Hit albania in decades topples buildings and injures dozens of people. One of my Climate Change matters more to than the economy to most of british voters. But 1st lets go to georgia where protesters are attempting to block people from entering polman this happening of course in the capital tbilisi they have been demonstrating for weeks now they want change to the electoral System Police of use water cannon to try to break them up but so far they are refusing to move so we can go live now to our correspondent there robin for us a walker is outside Parliament Whats the situation and all the protests is managing to maintain their presence and indeed. To block people from getting into parliament. Team right now you can probably see just behind me in those Yellow Jackets in those Yellow Jackets the Georgian Police who have formed their own court to know around the sides entrances to the Main Parliament building theyve put up yellow buses said to block the roads to stop and in and anticipated attempts by the opposition to prevent the governing party in peace from attending a session this morning inside parliament this is how things looked last night. Too which is a position wants to show that the government wont be put given breaking its promise of and looked. After it failed to approve a system of proportional representation and elections street rallies against the government and its informal only god. If it is really becoming the norm its an absolute must for the country to have Electoral Reform which would give all your parties the fair ground and then people could choose whatever they want in the government so no matter how harsh the government behaves whether they use the police or whatever we are going to. Be very tough on our right to demonstrate is repeated that tactic of putting up tents outside parliament camps last week was swiftly cleared by riot police. This is the 2nd its. Something of a symbolic its heads to disrupt parliament to locate the street. Police are over here. Sure that nobody it seems to have looks back on the gates but the opposition basically saying that this parliament lacks legitimacy given that it reneged on that promise of Electoral Reform. Judges governing party says no changes to the electoral system before 2020 would be forthcoming time so fast they have to wait until 2024. Thats your message to the opposition this is the most to the opposition. The government argues protest is a just supporters of its discredited United National movement but that underestimate the strength of public. Its never happened before in. Different Political Parties are united and we are i mean Civil Society and Political Parties are uniting to have proportional actions is that because we know that we dont want one marriage rule we want everyone to have they are rotting problem. The government hopes this protest movement. Is poor it catches the imagination of the nation. All right robin well with that so what then are we seeing this Unprecedented Coalition of opposition parties plus Civil Society and how representative of the general population are they how many people support the cause for Electoral Reform. Its always difficult to gauge the strength of Public Opinion polls that weve seen reliable polls suggest that this government does not enjoy a large degree of support from the general population having said that the Main Opposition Party is also deeply unpopular and i think thats the way the government likes to couch this it basically says that the people outside the building or the United National movement will formally in power but its we were hearing then from this its more than just the opposition main party its. A collection of different Political Parties and Civil Society groups the question is whether. The public will come out to support this movement because its difficult to get. People excited about legislative reform its its not something thats that sort of tangible for people i would like to mention as well that d what happened this morning is that again the riot police moved in and clear the streets once again of this of these protesters and the government as well see soon report is in no mood to compromise simply saying the topic is now closed no more room for discussion but i get the impression that this political crisis at the moment is in no sign of letting up and the opposition is hopeful that it will be able to continue with this momentum whether its more protests like we saw yesterday or other forms of actions to remind this government that they havent forgotten on the promise of Electoral Reform and they want the government to acknowledge that and do something about it we know that the International Diplomatic community as well has been putting a lot of pressure emphasis on trying to get the government all sides in fact to think about how to compromise because the problem in this country now is that there is so much. Division within the political system how the riced polarized society and a lot of distrust in the political process all right robin thank you for that robin for a walk of the live in tbilisi.
