In the United States and all around the world well we begin the day with Hurricane Dorian a storm that has forever changed the way some people measure time the hurricane is now moving along the coast of the u. S. States of south and North Carolina a category 2 category 3 hurricane deadly and destructive but it is a shadow of what it was just a few days ago when it became a category 5 storm in the atlantic and then slammed into the bahamas stalling there for almost 2 days the devastation so great Authorities Say it will take a generation to recover residents say the impact of the storm is so deep they are now referring to life in the bahamas dorian and post during the seemingly Impossible Task of providing aid shelter and food to everyone in need has begun along with efforts to rescue the wives dorrian did not wash away. In the hearts of the hurricane volunteer rescuers struggle to find what theyre looking for but then dangling from the attic of a home life trapped by the storm one by one a family imagines from the darkness. The more fortunate are already returning home to dorians destruction. The island familys house was flooded everything destroyed all they want for to grafs my wife. She said she turned off she said the window not the front door she said one driver. This was the scene when the islands made their daring escape clutching their most prized possessions. Paradise has been pulverized thousands of homes on abaco island torn apart just tossed around as the storm surge locals distraught. Because it is everything is gone. No buying no stores. No take at least 4 to 5 years to complete only moksha but i dont know how long it takes for the rest. In this you know nothing at all everything is gone just body. For those left behind putting the bahamas back together is expected to cost billions and the government says allies have promised to pay chain i spoke with President Donald Trump who has expressed the support of. The assistance of the United States of america for the bahamas and time. Back at the island family home offers of help been pouring into. This. Great so many people. Actually no. Big 23 people have offered so much. You know were all wearing the same clothes that we escaped is how innocent. So i think. So its really good to get support and know that you can rebuild a new 2 that after surviving the 2nd strongest hurricane on record he and his family a lucky to be a life horrible story is there for more on the situation in the bahamas im joined now by journalist Kimberly Mullins she is in freeport on grand bahama its good to see you kimberly you know there are reports of people people in the bahamas saying that when you walk outside anywhere and everywhere you can smell death in the air. What are you hearing i mean its its just unimaginable what the reports are im hearing were with you i with that ice now do you smell me and sunny. Now im in my area per se but yesterday they were throughout the out and i. Was like what is that im somebody who works in a funeral home so i was like its pretty familiar and i dont like it but at the same time we cant. Conclusions because there are a lot of animals on the you mean society and suffered tremendously a lot of animals some are some are asking that theres an art. You know i know of people whose who had to say i have dogs lapped and we can only hope and then i say hey my backyard didnt make it so theres its that putrid and i could disparage it its future. And you know there have been images of people emerging from homes that you know people who hadnt been seen for days so theres still hope out there that missing people can be fail and what do you hear whats the latest on rescue attempts. Im not sure about past 2 exams at this point i know theyre still course canvassing the air Police Officers and knocking on persons doors you know a lot of people of missing persons reports were with supposed to do at this point now that he can actually get to the Police Station because that means underwater during the storm so that our command center and me mum could not work properly here in the bahamas which is the National Emergency Management Agency so a lot of those people you know were trying to connect them with their families as best as best as we can but rescue efforts at this point they just need billy a lot of them who able to manage through this or theyre like you know it doesnt make sense rescuing me. We just need the state would get us you would get us in water lets just clean out we have we have our mail boat which is coming in from the capital which are transporting people out of the island as long as also they are bringing bringing us some food and water some supplies red cross out on the island to date on the salvation that on the island today are all bombs to dance for us is assisting that. Have those items and we have a couple International Organizations who are actually met with red tape you know they cant get so they dont know the allens right now because the government only want to work for the few organizations so you know theres a lot of a lot of things going up and now right now rast youth is still continuing it is fashion that people who need medical assistance on the planet they dont have water because we know we dont have water on the island which is a big problem so the clinics the hospital they need water clean water. And. The things that are needed right now that are needed most are they getting through or as you just said or were talking about rigged or really blocking things were. Really needed. What theyre doing what the government is doing is taxing. People who put together a private ad relief efforts so if they dont want to recognize you as helping it in there are certain list of charities organizations theyre actually telling you hey you have to pay your do you have to pay your taxes and at a time like this so far weve also heard that the government has put in a 90 big agency order which is that you can prove hey your house is damage and you want to bring its own as you can in terms of the a plane or or a boat you have 90 days 90 days with people whove lost everything now you know they can find a passport. And only are met with that that. Before you run out of Time Commitment to the fact that you were able to talk tonight. Means that some of the Telecommunications Network is working i mean whats the state of that is everyone able to reach the people that they want to reach in all the islands and that thats the most unfortunate part so ill explain it like this quickly i have powers for this for my home was not compromised and one of the little one of the few areas that they didnt experience letting this storm happen in 3 days is we had water wind and we had. And i say water i mean flooding and we have rain of course and yet to brave the elements i had power because we have an industrial generator in this home. So i had service because i have a board of will wipe out advice from a lot we have to telecommunications company. Com Companies One of them failed one of them stayed up thats the only way some of people who were able to be rescued others couldnt even get a message out. In Freeport Bahamas tonight giving us the latest on the situation there in the our lives for we appreciate your time and your insights so. Thank you take care. Well coming up later on the day blood is apparently not thicker than bricks the british Prime Ministers own brother today quit parliament and the cabinet but not even rumors of a family feud have changed Boris Johnson stance on briggs can you make a promise to day to the British Public that you will not go back to brussels and ask for another delay to back that yes and so you can add would you rather be dead. Monstrous despicable that is how a judge in germany today described it to child sex abusers as they were sentenced to prison for sexually molesting more than 30 children over 2 decades some of their victims were just toddlers the sex crimes took place at a campsite near the telma detmold in North Western Germany Police there are being criticized for failing to intervene soon. Sivia sexual abuse of children and more than 200. 00 cases both andrea and mary were as were found guilty of abusing more than 30 children the main victim and own 8 year old foster child the sentences are close to the maximum penalty in germany but its likely the 2 men will never be fully released one of the defense lawyers accepted the verdict. Cuts in government in the end its 13 years plus preventative detention and that was to be expected ive stated at other times if not in this case when. For years the authorities received tips about the potential pedophilia of the main suspect it was only in october last year that one of the girls mothers reported the crimes to the police that happened at the campsite where he lived the trial considered one of the biggest cases of sexual abuse in germany cost outrage and raised many questions including how andrea sui was allowed to foster a child when he was unemployed and living at a campground and despite the fact that he had been under suspicion of Sexual Assault the police also came in for criticism after evidence a suitcase full of d. V. D. s with child pornography and abuse disappeared after the men were arrested it is a protest like this verdict should not mean that the whole story is now all over and done with yes we have convicted to 2 principal accused the 2 main perpetrators who did this to the children themselves in the background there are people who could have helped save many children from these experiences one can even though the 2 men have been sentenced to 12 and 13 years the court labored them both dangerous offenders meaning they can be held indefinitely past their sentences. Well the British Government says it will comply with a lol delaying brights if the legislation passes parliament and that legislation is expected to become law next monday today Prime Minister Boris Johnson suffered yet another major breaks that loss and this one was personal his own brother today joe johnson who campaigned for britain to remain in the European Union during the 2016 referendum when he announced that he is leaving the conservative party and stepping down as Education Minister in his brothers cabinet. Brothers yes but brothers in brechts know when the day a defiant johnson repeated his montreal that britain must leave the European Union on october the 31st and that a general election is needed to renu the brics it manned. Well i can say and i hate mike brooks i dont want to go on about is he one i dont i dont want an election i dont i dont want to lecture to but frankly i cant see any other way the only way to get this thing done to get this thing moving is to make that decision do you want Big Government to take us out of the table 31st or do you want jamie colby a little cloudy to go to that crucial summit in brussels oh table the 17th effectively hand over control to the east or and that was the british Prime Minister there to talk about Europe Germany and brits and im joined here at the big table tonight by met in our very hes a member of the German Parliament the bonus talk from the social democrat see also sits on the bonus Talk Committee for European Union affairs where breaks it course continues to dominate the agenda its good to have you back on the show i want to ask you were reports late last night after the house of commons passed a bill to request another extension to break said that the European Union may not be willing to grant another extension i mean can you confirm anything tonight is the u. S. Or is the e. U. Now less likely to say yes to a delay. Well thanks for having me again im not a spokesperson for the European Union i think if the messed up policy in politics in the u. K. Would lead to something to wanting a delay. 2 of jenner probably some people would listen to that very carefully is that the feeling you get even even in the German Parliament that there is a willingness to in of say yes yes again well at this point we dont even know whats going to happen because the Prime Minister obviously its difficult to foresee what his next action is but if we do have the choice in the European Union as between no deal scenario at the end of next month or a delay that would make it possible for the British Parliament to have more time to to take action then i would suggest to give another 3 months ok the u. K. Prime minister has repeatedly said that his brags that minister is carrying with them new suggestions on how to solve for example the irish back start Problem Solutions to do this impasse now Michel Barnier the e. U. s breaks it man says he hasnt seen any plans weve also been told that the u. K. Prime minister says that most of the parliaments in the major e. U. Countries have been given these plans have you seen any plans from Boris Johnson no i havent and there arent any there is no invisible border that would fit with the criteria of the Single Market it is impossible we have been talking about this for years now there is nothing new just the Prime Ministers new the Prime Minister is new and what does it do the 2 that the trust in the goshi ations when the Prime Minister says there are plans out there and yet you know that thats not true well to be quite frank i be glad if we would have some sort of bargaining situation but. Now we dont even know whether democracy as we know it in westminster will work next week so lets wait for that and after that i think there will be very pragmatic talks about anything but if the Prime Minister is seriously willing to to lead his country in a new constitutional crisis it be a totally different case do you believe that mr ogrady that there would be a willingness within within germany and also within the e. U. To reopen negotiations even a little bit negotiations. And even if there was a willingness this is a consensus between 27 countries i think you shouldnt overestimate it the deal were having now with obviously was made last year on this one is. It is difficult to difficult to think of an alternative to do that and it is a good compromise a compromise towards the british position more than to the european position there are reports that Boris Johnson wants to change the u. K. s defense pledges in the current braggs it deal in other words were hearing from london that the Prime Minister wants to create leverage in other words to threaten that the u. K. Will not cooperate with the e. U. In security if it doesnt get in a vis the you know in answer to the backstop in ireland for example have you heard anything new i havent heard anything and lets see whether this Prime Minister is still Prime Minister at the end of next month its its super difficult to to to go in theory of all the alternatives if we dont even know whether this Prime Minister would act in accordance with some something that will be passed by the British Parliament tomorrow. Thats thats a serious stuff now but youre watching it like like the rest of us whats going on right now in london we know that johnson is going to call for early elections again next monday and there are predictions that parliament will say yes to that and that he could maybe win elections in october do you see that happening i mean i saw on your Facebook Page today you said it was something is populist politics what were seeing right now in london do you think that were going to be dealing with a Prime Minister Boris Johnson come october 31st if their early elections in the United Kingdom by the rules and laws of the unite and the constitution of the United Kingdoms and mr of johnson would win the tory party would win this election and stay in downing street number 10 thats fine thats ok what would be a serious crisis is if he would even if next week obviously by a majority of his of his office parliament. Being ordered to extend. The deadline of the of the end of october and hes not. Not act accordingly then we have a super serious problem. One final question youre also the spokesperson for your partys Parliamentary Group on u. S. And north American Relations and you were just in the United States for several weeks the u. S. Vice president has been visiting ireland and he caused a little bit of controversy by saying that the United States stands completely behind Boris Johnsons breaks in policy what does that do to germany and the e. U. Use stance on drugs when they see the u. S. Vice president standing in ireland saying were for brechts it Boris Johnson style well the government of the United States is a problem not only in this case but also in other on other occasions but there are members of congress on the democratic side also on the republican side that see a very very seriously and i would say much more realistic than the administration at this point and they see the problems of a new border and again coming up between north island in the republic of ireland and being really serious about not let it having letting that happen so youre not worried about us interference in the power in the budget process i am because they are interfering all the time but i think its not the u. S. Position generally there are other voices in the United States as well all right verdi member of the German Parliament the buddhist talk with the social democrats as always we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us thank you thanks for having me. Will the rooster or the cock is the National Symbol of france so youll understand why the nation let out a collective cock a doodle doo today after a judge handed down his decision on maurice the rooster or reeses owner was sued by her neighbors who claim that the roosters Early Morning crows were 10 to mount a Noise Pollution and in a game of legal chicken the plaintiff in the defendant faced off in court where today the judge ruled that maurice the village cock can continue to crow as he likes in france tonight it is clear once again he really rules the roost. This is more youths quite possibly know all francis most famous worster while he was it home having a pretty regular day his own a you kareen fi saw was was it Court Getting the good news in that mall these was officially off the hook oh was thank the courts rolling means mel lease the rooster can continued to a cock a doodle doo out the crack of dawn cocky interest so i was said she had a hunch she would win the case but she was careful not to get too cocky she moved her school so i was amazed because even though i expected a positive answer that i was a little scared anyway and i am telling myself at least i havent done it for nothing it was alone story i fought for over 2 years and now you have to move on no thats of was he said yeah yeah im the lawyer representing timor geese was equally satisfied with the courts rolling he said it was a rear piece of commonsense i think it will strengthen in local elected officials and the courts because to dave people acting in bad faith well they will have to think twice before they go to their mayor to ask them to solve a case all before they go to a quarter call the in 1st so has lived on the small island of all a hone of france as atlantica coast for 35 years 2 years ago her a new neighbors were so upset with mall heats is a 5 a yet morning call they decided to sue oh you know the case struck a nerve with many attracting support locally and from a broad other a cock owners came to court and support and more than 120000 people signed a petition urging authorities to leave more cleese alone colvin felt so says she hopes her case will spark a wider debate in french society. Just that i hope my story will make some people talk a lot and that it will make people think you have to stop complaining about nothing.
