the far right populist party are both parties that. i attractive to east german voters who in some sense feel that they are 2nd class citizens in germany as a whole that their interests are not being respected that their interests are not being met by the current government so these kinds of protest votes have gone both to the left and to reinjure and to the right they if he in fact its entire campaign in that stage on these issues that affect people on. from eastern germany. political correspondent reporting hans thank you for. and you're watching it over news still to come in sports. club a car back on top of the world just like it could be that team to challenge firing . plus and for with i will see lewis hamilton's masterful display at the mexican concrete. that's all coming up but 1st the democratic republic of congo is grappling with the world's 2nd largest ebola epidemic on record with more than 2000 lives lost and 3000 confirmed infections since the outbreak began in august last year all the world health organization says the o

of the party's commitment to a future democratic system opposition party say that the outgoing government has undermined the independence of the huge issue in media as well as making poland less welcoming to us. minorities and the l g b t community. well here is the law and justice party leader yet us have to change shortly after the exit poll result was announced it told thought there were national. our main strengths are credibility and keeping our word. our work may well be more difficult in the 4 years ahead than it was during the previous 4 much national. but we must maintain credibility. and dispel dote but what we are doing is good real and responsible yes. you know. we ought to put it want to talk more about this now i'm joined in this year by voice action nancy from our polish that it's good to see voice hello hello anything surprising to you in these projected results well what's surprising for me is that this election night is so exciting to be honest because in this moment we don't really know if the rulings logan justice party will be able to form a government alone because w

i want to see the second referendum but the snp is a party to all of us are united, the most united partyur belief that we should remain in the european union. my constituency voted to remain, nation voted remain and it is easy to see why, there is no better deal than what we have is present as a member of the european union and i think we should have a people's vote so we can have that choice and fundamentally i think scotland needs to be able to choose whether or not it remains in the european union. what is the best result for you because obviously you're later he will not be prime minister and that is not how it works. best result for you isjeremy corbyn becoming the leader of the biggest party and then you hope to get a independence referendum for scotland as scion if ican referendum for scotland as scion if i canjust referendum for scotland as scion if i can just step outside the westminster prison for the moment we seem to think about things... parliaments around europe and the uk like in holyrood and elsewhere, no one party has a majority and sometimes it makes for better governme

to other parties.y, and that could help them in heavily remain supporting areas like london. but labour's hoping, as in 2017, they can turn round the polls in the run—up to voting, and jeremy corbyn will hope his promises to pump investment into public services excite voters more than boris johnson's rival pledges, to invest in the nhs and schools, and clamp on crime. it'll be cold, it'll be dark. will that put off older voters broadly keen on brexit? will younger voters turn out? they are mostly remainers. another hung parliament, another stalemate really can't be ruled out. and as for the main candidates for pm, jeremy corbyn is a seasoned campaigner, but so is borisjohnson. it'll be an election unlike any we've seen before. some of the target seats we will look at the next few weeks or so. we we re look at the next few weeks or so. we were talking about the mps who were welcomed back into the fold by the prime minister. let's head to the central lobby in the houses of parliament and speak to my coll

who used to be the leading parties the big parties in germany the social democrats on one side the c.d.u. on the other side they have lost support message and that's also important of course not only for the federal state but also on the national level because of this is not the only place here where we see this kind of phenomenon are so big losers are the established parties michela what real chance are numerical make of these results well 1st of all these results already pretty much factored into what is happening here in politico by the right now but they i guess another example that the german political trademark of the stable governments of forming stable coalitions and of posse is actually playing ball in always having an eye on that being the key aim in the end those days are over she knows that and that's why her so-called grand coalition with the social democrats despite all the infighting is not keen on having a negative outcome of the assessment that the present over the coming weeks which itself could question the very final term of angela merkel here in office but i think we

he's obviously changed his party to independent and left the republican party, and he's been very outspoken. so it would surprise me at all to see him run as an independent or potentially as a libertarian. and i also think if the nominee is elizabeth warren, there's going to be a lot of conversation about the idea that there's kind of a big group of voters in the middle who are underserved. now, we've seen howard schulz kind of, you know, take a run at that, and that didn't go so well. but he was coming at this as a democrat, somebody from the center left. i think there's a real opportunity for somebody kind of from the center right who what are some rt old-school republican values, and then more modernized republican values or maybe puts forward a more modern vision of what the -- either the republican party could be or even just articulate a vision for the country that is sort of -- brings together center right and center left. at this point, those are the people that are quite underserved, assuming -- that's assuming it is elizabeth wear refpblet but it feels like there's a voice for sor
