a purely technocratic government won't function because everything is like 2 political parties governments and liberal on have always been a reflection of the parliaments composition the biggest block belongs to president michel ouds free patriotic movement and along with its allies hezbollah among. majority in parliament and government but that government collapsed last week when prime minister. resigned he says he bowed to pressure from the street but his action also damaged the governing alliance in particular the iranian backed hezbollah which benefited from had ties with the west. on the u.s. sanctions and they are becoming tougher it's beautiful live in all of his outside power so we avoid the repercussions but if the majority of employees support their presence then hariri will decide if he wants to hit that kind of government politicians are holding closed door discussions over

a government that many protesters feel they are pushing their own political agenda and they also feel opposition parties are trying to hijack their movement using the street in the talks to try and change the balance of power that is not why protesters took to the streets. there are some political parties like the progress of socialist party and the lebanese forces that use their supporters to block roads in order to impose their agendas and put political pressure to gain seats in the new government by blackmailing their partners in power politicians from across the divide all claim to support the demands of the people but many protesters say their voices are being ignored and they are demanding the entire political class leave office. a facebook has revealed more details on how it plans to protect next year's us election from foreign interference and this information measures include securing the accounts of elected officials and making

the ownership of political pages more obvious the company's been criticised for not doing enough to remove misleading political posts well james warren is the executive editor of news guardian organization that writes credibility of news and information websites it was the bureau. for the chicago tribune and joins us now via skype from chicago thanks very much for being with us so what do you make of these new measures by facebook will they do enough to to combat the the misinformation that regularly goes out on facebook particularly political misinformation well it's fascinating news but the devil will be in the details we don't know whether this is bent on changing our sea or just bleats we need financial incentives for a sport in basically make any its current policy which is a sort of hands are when it comes to. war and disallowing any political ads are

gigantic billions of dollars at this point in this country next year on a local and 2028 campaign not just presidential but the entire u.s. congress and thousands of local races that money has them obsolete go to broadcast t.v. and radio now mostly goes to social media most of them want more except where the clients. facebook does and in the last study 18 months the estimate is that they've made of our $100.00 but $890000000.00 so if you're they'll make a couple times more of that next year are they willing to turn their back on a lot of those there aren't and there it's absolutely fascinating story in this country fascinating 1st amendment priest speech issue. and they all involve a company which didn't really even exist a short time ago and now finds itself under intense scrutiny nationwide involving a manner in which go to the heart of a democracy whether facebook c.e.o.

mark zuckerberg certainly sees this as as a free speech issue he says that the amount of money that facebook makes from these political ads is a small part of their business so that's not the real reason that they're. that they're not backing down on this if you will and the as far as they're concerned that this is part of a legitimate political discourse what what do you say to that argument. well the question the question really involves a relatively new practice which one is able to do on social media micro targeting once upon a time when one place a man in a campaign even went so far as things about one's opponent everybody in the community knew about it once saw the ad it was on the baseball game was on a comedy now micro-targeting as the russians found him exploiting facebook one can send ads out scurrilous libelous slanderous ads to very narrow slice of the

community and a candidate might not even know that among a certain group of people. ads of the dispatch are having real negative impacts so the size of facebook i think in part is once it got into trouble the ability to essentially very covertly target voters is also at the heart of this and critics would see facebook as basically hiding behind a free speech argument unlike a lot of folks in silicon valley in the u.s. part of the tech industry sort of busy in a sort of techno utopia where anybody can say whatever they want well as we found out in the 2060 campaign even if inadvertently facebook was manipulated you know russian agents and had some role in the trump campaigns going korea that some role in the clinton hillary clinton. the feed well i want to ask you about that how much

of a role did they have really is there is there any way to to to measure that because there were there are those who are say that. you know people are people are smarter than you think and that they're they're able to filter out what's what what's true and what isn't and that that that the influence of these of these groups on facebook is overstated what do you say to that. well one can't necessarily in sharing please say how many votes in a particular election were earned by any form of that would. have to have. holing exit interviews and really get that are that what motivates people generally speaking of the i think the consensus is that the impact of social media now works that traditional media when you've got an audience to feel more of an elitist facebook that's the absolutes now. the consumption of many people the

length of which they spend on facebook is found to have some impacts both good and bad and the current events and the report went into this that some great talent came to the russians the current evidence strongly suggests that they had a substantial negative impact on the 2060 campaign. unless you are a trump supporter but i still if you are on the clinton side and they could have an impact and raise the possibility that even with a lot of precautions that facebook isn't tempted to implement sense that campaign could have a similar significant impact next year we're not just talking on about a presidential campaign we climb up thousands of races around this country small communities major cities in which people are going to be running and could be in some ways grotesquely undermined by thought so it's spread on social media by their

own. that's where the challenge to let the market see as can some real 40 questions about free speech you have a fascinating discussion we're going to have to leave it there james warren thanks very much for being with us. police in france have dismantled a makeshift camp in paris how to thousands of migrants and refugees it happened just one day after the french government announced tighter immigration policies it's the latest in a series of camp closures throughout the capital with more still to come the tasha butler reports from powers hundreds of migrants and asylum seekers sheltered from the cold and rain as french police evacuated a camp in northern paris before dawn among them families with young children for months nearly 2000 people had been living in desperate conditions in flimsy tents wedged between roads with no sanitation most were from sudan somalia or afghanistan

it's a really bad condition for immigration here it's not good environment it's very cold and over there is to call. also every time a strain i mean there's a ground this really is not for good for like in recent years police of evacuated a number of similar camps in the city the mayor of paris said the situation was inhumane and she urged the french government to do more to help check phone this and so we'll put you through each time we're told it won't happen again if we don't want this to happen again we need a proper system that recognizes people's rights and gives them a dignified reception a country should be capable of this as daylight broke people carried their possessions and boarded buses french authorities said they'd be taken to shelters in the paris region to assess whether they have the right to apply for asylum. as

workers began cleaning up police said officers would remain on scientists to prevent future camps in the area or the road here remains closed but most of the tents have been cleared away the cleanup operation is continuing but what is happening is that there are some migrants who are coming back they perhaps live somewhere else last night and they're finding that all their possessions and gone and. i don't know what to do this somali man didn't want to be identified but he told me that he had lost all his belongings he said it was the 3rd time he'd been evacuated from a camp in paris an experience that campaigners say is all too common for we don't know yet what solutions are proposed besides temporary housing in a sports hall we have to think about the long term and not only about today that's what's important some people are leaving today but what will happen in 2 weeks in a year can those people stay in this housing and not go back to living on the streets the cam clearance comes one day after the french government announced new measures to tighten its immigration policy assigned for some that the government serious about cracking down but activists say the evacuation is little more than

the discussion also to the agenda 2030 the un goals in sustainable development which are accepted by everyone so i think that there are ways in which it is possible of course to present a discussion because not that there is not only one way to be a good government changed but the fact that resenting what the issue is and what the consequences are really are of climate change i think that this is beyond in doubt. thank. you this is educate us going to round up now of the top stories iraqi security forces are shot dead at least 7 protesters in basra several more were killed in baghdad that's the spot a government promised to stop using live ammunition homage june has more from baghdad it seems as though the demonstrators all the cities across iraq basically no matter the violence or the threat of war and when they made space they
