10:04 pm

10:05 pm
many more victims before leveling off in october we go there are no artsy volgograd . not content with provoking an international incident between russia and the us found fertile chapman is back in the news now the face of the recent spy scandal is being sued by a glossy magazine it claims she broke a contract by posting pictures of a recent photo shoot on her facebook page all she's told bottom half the details. the name on the chapman that sticks out more than any other she seems are synonymous with this big spy scandal and one of the reasons unavoidably everyone knows it's her looks and she has realized this she came back to russia greeted as a hero after the exchange of spies in vienna back in back in july and she has capitalized on that almost celebrity status since it's in the hotel behind me the hotel bulge chick that she recently conducted
10:06 pm
a photo shoot she seemed to be enjoying it very much in videos posted on the internet using her glamour this was for the russian edition of heat magazine but she since got into a bit of trouble it seems putting photos up on her facebook page of that photo shoot before he did wanting now to take her to court the whole spy scandal and this whole thing has also opened up a wider really fascination with spy stories in britain america has a story that one of the screenwriters on or on a james bond script was investigated for many years by my side for possible links to the old cold war k.g.b. another example is that it's been found that a russian spy was recruited by the nazis in world war two and then proceeded to go to norway and steal british plans for an invasion of norway handed them to the nazis which the late enabled them to defeat the british invasion which then led to
10:07 pm
the collapse of the british government and the election eventual of none other than winston churchill so huge ramifications really and it seems that with many spy stories the details are as fantastical as any fiction you could make up but it seems that many people want to get their teeth into these stories and i think the public have found it all very amusing the person who is enjoying it the most though is miss anna chapman herself she's found her firm fertile status is bringing her a lot of attention and she seems to be enjoying our very much. you know without see and still to come on the program the searing its own agenda we can leaks is accused of trying to attention from a sex scandal involving it's found but publishing its latest revelations. plus extreme thrills all deadly games that would get that instant tripe on the safai. as the u.s. declares an official and states combat mission in iraq minutes to last if the wall
10:08 pm
there is really over around fifty thousand troops remain in the country to help maintain security and to local forces take over complete control but for what cia officer jack rice says the u.s. government and pentagon are glossing over the problems in iraq for the benefit of the american public the obama administration and even the pentagon to some degree as well is basically look at the political side of this big here continue this indefinitely we can't and so we've looked at what the american people what everybody wants because war could be going in the united states the problem is is it is it is not going to be a lot of the problems that we are used to a lot of the problems that the rockies themselves raised in the past they're still there and miscues them that you're finding within the country still exist the problems in their legislature still exist the violence still exists just because it's under the surface doesn't mean it's disappeared it's just that we desperately
10:09 pm
want it to disappear so we really believe shot it up and say mission accomplished. eight crew members are still missing after a tugboat sank twenty miles off the coast in the far north of russia the captain and crew have been picked up by a ship that a distress signal a rescue ship is on its way to pick up three more crewman spotted in a life raft fourteen sailors were on board the top boat at the time of the incident . wiki leaks is back in the headlines after publishing a classified cia report but with the document failing to live up to its hype and what the science found a currently under investigation over sex abuse claims it's like the online a whistleblower piece a secret agenda there and it has to details been a big week for he does have some legal problems this week so we do have to ask ourselves why has this report being will being released now particularly as it's so
10:10 pm
short and describes this hypothetical situation last weekend it became clear that two swedish women had come forward one of them was accusing him of rape and the other was accusing him of molestation. charges being dropped but we recently heard about this we just prosecution will want to question. about the molestation charge which is a lesser charge it's been suggested that this is a smear campaign following the afghan war diaries the lawyers for these two swedish women say that's absolute nonsense as do the two swedish women themselves but we do have to ask ourselves whether this report has been released now in order to deflect attention from. his legal problems. meanwhile critics say wiki leaks is nothing more than a propaganda organization and its founder a simple cog and the wheel. it could just be a front organization and you could just be the mastermind but he's made out to be much of the media maybe not even the founder of wiki leaks you know sometimes it
10:11 pm
was founded by chinese dissidents whatever that supposed to mean. but just kind of the use of kind of the front just kind of a mascot and actually do we know more about him. for instance about his i t competence don't you don't you have the skills to develop this supposedly wonderful system for uploading leaks securely which by the way is not currently working. until we know more about it but i think the most plausible hypothesis is that the guy is just kind of a front burner but i think there are very very serious questions to be out about the motivations of the group and even what is the group the point is we know nothing about weekly and until we know more about them we really don't know what they're up to and just remind you we're got much more stories on our website called so we guys fashion columns and even space blogs so now let's have

growing between urban and rural india in the cities gas divisions are now less important while in rural india many refused to let go of their traditions. anybody marrying outside is cast as boycotted by us no one in the village gives the couple any water or food or even tax that if we find a marriage really offensive then we kick them out of the village. caste is just a creation of one's mindset there is no real hierarchy between people and situation there ration who considers caste and even if we do the next generation will definitely not even think of it discrimination on the basis of past is illegal in india but in large parts of the country dreaminess the overriding factor in choosing a life partner the sooner this changes the sooner we'll divisions over the past lose their relevance here got unseeing r.t. india president has awarded an inquiry into the investigation of the death of a high profile lawyer while in custody last year that the seventy year old sergei

that's tres rush so does the adrenaline for a growing number of youngsters in brush on taking part in the highly dangerous activity of training surfing riding on the outside of cairo also has jacob grieves me the young people who are willing to risk their lives. some would find these acts jupiter even crazy but for those who take part in what's become internationally known as train surfing is about the adrenalin rush the great involves riding on top or at the side of fast moving trains clinging on with their hands or the aid of a belt the danger involved this is for many a major attraction but authorities are worried that those taking part are fully aware of the risks running along these cables above me of three thousand volts of electricity if you touch one you most likely be killed and that's just one of the dangers riders also risks falling from the train and being crushed but that hasn't
10:19 pm
deterred these guys they took up the hobby at an early age gave them an unbridled escape from reality. to getting any but we mostly just ride the trains not pulling any crazy stunts this is just a hobby the guitar adrenaline up. and as if that wasn't there enough maybe even taking to riding the metro just to get their daily kicks to these young men is also become a form of expression and they don't see why this is tree sport is being seen differently to other why the practice pastimes of the people skydive or climb mountains we ride trains on the outside certainly there's a risk but we plan all our steps we know trains very well where different things you can hold on to are we have certain safety guidelines. they and other adrenaline junkies like them have set up a list of these to avoid injury and even the likes of andrei mit the activity has

10:22 pm
today i'm talking to gerald batten who's a member of the european parliament for london he's with the u.k. independence party which is a euro skeptic party and he's recently announced his intention to stand for leadership of ukip gerald batten thanks very much for talking to r.t. you're welcome just but you won't write one small point in your introduction you
10:23 pm
describe this is a euro skeptic party that's not true skepticism implies some doubt we have absolutely no doubt one hundred percent that membership in the european union is bad for britain so we're not skeptical about that and one of the key tenets of your opposition to the european union well first of all it's it's an economic and democratic disaster first of all there is no reason for the european union i mean the white soul was sold to people forty years ago and has been ever since is that we must have it to try and jobs we don't need it for trade jobs even the even the european union has its back now rather than what we need is trade with europe and the rest of the world friendship and cooperation we don't need to be members of this vast bureaucratic organization in order to achieve that the other thing is the loss of democracy which although membership the cost us billions of pounds every year which is why state money was actually worse than that is our loss of democracy the germans calculated in two thousand and six that about eighty three percent of new laws now come from the european union not from their. parliament. and in this
10:24 pm
report i question whether germany could be really fun. because of this for what it's equally true for the u.k. a similar time of qatar the country eighty four percent of our laws now come from the institutions of the which is not democratic and the european union has its ambition to become a super state to rival united states and i think it's a very wrong road for us to go down and britain should leave as soon as possible and we are living in a globalized world there is it possible for the u.k. to just step out of the but what does that mean what are the global laws will means it's much easier to get on an airplane now and go anywhere you like very quickly which is one of the reasons we have such a problem with uncontrolled immigration that kind of globalisation it's a reality that doesn't mean to side that you have to sacrifice your independence and self-government governance in the modern world in fact quite the opposite i think the problem with the modern world is that people are losing their control over their elected representatives and their governments and we're becoming less
10:25 pm
democratic i think necessarily a bad thing you have said in the past that the e.u. is in a legal state can you explain what you meant by that yes because under the lisbon treaty it basically became the constitution of the european union we have a constitution in this country written down in different places like for example the sixty nine hundred bill of rights which says that they solve is the is the form of all power and the sovereign cannot acknowledge a higher power and i will you're a monarchist or republican it doesn't matter that's our constitution what we did with the with the policeman treaty is we acknowledged that officially a higher authority the union for example now has a legal personality of its own it can make treaties on its own so that in fact means that britain we are living under any legally constituted government talk to me about their legal integration taking place in the e.u. particularly about the european arrest warrants european arrest warrant is the first part of the process whereby we are integrating our legal systems with those
10:26 pm
of the european union and the. what you got to remember is that the anglo-saxon common war model adopted by the united states and canada and sex in countries around the world is completely different from the continental napoleonic system now under our system you have to be charged with a specific offense the police have to gather the evidence before you're arrested goes to a trial we have corpus all these things that we take for granted on the continent you can be arrested as a suspect you can spend a year eighteen months in prison while i investigate the case before i even bring it to court against you now under the european arrest warrant we got rid of all the safeguard now if you are required for extradition under the european arrest warrant the court deciding on that has really little power to refuse it now what's also in the party line is things like be european investigation order to go back coming along the trials in absentia which means that anybody can be tried in a in a european country not even particularly aware that this trial is going on they are
10:27 pm
supposed to let you know that they can contact you could suddenly find the british police turn up on your doorstep ever arrested you they will exploit you many barberry any country in the european union and you will go straight into the prison system and the legal system. and of course all this is going to be presided over by european public prosecutor europol which very uncertain interestingly in its charter has complete immunity for anything or its offices are completely munity for anything that they do or anything in the course of their duties now even the n.k.v.d. in stalin's terror didn't have that protection against against recourse if they did something wrong technically anyway but this is what we're lining up for us and we are destroying our own legal system and you know you kipps party statesman on immigration what's your view on a cap on emigration and nikkei immigration into our country has been out of control for a very long time now purely on on the numbers basis we are one of the most about the
10:28 pm
most densely populated country in. we are one of the most densely populated countries in the world if you actually look on a league table and yet our population is set to grow from sixty two million currently up to seventy million within the next twenty or thirty years and thereafter up to eighty eighty five million exponentially it is absolutely absurd to have effectively unlimited uncontrolled immigration into this country we have anyway from within the european union where we can't stop people coming even wanted to and we don't really control it from outside either a recent report has shown that with a cap on immigration british companies might find themselves short of workers particularly as some immigrant workers are more highly skilled than that but his counterparts what do you say to that oh yes i mean i know quite a lot of foreign people especially me come to work with a highly qualified the got a great work ethic they're lovely people but if you look at the number of jobs created in the economy ninety eight percent of the jobs created since labor came to
10:29 pm
power in ninety seven up until last year went to migrant labor you know how does it benefit your economy so you drive the wages down for indigenous people you poor housing prices up so everybody is actually worse off in the long and of course big business loves. immigration because they get cheap labor that's what they want what we would introduce would be. very very limited immigration for permanent settlement and i've suggested a figure of no more than fifty thousand a year and even that could be revised down but people could still still come to work on a job permit basis for one to three years if we can't fill that post with an indigenous work and at the end of that process if the person wanted to become a british citizen by would have a right to apply for citizenship on the very on the you know the annual limit that we would allow in for that purpose thank you very much.
