this is coming to you live from berlin the latest bump of the long road to break the e.u. proposes a flexible twelve months to leave for the u.k. to leave the block the two reason me wants it sooner might be soon to tell us yet we get the news both from london and drossos also coming up militia troops have been stopped on the outskirts of the libyan capital tripoli the u.n. secretary general tries to avoid trinidad civil war as a regional warlord to press to drive off the internationally backed government. and

a rebuke for president in turkey as local elections we report from istanbul where recount is on to reach decide where the edge wrong spotting has lost its twenty five year old grip on power in the city. plus the biggest game in german football for years by an take on dortmund this weekend in what could be a blue streak the title decider we hear from both coaches and a sports car despondent about the match which every forty four shot in the country is talking about. unavailable milk and to you i'm a myth that shima british prime minister to resign may has asked the e.u. for yet another extension to brag said saying the u.k. needs more time to avoid leaving the block without a deal in a letter to the european council president. me is asking for the bricks

a deadline to be delayed until june thirtieth she said she hoped to get britain out of the e.u. before the european parliamentary elections in may if that's not possible london will make preparations to take part and the british parliament is still deadlocked over the. that me secured with the euro. though for more on this i'm joined from london by correspondent sean of pots and from brussels we have teri schultz welcome to both of you let me start with you charlotte briggs it is heading for yet another delay what exactly is terrorism me asking for this time and why. so theresa may want a strategy here asking the european union for another extension until june thirtieth and her strategy being the ongoing negotiations with the government and the labor party they are hoping to find across party consensus here some common

ground on how to move on with this break that process and if those talks were to fail she is saying in that letter then she would go back to parliament and hold so-called indicative votes let parliament decide on the way forward and find a path forward in that regard so she's asking for that extension until june thirtieth but with the option if the withdrawal agreement is passed to leave the european union so the u.k. wouldn't have to hold european elections on in may so she's laying out a strategy there but she's not presenting the solution and the question is whether the e.u. will grant that extension on those grounds exactly tell you turning to you in brussels not all twenty seven members of the e.u. have to approve the extension and we're already hearing conflicting comments with countries like france the netherlands and germany not entirely convinced by.

well if anyone thinks that this is all going to be wrapped up in the next six weeks i think people will look at them like they're crazy because we've been waiting and waiting and waiting in brussels for this to be finalized and we're still waiting so i think that there's a lot of skepticism among the reason mase counterparts the e.u. leaders and yes we have heard on different ends of the spectrum we've heard from france saying that she shouldn't be guaranteed an extension at all and you hear from others including you know european council leaders that she should be given much more time but this issue of the elections is very very complicated nobody wants to see. british lawmakers running for positions that they then would they can't immediately there's a tenth of the seats in the european parliament are held by the u.k. right now so that would leave a huge gap if you make decisions with these people and then they leave but the only thing everyone is on the same page about at the moment is that a hard breck's it is very bad for both sides and so despite their positioning ahead

of meetings like the summit next week that is something that everyone does agree on and to which everyone will work their hardest to avoid so shocked as we can of the european election is a huge complications due to take place in britain on the twenty may give in the book the conservatives and the opposition labor party has so hopelessly divided on briggs how distilleries m a plan to navigate decision. well now the u.k. if that extension is granted has to put legislation in place to hold those european elections and the reactions on this have been extremely divided here in london today so you have those on the remainer site that are hoping now for a softer bricks that a second referendum maybe and the european elections they say could get could give some indications for that but you also have the hardliners in the tory parties that have that would be perfectly happy to leave without a deal on april twelfth now to have a chaotic breakfast and then fine. only get this over with and with from those hard

liners for example. leaving the bricks of party that he wants to stand in the european elections to have some kind of protest vote you have heard from other hardliners saying we are going to make life extremely difficult for the european union if we were to hold these european elections so extremely divided on that and on the streets here in london if you talk to people they are saying it's very frustrating that we're going to see yet another extension and process dragging on we just want to get on with it in fact talking about dragging on terri don't have. the bill extension of one year as one official. all can tell us about that. that's right i read it and i said there's one thing everybody agrees on that a hard race that would be bad for both sides but we could also agree on the fact that this is very tiring exhausting and frustrating to keep having these

discussions about extensions for treason a to have to come back again to go back to parliament to have indicative votes meaningful votes everyone is tired of this process so that's where donald has used suggestion a flex tension he says let's give them a year let's give them until april twenty twenty because that would mean they don't have to try to wrap this up quickly there's less chance that we will do this chaotically we can sort of be more methodical about it even though we've already had two years to get to this point so there's no sign yet that everyone would agree to that that all the other twenty seven e.u. leaders would agree to that either again the elections is a huge part of this do you really want british n.e.p. is in place for one year who are then making decisions on the budget making decisions on programs if you have a lot of ukip representatives elected they have threatened to make life very difficult for brussels so there is going to be a lot of a lot of different opinion also about this flex tension and one european council

official briefing the press this afternoon said look i don't know any more than you do i'm constantly checking my phone to see if anything has been decided in london we are preparing for every option and every option is complicated. issues in brussels and in london thank you both very much for your very perspectives. let's into libya now where forces loyal to a powerful militia leader have been stopped on the outskirts of tripoli the seat of the internationally backed government the offensive launched by general khalifa have marks an escalation in the power struggle that's been raging since the overthrow of gadhafi in two thousand and eleven the u.n. secretary general antonio tennis has been visiting tripoli in a bid to avert renewed civil war. the libyan national army say they want to liberate the country from what they called terrorists and mercenaries they made rapid progress after launching their offensive on wednesday getting within thirty

kilometers of the capital tripoli before militias allied to the un backed government pushed them back. the plan to seize the capital was announced in an audio recording posted on the militias facebook page by their leader kelly for have to. heroes the time has come it is time to advance as you have always done with a firm step towards tripoli and to. peacefully. the. u.n. secretary general and turn you go terrorists have been enter a plea mediating between huffed as rival administration in the east of the country and the un backed government in tripoli i want to make a very strong appeal. for. us to stop there is no military solution for every problem in the world and there is not military solution for the problems in libya. a u.n.

organized regional conference aimed at reaching peace in libya is due to start in nine days time. it may not be up to date but some of the stories making news around the world thousands of anti-government demonstrators are marching through the algerian capital. for a seventh consecutive friday calling for change of government on the latest rally comes just days after pressure from the army and street protests forced the president of the. to step down after twenty years in power. the international criminal courts she prosecutors say is a u.s. visa has been revoked fatto bensouda was going to launch an investigation into possible crimes by u.s. soldiers in afghanistan last month a u.s. secretary of state. warned that washington would take measures against the i.c.c. staff probing u.s. forces for alleged abuses officials are recounting votes in turkey's

largest city istanbul after president. a.k.p. party demanded resign speech ect the main opposition narrowly won the city in municipal elections last weekend but the ruling party claims they were irregularities istanbul holds a special significance for the texas president he was once man of the city did obvious send us to support. the bags in this gym contain thousands of ballots cast in sunday's local elections in istanbul . a politician with the opposition c.h.p. has spent days here to keep a watchful eye on that. why do we keep watch to prevent a party from replacing the voting bags because it's before they have a lengthy record of this we have a sole purpose of securing people's rights and making sure no one is cheated.

anyone to do this. president rage uptight about one last weekend's election was one of his heaviest setbacks in the islamic group to take a county want to majority of votes nationwide but according to initial results the opposition has won key urban centers including the capital ankara and istanbul a city of more than fifteen million. billboards like this one have gone up in istanbul since election night president adlon and his candidate for may have been only give room thanking the public for their votes but actually they're facing defeat here and if confirmed this would be a stunning setback for add on himself who gained power after being mayor of istanbul in the one nine hundred ninety s. . preliminary results in istanbul give the opposition candidate extremely mamu and their own leaders about twenty five thousand votes the a.k.p. now alleges irregularities and miscounting it has pushed through

a recount of the votes in several districts. the pro-government turkish media described the opposition's unexpected success in drastic terms they liken the election to a coup blamed foreign powers for meddling in turkey's internal affairs. her own are man of the achy pieces such accusations are exaggerated but he also emphasizes the vote was not a blow for the president until let's not forget that this election is our local elections therefore interpreting these results as a general election almost like a referendum on president would be wrong but even if you do that the a party and person the party has got fifty two percent the popular vote in this country let's say we have lost some cities. anything but maybe a loss of two cities will be a humbling point for us. but voters say the results in the signal to president add one quest to find an answer to turkey's economic crisis. i kept the

a.k.p. deserve this result i support the party but it was dishonest with the people feel so this is what they get. this gives me hope it's yours people finally woke up and took a stand a little park in the low building on their video stream. didn't lose that much the politicians understood they made some mistakes now they're speaking in a different tone and showing more respectable. the opposition hopes its election victory will soon be officially confirmed its candidate actually mama lou has already changed his title on twitter to mayor of istanbul. meanwhile his fellow party member mahmoud tonight will keep an eye on the ballots and money toward the recount as long as it takes.

to france now where twitter has done a u. turn in a squabble with the interior ministry well political advertising the social media platform is the stock talking and scornful people to vote in the european elections this year to porto or the us has been following the story and joins me now welcome all of first of all what is this fact about so this all started back in december the french government introduced a new law its aim was to tackle sake news and parts of a part of the requirements was for social media platforms that hosted political adverts they needed to be more transparent including making sure that the uses know who paid for an advert and how much they paid for an adverse the reason for this of course is to make sure that there wouldn't be any many collation or influence over elections through targeted adverts by groups or by foreign agents who have a. twitter then says we don't have the technology to actually do this so instead

we're just going to ban all political advertising on the platform and fronts including the video that we just saw which was the french government's adverts to get people to vote in the european election so i take it that the french government wasn't happy a tour with this move that's right so first of all besides the fact that it was twitter who decided to ban the adverts and that was not possible of the of the lower requirements of the law the government then argues that that and ads to get people to vote is not political it's public information and we have the french interior minister he goes even further saying that sorts of priority should be to find content that glorifies terrorism not campaigns to register on the electoral lists of the democratic republic then after all of this twitter finally yesterday on thursday met with government ministers and they backtracked and they. came out

and said after many exchanges with the government we've decided to authorize encouraging electoral participation cannot criticize it doesn't have the technology to comply with the little and distinguish between what is a legitimate color for citizens to vote and fic information so do they still exist they do and facebook for example day already have tools that's. transparency tools when it comes to political advertising they haven't been rolled out worldwide yes and facebook says they will roll out this tool in europe before the european election but we have an example here from the u.s. so the content is first of all it's labeled paid then facebook has created an archive where you can see who paid for the odds how much they paid and you can also see what's what groups the targeted and where so the french government then argues

that if facebook can do it why country to do it and. comply with their law so i mean this highlights the challenge that social media platforms have and increasingly will have as more regulation is brought in by by the e.u. or by national governments right all to africa thank you very much for that. you're watching the news coming up ahead. because young should head to the mit truck metropolitan museum museum in new york to see the instruments they speed to create those little kids we'll have a preview of the exhibition. but first in new zealand now where a court has ordered the suspect in the christchurch mosque shootings and mr if people were killed to undergo a psychiatric evaluation he says then will determine whether he's fit to face trial

for mass murder. around twenty five relatives of victims and some survivors of the massacre travelled to the courtroom in christ church the accused twenty eight year old australian brenton tyrant appeared by video link he's being held in new zealand's only high security prison in oakland. he looks all right he doesn't he doesn't. he looks very fit. even for the. rules for evolution laws. you. can but i want to be. the alleged shooter is facing fifty charges of murder and another thirty nine of attempted murder experts say the case is unprecedented in the country's history as

far as. i think justice system and of course are well able. from here on and at the end of the twenty minute hearing tyrant was remanded in custody and till mid june. now for some sports and the biggest game of the season so far is just a day when the blue industry going to tell us all of this is chris how did ten of the sports and of course talk about the match between by an endorsement welcome chris to the jealous cornett of the classic a classic the juiciest encounter and abundantly got to fabulous clubs but very very different and this is this time more than a match it could be that guy could decide that's what everyone is saying right now and i'll explain why that is the case because the past seasons in the book is they here's one example five years ago bart munich clinched the title in the but as they

get after twenty seven match days fast forward to this season now we have by our actually looking up a dog when we haven't seen that in a very long time so that's why all of the buzz has been surrounding this particular match because we can actually see a changing of the guard and it's quite fascinating when you factor in both sides have new coaches and a lot of new pieces on the don't mean side a lot of youngsters and they've been definitely showing the world that they're there making this title run serious and byron so that's those are the reasons it's a big deal it's a big deal but the strange thing is the do what loan at the end of last year was many many points ahead of buy in and saturday squandered that lead and it only takes a few points ahead of by what happened you know they had a rough patch in february at the top that off they were defeated the first of march but then as of late dortmund were able to turn things around during this time biron were on fire but lately scuse me don't mean just capped off their third win in

a row against wolves pocket all cossar was the man of the match and they waited late ok they waited until the ninetieth minute al cossar netted a free kick and then an insurance goal so all of that momentum gives development you know a slight advantage and their coach bobber though he understands it's a big match and he did not discount that there is remaining games left so in his mind it might not be a so-called title decider. here's more of what he had to say about this big match. i mean it's a little bit special of course because of the situation in the table and because it's by and against dortmund it's obvious that it's special but there are seven games left and this is just the first one. like we said we have to produce our very best. everything has to be perfect. perfect. so he's quite aware of the challenge you see on five day he's new to the

classical but so is binds coach wright as a coach but as a player you know niko botches familiar with the fixture you know but you know in byron's case byron most recently struggled to get a second division team in the german cup all eyes were waiting to see will buy or lose against hiding behind but no buyer luckily were victorious in that match but then their last out in the bunch as they go were against freiburg and you know that was a tough match for me to digest because i was confused why byard could not get rid of freiburg freiburg were very impressive on the defense have been you know they got ahead early and then robert levin dosti had to touch goal to equalize that but a disappointing performance for byron munich and byron are happy that they are actually looking up. in the table as head of this match but all of the excitement is understood here's my head coach nico kobach on more about classic effort to show physio and the sometimes into journalists it's obviously perfect couldn't be any

better for me shows too in the form of to but for me as brian coach i would rather we were a few points ahead of them than to behind. these we'll have to see if we can claw back in this game and. ok so chris i'm going to put you on the spot who's going to win tomorrow well i have to put my money on do it in this case because manuel neuer number one goalkeeper will not be in between the posts will be. a bit shaky in my opinion so dormant all the way into assists from jade and sand show because i like you and you know which team i like thank you very much into the i hope you are right. turning away from fortune to music many music fans are fascinated by their idols nears a girl instruments as they are with the kids they love to hear at the metropolitan museum in new york an exhibition is set to open featuring some of a rock and roll's most prominent hardware from the telecaster played by blues
