Allfemale runoff for the tory leadership. And, another Fatal Shooting of a black man at the hands of a white Police Officer in the u. S. This time, the tragic aftermath is live streamed on facebook for all the world to see. It is good to have you with us. Tonight, germany is getting a new Legal Definition of what constitutes rape. The aim is to modernize the law to codify the principle of no means no. The old definition only applied if the victim, believe it or not, tried to physically fight off the attacker and could prove that. The campaign for change gathered speed earlier this year after new years eve attacks in the city of cologne and other towns across germany, where many women were sexually assaulted by refugees. Today, the city of cologne in the city of cologne, an iraqi man was given a oneyear suspended sentence for Sexual Assault for his role in those attacks, but he is one of the few to be convicted. In fact, hes the first. Campaigners hope that by bringing convictions for Sexual Assault and rape in line with modern definitions, it will be easier when the new law comes into force. The law was widely supported in the german parliament. Opposition parties raised some concerns, but almost all lawmakers welcomed broadening the definition of rape. The german minister of Family Affairs said the changes were long overdue. The passing of this law bill today in the bundestag is a huge step forward. If proven guilty, all rapists in germany will not be punished. That was not the case previously. Now victims will be encouraged to file charges. They will be taken seriously. Until now, the victim had to have used force to defend themselves in order for rape to be punishable as rape. Saying simply no was not enough. As a result, very few reported rapes are investigated in germany, and only a fraction of those cases actually lead to convictions. Thats why activists like christina have fought for years to have the principle of no means no included in sexual offense laws. Compared to many, many other countries, germany has an unbelievably oldfashioned and backward law on sexual offenses. Thats why no means no is a great solution. One of the triggers for the reform where the new years eve attacks in cologne, where dozens of women were sexually assaulted and hardly any of the perpetrator so so far have been punished. The new law will take effect this fall, when no will indeed mean no and sexual groping will be punishable. Some say there is still work to be done. We want to empower women, by expanding the law, but we still need to do a lot more. That better counseling, better support, for every victim of a sexual offense. Its a horrible experience, often with a lifelong trauma, and thats why its important that we lawmakers enact appropriate legislation. Counselors at centersor women around the country say its about time something was done. They hope the new law will mean victims of Sexual Assault in germany will finally have the confidence to come forward. Anchor britains next Prime Minister will be a woman. The conservative mps eliminated the last man standing in the race. It happened today in their second round of voting. Votes in alphabetical order. Michael gove, 46 votes. Andrea leadsom, 84 votes. Theresa may, 199 votes. Therefore, michael gove, having the lowest number of votes, has been eliminated from the ballot. Reporter so interior minister theresa may seen here is way out in front. She campaigned for britain to stay in the eu, and will now take on brexit. She and Andrea Leadsom will face a final vote by the partys wider membership in september. Anchor lets get our correspondent in london. Good evening to you. Here we are. Theresa may is the front runner. She had strong majorities in this vote today. Does she have the b in the bag . Reporter no, she does not have itn the bag. She is the clear favorite. With her experience as home secretary for several years. But then again, the tory members are the ones to decide, and they may want somebody else, somebody who campaigned for brexit, which would be Andrea Leadsom. Also, she is socially quite conservative, for example, she does not support the gay marriage bill. This is something that a lot of conservative Party Members are actually, really quite like. Its not yet over, this race. Anchor its not yet over. I have to throw this curveball that you. Theres been some speculation today that theresa may might actually be the one to keep britain inside the eu, that once she is Prime Minister, she will delay the whole process, and eventually no brexit will take place. What is your read on that . Reporter im not sure this could take place. She has so far side, brexit is said, brexit is brexit, and she would not advocate for a second referendum and would not advocate early elections. If she was elected Prime Minister, she would trigger article 50, which would start the negotiations by the end of the year. So she has given a fairly clear timeline as to what would happen, and starting negotiations at the end of the year, beginning of next year, so it would be quite surprising if she did change her mind. Anchor speaking of changing their mind, what about michael gove . He is now out of the race. Thats a big surprise, if we consider what wealked about a week ago. Reporter well, mps have really had enough of this backstabbing, and michael gove would have been seen as somebody who is not trustworthy. He has maintained for years that he does not want to become Prime Minister, that he doesnt have it in him, in his own words, and then he changed his mind at the last second and did not support Boris Johnson, who from Party Members, as well as mps, would have been the clear favorite. That sort of shakespearean move eliminated one of his closest allies and closest personal friends, and i think a lot of mp s, though they rate s skills highly, hes one of the big intellectuals of the conservative party, but they thought this was a step too far, and now somebody is needed who did not take pt in al this political assassinations, if you want. Anchor a lot of skulduggery. Rumor has it, Boris Johnson said today was one of the happiest days of his life. As always, thank you very much.

Here in germany, parliament has approved legislation to integrate the one million plus refugees who have settled here, including funds for job creation and language courses. Chancellor Angela Merkel is hailing the law as historic, but opposition groups say the law may end up alienating the very people it is designed to help. Reporter the Reception Center at the temple half airport templehof airport is the largest in germany. 12,000 refugees are living here. , for months living here in cramped conditions, it only makes it worse. Some are here alone, and the parents here are often preoccupied with their own suffering and the process of applying for asylum. The children cannot protect themselves. They cannot always tell who has the best interests at heart, and who might represent a danger. This makes refugee shelters a prime target for pedophiles and sex offenders, or slave traders. Reporter at templehof, a lot of care is taken to protect women and children. The wall in front of the showers is cut off so no one can hide their. , there are separate showers for women and places which often can play with staff to look after them. Still, there is an acute lack of resources here and at other shelters. Anyone involved with Child Protection on a daily basis knows the situation is critical. Reporter the problem lies with the finance ministries and the interior ministrys, at both National Ministries at both the national and local level. The experts are calling for more funding, personnel, and new legislation to protect women and children. Otherwise the consequences, they say, will be devastating.

Until now, victims had to physically resist an attack and prove that. Theresa may takes another step to becoming britains next Prime Minister after a strong lead in a secondround vote for conservative party leader. She will take on Andrea Leadsom in a vote put to the tory rankandfile in september. Bad budgets. Two eeu nations are eu nations are being brought to task for spending too much money . Reporter big budget deficits and loose pursestrings. Spain and portugals budgets are out of control. Thats the verdict of the European Commission. The eus executive committee started Disciplinary Procedures against the two countries. Neither of them have put in place robust enough measures to cut spending. Now the countries are at risk of being fined. The Commission Says both spain and portugals budget deficits were over the eus limit of 3 of gross domestic product. The Eu Commission responsible said the countries made progress, but were behind schedule. Both spain and portugal have veered off track in correction of their excessive deficits and have not met budgetary goals. Reporter but the commission will not decide if fines and other penalties will be applied until after an eu finance ministers meeting next week. Today is not about sanctions. Not at all. Today is about correcting the past. The next step is for the council to discuss, as per the said. So no speculation today, please, from anybody.

Portugal was required to cut its deficit to 2. 5 of gdp in 2015, but instead had a 4. 4 deficit. But both countries could be granted more time and escape sanctions if they are able to prove exceptional economic circumstances led to their pre dicaments.

Shareholders and regulators are expected to approve the deal by the end of the year. Lets talk now to jose, who has more of this from wall street. Why has danone chosen whitewave . Reporter well, it seems that it is a match made in heaven, if you like yogurt and soy milk. Not only does it increase the presence of danone in the u. S.

Reporter moving on to u. S. Jobs. Some positive Employment Data came out today . Reporter yes. Private sector in the u. S. Added around 172,000 jobs, above expectations, and jobless claims have fallen by 16,000 last week. We also learned, layoffs have remained well below the 12 month average, so now all the attention is on fridays jobs report. If the number comes up closer to 200,000 jobs, it could push markets higher, and put a rate hike back on the table.

Reporter it was a day of trading on thursday where Oil Prices Fell over 2 , closing a little over 45 as oil reserves decreased by 2. 2 Million Barrels less than expected, a situation that sent stocks tumbling. The yield on the twoyear u. S. Treasury kept moving toward record lows, 1. 38 . Reporter thanks for that update. It sounds too good to be true. A brandnew smartphone, for just four dollars . Except many have criticized the indian firm behind the device, saying the claim is overblown. The freedom to 51 is 251 is causing a sensation in t worlds fastestgrowing smartphone market. E compansays they wi not make profit from the sales, but expect to generate money from advertising and marketing. The phone is finally ready to be sent out to customers. Joining me to pick this apart now, an editor at gigatech. Thanks for coming in. There has been a lot of skepticism about this phone, so how believable are the manufacturers claims . At the moment, they are quite unbelievable. The phone was announced a few months ago, and they were quite some scandals. A member of the Indian Parliament even called it a scam they were rebranded phones from taiwan. Until i see the phone, i am very skeptical. The specification same seem real, but the price is far too low. Reporter they clearly do want to sell the phone to poor people, at that price point, and they say they want to break even by selling advertising through the phone and also putting apps on the phone, but advertisers dont really want to aim at poor people. So whats going on here with this Business Model . The advertising idea is just one idea. The real idea, the real Business Model, would be to put very cheap apps on the phone, to sell cheap apps to owners of the phone, for Something Like one to three rupees, which is almost nothing, and through the mass they would reach to, 750 Million People using the phone, in their ideal idea, they would make quite some revenue by selling these apps. Reporter journalists have only had access to about five of the phones so far. For four dollars to be possible, to breakeven, they need massive economies of scale. They need to supply a lot, and they need a lot of demand for that as well. So, can they possibly make enough, deliver enough, to be able to make this possible . I think they could do it. Not all at once, not in the first batch, but what they would probably do if they get funding, they could let the phone manufacturer, maybe different companies, from china, to scale, and then over the next years they could probably come to what they promised, to gi every indian a smartphone, but not at once, and not with their own capacities. Reporter to finish on, if this is perhaps less believable of a smartphone, what is a more reputable, cheap smartphone . Google, samsung, and other big players are selling cheap smartphones to emerging markets in india, priced around 40 to 60. We saw some at 35, but at the moment it is not possible really to go below the price of 40. Reporter thank you very much for talking to us. Thats all from me for now. Anchor thank you very much.
