with the party are clear about who the party should be. we've been fighting for immigration reform we've been fighting for reproductive rights we've been turning out for criminal justice and we've been voting down ballot on issues we've got to make sure they represent out issues and if we act those polls and in the streets and fighting for our rights then guess what the democratic party will have to catch up to us. we went to detroit were organizers of the women's march the large demonstrations after trump's inauguration gathered. people here seem to have a more crystallized view than democratic party leaders of how it should move forward and white house so for. example credit party is too many to pick and choose. the conversation it's often reduced to this question of who is the how do we get the white working class back as opposed to how do we build the kind of coalition that's multiracial that's really standing up for everybody that people are excited to be a part of let me just you know the democratic side is going to tell you that a d

it is upholding the party's role. this is after the 19th party congress. one of the things the chinese are very good at is summarizing usually in four characters very complex phenomenon. my own summation of xi during his first five years, four characters. the first is the domestic policy. this means do as you're told. the second is foreign policy. that means make way, we have arrived. i would say that's as fair a summation as any of the policies of the first four years. so the party is in control. and xi also has put forward a more chinese china. it was striking to me that in the work report he mentioned culture or civilization 121 times and the word reform only 64. thank for control find when reading chinese documents. if you combine this interest in culture with confidence, you will not be surprised to hear xi decliaring repeatedly that the chinese people must be confident in chinese culture. it is a statement of a final rejection of the west, of universal values and of america in particular. after a long period of quasi a apprenticesh apprenticeship. it

party has sacked. robert mugabe as party head for the very latest we're joined now by d.w.correspondent privileging fun hearing who is joining us on the line from harare a privilege here as of the ruling party's headquarters we understand after so many years of rule under mcgarvie and its historic moment what's the mood like where you are. quite is it again we're. talking from the. left the. prisoner about the. political party. or the. chief for the political. support to be the truth of course to be. p.c. very very quickly. my. question is is the. government. all right so that's why it is important as you say to bear in mind he may have lost his job as head of the party but from a legal standpoint robert mugabe is indeed still the president of zimbabwe you mention these impeachment proceedings that the party will begin should he continue to refuse to step down but what about the army is it prepared to remove mugabe by force it's needed. they will not do that because that's why. they want to follow the constitution when the embargo on what. one. wants to. take is they are sa

surely they cannot be unavailable to our own, both in the party and in our own, both in the party andceived, in a comradely, zimbabwean spirit. i am confident that from tonight, our whole nation, at all levels, gets refocused as we put shoulder to the wheel amidst the promising agricultural season already upon us. let us all move forward , already upon us. let us all move forward, reminding ourselves of our wartime mantra. i think you, and good night. —— thank u. it isa it is a long speech. applause 0k, ok, thanks. robert mugabe with an absolutely extraordinary speech to the nation. it was expected that he would announce his resignation, but he has not done that. it was a lawn and typically rambling address to the nation from robert mugabe. —— long. he was flanked by some of the generals he has been negotiating with. it had been reported he would announce his resignation, but he has not done that. let us take you through a few of the things. this was after a day of extraordinary pressure on him, in which he was dismissed by his own party, zanu—pf, and they then gave him an ultimatum t

revise the party constitution to include language making it clear that the party must hold the party. and that the party must be comprehensively and strictly hold. there are four essential requirements of the party must meet as a specified in earlier party constitutions and they have now added a 25th one which is told ruling party by the party and practicing strict self-governance in every respe respect. even the romans 2000 years ago were smart enough to ask the question who guards the guard themselves by ignoring this question xi jinping is putting china on a collision course so there is an ideological problem that comes out of the party congress. let me clued my remarks briefly by saying we shouldn't be comparing xi jinping tomorrow. mao was not a model of a strong leader. he is the model of a successful revolutionary leader. strong leaders in authoritarian systems i would divide into three classes stalin is an example in a tightly controlled system of a leader who, through the purchase of 19361938 gain absolute control over the country and the party and for the last 15 years of l

of party installed the country's former vice president emerson on the ganga mugabe's place party has threatened gabi with impeachment if he doesn't step down within twenty four hours if they really see this ignition is. good. more of the twenty. thousand and seventy. we've ordered to teens to keep. more of the list in terms. of the body. all right for more from harare we're joined now on the line by journalist ray in blow over ray thanks for joining us so is mugabe going to step down in the coming hours or will he have to be pushed out. thank you for having me bring gold indication of chips right now in. that prison macabre he's not going to make your own demands and then that's not protocol there are you prepared he's ok the show rage against the stakeout we're expecting thank you for coming to the nation or it might not actually be our third quarter sort of just be careful for an announcement in a couple of minutes. well we saw earlier the pay scenes of jubilation at the center of his party headquarters when mugabe was sacked and yet it was less than a month ago that he had the unc

we can't do without parties but we also know parties are in trouble. parties are an organization that do not represent aspirations of societies in the same way they used to. aspirations that a change dramatically, and the parties are very hierarchical structured organizations, very disciplined organizations, and that is a work in society these days, have become more horizontal. it doesn't work in the workplace. it doesn't work in politics either. pro comes to the scene with the new conception of a political party. more like if you want like a social movement that a political party, in the traditional sense. it's a party with a horizontal political culture, if you may. if i may. the party of, the crisis 2001, 2002 argentines to the street and argentina defaulted from its debt and last until last year literally one way or another. and the people it to the streets demanding everybody's resignation, everybody many the political elite, everybody's departure. they should all day, they meaning the political elite. that was the origin of pro, created in the wa

parties involved in daytime talk but i will also talk to him in the chapters and some of those parties where. any election program over there. allows not to exclude the possible formation of a government i would also talk to the heads of the other because it usually organs the presidents of both chambers of parliament i will talk to the president of the federal constitutional call. and. one thing is clear you know me inside and outside of our country and particularly in. the neighboring countries in europe. would rise if it was specifically the strongest. country in europe where the political forces don't live up to their responsibility thank you very much there was a german president from foster steinmeyer speaking just a short while ago saying that there are no fresh elections on the cards right now we have. a political analyst at the global public policy institute here in berlin and we also have our correspondent hans bronte was in front of slow spells you were from told us by it's time i was speaking just a little bit earlier on starting with you what do you think is the most likel

party congress a clear slap in the face to his own party who had given him twenty four hours to resign or be impeached. zimbabwe's main opposition leader morgan tsvangirai said he was baffled by his failure to step down as were many ordinary citizens. all this week to these rigs next and. despite everything that he has done to be with dignity and to just walk away. and we just. do that try to be so stubborn. with the confusion following mugabe's speech the way forward for zimbabwe suddenly seems unclear. let's get the latest now from harare we're joined there by journalist ray in global trade president mugabe has not resigned the presidency what is he actually doing does he think he can still hold on. yes thank you for having me i think that's the indication that we got yesterday from speech which he gave to the nation where he primarily still believes that he's in charge of charge of the country he's in charge of fees ruling parties on the p.f. it's either. that exposes the depth of how out of touch ease with the reality that he is isolated not only politically because under pm reject

a normal political party, a party that wins elections and a party that loses elections. and a party that when an election is lost, nothing happens. it's not the end pickets beginning of a new future. he used to say if we're not able to do that, we will miss the boat. because that was in the '80s. democracy is here to stay. and the fact that we lost, he used to say, in 1983, they used to talk that talk, that was, you know, we need to realize that. i think peronism is less bad weekend to think but it has a decision to make, and that will also be the full circle for argentine democracy and stability. whether it's going, , again, whether it's going to continue in the cristina kirchner neighborhood i will go back to the other neighborhood in the 80s and become a normal political party. if it becomes a normal political party will continue to have the future. it will continue have an identity. if it doesn't, it might as well disappear. i was there in the run-up in the previous period before the election of 2015. i wrote a column saying the end of peronism. and my parents friend

headquarters party. headquarters in berlin rupert what issues need to be resolved for these talks to move forward first of all. well i think the main issue that the parties have to agree on of course is the migration issue last night the negotiations went on for fifteen hours and from this fifteen hours twelve hours were taken up only by this one issue on to right now the party officials are arriving here at the c.d.u. had quarters in berlin and what we hear from them and that's the statement it's quite interesting to see the hue officials they all try to be like the ones who who who are likely the moderators of the of these these talks while these small parties especially the greens and the c's you they are playing some sort of a blame game telling us that it's it's always the other party that is not willing to compromise that. the compromise would be needed that each one has to. accept the willingness of the accept the need for compromise but that no one is really willing to do so so it seems to be a g

deputy leader of the alternative for germany party. political crisis unfolding in germany after the breakdown of coalition talks the country staring at the prospect of a snap election and months of political uncertainty how can germany carry on this locomotive of european politics instability at home. gratian reform in jeopardy with question marks over under look this future and when will the deadlock be broken. patricks welcome to the show it's great to have you on our program now it's been eight weeks since the election and chancellor merkel still can't form a government this is the first time this has happened in seventy years this crisis is the result of politicians putting their personal ambitions about national interests or is the chancellor to blame for failing to broker a compromise while that it's all up to mirco this is. a government formed together with her and the greens and the liberals it's only got four merkel it's to spite it's bad for all of the other parties so why it failed in the very end. i think it's a very good d

the ruling party is doing. taking a measure to eliminate the potential threat to the powers that is cool all right so what does this mean for next year's election and a political opposition in that you say the country is moving towards a one party state will there be any opposition of unsubtle next year. of course without the participation from the opposition party the main opposing party it is difficult to convince internet in our community that next year election will be free fair and meaningful because you know it's no no more main contending political party in the next year elections so that is it's hard to say i mean. election is free and fair or i could see so many things develop with chen there in singapore a south african delegation is in to zimbabwe to try to mediate a way out of the political crisis that the army seized power on wednesday and placed president robert mugabe under house arrest it was angered by the sacking of the vice president last week as a serious hell of a tussle reports now from zi

my party needs to do that, the conservative party needs to do that.to happen, this is an ongoing, unfolding situation, and i think political bodies will need to catch up and have those processes in place. earlier today, mr corbyn was asked how it is that kelvin hopkins was included within the shadow cabinet following those allegations and being reprimanded. what do you think specifically about him first of all not commenting, and how he has been handling this current issue? i am not going to talk about kelvin hopkins when he is under investigation. if he wants to talk about himself, it is right and proper you ask him. he has had the whip withdrawn and that is under way. i think if kelvin wants to talk about that, that is up to him. but i am not going to comment on a case thatis am not going to comment on a case that is active and being investigated. what about mr corbyn himself? is he showing enough leadership on the matter?” himself? is he showing enough leadership on the matter? i think so, it is going to be very easy for people to sit down and play

to depose robert mugabe as party leader. to dismiss him. he was completely humiliated, they sacked him after 37 years as leader. you still technically —— he is still technically president of the country. zanu—pf has issued him with an ultimatum, he has until midday tomorrow local time to resign voluntarily or else impeachment proceedings will be launched against him, probably on tuesday in the parliament behind me here in harare. the ceiling, he has been meeting generals at the official residence. you can see him shaking hands of the man who carried out this military ta keover man who carried out this military takeover in harare last wednesday, after they became fed up with his plans, apparent plans to pass power to his wife grace mugabe. there is speculation that robert mugabe could be the pairing of significant announcement this evening, because the state broadcaster, z bc, is a p pa re ntly the state broadcaster, z bc, is apparently planning a broadcast from state house, his official residence, later this evening. inevita

the people was the labour party. applause so, to be elected leader of the scottish labour party, to lead our party as a movement for real change, asa party as a movement for real change, as a movement for democracy, and yes, as a movement for socialism. cheering and applause asa cheering and applause as a movement for realising the hopes of the people as a source of immense pride, but it is also deeply humbling. soi immense pride, but it is also deeply humbling. so i want to thank all of those thousands of labour party members and supporters, including trade union members, who over the last nine weeks... ‘s have participated in the democracy of the labour party, your participation is the sign of our great strength as a party and a movement. and whoever, whoever you voted for we are one party, we are one movement and we stand together. applause and that is way i particularly want to thank my friend, my comrade anas. applause for the way he has sought to move this debate about leadership on to the debate about ideas. s

he took out loans to help the party, to rebuild the party, to restaff the party. but at the ind of the day, it left the party in a lot of debt. >> rose: here's my point about the book. this is a fascinating book, hacks, the inside story of the break-ins and breakdowns that put donald trump in the white house. you have a couple of things here, in your appearance on my show with eye wonderful colleagues were trying to get you to confirm what you said in the book, gayle thought were you walking away from the book, nora was raising questions as to what, in fact, about the democratic party, and whether it you believe it was fair ortion. not. >> the-- . >> rose: which is the question nora asked you. >> the primary is run and maintained by the state governments and the state parties. and i concluded when i told bernie i would figure out if the system was rigged, i concluded that, that i found no evidence that it was rigged. although some people from bernie's camp believed it was rigged. i also concluded that there was a cancer inside the party. >> rose: what is the cance

in respect of the party. and the party each is raised both by their commanders i know by the general membership of the new p f they're to stand acknowledged this to stand that knowledge they have to be attended to with a great sense of agency however i am aware that as a party of liberation as i know pierre by as over a year as a region elaborate the rules and procedures of that guy the operations of all its organs and the press and nail indeed the current criticism raised. raised against the command element but raised against it by the command element and some of its members have a reason for a male were founded the perception that the party was straight cian or even failing in its own rules and procedures their way for what dice cannot be based on swapping vying cliques that dry the rough shored of a party party rules and procedures there has to be a net return to the guiding principles of our party as enshrined in its constitution which must apply fairly and equitably you know all situations and before all

so that was head of the free democrats the pro-business party crist and leno the party that just walked away from the table and we've seen how the other parties have reacted basically making the f.d.p. the bogeyman here hons what happens now we do not have a majority government we don't have a proposal for a majority government now in germany what are the next steps. well there are a number of formal staff so they're basically prescribed by the german constitution and bill and that will say tonight that she is going back to the german president the president is the institution as it were that gave anglo-american of a mandate to form a government to try these kind of coalition talks and president can again give her another man there to try for some other sorts of coalitions these are conceivable especially the grand coalition that has ruled germany for the last four years the social democrats together with the conservatives but the social democrats have said again and again and emphasized even today that they are not interested in re entering government in another grand coalition so that

sacked as the party's referee as the party's leader. that's often the news thanks for tuning in and you can get all the latest news around the clock on our website at e.w. dot com. we take it personally. with all the wonderful people in stories that make the game so special.

party? do you care, and does it matter? tom: on uranium 1, that is distracting donald once again. yesterday, sarah huckabee sanders says it had nothing to do with anything in the campaign. maybe she didn't get -- i looked at the papadopoulos materials. how can you look someone in the eye with a straight face on the podium where she stood and say that papadopoulos, his guilty plea has nothing to do with the campaign? that is beyond the laugh test. i am confident that some folks who want to be part of the distracting donald movement will continue to try and go down that rabbit hole. that was the steve bannon rabbit hole. again, if you want to distract from the task at hand, you do that. hisracting donald is currency, is to distract especially when the , heat gets white-hot. the heat is very white-hot right now. i can expect there will be a lot of things. we are the democratic party. the democratic party is about fighting for everyone. it is about making sure everyone has a fair shake, not just

and that can rip a party apart.he sense that there was this sense of maybe democratic enthusiasm would be a little bit muted by the fact that there had been this primary, and that didn't turn out to be the case. the now, i will say that tom per ellow campaigned very, very hard. >> did an amazing job. >> for raffle northam. >> he set that example. and part of the thing too, it wasn't just that the primary was tough. it was then as the race went on, you know, our candidate did some stuff that offended some people. like not even the african-american lieutenant governor in the marl. some people said are african americans going to be offended and sit down. i think people are going to have to learn, unfortunately, that sometimes you've got to take a little bit of frustration inside the coalition, stick together and win and then try to fix this stuff later. >> it's also true that we're a big diverse country. and what may be popular in your neck of the woods may not be popular in someone else's. and candidates who are going

now the story has come out and he has been suspended from the party. investigation and tonight he is denying any wrongdoing. he said in a statement: he said she had thanked him in a text for a fantastic time. today, jeremy corbyn was in no mood to defend his position as leader in the whole affair. thank you for coming to my road, goodbye. were you aware of the allegations against him before you promoted him to beat shadow cabinet? no word from him or his office but he knew about the reprimand and some if not all the detail and promoted kelvin hopkins anyway. goodbye! but some in labour's ranks want to hear more. she said she was satisfied with the way in which the chief whip at the time managed the situation but horrified to then see the mp in question promoted. i think it's a fair question as to have happened and it is one that only the leadership can answer. i know the victim felt a bit bereft by his promotion. expect more allegations. labour mp clive lewis is under investigation for allegedly touching a labour activist inappropriately during a party

there was a call from the party to said he was fired. there is huge disappointment because he remains in office. for many, the social siege is the final stages and inevitably he has to go as it -- as soon as many would have wanted. >> the southern africa director at human rights watch joining us from johannesburg. thank you, we appreciate your insights. >> to kenya network to people have been killed in violent protests after the countries supreme court upheld the reelection of the president. the court dismissed to legal challenges to the boat. he could well be sworn in next week but many opposition supporters are saying they don't accept the vote. >> since the ruling, nairobi has become a tale of two cities. some people have been celebrating the supreme court decision confirming the reelection of the president of the jubilee party. after he won, 98% of the vote. supporters have had run his with police that cost lives. everyone came after they successfully challenged and earlier to in august. the nation remains divided. >> the verdict has

party said a short while ago. we believe it is important for the citizens of our country that is the voters to assess the new situation in germany. we're showing we're not afraid of new elections. following the results of the election on september twenty fourth we are not available to enter into a grand coalition because of course. there you have a speedy once again reiterating the fact that they are not going to enter a coalition with german chancellor angela merkel c.d.u. c.s.u. thomas how likely are new elections and what would that mean for the balance of power in the country and specifically for the chancellor angela merkel. well we just heard martin shows there and if we look at what happened in the election on september twenty four his party the s.p.d. had a terrible result a result that was blamed on the fact that he and his party had previously formed that grand coalition and that's something that we heard him say he wants to avoid at all costs although however some people in the party some of the members

he got that party back into the bundestag. .pletely understand that is what i give him credit for. now he's at the point where he's in the center of what is happening. he now has to take on a different perspective. also, i think he's sincere about this. the sdp was a terrible coalition partner. it didn't deliver anything. it became a lobby of -- a party of lobbyists. minde back of lintner's is, i don't want to betray the voters again. peter: absolutely. i think we need to have a look -- when we talk about change, the big question is what happens next. let's have a look at the options now. >> first scenario, merkel forms a minority government with the greens or the free democrats. postwar germany has never had a minority government. the downside, a minority government would have to build majorities case-by-case. second scenario, the grand coalition. but the social democrats chairman says no. he prefers the third scenario. new elections. the downside, long uncertainty with no real prospect of the vote turning out favorably. with:

that and i think both parties are not the establishment of both parties are not ok i think there are figures in the democratic party that are more progressive guy i'm a conservative guy really conservative i have i kept a really good relationship with a lot of progressive's i see a lot of find a lot of common ground with progress is on the issues as well it's this establishment republicans and the establishment democrats i can't i can barely on speaking terms with them ok because they're fail their signature is failure failure failure ok it's time to shake up the discourse and change narratives tim you're a progressive i think i think we could agree right. absolutely well yes you can agree and it's nice to meet you muffed my friend look peter i look at it like this big money interests is the problem it's not anything other than that it's one of sixteen wall street all the elections thousands of the fifty five million dollars spent by wall street so then we got back deregulation this is what goes on in america that's the real problem but go about it to donald trump and back to the dem

the party he dominated for so long.placed as party leader by a man who was one of his closest allies for decades. a crocodile! the new readability macro is known as the crocodile, celebrated here for his ruthless cunning —— the new leader emmerson mnangagwa. he may have agreed to pause, but he is unlikely to stop until he ousts his own brushes old comrades. 0n the streets of harare, the president's people seem to already occupy a different nation. here praying for reconciliation and healing. they have already started to move beyond the trauma of the age of mugabe. so how ordinary zimbabweans reacting the night? shingai nyoka has been speaking to residents of the city, to get their reaction to mr mugabe's refusal to resign. we must learn to forgive. i came to listen to what president mugabe had to say. after a meeting with army generals responsible for a takeover earlier last week, they had expected to hear his resignation speech. at this bar, they waited and waited to be told by president mugabe in a stumbling address..

so much as remarks clearly aimed at germany's green party as a hoffa c.s.u. in the greens are at loggerheads on many key issues including migration and energy policy. but what we can't allow is that someone says i want discussed that you know everyone has to negotiate otherwise the talks don't make any sense. the fourth player in the negotiations germany's liberal f.t.p. are also set on a positive outcome use a consulate's a new coalition at a federal level in germany could mean a new beginning in terms of policy. and we hope very much as free democrats that the other parties are bold enough to try it and. the four parties had hoped to have already finished with negotiations but with one self-imposed deadline now missed many expect there to be moved long nights ahead. let's get the latest on from t w political correspondent to charlotte potts who joins us from chancellor merkel's c.d.u. party headquarters in berlin welcome charlotte what are the big stumbling blocks. well there are many still left the big issues are migration climate and finances especially a

ameliorated in respect of the party and the party each is raised both by their commanders i by the general membership of the new p.f. there to stand acknowledged this to stand that no rights. they have to be attended to with a great sense of agency however i am aware that as a party of liberation. over. this region elaborate rules and procedure is that guy the operations of all guns and to pursue a nail indeed the current criticism raised raise against the command element but raised again sit by the command element and some of its members have a reason from a aware founded the perception that the party was straight cian or even failing in its own rules and procedures their way for what the us cannot be based on swapping vying cliques that dry the rough shored up high tea party rules and procedures there has to be a net return today guiding principles of our party as enshrined in its constitution which.

that is what is being threatened by zanu—pf, the party that has dumped him as party leader.ign. do you think parliament will do that and can do that and if they can, how quickly can they do that? well, that was the message coming through should he not resign, that the chief whip zanu—pf would institute proceedings in parliament. and not only was there a decision to purge the g—force tielemans, but the g —force t purge the g—force tielemans, but the g—force t provincial party structures of the state have been removed and the team have been reinstated, so there has been a reconfiguration in parliament. a strong message sent by the party. what i don't know whether they would indeed decide to go for impeachment 01’ indeed decide to go for impeachment or whether one of the key deals find the scenes has been, ok, we will allow youtube reside over the special congress in december, which will lead to the formal succession choice, decided by the party, because robert mugabe has always said he personally could not designate his successor. so it would a lwa ys designate his successor.

who say it's a hedge monic party. and no. the hedthe party doesn't lose parties. it wins all the elections. why? because it won all elections. that's the indicator of a hedge monic party. 1983. we forget that. pairenism lost. it lost in 1999. and it lost in 2015. and yet again lost the. they lost again in 2017. so, because of that, the myth continues. parrism is the only one that can finish a presidential term. that's not true either. when he came to office, threw congress. by a congressional crisis or solution. also had to leave office earlier. had to call for early election because in the argentina of those days he couldn't go on either. and he was sworn in to finish the previous president term. but had to anticipate a call for election. and that's the way it happened. by the way, the the president that the competition in that election in 2003 is also evidence of what you say about argentina politics you might as well say. the party the movement the identity. has to make a couple of decisions. number one. it has to decide whether it will -- because which has bee

the social democrats and miracles party the christian democrats and so forth and what we saw over the weekend with the collapse of these talks is that there's a party out there that looked at this potential coalition and came to the conclusion that they couldn't in good conscience continue on with that if you take christian winter the leader of the free democrats at his word and i have no reason not to so i think this kind of soul searching now about the future of germany's consensus driven model might be a little bit over the stage. maybe sort of. now i have to think of the box because if you live here you get used to this consensus you get just this feeling of a certain muddling through actually because over the last couple of years leaving aside the foreign policy the domestic agenda is minimal there is very little happening and there's a kind of fatigue and also i think an intellectual critic and the voters they were wondering well what is governing about. what kind of the various political parties offer us maybe this explains some of this support for the far right wing alternativ

party members within a company then you can set up a party so i think the difference where would we have some examples is that they have been the companies have been actively approached to support that i think this is the difference i mean setting up parties sales and also more influence of the party is not a completely new thing in china. says the cells are meant to help companies better understand chinese policies and to settle disputes that is beginning to make businesses easy a quarter of the firms recently surveyed highlighted legal and regulatory reasons for not increasing their investments in china. you know just say brits is set to call on the brakes a building that looks like they're going to be paying a bit more than prime minister theresa may intend it at worst an o. as the black money from financial obligations like investment programs and infrastructure projects agree to prior to the referendum the actual amount is what has caused. for the cameras it's all smiles in brussels but behind the scenes they're not pulling any punches the e.u. has set strict requirements for b

37 yea rs, of his own party, zanu—pf after 37 years , we of his own party, zanu—pf after 37 yea rs,party, zanu—pf after 37 years, we have just received these pictures of mr mugabe holding negotiations with the military here, the military who took control in harare last wednesday. they had denied all along it has been a military coup d'etat, but they are negotiating still with mr mugabe, trying to persuade him to resign of his own free will, rather than being forced out of office. you can see shaking hands, the military really keen to emphasise that this is not an old—fashioned keen to emphasise that this is not an old —fashioned african keen to emphasise that this is not an old—fashioned african coup, where they just depose the an old—fashioned african coup, where theyjust depose the leader. they wa nt theyjust depose the leader. they want him either to resign with dignity of his own volition, that their preferred solution, but if he won't go we have heard there is a deadline set by his own political party, zanu—pf. if he does not resigned by midday tomorrow, he will be impeached. o

ok and the party is also planning to reinstate emerson. who is vice president until mugabe axed him just a few days ago that move seems to have kick started this whole opposition to mugabe that we're now publicly seeing can go on now once again be seen as the successor. it is not clear cut because even if he's going to be admitted back into the party yes you may be ready but the issues. in the party itself they do we have to end too good to. congress that is coming. in december in december there with jus to have an extraordinary congress but it we it was not clear is whether they were going to make it in elective congress so when they go to the congress then that's when they would have to decide whether or not god now becomes the party leader ok and the people of the country obviously we've seen them put on a massive demonstration are there more planned later on briefly if you can of there are no protests by the ordinary citizens that are planned today later on but the only thing that i to hear before coming on is that. chant she's plannin

both parties.and they said was really wrong with america, you know what's really hurting the country, taggers are oppressed. >> so bankers. bankers are struggling under this oppressive weight. leave kooky in jail but free the bankers. we got to free the bankers, what could possibly go wrong? and within years you had crash of millions of dollars, millions of homes, both parties find on that. both parties signed off on the idea thatwe should build prisons . both parties, mass incarceration. raising each other, to strikes and you're out, you know. both parties. and they said it would make black communities better and it's just destroyed families, destroyed neighborhoods. >> but both parties were for that. both parties said we should get involved in these overseas wars. 15 years, we still can't figure out a way out of them. but when you have two parties, you have a bipartisan elite failure at the top of both parties, at some point, you're going to have a bipartisan rebellion. >> and so what you saw in

party headquarters that's malcolm's party and i saw one of the chief. negotiators and asked him is it still fifty fifty and he said yes it's still fifty fifty but he had a twinkle in his eye as if he thought he thought it was confident that they would at least agree to keep talking today a twinkle in one's eyes some optimism there but as we know there are some major sticking points between the negotiating parties can you talk to us a little bit more about that. well the main sticking point that we're hearing is what to do about the refugee situation the bavarian conservative party the c.s.u. the most conservative party in the talks they want a hard cap on the number of refugees that germany admits per year at two hundred thousand the green say that's not on they're willing to accept that as a target of what they say it needs to be flexible and then and then there's the issue of whether all refugees who have some sort of right to remain in germany get to bring their relatives that's something that the greens are insisting on that something the c.s.u. say

but the party congress next month.he party has replaced him and called on him to resign by tomorrow. our africa editor fergal keane has the latest from harare. these are the hours after anticipation. when it was announced earlier today that robert mugabe would address the nation, it was taken to mean one thing, he was going to resign. and that was encouraged by officials, the idea was encouraged by officials who were said to be close to negotiations. well, the world's oldest head of state has defied the dictions and the hopes of many of his people. the very music seemed designed to drain any drama out of the moment, and perhaps the geneality of the encounter was a give away. robert mugabe didn't look like a man about to walk into the wilderness, and his words, delivered 15 minutes into a rambling address, confirmed that he intended to stay as leader of the country and party, at least until the party congress in december. i will preside over its processes, which must not be prepossessed by any acts calculated to undermi

to the opposition party this is normal democratic politics at work according to the ruling party this is tantamount to treason hence the case today which gives them the grounds potentially for dissolving the opposition party now critics argue that this is a blatant use of the judiciary of the courts to curb political freedoms and democracy here the government says this is nothing of the kind this is merely an independent judiciary at work but it's worth bearing in mind aaron that one of the senior judges on this panel is in deed a long term friend of the prime minister hun sen under a leading member of the ruling c.c.p. party and rob the cambodian national rescue party said it expects to be banned so watch then next move and how is this being viewed across the country as a whole. it remains to be see this is a hugely popular party it nearly unseated the ruling party at the last election it has something like three million supporters across the country so the immediate response will be interesting to gauge whether there will in fact be protests on the streets now there have been protes
