parliament is set to vote again today twice rejected for exit plan it's a last ditch effort to arrange the country's orderly withdrawal from the e.u. . and two weeks since cycling smashed into southern africa dire conditions in mozambique half a million people are homeless and a cholera outbreak is getting worse. also in the south tower from t.v. star to political powerhouse a ukrainian comedian who plays a blue collar president on t.v. is leading in the presidential polls against kiev's political elite. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us and national memorial service has been held in christ church new zealand to remember the fifty people. killed in two

mosque attacks two weeks ago thousands stood in silence as the names of the victims were read out loud new zealand prime minister just send attended the ceremony joined by representatives of governments from around the world she spoke out against the anti muslim and anti immigrant page that motivated the alleged killer the event took place near the newer mosque where the majority of victims were shot to death during friday prayers on march fifteenth here's what some of those attending said after the service there is a very visible. pushback on racism and i think that is what we hopefully continue to live in a peaceful and. hopefully we can take. the silver lining will be the case and. i'm grateful to be here until it's one of these people's lives you know i do there's only one message peace peace to the new zealand and all of what. it is

a message which is just. from this we learn that the hate is so small. and obvious so much. i might think we've become a more inclusive society. that's. i mean. thinking keef sister when they were just in iran he's different. our correspondent samantha early is in christ church and joins us now from there some mental and emotional memorial service people from around the world were there tell us more about. this well we're at the world was just a very close we had a memorial service was held to tens of thousands of people and frankly as you see the saving and silence is the names of the victims were read out of the sivits was very somber and quite focused as well on these ilands to this is safe with a lot of representation from. the indigenous community as well which has felt quite

a special affinity with the muslim community in the past two weeks we've been hearing some emotional statements from the survivors of this attack let's listen to one of them who says he has forgiven his attacker. but only here to go on to some suffering is life. some traumatic thing happened to him and he could not process where he's suffering. construct. their choice i don't support do that on which i did the same time i can not deny the fact that he's my human. e.g. human being is my brother that is moises to this is my feet and this is what i love has to be. an extraordinary expression of human compassion there from one of the survivors but despite their best efforts to cope

things in christ church in new zealand as a whole will never really be the same after this well they. know it's a one of the major media organizations here titled the coverage of this the end of our innocence and that is really what it feels like quite a lot of people it's really you must remember we are not used to seeing the place on the streets and normally our police are on but we've been on high security it's a little fits who wakes up and a lot of people as well piss millia questioning their own motivations there are prejudiced is that they might have had and really talking about what needs to be done on an individual level as well as a community level who really interests prices and hatred and so in a five year. beyond memorial services. is new zealand coming to

terms with the aftermath of this attack. well today's memorial about exactly two weeks since the shootings was really seem to be masking a turning point between the initial response and the ongoing recovery and the challenge and some of the things we can be expected to hear more about in the few weeks calls for every just stare of hate crimes in new zealand we speaking to hear more about tough gun legislation also accountability for social media companies for destructive content and also be looking closely to having a royal commission of inquiry actually into what could have been done about still storage fees sysiphus says. investigate is how possibly this attack might have been able to have been prevented all these things are going to be looked at very hard over the past few weeks so some next steps there samantha thank you very much.

earlier there in christ church new zealand. now to some of the other stories making headlines around the world today a prominent philippine journalist known to be a critic of president. has been arrested again this time over an alleged investment violation maria teresa who heads the online news site rappler was detained at manila's international airport faces a string of charges she says she's being targeted for her work. venezuela's main opposition leader and self declared interim president has been barred from public office for fifteen years the country's auditor cited auditor general cited the regularity in his finances has dismissed the announcement he accuses incumbent nicolas maduro of rigging last year's election and has the backing of the u.s.

and dozens of other countries. brazil's president. has attended a ceremony marking the anniversary of the coup that resulted in twenty one years of military rule and the deaths of hundreds of people families of the victims earlier criticized the poor right leaders decision to reinstate the commemorations of the coup which had been abolished by former leader. now today was the day that britain was a regionally scheduled to leave the european union but after two years of negotiations the braggs a process remains paralyzed the patrol agreement that prime minister theresa may reached with the e.u. has been twice rejected by british lawmakers parliament will vote on that deal again today if it doesn't pass this time the u.k. may end up leaving the e.u. without a deal and that's a prospect that few people in britain or anywhere else want to see. friday was

supposed to be briggs the day before a deadline extension agreed last week march twenty ninth was the date that the u.k. was meant to break off from the european union instead the british parliament will vote for a third time on the brags that deal negotiated by prime minister to resign may with a deal on the twenty second at this time she is asking parliament to vote just on the withdrawal agreement not the future relationship with the e.u. it's a split many members of parliament have already rejected on principle. what the prime minister's tried to do is do something that she did not do on the fourteenth of january and that is separate. from the political declaration from the future rangers when you cannot separate them because otherwise you move into a blindfold. there's no way out of it once you've signed it and gone into it may says she will resign there for a deal goes through but there's a slim chance of that with the opposition labor party as well as many of may's

conservative allies saying they won't support it do you think it's ok. that lawmakers intend to continue voting on alternative plans on monday but the path forward is unclear the u.k. will crash out of the e.u. on april twelfth if it does not approve may's deal or somehow secure another extension from that you. meanwhile the other european member states are preparing for a no deal bragg's it. france's euro tunnel has spent fifteen million euros on new infrastructure the company operates the tunnel between the u.k. and france without a deal this can become the site of a chaotic checkpoint in just under two weeks. the british parliament has voted firmly against crashing out of the u. a large majority of the british people are also against that scenario which is becoming increasingly likely by the day. rival protests have kept a regular presence at the house of commons with people on both sides bewildered by

the gridlock gripping their government. let's cross over to our correspondent in london big it must has been following this story from the beginning a bigot here we are today march twenty ninth it was the day that the u.k. was scheduled to leave the e.u. by its own request can you explain in a nutshell why that's not happening. well the technical explanation is that reason may has negotiated with the here of the in union the tams of the u.k.'s exit and also the political declination about what this government hopes to achieve in the future with the european union but she has not managed to get this deal through the houses of parliament there are so many opposing views on brett said here in parliament that she just hasn't got on her deal three no many critics have to say she should have read the same sort out paula

men's views before she negotiated with the european union and think about whether there would be a chance of getting through parliament because it was clear that parliament would have to approve it but now there we are may has this deal with the european union it was difficult enough to achieve but now she's facing all sorts of hoddle to here and one more it's have but it doesn't look very good ok a deeply conflicted parliament here we are in. in the u.k. parliament is voting once again all the breaks that deal they've already rejected twice will it pass this time. it really doesn't look very good she doesn't have the numbers all for a nine m.p.'s there are many in the conservative party and also her ally the northern irish unionist party who fear that for the future the u.k. would still be tied to closely to the european union and this is why they don't

want to accept the deal now labor the opposition party hoping that they get more influence and shaping the future relationship to hoping for a general election they're hoping to summer influence the brics a deal also very unlikely to posit this time so it seems that everyone here has really different ideas of the future of the country over the brics it's that they would like we've caught up with know about the right can the chairman of the german foreign affairs committee to get his view on this chaos. of course it's not up to me as a german politician and parliamentarian to give advice is what could be a good way my view has always been clear i consider breaks it it is sussed i'm. and even more so given the job political developments and upheaval unraveling so europe has to stay and stick together and not fall apart in order to remain relevant and apart from that given the paralysis of the institutions and the

system i would say you have there is only one one approach to recon side and come to a conclusion and this means to give it back to the people who started this process what took the decision but now nearly three years later it's much clearer what bracks it really means and they should say do you really want that what you know no it is about all do you prefer to rethink and to remain is there maybe every german wish that in the end bracks it will not happen i there is a german wish it's not only a german wish. because we well you the british membership in the european union we know the valuable contribution of britain to the european union perhaps germany even more than others do so our wishes clear but our respect is also clear it's up

to the british people or britain to this country to decide about its own future. in this country people are still fighting to shape the future here behind me old hear a pin flags a lot of people who are still also fighting for a second referendum fighting for its rees's to reason may steal or any deal that's being agreed in parliament and also the european union to put to port before the people again for another referendum for another vote so you're saying very good that it's unlikely that this deal will pass today that your you say it will probably be rejected a third time given that what's going to happen next. that's the million dollar question we know that the process is going to be happening again next week there is a second round of the so-called indicative varies which is m.p.'s amongst themselves trying to find some sort of consensus some alternative to

a series i made may's deal that they wanted then move forward if they do find one breck's it's an area that they can unite behind they would most likely have to ask the e.u. for another extension of the withdrawal period of this exit date so this is one thing that's going to happen next week if there is no agreement whatsoever we know that on the twelfth of april britain will just leave the european union and there is this whoreson area for many here in the u.k. for business is amongst them that then there will be no deal and britain will just crash out without any provision for the future to get less in london thank you so much. you're watching v.w. news still to come nowhere to live but the road song two weeks after the cyclists

hit mozambique we look at the tired conditions for people left homeless by the storm. a turkish court has dismissed a case against investigative journalist and d.-w. contributor palin ok was being sued for defamation by the turkish finance minister after reporting allegations connecting the politician to offshore tax havens her investigation was made possible by the leaked documents known as the paradise papers or his court case was dismissed for exceeding turkish statute of limitations mauls. pending cat is used to court appearances by now. she's been through two criminal trials her husband and father by his side by side court on thursday the family was relieved. to sit in the cool so i'm happy about this verdict but it's bittersweet now clearly they see the same judge sentenced me to

more than thirteen months in jail. when today's verdict was announced the judge said unfortunately i have to drop the charges and she looked at mr lawyer as apologetically. that says a lot about the current state of the judiciary in this country. one cares encounter with the turkish justice system began after she joined the international network of journalists investigating the so-called paradise papers. leaked documents detailing the use of tax havens feith thousands of individuals and companies. in care found alleged ties to turkish finance minister by record and his brother and to the family of four much turkish prime minister. when home care published her findings in

turkish newspaper chum her yet both politicians sued her for defamation the case has now been dropped on a technicality but in the year in case you care could still be facing more than thirteen months in prison. now on this subject. a journalist has never been sentenced to prison for publishing about the paradise papers anywhere in the world . this only happens in turkey instead elsewhere the authorities have actually taken some action against these tax havens. and. the case has once again raised questions about media freedoms in taki. britain kat is determined to continue reporting as she awaits the results of her appeal. for it has been two weeks in cycle and it dies smashed into mozambique's coast more

than seven hundred people have been reported dead so far making it one of the most devastating storms in the southern hemisphere now an outbreak of water borne diseases threatens to aggravate the already dire conditions facing the millions who survived aid organizations are warning about the dangers of a cholera epidemic government announced that the number of cases has now risen to almost one hundred forty. six nation campaign is currently being rolled out in the affected areas. thousands of people in the mozambican problems of many were left homeless due to cycling. they'd be forced to live at the side of the road. all the houses of collapsed everything we had is gone we have no way to live with our children so we decided to campaign the emergency shelters are overflowing. forty thousand people need help in the province of

money alone the second worst hit area of mozambique. and those who have fled their homes face hunger unless they can pay inflated prices authorities have condemned anyone trying to turn the tragedy into a business opportunity and called on people to help each other. we call on all mozambique to show solidarity to one another this cannot be a moment where fellow country men take advantage of each other worsening the suffering of our people here in the province. so we're asking traders and bera exactly what we asked of their colleagues in q mile. and across the entire province . but let's unite and be sensitive towards the situation of citizens in. their suffering they have lost everything and they need our help. the people here have little choice

but to wait until further help arrives. ukraine goes to the polls on sunday to choose a new president as the first national vote since two thousand and fourteen when the revolution forced pro russian leader viktor yushchenko which from power here are the three main contenders in sunday's vote first we've got the incumbent petro poroshenko he's pro european but he's been criticized for failing to implement reforms and fight corruption another familiar face yulia timoshenko she is a two time prime minister she is also pro europe and was part of the two thousand and four orange revolution against corruption but the person who could turn ukrainian politics upside down is this man although to me he's a comedian and actor famous for playing the president in a popular t.v. show and according to opinion polls he's got

a good chance of becoming president for real. good morning mr president he's. an ordinary man taken by surprise catapulted into the top job by a string of coincidences that's the story of the ukrainian servant of the people now its lead he is poised to become ukraine's president the second time and this time it could be through real polls consistently put him ahead of both incumbent president petro poroshenko and ex prime minister yulia timoshenko and there's the rub where both his closest rivals have been at the forefront of ukrainian politics for decades. blank page he's never previously been involved in politics let alone held elected office but in a country struggling with massive corruption and seemingly. in the east many are

desperate for fresh faces. and i'm running for president. i'm challenging the elites on their own turf that's why they're tearing into me calling me a clown yes i'm a clown i'm proud of that. selenski is a candidate unlike any other and he's refusing to play by the normal rules of campaigning there are no rallies and very few interviews selenski is running a campaign that's almost all online and he's using social media to talk his potential supporters directly the central message transparency breaking with the kind of politics that has made ukraine one of europe's most corrupt and poorest nations selenski called it becoming president but stay and. he says he doesn't want to make promises he can't keep on the really big questions he says he'll let the people decide in referendums but is it enough to donald trump and it.

will. be the next show business outsider to shake up his country's politics. creating a really popular political myth in ukraine the theory goes that only an outsider can defeat the existing political system on his own i doubt he'll succeed. but how much of an outsider is really his critics argue that in reality he's anything but launching a campaign calling him a puppet of the oligarch. whose channels have made selenski famous. he is one of ukraine's richest men and an arch enemy of president petro poroshenko. selenski denies there's anything untoward about their relationship but the questions remain in servant of the people. plays a president who throws protocol out of the window much to the delight of the crowd . who within weeks his enemies begin to sabotage his

plans preparing for his impeachment. he would do in real life he's anything but clear but for now it looks like. a new season unfolds this time on the political stage and without the script for we show you some footage of a hair raising incident in southern turkey a c.c.t.v. camera captured these images of some men battling gusty winds to keep hold of a large umbrella before one of them was lifted right off the ground but market worker was hoisted over three metres into the air before jumping to safety he escaped with a minor ankle injury. extraordinary visions of mary poppins there you're watching to w. news still to come trade negotiations between the u.s. and china will resume in beijing today and markets are optimistic asian shares
