the report of a public inquiry into the dreadful tower find london has said the emergency response had serious shortcomings 72 people died in the fire more than 2 years ago today's report only covers the emergency response risk the judge led inquiry says had systemic failures and was grieving inadequate on london correspondent bigot must has this report needed to be. a and felt how inflamed use the fire last an all night people jumped out of the windows in a desperate attempt to feed the blaze joe delaney live in film to talk just as he said the firemen couldn't get in because their key didn't fit and they seemed overwhelmed. because. you could

just see that they felt they really. and some of them were in even without breathing apparatus. breathing apparatus some of them didn't have helmet saving you see the chair delaney provided his video to the inquiry he says he wants to see the people responsible for the safety lapses brought to account. just getting inside the tower. you know. people in handcuffs people in courtrooms people in jail cells. you know people in print where it says what their daughter wrong because what you say. the inquiry has had about a catalogue of failings that led to the fire spreading uncontrollably such as fire lifts for the emergency services not working and also that the building itself did not comply with fire safety regulations any criminal convictions that the residents

here so desperately want to see are not expected any time soon they can only come out of a separate investigation that's being led by the police the inquiry report criticises the fire brigade for a series of bad decisions on the night of the fire with disastrous consequences but many people blame the local council they say complaints made before the fire were ignored and that they didn't feel safe. when the facts were neglected totally neglected for decades they had intention to sell it and therefore they were just probably waiting to phase us all out spent minimal money on it and gave it minimal attention because it was of minimal worth to them at the time as well we going full occurred in a context of cuts in the context of privatisation in the concepts of deregulation and in a context of. residents of social housing will not listen to. local

people hope that there will be real change in the future and they want to see faults like those in grunfeld tower remedied in other buildings to avoid a repeat of the disaster. that report by the big lawsuit now joins me from london to get the report as i'll be officially released with the london fire service coming in for strong criticism what more can you tell us about that. word here the report is being released just now details have been leaked to the british media and have been widely reported on so the fire service is really in the cross. the fast phase of the report particularly the policy of stay put so for a long time too long of a time is what the inquiry has concluded the fire service is asked residents to stay where they are and not move so that's a policy that normally can work if the fire is being contained to particular units of high rise block like rainfall but it didn't work because the fire in fact had

spread uncontrollably already within the highrise tower so that's a policy that comes under strong criticism also generally they did have a look at issues like the cladding for example so the house had a recent prefab richmond and the cladding which was put on off to the house was built and in recent years that led to the fire basically spreading uncontrollably now and the families of the victims have been responding to the findings. well there has been a lot of criticism that's being reserved for the council i think and reported already shows that the fire service is the individual firemen they're being held in great regard by a by the people in the community and many that i've spoken to have said that they don't want any individual firefighter being blamed they recognize their individual

bravery and that's as we've had people went in because firefighters went in because they recognize that they just had to act quickly even though they themselves were not prepared and many of them are still traumatized they join the remembrance marches now being take they're being held regularly in the area so a lot of solidarity with firefighters but a lot of anger that's really reason for the off ots where people just feel that their concerns were being ignored for years now because this report follows the 1st phase of the inquiry what happens now. there is a 2nd phase of the inquiry that's going to start next year and that's more the general sacrum stance and the building itself say so really why was it allowed at this cladding was put on the building which fire safety regulations where ignored and who exactly made these decisions who is responsible so this is really the part

of the inquiry that many residents many victims' families of survivors really are eagerly awaiting to begin in london thank you very much. let me now bring you up to date with some other stories making news around the world in somalia at least 5 people have died after a boat capsized during severe flooding 2 children were among those who drowned in the accident weeks of heavy rains have swollen rivers and destroyed farmland more than 180000 people have been forced to leave their homes in the u.s. army officer says he heard donald trump pressed ukraine's leader to investigate his democratic rival joe biden go to alexander so that he reported the phone call and phone is the 1st white house staffer to death to fire in the impeachment inquiry

against president trump. the u.s. house of representatives has voted to recognize the mass killings off on the unions by autumn onto a century ago as genocide the house also passed a bill calling for sanctions on tekkie force an invasion of northern syria turkey condemned to both votes which passed on turkey's international day. a u.n. sponsored committee charged with drawing up a new constitution for syria has started its work in geneva but the most daunting task facing them is the reconstruction of the country the assad regime may have won the military conflict but he doesn't have the money to rebuild syria after years of fighting level on the constitutional committee in just a moment but 1st this report the task is enormous 8 years of war have taken a savage toll more than a 3rd of syria's houses are damaged in some places and science cities are as good

as destroyed schools hospitals roads need to be repaired or rebuilt. the united nations estimates that it will cost $250000000000.00 others say it will be closer to $400000000000.00 yet the syrian government's entire budget last year was less than $9000000000.00 damascus has launched its own reconstruction programs but so far it has yielded little not only that the vast majority of what money is available is spent in areas that supported the government while opposition strongholds have been left in ruins. syria needs international backers to rebuild but its closest allies russia and iran do not have the money the russian economy is struggling under western sanctions over its aggression in ukraine tehran has its own sanctions to deal with. russia wants the west to pay for the

reconstruction but both the united states and the european union have said that as long as bashar al assad remains in power they will take no part in the rebuilding of syria. with mean if you do i have been to share the she's the middle east erect at behind foundation which is linked to germany's green party welcome to you and we saw syria needs a lot of reconstruction work and this comes today a constitutional committee is meeting in geneva tell us about its composition and its work well the coveting is composed out of 50 people from the regime side 50 people from the opposition and 50 members of civil society and as he said it's the 1st session they are having and therefore we don't know how that will work i just heard that a core group is focused on really jotting a new constitution so do you think that or key members are represented in this constitutional commission which has the support of the united nations and how

independent is this commission well unfortunately not all key players are represented particularly p.y.t. the dominant political group of the kurdish territory has been ruled out from participating by i'm kyra and there are also other groups that are not represented repression of those who work in the opposition of course is a major reason for many not to dare to participate is the syrian government really interested in finding a political solution because president bashar assad is very much in control of the country at the moment would he be supporting a process which could undermine his authority you know off the stand off i mean has set a time and again his approach is similar to say solution he wants to capture all syria back and there for this is just one of the elements with which he pretends to be involved in a political process that we've seen a new constitution being drafted in 2012 already assad did this constitution while

. he now changes way to make any concessions so given the fact that you say that president bush out of assad is only taking part in this as a kind of a sham process he's not really interested in real constitution change given that key elements of the syrian opposition and members of society are not represented how optimistic are you about this whole committee drafting a new constitution for syria i don't think that this is a 1st step to pay speakers at the same time we're saying the bombardment of it continues its 6 months now that it has been under constant compartments $5.00 to $6.00 hospitals have been deliberately attacked and destroyed here and there for i don't really have hope that it will change anything for civil here to start this process so what needs to change the approach of the government would need to change the regime with need to enter the transitional face this has been required by the geneva process and by un resolution without transition away from assad and his regime will not see peace in syria right from the from the. thank you very much

for sharing your thoughts with us thank you. you're watching the news coming up ahead how the people smugglers. the port of cebu good to see how. their secret human problem goes. but 1st we turn to the u.k. overwhelmingly approved prime minister of course for a snap election on december the 12th it will likely center on britain's departure from the european union where johnson hoping to secure a majority to finally get his brakes and done the voters may be the last chance for british voters to have dessie on the issue. finally something they could agree britain needs a shake up. the our eyes to the right 438 the nose to the left

20 so the eyes have it the eyes have it it was a moment of near unanimity and the most devoted of parliament. there is only one way to restore the esteem in which our democracy is held and to recover the respect to which parliament should be held by the people of this country and that is finally to offer also to the judgments of the people of this country and i have to say johnson slipping fresh elections deliver him a majority to force through breaks it once and for all his opponent however will be campaigning on other issues labor backs a general election because we want this country to be rid of these reckless and destructive conservative government. a government a government that has caused more of our children to be living in poverty more pensioners to be in poverty and more people to be in work poverty.

such themes may contrast with the mood in what will be the 1st christmas election since 1923 politicians have a job on their hands ring a we reelect tritt more preoccupied with shopping. i just i think disillusioned is the west but i think a lot pressures paid to the situation say something's got to bright because i'm sick and tired is that most of the population of this country is sick and tired of brecht's that. patience is running out no with polls showing this election could result in another divided parliament the season of giving may well threw up some unexpected surprise. yes. in other news fossils of anti-government demonstrators have taken to the streets in chile's kaptur santiago crypt try for a day of protest demonstrators clashed with police who used tear gas and water

night but the main protest camp close to the prime minister's headquarters they see her again asian is a victory but for them it is just the 1st step basically on the part of the of the world rick and say that we need the tools we need we start with the would be there would be a government. with the work that will be with this that this will that that this administration has to change still insists that the model that was the lead by political party protected here did that there was earlier protests are celebrated the moment of the 1st big change so that political system prime minister hariri announced to the nation that he was stepping down and i'll survive that i am going to the presidential palace to submit the government's resignations to president michel and our own and south people in all regions in response to the will of the

many lebanese people who have taken to the streets to demand change the head. but there are powerful forces in lebanon who are against the change the protesters are demanding. therefore hariri announce his resignation supporters of the shiite muslim political movements hezbollah and amal rampage through the main protest camp . lose the war so violent since protests started nearly 2 weeks ago. activists are back at that camp on are determined to continue their fight. hariri is departure has lifted their spirits but it may not be enough to end the country's turmoil. the discovery of $39.00 bodies in a truck trailer near london after a custom the spotlight on security at european poor. it's through which millions of tons of free fall every week and with the victims forced to have come from vietnam

need to just shows us the c.e.o. that he attaches to the back of each container he moves to. know the back door can't be opened without destroying the bolt on still the gadget isn't foolproof and others at the truck park told us smugglers can always get around the security measures. as truckers settle in for the night dock workers continue to load the next ship bound for the u.k. . it's hard not to wonder whether one of these containers might be full of people. is able to get it is one of the busiest trucking container ports in the world with 40000000 tons of goods passing through here annually security here is tight but authorities say that with so many containers coming and going it's impossible to make sure that humans are not being smuggled across these waters to. every truck delivering a container to the dock must pass through this kind of control point officials take several photos of the truck as well as of the driver and the license plate they checked the photos but no one here checks the seals that's up to the shipping

companies and only about one out of every $100.00 trucks is x. rayed to check the cargo. harbormaster peter says the port authority cannot have an overview of what the trucks are carrying with budget and personnel that would create massive delays he says it's good if you would be able to scan every single container but where do you do that is it only in the port is that the only responsibility of the port or is the whole chain of events involved in this i ask if he believes there are ways to stop the human smuggling and the deaths that often result but i think 1st of all we should do everything that is possible to avoid that's one main thing but of course we're dealing with criminal activity and criminal activity and they are always one step ahead unfortunately and if you tighten controls in the port then they will move somewhere else the local and

national police declined to comment on their role in enforcing security i'd say booka. for now it seems that smugglers will continue to operate using this port as a key point in their clandestine and sometimes deadly industry. in nigeria's biggest city in lagos it can be tough for a young artist to find a need and make a living as a 122 year old who's adept with a paintbrush and realizing his creative vision the search for a new has been successful at. the canvas i view of use of day at work. actually he's working on paper in this instance not on canvas. and yes he works while wearing a good sized mask will show you what he looks like behind the mask in a sack you saw that day starts by creating a central subject then slowly fills in or fills out his murals with intricate lines
