on earth. northern alliance with the arctic circle storage december 21st d w. this is due to all the news live from berlin britain and the e.u. struggled to put together a post brics a trade agreement a meeting in brussels between british prime minister barak johnson and the european commission president jose love on july and ends without a film deal with the talks to continue until we can't but can they overcome valerie is to a breakthrough also coming out

a passionate pandemic pulling them out cold warns that germany is losing its fight against the coronavirus she says the public has a choice except tougher restrictions or more lives will be lost. i'm jarid raid welcome to the show version and the e.u. have given themselves until the sunday to decide if they break that negotiations are worth continuing a 3 hour dinner on wednesday seen as a last ditch attempt failed to bring the 2 sides any closer to a trade deal johnson traveled to brussels after an early a fun call between him and vaughan to lie and fail to break the deadlock disagreements over fishing rights business competition rules and policing keeping the parties from hashing out to trying to deal with the brics it trends. period

expiring on december the 30 thursday fears of a chaotic splits a growing. for earlier on wednesday boris johnson told the british parliament he thinks there is quite a good deal still there to be done but he went on to say that he would not an exception agreement at any cost let's listen to what he had to say i must tell the house that our friends are currently operate in the e.u. are currently insisting good if they process a new rule in the future. with which we in this country do or compile boat follow suit then they won't be automatic right mr speaker to punish us and to retaliate and secondly they're saying that the u.k. should be the only country in the world not to have control over its fishing waters and i don't believe this is because those are terms that any prime minister of this country should. let's go now to our correspondent bob

a visa well in brussels she's been following these talks between us in the on the line and boris johnson good to see you there barbara so the 2 met for dinner it was a building billed as a chance for them to try and reach a breakthrough how did it all girth. badly because the british side afterwards said it was a frank discussion now we know that in diplomat speak that means there was a dust up and the european side talked about open and interesting discussions interesting is just another word for terrible circumstances so obviously in more than 3 hours to 2 could not somehow bring together those enormous gaps they're still talking about between the positions of the 2 sides it is of course mostly about competition it's fair competition the you insists on britain following certain rules it is the governance of the deal because there's not much trust

between the 2 sides it is still a really hot topic and one that is solved a deal could be made on fisheries but all these things hang together and this seems to be absolutely 0 movement no talks will go on until sunday evening and then the formula says we will take a decision what that would look like we don't know yet but no deal might be looming indeed none of these super promising but they have given themselves until sunday do you think they're just delaying the inevitable here. it seems like it because if there is. no app no positive energy what so ever no political will that was discernable after this meeting would be brought up. this sort of like mini summit i mean the 2 sides and then where is this going to come from there is nobody else but the 2 top politicians on each side who could give the

decisive push and say ok let's do it we'll would sort of wiggle a bit here and move a bit there and then we can sort of push this fall but absolutely no sign of that and so if all we hear is that there are huge differences then that means that those differences haven't been sort of somehow brought together it seems that we are in fact sort of going towards no deal the point you know is in the difficult question is will the e.u. get up from the table 1st or will britain do it this is important for the history books maybe. stay with us because the between the leaders of the u.k. and the e.u. wasn't the only top story in brussels the 27 e.u. states also discussed the standoff over the 1.8 trillion euro e.u. budget poland and hungary had vowed to veto the entire budget let's take a look it was them against the rest of the.

polish prime minister your small gov yes he and his home garion counterpart viktor orbán. both opposed to clause linking the release of you funds to the rule of law and we immigration yeah we see a resounding no to all the mechanisms that punishes you like your 2 children which is really holding another member states of european union as an equal in the garage one goes through when you are very. a power move that put a lot at stake. specifically the carefully crafted 1.8 trillion europe package on the blocks future fine insists that includes a trillion euro e.u. budget for the next 70 years and they 750000000000 euro rescue fund to boost ailing european economies something vital for member states who hardest by the pandemic like italy. hungary and poland have repeatedly been called out for rolling back democratic freedoms that had vowed to veto the entire budget

a crucial test for the e.u. who does what we must be determined very vigilant very committed but now it looks like a last ditch attempt by the german chancellor to resolve the issue has succeeded just in time for the new budget to kick in for next year with the current of our spending make far from over. let's go back to bob bob or a compromise looking hopeful live at a standoff over the e.u. budget and this coronavirus recovery package what exactly happens now. tomorrow when this summit is underway that is on thursday you leaders will have to make up their minds they will have to figure out whether they like this deal because this is not for angela merkel alone to decide and if poland and hungary are jubilant about it now that's a bad sign for everyone else because there's quite a number of european countries the netherlands in particular who really wanted to toughen up the rule of law mechanisms against those 2 countries that have been

called up. again and again time again and again because they were sort of not democratic groups anymore that sort of are the foundation of the european union and it seems as i'm going to america from what we have seen here has largely given in and has sort of fulfilled a lot of the demands and absolutely defend this new rule of law mechanism and given them a lot of time to play was and it would be years till you could ever sort of bring this to fruition a difficult thing a difficult decision for the of the e.u. member states then not particularly going to like it many of them and so there might be rather point discussions during the summit on this particular topic sounds like they'll be busy days in brussels ahead thank you very much time to take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world today u.s.

president elect joe biden has nominated retired general lloyd austin to be his defense secretary if confirmed he would be the 1st african-american to lead the pentagon but he faces resistance from some democrats who have a preference for civilian control of the military. u.s. president elect joe biden son hunter has confirmed his tax if is are under federal investigation current president donald trump has previously claimed hunt to biden had corrupt dealings in ukraine transfer lead pursuit of these allegations resulted in his own impeachment after he pressured the ukrainian president to investigate and to biden's work in the country. gonna as electoral commission says president. has won a 2nd term in office officials say he won over 51 percent of the vote putting him ahead of his predecessor and old rival john muhammad the results follow

a contentious poll which led to widespread protests on the violence. and despite a sex test launch in texas has ended with a crash landing after a successful ascent the starship rocket returned to the landing pad at excessive speed causing it to explode it was the highest flight yet for the rocket ship that space 6 found in one musk says could carry people to mars in as little as 6 years. old german chancellor angela merkel is known for being calm under pressure a true crisis manager on wednesday we saw another rare a side of her the chancellor delivered an impassioned plea for tougher restrictions to bring down germany's high coronavirus numbers the code 19 death toll had a record daily rate on tuesday of 590 with more than 20000 new infections here is a very warm read and moved on speaking in parliament on wednesday. uncle americal

has spoken in parliament on countless occasions but this time was different she framed the decisions now facing germany as a matter of life and death in one of the most impassioned speeches of her life there are exactly 14 days to go until christmas we have to ensure that we don't end up back in exponential growth. if we have too much contact with others before christmas and then it turns out to be the last christmas with our grandparents we will regard this as a terrible failure and that we must avoid merkel's message it's time to act shops are still open and even some traditional christmas stands are serving mulled wine out on the streets merkel says this has to change. so how does because as tough as this is i know how much love gets poured into those christmas stands and i'm sorry from the bottom of my heart but if the price we pay are 590 people dying

every day that's just not acceptable in my eyes and we must take action by those who decide to mislead us. about also condemned the protest movements casting doubt on the science behind the so-called lockdown light currently in place she made an unusually personal reference to her background as a scientist and her earlier years living under a regime with no respect for the truth that you heard today at a university in east germany i decided to study physics i probably wouldn't have done that if i had lived in the west i did it because i saw that many things could be undermined but not gravity or the speed of light or other scientific facts and that remains true for medical the fact clear a tie to look down is needed right now her next challenge is to persuade not only parliament but also the german people and the only important leaders every german

state without their consent tougher actions won't be possible but if today's speech is anything to go by merkel is ready to put political power on the line. and here are some of the other latest developments in the corona virus pandemic the u.k.'s national health service has advised that people with a history of serious allergic reactions should not receive the byron take pfizer vaccine 2 people have responded adversely to the shots just a day off to max mass vaccinations began the u.s. has registered more than 3000 deaths from covert 19 in 24 hours this is the highest number of daily fatalities since the beginning of the pandemic authorities had warned of a spike in cases and deaths after millions traveled around the country for thanksgiving and south africa has officially entered the 2nd wife of the pandemic this was declared by the country's health minister after close to 7000 new infections were

but he's a loss what to them i seem to make a fuss to parliament my last walk today is that. you can count on me i've walked into parliament i've only say to folk that if i let me i don't come to they get to they get to come to the parliament so i want you to know it till i come to the parliament of uganda i want to want you to leave out what you want to change we're going to change it together my role is to give people confidence and to make them believe in democracy which they believed in. the whole country had been watching these elections it felt bigger than a general election while this was just a by election for chad and east one of the 146 constituencies but there was also a big dot in the back of people's mind is he going to deliver easy capable does it not just for the faint.

it had mixed feelings you know. politics. lies in his alcohol and i was trying to show him that there is a way things have been going on in uganda and when you look you wouldn't wish it on your friend people are captured beaten up all sorts of things and that's what we're heading into you know wolf. have been by that represent ever did he leave his jet from the get go might. be one was not even a week old serving in parliament when

a huge challenge came to his path they wanted to remove the presidential x. limit of 75 from the constitution and if this bill passes president most of any can again rule for another term in 2021. why do we need another and when he heard all that he asked himself should i sing a song that he got an idea and decided to go to the studio and he recorded a voice message voice not my name is joe when you sentamu also known as bobby one. the story of day of september 2017 he said very sad indeed leadership of our country they passed a resolution to remove presidential age limits from the constitution of uganda so that president will 70 can become my president. they did this at a time when no one nation has been bleeding for the last that the one who has our country's form of lollies all grown up generates i mean some of the student bodies

that gets washed and we mean that day when giving back you get it did members of parliament think the best response to these crises is to move a genius where my message to them is these you are created as you have betrayed your country you have sold your course just for cheap history will judge you very much the last shots that we could see from bobby wine he was in custody at the police station but we all knew that he had an interview on n.b.c.'s uganda biggest news channel so we were waiting to see if he would continue serving our like a schema monet recording said yes i say you need to let me see did today beckon arrow so i had to do the same for you but if the police judge today vowed to n.b.s. and rescind the just move the end of the city and even then the police had to wait for us. all but chanting anybody who wouldn't i was charged for inciting

violence. they had video that included. so i was sending a message to the people to tell them that it's actually their constitutional right to call 3 subsection full of the constitution that every ugandan has a right and actually has a duty to protect the constitution and the right. note to sit down the rise up and defend the constitution before the constitution is too weak to defend. our plans to. propose to him he's. had a plan go to sleep at our places. plant where it starts. to be implemented to get out my fellow m.p.'s to stop. this beautiful meeting being presented and now i'm heading by let me unless i end up i meant still how they meet at a concert actually.

going to go. back home as. new books by the time we got into the main road everyone around could tell it was the war he lived on. earth. but the growth was blocks traffic on the other side that's when bobby one got out of the car when he got out he just jumped onto a motor taxi for the day became running after him while he was on a motor taxi album go go go.

could be nudged out and you go well police i told bobby the police were following you know them go home come back you know many people coming to drive in replied the police can't catch up. with. you heading to parliament but another $100.00 we took shortcuts to legal planning meetings. for us who we are watching on t.v. because but i'm into was under siege which was surrounded by you or me to other forces. then the best way to get out of the house. nothing wrong with a get out of the hell do you think that having a son he was going out of his house. this vehicle is not following divorce or

proceed to. bond leave military only when your dad she was given almost 6000000000 shootings. showered daintree does drugs has put a mint. a shout out. for us for is each one of them peace so that's true a sure way i personally to let you see if history glows a strip you of do what you. seem to question 70 countries here we go into this sort of. situation but this trip. i do for.

all those. who saw my days with the block ships. from the us with that. lead to. things when some members of country. and this was a plan b. body one was taken to mccallum a police station when a big part of the world was receiving this. after this fight the whole country was

suddenly interested in national politics something was going on. all of us at university and i was the best in us schools so i was brought to come to take him in a drama so he was also brought from m.d.t. i came here so got to meet him stage he was distinct was different he had. walked differently he was full of himself he really talked to us he came late left . but he was very very very good and so one day pushes me to go and then you would have to have some muscle to fight for a seat so he would fight for my feet then the stinky force from my seat then date the conductor said you can't get out of the that fear in the city to save my city so you brought me all the way home so when he came. this boy davy.

do you know who you know we are and i'm like what do you mean to me. and i'm like what do you mean he said here is not the one the one of this long called and i'm like what. is that. of course it felt like there was the tray on my side i needed to have known things from the steps. ok it took me some time and he just think you know i think that being you but if the bedding gave that to you so he jabs you jeff this checks go who does not know the town he's not a thief. he's known. easy walking have and any money so he stands. for then i don't know wait ended and then we went back together.

we read in the newspapers the 3 explosives were thrown at the home yes the place where bobby bobby wayne and their 4 children states it was directly related to the fucked up but doing was trying to talk to its limit bill from being passed but not i'll get to tell you it was just buses that would be out moment. he started a campaign with other opposition members to stop this bill the campaign color was red so everybody was wearing grit even members of the ruling party were joining to complain the name to complain to quite a call meaning don't touch the constitution what was that got much to do what i went to do when i 1st started civic things look good. i was here one mate. and you know but called me that day i dropped grenades at his house.

i think that we're mourning his place. and i was there. several members part of it came to show him it will come to them. down then they get to people are beginning to get this real hope they. they believe things can change and indeed things can change so we just can't give up it's usually when you know that what we're doing is right if you call for my children in your company anything i've. said to 6 faced some of them are crying right you 2 of you are going to leave these people alone but when you look at the promise we give people when you look at their conviction we have in our hearts. you realize that you're. a guy when vince trouble only guy right.

down over and he drove back to his studio without telling anybody and the next morning he took me to the studio to listen to his new project with dan magic and the one i heard the song freedom freedom. destructive video so fast because us kid that the to be stopped. we released it the moment we were on the plane. they were never arrested him. bucknor you do even named it the freedom tor because a release of a song and by the time we got to south africa everyone knew the song thank you. this song screed like the last 5 even if you did not get played so much on t.v.
