hearts german unity day commemorating the out of the countries for reunification in one thousand nine hundred ninety but the east west political divisions reback a wealthy employment under specially migration i'm phil gale in berlin this is the day. no one would fall on november the ninth the front group. would be ahead in the summer and who could have guessed it would be possible to achieve german unity in less than a year right. up in swansea but we now know twenty eight years later that german unity is a true sas. point differential german unity is incomplete twenty years later it's still challenging us. about and we care
a consensus on what actually unites us is something we must continuously strive for . meanwhile britain's prime minister has been appealing for party unity her colleagues took time out from ripping her plans to shred to watch theresa may not only dance on to the stage but also joked about her disastrous performance last year. it will have to excuse me if i do cough during the speech i have been up all night superglue in the backdrop i. will begin here in germany which has been marking its day of unity politicians at ceremonies in berlin praised the progress made in the twenty eight years since the country's east and west or formally reunited but they also raise concerns about the divisions that
remain and they called on germans to defend the principles of democracy against the rise of right wing popular. music by beethoven often seen as the quintessentially german composer gilbert your to his opera fidelio by turns quiet and thoughtful then loud and passionate. almost like a wake up call for germany twenty eight years since reunification. now president of the parliament was contrived or was one of the politicians who negotiated the treaty that opened the door to german reunification that will be his political legacy but he reminded germans that unification is always an ongoing process. idiom written october annoyance in the unity of our state was achieved on that october the one nine hundred ninety unanimity over what it is that unites us is something we must constantly strive to rio church. sheidlower went on to
describe reunification as the second chance for germany and that is why he said germany must be vigilant in the face of any attempt to avoid facing up to the responsibilities of history regards. the people used in germany as elsewhere we see populists with the arrogance to call on the people to rise up against their political opponents against imagined or actual minorities against those elected by the people but no one no one has the right to claim that he or she is the sole representative of the people's will. for to us what it. should be as words will have resonated with many germans at this time despite the party atmosphere at the brandenburg gate germany is facing some difficult and controversial issues. smack me as the what's happening right now worries me but generally i hope that the majority of people are still intelligent enough to oppose these developments. and exit. i'm very worried about
right wing tendencies and xenophobia which are still on the rise in our country and . not far from the celebrations at the brandenburg gate more than a thousand right wing extremists gathered outside berlin central railway station to protest against chancellor angela merkel against what they called the biased press and against fake news. although they couldn't hear him outside the station tribalists words were addressed to such people as well as the rest of the nation. for she denied so are accepting differences recognizing the diversity of legitimate opinions and interests and realizing that your own ideas are not the measure of all things that is the way of thinking which will lead to more unity in our society to me i'm going mind some cards to soften chancellor merkel echoed the idea that german unification is still ongoing. now twenty eight years on we know that what we call german unity is a process a long journey which over and over again. means we must listen to each other's
points of view work together and not give up german unity is not finished twenty eight years on it is still a continuous challenge. holds and so this year's day of german unity ended as it began peaceful pensive with contradictions and conciliation. over some russians in the german capital continued into the night with a star studded concert at berlin's brandenburg gate they wus shallots else until spoke to us from the high volume event. case you remember what happened when. i went there unified the one of the big topics the conversation a lingering division. in chad not me that it was a time in the world if you limit touched by a number and it is a play that read the job and not
a regular bride to. be here in germany the right the far right. for example of the job market and the bad times there are a lot of good and. they do feel like the human side ninety and there are a lot of questions about how they live how they. are the japanese. on the far right has been marching. why only to be the only body. behind by the people if they were under the far right racists in the hall this is. a short time ago that was. right and. he was. reading japanese and in. the united country. a very noisy germany day
celebrations in that time brother care. for veterans german not journalists found us on a welcome to d w so what we're talking about twenty eight years since that the two german seems to west were united a recent survey says that only one in three east germans believe the country has grown more united since the one nine hundred ninety what is the view from the outside so negative. well if you would travel as a foreigner or from west germany to his germany you would not see any difference anymore after twenty eight years germany has been rebuilt and yet there is a dark cloud hanging over this day of celebration and rightly so because a lot of people in these germany have a huge problem with a lot of things forty six percent say in a poll that they have problems with the concept of democracy and that is very virus
them and the problem with the concept of democracy why. well they feel left behind it's the same phenomenon that you see in the united states where a lot of people millions of people in the same big democracy also feel that way and there's a growing gap between the so-called elite ruling. the way they see it and the people in east germany you find that also in west germany but very much less so and this seems to explain partly what is happening there and of course on top of this you have to refugee crisis and people traditionally and use germany and not used to have. among themselves the huge battle cry in the peaceful revolution in one thousand eight hundred nine was we are the people and no the right people say we are the people and meaning the us the foreigners the
immigrants the refugees the not so let's talk about this idea of being left behind are there real differences in life and life opportunities between east and west germany well the vast majority of the people in his germany live so much better so much better than thirty years ago in communist germany but the fact the facts support the idea that the kind of left behind in wages in political life and a lot of huge german industry do not have quarters in germany that but that doesn't mean nothing is getting produced in germany m.w. for example is producing in life that porsche is producing in life. we have a little silicon valley which is doing very well so it's a very mixed bag there but this seems to be why then we say the east of this this hotbed of right wing activism with and the likes of the f.d.a.
having a lot of support there and is what is this anti muslim piggy to movement. yes absolutely and the reason why a lot of people support the so-called alternative for germany is the this is a protest movement for them and the key word here is recognition a lot of people in these germany do not feel that they get the recognition for their life or what they have achieved over the past thirty years or so and they want to be heard i think that is the key for all the problems that we have now in east germany talking to thank you so much for joining us on thank you for having me . now you might remember a very british prime minister dance for diplomacy during her recent visits to kenya and south africa videos like this went viral as theresa may it was ridiculed by the
u.k. press for they called it. the robotic dance moves today mrs may look like she was having the last laugh as she stepped out in front of a conservative party colleagues in the british city of birmingham. there is a very made her grand entrance to the sound of others dancing craze present people go to mock you for your dance for if you mess well own them. well the prime ministers that keynote speech are quickly moved on to the pressing issue of breck's it breck's it she urged her party to a united what she called the toughest phase of negotiations with the european union pressure on the conservatives is growing ahead of an e.u. summit in two weeks which has made dismissed growing calls in britain to hold a new referendum. a second referendum would be
a politician's fate politicians telling people they got it wrong the first time and should try again. those all go off in different directions in pursuit of our own visions of the perfect bricks it we risk ending up with no after all no one wants a good deal more than me but that has never meant getting the deal at any cost britain isn't afraid to leave with no deal if we have to. ask a more on this from dr simon assured who's a reader in politics at the university of surrey in the united kingdom especially if there is include your skepticism and your relations with the u.k. he joins us from gilford welcome to dublin so let's start with no deal scenario there seems to be a lot more talk about the possibility or indeed the likelihood of a no deal bracks it is this sense of all expectation management or on the goes
ations with the e.u. really going that badly. well i think it's a bit of both on the one hand we have to remember that the default outcome of this process is exactly a no deal that the u.k. will leave on the twenty ninth of march next year without a deal unless one is agreed so it can't simply be wished away as some would like but on the other hand i think there is that very strong determination as to reason i was just saying in that clip that she wants to get at the oh the e.u. certainly want to have it but the difficulties over issues such as on the border issue the role of the court of justice really have proved very difficult so i think there is a degree of trying to remind everybody of what no deal means the dangers the uncertainties that come with that to try to encourage people to accept whatever she comes back with from the negotiations ok so international negotiations are by they
have very nature a tricky she didn't actually constructed this this check is deal and everybody signed off on it in her cabinet but her own party has been shredding it ever since it was published why won't they get behind it. well i think the the fear here is twofold on the one hand a lot of members of her party worry that she is starting to soften in the kind of breaks it that she works towards but she's actually trying to get a much closer relationship between the u.k. and the e.u. after new kate leaves and that this is the thin end of a way at the same time there's also a lot of criticism not least from the european and is that this is just simply an unworkable models that they the compromises that she's proposing to try and avoid problems with islands in northern ireland simply don't work with the framework of the e.u. and the rules that they have so there's criticism coming from from all rounds and
you're right to say that her cabinet signed off on it but then almost immediately she lost two of my senior senior ministers boris johnson the forest secretary and david davis the minister in charge of the negotiations so she's been fighting a very difficult battle over the summer and that's why this chapati conference with some important let's talk about the party conference subseries i'm a danced on to the conference stage today and gave a confident performance in stark contrast to her disastrous speech a year ago and the public sector working together we have bounced back we've created record numbers of jobs. and prepare for a run on the ground my passion and strength that was shared around the dinner. well that was the prime minister last year this year she danced and she joked so regardless of her more confident performance is
that job security now than it was a year ago. yes yes i think she has done a good job of getting through this very difficult periods ironically all the criticism that she got in the run up to this conference i think was a. hope to her that she was able to better weigh the criticisms the. discussion about having a second referendum something which i think all of her party feel that is not an acceptable development so she's been able to search manage that quite well certainly having a much better conference speech i think really helps her and as you were saying you know the the reception that she got was much more positive than last year is now the person i most often quoted as said jealously eyeing the prime minister's job as the former foreign secretary bara said johnson here is on tuesday telling the prime minister what he thought of her checkers plan this is the my truck checkers.
he's dangerous and unstable politically and economically my fellow conservatives this is not democracy that is not what we voted for. him and i should what is boris johnson really the candidate most likely to be placed theresa may as conservative leader or if not prime minister. maybe in boris johnson's mind he's the most likely cancer but i think one of the things that he really struggles with and has struggled with in the past couple of days is the simple fact that he was the foreign secretary for two years with sarees america and so he signed off on that backstop arrangements with island that he worked through a lot of the preliminary work leading up to checkers. he was you know he was important in the bringing together of the cabinet so to then say that this is
somehow deeply unconstitutional some kind of abomination sounds quite difficult to square with him working towards laughs and i think really is one of these figures to consider the would like to be prime minister in line to be leader of the conservative party but you know never quite finds the rights of opportunity and i think he's very popular with the party members but unfortunately for him the groupie really has to convince our other m.p.'s and they are much less sympathetic towards supporting him so as it stands whilst he made a very bold statements were of intention it remains intention rather than action of the stage could talk to you thank you for that dr simon usher was from the university of south.
u.s. president donald trump is facing criticism from fellow republicans for blocking one of the women who say they were sexually assaulted by supreme court nominee brett kavanaugh the criticism comes as lawmakers are way to results of an f.b.i. investigation into georgia governor over allegations of sexual misconduct president trump made the comments at a campaign rally in mississippi. the crowds and the trump rally seems to have made up their minds about the president's supreme court nominee trump on his part use the occasion to mock the apparent holes in the testimony of christine blassie forward she appeared before a senate judiciary committee hearing last week to give her account of an alleged attack by kevin and i had one beer. right i had one beer. well you think was it not it was wonder how good how did you get home i don't

center. he shows us a whole list of things he desperately needs for himself and his family twenty four people that signed in stamp but he still ends up with nothing. in it and so at the end i registered and started hearing yesterday but i was told to come back today. when i was here early in the morning they told me i'd come to the wrong place. they should i should have gone to a different distribution center. to get a lot under the. i distribute in centers like this one all around the city people are lining up to get supplies but because according nation of aid distribution is still an issue many end up empty handed. like noureddine he takes me home to meet his family they've all been living under a tarp since the earthquake especially the children are traumatized. by it but they don't go back there because that even when there's no earthquake off
