So all that still ahead but 1st police in hong kong have used tear gas and pepper spray on demonstrators rallying across the city thousands of people marched to protest Police Brutality the territory has seen antigovernment demonstrations for almost 6 months now sarah clarke reports from hong kong. They can be drawn as to say 380000 joined sundays antigovernment rally gathering in the harbor front they marched through kalou repeating the calls for greater democracy in hong kong i think its very important for us to like. Like come out and hold together and make sure were on the same page i still support what were doing we always want to be used to have these kinds of situations and to the government. Press our good man why did not one thats. The prodemocracy groups won a landslide victory in last weekends district elections securing a majority in 18 of the citys councils. That bolster the momentum for protest groups but they want the government to meet their 5 demands including the right to choose their leader and an independent carry into Police Brutality that means hong kong people have not given up you can get off the election doesnt mean and it is just an added new chapter in the fact that this government has not responded to the 5 demands encouraged to stay and again this rally was approved by play the odds are you know tracked in larger numbers than the other 2 rallies held in hong kong on sunday but there is still a heavy Police Presence in tahrir long this route in color within hours of this march beginning police fired tear gas on protesters they key some of her bricks and illegally blocking major highways some retreated others continued towards the Polytechnic University campus which became a protest battleground last week with students holed up inside for 12 days police sealed off the area and organizers announced an early finish to the rally earlier around 1000 people marched to the u.

The u. K. Election campaign is focused on how to deal with people convicted of terrorist offenses after fridays attack in Central London the Prime Minister bars johnson is promising tougher sentences but the main opposition is proposing a case by Case Treatment of. Roy challenge joins us now from london so roy this is been a big issue in the campaign the last couple of days since the attack and their leaders from all sides have been talking what they were they saying. Yeah its not a particularly good look is it for governments in the last 2 weeks of an Election Campaign to look like it has dropped the ball on Public Security and that a man who should have been perhaps still in prison he had only served 8 years of a 16 year sentence he was released in december 2018 automatic Early Release went on to kill 2 people on the streets of london the way the conservative government of course johnson is trying to deal with the moment is to pass the buck to say well it doesnt matter whether weve been in power in name government for 10 years this is not all folks actually this is the fault of previoUs Governments the opposition governments of the Labor Party Tony Blair and gordon brown now its a bit of a stretch to go that far certainly because the circumstances by which has been a car and was out on automatic Early Release are a confluence of various Different Things that particularities of his case legislation from labor but also of the conservative party in recent times as well you can hear how Boris Johnson was putting this to andrew marr on the b. B. C. Andrew marr show earlier on today. I think this whole system of automatic Early Release which was brought in by labor it was under and it was under that system half the tenure of that ive only been in office for other projects so i. Was one of the terms as well as wearing body has been perfect one of the reasons were having this election is because we have a queens speech that was blocked by parliament amongst other things not least breaks it and we need to get it done so that we can move forward i think its ridiculous i think its repulsive that individuals as dangerous as this man should be allowed out after serving only 8 years and thats he why we are going to change the law. So if it is a stretch to say that theres been a car being out early was labors fault is flat out wrong to say that parliament blocked stories johnsons queens speech there said they didnt know it was one of the few votes that Boris Johnsons actually won in parliament in his time as Prime Minister. And the leader of the opposition has been speaking about this as well about the whole issue of the release from prisons but he has a slightly more nuanced view doesnt it. Yes. Jerico been basically saying that the whole situation that the u. K. Has with its threats from terrorism of the moment is in part due to Foreign Policy decisions which he has long disagreed with such as going to war in iraq although it was the labor government of tony blair that took britain to war in iraq Jeremy Corbyn at the time as a backbencher was fiercely opposed to it and has been for a very long time so he says that that has fuel a lot of the antagonism that various people around the world and in the u. K. Have against the United Kingdom its created at least in part this problem that the u. K. Has. On sky program earlier on today where there is a thought that terrorists. As the into a put it should be released early from prison we can hear what he said to that. I think it depends on the circumstances it depends on the sentence but crucially depends on what theyve done in the north and the family dont know not necessarily know i think there has to be an examination of how Prison Services work and crucially what happens someone released from prison because. I need to know whether or not the parole board were involved in his release apparently they were not they made that statement quite quickly. So some of the trying to blame the labor party for whats happened in london last few days will the voices by this difficult to say will have to wait until the country goes to the polls on december the 12th to find that out but it does seem that although the Tories Conservative Party still have a lead in in the polls that lead is narrowing and labor are creeping up as this campaign gets into its final stages. Roy thanks very much roy challenge in london for us time now for the weather has kevin thats right and we are talking about a typhoon right now making its way towards the parts of the philippines a very big system measure can see here on our satellite image this was from about 24 hours ago till now it has gone through a few different phases but we are starting to see the feeder band starting to affect parts of eastern philippines winds right now gusting up to about 150 Kilometers Per Hour moving to the west at about 28. 00 now the storm is still increasing in intensity and most likely were talking about 16300000 people here across central parts of the philippines are going to be affected by winds that are stronger than a category one hurricane so a lot of people are going to be affected in this particular area as well as the very heavy rain across the region this is what we are going to be seeing tomorrow winds are going to be kicking up and making the storm stronger acquittal to a category 2 tomorrow now we are looking at landfall tomorrow evening local time in the philippines monday night and into 2.

Russia is one of the few European Countries where there is no law against Domestic Violence but some politician or politicians hoping to change that a bill to declare it a crime has been resubmitted in parliament but m. P. s pushing for the new law are facing threats from conservative and religious groups step vassal reports from moscow. Had reported her husbands abuse weeks before her death police had sent her away saying so gay a policeman himself could only be fined and she would jeopardize his career when she asked for a divorce her husband stabbed her 57 times it had been accepted our child went to wake up his mom in the morning and found her with her throat sliced open covered in blood and her eyes half closed thats how he described it himself the fact that sergei has a child was considered a soft and circumstance isnt an absurd situation he killed this childs mother he left this child alone with the body of his mom. There are no official statistics but hundreds or even powers of russian women are murdered by their husbands every year those who managed to escape can go to a Crisis Center but they are only 15 government sponsored centers nationwide. Literature those efforts to criminalize Domestic Violence have failed so far hundreds showed up at this protest against the new Domestic Violence bill saying the law is counter to russian family values i think family is something which works fine in traditional garb cultures some think we should not be. The last number of laws. For family regulation the birth of our fertility voters like the show no resistance thats facing women who are fighting against the much the violence of but the opposition goes far beyond these kinds of protest russian women say these groups are well funded and have powerful connections.

Again a sickly bush if he is the Deputy Director for Eastern Europe and central asia at Amnesty International he joins us via skype now from london thanks very much for being with us so why is there so much resistance to this legislation in russia because it would seem. To many people who would be surprised as well the russia doesnt have already have a law against this it would seem to be a no brainer. You would indeed seem so but there are multiple reasons one of which is the following the russian state state has in recent years used repeatedly socalled traditional values to prop itself is facing many problems is facing internal opposition there are external problems its trying to project itself as something that stands for traditional values and a strong traditionally understood family is central to that to pass a law like this with equal recognizing that not everything is right in the family that theres violence that there are deaths and that particular affect women these there are many groups that resist recognizing these things like the little taking steps and i think thats the probably the main thing behind it so whats the out then at the moment for this legislation to pass one of the chances that it gets a little difficult difficult to say its been 20 years at least since various groups have been advocating on the mystic violence we missed International Day that i was working in moscow 15 years ago we had a big campaign proposing at the vacating this law and then well it didnt work out then it may fail now but now at least the there is a strong backing for the law but of course theres also strong resistance so i think its a fine balance lets see who wins the battle next ballot next but that will be about improving the lot because the drove the draft that we have seen. Is not up to scratch in so many words. Tell us a little bit more about that about the resistance to this and what it what it takes its root from. In russia and this particular given the fact that you know we would seem to this is the proposal to toughen toughen the laws against in my Domestic Violence would appeal to to many russian women i mean theyre there theyre half the population. You would think that the law would have accused half of the populations back in but it doesnt mean it women share conservative values at located by the state of the case held by the Russian Orthodox church by the religious groups and its their understanding of the law is a something thats going against russias traditional values proposing and inserting into russia something that is poor into its culture and on that basis many resisted indeed there are strong groups that oppose that there is a resistance in the parliament there is the whole of Russian Orthodox church it seems there are various. Movements that made it their complaint to oppose it again that that is a strong popular united but very numerous lobby against it so well see who wins but its not a straightforward battle as you would think with so many women. Would be the victims and therefore the bin if you should use of that law could to talk you dan a 2nd of a sheer thank you. Thank you our several countries across latin america are expected to hold a similar taney as a law on sunday its a type of protest that involves banging on pots and pans crowds are coming together for a variety of reasons they all share something in common the sea newman has more from one of those demonstrations in the chilean capital santiago was this is the unmistakable sound of the protests. A very special kind of protest. And a very noisy one at that. The crash of the last will require support. For a pan and something to strike if we. All keep doing this until the politicians understand that inequality in chile is unacceptable i know him again and it doesnt matter how long it takes i still have plenty of pans left. Banging pots and pans became famous in chile in 1981 when opponents of the left wing government of president salvador the un day came out to protest Food Shortages and rationing it was associated with the center and right wing opposition sociologist manuel until you got it done remembers it well. Mark were going to. The concert a lot so were part of the best organized protests that would lead to the military overthrow if i ended the idea was to attribute it to Civil Society and women in the name of protecting their families and children the irony is that 12 years later the 1st major protest against the dictatorship brought the pots and pans back in the middle of an acute economic crisis characterized by hunger especially on the poor and. Many assume that chile was the birthplace of the castle last or the practice of. The 1st. Appeared in algeria the socalled. The love independence. They remembered only there they read that in america back. In europe. One of the virtues of this form of protest is that you can do it day or night on the street or from your home where presumably theres less risk of being arrested especially when theres a curfew. Depending on how widespread and noisy the cassock are last will one can gauge the degree of support for a given protest. In venezuela for example the pots and pans come out every time theres a blackout or just a protest against president Nicolas Maduro to. Put the practice transcends all ideologies its simply the best way many people feel they have to make themselves heard to see in human aljazeera something i will. Still ahead on our visit out in sport to ski star who won his 1st race back up to the real threatening injury. Al jazeera is there when a story breaks but its close a bit to see what happens next which.
