spain is a country with high unemployment. there's just not enough jobs for so many people. the spaniards see things differently and tony don't have bad volunteers for an aid organization and supports migrants like i do any way he can. he helps up to plant vegetables and takes care of red tape and tell you who sees the refugees as an economic factor the plantations in the region couldn't get by without them. thanks to these people many others are getting rich. the immigrants live off what little money they can earn so they're cheap labor. but. they're not going to work the problem they have to put up with everything and never complain. i do see the bay wants people to know what's really happening in europe. but he's not ready to give up on his dream of a better life. now i'm living. on my farm. to help myself. you know. what my future. will be. eventually once he saved enough money to be intends to return to ivory coast my son needs me he says all of africa needs us but that's in the future right now he's got to figure out where he can sleep tonight. some news now from the s

my advice would be stick to the north of spain, green spain as we cool it. it is one of the least visited parts of the country and it is cooler, still very hot at the moment but i would head up there and if you are going to hit madrid or barcelona or seville, just get in rhythm with the locals, see what the locals are doing. if no one is on the street followed that, stick to the shady side of the street, drink a lot of water and make sure you wear loose clothing and just be aware of how you feel. if it is getting hot, jump into a bar where there is a conditioning and grab some tapas! as we've been hearing, the us secretary of state says he's hopeful that north korea's nuclear programme can be stopped, despite a un report that says it is continuing. mike pompeo has called on his counterparts at the association of southeast asian nations to maintain diplomatic and economic pressure on pyongyang. it has been revealed that a us diplomat handed a letter for the north korean leader, kim jong—un, from president trump, to north korea's foreign minister at the meet

first of all this this migration deal between germany and spain it's so important for chants or at least it seems to be what she's been saying about it all. well cc's the merits of it of something being seen to be done which is looking old but which aims to be a pan-european now this is very coded language for basically saying that a couple of weeks ago she was an intense pressure from her own interior minister to actually demonstrate that action is being taken with the e.u. still being stuck on that very issue of migration that this also itself sees as key for the e.u. to prove that it can actually solve problems of this magnitude now her interior minister has gone ahead and. force this first bilateral deal essentially committing spain to do what it would have to do under previous provisions anyway which is to take back already registered migrants from germany but the german chancellor sees the merit of demonstrating that this is something that she's making headway on that her government is making headway on in europe. jumping on the bandwagon in a sense we've been told in the way that

in the summer in the northern hemisphere, when you go to spain, andi hemisphere, when you go to spain, and i have seen temperatures nudging 40 celsius in spain, but when you have that heat building day after day, and it is very warm across parts of north africa, so with a southerly wind pushing the air across, a combination of these things, higher pressure, it's not going anywhere and that's why would temperatures are getting close to the record. a lot of people will talk about climate change, so is there a connection? of course, we can never take one particular weather event and distribute it to climate change. that being said, the met office has said in recent weeks that the temperatures we are seeing at the moment, which we feel are perhaps extreme, could become the norm by 2040. you also have to put other things in context, while we are talking about this extreme heat there have been other parts of europe that have been very much cooler than average. iceland, for example, is having a shocker of a summer example, is having a shocker of a summer to the north of the jet stream. and j
