the few hours trump is seeking another mandate in the white house the indicators are reportedly looking good. the controversial president let's make an almond who's followed the trump administration. every step of the way for the crowd a coal some white house correspondent joining us live for the good evening to you one of the predictors saying for a second trump term right now. well look at the polls that's exist right now and there are some that are very indicative right now they do real cool too good -- for the incumbent president of course always with the cabin at that everybody got it so badly wrong in twenty sixteen when almost no poll in the whole world predicted a donald trump victory. bus indirect match ups nationally between trump and all of those democratic candidates that's all routes in the race right now will donald trump doesn't look. old that's good in his chances of being being reelected on local that good add to that some internal polling that actually came from the donald trump campaign itself. and that was leaked a few weeks

ago shows in a potential match up with the former vice president joe biden the donald trump would lose pretty much across the board. in the swing states of the united states of which florida of course is one of them we've heard that tale before and i was in twenty sixteen when hillary clinton was expected to win those swing states. as well but this time around twelve donald trump still is going to sound and look confident tonight here in orlando his will be a message of a presidency that according to him has been so far one of the most successful. in the history of the united states he will of course talent the american economy the fact that the jobless numbers have been going down steadily here in the united states but more than anything. it's going to benefit the back it's going to be a bit of a policy for donald trump supporters and they will be at least twenty thousand and side of this basketball arena you see behind me. usually the home of the orlando magic in the nba and the basketball league in the united

states it would be absolutely packed with some supporters tonight. indeed no matter how you vote it sounds like it is going to be a just a quite -- and events -- you mention the economy of the sea a positive thing to trample- looking upon. all the any particular bumps that you might see coming up on the horizon for trump. well there is still some promises that have not been caps this is a president who doesn't like to tell his voters and his supporters that he has kept pretty much all of his promises from the campaign trail. and he is largely rights and take care of for example the fact that so the the united states exited the nuclear deal with iran that's just one example. that the united states exit the paris climate change agreement is another example but then there are those bumps in the road and those would be the promises not kept by the president the biggest one of the mole. is probably the fact that that wall he promised on the border between mexico and the united states is no where near being built so tonight we expect him to mention that and to talk

about. his a hard stance on illegal immigration and emigration generally that's a something that works well with the crowd like this one a crowd that's made up of what is. tends to be cold his base his most loyal supporters those who voted for him in twenty sixteen and undoubtedly will be voting for him again in twenty twenty that's the so called red meats that he'll be throwing at his supporters -- here in the arena in orlando -- so there is still quite a bit to be done for the president to really keep all of those promises and that is why presidents tend to ask for another four years they tend to say that that work it's not quite done yet. and that they need a second term in office remember that a one term president is a very very rare thing indeed the last time around was george bush senior who only spent four years in the white house. this president also wants to spend eighty s. in washington. image of the red meat being thrown as a very vivid one philip thank you very much indeed looking forward to

finally breaking his silence boris johnson the former foreign secretary and mail of london has regularly courted controversy in his political career. which may be why his campaign team has been keen for him to avoid media attention in this race for the premiership he's been criticized for refusing to participate in a televised debate on sunday. and avoiding a question and answer session and parliament the day off to woods. we've been talking about brexit for twenty five minutes now and where is boris if his team would allow i'm out to debate with. five pretty friendly colleagues- housing an affair with twenty seven european countries he should be here to answer that very question. but despite his uncharacteristic reticence johnson is fall ahead of his rivals. in the first round of the leadership contest johnson won the backing of a hundred and fourteen and keys in the conservative party. eckley at seventy one votes more than his nearest rival and foreign secretary successor jeremy hunt.

johnson or home arrive in the race agreed to throw her support behind him. johnson has vowed to take the united kingdom out of the european union by the thirty first october deadline set for brexit. deal or no deal. successive votes will knock mornings of the ballot finca until there were only two left at which point the voters put to some a hundred and sixty thousand tory party members. the next prime minister is expected to be announced in july mrs. not story because we watch at the development of it more analysis to come close to joining island corresponded very shortly. next there are reports of an ethnic massacre in mali at least forty one people have been killed. in an attack launched by memo to banks the matter of your so the victims are mainly ethnic dog owns it happened in the villages of your and again the funny. a correspondent from posthumous has more on this. there's been a course for

resources between the various people who are in this area where the state house abandoned them that's the second. condition that we have to mention -- number third condition is the influence on the which this house becoming this has been becoming more violent this the influx of terrorist elements. and their homes what's what's significant about the latest spate of these tapes from top violence. is the fact that there is a lot more loss of life. previously a couple of people were killed already bad enough now it's in the dawson's on this is to do with the use of i. k. forty seven whereas previously people would use how may governments which obviously are also leave operculum all fewer people. forty one so far is the death toll in that incident to imali review more on that of course as we get it. michelle a platinum is being questioned by french police of allegations of corruption of the wording of the twenty twenty two fifa world cup to qatar. it's leads the platoon is but

point to be at brought in for questioning to as part of this investigation psychoses because former president. of france we should not in his ban from football is is due to expire shortly. i'm. do you think it's likely that he may return to the game or is this thing just basically to tarnish now by the scandal that he's lived through. i'm always -- quite surprised about is that the people are still giving up about him as especially people and at your way far. and we're still there everybody saying well let me get did a good job and it was. unfair is maybe not a good what but he did they would like some of them would like him to come back the question is does he wanted to see himself as and at the moment because he had so many -- trouble only about this famous photo especially. does he still wants to come back or does he wants to do something completely else because he used to work frustrated about how it all went. with whimsy on both of those and

currency will also permit around one billion people in the world who don't use banks to be able to shop transfer and save money with the click of their phone. at select exchange shops cash will be able to be converted into digital libra. and to avoid fluctuations like those that have plagued bit coin the currency will be pegged to other major currencies but such a global crypto currency could also raise major regulatory issues. there's an interesting regulatory questions that pop pop first late facebook is a global company are they creating a global currency. that's a little bit difficult to manage -- we have no universal definition of money actually across the entire planet yes every single. of country seems to have slightly different interpretation of what money actually is. to try and warn of regulatory and technical issues facebook has consulted with multiple governments and set up a consortium to run libra. over two dozen corporations of signed on including visa master card over and pay pal.

that is announcement of course opens the door to a flood of concerns about security privacy regulation that would galecki. and facebook still hasn't won back the public's trust after a series of recent scandals. i mean facebook's infrastructure and technology -- will allow the the the currency to be more stable will allow many more transactions per second for example will allow more stability but the way this is monitored is going to require a lot more especially in the face. in the face of all these investigations into privacy concerns. moving on it's day two of the paris air show in the race for orders continues between boeing and airbus. boeing someone ends to a sales drop sparked by seven thirty seven max crisis british airways is parent company i ag signed a letter of intent. to buy up to two hundred seven thirty seven max planes this despite the fact that the model is still grounded worldwide. at list prices the order would be worth twenty four billion dollars i eugene is our lines

include iberia wailing and air lingus. noted that it had negotiated a substantial discount. nevertheless it's a big vote of confidence for the embattled plane maker at this year's paris air show. one of the big focus points at this air show is how to make air travel more eco friendly. electric planes have been on display in the what was it this is senator bryan quit has been taking a look at some of them. at twenty nineteen paris air show big focus is on the climat. commercial aviation accounts for roughly 2% of all carbon emissions but that figure is set to rise as traffic increases. big companies like airbus are getting ready it's partnering with engine from soft front to work on a hybrid electric plane to replace a large part of its fleet in roughly fifteen years. that's an ambitious target. today one kilogram of battery doesn't provide as much energy as one can -- con of fuel. so we have to expect.

making technologies news stick new technologies. start ups aren't waiting that long french company botero has just unveiled its casio plane powered by a six cylinder internal combustion engine and two full electric motors. it hopes to be in the skies by. twenty twenty two and all electrics are coming in small sizes as well. here at the air show evey ation as unveiled its prototype of the allies aircraft powered by three electric motors and a three thousand five hundred kilogram battery the israeli company hopes alice will revolutionize the commuter air travel. fully electric commercial passenger travel is still likely decades away but emission standards are tightening even while traffic continues to rise. ubs says even the hybrid market could be worth a hundred seventy eight billion dollars within the next twenty years. an electric sector that's preparing for take off. transfer the brine quinn on the runway i'd love because it. let's take a look now at financial markets this session

of major gains here in europe after the european central bank president suggested the ecb will provide more stimulus if inflation doesn't pick up. us markets also climbing for a second day we have a similar picture over on wall street. investors reacting positively to donald trump who said that he's agreed to hold an extended meeting with chinese president xi jinping on trade tensions next week. france has unveiled a new economic reform that would make it more difficult for the unemployed to claim benefits in for companies to issue short term contracts. the government hopes that it will reduce unemployment and save billions of euros but it's opposed by both unions and employers was in corning has details. at the french prime minister's office on tuesday morning it was all hands on deck to introduce a major unemployment reform. for the government the changes -- about encouraging employment in bringing the jobless rate down 27% by. twenty twenty two first to get employers to turn away from the increasingly use a short term

contracts they've set up a bonus malice program. but the move has been met with much grumbling so it'll only be applied to certain sectors like the food industry and hospitality. only businesses employing more than eleven people will be affected by the reform but they are already furious. at sony yes it's true that there are transgressions. but this change will either be useless or even worse it will discourage businesses from hiring alone through all. the government has also change the amount of time needed to be able to qualify for unemployment benefits. increasing the current threshold of having worked for four months over the past twenty eight months up to six months over the past two years. that could make some two hundred thousand people not eligible for unemployment benefits trade unions of called the changes unacceptable the reform will come into effect from november. seems like bad economic unemployment reform is already off to a rocky start month we'll

see a how it develops over the next few weeks and months it would be french politics it was a rocky start with it. thank you very much indeed i could with the mobile this is great to see. it's close to the james street. wrapped up ready to go meet which can do you said that started with something -- fairly somber of course -- having more sees -- death in custody in egypt -- the u. encoding for enquiring independent investigation to what happened he supported saying that his death was a result of a what they described as torture the packages that he was kept in. egypt's of this the government has a different story to tell -- tell us what you can find lots of comment on this in the last twenty four hours -- on social media mark at this is belle crew who is middle east correspondent far at the independent newspaper the u. k. she's been treating a lot about this because she's cover the whole thing since the beginning -- back. to twenty eleven witnesses said more she was left slumped on the floor of his courtroom cage for at least twenty minutes before being given for state he complained of a lack of

treatment for several illnesses. friends and colleagues calling is. murder the one is calling for transplant probe so of course all of the ingredients of a story of a of a death that would a good trigger a huge amount of control controversy and op sash. and bell true continuing here with a long fred that's worth reading for people interested in her take on things wanted more sees legacy is a complex one and we should not forget the great shades democratically elected us to bike who. disappeared treated so badly in jail it likely meant to torture but his year in power was also tricky and sometimes dark. chapter in egypt's history and she goes on to detail not on her facebook venture share this. almost exactly seven years ago to the day facebook memories reminded her of these filters that she had taken in tahrir square celebrating more sees wind in the twenty twelve presidential election. so seven years a lot happened has happened in egypt since the. this is evin hill formerly of human rights watch i also commenting on this in in a tweet that was shared a loss on mine detecting costly former egyptian president. morsi should be understood in the context of the egyptian

authorities systematic and years on isolation and mistreatment of tens of thousands. of political detainees was was this put the spotlight on not. at lots of common sense from woman or see sympathizers. angry with the african union with the u. n. condemnation of a of see see what to the united states and champions of democracy do when egypt's first elected president got to pull s. it's it's reignited all of those frustrations this is a well known egyptian footballer. by the name of abu trichet who at is just one of the many who have been sending prayers and good wishes to moment marcy's family and others. that it's lots of tributes on my mark indeed this a personal loss and then the oversee the more public aspects of this and clearly seen both sides about that. i'm on the public issue though with mostly staff politicians chiming in that time and turkey's president and chief among them russia type of that's right just a quick look at some of those reactions he to write a paper due in on twitter basically calling -- woman more see a martyr one might say that he's perhaps using at the moment

as well to be in the spotlight as a leader of the muslim world but certainly. i'm sure some of those faults are all of our very sincere from his part as well calling. more see a marker on twitter and it's been picked up elsewhere and of course he was. there was a ceremony in its tumble funeral prayer in its emptiness and she with a are doing very much present then in it pakistan for example. i below will be taught zardari of dr political dynasty over there like some people's party. is saying this you will remember my words do not kill the lines of your nation last you will encounter a similar fate but the dogs of your enemies. so it really ignited. so much comment across the muslim world i'm well beyond. next -- to images of angela merkel the german chancellor a causing some questions over her out will be. i think we have these images so if we could roll at these pictures of anglo market this afternoon in berlin. at this mark was when she was with the ukrainian president of lot amir the landscape you can see here. she really did not look well at all.

and during at the the the naonal anthems being played. looks like she could in fact and collapse she steadied herself a one point with her hands but people quite concerned about that the health and well being of angela merkel on the strength of those images on it did generate a huge one comment on speculation online. as is often the case when when politicians seem a little bit on well top into jungle gym growth opportunity clinton and others in the past. and then of course people see that as a symbol of their or stability of their power whatever and of course on the market is having political difficulties at the moment so these are images you'd rather have avoided. torch avella talking about how will relaying that aid the video is authentic people were kind of fat. they did double checked out and and merkel they did then speak to the media and said look. i had boobs too much he's got over he's a drug free glass of water and i was fine they're spiegel says it did happened a few years ago as well in mexico she seems to be props. with sensitive to the full course body language of politicians so scrutinize

nowadays that image is like not. overall fast. so let's hope that mrs merkel from the court remains in good health yes. finally auto mechanics recreate renaissance paintings i just have to be that solely because yeah this is this one seems a bit surreal i just prefer. to have the stories of politics and you can do whatever you wish so we love you that let's turn to fat and useless at and but this is inside actually this is quite. grace i think it's a photographer called freddie fabbri's he always wanted to pay homage the renaissance monsters so for some reason he decided to take take i at mechanics. and have them pose as renaissance paintings. i it's kind of a bizarre juxtaposition. i think it works and then of course you have to have a few pairs thrown in. and and this is my favorite one it's kind of the i don't know what's going on there sponsor in the works. but it works or mention the works better in the works. okay with that. james thank you very much indeed great to see aj. with with. the celts megantic bands

fantastic stuff thank you james user reports things -- to with the business as well great to see. under thank you for watching too because of that year it's not worthwhile please stay with us more
