nation's capital has changed in the last 3 decades. and the chief executive officer of the fast food giant mcdonald's has fired over a consensual relationship with an employee is it a sign of progress in the me to iraq some people find it hard to swallow. plus we just wanted to go before the next presidential election in the u.s. did johnny winter a town in rural wisconsin considered a bellwether of the political mood so what are the locals there predicting. out of a bowl welcome to you. this is demanding political reform in lebanon have blocked roads across the capital beijing demanding an end to corruption and calling for

president michelle him to step down the protests have been going on for more than 2 weeks and led to the resignation of the government last week but now supporters of the system and off the president have also taken to the streets. brought to help our allies a country they say just isn't working these anti-government protesters have little confidence in the future accusing the government of not only corruption but also incompetence. we are escalating our protests because we don't trust this corrupt government they're negotiating with themselves we warned them that if we take to the streets we wouldn't go away we used to come and block the roads until noon and then leave this time blocked forever. the protesters have blocked key roads across the country more than one quarter of people in lebanon live in poverty the economy has stalwart lurching from one political crisis to

another. person porters of president michel aoun are rallying around barely thousands turned out to push back against calls for him to step down face save the country needs him to root out and tackle the problems facing their country. a family in the president isn't to blame for lebannon he's not responsible for everything wrong in the country today he shouldn't step down protesters think if the president needs power the problems will be solved on the contrary if that happens the crisis will worsen. the image that the. president has appealed to the protesters for patience. dari we have put together a roadmap to deal with the 3 points. corruption the economy and a civil state. they are not easy points to deal with. madani.

but public opposition against him bridges religious and economic divides demonstrators say no good can come to the country until the current system of power is overthrown. and for the very latest let's go to beirut and to the puerto. montt was on the big mall big protests going on there what are people there demanding and did everytime there are big protests and it would put testers are ducking little they are trying to paradise. trying to paralyze the country at this point to pressure the government to achieve other 3 months they believe that the 1st demand was greeted by the resignation of the prime minister saad and now they're looking for seeking a government at the practical limits and they are not also dissatisfied with their resignation of prime minister saad had it but they are also asking for it is the big point that he said i want to step down and. which should actually be

stepping down of the mission. but as you said some people are calling for president michel alone to step down but he still seems to have some support as we saw in demonstrations yesterday how divided is the country at the moment. the country is actually that by the moment you have a street that supports the president said i want and they were reading yesterday in front of the presidential palace and bobbed up and to be solid nature at night they were supporters of the future movement led by a criminal prime minister stuck at it who had to downtown beirut to sort of court for prime minister saad had so basically and the benign is that by that everywhere at this it is trying to use this to eat and to be able to be part of the government that is about to sing. and the streets in the capital beirut blocked in protest to

say they're going to continue with their with their protests what's on lebanese authorities doing to get this very tense situation under control. so that in turn on the internal security forces and after the lebanese armed forces i think their best to avoid any clash with the protesters that they don't want any conflict teachin by that country is that the case and on the other hand put it distance i have been there when the question is since of how. each of their representatives is going to be a part of. the government that is that is about citizens and according to that it is constitution and now it's it's time for him and it's mandatory at this moment that's for because additions to magic i think this is a case for the government to be seated and the new prime minister to clinton in this past. month thank you very much for that update on the protests in bed route.

the ball had stood for nearly 3 decades slicing through berlin it was a deadly symbol of the cold war between east and western europe between the us and the soviet union. demonstrations in east germany had put pressure on an already unstable regime the communist government then decided to east travel restrictions to the west 1st post of mine a dangerous distrust of course the communist official caught off guard mistakenly told reporters that the new regulations were effective immediately within hours joyful chaos broke out at east berlin spota crossings it was the beginning of a new era was the 1st and much his scenes in berlin since the war fell there was divided city has been reunified but as vision anextra forth some divisions do remain. the center of poland

skyscrapers and tourists go the streets but this was the death strip until 1909 as oh no belinda was allowed to enter can't daniel grew up in east berlin the wall stood right next to his home this is where he started taking photos. when i was rented operative i took my zoom lens and photographed it from far away yet that is because it was strictly forbidden to take pictures of the border area you know that's going to preserve off yet. his pictures show berlin's radical transformation this wasteland has become germany's government quarter the city may change but some things stay the same people need to love and to eat. i used to love to come here with my camera because there was lots of life here lots

of images to be captured and one thing that hasn't changed is qana because it's still here today. famous for its color borst cannot has been selling sausages for 90 he is now and still serves the same menu the kleins today and different though. we are this used to be a working class neighborhood there were factories everywhere everyone dropped in here after their shift or on their way to work. the book ate for most east berlin as this was the end of the world today the city has been reunited but forget donegal somethin still remains. i mean it's a thought if i still have the wall in my head. and when i travel across a on public transportation in my mind i'm traveling from east to west or from west to east that's just stayed in my head. professionally and that's why

i'm envious of the young people who do not have the same side on them. but those who were born after the war what were manes is just part of history. and that report by. the oldest you can be used fresh live coverage and reports of the events which led to the fall of the berlin wall 30 years ago right here on the. turning of the u.s. and presidential elections on to sierra way and donald trump could be heading for a tough race an average of all the opinion polls put strom's approval ratings at just about 41 percent but look seriously for him almost 55 percent of americans disapprove of the job that he's doing a key question is who will trump face in the 2020 election. most fullest predict that if it's full of vice president joe biden then we lose that many people who

suggest that the look for aggressive democratic candidate elizabeth warren could also have a slight edge over trump opinion polls there's just one beef assessing which way the election could go another is to look at bellwether regions now richland county in wisconsin has truth to be a reliable indicator since $980.00 the county has all of us voted for the winning candidate so the dumbass correspondent all of us salat travel to richland to good gauge the mood that feeding time for dairy farmer mark stalls and his calves like most people in richland county stoltz voted for president trump in 2016 but twice for barack obama in the elections before this time he says the political mood is anything but clear. more than most people saw i don't i we don't talk a whole lot about it but it can get very testy very quickly even within our family

i've got to give give give give give give give give give give give give give give give give give give give me even though you voted for trump in the last election marks told hears of all the key democratic issues like health care and climate change he also wants an end to the president's trade more farmers like him particularly hard he says. so that that's hurt we don't have a good place to ship malchen way products and cheese and you know it's all right on the markets got a lot of milk and cheese on it and americans are drinking less milk wisconsin lost over $600.00 dairy farms in the last year. richland center with its 5000 citizens is the largest town in richland county a bellwether for the presidential election since 1980 the majority here has always voted for the winning candidate. richland county is traditionally a republican county. do we always vote that way you know i

wouldn't vote for a i don't like him my doesn't think i think if he keep his mouth shut if they offer twitter he would be fine i think it's with all the impeachment so it's going to be very noisy and interesting for the next year but if i was betting today i would bet he'll get elected again. at the local newspaper editor dawn key 1st says left and right wing supporters in the county are fighting for the public's attention she is often criticized for printing opinion letters that are too critical of president trump. i suggest to those persons they ought to write letters their their own selves expressing their beliefs but most of those people declined and they don't explain why not i suspect they don't want their name in the paper. dairy farmer remarks told says the decisive factor for him will be who the democratic contender is if the candidate is too progressive he might stick with

donald trump even if that means more suffering for him and the farmers richland county. it was indeed the news still to come nickel sacks and big changes on the way for germany's most successful football club what next for the mighty brian. but for the fast food chain mcdonald's has fired its chief executive for having a consensual relationship with an employee in a statement the fast food giants board said steve easterbrook had violated company policy and josh meant company policy forbids managers from having romantic relationships with subordinates and mcdonald's shares have almost doubled to book took over in 2015 he also leave the board of directors. thank you for. this instance joins me for more on that story. not this relationship was

consensual why then it was to leave well as you mentioned donald the rules do prohibit monitors from having any kind of relationship of a sexual nature with subordinates easterbrook as the c.e.o. of the company by definition contact with anybody at work and we don't know if this person in question was a fellow high ranking executive or if maybe the person was a flipping burgers but what we do know is that the reason that these rules are in place is to prevent abuse of power and if you think about the fact that steve easterbrook last year earned just $16000000.00 that's 2 cyzon times as much as the median salary at mcdonald's there's certainly an argument to be made that an equal and even a relationship between him and anyone else his workplace is impossible and mcdonald's isn't the only company that has these kinds of rules in place and in fact last year intel's boss actually stepped down for the very same reason for having

a consensual relationship with an employee the key does give us some context here it seems mcdonald to some time very good record in ensuring the safety and security of few 1000000 please it seems that's right so if you look at the fast food sector in general in the u.s. 1st of all one in 4 employees say they have been sexually harassed at work and the majority of these victims are women of color working in low wage jobs and many of them say that they face the choice of either speaking out or keeping their jobs and mcdonald's is no exception at all in this regard earlier this year 25 women across 20 different cities in the united states filed complaints about sexual harassment at work and these allegations range from inappropriate touching to soliciting sex and this of course generated a huge amount of negative publicity for mcdonald's there were protests across the country and they did react and under the leadership of steve easterbrook they introduced some measures to try and combat this problem so there was. an anonymous hotline introduced an extra training but you can see in this context that it's not

a great look for steve easterbrook to be having what the company itself deems to be an inappropriate relationship when they're at the same time trying to crack down on this kind of abuse of power and course this is also really you can't neglect movements like need to time's up in its context because we're now living in an era where the behavior of powerful men is no law it's no longer being turned a blind eye today it's coming under scrutiny and while the cynic might say that this was simply a preemptive move on the part of my mouth an optimist might say it's just an instance of corporate rigor and responsibility get ferguson from. thank you. here here's some more news stories in the news at the moment relatives of more than 100 murdered or missing women have marched in mexico city on sunday the rally in the mexican cab to was to protest against violence against women in the country 9 women and girls are killed in mexico every day that's according to the united

coach on sunday night. until the middle of 2021. been with the. and after a shaky. season but recent weeks have seen inconsistent results and discord within the team after the frankfurt debacle. this is what has happened is not a fluke if you saw the cup game in bochum last week and what has happened isn't really a big surprise to me it's kind of reasonable rational or super that can just be blamed on getting a red card early and the guy gets the order card to nothing worked out. so now we are in a situation which we have to confront a woman jones was another we will have to analyze things and talk about it but of course we have to change something even cover himself saw the need for improvement

before learning of his sacking. videos or mad less we should be losing $51.00 what we have to grasp is that sure was a man less it's going to be more difficult to win. but something like that should never happen. now those same worries will be inherited by cobar successor in the hot seat at biron. so who will take that hot seat had by minute the splendid speculation and possible names linked to the club those linked to the club include those in the arena and acts and to dan's addict and high but for the short term it's bonds assistant coach hans the flick takes charge of binds next to matches in the champions league and the bundesliga flick was you have him nerves assistant coach when germany of on the but in brazil in 2014. to motor racing and must see this driver lose hamilton has sealed a 6 formula one time was title after finishing vanner up at the us group 3 in texas

the biggest driver is not just one title behind the all time record holder. us hamilton knew 8th place would be enough to clinch a 6 word title in texas but in typical style he went all out for the victory having started to trip on the grid. he took the lead made great through the race and new clever time. 6 would be necessary to hold on. his decision to take a single pitstop to hold off his rivals was a risky move even for him. it's critical i like to watch the worthless. messages teammate valtteri bottas edged him to 1st but that day belonged to hamilton who just held off red bulls max fresh to finish 2nd it was a moment to bask in. god. i worked as hard as i could
