dilma rousseff. .. thank you. accept such a result. dilma rousseff... thank you.there, good morning. 21 celsius was our high on monday. tuesday could be a little bit warmer. it's settling down, really, this week, a lot of dry weather around, some sunshine just as we saw yesterday. the week ahead sees very little rain at all. very weak weather fronts heading our way because high pressure is essentially in charge. it will be a bit cooler around the middle part of the week. the cooler air is going to come in behind that very weak weather front there. that's the first one to approach the uk but it's running into high pressure. not completely plain sailing, mind you, because there's areas of mist, fog and low cloud around some north sea coasts, burning back to the coast, lingering perhaps around the south—west approaches, then our weather front around scotland, northern ireland, with it a little rain or drizzle. late sunshine in the far north—west but it's ahead of the front where we have the warm sunshine and perhaps highs of 23 celsius. the weather front pushes down

population is disillusioned disenchanted with many of their politicians the previous president dilma rousseff was impeached the president before the president lula is now serving a twelve year prison term for corruption very difficult to see which way brazilian politics is going so president has a very difficult situation in trying to control this enjoys very little support among the brazilian population which can see continues to see those prices rise. normally in these kind of situations people would've been angry with the truckers for stopping the foodstuffs reaching market for the shortage of fuel people were queuing up for many hours outside the filling stations schools were closed some domestic flights were cancelled but in general with a few exceptions people were supporting them because they generally agree with the demands of the truckers it seems unlikely that temp real work that the accord they've reached with the government will hold for very long they've lowered the prices for up to sixty days but it's see it's a very fragile truce a temporary truce and it does seem as though the

dilma rousseff, thank you for speaking to hardtalk. travelling the world, you are in london at the moment in support of your predecessor, the man all brazilians know as lula. why are you so confident that he could be president again? let's deal with two things that you have raised there. the first is you have talked about the reality. the reality is he is in prison at the moment, he is serving a prison term for corruption, and the courts, at the highest level, have said that his appeals have been exhausted. he cannot, if he is a convicted prisoner whose appeals have been exhausted injail, be a candidate. that's the reality under the brazilian law. how can it be a coup if all the procedures of the law have been observed 7 you make two questions. i must interrupt you. he was not tried by the media, he was tried by the courts. no! the supreme court, ultimately. if there was really no case, the supreme court would not have supported this conviction, it would have overturned it. a supreme court, incidentally, of which the vast majority of m

dilma rousseff. thank you. thank you for being with us on hardtalk. hello there.he uk, thursday was a glorious, sunny, dry day. saw so many weather watcher picture scenes like this one, in warrington in cheshire, of a flowerful field and shrubs, with the blue skies above, and a lovely end to the day with some gorgeous sunsets. but, like the last few nights, temperatures really falling away under those clear skies, particularly across eastern scotland. for much of england and wales, close to freezing in one or two places, with a touch of frost in fact, but not so much for the north and west of the uk. in western scotland and northern ireland, here a veil of cloud will continue to move in from the atlantic, so it'll be less cold here to start to friday. a chilly start elsewhere, another lovely sunny one expected for england and wales. more cloud, though, across scotland and northern ireland could spoil things a little bit bit. some holes still, with sunny spells, and those temperatures up a notch, i think, compared to thursday, around 19 in the south and the east. h
