3:01 am
and online this is. top story now london is clearing up after another day of violent student protests after lawmakers approved a hike in university fees writers targeted government buildings even prince charles has come up with our london correspondent is with us now laura what kind of state is a british capital in this morning. well you know what kerry i've come in from south of the river this morning and it's amazing how large parts of london have remained completely unaffected by this violence but i know that not a modern way from here where the majority of the action took place on parliament square there's a huge cleanup operation in progress sisters did everything from there's a telephone books just by the treasury which every single tiny pane of glass has
3:02 am
been meticulously smashed by somebody so it ranges from things like that to putting up barriers up around parliament square pushing them back up again so that people can't get back on to that patch of land just opposite the houses of parliament they also as you mentioned the treasury smashed a lot of windows at the treasury and tried to get in they'll be clearing that up also a lot of windows smashed the supremes of course so a lot of it will be a question of sweeping up broken glass and trying to make people forget the events of yesterday this is now being called the worst unrest in a decade we have reports from the metropolitan police of thirty four arrests for a variety of offenses which range from violent disorder through criminal damage right down to austin at the moment we're hearing a variety of different figures in terms of who was injured but we certainly know that three police officers were injured and had to be taken to hospital one
3:03 am
seriously he was knocked unconscious during a scuffle and certainly six protesters are also in hospital having been in today's figures may be higher than the ones that we have. police say she did statement following yesterday's demonstration they said that their officers had come to work in order to facilitate a peaceful demonstration but what they were met by was a borrower's of violence sustained attack by testers they were throwing fences that the i.o.c. saw lots of missiles being thrown including an empty bottles which smashed on police officers were very near to them deliberately aimed at the police who were obviously. trying to do their job of being thrown at them as well and a lot of use of firecrackers strained directly from inside the barricade that the police made with the protesters inside it directly aimed at police while i say that the majority of action was centered at the houses of parliament that protesters did break out also gets to regent street the main shopping streets and
3:04 am
they themselves inside and completely vandalized shops like ship store which is on the street that this is not a new thing they've already done that's a group of protesters weekends they break into top shop that's a protest against philip green who who is the magnate. top shop he's accused by the protesters seems rightly of registering some of his companies off shore so that he doesn't have to pay tax in this country and that's seen by process as something that symbolizes what they're fighting against which is essentially the rich taking advantage of that position in order to not pay taxes which then in turn the little people have to pay for essentially something that has really shocked the british media this morning is that in that area as well prince charles and his wife camilla as call it was attacked they were on their way to the protesters attacked they're called in one of the windows and three paint all a brick this looks like
3:05 am
a deliberate attack on the royal family they seem to be targeted while they were on this on their way to this performance they are on homs but questions are being asked this morning about how that could have been allowed to happen where would the police when that was going away was the protection that they should have had with them. so a lot of passing vandalism some more serious than others but it does look like there will be cautions to this they're not going to let the protesters get away with it in fact one of the last things they did last night when they were dispersing this demonstration was to feed all the praise has to. bridge that just behind me and then let them out literally one by one. and so they could try and identify the ones the specific ones who had found allies the treasury and bring them to book about it they had c.c.t.v. pictures of that while it was going on so they were trying to identify them by face for letting them out so there are a lot of anger on various fronts there are as you say i mean the plan for the tuition fees in particular has been signed off so all the students wanting to go quietly now. has been very controversial and i think the brief answer to your
3:06 am
question is no these are university fees which will apply to the next generation of students rather than the ones that are at university at the moment so students going to college vote in sort of two thousand and twelve and their fees will be tripled from the level that they are at the moment at least for some of them so there's a lot of anger against the government for doing that particularly the democrats one of the ruling parties in the coalition who have backtracked some of the election promise and there is a promise from the process is that they're not going to stop let's hear what chris knights sees didn't protest have to say about that when we speak to him yesterday. for me the. spirit of six year age come again we. saw the parachute in progress young people leading the struggle for freedom and first the students moved and then the workers this is exactly what's happening here except i think it will be a much bigger scary world across europe. and of course this isn't an isolated
3:07 am
incident of a violent process that we've seen in london already we've also seen them across europe there's a general and growing anger in europe that the ordinary people the working people are being made to pay three well stares the masses for the mistakes and blunders of the privileged few i'm talking about the property speculation is people indeed like . philip green who go offshore so they don't have to pay their taxes and people are sick of paying for things like that so we certainly prices that i spoke to yesterday certainly suggested that this wouldn't be the last time they were turned out of the streets and in fact it may get significantly worse. ok i do keep us updated or our correspondent. from london for us thank you. well the months of disquiet around europe come as governments across the continent are being forced to shore up the euro currency some bowman from the item smith institute says a possible end to the euro is on the cards. it wouldn't take
3:08 am
a genius to see that there is a crisis approaching the. continent wide crisis i think it is probably because of the government but i think the bailout it just failed to market. is still extremely high now we're seeing portugal and spain creeping up words as well so i think we're probably going to see quite a difficult year for the it's not the end of the coming months i think we need to start looking to the future looking at how countries can return to their. turn to a way that they're able to get their way out of these kind of. high or low interest kind of bubbles that the euro was created. where they have a currency that's suitable for their own economies rather than for france and germany which is really what the project is all about. coming up in the program deadly disease malaria it's a billion people around the world find out why some in india say the real number is even higher. and the palis boasting swimming pools and

3:10 am
senior executive of america's money transfer giant pay pal said the state department had written to the company claiming the online whistleblower was involved in illegal activities so pay pal along with master card and the sat no longer accept cash donations for the controversial website it's the threat of this impact on national security and when you say that in the united states everybody. you know what's their pants and they do what they're told. and so i think that it's a misconception in some cases that people think that the u.s. is purely a money driven society it's not the government certain particularly over national security no court ruling no legal procedures were needed to crackdown on the media organization i think it's outrageous wiki leaks has not been charged with a single u.s. crime and i'm saying even charged with
3:11 am
a crime and here the nation or the country's financial institutions are taking action on behalf of our state department to extinguish this whistleblower web site later pay-pal back tracked on acting upon the u.s. government's work crass master card and the so where most of a sieve on the issue but the general explanation they give for not accepting donation payments will weaken leaks is that the site quote encourages promotes facilitates or instructs others to engage in illegal activity but on the other hand neither master card had any problems processing donations for say no kuku. clan. movement and his two mandate is the history of extreme violence with the goals of racial segregation and white supremacy and yet it takes seconds to make a donation to the klan we're using one of one of those i think is that the zen
3:12 am
master card must be saying it's all about business right but they're not saying that when it comes to weaken leaks and number of senators including the chairman of the homeland security committee joe lieberman were quick to pat those companies on the back for cutting off cash to weak he leaks but some can't help asking if u.s. officials are so down on we kill leaks why aren't they after the week you leaks partner papers one other incredible thing about the prosecution is that so many people are falsely reporting that we can leaks has dumped two hundred fifty thousand documents that's not true at all they only were putting stuff on their web page when you go to the new york times or der spiegel. or the guardian or use were putting up or very useful to the united states government in some ways there is a severe slanting in the output that is the new york times got to go through as
3:13 am
many documents as it possibly could in the several weeks or several months given to it by we kulaks to go through these documents and pick and choose those documents that were most conducive towards the new york times there's a lot of mystery surrounding wiki leaks but what's on the surface now are examples of double standards everyone is after a week in leaks but not for example the new york times question is why going to shut down our t. washington d.c. . for the first time in more than seventy is a nobel peace prize will be received by its winner or representative is due to be given to chinese laureate. for his work on human rights and political reform about the pro-democracy activists to saving any definite sentence for subversion chinese authorities have not only banned him but also his wife from attending a ceremony in norway on friday instead organizers will leave. us nation's oil for music release saying peaceful expressions are the core rights professor
3:14 am
michel chossudovsky who simply was ation analyst says it smacks of double standards . i don't want to pass a judgment on you stop all but in effect what this implies it's really been targeting of china you know political sense organ it has nothing to do with what you're a child was actually done and you come to the conclusion that that prize based on political considerations rather than on anything tangible i think that what you see with regard to the sun is double standards going into scientists now being threatened he's being targeted for releasing information to the global leader so there you see the double standards of the so-called international community where a son is targeted for doing what he what he should be doing which is releasing factual information which should be known to the public and then you have advocated
3:15 am
the same people will be pushing for a candidate which is a dissident within the people's republic of china in using the nobel peace prize to justify a political agenda and this year it essentially is there to put pressure on side and to sign this so-called human rights record when in fact the united states human rights record is far worse than that of china. now we're online then too active at r.t. dot com where there is more of the day's news analysis on our new look website. and grounded five u.s. pilots are in trouble after being caught to broaden on camera subunit and tell during a drunken might turn out. and pause for thought after a nationwide contest but when a new pet pooch finally gets a name find out what it is i don't see dot com.

now to india where it's claimed that malaria is killing tens of thousands more people than health officials had first thought was huge numbers of deaths in rural areas go unrecorded it's raised questions as to whether the world health organization is massively underestimating the global malaria death rates charan singh has more. in india's eastern state of bihar one more victim succumbs to malaria it's a treatable infection yet it still takes more lives i mean dhea than h. i.v. . malaria has spread everywhere near our village no medical teams come to help us and hospitals a far away poor people like us a dying at this hospital and but many patients believe they have the parasite to confection down kind of i have a very high temperature and i think i have no larry and i've come to the doctor for treatment because many people in my neighborhood have malaria a new study has found that malaria kills more than thirty mm dime's the number of
3:17 am
people caught in d. estimated by the world health organization since many malaria deaths occurred at home and you nadya's they don't get recorded so researchers was did families and asked them to describe what had happened to the victims a method known as the autopsy we estimated that something like four percent of the deaths between one life and sixty nine years of age were due to malaria and if you multiply that percentage by the national number of deaths at those ages you get two hundred thousand deaths before age seventy in india it's a staggering number especially compared to the world health organization's estimate of just fifteen thousand then were fatalities it disputes the studies saying the responders could mistake muti is commonly found symptoms it is true that you can confuse malaria deaths with other causes of fever however the w.h.o.
3:18 am
accepts the use of verbal autopsy poor estimating childhood deaths from malaria in africa so puzzled why they would think a method would work in one continent and not three thousand miles away in another most medical stuff and indeed hospitals agree the number of malaria deaths is far more than the w.h.o. for. as india faces this killer disease it's important for the government and the. knowledge the scale of the problem only then can they upgrade their disease control strategies and resources to quite clearly affectively you know all its faults seeing r.d. . now this take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world the disputed result of haiti's presidential vote has to be reviewed by election officials announced when all those protests were thousands of people clashed with u.n. peacekeepers some political offices were set on one of the capital's main streets have been. a successful election seen as crucial to establishing active government

don't go away. hello welcome to the business program here in r.t. with me shark them is folly hedge fund so the largest net inflow since two thousand and seven with industry capital increasing by one hundred twenty billion dollars in the third quarter boosted by performance the new money the founder of the moscow based hedge fund richard deitsch says managers investing in emerging markets will see massive inflows as the industry comes back on track after three difficult years . emerging market countries which are very strong emerging market countries have record levels of reserves. i think something like sixty percent or sixty five
3:23 am
percent of all global reserves are now held by currency reserves are held by emerging market countries and when you look at the other side of the equation in developed markets are they can still even be called that. they look like what we used to think emerging markets look like they have extremely high levels of debt. they have a particularly in europe in the periphery of europe they have situations where. they look worse i mean if you look at historically what countries went through crises in emerging markets well they never had macro positions they were never allowed to get to positions where they were as bad as you would see in spain greece or portugal so you have fiscal tightening in the core countries which is inevitable because of the very high levels of debt you don't have that problem in emerging markets and then you have a growth partly because of the fiscal situation and partly because a more secular phenomenon that's much higher in emerging markets than in developed markets so i don't think it's very surprising that we would see that emerging
3:24 am
markets will perform developed markets but despite this great performance over the emerging markets this survey suggests that investors are core shows about allocating new model to emerging markets the figure for the third quarter was just about ten million dollars so what do you think drives investors away and then i think if you remember that the hedge fund investor base itself is still very damaged there's a good portion of it i would say which is gone and maybe never going to return. probably shouldn't have been there in the first place and then kind of some of the larger institutions in the other parts that i think are probably going forward going to be the more significant in better and more stable part of the hedge fund investor base still taking their time i think to move forward when investors come back it's kind of natural they may come back to the core markets first before they go to emerging markets but i wouldn't think that there's anything particularly scary i think on the opposite i think the tremendous enthusiasm about emerging markets and i think you'll see a disproportionate amount of those flows going into emerging markets that we go
