Morning - I'm Ricky,
and this is Newsround. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
First to the US, where flash floods
and mudslides have caused loads | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
of damage in southern California. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:22 | |
Rescue teams are trying to help
people after heavy rains | 0:00:22 | 0:00:26 | |
turned roads into rivers. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:27 | |
Witnesses have described large
rocks, the size of small cars, | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
rolling down hills, blocking roads
and destroying houses. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:34 | |
Police say more than 100 people have
been taken to hospital. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
At least 13 people have died. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:41 | |
Gay people can get married
everywhere in the UK apart | 0:00:41 | 0:00:45 | |
from in Northern Ireland. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:47 | |
Two women or two men have been able
to marry in England, | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
Scotland and Wales since 2014. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:51 | |
Martin's been speaking
to Northern Ireland, to find out | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
what people there think. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:57 | |
We're all just people
and we should have equal rights, | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
no matter who we are. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:00 | |
These kids set up this group
so there would be somewhere | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
for people who are gay and straight
to chat about things | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
that affect them. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:08 | |
And one big issue that comes up
again and again is gay marriage, | 0:01:08 | 0:01:12 | |
which isn't allowed in Northern
Ireland. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
I think it's old-fashioned and a bit
slow of the people making the laws. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:23 | |
It's unfair, because if say when I'm
older and I did truly love someone | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
and wanted to get married,
it just means that I | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
can't really do that. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:30 | |
If I could sit in front of people
that have the decision to change | 0:01:30 | 0:01:33 | |
this, I would tell them,
"What are you doing?" | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
Right now I shouldn't even be
here discussing why gay | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
marriage isn't a thing,
because it should | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
already be a thing here. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
There's like a lot of people
in our area who don't actually know | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
that gay marriage still isn't legal
in Northern Ireland. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:48 | |
Eventually it will change. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
I think we're just putting it off. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
But obviously it's going to happen. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
For Alice, there is another reason
why it's important to her that gay | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
people should be able to marry. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:03 | |
Her uncle is gay and lives
in the Republic of Ireland, | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
where gay marriage is allowed,
after moving from Northern Ireland. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:10 | |
How was it knowing that you couldn't
get married even if you wanted | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
to in Northern Ireland? | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
What it does do is it
tells you that you're not | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
the same as everybody else -
you're not allowed the same | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
freedoms as everybody else. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
And a lot of other people
in Northern Ireland want | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
the laws to change. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:25 | |
In a recent poll, over two thirds
of people here said they think gay | 0:02:25 | 0:02:29 | |
marriage should be allowed. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
The biggest political party
here is called the DUP. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:36 | |
And I'm just outside
their headquarters in Belfast. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:41 | |
The DUP don't believe in gay
marriage, and that's a big reason | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
why it hasn't happened
in Northern Ireland - | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
unlike England, Wales and Scotland. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:51 | |
Now we wanted to speak
to someone from the DUP, | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
but no one wanted to be interviewed. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
But someone who would
speak to us was John. | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
He is a Christian. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:00 | |
He thinks that gay marriage
is against what is religion teaches. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:06 | |
In the Bible I believe that marriage
is something that we didn't create - | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
it's something that was given to us
as a gift by God. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
I think God suggests that
marriage is something | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
between a man and a woman. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:15 | |
I think it's important that
all people are treated well, | 0:03:15 | 0:03:20 | |
all people are treated with dignity,
all people are respected, | 0:03:20 | 0:03:22 | |
no matter their creed,
colour or sexual orientation. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
And I think that is fair. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
They're hard to see, but you can
probably find them in your | 0:03:31 | 0:03:35 | |
bathroom at home -
I'm talking about microbeads. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:38 | |
The UK has just banned them -
but what exactly are they? | 0:03:38 | 0:03:41 | |
Here's Ayshah. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:43 | |
Microbeads are a tiny
balls of plastic smaller | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
than five millimetres -
roughly the size of a grain of sand. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:49 | |
They're used in some shower gels,
face washes and toothpaste to help | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
add that extra scrub. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
But now the UK has banned making
products containing them. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
Why? | 0:03:57 | 0:04:00 | |
They say trillions of microbeads end
up in the world's oceans, | 0:04:00 | 0:04:05 | |
lakes and rivers, and that harms
the sea life who eat them | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
or breathe them in by mistake. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:09 | |
Just one shower can lead
to 100,000 plastic particles | 0:04:09 | 0:04:13 | |
going into the ocean. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:14 | |
Many companies have already
taken steps to remove | 0:04:14 | 0:04:18 | |
microbeads from their stuff. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
And although making things with them
has now been banned, | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
microbeads won't be removed
from shops completely | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
until later this year. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
Environmental campaigners hope
a worldwide ban will soon follow. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:32 | |
Manchester City came from behind
to beat Bristol City | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
in their League Cup
semi-final first leg match. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
Bristol City took the lead
from the penalty spot | 0:04:41 | 0:04:43 | |
through Bobby Reid
at the Etihad Stadium. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:46 | |
Kevin de Bruyne then
equalised for Man City, | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
before substitute Sergio Aguero
scored this late injury-time winner. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:54 | |
It means Manchester City take a 2-1
lead into their second match | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
in a couple of weeks. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:58 | |
That's it from us. | 0:04:58 | 0:04:59 | |
We'll see you in just
over half an hour. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 |
