the sky and the ashes pollute the river the rest of the world is beginning to realize it too. welcome to the stream politicians around the u.k. say they are facing constant online face to face as the atmosphere around proxy grows more toxic after the ok. as the u.k. prepares for a general election we'll look at the impact of intimidation on elected representatives and what it means for u.k. democracy join the conversation through twitter and you tube. members of the u.k. parliament say they are subject to daily abuse threats and intimidation from opponents and even some of their constituents as people are made at odds over the future direction of the country reports of abuse suffered by m.p.'s and other

elected officials particularly women have risen dramatically since the 2016 breck's at referendum a parliamentary report says the problem is now commonplace and undermines politicians afterwards to represent the people on wednesday culture secretary mickey morgan declared she will not seek reelection after suffering abuse aimed at her and her family a day earlier a liberal democrat m.p. heidi allen announced she will stand down and she is exhausted by the personal abuse she has suffered on mine and in the street from all of this we're joined from romsey hampshire by caroline oaks she is a conservative member of parliament. these is a labor party councilor for oxford city council she is also cold vice chair of the fabian women's network she joins us from manchester can lead better is ambassador at the jo cox foundation an organization working with communities to build a more tolerant society she is near the town of keaton in west yorkshire hello ladies good to have you i wish it was over
11:24 pm
a better conversation that we're about to have i have to show you or they steve i am sure in your various different work you have seen this jess phillips. as an m p she says here this is so chilling i'm not scared of an election i am scared i might be hurt or killed and just show you what jess describes herself as a labor m.p. for birmingham yardley and then just down here saudade unseemly and grotesque according to a little man on the internet that is alluding to some of the behavior that is happening on social around politicians came you happen to know that this isn't just online harassment for jess things that actually happened offline as well can you tell us a little bit more what do you know. yeah absolutely i mean you know to start with the only reason that i'm doing this this evening is because i know to my very day a personal cost where this level of abuse and intimidation can lead cox was the british politician who was murdered on the street in june 26th just prior
11:25 pm
to the referendum and joan was my sister and i live and i feel the pain of that day every single day of my life and there was a very brief period of time after joe was killed where people said a lot of the right things about how we had to do things differently and we should be more kinder and more compassionate in our politics and that lasted for a very short period of time within weeks of joe been killed things descended into the toxic kind of debate that we see now and it's definitely got worse in the 3 and a half years since that time so i know jess phillips i know i know lots of m.p.'s i've got to know lots of them some of who knew joe and some of whom didn't and the level of abuse and intimidation they are facing at the moment is unprecedented and very very worrying and it's very difficult and i'm aware that it's difficult for me to be objective and i am in danger of being accused of scamming growing but for these women in particular when there but men as well this is their reality and they are very very scared about their safety can we thank you for sharing reliving that
11:26 pm
for us on line that so many people say what it is that you're referencing you talked about a toxic debate getting worse people online say part of that is because the rise of social media and the fact that so much of that debate is happening online so i want to direct all of your attention to this article in the conversation the headline the people who abuse impedes online and one of the writers of that piece of video comment in it he talks about the kind of people that take to the web take to twitter to spew this abuse this is liam mclaughlin he's a researcher at the university of south and in manchester and here's what he says. so what do we know about people or b.m.p. is online firstly we know that they don't wake up in the morning and think they go to peace and peace what they do is quite reactionary in nature they'll see a tweak on their feet in response to that or the see something in the news or
11:27 pm
they'll see hausa constipate interest in a scene the most abuse comes in the form to reply to an m.p.'s tweet or it spikes massively whenever the press it's being beta house of commons. caroline i'll give balin to you because you told our producers ahead of the show that you have your notifications for your social accounts turned off why is that. so that was a friend of mine a colleague did that for me i was the immigration minister for 18 months and the level of abuse i was getting online well so horrific and i gave my phone to a friend in the house of commons and she just filled with about 3 minutes of her leg or notifications gone these people are not going to trouble you anymore and that is one strategy to deal with it simply turn off the notifications that look and i have some really brilliant dedicated staff who will always alert to me and more importantly the police to when there is a direct threat but i also have an amazing 21 year old daughter who sometimes
11:28 pm
she'll send me a text message in the dead of night that just says i love you mommy and in her world that is code for the father she knows i'm taking the lead with the use online and she just wants me to know that there are good people out there to my kind that there are people who say well this is on line say what you think you tell of unification you don't have to remove aids but this isn't just the peace and harassment that is happening online can you never see a little glimpse of your offline life as well you know so i think that's a really important point to make it's easier to ignore it when it's online and i take the view it's your expert said this is sad people alone in their bedrooms late at night to send online abuse and they're quite easy to ignore when somebody walks up to you in the marketplace or rumsey which is the beautiful market town in hampshire and says you're a traitor who deserves to be shot that enters the real world that leaves you feeling afraid and it's great to be with kim this evening because although i didn't
11:29 pm
know jo well i knew that jo cox was a kind person a person who whenever she reached out to me in the house of commons if i'd made a speech the. she thought was ok she i can remember her due to me she reached out to touch my whole staircase and separates the each and that was for somebody who i really didn't know to work and that sadly didn't have a chance to get up and you suddenly hear a gentleman that melted say to you in your own constituency the town you grew up in you deserve to be shot and you think it's 3 years since a colleague of mine was shot. what sort of level of political discourse do we now have that just because i might disagree with that man on bret's that he thinks i need to be killed late is that this this keeps occurring to me as i'm watching the sort of things that you're going for in your experience and what is going on in the u.k. that somebody would come up and sing that in the street. i think what's going on is
11:30 pm
that i respectfully cited spaces of misfortune the if we normalize it be normalized by people he ships who are all using very toxic racist language and this should be normal and. i honestly was lucky enough to ask him those i went to show for 5 years and she was one of the kindest most polite to sobriety and women other than about the pressure to her friends and you know what happened to her should have been the moment when people actually pulled back a start to thinking i'm doing better i'm not. and if we just look at you know the united states of america when you've got a man who is being very present and who has the type of access to such the document to towards women and also he would u.k. as a physical with the woman the fact that my prime minister that amount of good luck to be the prime minister u.k.
11:31 pm
by all to be the fifty's a talk of language fiji's with minority women is just not acceptable and i think if you take a cue from that but i also think the point that you make our lungs up the tree when you've got people i did god to keep old. routing hate. it they just be it made people are living it may just be like what actually does homophile an alibi doesn't get women and it builds from that and i think often we're told to shut sheets off and to kind of just get on with it well i'm sorry which is not i think a lot more not nice to be dug out of people who are going out of their way to spread hate but edition from ations and they ought to be talking women are specifically to targeting minority women i met during the. one of the well i would also want to also add to the idea in terms of of politicians and what politicians can do to improve things you know what shall i say and how answered. about joe is really heartwarming to hear and they're absolutely right you couldn't meet
11:32 pm
a kind of person that doesn't mean that joe was afraid of little passionate debates and would certainly let you know what her opinions were on things but she always did it in a polite and respectful manner and i think this is where politicians have to step up and understand that they also have a very important role to play in terms of how they behave and how they speak to each other and it's fair to say in the past few weeks we've seen some pretty poor behavior from some politicians and again for me this is across the political spectrum and it's across the bridge that divide so i think it's really important to not just look at people who are who are giving a politician time that is also equally wrong but politicians have to think about their role in this as indeed do the media and journalists and all the people in how they report things because i think the only way things will change is if we take this holistic approach and we all think about our responsibility because i understand the anger and frustration that people feel i am extremely angry about what's happened to my family but i am not giving into the anger i am channeling the
11:33 pm
anger and doing something positive to create a positive legacy for joe in terms of bringing people together we all have to change if anything will change carolyn i want to direct something at you because i'm so glad that just made the point she made because there are people in our audience making that it exact point right now so this is dave and i'd like to get your thoughts on a few people's thoughts that run along the same line dave says while it is totally unacceptable it's because the m.p.'s are ignoring people's wishes and breaking promises another person on twitter barry reed says citizens have suffered at the hands of egos of politicians for hundreds of years well paid and inept why wouldn't the population finally be tired and angry at the status quo and one more i'll share from you tube someone watching live over there writes in to say that he believes this there's cause for this because are we not allowed to be angry with m.p.'s. it's room over on you tube what would you say to people with that perspective so i
11:34 pm
think it's perfectly legitimate to be angry i think it's perfectly ok to have we're past discussions and debates about what has gone wrong with bret's it why you haven't managed to deliver it after all of these years but i think we have to make our political discourse of a much higher caliber i think we have to play the role not a man or woman and i think we have to make sure that we are careful about the language we use that's critically important that people have heard me in the house of commons calling out colleagues that have used careless language that have nor thought about the impact of the words they using and what might seem ok to say traitor in one breath to pretend that people have somehow betrayed the population actually the 650 members of parliament in the house of commons each one of whom is trying their best to do the best for their own constituents of course we don't look great you know that's the beauty of democracy they have to agree but i think it's
11:35 pm
really wrong to say that we're deliberately trying to frustrate the will of the people with in x. actually some of the people that you will meet in the house of commons in the most brilliant intelligent caring hardworking individuals and to try and portray all of us told us all with one brush is just very wrong and i think them came you mention the media earlier and they meet a lot of these cues are being taken from the extreme language should be new but i think to lead so when you splash the word traitor across the front page of a leading newspaper well of course of course people are going to knock that language a bigot perfectly that the book and you know that the 2 tweet that you just read out are find it interesting that 2 men are giving those yes i'm sure women are common thing as well but i think it's very relevant because anger is traditionally a thing of the masculine trait now more than women are and you just knew going in there but i think for a lot of men that i'm a book too. expressed views without showing anger now it's completely legitimate to
11:36 pm
be angry it's not legitimate to be racist homophobic it's origin is the issue does it to tell women m.p.'s online that you're going to go that level that's no i'm going that is criminal and that goes way beyond anger and i think we need to be really clear about how we talk about we should not refrain and also just want to add one point that which is i get out of the doors that are knock on doors on a regular basis i've been subject to a lot of very angry people and 9 times out of hand they are men and they say things that i think they would never say to anyone. in their own lives they've actually pulled back and it's not part of our love the conversation going from being very very unusual very language a very charged them call back and they calm down but part of the reason that is because all i am off the big arm with and i'm also willing to hold a dialogue with them and i have very uncomfortable conversations with them but it's a 2 way street because if we just shut everyone down when there and we get to. our
11:37 pm
leaders then we give our audience some indication you are polite courteous civilized people so you're not using the language that is being used against you but his undernet son back and she is an m.p. she is lamenting at how many women now are standing down from their m p role and she shared a little while ago an e-mail message from one of her constituents she brought out some of the offending words all of them what is the point in having a 2nd referendum you stupid and you remain m.p.'s kind of on of the 1st one it's good you've no confidence vote women shouldn't be in politics it goes on and on and on that is just one example of the how receiving feedback that you are getting from your constituents if you are an m.p. let me introduce your audience to joe swinson she is the new leader of the liberal democrats and she's not saying it's the media's you are shyster she is actually
11:38 pm
saying it's m.p.'s it's politicians to blame as well let's have a listen. i fear that the public watching today will perhaps take the view that this host does not take sufficiently seriously threats of violence we have had the attorney general are here today joke about wife beating and i may our god today have reported to the police a threat against my own child that has been dismissed as somebody mr speaker this is a disgraceful state of affairs and we must be able to find a way to conduct ourselves questioning. him the caucus foundation is helping people have better dialogue even if we disagree we can still talk to each other what has happened to m.p.'s where they don't seem to be at the top to each other and i think probably like the rest of us they are frustrated and they are angry and it was been
11:39 pm
quite a bit frustrating situation to be having to be so obsessed with one issue when you want to be focusing on things that the country cares about but yeah i mean what we do think through just foundation we try to bring people to together we do a national annual campaign in the u.k. called the great get together and we encourage people to come together in communities up and down the country on what would have been joe's birthday and we did that in june and it's a very important weekend and actually what it shows is that most people do want an opportunity to find some common ground and to reunite with people in their local areas but what i would say in terms of in terms of what joe spencer was saying there i mean to be fair to her she was pointing out the problem with empowerment she wasn't just blaming politicians yeah and i think again until we start taking this holistic approach nothing will change so politicians need to look at the way that they're speaking to each other absolutely and but again as do the rest of us and the media again pick you know how much i said what i found in my very short period of time doing media stuff which i'm still not understand good at or anything
11:40 pm
like that but is is they do they do want extreme opinions so often you know i try and take a view where i try and see all sides of the argument. so certainly you end up in this sort of big space in the middle and that's not exciting for the journalists is that they want people who are on the extreme ends of it so i think i would encourage the media to start thinking about how they can take a more balanced view of things you know and getting people on who might not be saying things that are going to make headlines so that that's what i was saying to them in terms of the media's role i want to play a video comment from someone who's also part of this conversation a different way she is part of an organization that addresses online harassment and she sent us this comment have a listen. the women of color in politics are to support me impacted by online abuse and harassment and a study by amnesty international and element a i last year found that female politicians and journalists in the study who were black were 84 percent more likely to be mentioned in abusive tweets and white women
11:41 pm
and asian women were most likely to be mentioned in tweets that contained racial ethnic or religious slurs and the result of all of this is that online abuse arose our democracy by silencing and censoring the most marginalized voices in society it means that women and women of color in particular are just unable to freely and eastley express themselves online without fear of violence or abuse so i found about one to you because as a woman of color you already mentioned islam and so b a how do you think those issues affect you differently than they might other polys of yours. well they affect me deeply and personally. other women of color to keep black women are very clear about that and. then to the levels of hate we always know that when you look at the minute tool side of the shuttle. and so it. is a reflection the high. in the life well it's kind of
11:42 pm
a mirror you know it's like it's. real life and i think people just become a culture that they can do a lot because they could be anonymous so if you are visible minorities like me for example of our nation i find that people think it's ok to like email me to my face i mean i could be talking about how to respond and i would be ciancia and again usually fined by many because. i be talking about should be a little bit less g.m. the she talked about was because women while i've been talking about housing so whatever i do think they will try about muslim women. just as jewish women i explained in the same thing as well and it's deliberately got me stumped by the thought if done to minimize that and not to make us actually just want to pack up and walk away and when i'm going to do that because we get on ship you and to this country up while these people are busy trying to pull the country down. and you
11:43 pm
know i think that was really obvious from the tweet that antoinette was illegal and . said women can't think under pressure you have and that is absolutely a tactic to try and shut women not just up and go away to the woman you're not clever enough to think when things were bit difficult do you really do have to spare the sort of person that thinks that's ok to to hold those attitudes to a confetti those attitudes publicly but i sure doesn't alter the media culture and the political culture in mabel's those people because that's the messaging that they're getting from mainstream media and from many of our mainstream politicians so you know it all leads into each other is a beast that's beating beating is now completely and this is why it's they're dangerous but there's a lot of hope out there just one very clearly and while i think women are starting to show solidarity towards each other going networks of women that are coming together you know they do behind the scenes work they're doing that work on this as
11:44 pm
well and so what i'd say to any woman in the kids watching this if you like to do this go and do it don't let anyone but you will if you don't do those things last 20 minutes we've scared anybody else who wants to remain involved in politics that is the ultimate this is that's the ultimate and i love it let me just move on just for a moment is something that caroline you shared on the on twitter this is from thicky ford m.p. and she talks about a special bond that holds went together in politics i think we are witnessing that right now on this show is so great to share a whole bunch of women who look who is in this picture excuse me who i just show you or caroline's backache as she's talking to ease of is in here. not so when using that it's all a diety holding together even though women are saying i am stepping down this is too much for me powerline what would be your advice how do you keep politicians safe in this very toxic atmosphere what's the way forward from your perspective so
11:45 pm
i just want to say one thing about that photo that was taken last night there were a bunch of tory women some of whom were studying down some of them staying on there were a lot of tears last night because we we feel very strongly that they're all good current lovely people even qualified to see some who were only elected in 2015 people at sea in the kennedy davis and it is heartbreaking if you morgan who came in at the same time as me. saying that they've had enough they don't want to do more so i think. we have to change the tone of our politics we aren't going to achieve that unless we get more women into politics and i of arrived in parliament in 2010 and i had never experienced such me in my life i was the youngest daughter to a man who had daughters i had had a charmed life and i saw the thought of lived in a always prep school currently in the middle to 30 less than it's going you're closing thought for us with the water. some of the artistic together i've had some

11:58 pm
washington d.c. can be found the day after that impeachment vote surprisingly we've also been hearing from the president who has been busy tweeting what's he been saying and talk us through what happens now. yet in terms of the time little start with that we expect that there will be a continuation of the impeachment inquiry the form of hearings now more public as you point out as a result of the thursday vote and that will continue for about another month or so then it will be up to the house speaker nancy pelosi to schedule an impeachment vote and we expect that that could come sometime before the middle of december possibly into the 3rd week of december so that's the timeline it's tight and that's why you see the u.s. president taking to social media as he often does in the mornings on twitter making the case that he has done nothing wrong that there was nothing nefarious about that july 25th phone call between himself and the ukrainian president denying that he
11:59 pm
had any suggestion of withholding military aid in order to have an investigation conducted in ukraine against one of his political rivals so the u.s. president saying that he is a victim of an unfair process appealing to the public in one of his tweets saying the public is watching and see for themselves how unfair this process is he's pointed a finger at the democrats who are conducting this investigation accusing them of trying to take down the republican party and targeting the man who is chairing all of this adam schiff chair of the house intelligence committee saying that he is on a power trip there is also another aspect to the president's. that we see emerging from this white house and that is the economic argument targeting the american public that may be concerned about a change of economic policy larry kudlow the economic advisor to the president speaking in the white house driveway in just the last few hours saying in fact that this is not only an unfair process but that investors don't want to see a change in economic policy in other words if you like the stock market you better
