this is. the first time. the u.s. led coalition. including children. is

likely to be fairly muted celebrations for the german chancellor a parliamentary diminished there's been a search for the right wing now with more of the result some reaction it's life. very good morning welcome to our studio on the banks of the river spray here in berlin and i'll start as i mean to go on with a cliche there's a wind blowing across the studio is that a wind of political change could well be anglo america has secured that four straight terms german chancellor as expected

a christian democrats getting the most votes but it's really in retrospect quite a bad result for that also the social democrats suffered what's been described as a crushing election defeat only twenty percent of the support for them the worst result since world war two but for the right wing euro skeptics will turn to germany body this election was a major breakthrough they gained enough votes for the first time to enter the national parliament. thank. the cd he would have hoped for better results but we mustn't forget that we achieved all strategic objectives we have a mandate to form a new government and no government can be formed against all without us. through today is a difficult day for social democracy we missed out on our electoral go after losing

our central region and we lost the federal election i. thought you did friends this is a big day in history of our party we've made it we've entered the bundestag and we will change this country to achieve what happened today at six o'clock is that evolution but despite their gains the victory of the alternative in germany party getting those extra votes is left a lot of their opponents pretty unhappy about this. i i i i i this was the scene yesterday evening people rallying across germany against the right wing party the protest the shouting down to nationalist slogans outside the very same building where the f.t. leaders were celebrating as you can understand what was a great result for the political fall of the post-election demonstrations.

with was yes was. this morsi story very much based on was not listening to me i mean elsewhere told us you know what happened with the immigration policy missing the left bank of america decision to lessen i'm sorry million refugees i think i may be seen to be having scared about being provocative in the international i. i was was was i. was. was. i. i

was i was i. believe it's just i know it's been being or i think the main st louis protest is that i found out tonight. thank you really i can show you some of the fact that they talk here and some pretty weird ones actually they have been calling people that not only. the one thing that springs to mind when you see all these very angry he is it may be quite frightening experience for any elected

now national politician from the f.t. that i'm up to see you just have to do that damn he does it for nothing is i'm just saying yes forgotten a little bit in this democracy and there's always the other thing in the moment has nothing at least that he states you know about each case you see this migration of the sun and see your oh yes i see this is the it was good to see you know you weekend all those topics such as only has one answer to me it is any good to see what are we going to do to me that in their own opinion but then just exactly there are that he gets that in there and they want any of that they actually want to squeak this evening out celebration was one of the undies no less which said that first they ignore you then they laugh at you then they might see you and then you say. ok let's so bring a couple of guests now first of all familiar face for you are billing correspondent

peter all of a very busy last night covering the elections that i'm sure you have a few questions for by the guess which is he who is the chairman of the bill in branch of the alternative for germany party we were just looking at the celebrations us number one if you were in those policy here in berlin protesters outside how did you feel about these mixed emotions a great night but it was a great night but this is nothing new for a very strong left freshest scene in berlin which are always fighting t.f.t. and this is a normal situation in berlin and was only about a thousand protesters in the end more than six. a million people voted for us we didn't spoil the evening for you excuse and we didn't spoil the evening you know we didn't spoil the evening because it's a normal process that you can demonstrate you know in a democracy and this is also why we started to draw in the parliament because we want to. give people this right to do joke last night obviously must've been

a celebration for you but today we've spoken a lot over this campaign all through the years since a.f. there was founded before the last election you're losing it seems one of the talismanic figures of alternative for germany it does seem that petrie has announced this morning she's not going to take up a seat there we can listen to what she has to say right now we'll come back to you for your reaction after we hear from. football to create real policy and that's a long consideration i decided not to be a member of the parliamentary group in the bundestag i would like to ask you for your understanding i will not answer any questions on this. no questions the chairperson steps down the the morning after a monumental victory is the problems within the party. certainly it was a surprise that this happened today and she didn't step out and party leader she says she will not join the parliamentary group in the bundestag there's something totally different we have to be

a surprise certainly on the other hand it's her decision it's also a pity for the party because she's a very talented woman and she's very intelligent so it's really a pity for the party here at the big boys table now good luck to sound flippant about you taking up seats just behind us in the in the bundestag how does this look how does this come across the have a senior figure within the party to see look i'm not taking up my seat in the bundestag things happening and this happened to this morning i have been at the press conference but i think it will not hamper the formation of the coalition of our friends. parliamentary group this will take place tomorrow and the day after tomorrow and i will be part of it just to to to look and to see what what is going to happen ok i want to just clarify for people tuning in a fit about the f.t. they'll hear a lot of the stuff that you might consider slander so let's just say i'm a protester last night i call your party far right i say that you're a racist what is your stance exactly on for example muslims coming into the country

will you let some people come in and stay if they behave in a certain manner or not you say no to all i would tell you that we are not nationalist party we are patriotic party and we have a clear view on the migration crisis because certainly we want to support refugees and certainly we want to asylum for people who need asylum for instance because of religious reasons because of ethnic reasons because of other reasons but what we cannot afford he in germany is to have all these immigrants coming because of economic reasons and since two thousand and fourteen we have two one point seven million people coming to germany and most of them almost ninety percent they have only their say they they joined germany because of economic reasons so something is going on with this certainly not healthy for this country and although the point is we cannot solve the world's problems in germany there is going to be big questions though migration immigration is lamb of all being the points that are being talked

about is that alternative to chimneys about no certainly not because we have a lot of problems in germany and i mentioned it several times we have in europe we have the euro crisis for instance we have obligations towards greece of four hundred billion euros and even more. we have the crisis in the u. britain is leaving the you which is a pity because one of the most broke the vatican nations is leaving be you we have the said european countries who are not willing to take. any refugees or we have the cells of vessels in european countries who say that they let our left alone in the refugee crisis so we have a lot of social problems in germany these are all problems which we try to solve we've spoken a lot through the years as i said but we do have a little clip that we can show our viewers right now about who if they are where they've come from and what they want to bring to the in the stock whenever we look

now. wish list to see how the all stations and the selection. who leads the. levy's body.

will lead to the so-called take time out to me house down to the shop. where we've heard from hegel and there for a while i have played in this well book. you've got to come up with more than just immigration policies you did touch on a little bit before i'm going to have to push you on a bit more. you have to have more than this what is the future for alternative for germany now so i don't know if you have been looking at our program we have a program which is almost one hundred pages strong which means we have for all the post. missions or for the all the political things which are coming up in germany we have key positions it's boring policies security policies the is for instance finance policy and so on so we have a clear calm person we have a clear view what has to be done in the next four years and i think we really do a very great job in the german parliament ok great speak to you also peter because

you in the studio if. things stand here is how the official provisional results look for the makeup of the bundestag seven hundred ninety s. bit more than he would normally see in the bundestag and these are the numbers read them and weep for the c.d.u. founds they do have the biggest share two hundred forty six but almost seventeen less than previously social democrats they're also crying into their beers and fifty three seats terrible result for their ninety four it's all relative in the ninety four is a great results for the alternative for germany party. is expected to form a coalition with the remaining parties going to be a pretty tough job for yet again chancellor angela merkel are to turn the hawkins takes a look at what challenges she will face in her next four years as chancellor. so many angular merkel is the embodiment of stability in the face of crisis mixing diplomacy with a firm hand and sound decision making well for that skill this term has been marred

by a series of setbacks firstly she decided to open the doors to asylum seekers at the height of the refugee crisis almost a million flooded into germany in twenty fifteen alone while some more welcoming others started to worry the country just wouldn't be able to cope. a year after mark a lot open door policy journeys sort of rise in migrant crimes one of the most. shocking hundreds of women alleging they were sexually assaulted in cologne new year's celebrations by men of north africa an hour of appearance. the events in cologne took their toll on merkel's popularity. the chancellor's

controversial refugee policy is also blamed at least partly for something much more sinister and dangerous a rise in is the most terrorism. poorly vetted or later radicalized migrants cross the border germany saw multiple terror attacks take place markel faced biggest leadership crisis. or. burgers and for america reportedly think this really. going to hold money going to be one of the all. finally the g twenty summit presents an international p.r. report to duty for chancellor merkel but while she advertised hamburg as a gateway to the world protest groups had other ideas welcome to hell and the authorities failed to prevent the chaos.

the city descended into riots torched cars and pitched street battles with the police much of the media held her accountable for the chaos and for even choosing that venue to start with she may still be queen of the polls but merkel may need a fourth term just the right some of the mess she created in the third. date seems that no election. these days i really mean no election is they can pass without any allegations of interference coming from some form of entity in russia this time it's hackers a recent article in a german tabloid claiming hundreds of russian automated accounts ports to you and i on twitter were allegedly used to promote the messages from the alternative to germany party little come to a debate over the lease is really no substance to such allegations. while there

ever been too many reports about any russian interference during the election campaign and some commentators also said that even if russian wanted to actually intervene in the german elections it didn't really have to to do so because the majority of the german parties person would pursue foreign policy which is more or less favoring russia influencing. twitter on the side of the s.d. is well partly the best way to actually aside the german elections because only a very small share of. german people are using twitter and most of them are using facebook and while many of the a of diverse have devoted or possible voters who are from the german working class they are even less likely to use twitter thanks so much for staying with our coverage of the german elections of an

artery not just one player out some pictures of the river spray here and the central ballots have a look at that they look like it always looks that tell you what slightly different today is a few ripples out there political ripples it's germany but not quite as it looked yesterday and the e.u. model slightly different surely as well we'll explain all more analysis for you next hour. lol endless.

lead. in case you're new to the game this is how it works now the economy is built around corporations corporations run washington or washington controls the media the media control over the voters elected to businessman to run this country business equals power who must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. welcome back all the headline story this hour

a new human rights watch report accuses the u.s. led coalition of killing at least eighty four civilians in the syrian city of raka including thirty children when i guess their fault. in the unlikelihood more than eighty four people civilians were killed in two u.s. says strikes even and near the syrian city of braca and those eighty four people well that's just the bodies cool enough to identify their strikes alleged he targeted a school markets and the bakery putting to human rights watch which carried out an investigation and published a forty two page trip or previously the u.s. led coalition had said that following that internal review they found the claims of alleged civilian casualties tax credit bill it's well human rights watch visited these locations they spoke to the people man they looked at the evidence and they found that the u.s. led coalition given visited these locations they never spoke to the people they

never looked at the evidence coalition forces have said that there is insufficient evidence to conclude that civilians were killed in the attack on the school but as far as we know they did not visit the school they did not talk to any witnesses if they had they would have found plenty of evidence that civilians were killed in new in this case the question they're asking is whether the u.s. led coalition somehow missed the dozens and dozens of civilians present at peace ok control whether they chose to ignore them whether they didn't care about them he also said that there were isis fighters at these locations but so would dozens and dozens of other civilians the u.s. led coalition is smooth so what the pressure on another front here in the province of datasource the russian ministry of defense has released a number of satellite images to. two weeks ago showing us special forces as well is that kept inside help for mom i said stronghold the strange thing is that there's

no signs of fighting anywhere and i says resist to fear is that these areas would take it without a fight which is highly uncharacteristic of isis suggesting perhaps can do but these areas the russians also saying it's strange that the u.s. led coalition in that part of the forces have screening vehicles snow patrols out to warn them in case of an isis counterattack which is also very suspicious reach out to the u.s. led coalition to comment on these allegations but it received no reply so far well actually for i mentioned we did contact the u.s. led coalition forces for response we have actually heard back from them in the past few minutes they deny the allegations leveled by the russian military called on them to extend the same level of courtesy that they extend to russian and syrian forces in fighting a common enemy i still i have a military analyst come out along pointed out to us that american equipment has

ended up in terrorist hands before. but the last few years not just isis but also the al qaeda in syria which are linked to the syrian opposition they have consistently had u.s. equipment and a lot of the height. somehow all the u.s. weapons and terrorist hands so obviously these pictures could be quite damning and correct as mentioned the russian military and the syrian that we can really get some terrorists here vs the fighting in that area which is very crowded and it seems to be that. from what we can verify from the pitches these positions of those devices who are standing side by side with b.s.t. at which are allies of the u.s. and using their equipment. let's hear from a the altie election more of the fallout from the german election in half an hour from now then you know we'll be here with the rest of.

the put themselves on the line they did accept the reject. so when you want to be president. wanted. to go right to the press before three of the more people. interested in the water as it. morphs into a neo-con well that didn't take long also the world disorder after the united nations general assembly speeches and why does morgan freeman hate russia so much.

about your sudden passing i've only just learned you worry yourself and taken your last wrong turn. you're out caught up to us we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry i could so i write these last words in hopes to put to rest these things that i never got off my chest. i remember when we first met my life turned on each breath. but then my feeling started to change you talked about war like it was a cave still some are fond of you those that didn't like to question our ark and i secretly promised to never be like it said one does not leave a funeral the same as one enters the mind it's consumed with death this one quite different i speak to you now because there are no other takers. to claim that mainstream media has met its maker.

is dead with me and let it go it can all get a little older if the other. plus i'm a lawyer but i. know both it was a problem but i guess you're kind of on the other side of this here for the a dump a lot and there's no fear if you saw a little nervous to. get. to. where they blew you will get a sadistic good area for immigrants it's hit and miss we never really know for sure but this has been a active area. thank you so i. tell ya you. know what when i started no i did. it.

on. i'm afshin rattansi we're going underground is today u.k. shadow chancellor john mcdonald addresses europe's largest socialist party at the labor party autumn dawn french coming up on the show has called and takes on the playwrights of britain's labor party governs how come so many of them and their civil servants landed on their feet in jobs in big business we investigate westminster and whitehall revolving doors with spin watches david miller and from winston churchill to frank sinatra we speak to iconic british photographer terry

o'neill about sixty years of being behind the lens of award winning cinema groundbreaking music and a chapter in politics. coming up in today's going underground but first today marks the start of britain's labor party conference in brighton in the south of england but what has the u.k. labor party stood for until jeremy corbyn was elected twice to lead what is now europe's biggest political party well internationally labor is known for the rhetoric of this man but get the party no more bosses buses work because we are on the same side the same team britain united will win but to many some may i ask was labor not always on the side of the bosses except maybe for a bit after nine hundred forty five and when this man was trying to turn the tide of neo liberalism in the party can i ask you how you think but. rather it's not about that and you're correct if you're make it about that what we're talking about today.
