derek black, welcome to hardtalk. your book is called the klansman s son, and your family as a whole were close to david duke, who s one of the most notorious ku klux klan leaders. the anti defamation league has called him perhaps america s best known racist and anti semite. describe for us first the home and the environment in which you grew up, in florida in the 1990s. right, thanks for having me. i grew up in a place that i think often doesn t look like what most people expect. it was relatively urban. it was in south florida, it was very racially diverse. i lived in a neighbourhood with people from lots of different countries, and although i grew up in an anti semitic movement, there was a very largejewish population in the area. and that was ok for my family, because their world view is what separated them from the rest of the country. it was that they saw themselves as a part of a movement that they had been building since decades before i was born, and they wanted to c
there have been discussions about how to share the middle east, essentially. it s pretty tenuous. the saudis have been fighting a five, six, seven year war in yemen against the iranian backed houthis, without success. british politics, which has always seemed so stable, even predictable compared with the politics of the rest of europe, appeared to have settled down again after eight or nine years of chaos. since the brexit referendum in 2016, eight years ago, there ve been no fewer than five prime ministers, all from the conservative party. now the opinion polls suggest the labour party will win power onjuly the 4th, either outright or through a coalition. will british politics settle down to their usual stability after that? and what will britain s position in the world be? the bbc s diplomatic correspondent james landale. the great irony is the last election was essentially a referendum on whether or not we should get brexit done. that was the great conservative slogan, and
38 political candidates have been killed during the campaign, making mexico s election one of the most violent in recent history. will grant, what s the latest you can tell us. you can probably hear behind me, the main square in mexico city, the festivities for claudia sheinbaum s supporters are picking up, they are pretty confident she has got this. there are not enough votes counted yet to say that with any degree of certainty, but certainly, i don t think they need convincing. she has always been quite far ahead in the polls before voting day, and they are convinced that has been transferred to the vote itself. that said, her nearest challenger galvez has already claimed victory too, so we are in one of those strange post electoral moments. it will be ironed out in the coming hours, but we aren t maybe a few hours away from mexico declaring who its next woman president, almost certainly, it is. $5 its next woman president, almost certainly, it is. as you sa , almost certai
during the campaign, making mexico s election one of the most violent in recent history. we can look at some live pictures in mexico city, the main central plaza in the mexican capital. there you can see supporters gathering, supporters of claudia sheinbaum, as we wait for her to take the stage. will grant, what s the latest you can tell us. , ., ., what s the latest you can tell us. , ., ., us. it s one of those situations us. it s one of those situations where - us. it s one of those situations where it | us. it s one of those | situations where it is us. it s one of those i situations where it is a us. it s one of those - situations where it is a little too early to say anything definitive. getting indications from both parties of victory, kind of normal at this time of the evening after a vote. i suspect we will know something more definitive in the coming hours, probably sooner rather than later. in the main plaza in mexico city, claudia sheinbaum s supporters are c
won all of them, so that s what i wanted to mean when i said that they have the key against him. i know that when distefano is playing great, but i know technically what i have to do in the match. jannik sinner survived a scare to book his place in the quarterfinals. he lost the opening set against home favourite corentin moutet but the second seed fought back to win in four, and will play grigor dimitrov next who s reached the last eight for the first time in his career at the age of 33. well, it has been a busy day of action with no rain finally, and the tournament climax getting nearer. earlier, we spoke to our tennis correspondent who says it ll take something special to stop alcaraz and swiatek in both draws. i think he mightjust be my man to beat. the onyx centre would be the other one. and, despite the late finish we saw last night, we saw signs novak djokovic s game is improving. so those are the three obvious names. alcaraz had a problem with his right forearm co
