Radio 5 Live on digital b.b.c. Sound small speak of a modern. Look at the weather forecasts and then showers over western Scotland and Wales over my otherwise vastly k. Has been quite dry still windy though a blustery day I had with sunny spot as the best of the sunshine in the east of Scotland and England there will be some rain in Scotland and Wales and also spread across the east throughout the day highs of 5 degrees in Glasgow and 9 in London. I'm former Welsh international rugby player goddess Thomas this week for Sport Good morning on Am and f.m. Are in the u.k. On digital and online I'm Roger shock were up all night. We all think we know what a tense and yet genocides of a difficult trying to prove it wasn't until my 943 the Polish to name Rafia Lemkin who was a lawyer calling the work and started to try to devise a legal definition to him it was passed as he lost every member of his family except his brother to a Nazi called grown thanks to Dr lambkins efforts the un established a convention on genocide in 1948 defining it a certain acts committed with the intent to destroy in whole or in part a national ethnic racial or religious group has been tested regularly ever since most likely this week in The Hague. Starting yesterday Myanmar's leader all sounds Suchi the civilian leader all sounds Suci has been appearing at the un International Court of Justice to defend her country against accusations that the Burmese military committed genocide against nearly 3 quarters of a 1000000 Russians or people who were forced to flee into exile in Bangladesh the case here is against the country of Myanmar rather than anybody in particular and stands accused of committing atrocities against the Muslim right and minority while Susan Hutchinson is ph d. Scholar in the coral bells school for Asia Pacific Affairs at the Australian National University. Hello Susan Oh Larry it's lovely having a good good morning good Good to have you with us to we saw on it was seen pictures of on Sun City taking notes and being very very attentive in sa show code of justice does she actually have to be there a tall well she made the decision to leave the delegation to leave me and my delegation to the International Court of Justice I mean so as as the leader of the delegation Yes I'm she me and my will begin their oral proceedings today and it will be it will be interesting to see what what I think statement looks like is it possible that she could just flatly deny everything. Yes it is that is. What the government of Myanmar has done with regard to the revenue genocide they deny the fact that every union as a group of people even exist they did not I that they are. A group of of people that exist within within within me imo they deny that there has been any gross sexual violence on they deny that there have been any genocidal acts and they do not have been any lack under international . Hearings that are about that sort of procedural hearing about what are called provisional measures to try and ensure that there are noise that there are not ongoing genocidal acts while these international while this international case proceed and it's entirely possible that I will say that there is there is no there is nothing there is nothing to see here move along please so yes it's entirely possible that what we may see is not you know an international and an international bigger renowned allow a woman. The world had seen as a figure of didn't democracy a Nobel laureate. Defending with the most of us considered to be a genocide and it would look to most of us as. A civilian figure and as you say the figure of international written. As being put up there is some sort of Us trauma to the side and the bobbies army which isn't even there yes well that this is an interesting position that she is in and I'm. With you know a in times of the way that the Benny's government exists now is you know. When they Alexion what held in Myanmar. Well you know there was some some hard that would have a thing a transition to civilian government and they created this unique position. But the reality was that it was a very much a position of compromise and and she now is in the ultimate position of compromise the where as a civilian Lida she is in a position where she. She is obliged to defend her government. But the rest of us I'm looking at what the government has done as illegal inconceivable and immoral and yet she is but she has chosen whether it has been due to internal pressure on all. She's in a position now where she's defending what the government is doing. But there's also a bunch of bit of internal politics and that Ch'ien around the range as a group and the way that back and did within me and model with her gods that kind of minority status then the discrimination that I broadly you know I have very I have. Significant discrimination and have done for all of them for generations and I looked on very very poorly and I mean generally that those of us those are the groups that have suffered it's genocide in the pa. But bought a very very cool Easter even if she had sort of other minorities then descended other minorities with Grace had. The right in Europe at the very bottom of the food chain with regard to groups that she may have to send in the just word about the prosecution because that impressive list of played says and this is an international prosecution. Yes I meant that the International Court of Justice is not like the court people used to read the quote where countries go to resolve disputes between countries so it's not about individual. But the lawyers who are bad are our of our greatest team and it was fascinating listening to yesterday's argument. Very powerful argument I didn't day just a case that was brought by the Gambia was a very strong you know the argument provisional measures indeed are very very strong provisional measures have been granted by the court in cases that are much less extreme than what we have seen in Myanmar at the moment well thank you Susan very much and I should just note that the United States and in the form of the u.s. Treasury moved to sanction some leading members of the Myanmar government just yesterday as well imposing sanctions on 4 Myanmar military leaders. Of Asli direct result of this prosecution which is taking place in Stossel coach of justice. Well as yet. Yes sorry Susan I beg your pardon yes just carry on by all means All right thank you very much and I spent it fantastic and it's really important that other that other countries continue to support this case to the u.k. It's important to do good throughout the break that person important that sanctions that have been occurring through the e.u. Sanctions person transition across. The particularly because of the role that that's the violence played as a part of this genocide I was important that the u.k. Government I'm continued That whole of the around responding to conflict and I just want that I really play a really strong will and supporting the hands and supporting the cause of the sexual violence that occurred out of the genocide and. Preventing support. Businesses as well but has been really holding up the regime thank you in this case Susan Hutchinson Straley national device to the New Zealand volcano is still giving a lot of cause for alarm after the fatal folk out of corruption over the weekend when it erupted 47 people were on the island we know that in 6 fatalities 8 people missing presumed dead Marmol or as Professor school of geosciences. Sydney. Professor Mohler you you know the white tile and our walk out quite well do you. I do my wife and I visited the White Island in January 2018 and as tourists even though we're both geologists. It must've been quite a visit because I mean looking at the films that the whole place is covered and in Sulphur crystals in the most extraordinary outcroppings Yeah it's a really quite extraordinary it's unlike most other. Tourist experiences even the monks volcano tourism I'd say as from this one arrives once fitted out with hard hats and gas masks and a fast you saying to yourself isn't that a bit over the top but you realise soon that it's not. The whole place is a bleak landscape you know totally devoid of Florence wanna dotted for scraps of Yellow and White Sulphur crystals and as you start walking you know your past by steam vents bubbling pits of mud and hot book and extremes you know with these vivid hues of the yellow and orange all around you it's very picturesque picturesque but a little bit terrifying. It is and so they're. Hissing fumaroles everywhere so what's special about why the island is that most of it is submerged under the sea it's what but what sticks out at the top is only part less than 10 percent of it so the whole structure is actually about 1.6 kilometers tall about the sea floor and so sea water seeps into it all the time and into the magma chamber and it gets super heated and it comes out as the pressure drops and it comes out and so called fumaroles and some of springs and gases that can be up to $800.00 degrees hot and there are no fences barriers so it's a very raw and accelerating experience and I guess that's for the tracks tourist to these places and I don't kind of where there are any checks made you know on the likelihood of an eruption or anything when when you went on the island are were you told that so they much your own risk. That's right and you know you you sign a waiver and and the idea is you know that that's too and because at that point in time there hadn't been any major eruption felt for a while and I think to most people it's a bit like walking through say Yellowstone National Park you know which just you know another well known what kind of attraction I was just nothing generous at least not in recent memory to want to can but walk through these fields of of crisis and fumaroles there and and if one doesn't think about it too much then why did I learn my team like that is fair but it and the tribes didn't think about it sufficiently at the time when we went we just got lucky that it didn't erupt from Beaver the goodness sake yes you must be you must be shocked by the news and may I ask you as a geologist not. Having seen the this eruption this this you know whatever it was the island hopping on a call for or something. What do you say how long do you think it will take to return to the state it was in when you were on it. Well that's that's that's very hard to say and I think from from reading all the news reports and the local geology parts I think nobody is quite sure of that and one has to keep in mind that for the whole 'd time period between 975-2000. Why dial and had a long history of of your options and. The severity of these eruptions are measured by volcanic expressivity index and. It's a logarithmic scale like the one used for us quakes and so these eruptions typically have been up to. The number 3 and that means that the the stuff that's coming out can be a volume of up to 10000000 cubic kilometers associated with 3 to 515 kilometer plume and so you know these things have happened over you know a long time period several decades and by that irregular time intervals and so nobody you know I think nobody is actually able to predict. You know how long it's going to be quiet and France going to erupt again and it's all to do with the seawater that. Seeps into the volcano if it if it were to be sitting on dry land it would be more predictable. But as you said 10 percent of it is above that the ocean and the rest of it as some match here again that I remember from a volcanic eruption on. Was it's a solution one of the cabbie in. Islands on the hof of the island. I was covered in the lava and the other half of the island was just as I had been before. It could this be a similar situation yeah I'll of course and as I said before you know as a tourist and perhaps doesn't think about that sufficiently But if you look at the history of White Island there's a used to be a mining site such as far as being mined since the 18 hundreds and but in 9141 side of the crater wall collapsed completely. And caused a so-called lot harder than a mob so that at night that that and tired of the village where the miners were staying and and they were never found they were completely covered and so there is actually a history of this kind of thing happening there. And when geologists go to you know make surveys or studies do they stay on the island or do they just land like tourists from a boat for the day I'm pretty sure that nobody ever stays on this island. So you would you would just land. And deploy some equipment like a new camera. Seems like they would be needing a new camera now since the previous one was destroyed and yet to ply some equipment and then you would leave again and hope that you can monitor the volcano remotely as much as possible you would you would hope do you think there are going to be ever the opportunities the weather on this island again I mean given the international attention there has been and obviously this tragic loss of life. Yeah. I mean I think the answer is probably no I mean I think now I think that the whole lot has become more a larger to the risks and involved and and the unpredictability of of o.t.c. Eruptions. I think I would be surprised if for tourism. To continue there the problem is that the I don't desire to be small it's only. 2 or 3 kilometers in diameter and so that means even the relatively small eruption you can't get away from it you know because you're sort of trapped on the island and see you know hardly any right to hide you know their instructions how to hide behind a rock when this happens you know but also visibility but usually very poor if an eruption happens and instructions that I have. Not to walk anywhere and also I can stand just because you might be for you know stepping into a. Lake or something like that just sounds horrific Professor Miller thank you very much for talking to us You're very welcome news just saying coming in from. Bougainville which says that they have voted for their independence from popular New Guinea they voted to become the world's newest country in a non-binding referendum 97.7 percent of people supported the move however it still has to be ratified by the popular New Guinea legislature so we'll have to see what happens.

Good morning yes during the school the band of weather is long gone and the toughest would have 78 miles an hour and couple current Now today it is going to be a windy day but nothing like as windy as it was yesterday one thing you will notice though nationwide a much colder feel to the weather is going to be a day of sunshine and showers now will start off with the weather but you cross England Wales where across the middle in this central southern England and eastern areas of England it's going to be a sunny but cold starts the morning temperature around $2.00 to $4.00 degrees Celsius but a brisk southwesterly wind not a warm southwest from ice out across western England Wales meanwhile will start the day with showers moving in very quickly those showers will be heavy could you not crack a fund of extent and as we go through the day those showers going to be pushing eastwards into the Midlands and into eastern England come the afternoon so it is a day where most areas the vast majority of us will say at least one or 2 downpours during the day and the times it will be quite windy when those showers comes through we also drop the temperatures for a time as well there is going to be a cold kind of day temperatures ranging between 5 and 9 degrees Celsius for the picture in Northern Ireland here it's going to be a chilly start to the day as well we are going to see quite a lot of cloud and showers initially through the morning but should get a little bit brighter into the afternoon but showers will continue to feed in temperatures here at about 5 or 6 degrees Celsius so this can be a cold feeling they are in Scotland well across the Highlands of Scotland so there's a risk of some snow building with the tire elevations so this could be cold here plenty of showers from the word go some of the shows you how pale and thin them extend and it's going to be really quite a blustery day with some strong winds affecting the Scottish islands as we go through the day to Gale's props even Spago and the day here in temperatures struggling highs a 5 degrees Celsius to be a frustrating nights across Beeston areas the u.k. And then into Thursday a band of rain drops into the cold air bringing a short lived spell of fill snow to parts of northern England before Bob draft works back in stakeholder in Scotland for the which we shall we say Chris folk
