attack drones, more air defence, a new uk flying school for pilots. the europeans are keen to support ukraine s expected counteroffensive, but can they provide president zelensky with the kit he needs? we will get the view from kyiv and london. at home, rishi sunak is marshalling his troops. a downing street reception tonight, to officially celebrate the coronation of king charles iii. but is it also a much needed charm offensive, amid more splits in tory ranks over brexit and immigration? speaking of which, who s going to pick the spring cabbage and the rhubarb? the farmers said today they need more labour and higher prices to solve the food crisis in britain. and we will take a look tonight at those election results from turkey no victor in round one but early advantage president erdogan. but we start tonight with president zelensky s visit to the uk. ukraine he says, can defeat russia by the end of this year, with the right kind of western help. the latest tranche of sup
on its foot again. that might also be. it will take time to see how that will land but it is clear that the earthquake didn t necessarily come up fundamentally at the same time as not forget, this is the lowest presidential vote erdogan has got. 52% last time. his own party lost some 78% of votes even coalition parliamentary majority. things are not all okay. there is definitely a bleeding from the party and erdogan and other islamist parties or nationalist party. but so far on a presidential question he seems to be holding his appeal across voters. across voters. good to talk to. thank you across voters. good to talk to. thank you very across voters. good to talk to. thank you very much - across voters. good to talk to. thank you very much indeed. l across voters. good to talk to. i thank you very much indeed. we will talk about turkey and the second half of our programme with our panel, chris morris and joe rubin in the second hour. around the world and across the uk. this is bb
big-time. i mean, six atmospheres worth of pressure as in all the steam that s caused moves up the generator and out through the seem valves. all the steam here goes out here. huge amounts of pressure like the amount of pressure behind a dam at a water hydro plant. that s going to just turn this. from here on in, this is just normal energy production. you can do this with coal, gas. you re turning turbines, creating electricity. the problem is the water coming in from the ocean to cool this steam back to water to condense it, that water stopped because the power stopped. the backup generator stopped. the batteries stopped eventually. and they got flooded. the backup power got flooded by the tsunami. the earthquake didn t hurt this plant. it did shut it down, normally shut it down. the tsunami flooded the backup and the backup and the backup and a number of things cascaded from there and that s where we are now. the rods we do have plants that do this, plants more modern
water comes from somewhere else. the ocean in japan. comes through as a condenser, like the air conditioner in your car. changes the steam back to water and goes through and does the same thing again. we lost this water because the pump died, not because of the earthquake, because of the tsunami flooded back-up generators. the pumps were running on their own power. this whole thing shut down because of the earthquake. earthquake didn t hurt it. what hurt it is the pump shut down because the tsunami swamped the 13 generators, they were the backup to keep this running. when this stopped, they had to put some water in it, something, because all the water steamed out. they haddumping sea water into it. it wrecked it. it wrecked it. the new power generators will never do this.
