french president emmanuel michael. so a proposing a test that is the way it was done we were worried because he is. known as the destructor known as a tweeteter. notice somebody who breaks convention has already waded into the tory leadership with an article that he published in the interview that he gave to the sun newspaper on saturday saying that. his preferred candidate to replace. the tour at the current tory leader and prime minister theresa may is boris johnson. and of course he's also. said that he is in favor of a no deal this when the united kingdom is in flux. and is still in this political - poss -- web parliament. is in process of housing missed a first date of the twenty ninth of march i'm having now obtained another date on which to leave. the eu the twenty seven of the e. u. member states the thirty first of october so i think a very solemn presence getting the

measure. of water state visits which is the highestst privilege of that the uk government can afford. is about. this very much on a pump and circumstance day before a very different day tomorrow which will be about politics and business and will have many more precious than we witnessed tonight outside buckingham palace. let's not forget he did tweet that the mayor of london sadiq khan was a stone cold loser before you touch down. over in london and now as you said today was filled with the royal engagements what's on the agenda for the u. s. president tomorrow. what's on the agenda is a business breakfast with very many prestigious business leaders then he will actually meets with the outgoing. prime minister and conservative party leader. theresa may of course we know that she has announced that she will be stepping down as tory leader and effectively will become a caretaker prime minister. of this very friday and although

the official starting gun to the tory leadership has not yet been fine that is to be five next. monday we already have thirteen people who think that they are the best place. to replace her - no i there's no way we're going to forget the fact that just before. he and forced one actually touch down he criticized the mayor of london sadiq khan -- and as you can hear some people alone protest so but that while hundreds here before although i should say that there was some well wishes and supporters. on the other side of where we are standing but yes in on doing future between them mass id con the first muslim -- met all of london and a lot of bad blood between the two men and i think that this was not -- appreciated because that is very much a breach of protocol but i said he breach the practical by wading into the tory leadership on saturday -- i'm talking about

briggs is and who his preferred candidate is so we that was some said that he would talk about brings it. up but he did not do so he chose the safer route -- and in a presidential saw the will be appreciated by the queen herself hussein many. u. s. presidents this is only the floods u. s.. in two has made a state visit under the reign of queen elizabeth. and normal yes my heart to think when one has to be shutting down was a but there wilill be many more like himim tomorrow. we think that might be a a quarr of a million protest is what we willll be tomorrow in trafalgar square of course just at the end of white tulle where a lot of ministries of foreign office. and also course downing street the official residence of the prime minister is. also i should just add finally that there is a press conference that we will have between -- theresa may. and of donald trump and of course we'll be covering that. all the protests everything happening tomorrow including the

press conferencece news anything is the benedict would be going cross you throughout the day here on five twenty four thank you very much for that update from buckingham palace. in other news saddam has witntnessed it the worst violene sincee president omar al bashir stepped down in april according to the central committee of sydney's doctors at least thirty people were killed after security forces stormed a protest camp in the capital. people were seen fleeing the streets and the person done far worse in khartoum the main protest group has accused the ruling military council offer massacre. as a kid the citity near the defense ministry early in the day there were reports that at least a hundred and sixteen people. were wounded for more on what's going on we can go across and speak to a regional correspondent carolyn thompson in and i will be caroline. what's the latest your hearing. yes so what we are hearing that even just recently at twewenty minutes ago they y were stitill sound d of gunfire i being heard in differerent parts o of croucg now..

now caroline they sit in has been largely peaceful throughout one is change exactly. well if you can either go talk broke down between the military and the protesters. i she we we want to be a villain government takeover this transitional period they have people in mind and and the work. new speaker to run at the new country a democratic country morrow currently the military who were part of a moral issue to resume are the ones who are running the transitional government. and baby i think they are not willing to step down and to the protesters and people who are part of the machine -- and everything that known for human rights if you. and for really conontrolling and the society and with the opening in the economic. struggle that really began to protest the december that those people are still in charge is not acceptable to the protester. and so this location which is

justified the army headquarters the military headquarters is a very strategic location for them and a lot of here that if they moved off of that location -- leverage to move them to get what they demand that i'm not quite a protester taking g him o call on i i'm out to o the stre. even k knowing that there is soi found the gunfire happening and in order to stand that ideal the military and what they're trying to achieve. okay karen thank you very much for that update kenan thompson reportingg elelections. after my dear so he's like 134% of the vote leapfrogging partners in his coalition. soon she will soon again essentially if it's clear responsible solution is not

basically these two structures have collapsed european elections so a put eight point 4% for i live a pretty cal and social party got six p point 3% which is a bit it would have been impossible to picked up.. at just a few years ago -- you ve all of these kind of heavy weights in the in the lre m. party and peas and others making an appeal now far. to become members to jump ships at this is as a minister in -- in michael's government basically saying calling on mayors around the country who are parart of the republican party to to to to come over on and joined the sid. other members of a you be cannot jack bouvier basically saying i have forget about it and you know you're you're you stop trying to take advantage of this proposal situation -- you know if there's a lot of push back as well and social media and of course and you have the far right basically doing the same thing as well nine depend. on social media saying at an alternative micron is possible we're extending the hand of friendship her niece -- the even

more far rice maria might show up and talk about a grand coalition between. john and the recently re branded hassle moments you now the national front party. at meanwhile you also have the the green's ecologist who did very well 13% the kind of a surgeon knew way lies like that surviving profound right at their also being courted. on that but they're talking about perhahaps providing a real alternative on the left and in and that's not a new idea this is an article from twenty seventeen thing could ecology or and i suppose that the environment be at the miracle solution far left will be sold at the social. party has collapsed so any hope that there is for the left is probably now via -- green green politics a green politics if you like but a lot of skepticism there as well from. attempts by the hype of the amounts to also courts the greens and there have been many- politicians we had a big. again i suppose you you you can see the attempts to appeal to everybody i'm in the process the risk i suppose of not appearing very coherent this is one that green app appalled politician

esther been besides saying. they they keep sort of i'm making for tatius looks in our direction and inviting us to the dinner table but i'm not going to eat. soup and not even with a very long spoon because it's probably full of diesel socks. life is it anyway so you can see that that's a toughie disagrees. max -- james -- to report about how passes tuning to city off. of of rich and poor ghettos. that's right this is a reporter the came out today by a french - urbanism research institute cold at the i. a. u. on it really confirms what i think everybody understands to be the trends already that we're there are neighborhoods and to the west of paris. and in the west of the city that are just getting of wealthier and wealthier in terms of inhabitants because the property prices are going up consistentl. so for example in since nineteen ninety nine property prices of troubles and a lot of these -- more i look three parts of the city and incomes across the board of only doubled which

means that basically you own that the incompetencee gettingng richer and richeher. and at the same time you have a whole n neighborhoods more to te east of the city at where it is the exact it is the equal and opposite trying to polarization. that is more and more marked as says this headline here on indeed as some in a eight who behind this research paper according as an infernal spiral. between two thousand one and twenty fifteen and meet the median income in these neighborhoods has gone down every single year what you also have is more more people moving into these neighborhoods where. i'm new here i've migrants who don't necessarily have a very stable or study situation so you have neighborhoods where people are in real economic difficulty. and as so you you have this kind of increasing -- fork iuess no one film that really has brough. attention to don and it's mentioned in this article in the mold is limited les miserables - by a director at large the and he he he's talking about this phone as being a sort of an alararm.. sounding the alarm basically before things explode again that

we're coming back. and basically i i'm an apartment in michael has said that there will be a screening of that fil. the visa policies taking it seriously this is an attempt to kind of put the spotlight on just. how -- even the hope bods thehe economic and sociaial situation they'l'll be coming in these but in the in the call for use in certain neighborhoods the this isis problem in paris is gone fm bad to worse i d don't know if you've noticed it in your neighborhood but also. every evening i see you know middle age women who don't necessarily look homeless rummaging through the trash cans and shocking the city is. gone this was absololutely thats okay i think i i i i i another example of the same trends of kind of a the rich getting richer the poor getting poorer and we we we know that from many many different studies -- james thank you very much for
