commerce secretary can add the question he just has to have a legitimate reason to do it and this isn't it so practically speaking this probably means it will not be on the 2020 census because the government says they have to start printing the forms they need to do that by the end of this month so it seems like that they want to add that question there out of time. the european union is a ging italy to allow $42.00 migrants on board a german rescue ship to be allowed to shore the sea watch 3 is now and could it just off the island of lampedusa and entered italian waters despite repeated warnings from the interior minister mattis salary me the captain says the hand is being forced by west wing conditions on board and the italian are certainties have just come on board the ministry has stopped on sunday something to something they have been checking all or some such accounts in the house and morning of the crew. have knowledge they are waiting for from the instructions from disappearing as i really have devil take the rescue ease off the ship soon. wildfires burning

ok and i really could be in the stream today the fee for a women's world cup $29.00 teams could this year's tournament be a game changer for women's football some of the biggest matches are being played over the next couple of days and if you're following the tournament tell us why and you highlight so far so that your comments via twitter or in the live you tube channel which i get them into the show. the u.s. women's national soccer team led up to this and fighter. and you're in the.

how is this year's women's world cup changing attitudes towards women's football compared to past tournament's the event hosted by france this year is already breaking viewing records around the world but joining us to talk about some of the stories that have come from the tournament so far in new york erica a sports writer and social activists and la france and out the world cup to be a bari is the sports journalist with t.v. see news and going to beach florida lauren silber she's a midfielder for the jamaican national team and in lagos nigeria super star fender uno may be she made history this year as the 1st african to play in 5 world cup tournaments congratulations nobody is smiling grinning at that. i have been looking at your instagram account and it really takes into the atmosphere behind the scenes special access that you've got as you've been reporting on the women's world cup i

have to share this instagram here the full can celebrate that progression to round 60 for the 1st time in 20 years i'm going to press play be ready for a party. oh yes oh oh. oh. that was to be a very what is happening here. there is the role of goalie i believe where how can you do a little girl's how do you qualify the course. and chile doing very well for you will have to get into their own 16 so that mary sue is just one of those days when things just go your way so they couldn't control the emotions and to me it was it was just too good not to culture and ceremony ok as a way to i thing and that is only go back to you know my you know my what was it wanted to get through to the for as 16. i go it's something really amazing because before we went for the walk or people you know i tag it so.

we had to do that so it's really something nobody can hold those windows up to for everything oh it's with joy and all that so it's just was really amazing erica i just miss fastenal part of the show looking at some of the highlights from the wall comps i saw so you what was your highlight so far there's been so many highlights but i think generally speaking it it's also reflected in this conversation there's been so many women of color that have been at the forefront as journalists of course as players and for me that's exciting because i think that football certainly here in the united states definitely has a long way to go when it comes to showing that women and girls of color can play the sport and the level. so i love hearing all of the highlights the highs of this year's tournament i hate to break up the party because

online people are sharing what they see as some of the lows and that seems to be the biggest thing that is on their mind so let's dip right into that this is santos here who says i watch the women's world cup with hopes of seeing a much improved organization i was shocked to see how referees and v.a. are which is a bit e.o.'s assistant referee in arguably helped kick out africa's 3 teams every just critic will agree that cameroon one theory and south africa are key to its sad for africa so he's not the only one who had that if you want to play a video comment from someone who talked about his perspective on this your sternum it including that b a r controversy this is a mode he's a sports journalist and here's what he told the stream thanks for having me my name is almost your hooligan from the max sense for illegals nigeria i think this was called the reverse of those to restore it's never movements and also the new rule

on penalties the european nations also once again of the challenge given the americans are among the this time around 7 year punishments in the finals and of course i think. the americans. so lauren this is your 1st world cup of course that comes with a lot of excitement there but then you you hear about what people online see as a controversy what's your take. i mean in terms of the like and i think it's kind of just changing the game in a negative way like i say to a lot of people i just feel like it's. you know like when we go back and we watch and the referees that make a call in a regular game like in pascual cups you know if you go back and you look at those games like the people who won at the time like may not have to technically won the tournament basically are today so when you have that kind of discrepancy in some of the calls and it's it's kind of changing the course of the game that for me is it's

a problem and it's kind of unfortunate that i mean this is my 1st world cup so i haven't experienced it with that you know are but a kind of lit up like that. i'm just looking ahead to feel well as well come up 20 and there was a media point for talking about the refereeing and this went on for quite a long time and safe i was talking about how from macho all the way for to june that they were friendly games and that the players were able to practice using this technology but most teams women's teams who are playing around the world i'm not using this technology a tool koreatown not only are women not using our walk around the world but it is like the records of women's it's a women's tournament which is kind of one of the arguing points for me why bring it in the women's tournament but then also in the world cup and while maybe some teams are are have the opportunity to use it there's a lot of teams who don't have the opportunity to use it so then there's a question of like. you know they're playing in the hands literally fat 0 for me it

for me basically it's been not less is really about the players who has been able to use it or not but the referees know how many of those referees have been able to professionally use this technology you know in active competitions because i felt there was an over real reliance on the be our friend the referees some to see sions were either delayed or you know anticipated by directories and it will either go to the beer are there was you know there was a level of you know the referee taken hold of the fish and then say ok add in the human element which for all really is about. for me to just went to whatever the beer was showing they forgot about the human element which will fortunately we have seen with some of the men's competition where the references says yes they might have been contact but the player got the ball 1st which really sometimes this is what the game's all about so for me i feel it was more with the off the ship

than the players and the awareness of what we are to bali you think that and i would just add this to perry and was actually at that press conference and they said that they wanted to make the game more entertaining more fans and to up the tempo acca had. well i was just going to say that the conversation has kind of been on v.a.r. itself and how even the players have reacted to v.a.r. but i think that there is a piece of this that for me is missing from the conversations as far as what are the actual rules of the sport and when you have something that supposed to be cut and dried which really is it because you still have to scratch and from the officials but then you're trying to utilize something that's cut and dry for rules that you know of themselves can be arbitrary it makes it a best and it seems like there was very little time for as was mentioned earlier for certain teams in particular to react to this and additionally i agree why do this at the women's world cup the pinnacle of the sport for

a lot of people is you know and it just it. grew in the flow of a lot of these games how do you try to something like that lauren if i don't think you train for that but it's just like it's just the opportunity to practice with it like the referees for instance if it is something that we're going to use we need to be my profession not it and if we're going to go with it make sure that all the teams and all the referees members working at understands how to properly use it for instance like i think one of the things that it ruins for me for the game is the opportunity to just play if you're in a vacuum thing about being a are like that was previously mentioned if you're if you're going into it's happening as a player you don't want to have to be thinking oh man i've got to make sure this looks good on television when i'm going to tackle and i stick a tackle and i get contact on well if i follow through and i make contact with the player and i get to be reviewed by the b.r. i think that's a little bit cheap because obviously my intent isn't to injure the player but if i come in contact with them after i touch the ball and then they decide to call

a penalty on that i don't think that's fair i don't think that this is a display this going to go on for quite some time and i think you jump in here and i'm going to move on just a little bit further because so much to talk about this whole company. if i say something like a good way to have this argument with you are free i think it's a good judgment like she and she called off. that i was actually this is not the follow you if you will you know made the decision to read it was like they called me from the it's not my decision to call me that all that yes it's your decision you either are free you make the decision on the far don't don't think decisions for you they got action for something but you have the final say well she's like no law they have it's really crazy it's really crazy out there that this conversation is annoyed over that i'm going to move us on just a little bit because the tournament is more than just about football so i want to

tell you about some of the winning football as who are also fighting for equal pay and recognition how to listen to what the sports illustrated reporter wall had to say about that. if you go on stub right now and look at the prices on the open market for one tickets to the usa france quarterfinal that everyone is excited about here you're going to be paying anywhere from 530 dollars on the low end to $3800.00 for a single ticket i have never seen any prices like that ever for a women's soccer game this is just for a quarter final but it gives you an idea of how much buzz there is that's a reflection of the interest in this women's world cup interest equals dollars and so i say. the women. pay the women so i think a lot of people in our audience agree this is commando bandit that's her hand though

if u.s. soccer as a whole generates x. amount of revenue then the women should be entitled to more of a cut they can actually make it to the world cup and when it the men struggle to perform well in one of the easiest international groups so that's their opinion there but commando did get some pushback this is someone who says the ad revenue for men is way higher and the advisers pay more for ads on the men's game so your beef should be with the corporate sponsors and ad buyers not so much the corporations and the football associations behind it lauren way in on this debate here because the last time you joined the stream we had a long conversation about pay scale and fairness and equality talk to us about now that we're here 2019 july where has that needle moved. yes so a comment that i want to make i'm really sick and tired of people kind of comparing like forcing women to compared to men's pay even though that's they were going to

form equality but it's kind of like women are against men in our federation and i don't think that's the case at all and i think like having and having what he just said about the prices of the tickets shows that there's interest in the game so there's interest in the game that entered into money and i think like in turn goes to paying the women in terms of contracts like i was i think i mentioned before that norway i think there are now equal pay in terms of their federations i believe so the men and women are getting paid exactly the same that is new and there's been a lot of talk along the way from wildfires all the way to the world cup where a lot of other federations have it don't slack i need to make. we didn't have contracts before and we're working out contracts now but we have we've signed contracts and we've got to be i'm not saying this down the federation i'm not saying this to offend anybody all i'm doing is speaking my truth and when there's

talk about contracts and we just qualified for a world cup and then we played in a world cup and moves have not been made or things are still that messy to meet or make very much sense because clearly there's interest and i don't know i just feel like that's an excuse and let me share this with you this is from. south africa it's about not about yana. football team for the women's well cup for south africa they got power to they got to get the same bonuses that the guys get so they did things do you all screw for the well. meanwhile the super falcons it's like a team like hearing you're always going on strike trying to get your money how's your telling me. yes they were fighting about that because in my country the guys like it's way way

higher than the female side so it was actually if it got even gets to half the men like the guys because we were girl it's our country so i think with the south more than what we're getting or when fighting this for a long time i think it's not ever. getting close busy fighting for and i i hope it gets close because really. it's a bit embarrassing for me really because as much as i wanted to focus on reporting the fact that we had returned for the walk up watching from like jim occurring goal like i can do stories like that because i have to talk about the fact that we do girls cannot be in pain which is a bit of brass and then most people get that half of what the men are getting and the men how are you really african cup of nations the women have 9 judges shoes you know i think. it's i think those are the bonus

accents for the ball to get higher like to what the guys are reaching out on final because of it and. the difference is too much for men is just too much compared to what they bring to the nation the support our current players we have so much expectation because we believe we can actually complement the trophy we know that you make a difference well the men will look the last in africa. the other day the nation's top was going on but so few was prepared to watch the women's world cup because the game was better so i feel the nigerian football federation can actually . do better by this really does because i think the pleading you can see how emotional the well you can see how much they wanted to. i don't do this when i git away you could see the kind of celebration people would it in when they got into the round of 16 because they always got those diable yeah glued to the walk up and come back up with the marches or busy that was

a big demoralizing for them so getting old of the group stages was a very important but as it stands i don't know when we will be able to even get there how. so eric i can see you trying to get in there i want to share with you from our audience this is monroe mclaren she's a student and she's a big u.s. women's soccer fan and she talks to us almost as though she is one of the teammates here is the have a listen to what she said. to the question is should women's national soccer team be paid equally to the men's national soccer team and yes there's no doubt about it they should be better and more successful than the men national soccer team we've won 3 world cup titles we've won 4 gold medals in the summer olympics and altogether we've won more games and then the national team asked. in 2015 after we won our sure broke up kind of women repeat a mere $1700000.00 to the men's $5300000.00 that they won after losing in the 16th

round of the world cup we won our little cup title again we're paid less than the man so i stand with 2 women for better pay equal pay and i wish him the best of luck in the rest of the world cup term. so erica mentions the money but it's not even just that a look here on you tube this just came in live from elizabeth rainey who says i wish we did not schedule other major tournaments like the copa america during the women's world it seems like it is not in service to the women so not just about pay but about eyeballs and about promotion where do you fall on that i mean that of this is in service to women i mean that that i think sometimes gets buried in the complexity of the issue itself not of this is answers to women and that is the true problem but the problem is if we take the united states for example the viewers have said it it's in the most recent lawsuit that the team filed that there was a time in the u.s.

soccer federation where the women were carrying the financials as as in they were making the money for the federation and who's to say if that can't continue but the problem the issue that we see when it comes to women's sports is that unfortunately a lot of the times and it goes back to a comment that we got through twitter that the marketing isn't there so there are so many angles with which to hit this and i think it's it's exhausting to constantly hear and and to hear that women feel that they have to be successful to get a fraction of what men get even when they're not successful and so i feel for reporters like myself who have to have these conversations he certainly for the athletes who have to talk about what we have to erica it's interesting because on the inside story on al-jazeera just a few days ago tatiana henry and was a former f.a.a. head of women's football addressed this head on this is what she told us on our desire to have a listen. there's not enough interest there's not enough i think seriousness there

is not enough decision making power if you look at all these organizations and you look in detail on the expertise in women's football and the number of women involved in the decision making process then it's obvious to see that there's a huge lack of know how and that of course resonates in priorities and in also political decisions and in this area men's football in the men's world cup and the elite level of women's football is still dominating which gives women's football only a little area to grow. the year which i had to say there as the tournaments heads into the quarter finals though we should talk about what we want to see in the remainder of the world cup to start us off is sharing ahmed who hosts the feminist sports podcast burn it all down hi everybody each minute here what i'm looking forward to the most for the remainder of the women's world cup is definitely following france i'm predicting a france netherlands final but also i'm very interested in italy and i'm interested

because it's a team that wasn't necessarily supported it's the 1st time back in the women's world cup after 20 years i also want to see how all these teams are supported particularly now with you a 1st new initiative to grow the game so i will be watching all of this with a lot of excitement. today barry she is predicting a france netherlands final you can see here on google if you are confused many are audience members and want to know what's coming up next what happens in the next few days here it is on my screen your prediction studio very well i feel of the tournament we'll be right for. what i don't see them in the final fortunately i have many of the middle and they have this one caught up with the ladies the. press there were i want to see them in the finals but my prediction is that we didn't have by them. eric. this is tough i think

it's really going to depend what we see tomorrow between the united states and france united states has looked rocky in my personal opinion in this tournament i agree with a lot of other people that italy is a team that i'm very excited to see clay another has had a great tournament as well so i'm not really ready to make it predictions necessarily against the united states but i think that they have definitely have a target on their back and teams have showed up to challenge them so it's going to be a great run regardless. for question to ask something he's been playing in this tournament but as you go playing out the other team teams heard anything the were his is a gut telling you is going to be playing on the final on july the 7th. i really want france to be in there just because i really enjoy it like i love good feeling and as a good book larry like we are now of years is not ron so i feel like prince i have

a good chance to really cool calm experience. style and please impeccable and true professionals on the field like i love. wrestling just like the pages of a no main action hero and i may if you don't want this show teddy well you can share it with me it's a fine chat and your predictions for july the 7th who is going to be in the final. thing go. for. it because i think it's really only were for the few that won't play in. all their hearts and. it's long been for the local. bar so i thought of are some of it and. we will find out soon enough money to have this conversation going down on one more prediction from many who says the semi's on words will get k.g. rather than free flowing i think the usa will be obvious favorites with another

lens being my dark horses so so many firsts in this woman's while cops have an historic moments including the end of ho well cup career but what a way to go out she's played in 7 role cup she scored in 7 well cups she's been voted the best player on the planet 6 times in a fee for paul had a miss mata she plays for brazil this is how she left the pitch on her final well cup game and this is how we're going to end the show enjoy. get m.r.i.'s every now miles as you could our minds at that brought the fragile that know very thing my story the mood splotchy not so very simple best but as many of those who've i don't want to meet up i say what i don't know might the president in the white dog leash you put above i mean the thing to do will said yes but that's a bit of a very it don't be so nice overload is it might shock you look i'm

rex tillerson the u.s. state department is not driving u.s. foreign policy that u.s. foreign policy was being driven out of the white house by the president's top advisers including by his son in law jarrett cushion or her hold the title of senior adviser to the president in tillerson started finding out about things such as the u.s. trying to negotiate a new type of financial and trade relationship with mexico because he happened to run into the mexican foreign minister in a restaurant and didn't know that he was in town he said that he pulled jarrett cushion or aside and basically said we can't have this happening again it's confusing the work of the state department and it's confusing our allies and partners around the world. 2 suicide bomb attacks in the tunisian capital within the space of an hour have killed a police officer and wounded several other people the interior minister is calling

demand in talks on saving the 2050 nuclear deal is for the country to be able to sell its oil senior officials will meet with the 5 remaining members of the nuclear agreement in vienna on friday in an attempt to save the deal u.n. inspectors believed to han is on course to breach the nuclear agreement within days by accumulating more in which to reign in ben permitted. the european union is to allow 42 people rescued attempting to cross the mediterranean 2 weeks ago to be allowed ashore the rescue boat sea washed 3 is now anchored just off the island of lampedusa after entering italian waters in defiance of repeated warnings from the italian interior minister veiny. all those the headlines coming up next shadow world that reveals the shocking realities of the global arms trade mornings after that stay with us.

when we stumbled on the saudi arms deal the outcome of the deal we really started to stumble on a central feature of british politics over the last 30 years is sure harness french pound has been at the heart of many of the great world events of the past 30 years i was always peace to see him when i was prime minister. she considers saudi arabia as a strong friend and would be willing to support taking them with whatever the kingdom needs and of discussion from there on everything else was technical. he explained to mrs thatcher that this was a deal with saudi arabia and therefore things were done differently. they wanted

$43000000000.00 worth of weaponry that was $6000000000.00 pounds in commission. the fos majority of most people understand is. what an executive goes to bribe a foreign official he says to himself look i've taken a lot of risk to take this $5000000.00 that i'm paying to the prime minister of x. y. z. he makes an arrangement with prime minister of x.y.z. . i'll hand over the 5000000 but you take half of that 5000000 and you send it to the following bank account and shortfall and again nothing is money i don't mind paying bribes to politicians it's part of the deal the thing about politicians is that they're very much like prostitutes but only more expensive. from the 1950 s. o. . all the way through the 1970 s. the cia and the u.s. military were engaged in covert actions throughout central med america throughout

africa really throughout the world where they were assassinating populist leaders they were backing up right wing military juntas funding and arming death squads like the contras in nicaragua or battalion $316.00 and under us and there were these spate of assassinations across the globe. individuals operating in the shadows they never having their names called are able to leverage the power of the military and the foreign policy apparatus for their own personal pick uni ery and. our war on terror. begins with al qaida. but it does not in.

this very very swollen on terror is irrational it's like saying. a war on all war on violence a war that it's nonsense you stepping into this possibility of confidential war. our your little kid reassuring us and we kept believing him because you don't want to think your prime minister is deceiving you and the route to a war one is nothing more serious. when really serious fraud office launched its investigation into all the crimes that we were covering it turned out that many of these arms deals have been forced through by tony blair personally he said david kay saddam salesman when ever there was a dispute ever in government he always found the onset. the serious fraud office got to the brink of uncovering the secret swiss bank accounts by which be was from

owning money to the saudi royal family the swiss said we're going to notify the bank account holders randolph flew to london blast swung into action. he ordered the serious fraud office to close down their investigation. prince bandar said if the investigation continued they would withdraw a national security cooperation which would lead in the words of prince bandar to blood on the streets of london. the story we've been banging away out for more than 5 years suddenly really worked up to it because everybody could see was a huge cover up scandal the spectacle of a british prime minister closing bell of a criminal investigation. were you aware that your government was approving payments to a friend of president bush's as part of british aerospace is kicked back system is that why you suspended a fraud inquiry. when tony blair started talking about national security interests

that's supposed to be a card that trumps all others i don't believe the investigation is that it would have led anywhere except to the complete wreckage of a vital strategic relationship for our country in terms of fighting terrorism in terms of the middle east in terms of british interests there. so these things absolutely stunning it seems to be a very expensive way of organizing payment when was the military equipment and now the money. blair came to south africa specifically to lobby the be the british weapons manufacturer one the biggest contract on our arms deal. and the option that they presented was 2 and

a half times more expensive than the plane that the south african air force actually wanted to be a nice systems real performance real advantage. as monday was about to step down from public life his successor tabel and betty made the decision to spend around $10000000000.00 quite scarce public resources on this weaponry that we didn't need. rather than provide lifesaving me. cation for the almost 6000000 south africans who were then living with hiv. the primary reason for those deals was that around $300000000.00 in bribes were paid to senior politicians. and sadly to the african national congress the a.n.c. my own party. i was called in by

a senior member of the a.n.c. is national executive council he said to me look angry this is a battle you cannot win because this money the briars we used to fund our 999 election. and almost immediately i'm asked to make a statement to the press that says there's nothing to investigate. it's all over. and i looked at him last said no it's not. i won't be able to live with myself if i stop this investigation but at the same time i'm also realizing that this is the end of my political career. the heads of government of the sales people in chief of their countries large arms contractors. and this is the template used by large defense contractors around the world.
