green: i've loved the service. one of the things i've done in our district, i go home every weekend. i was in a majority ex-american district and a committed to do their surfaces. we started giving free immunizations every year to children, raised the immunization rate for children, predominantly hispanic mexican-american district. citizenship is very important. in a 94, we started doing citizenship days in june to help legal residence. he told me, i'm a puerto rican in chicago with a majority mexican-american district. we both started citizenship days reaching out to help people to come citizens of our great nation. that helps the community you help. i do two job fairs a year. we explain how our children, no matter their wealth, can afford to go to college. i have one coming up in our district before i leave in october. don't let anybody tell you you can't go to college. there is a way you can do it and we'll show you how to do it. steve: what will be the first thing you do when you retire? rep. green: probably sp

but the very latest from munich green party headquarters there thank you so much. let's get more analysis of this results in the various regional elections we have constantine bussing from home old university joining us and political correspondent kate brady welcome to both of you and i'd like to sort of follow up a little bit on with what may halo is saying because this is really it's not just a regional election i mean this is really being seen as as a bellwether generally for for national politics people analyzing this to see any clues in terms of you know where that this factitious nature that the political fragmentation that we've seen as of late on the political sphere here in germany is going constantine what do you think the implications are going to be well we've been talking back and forth about this this issue you know for the past hour and a half and i think the main issue is still that there has been fragmentation of fragmentation takes place within the two major blocs there has not been any big seismic shift between those two blokes so what was the le

for the greens there was jubilation. but there you are again needs a political party that solves people's problems rather than constantly causing new problems and that dear friends is why this result has already changed the very many many thanks for that. doom and gloom meanwhile for the s.p.d. they lost over half their voter share and the leadership seemed in shock. it's a video defeat. it means we couldn't convince the voters we weren't able to win the competition between the parties. that has to be analyzed at all levels but there certainly wasn't support from the federal level on the contrary we weren't able to benefit from the policy dispute between the c.d.u. in the c.s.u. switch and c.d.o. . for months the c.s.u. had questioned federal migration policy to the cost of coalition partners the c.d.u. and the s.p.d. the f.t. will most sit in fifteen of the sixteen regional parliament. they are what. anyone who voted f.t. today in bavaria is saying that america all must go ladies and gentlemen i. the regional elections

it was all for the green chile beth you tell us a little bit more about the c.s.u. what drove you to view as need to know about the c.s.u. from your perspective well i think they reflect the problem that a lot of mainstream sort of incumbent centrist parties in europe are facing at the moment and and there it's particularly poignant because they've been at the focal point of this migration crisis some people call it and you know on the one hand they have this rhetoric is under a set of being tough on refugees and they have this tradition of doing that but in practice i think a lot of people in bavaria look at what has happened with migration and refugee policy over the past couple of years and they say well you know they talk a good game but in practice nothing has really changed in terms of what does the c.s.u. has promised in terms of really you know tightening tightening things and you know for example putting more people on the border they've done that but they're not really border controls of the kind that they will still want to throw out there is all sort of

the greens we would have much time and out of really want to know why the greens are so successful at this point in time eighteen percent twice as much as last time i think through no merit of their own whatsoever. i think they're just sitting there what waiting for everybody else to make mistakes or disillusioned voters or whatever they just collect what's left of the floor there are a lot of people bettina who are suddenly talking about the. a new a sharpshooter in german politics we've seen before the national level we've seen it in budden growth back neighboring varia a conservative green coalition of course we can see that and we are going to see that and perhaps in bavaria too after after after the sunday but that doesn't mean that the greens have come up with any startling new policies over the last twelve months just not having to wait ideas of what to do about all the ills that we see in the world the big thing they are really doing nothing except the other is doing worse than nothing nothing and so they benefit well i think the greens benefit culturally from the fact that th

likewise down three points there now at just fifteen percent that's an historic low for them the greens in contrast a game three points for seventeen percent no change for the far right if the at sixteen the free market f.t.p. a ten no change for the left party either ten percent there. for more with me here in the studio is our political correspondent oliver sallust morning oliver i've run some incredible results here both merkel's conservative bloc and the social democrats down these are the worst results for them since the numbers began in one thousand nine hundred ninety seven what's happening to germany's once stable political system the party landscape as we've been knowing it for for the past decade it seems it's being turned upside down right now the social democrats just read out the numbers at fifteen percent on the social democrats used to be one of the strongest parties in germany that led former governments. we're used to these numbers for like fifteen percent from smaller parties but not from the social democrats the greens used to be their junior partner in the last as is

i believe for the greens. also making gains as well so certainly is a possibility. just look like a possibility again in has put the f.t. party as we said in all sixty german regional parliaments here in addition to the what do you think has been the reason for their success because prior to this they were very much marginalized on the fringes of politics people marching against them describing them you know as a policy of racists. what's been the secret to them becoming really almost mainstream. yeah. there not it's my opinion really and active phenomena they're more of a reaction to things that malcolm has done she moved the whole cd you. really quite far to the left from basically center right to center left in my opinion thereby crushing the s.p.d. the s.p.d. has its own weaknesses and they've lost i guess a lot of the voters to the greens and to the left. anyway and it's opened in the process though a big gap on the right side of the political spectrum which has been filled a vacuum in the church gets fil

the flip side of the coalition slump is a resurgent green party now that's mirrored in the response to the polls next question how should the government act regarding climate policy now these are the results there three quarters seventy four percent think the government should do more twenty two percent think the coalition is acting in the right way and only three percent say it should do less on climate change. so what do you think is dissatisfaction with climate policy what's fueling the green surge right now we have to go back a little bit and look at the current government and the coalition that was not merkel's first choice right before that there were color talks including the green party we're talking about right now and the business friendly f.t.p. party then the letter pulled out of these talks and that resulted in a situation in which voters believe that the green party is credible they benefited from that situation they seem to be ready to take responsibility they're neither extreme left nor right so they kind of like seem like a credible or like a reasonable alternative

sir philip green has not been shy about enjoying the trappings of his success.to sir philip's wife, tina, who holds the green family shares in the arcadia group. since she is a resident of monaco, she pays no tax in the uk. sir philip points out that arcadia has paid significant sums in corporation tax. the retail tycoon sold bhs for a pound in early 2015 to the former bankrupt businessman dominic chappell. it collapsed a year later, putting 11,000 people out of work and threatening the pensions of nearly 20,000. sir philip green was accused of running the scheme down whilst paying out generous dividends. eventually he paid more than £300 million to the pension regulator. but the affair dented his reputation and lead to mps calling for the cancellation of his knighthood. after sir philip green was named in the house of lords yesterday as the businessman a newspaper accused of sexual and racial harassment, he made this statment... "to the extent that it is suggested that i have been guilty of unlawful sexist or racist behaviour, i categorically and wholly deny th

we ta ke privilege to name philip green.most people, the story remains about philip green and his behaviour, his alleged behaviour, i should say. and what happens next, perhaps the issue about his knighthood, for example. perhaps the public is not so interested in the rights and wrongs of using parliamentary privilege. 0ne of using parliamentary privilege. one of the people who has attacked lord hain here is dominic greene, the former attorney—general, a highly respected figure in westminster. he called his behaviour arrogant. i can actually remember dominic grieve saying almost the same thing, very similar things, the last time there was a overusing parliamentary privilege to name somebody was when the football ryan giggs was identified as the person who took out a supremejunction to try to prevent the revelation about his affair. i can remember dominic grieve making similar noises at the time. that was years ago, about seven time. that was years ago, about seve n years time. that was years ago, about seven years ago. here

so what do you think is dissatisfaction with climate policy what's fuelling the green surge right now we have to go back a little bit and look up the current government and the coalition that was not merkel's first choice right before that there were coalition talks including the green party we're talking about right now and the business friendly f.t.p. party then the letter pulled out of these talks and that resulted in a situation in which voters believe that the green party is credible they benefited from that situation they seem to be ready to take responsibility they're neither extreme left nor right so they kind of like seem like a credible or like a reasonable alternative and then second. the environment is a very important issue for germans right now just very recently there were protests in a big forest in western germany that was supposed to be taken down by a energy company because they were trying to get league night coal from there in spite of the government promise to cut down on this kind of fossil energy in addition to that there are diesel bans imposed on german stree

that newspaper banker highlighted because of sir philip green's background.an imagine there's not much goodwill of his reputation and his formerjudgment. it is interesting that in 2016, the house of commons approved the honours of forfeiture committee reviewing his knighthood in light of the sale of the bhs to a former racing driver who had no experience running a major retailer, which endedin running a major retailer, which ended in disaster. philip green's association with monaco, i think it is unsurprising, in a sense, that people don't want to give him the benefit of the doubting a general yes, that business has been chequered. colourful, but when he ran bhs, it was a good shop. yes. fair enough. we have got to be very careful what we say. as i said, the injunction is still in place, and he himself has said very clearly in a statement that he'd refused to comment on anything that had happened in court was said in parliament, but denied any unlawful behaviour. shall we move into several territory? let's could your paper, john. the independent is talking ab

but sir philip green's attempt to avoid bad publicity has been an abject failure.he daily telegraph was prevented by the court of appeal from naming him in connection with unspecified allegations of sexual and racial harassment of his employees. yesterday the former cabinet minister peter hain used parliamentary privilege to identify him in the house of lords. i feel it is my duty under parliamentary privilege to name philip green as the individual in question. lord hain has since defended his actions. the judiciary, in this case judges, have their role to play, it is a very important independent role. the rule of law depends upon them exercising it carefully and responsibly in accordance with legal precedent but parliamentarians also have their role to play. it is for members of the public and others to judge whether what i have done in this case is right or wrong. i believe it was the right thing to do. but lord hains‘ actions have been heavily criticised by other leading figures, including the former attorney general dominic grieve. it appears to me it was an en
