have got their own year is just the peak of many different protests that have been a cure in throughout the years there's a lot of people their families their friends that have gathered here for what they see as their peak to kill the nation of what they've been fighting for all these years. just three weeks before the steel referendum. get an answer ready to board they have been fighting for this for a long time and this is a skill a distillation of. the off independent this movement has been a regime for the past five years. because along government announced the referendum on september the six the very next day the spanish hardcore bund the move for the referendum is still set to go ahead at the start of next month in catalonia insist it will declare independence within forty eight hours if there is a yes vote. when the first time purely symbolic referendum took place in catalonia that was in two thousand and fourteen your thirty's in madrid weren't

exactly they slammed it as being unconstitutional and they even threatened to kick the legendary barcelona football club out of the national top division over that didn't scare catalan leaders who insisted the region would secede anyway in march of this year to do it up the pressure and even bond council and officials from old in public office over organization of the referendum but spain fears the vote for a number of reasons cuts alone again independence and spain would lose almost seven percent of its territory and the richest part to boot it will also lose more than seven million people or a fifth of its tax earnings twenty percent of exports they would also go as indeed one third of spain's olympic medal. in addition catalonia a year round tourist destination attracts a quarter of all spain's holiday makers growing dependence failings have been growing for a number of years with protests of pushing the message through colorful headline grabbing rallies.
3:04 pm
and i think shafiq from scotland's radical independence can bang great belief that europe is fragmenting too to major issues you're experiencing the latest forms of fragmentation and i think the root cause of this is the economic crisis of two thousand and eight as the steady measures that we've seen t. place what's happening is that people are looking to have more control over the leaves are looking to have much more of a c. in terms of how their lives are run as state back against what they see as
3:05 pm
corruption taking place at the highest levels of government and of course as a result of that a national movements and movements for independence can tap to not take hold and frustration tap into that type of energy and we saw that in twenty fourteen and scotland we see it now in catalonia all politics is unstable just know. the u.n. security council is expected to vote on a resolution on whether to impose even tougher sanctions on north korea following its latest nuclear test counties kelly moment has the latest from new york. the world is watching the u.n. security council as people are aware north korea and the united states have been exchanging threats for the last few weeks and now north korea has tested a hydrogen bomb now at this point russia and china are calling for a diplomatic solution to the tensions on the korean peninsula and we've heard
3:06 pm
russian president vladimir putin speaking in a phone call with german chancellor merkel talk about how the actions of north korea may be threatening global security. who have strongly condemned young's violations of the u.n. security council's resolutions the need is new to these actions pose a serious threat to regional peace and security the leaders agreed to dissolution to the crisis can be reached through diplomatic means only for the resumption of talks involving all interested potencies now the first draft of the resolution that was proposed was rather harsh but we understand that a more mild version of this resolution will be put forward in the u.n. security council the first draft of the resolution called for an oil embargo which would essentially have outlawed and forbid any country from exporting oil or natural gas to the democratic people's republic of korea however the newer version of the resolution does not have an a full embargo but it simply caps the amount of oil and natural gas that the d.p.
3:07 pm
r. k. can import now the original draft that was circulated by the united states called for a specific targeting of kim jong un freezing his assets forbidding him from traveling however the new draft of the resolution that is being put forward at the u.n. security council does not specifically target the leader of the democratic people's republic of korea and the resolution goes on to support the six party talks so this resolution which will go before the united nations security council there's a very good chance it could be passed by the security council now that it's been adjusted and it no longer calls for a full oil and natural gas embargo. and it looks like the call for a diplomatic solution and negotiations and six party talks that has been the position of russia and china from day one seems to have prevailed. we discussed the upcoming vote with craig earlier who's senior market analyst at a london. think it's imposed interest to return to the negotiating table and
3:08 pm
perhaps this is a sign that the u.s. is now willing to go down this route but also may lay it's going to be the responsibility of all the countries involved in order to achieve this not just the u.s. and not just of course north korea and china are both the of the two major players in this and let's be honest this is a strategic issue let's not pretend that this isn't a major factor in these negotiations this is a major factor in the reason why the u.s. and russia and china are not necessarily on the same page that's why diplomatic solution is so important because the last thing we want it's not about escalation in tensions between the u.s. and north korea let's face it the last thing we want is the relationship between the u.s. and china and russia to fall apart because the more stable this relationship is the more stable the global environment those. more than a thousand wives and children of suspected eisel fighters are awaiting their fate
3:09 pm
in a refugee camp in iraq after the terrorist groups of a major defeat artie's been among the first news networks to access the facility our correspondent of cent is the following report which contains the first on screen interviews with people at the camp. oh my yes much of the more i. get says china. because it's because it is such a dumb was a victim but also to the earlier this year this woman's husband was killed in mosul he wasn't one of the good guys he was in a slum extent fighter until you know it was important i guess for that visit. with the full of that they had nowhere left to run the wives and children of presumed isis fighters finally surrendered the biggest concern now is safety and security the u.n. has asked us to blur these women's faces not to reveal their names and most importantly
3:10 pm
not to tell anyone where they're being held because isis so do a lot of hatred in iraq they spilled a lot of blood and there are people here who would come over just to throw a grenade across the fence we film these women. in order to avoid the necessary attention for their own safety the first thing many told us is that they never wanted to be here in the first place. like the killing. them women. conceded that reasoning at the gun use english effectively teaches that with them they're not but. almost all of these woman a foreign as a dead giveaway isis encouraged bringing families over there terrified they
3:11 pm
fear the iraqi army they're even scared of aid workers and the goal is to. get the first. can. you tell us. what you did with a new. system school just does the fact she's a national she gives out is the registrants unit. china shouldn't have to have some of the one on the any such as if she had said yes until a business and then you will of us most me just as if it's not pretty it's not. good to have my alice in yet another. young. woman we found in russian speaking but the majority of turkish there are also. blue eyed europeans africans. asians americans many iraqis
3:12 pm
see them as something alien too far gone. too deeply to forget the ideology. that alas you. keep. them for doing. nothing if you think for a moment i feel i need to be i'm not a young person if i'm pluckily. that much ok that. you have a problem is the kids there are families from dozens and dozens of different countries currently held by iraqi forces among them more than a thousand children and many of the orphans many won't be able to tell you their names because of trauma or age and getting them out is paramount.
3:13 pm
that's the main thing. and now when you can but for many. family groups including the u.n. are working around the clock to establish identities but it's slow and dangerous work it falls to the woman to contacts relatives let them know they're still alive or not it is my opinion. of the indian government in the moment. but some of these women may be telling the truth others may not they've broken laws just by being here some even took up arms and thought it will be up to cool it's in iraq in their home countries to establish guilt in the children they recently
3:14 pm
hostages in a war they don't even understand or i guess d.m. . from iraq. a new round of strikes will hit fronts tomorrow as unions there continued to show their rage at emmanuel micron's new labor reforms the latest poll shows sixty percent of those quizzed are worried about the president's plans which is due to come into force next week. has more from paris. his popularity really slumped over the summer he's now got the lowest approval ratings according to one poll of any french president at this point into their presidential terms and one of the biggest reasons for this slump in the ratings is the labor law reforms that he wants to push through that's going to make it easier if he manages to push them through to hire and fire workers especially for small and medium businesses he was elected on a pro-business platform and he wants to give small and medium businesses greater
3:15 pm
flexibility here in france to allow small companies to bypass trade union agreements and here in lies the problem the trade unions here aren't happy about these reforms they see all this as an attempt to weaken their influence and to diminish their power here in france where they traditionally have rather a lot of it french workers very highly protected with the labor laws as they currently stand but there is high unemployment here in france that is something that emanuel macron has said that he is determined to tackle by pushing through these changes to the labor laws to morrow is set to be the biggest test of his presidency so far because the two big trade unions here they are going to be calling a general strike and they're going to be demonstrating on the streets of many cities here in france including paris against these reforms emanuel micron himself remains unequivocal he says that he has
3:16 pm
a strong mandate in order to push through these reforms in order to implement these changes to the law and on friday he had a thing or two to say about the people that oppose him take a listen. i will be absolutely determined i will not yield in any way not to sarkozy. not to extremists. and actually the french governments. and tried to backpedal a little bit on those comments by saying that actually he was referring to former presidents over the past thirty years. and chirac who didn't have the courage to push through these reforms they were always watered down in some way and he said that courage takes great risk nevertheless on the socialist leader here in france he had a quick witted response to. take a listen to what men and sean had to say. cynics because all in the streets on
3:17 pm
twelve and twenty third. alcoholics people who are nothing illiterate slackers the declarations of love from a crown to the french are multiplying well it's not all the trade unions who are going to be protesting here in france tomorrow emanuel micron's team spent a lot of the summer courting some of the trade unions here in france and making peace offerings and it appears to have partly worked one leader of a rather more aggressive trade union here has said that they will not be participating in the strike to morrow and that there's no point starting a fight when it's already over so you can see my team has been using this sort of divide and conquer approach towards these reforms towards the trade unions we're going to find out to morrow if that approach has worked we've got reaction from
3:18 pm
human rights civil liberties and. this is not the first time the market has used insulting rhetoric and that is just carrying out. also showed the same uses same kind of rhetoric you multiple times before the remember the people or the illiterate us we're speaking about when talking about the factory worker is that the way you make fun of the african immigrants are drowning in the sea and so we see it differently if there is a pattern from coming from the money went back home that he has no respect whatsoever to do with whoever doesn't agree with him for him to show so much aggressiveness towards a very defiant public opinion shows that emanuel mccoy is not actually governing the country for the best interests of the population but actually implementing your pin directives of those ahead but he may defend the if the employer is a federation and the other point is that emanuel quit money when macor forgot to dot he's actually uniting all the opposition against him. she is miss america
3:19 pm
contest may have revealed the contestants have much more in common with politicians than you might think and in fact can sometimes even be more rational in their thinking correspondance mirror can you say with a look at modern beauty queens. well miss north dakota was crowned miss america two thousand and eighteen in atlantic city last night but that was hardly the most interesting part of the night contestants were asked were asked highly controversial political questions centered around president trump's decision making ranging from charlottesville and confederate monuments to the paris climate of ports and even trump russia collusion one hundred ninety five pairs agreement the u.s. is withdrawing from the agreement citing negligible environmental effects and negative economic impact good decision bad decision over half of americans favored leaving confederates that she's in place while others want them removed keep or get rid of
3:20 pm
them demonstration. white supremacists and the k.k.k. in charlottesville virginia turned violent president said there was shared blame with quote very fine people on both sides were there the miss america organization is a staunch rival of the missile a universe organization which president own for nearly two decades and it seems like the animosity is still lingers on the miss america organization took a very strong anti trump stance last night which was made evident in the q. and a round with questions framed in such a way as to pressure contestants into condemning trump but some like miss missouri jennifer davis resisted when celebrity judge jordin sparks asked the delegate remiss if she believed president trump was guilty or innocent of colluding with russia her response was far from expected which take a look multiple investigations into whether trump's campaign colluded with russia on the election well did they hear the jury guilty or innocent and please explain
3:21 pm
your verdict right now i'd have to say and i say it because not enough information has been revealed we are cancer we are still investigating this and i think we should investigate it too explicit. now miss missouri's answer. comes as a surprise especially when the liberal circus in washington is constantly harping on about alleged russian interference and russian collusion without any evidence whatsoever so perhaps and maxine waters and the conspiracy theorists over at c.n.n. an innocent see should consider watching beauty pageants for political analysis since beauty queens have just proven to be more intelligent and level headed than all of us congress. three civilians have been killed and two in hospital following a taliban raid in afghanistan's eastern province of our warning you may find these pictures coming out this being the attack itself was carried out by afghan special forces on saturday night all five victims came from the same family the mother and

a safe haven for all of his government struggles to cope with the more than eleven thousand people that have crossed into canada from the u.s. since the start of this year the pace in recent weeks has reached up to two hundred fifty people a day many of them fleeing the us out of fear of donald trump's crackdown on immigrants but many have slammed canada's refugee friendly message saying that it has given false hope to those streaming into the country not only are they not safe from expulsion from canada the country has actually ramped up its deportations in response to the influx and apparently this is old hat for canada even when it comes to sending people to unstable countries according to reuters for years canada has been deporting hundreds of people to countries dangerous for civilians since january of two thousand and fourteen canada has sent two hundred forty nine people to eleven countries that the government has suspended or deferred deportations to because of the apparent risks to civilians that reportedly includes over one hundred people to iraq sixty two to the democratic republic of congo and forty three to afghanistan all war torn countries now the spike in deportations comes as
3:25 pm
the country has been scrambling to deal with an influx of asylum seekers and is facing a record number of migrants and apparently at least part of their solution has been to send people back to the countries from which they fled so as to tones down the notion that canada is open to all and to the south the us gets increasingly less migrant friendly those fleeing war are seemingly left without a lifeline in north america. ok that's all for now about with the latest news and updates on our big stories of the top of the hour so you know.
