For more responsibility or quite risky jobs now workers say that their stream be worried about any upcoming reforms because theyre worried that their pension rights or their pensions are going to be reduced and also that theyre going to be forced to work later into their later years i should say.

Now to gyptian businessman whos causing a storm by posting videos on social media detailing alleged corruption by president add the fact that his c. C. And Army Generals mohammed ali who worked as a military contractor for 15 years says they wasted millions of dollars on villas hotels and a seaside palace for sisi hes putting these videos online from spain where he lives and selfimposed exile the videos have attracted more than a 1000000 views some people in egypt are demanding hes tried for treason i wonder why spend a huge amount of money building these houses i never understood his decision was he staying in a one bedroom apartment of course not the problem was that sixtys wife didnt want to sleep in the same home when mubaraks wife stayed ccs taken low level corruption to a new level i built 5 villas facilities a palace for the president and a military camp in cairo i built a home in alexandria for the c. C. Family despite it being an official residence in the same compound the modifications demanded by ccs wife cost more than 1500000. 00 the army also ordered me to build 100 25000000. 00 hotel in cairos 5th 6th woman mohammed in mostly is the chair of the media and media and journalism at the da institute for graduate studies he says the absence of evidence doesnt matter to many egyptians. Egyptians largely know that the government is corrupt i mean egypt egyptians arent dumb. Egypt score is very low on all of the corruption indexes write them we know about the corruption during the mubarak presidency for example so i do know that the military controls the gyptian economy some estimates suggest that the Egyptian Military controls up to 50 percent of the economy they manufacture bottled water they manufacture furniture they own Construction Companies and i could go thats a very long laundry list so when he says these things it resonates because people sort of already believe it theyre saying now that you know hes a Muslim Brotherhood sympathizer theyre saying that hes got an ax to grind that we shouldnt believe anything anything that hes saying but the reality on the ground is that many egyptians are watching these videos theyre starting to have doubts even sisi supporters are starting to have doubts about his integrity as a leader and about the militarys integrity so i think its significant. The problem ocracy protesters have taken to the streets in algeria for the 30th straight week has been without an elected president since demonstrators forced president.

A british from mr Boies Johnson will meet with the European Commission president jiang Claudio Connex week to try and renegotiate the u.

I certainly wont be deterred by. Anybody from our goal of coming out of the e. U. Oct 31st which i think most people this country want us to do and they want us to get breaks done i believe they do. But i also wont be deterred from getting on with our domestic agenda and i think the people this country also want to hear yes it is absolutely true that the opposition parties they put it you want to have election nor do they want to deliver bracks and i have to face that that reality at the at the present but what people want is to hear how were going to get on and deliver on their priorities and that is what were going to do so i think its entirely relevant to come not just to the north but to all parts of the country and say how were going to live a 20000. 00 more police on the streets and what were doing to invest in our hospitals well john howard joins us live now from london so journey they did british Prime Minister theyre going on all what seem like an interim impromptu Election Campaign even though he hasnt been able to call an election. What i think its pretty clear that the conservative parties in gauge now in an unofficial Election Campaign all the parties know an election is coming and theyre all getting their policy promises slogans and messaging right Boris Johnson for the 2nd time in a week after in the north of england in labor party heartlands former steel producing areas of the country rather and voted 70 percent for leavin the conservative strategies to try and with those voters back based on labors sort of wavering policy towards a particular 2nd referendum at the moment i dont see it will go down as a bomb storming successful Boris Johnson this he was confronted in doncaster market on those public spending promises by a voter who said people have died here from austerity youve got a cheek to tell us that austerity is over that will leave the e. U. And everything will be fine its just a fairytale she said and then during that speech a heckler took him on over the suspension of parliament they forced suspension or proration of Parliament Saying why arent you in Parliament Boris with the m. P. s sorting out this mess that youve made of course johnson did his best to try and recover from that setting out once again his timetable that parliament back on october the 14th for a queens speech he wont be deterred from setting out a domestic agenda then the e. U. Summit hes cautiously optimistic of a deal on the 17th and 18th of october hes meetings on that in looks from luxembourg on monday and he says m. P. s will have plenty of time to vote on all of that the one thing the one big thing that he isnt doing gauging on and that is the new law passed last week just before parliament was suspended requiring him to get to get an extension if he cant get a deal or a chance and says simply we will be out on the 31st and that of course one of a number of potential showdowns to look forward to in the latter half of october all right janet thanks and i dont know how life 1st there in london. Well weve got a new Tropical Storm developing in the caribbean heres jenny tell us all about you know good news this whole has because this of course is the exact spot where we saw the recent Tropical Storm which became that massive hurrican doria let me just remind you really what were dealing with right now because of course weve had thousands of people impacted 5000 people have been evacuated from bahama and grace abaco youve got one in 5 people actually home is 2000 people in shelters and that is still 1300 people actually missing now this is what were watching next this massive cloud you can see here it does not have a clearly defined eye but that was just like Hurrican Dorian however there are some dissimilarities shall we say because this storm system although it does look for taking the same track it really will not be expected to have the impact asshole that dorian did that this is a storm system now its going to continue to move towards the west this is the cone of possibility over the next couple of days its moving quite quickly as well and you can see its pushing on through freeport not this really is taking pretty much the same track as dorian but the good news is the waters and so much colder because they will so without hurrican when it came through and these storm systems they have to have warm water to continue to fuel them so that is some good news now what it will do though despite whether or not it develops into a strong storm right now it is going to number at number 9 it will continue to produce some very heavy amounts of rain so friday through saturday you can see its progress pushing across the bahamas and actually by sunday most of the rain will have pushed out of the picture however we will of course hes in pretty big accumulations over the next couple of days so some areas certainly the islands could pick up maybe 1150. 00 millimeters of rain some thunderstorms in the mix as well and then some areas but generally over the open waters here has we could see another 250 millimeters of rain so keep it so well keep a close eye on this storm.

But that system has crippled infrastructure and choked its economy in todays reality many look at it youths are suffering because of this economy conditions people are frustrated. So peace talks are critical but the indian governments decision to hawkish weezer told me its also casting a shadow of the taking of the autonomy from the english we have taken it and youre promising it to the nuggets so what value does that promise have for the mothers and this is what is impacting the dogs.

Of hundreds of people have been protesting through the night to demand more is done to tackle Sexual Violence in south africa its estimated that a woman is raped every 36 seconds their presence has acknowledged south africa is facing a crisis on this issue and has promised tougher laws i mean a mirror has more from johannesburg. Organizers of the protest have handed over a memorandum to janas Book Stock Exchange they are demanding that quote brits are africa that businesses listed on the Stock Exchange contribute at least 2 percent of their profits to a fund dealing with gender based violence they say its time for businesses in this country along with the government to do its part do their part to fight gender based violence they say not enough has been done in this protest way hundreds of people have come to demonstrate is taking place in the economic hub of South Africa Sandton which is the richest square mile in africa they say this is. If the decisions are made and if governments going to take notice it should be now and its because theyre targeting businesses in this country weve spoken to survivors of the Sexual Assault of rape who say that theyve been raped a number of times and that theres been very little assistance and support only one in 8 south African Women report instances of a Sexual Assault that they say the problem is with in a system that does not support them women here and men as well are pleading for help to deal with what they are calling a national crisis. Often see her son is a youth activist and member of the provincial legislator she joins us live now from johannesburg thanks very much for being with us so why in your view are these protests taking place now. Look i think that its coming out of your frustration and really an inability to deal with gender based violence and 7 site in south africa in many ways what were seeing are not just young women but women of all kinds really taking to the streets to say enough is enough and really something has to change so its coming not just because theres been a spate of violence over the last few weeks in particular its coming because theres a much bigger structural issue in south africa that really has resulted in high instances of gender based violence and 7 cite. The president has acknowledged that this is a major problem and here suggested making the the sex offenders registry public what do you make of that is that it is a step in the right direction. Look i think that could be a step in the right direction but i dont think its radical enough what we really need is a much bigger change we need to look at the criminal Justice System we need to look at how we report instances of Sexual Assault and gender based violence very often theres a retrial or type station that victims have to go through theres a lack of training by police and different investigative offices and theres a huge stigma around it so most victims of Sexual Assault actually dont come forward and thats something that we need to deal with in addition to the fact that you know we have a constitution in south africa that you are innocent until Proven Guilty and a lot of activists on the ground are starting to question that to say that in instances of Sexual Violence maybe perhaps the onus needs to be turned the other way around to really protect victims more than we do perpetrators. If the rules are toughened against against sexual offenders thats thats only one part of the issue i mean because a lot of people say this is its an issue of the culture. Towards towards right there and thats something thats going to take a lot longer to changes and i fully agree i think having better laws as one system but we do need a multipronged approach and i do think that we need to start educating in an learning very toxic behavior that we see not just in the streets of south africa but in the workplace in general spaces and i think that also speaks to an education and i think we need to reject the notions of even at a sort of Early ChildhoodDevelopment Stage where people are saying boys will be boys etc etc those are things that we need to start changing now in addition to legal change in addition to Immediate Response but i fully agree we need to tackle the idea of rape culture more holistically good to speak of you 1st he hasnt thanks for being with us thank you for having.
