you suspect since would have been done properly. funny reporting there you're watching the news still to come on the program growing up in syria as we hear about the damage done to drink the years that these kids can never get. but first the black boxes recovered from

12:18 pm
airborne. but in congress growing support for a ban bridge the party divide. every one of these planes should be grounded right away. they are accidents waiting to happen the grounding of the plane has please many passenger safety advocates in the u.s. but it's another blow for boeing and one from which the aerospace giant may take a while to fully recover. u.s. backed forces say they have advanced further into the last bits of territory under control of a so-called islamic state footage released by kurdish fighters purportedly shows fighting for the enclave of those a group of militia have said the battle for the area is nearly over but for many nighest fighters are putting up stiff resistance now this comes as dozens of countries have gathered in brussels for a donor conference on syria a chaired by the e.u. and un it aims to secure billions in funding for victims of the conflict now as the war in syria enters its ninth year unicef says two thousand and eighteen was the

12:20 pm
a bomb fell close by and i got hit on the arm. i never i'm afraid of blood and i'm afraid to see a dead body. or somebody who's been beheaded or somebody who's been shot dead with bullets that's what i'm afraid of. just after we got on the truck a plane fired on us yeah you could also of course do that but suddenly everything was burning the blood and everything was black around us. can the two of my brothers died in the civil war part of the two days before we left a lot of planes came and bombed the mosque they came and went and they fired rockets and lots of people died. all around the route were burned out cars and there was an explosion. my brother suffered minor shrapnel wounds. in aleppo we couldn't sleep at night because of the
12:21 pm
air raids. that's why we fled you know. why. i'd like to be alone and have nice things and i'd like to go out without someone kidnapping me beforehand i don't have no fighters before and no bombing couldn't. head back to. the mess that's the only thing i want is to see my friends again and to go back to my old school. every morning when i see the turkish kids going to school happy and i think why aren't we allowed to do that. for the. cameo if an organization came and took me to study i would go with them maybe they
12:22 pm

12:23 pm
do you help them. so what we see in addition to the lifesaving neet that isn't a lot of meat a lot of support me get for psychosocial interventions and prejudice and psychosocial is really better how we deal with what they've experience for our water troll moss considered to gain strength from their own resilience and be able to freeze life d.d.i. for the normal way and that will allow them to be able to go back to normal education so they get up to the educational level that they need to go back to school but osage go back to having the hope for the future and the stock and rebuilding l.x. . how much does that trauma affect them also the violence and in some cases loss. well all things they've experienced is expecting them a lot we see a lot of children being aggressive something that we've drawn from our social engagement to refer to p.s. so it has a very much nashik on the good news is that this doesn't have to be
12:24 pm
a permanent state this can be overcome and assume that it took psychosocial interventionists offer to get into that that is the better differs yells out soon and able to be at resilient again and be strengthened in what they need to do finish each year and go back to normal education and the war is entering its ninth year or so these are kids who in part have missed that many years of school and also haven't had access to basic health care for example what does the international community need to do to address this. well how so many years of conflict is there's no simple answer there's a multiple of needs and what we plead for just one child is a recognition of the importance of touch social interventions and education right at the beginning and not at a later stage sciri what needs to be done is this helping children to overcome what they've experienced and making sure that this is possible to go back to school with us all to do the same that in the previous item as well kerry asking for years not
