but let's look at also the private companies that are folding in south africa. tate companies are failing? the anc is failing eskom so that it can sell eskom. if you first make it look like it's not working, so that by the time you come to sell, everybody is so annoyed with eskom and agrees to the nonsensical selling of state—owned enterprises. recently, we had an aviation company close down. it was not a state—owned. and then, you take the state—owned aviation company, and you say, "no, let's privatise it because the state can't run it" — as if when it's run by the private sector, that it does a good job. it's not true. right, just one point of detail, mr malema. it's no doubt across the world that vladimir putin's invasion of ukraine has led to a sharp spike in energy prices and in food prices, which badly affects the people of south africa. i just wonder why, in that context, you and your party are so loudly pro—putin? you have said, "we are with russia." your colleague floyd shivambu has said that the russians "do not target civilians or civilian infrastructu

well, that is, how do you see the development of hostilities in the south? tually, what can happen there or how can our enemies behave even like that here , the reaction of the russian troops is more interesting here, that is, they are obvious, because if we take a global assessment and i would offer them such a simulation, let's imagine that here now is just a mirror image and in is in such a situation ukrainian troops, they actually hung out on the dnieper, there are quite large groups there, with various estimates, more than 15,000 troops may be located, but the enemy is constantly cutting off communications, bridges are basically destroyed, that is, you can try to build something there at night, but the river is quite large there , called the dnipro and that's why it's not so easy, and let's imagine what we felt and what tasks we would have set before ourselves, that is, in a normal situation, it is necessary to evacuate all the troops there because well, in fact, i don’t really see the enemy’s military tasks there. well, well, they are there, thanks to t

that's how overconfident the south was. even then judah benjamin the attorney general proposed that the south ship a lot of its cotton to england. this is when the sea lanes were still open to finance. what could be a long war and everyone else in jefferson davis is cabinets. that would be necessary there would be no long award. in fact, they hit on a counter strategy, which was they decided to withhold their own cotton. this was the only source of their hard currency of their exchange which they needed to buy ammunition and other very necessary goods the strategy was they withhold it from england and france and that would make the british the french so desperate that they would intervene and stop the war and the south would live happily ever after as an independent nation exactly. how the british and french would end the war a notion away if they even chose to they didn't plan out. it was obviously a colossal miscalculation and i think it grew from the kind of seclusion and isolation, which are autocracies and cartels can d

it that hit the global south again really hard-— that hit the global south again reall hard. , , reallyn the global— really hard. it is those countries in the global south _ really hard. it is those countries in the global south that - really hard. it is those countries in the global south that are - really hard. it is those countries in the global south that are the | in the global south that are the poorest, that are least able to deal with the worst of climate change. precisely. and this is where it is import to be clear that it is not just climate change coming out of the blue and effecting these countries, that it is that developing context that makes these impacts on currently challenging, and it is also what we have so many people who are sensitive and exposed to these events, climate hazards. that is... we often categorise countries in the global south like pakistan as the most vulnerable to climate change, but let's be clear, it is notjust because of climate change. in it is not 'ust because of climate chance. ,., ., it is not 'ust because of climate chance. ., , ., it is not '

but it's the winds from the south that are going to win out. so what that means is big drop in those temperatures from $34.00 down to $24.00 in a small sale, which is more in line with where you should be for this time, the year that persistent an intense rain continues to fall across the pacific coast of columbia, we could certainly see some more flooding there, and i got to tell you from northern mexico. we've got extreme drought conditions here, but look at his batch of rain running through at that could trigger some flooding because the ground is bone dry. so it's a bit of a catch $22.00 there. so this is just a weak wave of tropical activity that southwest of texas. and there goes into northern mexico. on monday. now we've had big monsoon or storms across areas of nevada. still seen them flare up again, los angeles at 32 degrees are going to be locked into some high heat over the next few days. temperature is a bit fresher, across the great lakes toronto at $24.00 and will end this one off in the west coast of canada. the pacific northwest

that? kristi: that'll continue to be a debate. there's people here in south dakota that are continuing to talk about that. for me personally, you know, it's a difficult conversation because i know that this tragic situation that happens to women is horrific, and i can't even imagine. i've never had to go through anything like that. i just never believe that a tragedy should be followed up by another tragedy. we know from science and technology over the years, the last 10 to 15 year this is is a life. this is a baby in the womb and it does feel pain at a certain point, and we also know that when doctors do procedures on babies in the womb, they are defined as patients.ie they have patients rights. ... you recount the story when i am telling the story for several reasons about the publican majority elected in 2010 and the leadershiplt difficulties majory leader cancer had corralled this new key party majority and telling these stories is informative for people may look at republicans in congress now. s surprised me into some degree, although it makes sense that

that our founders envisioned. i think a lot of americans outside of south dakota. probably first heard your name during the coronavirus pandemic. where were you and what were you involved in when you first heard of covid-19 and realize that you were dealing with a crisis? well, i was running my state and making decisions, of course all of 2019. we were dealing with flooding in south dakota. we had been hit with a bomb cyclone that had caused a federal disaster in 63 of my 66 counties. so i had spent all of 2019 responding to emergencies helping families and businesses and towns get patched back together facilitating fema assistance. i was certain that 2020 was going to be so much better and that we would actually get back to you know, just normal government operations. so when i started to hear about this virus at the end of 2019, i wondered if it would ever really come to the united states. would it be what they were saying it was going to be we got into january i set up an emergency operations center starting to prepare for it doing research assessing what we had

when we think of that in regards to trusting in south carolina, how do you answer that? who are we now? >> as to where we are now in 20 22, some other games we have made -- some other games are under threat --of the gains under threat. when i see posted are coming in to take advantage of the change that we work hard to build. that is ace -- a concern. people are -- in an effort to still say they are shaping the narrative. i probably didn't see that years ago i feel that now. i say it publicly. we are on a good trajectory in terms of the hard things. i am grateful for january 21 hopefully of that year because i have the good fortune of sitting in the first board meeting. i didn't understand why i was in the room. i thought of some of us -- is just going to come to pass? back then, it was only $40 million. i think we are on a good place. there are enemies at the gates but for me and others, standing and sitting here, you have to be confident in yourself and i think when you are, they gives you the capacity to overcome things. >> thank you. >> one of the important distincti

and as we side toward the south, that weather maker that was in the western cape province of south africa now moves to the east, but that is filtering in some cooler air for southern mozambique. you go from 31 to 23 on monday. see you soon. ah ah ah lou ah ah, alleghany watching out 0 mind about top stories this hour and a man suspected to carry out an attack unoccupied east jerusalem has handed himself over to police. 8 people were injured in the shooting on sunday morning. believe the gunman targeted passengers on a bus and in the car as well as pedestrians. donald trump is facing mounting pressure off to report that the former us presidents loya, signed a statement in june confirming all classified material had been returned. and that would be at odds with this week seizure of 11 sets of classified documents for mar, longer ortho salman. rushdie is no longer on a ventilator and is talking to being stabbed 2 days ago. the man accused to carry out the attack his 24 year old had a my time is pleaded not guilty to attempted murder. monday marks, one years since the taliban took control of

so at that tells you how small south dakota is. but i was just so surprised by it that i went and immediately after the meeting e-mailed people back home and said they needed to call him and talk to him and then that made it into the public news stories. and i just realized, immediately, how bad i sounded like a know it all. that i didn't even go to him and really discuss it with him. instead i decided to start e-mailing people back home who didn't have a context what was said in that meeting or the strategy behind it and it was a very teachable moment for me. you know, that i didn't want to be the kind of person who ambushed others in policy and i recognized that trust is something where you create an environment where you build a team. it's not where you either trust somebody or don't. it's almost like a bank account. you to different actions how you treat people, how you talk to them and you're-- how dependable you are is building trust, day after day after day and i wanted my colleagues to know i was somebody who was reasonable,

well, the russian ministry of defense says that in order to advance on the korean south that order was given by zalinski. was it really about reclaiming territories or was this just a p r campaign to show that it was still in the fight? well the fact is they are reclaiming territories. in order for this to be about reclaiming territories, i think significantly more resources would have been thrown into the into the fight . it's not just about temporarily breeching russian defensive lines. it's about exploiting that breach. being able to carry out, you know, meaningful advances through that breach and then hold that territory. there's nothing about the ukrainian order of battle of it suggests this is, this is what's happened. what we're seeing here, our attack spore purely political reasons, so that the ukraine ministry of defense, ukrainian presidency can say, look, we are on the counter offensive. we are filling our promise to, to retake us on and ensuring our potential to retake other territories as well. but we can only do this, and this is the critical part. we can only do this if

that. while south africa captain _ the pack like that. le south africa captain says he has - the pack like that. while south africa captain says he has a - the pack like that. while south - africa captain says he has a fresher squad with healthy competition, it's a good combination. and england will just have to hope that something about 0ld just have to hope that something about old trafford will change the dynamic. to an incredibly sad story. just two days after winning the scottish championship, mountain biker rab wardell has died in his sleep. he was 37. wardell won the elite men's title in dumfries and galloway at the weekend and then appeared on bbc scotland's the nine programme on monday evening, describing how he had overcome three punctures to win the race. his partner is the 0lympian katie archibald, made an emotional statement in a social media post on wednesday morning. you can see the tweets here. they describe her attempts to help rab after he went into cardiac arrest alongside her in bed, saying she tried and tried and that

flow and temperatures in east anglia and the south—east likely to peak at 27 celsius. that'see more wetter weather, sharper showers developing out to the west. so first thing on wednesday morning, a very humid feel, 18 degrees. and so, despite it being quite cloudy to begin with, it will be largely fine and dry with that south—westerly flow. as the rain eases away, the temperatures are likely to peak at highs of 27 celsius by the middle of wednesday afternoon. moving out of wednesday into thursday, that weather front is going to continue to sink south and east. there'll be no significant rain on it, unfortunately. and so, that does mean that thursday on the whole will be largely fine and dry. potential for some thundery rain first thing in the south—east and then into the weekend, drier but noticeably fresher. this is bbc news — the headlines... the former prime minister of pakistan imran khan has been charged under the country's anti—treason act after he accused police and justice officials of torturing a party colleague. hundreds of supporters gathered outside his home, say

counter-offensive actions, but even in such conditions our command demonstrates, for example, successes in the south, thatficantly and even in this case, you see according to official data, more than 50 settlements of the kherson region have already been liberated. that is, this speaks of the high class of our armed forces units, and that is, there is artillery and, of course, infantry units, including aviation, that is, even under the rule the russians are in the air, we still fight and win back our air as well, well, there is information there , we already know that shantona and the journalists counted first of all that they are giving us four more heimers somewhere, that is, together with those uh, how are they the m270? it seems that there will already be up to two dozen of them. all together, somewhere around 20, 20. i understand that this is not very much, but, well, recently the minister of defense of the so-called russian federation announced that they had already destroyed four harmers and then two more came out of nowhere, already six haimuss. so even the pentagon officially said that they have

south. chile in the north, that is about to change. but 26 locally, 27 in the south. rain marches its way on a strengthening breeze eastwards overnight, heavy and appreciable rain for many as far south as the midlands potentially an drizzly rain further south. but unlike in the south and east, it introduced smoggy air so a warmer night across the board and we already have the warm weather from the south. but after that grass frost in the north. and that is really a trend for the next few days. the weather front keeps meandering southwards tomorrow, still some bursts of rain, itjust will not be for everybody and unlikely to reach the south and east. to the north of that on the breeze, sunshine developing with sours —— i was in the north—west. breezy tomorrow, but warmer because we carrying the moist air from the atlantic. 23 or 24 in the north, 29 or 30 in the south potentially after warm nights, very warm day indeed. one again tuesday night into wednesday with this weather it could give rain at the commonwealth games tomorrow and again on wednesday. its close proximity

going to be debated and new constitutional amendment to protect african american voting in the south. that's the 15th amendment. you know about the 15th amendment, it is the one that protects voting. women lobby hard to be included in the 15th amendment. when congress passes, and in the states ratified the amendment in 1870, women are not included. when they are not included, suffragists are furious. they do something very smart. they decide that weather going to do is, they're not going to try to lobby any longer for women suffrage specifically. what they're going to do is they are going to argue that they are citizens under the 14th amendment because, of course, they've been born in america and are naturalized in america. women decide in the presidential election, the tight presidential election of 1872, that they are going to test their right to vote under the 14th amendment. across the country, in 1872, suffragists tried to vote. they try to register to vote. but that means as they will go up to a registrar and have their names enroll in what's -- to be able to cast a ballot or not. in 1

, because it is possible to trace that, in principle, the air force of ukraine performed tasks in the south, but now there are even more than one hundred pairs of flights by ukrainian planes, which really indicates that they have additional capabilities that arose precisely as a result of the fact that they arose in the russian troops problems with air defense, by the way, is one of the reasons why they are now being pulled from ulan, where from other territories, from other parts of russia, additional missiles and anti- aircraft guns and launchers for the s300 system, and how expensive is this equipment in general, and what stock do the russians have of it? well, what as for stocks, today it can be said that it is quite difficult to accurately count the number of missiles, because they remained from soviet times and were produced in those days, i mean before the s300, so it is difficult to say about the exact number about the fact that the russian forces today and in russia have reduced opportunities for their renewal and they are focusing on either the production of old models for which t

i will say to you that the other countries we visited in the region. malaysia, south korea, japan, singapore, they were happy that we were there and we stopped in taiwan also. >> do you think that china's actions and words are just to intimidate and not that they would follow through on? >> there are some things i cannot discussed. we have had a lot of classified meetings. but i will say i don't think china other than having the talk and doing the unprecedented missile tests, i think that those threatening moves is an attempt to intimidate. we were not intimidated and our delegation and speaker pelosi is not intimidated by beijing and president xi jinping. >> did the biden administration try to persuade you for making that stop? what did they say to you? >> president biden is very aware being a former senator of the difference between the legislative bodies and executive. therefore, he knew that we had a responsibility and we should do what we thought was right. i'm appreciative of president biden in the sense that the authorization and protections that were needed we

s. forces based in south korea and they remain a i think, very close in that respect. so i think to a certain extent, this trip by nancy pelosi, what she couldn't come to this part of asia without visiting south korea. she is doing that. she'll be on her way to tokyo later this evening, but i think the most substantial part of this trip that remains will be done in tokyo when she meets prime minister kasheila to morrow. and tony, i fear, in the meantime that north korea has way then on china's side after that i one trip and it reports now that place he will visit the d and d. indeed i think probably not surprising that this is expression of support from north korea. interesting also to know that nancy pelosi will be the 1st or the highest level us officials to visit the demilitarized zone between north and south for it. since donald trump did it in 2019, and i think it also illustrates just what a change there is and policy regarding the trump administration, the by the ministration of trump. but put very dpr k, very much at the top of his foreign policy agenda in asia.

it is also a way of dangling the carrot towards south africa through the breaks platinum and pacifying his voice within that life. this is why anthony blink and is here in south africa. he's got to convince cyril to take some anti brick stands under the guise of the african growth and opportunity act. now it's becoming clearer to the i south africa should never allow the us to use it to divide breaks. usa is fueling conflict with 2 major bricks countries, russia and china. now blinking comes to south africa to make it look like south africans are on the side of us. south africa with bricks. us secretary is here for what, why he did not follow pelosi to taiwan. we are part of bricks and we will buy russian oil. if those dollars are part of the deal, they know where to find them. south africa was not part of nonsense, and we stand with russia the visit here by the united states. if also 2 lines, it's sub saharan africa strategy where it says that it will focus on areas of common interest. like trade, energy, health, and education. south africa is the united states, 4th largest trading partner. but a thing thi

would kind of, you know, sue the wounds that the south and suffered. yeah, that's the lead was extraordinary general, but i think brilliant tactician, but i think that you're right that lee just felt he had to prolong the world long enough that the northern public would tire of it whereas, you know, grant had to exercise strategic brilliance, which he did and finally coordinating five different armies president enormous right of front and as was it grant who said this or sherman that you know, lee's world encompassed to stay, you know, grand strategy had to encompass a continent. yes, very very apt. well, let's offer the first captain of the corps of cadets an opportunity. to show why she is a rhodes scholar. first optimum and thank you so much for being here tonight and allowing us to share in this moment with you. the one of the things i admired the most about grants not just the relationship he had with his soldiers but the relationship he had with his subordinate officers, and i know there's a lot of navigation in terms of the politics at the time i

it does mean that we'll start to have a bit more of a south—easterly wind that should bring some warmer showers breaking out in the west in particular, but most significant rain arriving in towards ireland late in the day. temperatures, by and large, more widely in the low to mid 20s. and then as we head into the weekend, our area of low pressure starts to become more of a feature, strong winds on the northern edge of it. so, after a week of fairly quiet winds across scotland, northern ireland, northern england, the breeze will pick up here and we'll see some outbreaks of rain, heavy and thundery in places, fairly showery, so fairly hit and miss to begin with, more likely across some western areas, eastern areas staying largely dry, breeze off the sea and a strong winds are said that particularly gusty to the west of scotland and across parts of western cumbria. now, that rain will then start to just affect parts of england, wales more especially as we go through then into start of next week. low pressure remains to the southwest. it's just how quickly that moves its way eastwards. whet

that population growth. but if we go further south, it was not like that at all. if we go down, not to new york but let's jump to regina and maryland which was the first settled area -- to virginia and maryland which was the first settled area. things happened differently. england found they were living in a very unhealthy climate. it was -- i would not say tropical but at least somewhat subtropical. the rates of disease were much higher and mortality rates were high. rates of population increase were very low and they had great difficulty sustaining their population. that is what caused them to try to read workers and they began to read -- two important first english indentured servants but they found that more difficult. then they began to turn to slaves. african slaves. that is why african slaves began to be brought in large numbers into virginia and maryland, when they were not brought in large numbers to new england. that created two profoundly different population and cultures and much of american history is about those differences. >> i know that you go int

that could well expand across the irish sea and into parts of north—west england, and south—west scotlandt. a fair amount of cloud also streaming into north—eastern parts, and the breeze will be picking up. that will hold the temperatures up in double digits for many of us, and that brisk breeze will be a big feature of the weather for monday, a bank holiday for england, wales, northern ireland, not for scotland, with high—pressure to the north of us we will see brisk north—easterly winds, making it feel rather cool and certainly keeping things rather cloudy for some eastern parts. the best of the sunshine and the highest of the temperatures will be further west where you get some shelter from that breeze. despite some rather windy conditions in the south—west of england, temperatures here could get to 25 degrees. lots of sunshine to come here. also, a decent amount of sunshine for wales, parts of northern ireland. further east, we will see more in the way of cloud, could be one or two afternoon showers, but there is confirmation of that fairly brisk breeze and some low temperatures acros

was that the south could only win by prolonging the war. nd defeating lincoln in the 1864 elections, whoever it was that when oppose him and sue for peace -- and committed to that. gambled at gettysburg, and another number of other cases. casualties were unsustainable for the south. grant, where no other union commander had before him, came up with a strategy that produced the victories, that ensured lincoln's reelection in 1864. again, i think we sometimes miss that. even when i was a cadet at west point, the military history books at the time were much more about the industrial strength of the south that somehow gave grant, who is a butcher, a war of attrition and so forth -- they sort of finally were able to defeat lee for all of his greatness. >> it's amazing because of the strength of the lost cause -- it was amazing for so long lee was considered incontestably the greater general. ulysses s grant captures three entire confederate armies during the war. first was fort donaldson, then it vicksburg, then appomattox. he captured three atti

and the donbas, if we do not look at the map of the hostilities in the east and in the south, then we understand thatevery way to preserve this corridor that they are breaking through from russian territory to mykolaiv or odesa, well , at least the kherson region is also under occupation. how do you assess it now? the situation on the eastern and southern fronts and the fact that russia during the last two months, which constantly says that we have already reached the administrative borders of the luhansk and donetsk regions, still did not do this. yes, you correctly noted that they did not achieve their military goals and by the way, political ones, here is the exit to the administrative borders of the luhansk donetsk regions, eh, together with that, and we see now that they have a grouping, it is not restricted directly to this in one area, it is spread from kharkiv to the very eh to kherson, and i am sure that very many different versions sound, i am sure that they , er, understand that ukraine is trying to recapture the south, and they are already giving to use the not many forces that they have,
