to doctors this resident says she can't make sense of the measures. it's unfair nobody knows exactly who can go in or out or what is still allowed. for a year because is a poor neighborhood where many live in overcrowded conditions that's resulted in one of the highest infection rates in the city 6 times higher than more prosperous districts in the north many residents in by yank us have to travel to madrid to return neighborhoods for work often as cleaners or waiters many workers say the near rules are and reasonable. effort in every way it's shameful so i have to take the matter to go to work i could in fact myself or others what's the point of these measures. it's completely unjust other areas have

also many cases only a lockdown in the whole of madrid would make sense. many in the south of madrid feel discriminated again. and neglected over the past years by it has health centers suffered several cuts to its budget a sign on the door worries that the clinic is down 5 doctors a fatal lack of staff in the midst of a pandemic. we are without doctors nurses and money pretty much everything we are exhausted the class conflict has also reached madrid opera house on sunday it hosted aaron dition a very decent ball while the cheaper upper tears were crammed. down below in the most expensive seating areas there was plenty of space 1st social distancing. protests and the operatives were so persistent that the performance had to be

and wounded as angry protesters erupted in connection with the killing of a black woman while the demonstrations follow the announcement that no one would be charged with the killing of taylor black an innocent black woman while taylor was shot in her own apartment by plainclothes police back in march her death has become an important focus for the black lives matter movement protesters are calling for an end to what they say is an justified police violence. shots fired against police in louisville. 7 right there down. here i was. as they were deploying to do this to get what was going on at 1st and broadway shots rang out and 2 of our officers shot both officers are currently undergoing treatment but university hospital. one is in alert in stable

the other officer is currently undergoing surgery in stable we do have one suspect in custody. the officers were shot during protests ignited by a grand jury decision that 2 white police officers were not to be charged over the death of briana taylor taylor a black medical worker shot in her own home during a raid in march became a symbol for the black placemats or myth meant. i. was or was. or was. a state of emergency has been declared in louisville as the authorities confront protesters. several were arrested. so i'm here. because i think it's you know it's not right to kill her and i have no repercussions for doing this again when i 1st found out about it i just felt like

the city of little city i grew up in filth black women today they felt like women miserably and it spoke all across the nation in. the. demonstrations have been held across cities including new york chicago and atlanta as protesters demand justice for what they call on warranted to police violence. and they want to buy and the idea is that in louisville and he filed this report excellent question and i don't have an easy or simple answer for you because i don't know the law experts don't know the attorney of the taylor family it doesn't really know and have to succumb to saying like this is a total disgrace this decision the attorney general of the state kentucky has said he followed the law the state law and there was no room and no space allowing him

to charge any of those officers directly and that is key here directly to the death of briona taylor that's why we already have a charge of and dangerman in the 1st degree and 3 counts of this for one officer the other 2 weren't even charged that is literally no chacha can't any of the law enforcement involved in the death of briana taylor and of course this is not sitting well with anybody here people actually at an absolute loss how this can happen and no justice no peace this is what we heard all day long this is what we're going to and we will hear this for the next few days and nights not only here in louisville kentucky i'm sure about that you have the most at reporting that from louisville kentucky well we stay in the u.s. where president donald trump a has refused to commit to a peaceful transfer of power if he loses in november's presidential election well let's trump has said was speaking at a news conference

a in the white house so when he said this. paul we have to see what happens you know that i've been complaining very strongly about the ballots and the ballots are disaster and people are writing to you to making sure that there's a nice little warning for all of the want to have get rid of the ballots and you'll have a very transpo have a very peaceful there won't be a transfer or frankly there will be a continuation of the ballots are out of control you know it and you know who knows it better than anybody else the democrats know it better than anybody else. president trungpa speaking there with me is peter hunted that left us election team quite a remarkable scene that we've just witnessed what has been the reaction well you know with a lot of things that trump has said regarding this topic there's been a lot of outrage obviously you know the question is why is he saying it i think also and part of that is you know just looking at the data really he is like

the rotary election for donald trump is looking fairly bumpy he's been trailing in the polls for months now including in several key swing states a normal circumstances you would kind of lean back and let the election take its course but these are not normal circumstances right this is not a normal election that's taking place in the middle of the pen demick that has led a lot of people to want to vote by mail so they can stay safe they don't have to go to the voting pool boos and that is why we can expect i think the election results really also to come in 2 waves the 1st one will be on election day when a lot more republicans say that they expect to turn out to vote in person that means that on election day we could see trump in the lead but in the days and weeks following when we start to get the results from the from the mail in ballots which more democrats say that they want to take advantage of we could end up with seeing

joe biden in the lead meaning that biden would be declared the winner days after the actual election day and there's one thing we know about trump is that he does not like losing and so what he's really done is that he has started to sow doubts about the integrity of the election he's calling into question the lid of the of the the mail in ballots to say that there are susceptible to fraud i have to say there's no basis for that claim there's no history of huge fraud connected with mail in ballots trump himself has taken advantage of that a numerous a case. still he's insisted that the only way joe biden can win if there's fraud has accepted that he would not accept a result like that what are we looking at here for here what in the hypothetical case he loses and doesn't well concede yeah it's a peaceful transfer of power is one of the hallmarks of american democracy great so we would really be entering uncharted territory and you can just look at how joe

biden his democratic challenger reacted when he was asked about that statement. says the most rational thing i. thought of what was a. surprise. right so a lot of uncertainty not just from biden but among experts about what it would actually mean if trump refused to concede we're seeing constitutional lawyers we're seeing political scientists trying to map out the various scenarios a court of the constitution if trump loses he and his vice president mike pence would have to leave by january 20th but that leaves a lot of time between election day on november 3rd so generally 20 that's more than 2 months and most expect that trump will not waste a 2nd he will try to contest that outcome take it to the supreme court of possible and that's also part of the reason why a lot of people believe that he is in such a rush to get a new confirmation on the supreme court after ruth bader ginsburg died just last

week if you look at this graphic you can really see why you know before her death the balance on the court was fairly equally have 4 liberal leading leaning justices you had 5 conservative if trump manages to get his appointment through before the election that what tilt the balance strongly in his favor 6 conservative justice on the court and that means that he would have a clear advantage should it go you know should it end up contested election and that is why a lot of people also really hoping i think for a blowout election outcome that is so clear cut so ambiguous that there's no way to contest it but we're going to have to wait for a long time for the results to come in thank you so much and peter of that i thank you appreciate it i want to tell you now but some of the other stories making news around the world. protesters have gathered outside thailand's up parliament calling for a far reaching changes to their constitution lawmakers are voting on a series of amendments as
