1:43 pm
a mixed practice drill, withstood is quite an exception might soon become the norm. but the new initiative has certainly sparked a debate. some say, the kaplan government, i've gone a bit too far in the name of equality. others say it's high time for spain to step up and close those gender gap. o, the fire department here in the northeastern spanish city of garden or years is conducting a training dro. it's all in a day's work for maria casias. she is one of catalonia, as few women firefighters. soon there will be more thanks to a new gender quota. one that i began 9 in midland, the allied to this and when i was a young girl at the, i knew i couldn't have imagined becoming a fire fighter. glendale of women didn't do that gay with most of it. but i think when people see women doing this job able encourage other women to give it a try. they bought out a set of only dog when they say i was good. and ah,
1:44 pm
for now though, women are still an exception. in the catalogue fire department, they make up less than 3 percent of the 4th awe. today, maria is training with female firefighters from the region. in this drill they have to rescue an injured driver using heavy equipment with high intensity work that takes a lot of skill. plenty of money isn't i was a gay man. basil not it is honestly there on my know when he started 7 in the morning. you never know what's coming and not ease him, but as a i n o and depending we're can a teen next to us. so you're never alone go nike book i in august s. solo. the catalog regional government has now introduced

1:46 pm
its goal lateral. he had to negotiate amounting to the him, the able to society should approach this more intelligently in the for talented people, whether they're men or women. the settlement of it is key. so we need to change a way of thinking that it was a good doctor. and it doesn't matter, they're a man or a woman, they won't tell nobody. oh no more. i need good firefighters, whether male or female, nominate, or normal, had our government. administrators need to focus on ability and skills. the videos, that's what our society needs were stuck in. there said if you can make c collateral through that with you. oh yeah, it's a hot topic among the firefighters. gosh, maria doesn't want to comment on like her male colleagues got a yellow guzzle vicki into women with lower grades might pass the admission test just because sponsor reserved for them. if you will normally go much another. and a man with a better grade might not get in, and i'm glad we'll get on to the level credit desperate about to lose the top brass in the department say that's not a worry. the quota sends a message,
1:47 pm
but skills and aptitude are what count. a female candidate will only get the job if she's just as qualified as a man. at today's meeting, the head of the catalog fire department has good news. i say last year just one and 9 candidates was a woman this year. it's one out of 4 feet by beach. ok. it who is still sitting at a soldier to do nominal the altar. napoleon was the cause. we have a problem and we need to solve it empty. he didn't throw the asking fans. country can't wait for the free market to fix it, but he seemed in 10 or 15 years, we'll still have hardly any women in the fire department. i was on the invoice so we're trying to speed up the process. you live adult, put officially. they normally 13. 0 that yeah. i for our rights is the rallying cry at this training session. the women fire fighters of catalonia, take pride in their achievements. 11 live them and it doesn't
1:48 pm
matter if we're a man or a woman while we run toward the fire, when others are running away and go to yeah. hey, maria says it takes courage and passion to work as a fire fighter. and she's delighted that soon more women will be working at her side and now to another traditionally mail domain. the football club, newcastle united, had long languished on the bottom of the english premier league, but in 2021. a saudi arabian back vehicle was made newcastle, the world's richest football club overnight. some long time. fans leg daniels, franklin on celebrating dough. newcastle is now bankrolled by a saudi arabia public investment fund. and daniel suspects that the saw, these might have had other motives than purely a passion for the sport. new castle is back,
1:49 pm
fans of the english football club are rediscovering their pride and the team for years newcastle united have been struggling. but that's all changed since a saudi consortium took over the club and shelled out some 300000000 euros to sign top talent. i feel that would be way of all for us to long time, but now it's a, it's just an immense failure. we just want to see some trophy back here. let's over what it about right now. so be good. but not everyone's happy, including daniel spragons for 30 years, he was a regular at the stadium. now he just comes by for a quick look and then leaves as a sign of protest. i can sit with any more inside the grounds. it's, it's, it's disappoint at saud buddha. i feel i can't be there. i feel uncomfortable. it's about yes of our values. hundreds of other fans feel the same way. these days daniel watches matches at the local pub. in essence,
1:50 pm
the saudi state now holds the majority steak of his club. but i think once another country, a state takes ownership of your close. you way, you've got to be open to how they behave and how that impacts on, on you, and what it means. steel, city, saudi arabia's motives are after all, not just about the game. the desert nation has enormous oil wealth, but it draws criticism internationally for its human rights record, the saudi prime minister, crown prince mohammed bin solomon, has a reputation for ruthlessness. it said there is an evidence he ordered the murder of jamal kashodi, a critic of the regime. the crown prince denies the allegations, but they're bad for his image. that's just one of the reasons the saudi sovereign well fund bought new castles, beloved football club. the public investment fund has one mission to ensure
1:51 pm
a saudi arabia's prosperity, the oil reserves will dry up at some point. the crown prince runs the fond personally journalist aaron stokes has been observing how the new saudi owners have been burning. their image invested money in the plan squads behind the scenes. i mean, even, you know, change the name of the ball to sheer us ball was a big, big thing, put the hand in the pocket and really helps you know, the fonts food bank that donate at a 150000 a couple months ago. a fan zone will also be built next to the stadium. a move that one over many a skeptic. i certainly think about it. so from the looked day we know with the schools and the housing fair that i will, i, and i think, you know, if you come back in 15 as time this area i imagine will be fully renovated and regenerate at new castle is an ideal location. the city desperately needs investment, especially in housing,
1:52 pm
and there's plenty of land for building and desirable areas. but getting hold of it is not so easy. didn't need to buy a football club to do that. there are appropriate channels through which to go. but of course, those channels are bureaucratic, they take a long period of time, it's much easier. he can say, hey, come to the game on saturday. it's a great welf building relationships. it's a great way of establishing a dialogue. it's a great way of influencing the benefits that come from owning a football club are also evident in manchester. man city is owned by the united arab emirates. they bought land from the city and a central location and built 1600 apartments. richard golding and his colleagues took a closer look at the deal. what they found shocked them. things that they released the quite low, right? so all in all that was lease for just from the 5000000 pounds. the city says it couldn't get a better price. the club owners will now profit for years to come. we estimate his
1:53 pm
round time 1000000 palsy and red is being paid to them, which is a big cash flow like a lot of investors were brailey. jump at the chance for them. so, owning a football club can open doors at home and even abroad if the club is a winner. the saudi arabians are in the business of financial or economic in here, a return on investment, or maybe a political return on investment. daniel spragans is disappointed in his city. the way she sees it, newcastle has succumbed to saudi sports washing. oh, but he's not about to jump on that bandwagon. bring dancing is all about power or creativity and rhythm. this acrobatic dance was born in the 1970s on the streets of the bronx in new york city. but then no one would have ever guessed that these moves would one day become an olympic discipline. now
1:54 pm
