Rumbling into paris why french farmers have a brief with the government. But 1st protests against the United Nations are spreading in the eastern democratic republic of congo in beni where the rest started people have driven the car skids have a man killed during demonstrations around the streets ahead of his burial in the past 2 days 6 people have died protesters are angry at what they see as a failure of u. N. Peacekeepers to protect them from armed rebels who have killed dozens of people this month. Well around 100 kilometers away in goma police have fired live rounds into the edit clear protesters people also tried to steal the u. N. Facilities there but they were blocked by Security Forces so the price. This is spread from benny to other cities tembo is one and as weve mentioned goma that is where our correspondent Catherine Sawyer joins us from and catherine within the last 20 years or so of unrest and indeed the un presence in east india are see there have been outbursts like this in the past or do you get a sense that this is likely to be sustained this protest against the u. S. Presence in east india. Well martin this certainly a lot of frustration a lot of anger the people weve been talking to here in goma and ben in beni saying that theyre going to continue protesting until they see what theyre demanding for be effected by this very difficult to see how their demands for the u. N. Force to be pools out of the d. R. Sees very to see very difficult to see how that demand is going to be effected because the u. N. Body is still a very important figure when it comes to contain the security situation in eastern b. R. C. Which is very volatile indeed here in goma as you mentioned there was also processed this morning people saying that theyre protesting supporting whats going on in beni they tried to get to a u. N. Mission Logistic Center they were repulsed by Police Used Tear Gas to disperse them and also a short lived bullets in the air in beni as you mentioned there is a procession that is going on a vireo is going to happen of one of the protesters who was killed on saturday this was a very popular young man an activist one of the people who organized the protests who was shot on saturday by a Police Officer the Police Officer himself was killed on the same day by an angry mob so people there are saying theyre going to march to this place where the protest was shot before heading for his burial days alone not want to see the u. N. At all because the u. N. Is not protecting them and what about the position of the state in kinshasa what about president relates to security who had valve in the run up to elections that he was going to get a grip on the situation in the east of the country and stamp out this intractable violence. What he did that was one of his main compay promises that hes going to deal with the security situation in fact on monday he did speak and he authorized a joint operation against a. D. F. A joint operation of the un and the military against a. D. F. There has been an operation going on since october but people are saying that is not enough even joint operations are not enough there have been many of fences that have been carried out over the years but the situation remains the same i remember a few years ago i saw how the democrats if by the military offensive against a. D. s and the government came out and said these people are defeated and then 2 weeks later they came out to a village and attached and killed so many people using machetes so a lot of people are saying that president ial security needs to do more than needs to be more sightedness theyre saying that the military seems is organized because why is it when an operation is going on in goma right now rebels are able to still come to villages and attack people so they want a president to do more than just speak catherine live in govern eastern d.

City where the good largest number of dead bodies have been recovered. Thats right this is you have to this has been the hardest hit because it was closest to the epicenter of the earthquake about 10 miles off shore from here and driving through the city in the light of day you can see that there are many many buildings which were appear to be to the untrained eye structurally damaged we were just watching a lady who had gone back to her home we could see her through the open wall of her bedroom she was retrieving clothing from the wardrobe trying to. Presumably make life a little comfortable for her family here where we are at the to this football stadium if the camera swings over to my right over here youll see that there is a tent city that is springing up here. Lets what we have found to be hundreds of families that spent last night here and presumably will spend tonight here as well because the work of inspecting the homes to certify whether they are safe to return to is ongoing they are hoping that the municipality will be sending intern is to their houses today. That is what the days going to be spent on here people are going to be going back to their homes retrieving things waiting for inspectors and engineers hoping that tonight perhaps they can spend spend the night into was. This is a big issue in the next 24 hours because tonight there is a rainfall cost and all day tomorrow life is going to be very difficult in this tent city after that and death all the albanians managing pretty much on their own no all they need of are receiving assistance from outside. There is a lot of help from the outside i believe greece was the 1st country to respond with rescue teams to them had been operating overnight since yesterday retrieving a number of living survivors survivors of the earthquake but also of course there were many people who didnt make it we saw one of the albanian teams retrieve folks from the hotel here last night turkey croatia both macedonia all the neighboring countries have sent help of one kind or another i think i think is going to need a lot more help in the weeks ahead as they try to solve the housing problem for essential the refugees from this earthquake they are internally displaced people they need a practical solution to housing for those people very quickly.

For the Opposition Labor Party leader Jeremy Corbyn says he has got proof that the u. K. s Health System is up for sale in trade talks with the United States he says that a 451. 00 page document is evidence that the Prime Minister Boris Johnson discussed offering the us access to the n. H. S. That mr johnson had previously denied the allegation labor has promised to safeguard the n. H. S. If it wins next month in next months election. Now we know the truth when johnson says get don its a fraud on the british people this is the reality years of bob negotiations in h. S. These are for sale this election is now a fight for the survival of our National Health service ok we can speak to paul brennan yes paul burrell is there for us live in london 1st of all paul i think its important if we get a sort of explain as briefly as we can why the n. H. S. Is such an emotive issue for most britons. The n. H. S. Is a hugely emotive issue in this election because it goes to the fundamental. Desire to receive people i think to have universal health care i mean the affection with which the n. H. S. Is health is enormous 90 percent believe in the founding principles of the n. H. S. In recent opinion poll that is the past should be free at the point of contact in regardless. Of the ability to. Question is how to pay for that cat in an n. H. Where costs are going up the price of drugs is going up and the reality is that the conservatives have a very different perspective on that from labor despite that d Boris Johnson the Prime Minister has been absolutely adamant so far in this Election Campaign that the n. H. S. Is not up for sale youll remember the latest debate that took place so we could go through which he said it was an absolute invention when confronted by Jeremy Coleman d on some redacted papers an absolute invention of the n. H. S. Was even on the table he said that in no circumstances in which the government or any conservative government would put the n. F. L. N. H. S. On the table in any trade negotiations to fast forward to today and the labor party has issued this 451 unredacted pages of trade minutes dating back about 2 years and 6 rounds of discussions which labor says proves that the n. H. S. Does form pots all the governments planning if you like for a future trade agreements with america its not all to do with the n. H. S. There are plenty of other issues in there as well but the highlighting parts that the labor emphasizing today is pates and issues for example the idea that longer patents could push up the price of drugs for people using them in the n. H. S. An example was given of a drug that would cost 1000. 00 pounds but 1400. 00 today costing closer to 9000. 00 if it was under the. American Pricing System and you can see that the denial of Boris Johnson was attempted to be torn apart by labor party by and he said theres absolutely no way its on the table Barrie Gardner the labor shadow whole circus says its a very long winded way of saying no. Paul brennan live in london thank you very much right to Guinea Bissau now where the former Prime Minister is in fact 2 former Prime Ministers one Domingo Pereira he looks are taking the lead in the president ial election it looks as though theyll be a runoff with another one the early results are suggesting that prayer has got 40 percent of the vote but there is likely to be a 2nd round which will be in december listening to our correspondent nicholas our hes in the capital bizarre can you confirm then that weve got there and it seems m. Barlow is as the front runners who are now have to compete again in a runoff election. Thats right the leading party the p i g c and its candidate domingo seymour spitted on are in the lead but they didnt gather enough votes to win in one 1st round so there will be a 2nd round on december 29th and that will be against outsider political outside of albeit former Prime Minister and bellows he soco this i spoke to one of the Campaign Managers of domingos who is fair who is disappointed but says he accepts the results of the vote hes disappointed because there was so much money thrown at this campaign on both counts as a matter of fact marching on the embattled camp and on the other camp they were hoping to really make it to rain one round but of course many people here wondering where did all that money come from because merchants you can see right behind me people are protesting and these are members of the Election Commission theyre protesting because they havent been paid the state coffers are empty in this country are most people live on less than 2. 00 a day and thats whats at stake in this election a new president that could jumpstart. A government that has not been functioning for the past 5 years martin and clearly the incumbent has been has lost out Vice President as is out. There is these 2 front runners and represent a change a shift in the political culture that might deliver for the people and give the precise. Whats interesting in this particular election martine is weve seen 2 different candidates who are either the historical connect the samoans domingo per appealing to unites the population and then theres the outsider and bellows to soco appealing to a proportion of the population that wed left out by by what they see what they perceive as a Political Party that no longer represents their interest weve seen these candidates really or the Election Results reflect ethnic divisions arrested line so a lot of people philosophies for instance are made in cows that are voting for those who soco and others the balance a which make you know that the ruling class if you see it in be so really behind the militia domingo pair are so so beneath this election there is this issue of ethnicity and so the challenge for whoever will become the next president come december 29th when there will be a 2nd round is to try to unite this population that feels that their political elites no longer represent their interests and when their interest is very basic is access to schools access electricity Running Water those basic needs that people here wanted and need so we expect now both candidates to come out and address the voters i mean that the campaign hasnt ended is just the beginning of a 2nd round martin all right thanks for that because its not that live in the capital of Guinea Bissau besides.
