Been following all the action and joins us now in the studio while thats really only one man that everyone is talking about not is of course Christian Coleman but you know despite that incredible when he still has to answer his critics about these missed drug tests whats he been saying about thank you and well the fact that were talking about the miss drugs tests rather than his achievements last night which was that the blistering is a blistering race what time he put in that just really says it all about the situation athletics and coleman finds himself in he insists that hes clean is he saying that all along and he says he doesnt have time to educate those people are not interested in knowing the truth. Its not impressed by him is Michael Johnson a limp dick legend the guy says. Coleman basically doesnt have any right to be the face of a 30 x. He is not qualified to be the face about 30 considering these missteps spending and it is not what you think i think or even Michael Johnson is the fans that would decide in the end right and coleman also says that hes not the new you saint bolt and we are obviously in this play. Bolt era of athletics its difficult to see though because coleman was so dominant in those races yesterday in the semifinals and in the final how anyone else could be the new single or do i know the fact is he is beatable gatton has beaten him and even no liles whos not received the 100 but will be next to do the 100 he has beaten. This season already so what were going to have is a really really interesting situation in tokyo next year one thing i want to point out bigger than this interesting situation of whos a new bolt is were seeing a pendulum swing shift jamaicas been so dominant same power.

Every year 50000000 tons of electronic waste is thrown away the majority is a legally done in developing come. Right now electronic waste is traded out since with retracing the tech through the criminal organizations making big profits and asking why the west is turning a blind eye. On the waste trail on aljazeera. Territory in turmoil protests his face tear gas and beatings as anger grows in hong kong. Hello again im martin denis youre with aljazeera life and also coming up. After a turbulent week Prime Minister Boris Johnson attends a conservative Party Conference wileys bracks it battle goes on. And once put our faces in afghanistan its more than violence its led to only 2000000. 00 people casting their ballots in the president ial election. And the controversial kenyan project that promises jobs but threatens a unesco World Heritage site. But 1st protests in hong kong have taken another dangerous turn within the past couple of hours for lisa been trying to block antigovernment demonstrators from reaching the territories Central Government building there fired tear gas water cannon and rubber bullets at the crowds the protests in 3 bricks and petrol bombs towards a Police Station they also defaced untold down signs congratulating Chinas Communist Party which is set to market 70th anniversary on cheese say. It is just after 7 in the evening in Hong Kong Sarah Clarke has been following developments throughout the day how do things look now now nightfall has arrived. Look most of the protesters have dispersed for now we have pockets of some still clashes the place of trying to disperse those groups through parts of one child and causeway by the mine where the mine action was or the mine confrontations i should say that was earlier in the day at causeway by which is that at the start of this rally which was considered an Unlawful Assembly and at the end of the rally which is around the government headquarters as well as the lives of Council Building we had a number of multiple rounds of tear gas fired on those protesters we had rubber bullets fired we had the water cannon firing on a number of occasions and that of course was life with that blue dye which makes it easier for the police to identify those protesters whove been on the front line i should say the protesters where defiant today we saw them push back push the police back on a number of occasions when the police fired on them i fired back at them and they were throwing everything from petrol bombs bricks and other devices. But fires the whole way along the march its about a 3 kilometer walk a distance from the where it started course right by and all the way to a Central Hong Kong and as i mentioned there was no permission granted for this particular assembly and was on those grounds the police moved in early today early on sunday they were at the start of the rally and thats where the sport special started around midday and do you get a sense of the mentum is building for more confrontations in clashes through to choose day that all important day of China National day. Thats what hong kong is preparing for an escalation of violence and confrontations in the lead up to october 1 its a Public Holiday as well here in hong kong and in china so that the more people on the streets or allowed to ib. To participate now its the 70th anniversary of the founding of the peoples republic of china and of course this whole protest has morphed into a wider call for democracy and theres a lot of anti mainland sentiment but theres a large group of people in hong kong usurping one want to celebrate their pride china on this anniversary and so on those grounds at the antigovernment groups in the prodemocracy groups are hosting their own relatives in various locations and were yet to find out if some of those protests will go ahead the suggestion is at this stage that there will be a number of those rallies and theyll be across 16 districts so they try to disperse disperse or distribute themselves scatter themselves across hong kong and weve also got the pro china groups hosting their own rallies so we do expect in the place are preparing for escalation of violence on tuesday right never before has hong kong been so polarized i would imagine whats happened to the to those platforms of public dialogue that we just started recently where kerry is trying to seek out Public Opinion is that theyre not going anywhere to assuaging the anger on the streets. Well there was mixed reaction to that particular Community Discussion carrie lamb listen to the people she had a selected group of people she spoke to in that very public kind of community for that situation but the reaction has been mixed and shes refused to bow to the various other demands of these protesters have called for of course we have the extradition bill which is where it all started that was withdrawn a few weeks ago but now these protesters have 5 other demands and that includes you know the universal suffrage a greater democracy there what the protesters whove been arrested already they want and the state for those people and they also want a Police Investigation or an independent investigation into the Police Action actions i should say theres been a lot of accusations that the police have been quite badly in their behavior towards those protesters and i think after sundays rally and the way the police have moved in quite early and we have seen. For tear gas fired today than i have any other rally ive also seen different tactics used by the place and i think todays tactics of those tactics by the place will only anger and further aggravate those protesters who are having or hosting the government rallies in coming days all right sara thank you for that sarah clarke live in Hong Kong Well throughout the day rallies have been planned for major cities around the world in solidarity with the protesters in hong kong they started in australia where more than a 1000 people turned out in central sydney they were shouting slogans like fight for freedom and stand with hong kong demonstrators wore black clothing a color that by the end to government protesters in hong kong. Right to the u. K. Now britains Prime Minister is battling several fronts at the same time as he joins members of his conservative party a man just here in the north of the country for their annual conference there is not only the pressure of bricks it is johnson theyve also been called for him to resign over Corruption Allegations from his time as londons mayor lets see now our correspondent is there in. Manchester where that conference is taking place so these allegations that lawrence accusations are mounting against him but i guess the only important thing is the mood of the party as he goes to meet them for their annual conference any idea how theyre going to receive him. Well yeah i mean you know plainly they they regard all of these things as enormously inconvenient for them whenever he doesnt save you he keeps saying look you know the people want to get it out of the way and were here in manchester its all about schools and hospitals and Police Numbers and fighting knife crime and all those sorts of things none of which have anything to do with the u. K. s capacity or not to leave the European Union but he is in all sorts of trouble in parliament and outside it theres as well as all of it seems lost inside parliaments and theres the Supreme Court ruling that suspending parliament was was unlawful as you say hes now got the police potentially investigating a very serious Corruption Allegation as well and on top of all vats while the protesters you can see behind me are waiting to start their demonstration against the conservative party on top of all lassies they sing incredibly difficult question that you now he keeps having to deal with how can he manufacture a situation where Parliament Says and it is now the law that he has to go to the European Union and seek an extension suppress it by the end of october and yet at the same time hes saying. He will it be the law but the u. K. Will leave the European Union at the end of october at the same time so so clearly both of those things cant be true and everybody keeps saying so well how are you going to do it then and of course he wont say so it is an enormously difficult situation that he finds himself in and plainly theyre going to try to bring the agenda back to the stuff that they want to talk about the conference but it is overshadowing every every single thing and when there is an election whenever its going to be its going to be effectively a 2nd referendum on the way because its completely swamped Everything Everything to do with british politics so. Lifeline for Boris Johnson and his government to come up with a deal which could possibly manifest at the summit in the middle. Of the 15th how like that. Taking shape. You know well i mean he says theyre making progress the talks behind the scenes people say to him well what is it then what are you doing that constitutes progress and he wont say and the europeans say that there arent any other ones any meaningful talks of any sort its all there is and there is no sign of progress but back to that conundrum how can hear by the law and get the u. K. To leave the European Union anyway with or without a deal by the end of october 1 supposition thats doing the rounds is that if he can get a deal done he might actually declare a state of National Emergency which would allow his own executive the government to over rule and over write the law that says hes got to see the extension now clearly that would be obsolete in century if it happens and parliament would be in complete revolt because they would say thats thats the executive is actually setting a precedent that says that if he was free to do things he wants to do without consulting parliament are told but given what the europeans say is a lack of progress it may be that he has Something Like that up his sleeve in order to force the issue because in his opinion parliament is simply getting in the way of what the people decide its all right now lawrence thank you very much there is a live in manchester. Violence technical failure and disillusionment have had a dramatic impact on afghanistans president ial election and Election Commission official says he estimated value to turnout for the vote was just stay the 2000000 people out of more than 9 and a half 1000000 registered voters thats about it plus on top of that there were about a 5th of all polling stations were closed or they had no communications and almost 70 attacks across the country killed 5 people injured hundreds of others pride breaks the numbers down for us from kabul. It became obvious during the election day saturday that the turnout was going to be low but these initial figures seem to bear out just how low the turnout has been we have had the initial figures back from the Election Commission showing that across afghanistan some 4500 polling stations were opened thats 500 less than the country wanted those 500 couldnt open because of security concerns and well over half of those polling stations have now returned figures showing that more than a 1000000 people voted now if you consider that most of these polling stations that have so far registered their numbers in the cities where security is higher then we could see even lower returns coming from rural areas where the taliban is stronger so that 2000000 votes could be on the optimistic side even so that is out of a population of 9000000 people who are registered to vote in a country of 30000000. 00 plus and this compares with the last election 5 years ago when 8000000. 00 people went out to vote nonetheless the Afghanistan Government is claiming this to be a success that despite all of the production
