  Speaker 1: Devin Greiz that you can. You're correspondent, Gevin. What's happening
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: with the elections in Germany.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Well, it's certainly going to be pretty exciting. According to
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: projections now, it looks like the far right Alternative for
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Deutschland is set to win nearly a third of the vote,
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: coming up to thirty one percent of the vote in
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: a projection for the public broadcast to ard. That is
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: six points ahead of the Conservative CDU party. And if
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: you look at the three governing parties in the coalition,
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: they are well behind those two parties, and if confirmed,
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: it would give the far right its first vote win
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: in a state parliament since World War II and the Nazis. However,
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: it's unlikely to be able to form a government in
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: the state of Thuringia because other parties are refusing to
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: have anything to do with the Alternative for Deutschland. Five
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: million Germans are eligible vote in the two state elections.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: The Alternative for Deutschland is also close behind the Conservative
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: CDU in the election for the state parliament in Saxony.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: There we're getting a slightly improved rating for the CDU
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: and the Alternative for Deutschman again polling at thirty point
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: four percent, and the other three governing parties well down
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: on that as well. Why will we've had the knifing
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: has reported a couple of weeks back or a week
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: or so back now, and that was by a Syrian
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: asylum seeker. And I think basically immigration has played a
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: huge part in these two elections. And there's another election
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: coming up in a couple of weeks in the state
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: of Brandenburg.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: All Right, given the key we skipper of the Basi
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: and the yacht that sank in near Sicily. The crew
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: members are talking. What are they saying?
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they are They've been talking to local reporters. The
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: most recent interview has been given by Matthew Griffiths, and
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: he was a crew member of that yacht. You're a
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: member that seven people died, including sorry, seven people died
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: in the British tech tycoon Mike Lynch in that luxury
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: yacht sinking off the Sicilian port of Porticello back on
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: August the nineteenth. Now, what Matthew Griffiths, who was on
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: watch duty on the night of the disaster, says to
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: investigators is the crew members did everything they could to
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: save those on board. He said, I quote I woke
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: up the captain when the wind was twenty knots that's
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: roughly thirty seven kmph Ryan, and he gave the orders
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: to wake everyone else up. The ship then tilted and
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: we were thrown into the water. We managed to get
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: back up on and then tried to rescue those we could.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: He said, we were walking on the walls of the
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: boat and basically we did try and save everyone, and
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: there were fifteen survivors. Now, the boat's captain, the Keiwe,
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: James Cupfield, and the ship engineer Tim Parker Eaton and
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Matthew Griffiths, who's given this interview are all placed under
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: investigation by the Italian authorities for potential manslaughter and shipwrate.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: But and I must stress being investigated does not imply
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: guilt and does not mean formal charges will follow.
