Well our other headline story this hour hong kongs leaders pledged to listen to Public Opinion after prodemocracy parties won an overwhelming victory in local Council Elections results being seen as a major triumph for the anti Chinese Protest Movement which has turned out in Record Numbers to kick out a probe ageing parties who previously dominated the 18th District Councils and now only control one of them it follows months of protests many of which did turn violent as sarah clarke reports now from hong kong. As dawn broke hong kong to a new Political Landscape will than 70 percent of voters cast their ballots in sundays district Council Elections the prodemocracy party secured a Record Number of seats a lot of hopeful people actually sacrificed a lot as a base of our lot in the last 6 months to actually get this result in i think people are very. United and there are so together to actually try to win something joshua was disqualified for running but his party claimed victory in his electorate on seating the incumbent post councilor remarkable achievement in that this election. Is the average of all home callers especially voters. Protests are a hotline for lying theres the pray the price span the time or even sacrifice in the protest movement until now the probation parties held the majority in the District Councils but anger against the government eroded their support theyve apologized to the public for misreading the vote those aligned to the post camp say its a nightmarish result and the citys government will need to reassess the peoples demands have spoken quite loudly and clearly havent they so i believe what we now do is subject to look at what it called a 5 major demands and what are you that any of them can be dealt with but the more satisfactory than before the district Council Elections are traditionally and on a vengeful poll but after 6 months of antigovernment demonstrations and increasing violence this election was considered a barometer of public support for the protesters this is a win for the protesters that could be a point for them to say weve weve arafats on the street have converted into a tangible political outcome of this is a Good Opportunity to step back and take stock and and think about what next for the protest movement so it may see a period of relative calm for hong kong after a very turbulent 6 months the prodemocracy movement celebrated their victory on monday but some protests his rally to show their support to those who are still holed up inside the Polytechnic University for more than a week the District Council vote comes ahead of the midst of Council Election next year sundays record turnout is considered a message from voters to reopen the discussion on the citys political reform the government now has 10 months to make changes before voters go to the polls once again sarah aljazeera hong kong. Well the reaction from china is that result in hong kong has been muted Andrew Thomas trying to find out what people think on the streets of the capital beijing. In Mainland China hong kongs Election Results are being effectively ignored asked about the landslide victory for prodemocracy candidates a spokesman but Chinas Foreign Ministry of voided the question should be all true and ending violence and restoring order is the priority for Hong Kong Hong kong is a part of china in hong kong a fears a purely chinas internal a few. Chinese media 2 said nothing about opposition parties doing well this is mondays china day printed on sunday night before the results came out inside it suggests the high turnout is good news for progress stablish front parties but since the results are come out nothing no update on the website of this newspaper at all and nothing in any of chinas official media on the substance of the results. We stopped people in beijing to ask them what they thought of the result. The response was confusion over the this how to go make had no one we spoke to had heard anything about them without him on the move and. The one man who did want to talk said this broad throughout history i havent paid too much attention this vote in hong kong yet but i think stopping the violence and chaos is the priority now we are too soft on the hong kong facts tolerance has to have a limit. The chinese Central Government should strike them hard. But do you know the result of the vote though i dont know the result yet ive been busy all day with work and. Official Media Coverage before hong kongs vote and of the turnout but not the results suggest speccing thought those results would be different it seems unlikely though that the actual results will change beijings attitude towards hong kong i dont think there will be any change in the positions on the chinese Central Government why because this is a matter of upmost importance to the child it really impacts on the one country 2 system it impacts on chinas sovereignty over hong kong already the government has expressed renewed confidence in chief executive kerry lam and it shows no sign of making concessions on any of the protesters demands Andrew Thomas al jazeera beijing and with the news hour life in london much more still to tell you about.

I know marion with the idea is to allow them to at least this is what the president is saying safeguard what he calls key installations water electricity hospitals and possibly police stations as well that it could also be extended to us safeguarding or patrolling the metro station so the a lot of the people in the opposition and people out here on the streets where we are going out of town are very unhappy about that they say that the army has already shown that it violates human rights when it was out for 10 days when a state of emergency was declared back in october at the end of october and they say that its not time yet to open the door such as that that the only way that this peace can be peace can be restored and security can be restored to chile is by implementing the social reforms that people out here on the streets are calling for right now were at a womens march there are thousands and thousands of women here today who are demanding that they to be included in the social reforms that have been widely discussed but they actually have pretty much left women at the bottom of the barrel if you like the women the issues that specifically pertain to womens rights and to the fact their inclusion in the new constitution and many many other things such as abortion abortion and and the fight against femicide remember this. Its the day that the world is commemorating the number of femicide that take place throughout the world on their concerns that if the protests continue that could be further violence already there have been these accusations of human rights abuses Amnesty International issuing a warning saying that Security Forces were using unnecessary and Excessive Force with the purpose of punishing protest is. Exactly was Human Rights Watch isnt going to put out its its report on tuesday and that is not suppose its not expected to be very flattering towards the government at all and in fact after hearing the words of senator on the vessel a man who belongs to the Political Party of the president saying well you know Human Rights Violations are a Necessary Evil if were going to restore what he calls normality then there certainly that raises concerns about war and more Human Rights Violations all right thank you very much from santiago chile and that america to you see a new era where the protests continuing but there have also been a 5th day demonstrations in colombia and more protests getting underway now people angry of the room and Economic Reforms and allegations of corruption alessandro she joins me now from bogota where people are already gathering in protest whats the mood like there.

Big this will be if if it will be again as big as it was last thursday another question is if were going to see again the kind of violence that weve seen thursday and friday when there were clashes with the Police Organizers are hoping that it will remain totally peaceful today they have reached an agreement with the city. To send antiriot police to control these demonstrations or just the regular police on friday you might remember that a curfew was imposed after bandoliers in that happened there looting in some parts of the city for now the atmosphere is absolutely a peaceful and face the this is also happening in the context of the International Day against violence against women which is also an important theme for the people who are protesting here given the fact that its a big issue here in colombia and across south america so were going to have to see just how big it is and how the day evolves thanks very much from bogota alessandra joining us now.

This drive to the airport and the legal battle the Drew International attention for a year and a half. This israel palestine director for Human Rights Watch are much sakit see very soon thank you has left israel. This is the 1st deportation since a 2017 law that bars entry for supporters of the boycott divestment and sanctions movement against israel human Israeli Government says scheck it has been active in the b. D. S.

After shuckers the british and many here are wondering who might be next human rights organizations say the this isnt doesnt target only who advocate a boycott but its a warning against any critic of the Israeli Occupation later because it is a palestinian working with Amnesty International and. He was denied the right to travel outside of the west bank in october and he says this is because of his work against israeli settlements the ban was imposed a couple of months after we released the campaign against Online Companies that were going to israeli settlements so this is obviously an attack not only against me but against all the critical voices that speak against what the Israeli Government is doing Israel Considers the b.

President donald trump ordered the pentagon to let a member of the navy who was convicted of misconduct keep his status and a case which led him to fire his Navy Secretary Navy Seal Edward Gallagher was convicted of posing for photographs with the body of a teenage eisel captive but cleared of murder the navy wanted to oust him from the Commando Unit defense secretary mark s. But said trying to intervene here peaceably in the case hoped before he gave the order to fire Richard Spencer on sunday gabriel is on a joins us live now from washington and so President Trump has been speaking about the firing of the Navy Secretary what more we learned. Yet trump is standing by his decision as commander in chief of the armed forces of the u. S. Military to basically defend this special forces navy seal. Soldier trump has been defending him for many many months now but as you mentioned its been a very controversial cases one analyst said its almost like trump is at war with some of his own military Leaders Within the armed forces despite the fact that the secretary of the navy and even the commander of the u. S. Special forces wanted to demote this navy seal navy seal as you mentioned that was acquitted of war crimes but was convicted of posing a trophy photo as its called with a dead person in iraq that is considered unbecoming in the u. S. Military the commanders wanted to kick him out of the special forces trump stepped in and said nope he will not be kicked out if he wants to retire hell retire with all of his on hers trump met with the bow garion Prime Minister in just the last couple hours and this is what trump had to say about it this is how he framed his support for this particular navy seal. Theres never been a president thats going to stick up for them and has like i have including the fact that we spent 2 and a half trillion dollars on rebuilding or. Some very unfair things were happening you let Sergeant Bergdahl go you let others go deluding a young gentleman now a person who president obama let go still tremendous amounts of classified information and all the Key Developments adam schiff the head of the House Intelligence Committee has put out a letter on the impeachment proceedings now what does he have to say about how that inquiry is is going to continue. Well is a fairly long letter more than one page when its printed out but i can tell you the headline is very clear its that the impeachment process against President Donald Trump is moving forward in the letter shift congressman schiff said that there is plenty of evidence out there in the last 2 weeks of hearings evidence that he says quote show the corrupt intent of President Trump and quote abuse of power both before and after that very famous july 25th telephone call between President Trump and zelinsky of ukraine so what shift is schiff is saying as we are going to be filing a report and that report will then go to the Judiciary Committee shortly after the holiday break that congress is on right now theyll come back from break lawmakers on december 3rd shortly thereafter this process will move according to the letter from ship to the Judiciary Committee and they will then take the next step in this impeachment process so if schiff said in the letter that they want to push this forward as quickly as possible because he does not want and the democrats do not want trump to delay this any further the democrats are saying both publicly and privately they hope to have an Impeachment Vote in the house of representatives before the in december. Thank you very much deborah zonda with the latest house of washington. Now the level of Greenhouse Gases in the atmosphere has hit a record high and shows no sign of slowing thats the finding of the u. N. Well logical organizations annual reports the concentration of Carbon Dioxide the main gas driving Climate Change hit 407. 00 parts per 1000000 last year thats a growth slightly above the decades average the other main gases also grew above average this puts at risk the uns own warning that to keep Global Warming below a Tipping Point of one and a half degrees where droughts and floods become more likely Carbon Emissions must be a net 0 and falling by 2030 in the new report Scientists Say the emissions wont even pay can till last year if current Climate Policies stay the same well joining me now via skype from North Carolina is andrew jones hes a codirector of the climate Modeling Organization climate interactive how disappointing is it to you that after all the warnings that weve had on Climate Change and of course the commitments made under the. Climate change agreement in paris that not only are we in a place where the level of Greenhouse Gases have failed to decline actually where were hitting new record highs. Weve been at this now 25 years of these new are in talks and we yet to really bring the missions down so the concentrations are going up and up really increases the pressure on next weeks meeting in madrid for a prop 25. 00 meeting of the u. N. To come up with stronger commitments from countries to get those emissions going down how do they come up with stronger commitments if f. Failing to meet existing commitments. Many of these countries have set up you know standards and goals for Renewable Energy for keeping coal in the ground and many of the countries actually are on track to meet those commitments i dont happen to be in the one that has the increasing standards but many of them actually are delivering upon the pledges that they made in the paris agreement. The i want to ask you about one point from the major logical report that you just mentioned that briefly whats interesting about this report is that it doesnt just look at the Carbon Emissions levels but it also looks at the concentration of these gases now explain to us that the distinction why is that important. So the concentration is how much stays in the atmosphere after we were burning coal oil and gas and that c o 2 in the atmosphere in the oceans and plants take some out but the amount that remains thats like the blanket over earth and the more we have in the concentrations the more that black it traps heat and then temperature goes up right now about one degree c. We want to keep it to 1. 5 but thats the stuff that stayed in the atmosphere thats creating all of the economic and ecological disruption that were seeing with wildfires and Sea Level Rise and so on you made a quick reference at the fact that youre in the United States and of course we know how president feels about Climate Change pulled out of that global agreement didnt he im just wondering about the impact you think this might have had on the paris climb agreement because the w. M. O. Is saying the gap between targets and reality are glaring and growing i mean how is the wind been completely knocked out of this agreement. Oh it seems that the wind is not completely out there are now countries coming together and many are the rumors are they will be increasing their commitments the United States has 15 percent of global emissions thats larger than that were 4 percent of the population but theres still another 85 percent that is being accounted for by pledges that we hope will get increased in madrid in a week what have to see what happens when were actually together there in madrid soon but our hope is that many of the countries of the world realize what needs to be done also here in the u. S. States and cities and corporations have really done a lot to pick up the slack and keep those emissions actually heading down so we wont entirely miss our pledges that weve made here in the United States so the momentum hasnt been completely lost on that note thank you from North Carolina andrew johns codirector of the climate Modeling Organization clime interactive youre welcome 5 more people are confirmed dead in kenya off the heavy flooding bringing the total number of deaths to 65 police say they were turning from a wedding in tanzania when that car was washed away the search is continuing for survivors in west pocket counting the region west hit with 52 dead several east african nations are being hit by heavy rain and more is now full cost scientists blame unusually high temperatures in the indian ocean we have to do is a quick look at people to move from the lower areas with a mudslide today and go to the Evacuation Centers because we dont know if it is going to rain and then we are going to get food and other relief and medical supplies to help those affected medicals.
