3:16 pm
it's the same realisation that sparked the 2011 base of resistance which spread from sin that must be very. clear to the soul in spain and across europe to bulgaria romania still enough and even for a short. the week in bosnia the citizens assemblies went beyond making easy to satisfy demands and like all colonial resistance movements demanded the right to rule themselves. what you can see in the european union today is that we have at least 2 directions one directions we have seen in hungary and in other countries where we have the rise of fascist right wing extremist movements what we can see in paris today is that we have also an attempt all direct democracy which is not linked to right wing
3:17 pm
extremism but that is linked to the critique of the labor law which was the trigger for both us it is linked to movements to try to help the refugees and it is a creation of a new political image a nation. and in part 2 we look at what debt could take us. down to 0 cost to god just to be become a trial. means to lie on their expertise sneaks. mcalpin for their traditional music and down to adapt and survive in order to. ride just hands down series on how to see my.

3:23 pm
a great question and maybe one of the political teary condoms. maybe instead the answer is to be found in how ordinary people are coping with the crisis. in greece some of the energy from syntagma square has come here. what we can see here looks like a very ordinary market think seem like any other market in europe you can see people selling not people selling food people selling cheese. but it's not an ordinary market it's a very unique market. a complete horrible economy is being created in greece because of the financial crisis. it's called the no middle men movement and it's a response to greece's powerful supermarkets who try to increase prices while paying farmers less so some decided to cut out the middleman and sell basics like eggs and potatoes directly to the people. the big difference is customers order
3:24 pm
everything you know the ones true the organizers and come here before picking up their boots. and exchanging shopping habits as people grouped together to buy cheaply involved. it's visit today was not an option these days not show business goes on nationally how would you like one so don't feel really in one month. what is that amount of money which is circulating do you know if it's because i just. happen to you know someone 16 emotion he says you have less than 5045 p.c. because what you call off maybe a shot of the managers are getting worse and they're just getting worse because of the crisis. the community run market also asks everyone to help support those in need because the producers have to give a percentage of the sales in food. what is the percentage they get
3:25 pm
a voucher i think. so this is the basket of solidarity all of you know that come in but not from the producer everyone of the consumer who comes here may if your she wants. some formed. when there's more than this movement of solidarity started. just 10 families now after for. those. we have 140 families. so no. no and we don't want the state involved because this is a. movement of people of peoples who have the power. they feel the power back they couldn't rely anymore on the government and on the other
3:26 pm
they didn't want to sell their goods to the supermarkets. particularly interesting as someone who was born in yugoslavia. we should experimental called self management socialism is that all of this functions as a kind of self management although when you speak to the people. they wouldn't describe themselves as socially. you see such things it gives us hope that include a few 1000000 things football differently. you can see why the no middleman movement wants to stand apart from the state but to bring about large scale change don't citizen led movements need to be brave or. i mean humble germany the heart of the european empire to hear about one such movement that's profoundly changed the city. germany has
3:27 pm
a very active environmental movement as demonstrated in actions like this one in 2010. it was a protest against what in fact the swedish company had allowed to repeat accidents to cure at nearby nuclear power plants. so 120000 people joined hands to link the 2 power stations together a distance of over 100 kilometers. after that protest numbers felt empowered to take on powerful companies as well as the state under the leadership of the huns. we came here very. evident and on fanfare many of whom were even just one on one less humble who might want to get across and just say yes to. such a thing was previously on the ship right yeah. really. probably only going to stephany's not yeah. into
3:28 pm
$990.00 s. that you urged countries to liberalize calls for privatized their energy markets. this vattenfall took over much of germany's energy supply including cumbersome electricity grid. until that because campaign convinced the city to buy it back. it isn't the asters you know family time via intel isn't. because i'm it isn't that slightest it'll go damaged when 10000 on the. side just refer to folks in charge of a few not $50000.00 write it. and what were the main arguments of the complaint. and you know it's a innocent john paul fundament busy freudian and even though i know that some can you know even a center complex is a ho on the nets are never and if have been no color orange doesn't.
3:29 pm
trouble as a benefit in football has been dozen of an issue and. they only managed to narrow win in the referendum with just 50.9 percent in favor. probably because they were up against the entire establishment the mayor the main centralized and right parties the energy companies and even the unions. as a share in the we should often. does the humble zulfi of the victim gangs of you dust and foreign take on an entree reasoning and doesn't quote him via poor government program once he's in that soviets or go forward and does m yeah that's moving hard to not. and in 2016 bought back then and there's a great so now its profits go back to the city. the gas and heating networks will follow soon and nightmare for the energy companies and their investors.
3:30 pm
can send our home via the tin and things message it's just fired for a nexus on a national hunt bust and this needs to assume the angst to copy tides for him girl that is it just wasn't my point. after the fall of the venom hole that was your job to 0 sum for what is a chanson free market ideology what we have seen in homework is that maybe today they said yes challenge and we have a new kind of enthusiasm which isn't was just to take back the public message. since then 170 german towns have taken back control of their energy grid. some as a result of pressure from citizens some through the policies of forward thinking mayors. in the former east germany one such mayor has come up with
3:31 pm
a unique way of handling the refugee crisis. 2 there. on my journey i've seen refugees forced to leave in appalling conditions and defined as the political other. but in friedland's they have to take. in a different approach. this was once a busy town full of factories processing regional agricultural produce but the fall of the berlin wall so factories close and the jobs leave. merivale block of the century right christian democrats is a former factory worker determined to save the town and. it's sort of a big if i goes over to luckily for friedland the mayor has plenty of energy.
3:32 pm
as a hero i know of course between rushed out. to 0 up and on and off to pursue vice. in tamer or and in a companion it's one and mention god compile your eyes and yes i believe even. when the berlin wall came down west germany privatized the state on the east german economy enterprises deemed uncompetitive were sold for a pittance and close even though he. didn't. have. to for it seen and thus flight of our hood someone does find nish so if i'm in the normal force has i did ah god in-vitro by. your own slim idli who understand that we are seeing between the up in the gold one of. the fin
3:33 pm
and his that's an odd splits and. despite attempts to attract new industry most young people move away so the population here is shrinking and getting older isn't the start one and fear dimension. and as one can imagine in finland best so the mayor had an idea to both help refugees in need and revive his town. i don't do it in the nuclear bombs let me beaten to the mention of and victims with the kinds and forms on this most missed killing and border. so it's time to see the constant because i'm the animal i need to shift to do what it is now that that's very divided let's form an alpha. i am under the flight ship he didn't figure income others are the most my commanding ones on the. side of the shining i was often seen
3:34 pm
once and flights of fancy ports and daddy has been convinced quarter 2. so they've asked for more than they're both up refugees and they're even trying to mine their bribery to convince them to stay. c 2 there. floating exchange you can see this is the place where the refugees. they can get free this is sort of folks. you know yeah i know you have no gang now yes i'm very small that oh that's just gross. and they feel no conflict because there was no real good man i. think you know you are so fucking that here now yeah come you know thinking that they can do. that munch on my crushing the oh yeah yeah and he's going to clanking i can be king
3:35 pm
and almost. talking to the mayor you begin to understand why uncle america was keen for germany to accept so many syrian refugees here bombing anslinger back these lies in gaza me that's good but i have already one have since been. totally bombed you know you. did it before i was shown the most time and the chance to win the business by. which 450 refugees living in. small town there is the potential for conflict and misunderstanding but the mayor has set up a committee to avoid just that. show the telephone this is the meeting this is the meeting of religion on the walls or trying to block out of. social services the job center churches schools and businesses all sent representatives here hardly dislike them in the present that even phone them through clinton here they have me missing the family or let me do it yeah yeah but
3:36 pm
maybe it's a good idea. dr morse you can also hold the classes rheumatism i just feel for pulling teeth pulled from. the minute necessary and. then there was a mushroom do or die knows afghanistan clean. the neck of my local fire it's a version of here. this short. while i live all in the willing and. we did the shooting was awful. so there was a doctor from syria already here varies here today in berlin so what they're trying to do is actually because 4 of the doctors who are here now are going to pension and they want to keep some of the afghan or syrian doctors here so they are also discussing this at the moment because they are a need for doctors the town is now famous for its quest to find
3:37 pm
a new population but what do the refugees fleeing. here in finland filled with people full live here how did it treat you or sometimes it is so it. is so us. as the strangers you know. but in general if they are good you live in one of these apartments yeah i hear i live here. from 6 months here i have 5 verses in the house with me. and but it is a house it would be stained friedland if you would find a job here or do you know right now as well as if the small yeah it is small and i want to get my in my study of the city richer can probably only do in the bigger city alone but really on how mostly maybe the mere norse that's how most will react that's why his plan rests on just 10 percent of the refugees
3:38 pm
wanting to stay. most of the population in your role in 10 or 20 years will be population above 60 or 70 so in a way the coming of refugees to this style presents a possibility because younger people younger population and they think it can be applied on the european level as well maybe to say that they're refugees can be a fall for revitalisation of want. and what it shows is that the real change can be done on the municipal level and that maybe radical politics of the 20th century is not on the supreme national international level but on the local level. we've seen radical movements in big cities and a compassionate mayor in a small town. but to even begin to bring about change on the scale europe needs will require new and radical thinking in a major city. spain's 2nd largest
3:39 pm
city is not run by blacks alone or in common a radical quality of around mental and how's an activist. 2 years ago the pullout was attempting to stop people being evicted from their homes. the reality only got it emotionally was the fear that amanda understood one of the time but the 2nd i don't know but open going and going in must be part of the. many more than in the gotta go. after kitchell miller's immunization if he feels that there is laid this out here simply that secular cannot prepare the augusta. as they would. like it and i must enlist although it's by no. now when she speaks up for a family who have been a week that she does so as the mayor of parts alone what it you know it will feel much based on most of the hour but i'm probably that you know what my laughing
3:40 pm
getting this morning watching this is the worse it is the question was and what if you see and they don't worry about it if it were at one of the cinema the richest woman that is going to try to be in that order as they did to us they don't mean yours but can such radicals run a large and complex 21st century global city of nearly 2000000 residents. every year over 70 get your isp the cent and barcelona they spent over $13000000000.00. but their input is now so huge they've become one of the problems facing new politicians like that peter mares about the percent of. this is on it which is one of the most popular neighborhoods saw for barcelona. it used to be neighborhood the fisherman. well one of the problems we're having here is the prices of houses. have started to increase and many people are being forced to leave the neighborhood. here we used to have
3:41 pm
a squat house it's called community here called. which means thousands of houses for everyone. in this courthouse used to leave our actual mayor and some members of the government she was a supporter really yes here and now. that we are in the government of the of the city council we will have operatives here and that's what we're trying to foster in comparative how seeing new forms of tenancy and here and of us in on it what we've been doing is we've been forcing banks to negotiate with the city council to give us you know we're buildings empty buildings to. just to to have them for social rental. and that's very important i mean we don't depend on bonds because we haven't our campaign with banks and that's important because you're free
3:42 pm
from banks and that gives you a certain margin to negotiate with them you know well this is one of the 1st buildings we bought when we when it came to power and this is a building that we are rehabilitating now i mean it's not easy because we as a city council we don't have all the legislative power to do to the way everything we can to change the city from one today but we are also putting pressure on the on the regional government on the central government to change the laws and if we don't have pressure on the streets there are many changes that cannot be done you are seeing that you see because the. subject was both of these issues would like to see more versatile just we. will not only need pressure but we need to not the form subform. and i say sure we have to organize them and walker operatives they have to produce in a different way they have to conceal in a different way and we assume the ministration going to be an obstacle we have to
3:43 pm
told to go along with them but it's still a demonstration why go there with the democratic revolution. so is this what happens when the people take over the palace and barcelona town is a palace. i'm going to meet the merits laughs. do you think these model of ports alone up but also something which we could call the rebel cities it's not only barcelona it is now this is your naples that it was and so on i could be a model for europe as such in the sense that going from bottom up from the municipal from the local level we could come to a national level and even change your role on these transnational international level in a moment a case is then look at the got going arsalan espana is unable go back yes and canal . the lucky she's the immigrant here for
3:44 pm
a man is the unifying people as regards latin as in the market at the guy and i know i see on a lot if we're in the field then we're not going amico in. that i'm spot in thea and i may make it a. pretty but i don't get any more 2nd fender and as an undersea you have this case on this that lay men some idea that upper left here don't last you list gets none of the stuff you must have got and they're going to guess how much of what i want to put in the dollar is not going to this put them out and what they're saying about in the end there are many that are not into this gives effective i meant it would help i say that i feel that there's the last call you solicitor nasa get him or said or not only i only get it most there so but i thought when i mean i want to feel that i may not get an e-mail address this i mean us national madness in the last i said we'll put this all off. for them. so maybe it will be a network of cities like barcelona where people finally feel represented because the city is close enough to the people to be held accountable if powerful enough to
3:45 pm
make a difference to their lives. but on my journey i've seen how the financial forces colonizing europe have captured nation states and even the european union so maybe it's nice to suppose such movements can make a difference. or maybe they're judging. her she looked over history of the movement that have achieved something it consistently appeared to show in that they didn't achieve their goals right away and were beaten back but they left a rigid and a legacy from which leaned forward and nation travel because here so let's not dismiss those who are brave enough to be optimistic so what we have seen with the so-called arab spring is that it's not enough talk of bias where you have to be able to create a permanent organization even if it means new political parties but which wouldn't
3:46 pm
be where to go but which would in take integrate precisely the experience of the patients and be aware that all of europe but also the world is watching what is happening in place thanks. hello there fairly quiet picture across much of the middle east you see a few showers across turkey of the last few days there's a little bit of cloud on the satellite you can see it's beginning to push in really from the east and over the mediterranean and that will be bringing with it again the charles i want to show in fact more rain again around this coast of georgia system working its way across the black seeping of quite a bit of moisture 24 and i should actually mostly dry with that we've got a warm day in kabul at a high of 36 and 42 degrees celsius in a toronto and then as you head off into friday temperatures not moving very far but
3:47 pm
