One day he says something, another day he says something. But i think lack of moral principle. Theres been widespread public outcry in the United States after a photograph emerged of a man and his baby daughter lying face down in a river after drowning as they tried to cross the Mexican Border into texas. The image has sparked more anger about the treatment of migrant families in detention centres and the us governments border policies. President trump said he hated seeing the image but blamed the oppositon for obstructing his border policies. Recently, the number of mexicans crossing the border has fallen, while there are increasing numbers from guatemala, honduras and el salvador. From there, our correspondent orla guerin sent this report. Just to warn you it does contain the photograph of the dead father and child. Searching the muddy waters of the rio grande, where hidden currents can so quickly claim lives. Many Migrant Deaths pass unnoticed or ignored. Not this time, because of a single stark image with the power to shock the world. A father and baby daughter from el salvador, oscar and valeria ramirez, her tiny arm around his neck. We met oscars grieving mother, rosa, at the family home in san salvador. She said they were poor in material things, but rich in love. Oscar sent her a photo when they reached mexico, father and daughter together in life, as in death. Valerias first word was papa. She would have been two next month. When they left, rosa was filled with dread. Translation as a mother, you get a feeling. I cried a lot when we said goodbye, because in my heart, i felt it was going to be the last time i would hug him. I told him i loved him very much, and to take care of himself. He told me the same. He said he wanted to help the whole family, and that, god willing, he would make it. And the last text he sent me was on saturday morning. He said he loved me very much, and that was the last message before he passed away. A day later he perished, with his daughter. His wife, tania, saw it all. Rosa is begging others not to go, as she begged her son. Translation my message is dont follow the dream that ends in death. I know everything is hard here, but life is valuable. Stay in your country and fight. But many are desperate to get away from no go neighbourhoods like oscars, where gangs are in control. The community here has been deeply affected by this tragedy. Will it stop others trying to make the same riskyjourney . Probably not. Many young salvadorans feel that reaching the United States is their only hope of finding a decentjob and a better life. Countless numbers from across Central America are willing to risk death for that new life. President trump has tried hard to stem the flow, backed by plenty of his countrymen. The president says open borders mean drownings. He is blaming the democrats, and gave this reaction to the photo of oscar and his daughter. I hate it, and i know it could stop immediately if the democrats change the law. They have to change the laws. And then that father, who probably was this wonderful guy, with his daughter, things like that wouldnt happen, because that journey across that river thatjourney across that river is a very dangerous journey. It was a journey Oscar Ramirez could not complete. He was just 25, but a dedicated family man who doted on his daughter. His mother told us she is very proud of her only son, and says this photo shows he fought for his child until his last breath. Orla guerin, bbc news, san salvador. Our correspondent Chris Buckler has sent us this update from the us border with mexico, where the bodies of Oscar Martinez ramirez and his daughter were found. Images have registered shock and democrats are appealing to donald trump to look at the image of a father and his daughter who drowned asi father and his daughter who drowned as i tried to make their way to a better life in america. But the president and many of his supporters believe strongly in tougher immigration policies. Heres the cheers whenever at rallies he talks about the idea of dotting a wall and he wants more barriers like this. Built all along where america meets mexico. He believes it is that that will save those. If you take a look through the bars, you can see above the legal crossing point where people make their way across to mexico every day and people come back the other way. But below it, is the river where Oscar Martinez ramirez and his daughter died. A legal crossing point to make an illegal crossing point but they felt they had no choice. They had to go out of desperation. Tens of thousands of people have to make that choice every single month. They try to make their way into america and are pretended by customs, Border Patrol gods. But perhaps that is as much about the countries they attractively as it does about america, the place without trying to make a new life. Where they are trying. Chris buckler on the us mexico border.

The first of two big debates between all twenty democrat us president ial hopefuls is under way in miami. Half the candidates are debating on wednesday, followed by the other half on thursday. Our correspondent, jane obrien joins us now from miami. We have just seen the human cost of the problems on the border, its been debated in washington, and now been debated in washington, and now been debated in washington, and now been debated by your tonight. Where you are tonight. As a sign about how intractable this problem is that none of the characters on stage have really got any answer for it. They were asked by the moderators what would they do on day one of presidency to tackle the Immigration Crisis . And while admitting that the death of the father and the young girl crossing into texas was a tragedy, was outrageous, and send the families shouldnt be separated at the border. They really didnt offer any tangible proposals to tackle the migrant problem at its source also how they would secure the borders. I think thats more of an illustration of just how think thats more of an illustration ofjust how ever caught this is and how big a political hot potato this whole issue is and why it continues to be. They are debating a wider idea of topics that are in miami, who, for you, is standing up so far . Standing out. Senator elizabeth warren, she is really carving out her position as the leader of the progressive packed on this particular night. She is one of the candidates who believes that in order to fix the system, you have to restructure it. In other words, restructure it. In other words, restructure the economy, restructure the way the country is governed. Other candidates are staking out claims to the more pragmatic lane of the Democratic Party, saying you dont have to blow everything up to fix it, you can take what exists and improve american lives by improving the system as it is already. These other two divergent wings of the Democratic Party that we are now seeing illustrated by these two women. I think generally, the women on the stage are having the best night. , they have certainly made the best points about healthcare and reproductive rights, abortion, hot button issue in america at the moment. Were a range of subject but at the same time, we are seeing the pragmatists versus the aggressive starting to emerge. I noticed the President Trump has voiced his opinion, roaring in capital letters, of course was not of course. He is paying attention isnt it . Isnt he . What if unremarkable as the candidates themselves are hardly mentioned him. This debate was supposed to be all about trying to find the candidate who will be donald trump. And so far theyve argued with themselves between themselves over policy differences but they havent taken on the president. And heres the gorilla in the room. It is all about beating him and the fact that they havent even really mentioned his name or criticised what he is done, i think is quite telling. Thank you very much.

Sea watch 3 is carrying 42 migrants, including women and children, whom it rescued in the mediterranean two weeks ago. Despite the risk of heavy fines, the ships captain says she had to head to italy because the migrants are exhausted. Ramzan karmali reports. The charity ship, sea watch 3, heading to the italian island of lampedusa. From a distance it looks like any other vessel heading to shore, but this boat is carrying 42 migrants it rescued two weeks ago from a rubber boat in the mediterranean. Since that rescue, its been sailing back and forth off the coast of italys southernmost island. An exhausted captain described what happened when officials climbed on board. They have checked our ship certificates and the passports of the crew, and now they are waiting for further instructions from their superiors. I really hope they will take a rescuees off the ship. But italys interior minister, matteo salvini, was furious the ship had even entered italian waters, and vowed the dutch registered vessel would not be allowed to disembark. He also said that he had lodged a diplomatic protest with the netherlands. Sea watch, a Ship Operating outside the law, is endangering the lives of dozens of immigrants for a little political game. For a little disgusting and shady political game. They are the ones who are playing with the lives of human beings. Italian authorities had earlier warned they would impose heavy fines or even impound the ship. But the charity that runs the boat says the captain of sea watch 3 had no alternative but to head for lampedusa. It is also accused european institutions of not fulfilling their responsibilities to safeguard people rescued at sea. This isnt the first time this ship has been used to rescue migrants from the mediterranean. And also not the first time it has angered italian authorities. The last time it took assurances from six European Countries, that they would take on the rescued migrants before it was allowed to dock. And unless European Countries can agree on a plan to deal with this crisis in the long term, similar stand offs off the italian coasts are likely to be repeated.

Actually, i feel pity for their ignorance. And their political sort of thinking. Its very narrow minded. You once said that you would be interested in meeting President Trump. Has he ever asked you for a meeting . No. Frankly speaking, his emotions are also a little bit. It is, too complicated. What do you mean by that . What do you think of him in office . One day he says something, another day he says something. But i think lack of moral principle. Or when he became president , he expressed america first. Thats wrong. America, it should take the global responsibility. You once said that you would be open to a female successor. Thats also possible. I think it is better for the british to leave in the union. The campaign to leave in the union. The campaign to leave in the union. The campaign to leave used a quote of yours to the goal should be that migrants return and help to rebuild the country.

It was a visit to support the Lgbt Community, an opportunity for the duke of cambridge to listen, but also an insight into some personal concerns. The Albert Kennedy trust, or akt, helps young lgbt people who are made homeless after being rejected by their families. During the visit, Prince William was asked how he would feel if one of his own children was gay or lesbian. Id fully support, you know, whatever decision they make. But it does worry me from a parent point of view how much how many barriers, you know, hateful words, persecution and discrimination that might come with it. Thats the bit that really troubles me a little bit. But thats for all of us to try to help correct, and make sure we can put that to the past. It was a candid moment from a Senior Member of the royal family, a recognition his own three children might find it harder to be accepted as gay or lesbian because of the public role theyve been born into. Hes willing, with his whole heart, to fully support his children, and hes willing as well to support our Lgbt Community as well. And that, across the world, it would really change peoples minds. We are normal people. It would really influence a better kind of like safe space, safe environment, for lgbt people.
