induced couch potato life coach that germany's economy can finally start getting back into shape 2. plus after perry and bombshell interview the british monarchy stays silent so for the royal family is sticking to his practice of never complain never explain following the couple's accusations of racism and alienation how will the palace respond. oh i'm terry martin good to have you with us activists in myanmar's biggest city and gone are back on the streets today after protesters in one district were trapped by police overnight demonstrators have set up barricades in the area where witnesses say around 50 people were arrested last night others have been able to leave thousands of. esther's across the country have taken to the streets in recent
10:02 am
weeks to demonstrate against military rule violent crackdown in the country has led to more than 50 deaths. for more let's bring in journalist game in touch in. activists say some of those who were being pursued by police were able to get away safely in yangon what about the other. so about 50 people were arrested in the downtown the township where activists were trapped we also know that in another part of yangon in downtown yangon about 30 people were arrested from their households so what we're seeing right now with security forces is that they seem to be targeting rank and file members of the l.t. party the national league for democracy which is the party that won the election in november of 2020. number of their leadership has been arrested and were arrested on the very 1st days of the coup but what we're seeing now is that they are targeting

the people who are the most outspoken union leaders frank about members of the winning party as well as the activists that they can find on the streets so that's what's happening in the i'm gone the biggest city in myanmar what about other parts of the country where there have also been protests what can you tell us about the. so other parts of the country are seeing very many protests and the level of violence that we're seeing there really depends on both the type of protests that are being used by protesters as well as who's being involved in those protests so in certain areas like shan state and the state where there are ethnic armed organizations you do see that protests tend to be either very violent with the police outright killing people using live rounds to disperse people or they're quite say at least from security forces because you do see ethnic arm organizations accompanying protester protesters with soldiers who are armed and then in other
10:04 am
parts of the country you do see a range of different forces being used by police and military in order to disperse people and to that yesterday we had at least 2 more people who were killed. the protest movement holding up in terms of trying to achieve what. do the protesters still believe they're going to be able to win concessions from the military. so i think the important thing to remember about the anti coup movement is that it's not just people on the streets protesting it's also a broader movement of civil disobedience and. the testers as well as government workers who have essentially declared themselves unaccountable to the military regime have been able to get quite a number of successes for example they've been able to force many public as well as almost all private banks to close this fight the military putting out orders
10:05 am
threats as well as enticements to try and get the banks to reopen there's also been able to largely stop international trade with mark being a country that is heavily reliant on exports for its economy and so you know what we're seeing number of successes from the protesters side even as they are facing this kind of violence so it remains to be seen how successful the overall movement will be. minturn journalist and young don thank you very much for that update. thank you for having me. european lawmakers in brussels have decided to lift the parliamentary immunity of for cattle and president carlos pushed among and 2 of his colleagues they fled to belgium 3 years ago after fearing arrest after holding an independence referendum that a druid said was illegal the 3 were elected to the european parliament in exile in 2019 giving them immunity from extradition spanish authorities are expected to

well here in germany the country has begun a cautious exit from coronavirus lockdown announced last week by chance of a medical bars restaurants and most non-essential businesses remain closed but strict limits on private contacts have been eased and some sections of the economy can once again welcome customers. time to get back in shape after the enforced inactivity of lock down james like this one invest by limiting the number mosques are essential and time slots have to be built online but the fitness friends and just glad to be back. it's a great feeling to finally be able to do some real sports again after 3 months of just jogging and a few pushups at home despite the restrictions with the mosque and everything he's of course a bit more freedom again you know trick nephite to retail to this relief after months of window shopping only this clothing store in north rhine-westphalia can
10:09 am
finally let customers in again he. can enter the system is called click and mate yeah that's click. meet is of course a chance to make some money whether it will be the same turnover that we would normally make i doubt that because the customers don't want to book a fixed appointment and spontaneous purchases are completely out. pantani quite a fine complex take in many parts of the country museums are opening to a trickle of well spaced visitors and in some winter resorts even ski lifts of started operating again. to check if more activity means more infections there's a promise of one free corona test per week for everyone here in our tests are available but not many came to get one on monday morning partly because of confusion about what was on offer. this time to. time it was
10:10 am
not clear which groups are supposed to come in and what was actually being asked of the test centers in the end we were able to open this morning we got the documentation at half past 7 and we got going but there were some nervous moments before that. gets it on with. this germany emerges from lockdown people 1st have to get used to the new rules building strength and stamina is also a good idea the government has warned it will be months yet before the pandemic is over. now to the prince his wife and what the world is talking about britain's prince harry and his wife make it have spoken on t.v. about their intense struggles with royal life most of what they had to say to oprah winfrey shocked the world and very likely buckingham palace to hear some of the interview 5 advocated for so long for women to use their voice and then. i was silent. were you silent or were you
10:11 am
silenced the latter but i knew that if i didn't say it that i would do it and i i just didn't i just didn't want to be alive anymore my biggest concern was history repeating itself and i've thought about before on numerous occasions very publicly so when i asked the question why did you leave the simplest answer is. lack of support a mark of understanding prince harry raised in the palace in a life of privilege literally a prince how you were trapped within the system. for the rest of my farm real my father my brother they all tromped. in london like culley bergen has been following that story all along and of course the interviews well beckett's the interview has given the british will family a lot to chew on how's it going down with the british public it's
10:12 am
interesting terry though was a poll done last night from what you have seen and had was the interview appropriate or not is what the british people were all stunned only hope of people at onset said no it was not appropriate so that chimes with the general polls that always tell you that the queen is very very popular in britain but that actually harry and makan are much less popular generally within the public and it's very divisive this interview just over all so many secrets where spilled there was so much detail about life inside the palace and people are really divided as team wins oh who say that harriet magen all self-serving and that was whining and talking about authenticity while being in their luxury mention in california you know very negative and then others are saying it's good that they speak out and that meghan
10:13 am
maka for example speaks out and is not allowing herself to be silenced as a black woman so very very polarizing. time a polarizing one thing that really stood out in the interview was the allegation of racism in the royal family let's listen in to that part and also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he's born. what and who who is having that conversation with you. it's a hold on hold out there is out there are several conversations a conversation with you with harry about how dark your baby is going to be potentially and what that would mean or look like. so we're left knowing who made the comment about our skin color which casts the entire
10:14 am
royal family in a racist light put tremendous pressure on the queen to publicly address the issue of racism. prince harry had made it clear harry had made it clear that off after the interview that it wasn't the queen over to go $500.00 bro who had made these remarks but over the there is intense speculation of who that would have been and yes there is a big debate now about racism we haven't had a statement from the palace and i'm not sure whether we're going to get one then he time soon the queen had said before she wasn't even going to watch the interview bots it's a very grave allegation and many people are demanding that it should be investigated so the pressure on the palace to react somehow is definitely there there thanks very much very good bus in london. and just reminder the top stories we're following for you here today on the news reports say some of the 200 protesters trapped overnight by security forces in yang going to
10:15 am
have been allowed to go free from 15 were arrested thousands defied curfew to disrupt the crackdown. and the british monarchy has remained silent trust or an explosive interview by prince harry and his wife megan the couple accused members of the world family racism they can also reveal the intense pressure caused her to have suicidal so. you're up to date on terri march thanks watch. in mexico many push. us right now in the world climate change different hoffa story places one classic way from just one week. how much worse can it really get. we still have time to act i'm going.
