of value symbolized by the door of number 10 must be restored. members opposite miss. finally to that bit, they must tell the current inhabitant their leader. this has gone on too long. the game is off. you cannot be a little maker and a door breaker. on it, it's time to pack his bags. only then can the government function again, only then can the rocks be carved out only then can we restore the dignity of that great office and the democracy that it represents? yes, i stuck, missus speaker the right honorable gentleman talks about i what went on in a number 10 downing street in the, the events of behind that, that black to and the number of the events and, and, and i will, i will say to him, is it he thought the pandemic was not

a leading many thousands of people in the fight against a kind of ours. and he was sniping from the sidelines. i'm hearing from one position to the man and and today, mrs. speaker, he's, he's done it again week up to we he, we talked to we, he could have come to this house and talked about the economy about a you train about the cost of living now mrs. bigger, i time off the time he chose to focus on this issue. he could have her eager to read. he could have shown, so some common sense missile speaker and recognized that when people are working very hard together day in day out, that it can be difficult to draw the boundary mrs. beka between work and socializing. and yet after months of his frankly sanctimonious of

mister speaker, the great gaseous zeppelin of his publicity has been permanently punctured. and irretrievably by the revelation that he is himself, he didn't mention it is himself under investigation, by hopefully by the police mister speaker. and yet, and i'm not going to miss my words. i've got to say this should be a coma. missus. t is currently failing to hold himself to the same high standards that he demanded of me. it's true. he called for me to resign. mister speaker, when the, when the investigation began, why, why is he in his place? this whole the 2nd time please help me to help you because i'm sure you won't see the rest of my minister. i. mrs. pittman has bigger business because he should,

he should at least be he should at least be consistent and held himself at the same time and he still wear and so is the shadow deputy leader. and it's a figure i apologize when the revelations emerged. i continue to apologize. i repeat that, i am humbled by what has happened and he is instituted for fine changes throughout number 10 a. but i think in view of the mess that he has found himself in him, so he would, it would not be a sensible thing for him to, to apologize for that so that we can all collectively move on to mrs. be can that i think is what the people at this country want to see above all. they want to see leadership from his house of commons, the leadership for both parties, mrs. vega in dealing with their priorities. and that is why we are focus on getting through the off the shops of coverage. that's why i'm proud of what we did a to roll out the fastest vaccine campaign in europe. and that's why i'm proud that

we now have the lowest unemployment anywhere in this country for 50 in mrs. beaca. that is what the people, this country, what i appreciate, that he has his points to make. but i think overwhelmingly the will of this country is for us now to say thank you to say thank you to sue gray and for us collectively to move with you mr. speaker: my right on will friend well knows the rules apply to him as much to all of us on the rules of this house are clear that anybody who comes here to liberty lives and misleads this house should leave that position, resign or apologize. my right on my friend has been asked many times by specific incident, specific events that sue gray has. i've klein, he has the on any occasion, come to this house in response to specific questions about specific events and

deliberately like to us. a speaker to the reason for the reason i have given a good time that i spoke to this house. i believe that while i was, was doing was, was to attend work events and with the exception of the event in the, in the cabinet room. that is a, a view that has been vindicated by the investigation for doug. come to live the survey in blackfoot. i thank you, mrs. because as i speak, the public is pointing over the sordid details of white, torn out of the public eye behind the high gates and the walls of the prime minister's residence and the reporters damage. it concludes many gatherings, and many individuals did not touch here to coven guidance events. what attended by leaders and government and should not have been allowed to happen. junior civil servants believed that involvement was permitted by the attendance of senior

leaders. that was an unacceptable lack of respect and poor treatment of security and cleaning stuff. and crucially with us because the senior leadership at the center, both political unofficial, must bear responsibility for this culture. that leadership came from the top and the prime minister and the wards of the report must bear responsibility for the culture. a fish ross from the hair misspeak of the prime ministers dispatch box denial of a party taking place on the 13th of november is no proven to be untrue. he was there on the 13th of november, photographed raising a toast, surrounded by gin, wine and other revelers. the charge of misleading parliament as a resignation matter,

while the prime minister no finally resign. yes, prime minister has adopted a systematic, concerted, and sinister pattern of vision, truthfulness, honesty, and transpired as he did not enter his vocabulary. it is just not part of his way of being. and it speaks for the type of man that he is credibility. truth, morality, all matter. and the prime minister has been found lacking time and time again. he can shake his head, but that's the reality. prime minister ethics have to be part of our public life. an ethical behavior has to be at the core of the demeanor. and the response of any fight minister, the prime minister, bring shame on the office and has displayed tag not only to the members of this house, looked to every single person who forward the rules. they stayed away from family,

those homeless funerals, those who lost someone they loved. so when the tory members opposite, retired to the 1920 to commit to this evening. i hope people bear in mind. the now infamous government advent, featuring up desperately ill cove. it patient itself look into her eyes and tell her, you never bend the rules. if they don't submit a letter, if they don't remove this prime minister, how will they ever, ever look now, constituents in the i ever again this is because i think that the i right on the gentleman should look closely at her as to grace report and i repeat my things to her and i stress the nature and makes my involvement in the,

in these events is very clear from what she says. and i take full responsibility of what happened. and i'm, and that is why we've taken the steps that we have to reinforce and improve the way of attend works where we are, we are humbled by what has happened and we have changed h above you, miss speaker. since i've been elected to this house, i've been running a campaign listening to was rushed and, and you may recall on one occasion, if you just joining us on ology here, we've been watching a live session from the house of commons fair in the u. k. were prime minister boys, johnson has been making a statement in parliament after senior british civil 7. so gray issued her long awaited report into the so called party gates candle. the report which has looked hinder, accusations that government ministers and staff held a number of parties in downing street the official residence of the british prime

minister at the height of the current of eyes locked down. the british prime minister saying that he takes full responsibility for everything that took place on his watch, but has called for everyone to move on from this that spring in john a hole who's outside the house, the parliament in london. so join to talk to us about what is in the report and what the prime minister has said today, as well as the reaction from the opposition. and while a lengthy statement from boris johnson, the following prime minister questions the report, the great report released about an hour hour and a half before he spoke that he said, i am humbled by the findings of the su gray reports to grad senior civil servants. they report that he initiated for his jobs and i have learned lessons from the report and i hope we will be able to move on. and as you mentioned, day said,

i take full responsibility for everything that took place on my watch that goes on to set what he says he context not mitigation. but really, these mitigation the context of a downing street operation, which is enormous, which involves thousands of employees, including civil servants who were working tirelessly throughout the pandemic work and the national policy at a time of great peril in this country who had an exemption to be at work because they reported the prime minister, he believed it was his duty as a leader to be able to thank them and recognise their work on occasion by popping in for a drink off the work. and then he says, what happened after that turned into a break to the room. sometimes these occasions went on far too long, but he was not aware of that because he simply was not there. and so he correct the record in parliament. he says, when he told parliament previously no rules had been broken. yes, the police about to tell you that rules were broken, su, great, has ascertain that rules were broken, but far, as johnson said, when i said that before it was,

i believe to be true at the time. and he goes on the set that all the changes and reforms to the downing street operation that he has put in place so far as evidence of the lessons that he has led us on the opposition leader spoke afterwards. mister sama, of course, to a degree in this if you compromise, because he is also being investigated by the police for an event. he attended a campaign event at a constituency where he's pictured with a beer bottle in hand. he insist that was part of a work event, but striking a very, very different nose, pointing out the forest. johnson is the 1st 5 minutes that ever to be found to have committed an offense while in office. he says the, the grey report will go down as a monument to the hubris and the arrogance of a government that believe there was one rule for it. and one roof everyone else. he says he and he reiterated it in parliament, will set out if the police find that he broke rules,

they should be able the public to expect nothing less of the prime minister himself . will he resigned? will it be the end of forest johnson? it seems unlikely that the su gray report in and of itself will do that. but we wait now in the days to come the reaction of conservative party mt to see what they will do. they will decide to launch a leadership academy and get to the prime minister. and indeed, there is a harlem entry investigation depending as well. right. he's not going to resign for the time being defense there from what he's been saying, but how damaging is older for boris? johnson john the, you know, the thing is that he's been coming for months now. the 1st revelations about a party and down the street happened at the end of november last year. there was an apology by bar johnson in parliament in december, and then the sioux report was initiated. she came up with initial findings at the end of january. it was then it was that interrupted by

a police investigation. you've had months now the public of that month, the drip drip leaks of information. i've seen fines issued by johnson. i'm the treasury secretary richard tonight, 6 months of this happened now and they're in the midst of a cost of living crisis. i think the gambling down the street now the hope will be that the public has other issues to think about. and there's already a big initiative on thursday on the table to announce an enormous government event on the cost of living crisis. as i said, the crucial constituent, tory party and piece, do they decide to count of letters of no confidence in the prime minister to try and trigger a leadership contest that is possible for the course survivor leadership compet. the arguably most important issue is this parliamentary investigation is whether he lied to parliament when he said there were no parties, no rules were broken. we heard the same thing the couch that now by saying he didn't think rules will bring, but at the time is evidence in the 2 great report,

photographs of him lifting a glass of wine a lot in toasts, department colleagues, do prove or seem to prove by apartment re committee that he lights, a part of that is an offense that there is a general consensus should or could result in the resignation of the product. jonah, thank you very much for that update. i'll just there is john hall live outside the house of parliament in london that it is coming up to 1215 gmc. let's take a look at some of the days of a news now on al jazeera and there's anguish, an outrage across the us. after was described as a heinous re horrific and income prehensile school shooting. 19 primary school children in 2 teachers have been shot dead in the time of val day in texas, the attacker early a shot his grandmother. he was killed by police rob reynolds reports. ah, a shocking act of violence as ripped yet another american town into pieces. an 18

year old gunman stormed in elementary school in vol day, texas tuesday afternoon, and opened fire. as the news spread, frantic parents waited to find out if their children were safe on and nobody's telling me anything. always telling me, telling me anything. and one of the parents are saying that there's kids possibly held at the funeral home. and that's what brought me over here to find out what's going on. the unthinkable details began to emerge. salvador romeus, an 18 year old male who resided in you've audi. it's believed that he abandoned his vehicle and entered into the rob elementary school in new valley with, with a hand gun. and he may have also had a rifle. as of now, no motive is known for the mass shooting. the 600 children who attended the primary school were aged from 5 or 6 to about 12 years old. at this point investigation and

leading to tell us that the suspect did act alone during this heinous crime. the killings come less than 10 days after a gunman who posted racist rance online killed 10 people at a grocery store in buffalo. new york gun laws in texas are among the least restrictive in the country. there's no minimum age limit for children to possess. fire arms in texas, the u. s. average is about 10 mass shootings per week. nearly $200.00 mass shootings have happened so far this year. that includes $27.00 school shootings. these kids weren't unlucky. this only happens in this country. nowhere else. nowhere else to little kids go to school thinking that they might be shot that day. the murders of the school children in new vall day brought this response

from presidential by. when in god's name we're going to stand up to the gun lobby. when in god's name, we do, we all know our gut needs to be done. despite polls that show a majority of americans favor tougher gun laws. the efforts to pass national gun legislation have been blocked. time and time again by republicans and a few democrats in congress. this confuse in worried and i'm trying to find out where my babies in with an estimated 390000000 guns owned by civilians in the us. and few effective limits on gun ownership. the horror in new vol day will likely be repeated again and again. rob reynolds al jazeera fairly. we spoke to lonnie and sandy phillips, who are the founders of survivors empowered. it's an organization. they sounded

after their daughter jessica guy. we was married in the aurora, colorado theater shooting 10 years ago. they say the solution is clear, is simple, easy access to grounds in america is causing the problem. we have the same number of really trouble people or people that have mental problems as any other patrick, the difference is they can't get guns like they can hear. you know, want you cut to supply, gosh, it becomes harder again. all the shooters lately, the masters have been able to walk in and legally by and they are 15. it is wrong for an 18 year old. be able to go in and buy an a r 15. well, i refuse to accept that it's always going to be this way. this we are turning around and going back to san antonio. this will be our 20th response to

a public mass shooting since our daughter was killed 10 years ago in 10 years, nothing has been done at the national level. and until we are doing something at the national level, it won't matter what the states are doing because what happens is the, the states with strong gun laws like here in new york. they are surrounded by some very weak gun law, states like pennsylvania in ohio. so those guns are trafficked across lines, state lines. so we have a problem with trafficking guns, traffic in accessories. we have a problem with ghost guns, and we need to close all of that down. and we need to go back to banning assault weapons. quite frankly, that needs to happen again. and i think the president actually called for that tonight, or at least suggested that tonight. but we,

i won't give up hope. ah, ukraine's president says rush, i was trying to destroy everything in the eastern dumbass region, louise lens, he's urging the wife to keep up a regular supply of heavy weapons to keep rushes. defense minister says there is no deadline for the fighting and it will continue until its goals are achieved. that is not done by this is lhasa. the situation and dumbasses extremely difficult out of all russian mind, is now concentrated on this region. nicole layman, pozner civ, road on yet school vianza. the occupiers want to destroy everything there, but in their communication and to sit sweetly here that they realize that this war has no sense for them. that strategically their army has no chance of victory. yet it requires time and a lot of unprecedented effort from our people to overcome their advantage in the amount of military equipment and armaments settled with. so now kearney,

an official say the russian offensive in the east is now in its most in 10 stage. as i beg, is in premier tours in an area which has seen heavy shelly and as strikes. this is the site of the struggling total of the authorities here at 2 o'clock this morning . and just to give you an idea that this is an empty billable hitter on tray in the morning, we felt the shock waves at a hotel. you were welcome. why hold tell shaking from that kind of explosion. if percent heads 100 meters to the left or to the rights, then it would have hit the residential buildings have. but the shock wave, if i can just show you to every single window, i'm even speaking to the residence. and some of them said that the rebel, it's building was feel cross into the apartment, the one i live in, grandchildren, he sent them to work on the country. but had they been a massive concrete bold that had landed on his grandchild. and he was in tears.

many people have already left recently because of the fighting. the russians are about 25 kilometers away, but the city is william range of their rockets and they can even hit it with artillery. and that's the fear that no place in eastern ukraine is safe. this is the scene of the cross hasn't been, they didn't think it's in the don bus region. in fact, in the next 2 regions are the, one of the regions have been done by the government. they have been 12, people killed the last 24 hours. and the gun rooms are hand squeezed and says that this is one of the most difficult times that they are facing in the ages of this conflict with russian back separatists. elsewhere in the postage a marable, they've discovered $200.00 bodies under the rubble of an apartment building. that's one of the largest number, highest number of discovery since the start of this war. but like i said in the east of the country, the russians seem to make it seem to me making them wanted on several axis,

putting many talents. it gets rather reach of the artillery and rockets. but this was an air strike. and that just shows that the russians are able to strike any taste. and at any time, turkeys, foreign minister says a normalization of ties between anchor and israel will, how bring a solution to these really palestinian conflict melted cash hulu is in west truth. and as the 2 countries were to mend strained, relations is the 1st senior turkish official to visit in more than 15 years casual lou has promised to continue support for palestinians while meeting present mahmoud abbas on tuesday. iran con is in west truth, lemon says the meeting focus more on economic cooperation while relations have been at an all time low diplomatic relations between israel and turkey have actually been non existent for 15 years or so. what this is very significant for both of those 2 countries, but if you take the press conference at face value, it felt like 2 business leaders talking rather than 2 foreign ministers. there was

a heavy emphasis on the idea, the business relations people who pl relations. we're going to push that really the, the relations further with israel and with turkey. so it didn't really feel like it was a political press conference. indeed, you just heard there the turkish foreign minister reference the israeli palestinian conflict. that was the only time it was mentioned, the israeli f. m. didn't talk about it at all. so what does this mean for these really palestinian relationship? will the turks are saying that their approach on with israel won't, will not come at the expense of the palestinians that the, that you still maintain their relationship with the palaces. and indeed the turkish i've met with abbas and the foreign minister in ramallah yesterday. so he said that was a fruitful meeting, but this was, but like i say, really focused on business and really focused on a relationship. perhaps those are things that they could agree on. we were expecting the ambassadors to each country to be announced,

those reinstatement of the ambassadors that didn't happen, although i do understand that it was talked about. but ultimately i think it was the visual of those 2 people. those 2 countries standing side by side after 15 years that both countries wanted to pot. alba has been new evidence to support witness accounts of how al jazeera journalist sharina barkley was shot dead according to a c in an investigation she was killed in a targeted attack by israeli forces. the report says there was no active combat or any palestinian fight as near black as location. the u. s. b. c. s. channel com through 11 videos of the in showing israel's military convoy from different angles before during and after she was shot. 8 witnesses, an audio and an explosive weapons exploited expert backed up the findings. a members of the un security council, a calling for an independent investigation into serene step. it's been meeting to discuss threats to global media, freedom and the protection of journalists,

christians, salome reports. what kinds of israel's killing of al jazeera, serene ob lockley in the occupied west bank, prompted ireland to called this meeting on the protection of journalists at the time of her killing. sharyn was on duty in a blue press, vest, a symbol which denotes civilian status, a symbol that demonstrates to parties to conflict, that journalists are not a target. the targeting of journalists in conflict zones is considered a war crime. the committee to protect journalists said no less than 18 have been killed in the palestinian territories in the last 20 years. in ukraine, 9 journalists have died in the war with russia. but as the experts made clear, 9 out of 10 such crimes are never prosecuted. the failure of states to investigate, prosecute and punish crimes against john. this is not only a denial of justice,

it is actually an encouragement to perpetuate the cycle of violence. al jazeera is abdur rahim for kara, promised to pursue all legal options for accountability. as a 0 position is crystal clear. shitty and r block las life matters. and so does a transparent an independent investigation of her killing and of the serious violation of her funeral by these rated security forces. there are other crystal clear issues for i'm 0 network. one shea dina brocklow was killed by an israeli bullet and in cold blood while she was doing her job to the network has the evidence and the witnesses to support that position of nothing yet other media networks have made the same conclusion that in the un security council has condemned the killing of sharina walkway and called for a transparent,

impartial investigation. but they haven't supported the palestinian authority's call for an investigation by the international criminal court. essentially leaving accountability in israel's hands. kristin salumi al jazeera, the united nations present. she ging ping has defended china's record to the un high commissioner for human weiss. michelle bash lays on the 6th day visit to china . it coincides with a leaking of thousands of photographs, reportedly showing wiggle people in so called re education camps, and shoot to kill orders for escape attempts. china as repeatedly denied detaining a 1000000 muslims and other ethnic minorities in shing john province. the latest miss i launches by north korea have been followed by south korean and us soldiers doing live fire drills. they started hours after president joe biden feel home after meeting south korea's new president in suki all at the weekend. both agreed to hold larger military exercises than normally held regularly. and those drills

follow north korea firing 3, miss either one of them, an intercontinental ballistic missile. japan and south korea detected them being fired from soon on towards the sea of japan. south korea's government describes the miss santas says a grave provocation. even would it would, it would upset or military show force was intended to highlight her resolve to firmly respond to any north korean provocations. including an icbm lodge and our overwhelming capability and readiness to conduct a surgical strike on the origin of the provocation. in the philippines ferdinand michael's junior has been announced as the next president, the son of the late dictator won the recent election by a landslide. he'll be sworn in at the end of june for a single 6 year term. marcus junior were praised, present, rodrigo detective, an overcrowded migrant boat has sunk off the coast of tenicia. at least one person is known to have drowned and $75.00. others are missing. 24 were rescued. the vessel capsize off the city of fox after leaving zora in libya.

ah, this is al jazeera and these are headlines, british prime minister voice johnson says he takes full responsibility for the drinking culture that developed in downing street is common follow a damning reporting to parties that were held during the peak of crone of irish luck dance. so grey's report says they should not have happened and that senior leaders must bear responsibility. i briefly attended such gatherings to thank them for the service, which i believe is one of the central duties of leadership are particularly oh and particularly important when people need to feel with their contributions have been appreciated. and to keep my role as high as possible. i'm proud to explain the reasons i was on the speaker. i did clear from what su grey, who's had to say, but some of these gatherings then went on for longer than was necessary.

and they were clearly a breach of the rules and they felt follow hulu. and a gunman has killed 19 primary school children and 2 teachers in the u. s. state of texas. it happened in volunteer, and his re ignited cause for gun control across the us. those are the had 9 witnesses next the what was known that we need to know that on this, which i don't need to be here with me. when you look at me, when you buy them, when you get this message, can you open the home and ya today? and we're going to give you what we said as well. they didn't put me

i'm a lot of money out of them as a possible give me just one. i know. i mean, i mean, i shooting a lot of data. a companies have access to radio ads and tv ads and online newspapers with the one space that is supposed to be sacred. li,

ours belonging to the public for the public by the public is as the name implies, public space. there's something about them that has always seemed grotesque to me and just so out of place, i don't think that billboards have any appropriate function in a public space. this is the corner here. we're here. we're on burnside drive right now. a beautiful side street in toronto. and this, believe it or not as number 25, burnside. but then you've got these are so big. they're just so big. it's like i like the way donald trump tweets in all caps. going to go up on one. i think this can be turned into a little cafe. up here. there's something really nice meeting there be

a conveyor belt will talk. you will just come to the right here. beautiful view. i actually took the time to ask the city steak. that was 15 years ago with a face billboard don't have proper permit. then technically they're actually pieces of corporate garbage just lying around, in which case i think it's our duty as citizens to clean up that garbage with. ah, in i started doing political activism in my late teens. i have a lot of archives down here from like,

decades of activists projects rank valid campaign. this is a b c referendum on voting reform. city, i'm all this is, this is original trauma, public space committee, stuff 20 years ago. here we go. this is 15 years ago. i think it's such an important issue. and i think the way we communicate with each other visually in our own neighborhoods really affects people, sense of belonging and importance and empowerment. but for people who get involved with politics and activism, and you've got poverty, and you've got a pandemic happening and you've got housing issues and you've got issues around race inequality. it's unlikely that the issue around billboards will go to the top of anyone's agenda. but i think it should be there, i think it affects all those other issues. you know, you can say it's sad to look back and realize we're still fighting the same fights we were in the ninety's. that's life, that's politics. these fights never end. and clearly, i hoard things in

this is the monthly meeting, the tunnel public space committee chair. thank you. i'm always curious if the billboard company showing up at these meetings. so i'm just looking at the name a little that i don't know to see what people on our team. i might be watching performance and then i once had a billboard company send enough people to a meeting to vote me and they put forward a motion to cancel our camp against them. okay, so move on to an update from dave on the billboards. i have 2 questions to ask you guys right now. one is that there is some locations where we need to actually go on the ground and do triangulation and figure out who is property. it's on any just

hands up if anyone's interested in. oh, i see a i see a thumbs up from eagle. mm. mm. this parking lot is private property right here. all this is part of the green outline on the map that is part of the hydro right of way. and as far as i can tell, the billboard literally crosses the line we look for property markers just anywhere, anything i mean, if anything, like, essentially, everywhere here, you didn't bring a machete right out of the mouth. i've never felt so attacked by nature. i'm in the, in the city should be doing this work anyways. so i could ask the city like, can you guys figure this out? i'll regret this tomorrow. that slows things down. it's better if we can show them

evidence that we've already figured it out in spectrum. as lynn is not impressed with what i'm saying. so i was hoping we could say it's on this property. is there a permit or not? but i, i really can't tell. but i would bet this was put up without any permit to matter, proving it. and then convincing staff to enforce the rules. why don't we put some signs on them like notice of investigation as the game? why would that be stuff that scares people? i'm definitely putting a sign up here. these billboards are now under investigation by the front of explains committee me aside from asking city staff to look into the 20 year. so billboards that we're looking at. i also filed a freedom of information request and any citizen can file one of these and it's

a way to get information from the government that usually wouldn't be able to get. that's not our website. it's not in a flyer, but, but it's technically public information. i applied a few weeks ago, i said, does the city have a list of all the billboards and any cross reference data about whether they have permits or not? so i got a response. the decision is accessed is granted in full to the records provided for review. i have to pay a $10.00 fee for a usb stick. wasn't expecting that the records, the rec, the records will be mailed to you after we receive a check or money order. i love how the government makes it as hard as possible. i can't do this by paper how i can do by each transfer. i just send them a check or a money order. it's so frustrating. the government is like so committed to

being stuck in the dark ages. me . great when you are hardly active isn't, doesn't pay the bill for the new side. get going with the kids where fabricating uninstalling, bike racks. so people can lock the bicycles in front of their house. you don't have to make them beeping, sound, k, go otherwise. oh, rainy, tidy, lusty. lucy little more and stuff. i started doing like political activism in my late teens. there is an addictive

nature to it. the pressure isn't expectations of being seen as a leader can be a really heavy weight. ah and i it can create some serious mental health issues. so i've gone through a few major depressive episodes related to burn out and depression. for me, every breakdown i had triggered an identity crisis. you put everything into a campaign. all you've got for months. when you lose it can just you can just feel like such an idiot like a failure. i was worried that my activism was killing me. and the only way i could survive was to drop politics and activism entirely,

but i also knew that political work is so embedded in my dna. and that's part of who i am. i really struggle with trying to understand where my life was going. what is it 20 year old activists turn into and then i met euchre. me. i. i knew he was a full time activist. he lived in breathing activism. it wasn't like something he did. it was something he, he was he was smart, he was clever. he knew how to take an issue and get on the front page like theater and gramma and agree and humor. to put forward ideas about what are the year 2010 is to share that nobody goes bad. my re let everybody has a roof above their head. i don't remember to current any context other than

activism, so i don't really have memories of him just as a friend me. i want to be like him. but i'm also, i don't wanna, i want to diverge from his journey. took him, me. i, oh, i ok. so essentially i did a freedom of information request to the city saying, what have you guys got in terms of a database of existing signs and whether or not you have permits and will know right away hopefully which which sites have permits. okay, check your mouse. don't open that yet. the ready?

yeah. you're ready. you're ready. big with it? yeah, they did a good job. i think the big okay. i'm opening it. invoice stage. ah, it's done by the tax amount. so it's $1570.00. what is all, it's been almost 10000000 annually. so we're up against where does the part about where's the part about permits? i don't see anything here about permits. so i think we need to follow up. this does not have the data i asked for them when it comes to advocacy. we're up against these companies who have multi $1000000.00 budgets. they can hire the best lobby is the best p r people. so we need to try every tactic. we can i miss your assistant today. i'm going to put, madame or you, i have your table. it's a nice day. i will go over to the grass. okay. yeah.

they won't bring any flowers. no, you know this, these are, these are earthworms. there. there is no reason to be intimidated by me whatsoever . i guarantee you. okay. you're the one actually with the power. you're asking me questions so i don't know what's coming. good point. yeah. the billboards. burns i . billboards. they've been there for quite a while and there they could be distracting, as there's a lot of drivers near there. and not only just because it's an ad or a billboard, but because it's so sudden in the middle of all these trees and things. but i'm looking at it's just, i think there is an email concerning the billboards from quite a while ago. this is dated 2006. it's set knows something of the new information rich. not none of us were really sure what it was. you just heard that there was new information that ended up having them remain, but they never divulged what that was. yeah. how would you like to work together to

look into if they're allowed to be there and let's follow up and have a discussion. sure, thank you. me . she's really strong, early, focused and creative, productive, and just mellow. i met wrote this last year on an airplane in the middle of a burnout. so it says you are here. and then it's got all these paths forward of different projects. i could be working on so this is the billboard thing i decided and this is a hobby. it'll never be funded. i don't want it to be funded. i want it to be abi, it's when you start getting really hyper excited about the work. and when you're being fueled on adrenalin, that you risk burning out here,

sylvia. look at us in our matching hoodies. with a squad man, billboard squad. so look, i have it might be exciting. it might be nothing either they've, they're just sending us the same garbage again or they caved and sent us what i know they have. okay, here with that or be different. it's a nice usb of the cities logo on it. ok, i'm scared to look at it. you look at it on what you see. i want permits. i want something. give us something. if they gave us a 2nd, mr. the numbers permit numbers. don't think science permit number. nice. i'm just scrolling down and when you get to like a 100, there's a bunch that say, you know,

her records have been locating there are 662 entries that say no permit records have been located. this is great. this is the 1st time i've ever seen this data. 25 burnside, no permit records have been located ah, the mailing oh, what do we do now with all this? this is amazing. mary. you're from american say, according to your records, it seems like these don't have permit, right. can you confirm right? either? have them removed or have them get permit or can call me all right, bye. everyone have a great weekend and thanks for helping out with

in some ways me revere the most famous activists in history and martin luther king . gandhi, everyone loves a good activist, but no one wants their kids to go down that route. so when i was in my twenties, everyone i grew up with was in university, launching careers, and i'm marching in the streets with artists. i never had anyone to turn to and the one guy who i did jumped off a bridge is our, my pass goes, does my path inevitably lead to taking my own life? and this is a place you were before i've been there before. i've been there 3 times now. each time i felt like a probably wasn't going to come out of it. i might have had stress like anyone does . but i was coping. and then suddenly i'm just crying like a baby for months. and i started to fear myself more than anything. i feel like it's all coming back to sucker now because that was the 1st time that you had that burnout was after he died. one of the question my head was like, can you be an,

an activist in your thirty's forty's. and the only answer i could find really was to her. when he stepped off the bridge, this anchor that i had emotionally attached myself to suddenly was gone. and it put everything i had done in question me in here at the meeting last time. so i did it freedom of information request. so this includes the burnside information that they've had for like 15 years and would never thought they should share. they did get a notice of violation saying that you've never had assign permit and nothing in

here suggest otherwise. feel like they're throwing everything. they cannot get something to stag because they never have the fact that they've done all this digging and haven't found anything with the word permit in it. i think that be really powerful to be able to say in these 47 pages, you've sent us the word term. it doesn't appear once me i just want to thinking 1st, getting out of school a little bit early, but i didn't even, i don't even have a culture. and you're, you're welcome. so just what you learned so long in the short of it is, is that the advice that i'm getting from the city staff is that they, they are convinced that they have. busy the tools they need in the toolbox to effectively get rid of the signs, so to say very plainly, whatever,

whatever the city or i would do, they see it ending up in court where they are not convinced that the company would be successful. and they're not willing to try, they don't know. so they're a, they're always saying that they're avoiding trying even trying to defend their own bias out of the year of lot of losing it wouldn't have to be like, not playing a baseball game because you might know when i said the verbatim. this funny i use the exact same example by it and i don't that's reasonable. i find it kind of sad that the city's own lawyers are caving on this. you have not seen any information that would lead you to believe that a that a permit exist for the thought? no. okay.

me. it's easy to get really emotionally attach. i've done that. like your campaign becomes like, like a child. and then when you lose a campaign, it's like it's so crushing me now we usually lose campaigns because of the stupid to train them just because someone's trying to make a bach. mm. it's always like walk in a fine line. you want to play by the rules, but you have to be prepared to push the envelope of a letter that you wrote. dear activists. another strange day for me, i lived breathing and focused on activism. it kept me thinking, inspired,

interested, and alive, but are also allowed me to ignore other things in life that now suddenly i realize i never developed. and now i find myself in a dark and confusing labyrinth trying to feel my way back to sanity and come in. i think i've been in a place that was as dark as he was that day. me the scariest thing for me was worrying that i would make the same mistake, took her to me. i was able to maintain enough faith to believe that the nightmare with me and took her didn't get back from that space. the particular was missing in the part that i've learned how to do really well. i think at this point is just loving myself. oh and not feeling bad about that.

mm. he wouldn't want us crying over him and he'd be like, sorry guys, no, sorry. i had to do that, but like, don't let it distract you from your activism. you gotta go see the world do for at the end of the day, for me it's all about power and why don't we have power? and i'm not thrilled with how the city has acted. i feel like there's a bit of negligence on their part to regular work day for the trauma, public space committee by law citizen enforcement unit, someone's gotta do it. and this city bureaucracy will never be a leader in reform. there's always going to be a private interest that interferes with the needs of the community and the community doesn't stand up for themselves. they'll get trembled with. we've

been pretty lucky with rain so far with okay, and if we're going to be a little hard, this is really when you're ready to go inspired me by making me realize that sometimes you have to be a little theatrical like uniform. absolutely gorgeous. as i've left the human species has improved. it fell through millions of tiny vectoring people in their own way at their own pace and trying to make a difference in all these changes happen. not because of anyone here. it's because thousands and thousands of law again,

something was wrong with the tire and i need a milking mm . new ah journey has begun. the fee for world cup is on its way to catherine. hook your cattle package to death. i suppose once he's got cold,

it's going to stay cold. that's true for chilling argentina. cody has come in, sir, it's a single figure for the most part. no big surprise, however, where the cold reached the me be rather warm stuff over uruguayan se present. he tend to get his lines of what can't be persistent but dramatic thunderstorms last night. happen again, i think during they've pa to wednesday and possibly last me into thursday as well. most of brazil is dry, most of paraguay and bolivia is fairly dry. well, at the western side though, and columbia, which boasts one of the wet his places in the world, is seeing a bit of a relief from the what's been very heavy season. rain of late, but still looks fairly heavy, ran panama and costa rica, and possibly nicaragua, or as well. it's the pacific coast. i think that's going to be wet is this time to some more activity taking place in the eastern side of the pacific, which might end up producing tropical storms. but in the meantime, were feeding warm and moist. terrified to give you sunday storms for texas or
