Or this is been a momentous a week for a multitude so many developments lets take you now to our very own barbara who is in valencia the maltese capital. Where to begin ok lets 1st start with Prime MinisterJoseph Muscat who reportedly plans to resign imminently a look at what more can you tell us about that. We are waiting actually for a televised address to the country within the next hour or so of joseph musket and it is an extraordinary day here because for a couple of days you had the feeling here in malta that things were coming to a head that this was not sustainable politically really the anger with people within the population was really growing and we saw some some relief real fury among people here protesters particularly with the family of the murdered journalist they put out a press statement saying he really must get he really needs to step down hes deeply implicated in the murder off the top because he said that he cannot possibly stay in office and not possibly be the one who promises justice when his own affairs need to be a probe and so finally it seems theyre getting what they want we have to wait a bit for the modelled of these its not quite clear what the musket will step down immediately and the vice Prime Minister will take over there supposed to be elections later and in new Prime Minister in general all whether he will sort of stay in office for a while as as a sort of caretaker that still has to be decided it seems bought an extraordinary spectacle because last night we saw after a 7 hour Cabinet Meeting almost smugly defiant Joseph Muskett faced the cameras and saying i have nothing at all to reproach myself with i have nothing to do with this and im going to see the investigations through and overnight they had turned his mind and the president finally this morning must have told him you can carry on you really do have to step down now his position was definitely and sustainable but what begs the question now of course is what does this all mean all these developments an extraordinary day in an extraordinary week what does it mean for the investigation into the murder of daphne according to. Things are going to get really interesting now in the courthouse here behind us at the moment Jorgen Fenech is being heard he is the main suspect one of the wealthiest businessmen off malta the main suspect of having or did the hit against. And he already had asked yesterday for a president ial pardon in order to be free to tell all about government involvement into this sleaze and corruption surrounding the murder of the investigative journalist this is not only involved quantum of papers and a dubai connection this goes much deeper and it seems to really end compasses all areas of maltese economy and society and not the corruption probe against ministers of this government here has been open to date so finally it seems that the whole edifice seems to be tumbling down and critics here we saw a really scary thing. Editorial off the leading newspaper the malta times today that said this country has turned into the mafia state and things really have to be brought out into the into the light now and things really have to change fundamentally borrow days of reporting from malta thank you. Climate activists around the world are taking to the streets in the force at fridays for a future Global Climate strike well theyre demanding that governments step up their efforts to cut Carbon Emissions and theyre sending a message as well to the Un Climate Change Conference which kicks off in madrid next week organizers say more than 3000 strikes are planned around the world and here you can now get a sense of the scale of the rallies calling on politicians to do more to slash c o 2 emissions australians were among the 1st to take to the streets in sydney hundreds of young people skipped school to hold a rally outside the city hall.

By the right. But. I was. Really a foreign. Resident here are living on the front lines of this crisis and the effects are everywhere if you saw the brotherhood of the shape of the felt odd some people couldnt come out because of the flood and if it were that long the outcome im not its really really really telling that people can come out actually produce things that it will be good for them in islamabad. In the philippines sisters were doing it for the planet leading a march of hundreds to demand action. It was a more subdued picture in seoul where the friday protests have struggled to capture the imagination. But in india the roots of this movement as an impassioned. Called to galvanize the youth into something of a revolution are all too evident but were going to look. At the feeling really really important for children kickboxing when such is right in the future because its all about the system seems to me its about finally getting your voice is heard its about removing this obsession on Environmental Issues like me going to go on the overt to nobody see make us. Was make chart out in south africa to put some living their bodies on the ground to make a statement about the impact that rampant consumerism of black friday sales is having on a global because system. And here in berlin demonstrators are also on the march in our correspondent hans bruce joins the rally and he spoke to representatives from the fridays suture movement take a listen. So we hear of fridays for future demonstration also at the Brandenburg Gate several thousands of demonstrators here at the moment and with me its a crying pasha spokesperson for fridays for a future in germany thank you very much for talking to us having what is the message from here to the madrid conference that just starting next week well our method is to do what lead us to act on Climate Change to act what science is demanding and to look on the facts on the scientific facts and the consensus we signs to Paris Agreement to call the 15th so we have to act now. Here in germany the government has also paused a package of climate laws or new climate laws that on all stuck in the parliamentary process what is your message to the German Government to the German Government failed us a fait also with our socalled climate package because science is saying that its not enough it will not change anything here in germany or in the new global and a global issue of justice. Today happens to be also black friday that shopping day what do you feel of all about well wreck friday as a huge day for a lot of people in the world but the future we are demanding to politicians to not to individual as individuals have not a lot of influence on the climate so we have to stop shaming people fall down behavior because some people dont have a lot of money so break friday is kind of a huge social injustice day so its a black friday for the climate not for us. Thank you very much for talking to us. While many of those striking for the climate have done today green friday well as they were time to take a stand against blacks rightly their traditional day of bargain shopping after the american thanksgiving holiday has spread around the world but in c. S. Its resulted in protests these images that you see right here. Far from outside the Amazon Warehouse in the Southern City of new york where demonstrators have clashed with Police Climate activists want to send a message that the overconsumption synonymous with black friday is harmful to the environment. Its black friday in france and everything is on sale well almost everything theres a growing resistance to this foreign invader marching through french shopping precincts and ive been to some just creates more garbage a minute some years i think we consume much more than we need to and its not just shoppers who are questioning Consumption Patterns also in the. Consuming has a real impact on our jobs on ecology on our health this must be taken into account black friday doesnt fit that picture anymore. 3 years ago the green friday movement for responsible consumption was launched to make people aware of environmental problems related to mass consumerism. Whether google if i when i see black friday its unbearable when i see these low prices and i think about the people who are making Real Products and very badly paid if i think about the environment thats being attacked they kill.

There at soccer news now for your English Premier League club arsenal have sacked head coach knight emery after a run of 7 games without a win while former player Freddie Lynchburg is set to take over temporarily and we joined the club back in may 2800 succeeding Arsene Wenger he previously led at paris to sachem out to the French League title and won 3 Europa League with spanish club. Now where does the human body end and the digital self taken well thats the question posed by artist Luisa Clemente whose work is making its way onto the must have list of International Museums and galleries a comment currently has a solo exhibit in the german city of austin where her Photos Videos and sculptures seem to come from a future that has already begun. Aesthetic beguiling and confusing Luisa Clements work asks the question of where we are right now still in reality or in a Virtual World and what defines people in the digital age. The artist gets her inspiration in city centers where she takes nap shots with her cell phone camera mostly a faceless shop window dummies she photographs shapes and abstractions a reference to the digitalisation thats changing daily life. That phrase for a month because of course there are changes in terminology conventions of speech forms of speech interpersonal relations always have had something to do with localization but with digitalisation space is no longer so directly defined if and yet. Where does the human body end and the digital self begin for series heads luisa claimants assemble cell phone photos into a series of portraits of manichean. In this wordless way she demonstrates the loss of personality in modern society. Cutting yourself off from real surroundings can be done in analog too like with mirrored sunglasses so be human disappears and its unclear whether theres anything behind the reflection covering some reflection symbolizing an imaginary world. I mean make had a facial expression was have a lot to do with communication and we generally get a lot of information through eye contact if someone looks away if that safety board because we now communicate so much. 3 whatsapp through Instagram Facebook telegram with whatever their are called i live we no longer have the real essence of a conversation and of course its much easier now to dip in and out of a conversation and ultimately a commitment and thats what i find so interesting about the change taking place in society. Of what im done with everything i know to plant something. This cyborgs mannequins and avatars and luisa claimants photographs and videos are loud and aggressive her work makes the man machine system seem beautifully unsettling cancer doctor. Who is fearful of other hope i can see that its digital existence these avatars that were currently building is something highly abstract art. I can simply depict myself in the Digital World by leaving out all my flaws and quirks. So theres a kind of abstraction thats taking place from the form from abstract so when we start hello i am here to meet some other bots when you with this roundtable i am bot 01 luisa claimants ideas are clearly hitting a nerve several International Museums have started acquiring her work.
