call it a stop in the nations that was. passing funds the ku klux klan. this is our team with our weekly needs review and the latest developments bonnet clashes witnessed in the center of moscow on saturday instigated by nationalist groups that's the belief of russia's interior minister thousands had gathered in the capital to mount the recent death of a russian football fan who was killed in a brawl but the peaceful gathering soon turned into a bloody battle with police. that was at the scene when the bandits are up to. anger mismanagement thousands of football fans took their aggression to the streets of the russian capital in a small field riot transforming quiet central moscow as flares and bottles flew

overhead riot police detained instigators of the clashes at what started out as a peaceful commemorative rally to know that. some people have reacted very violently the death of the spotlight was a good fit with i do believe that some of their dissatisfaction is understandable but it is unacceptable when we have aggression with firecrackers that those into flames and ordinary people sort of police have already arrested those responsible for the murder. and will arrest others everyone is equal before the law. this hang question was shot dead last week during a mass brawl most of those gathered in the city's minute square simply wanted to pay their respects and demand a full investigation into the death of one of their own but take into account the fact that the suspect in this homicide is from the north caucasus and the story it's an ugly nationalist twist according to officials members of the country's various nationalist movements and not football fans instigated the violence by you

but by the way it was we saw that radical protestors joins those spots at fans honoring the dead men and insides of mass protests and fighting thirteen people a known hospital the police must act tough but within the law and they did everything they had to act in as the situation as follows. the clashes didn't stop with just the capital either petersburg rally in memory of city that quickly turned into a fight between protesters and riot police with many injured and over fifty detained so is this nationalist violence for violence sake or is there have been agenda nationalists far right is working very hard to mobilize the book into a different nationalist the new. you know it's a group. doing a lot of propaganda with a lot of success the fans who are there are not exactly blameless themselves just a few days ago spar tech supporters disrupted their team's match in slovakia they

were three was forced to call the match off anyway for cup management is already considering serious punishment for the team and the next matches can be held with no audience in the future in the europa league and for me it's quite a nor quite normal and of course the part that will be fine and on thursday i think next day after the match the head coach of sport that their carbon so that it's not accepted found to behave like that sans clain they want justice for a friend who had been killed but violence is not the answer saturday's clash is prove them both the story and the aggression are not really about football to the instigators however it's all fair game tensions have been on the rise death you've got to speed up even though there are some call doing nothing to block tempers police managed to restore order to the streets of the capital and st petersburg but

many are still afraid this is again a violent. catch your eyes are about our team lost. british police have launched a major investigation into this week's violent student protests which took place as the house of commons approved a hike into mission fees thursday saw thousands of demonstrators turn out in central london with windows smashed at the treasury in the supreme court even attacked a car carrying construct of life were travelling to western theatre royal couple were on a student union says more rallies in cities are likely. elice finally passed university fees will triple to a maximum of nine thousand pounds a year opposition labor m.p. jamie coleman says the move with effectively bar the poor from higher education. what we're seeing is the end of access to higher education for people of average and below average incomes it's going to be the preserve of the wealthier in the future the trend will be we'll have

a less well educated less skilled less qualified population i see education as an investment for the future we'll vested in young people reinvesting in skills we're investing in knowledge we're investing in our future that way is the economic growth of the future where the advantages of to morrow where the writers and the artists and musicians of tomorrow this is cutting at the core of society those that created this economic mess that we're in are the ones who should pay for it a transaction tax a wealth tax a tax on the very wealthiest people in our society would help to close the gap there is no need to basically hit the poorest people in our society in order to pay off this debt in march in time we need a more sensible more rational more humane approach to the whole issue we're not getting that from the government at the moment that's why the students are on the streets that's why the seventy occupations and crucially that's why so many others trade unions and people work in the public sector and people are worried about their services are also joining the students in the demonstration. meanwhile oland

some economists argue a system the public needs to important thing is that people every last that have some poor over the birds and it can use it to make some question. but so far government reaction to the pressure has been somewhat mild. it would be funny if it wasn't so tragic cantona's call to arms is grotesque is not serious. they simply should be magnificently i wouldn't dare to try and think it's best for everyone to stick to a very specialty she's saying eric cantona doesn't know he's talking about me well being p the biggest bank in france taking billions from the federal commerce in america to make up for their shortcomings as a banking institution how can christine legarde doesn't take care of her own banks around the country who are now hearing themselves out to him to the congress for handouts i mean it's pathetic it may take much more than a few thousand will draw to make

nation. well this is a region still starkly divided along ethnic lines most notably between the majority albanian population they make up some ninety percent of the population here in the minority community of around one hundred thousand people it's told that around fifty percent of the electorate who vote in elections today but the majority of them will be albanians. are divided they say they do want to vote to change their view daily lives they say they face daily persecution and they live in very poor living conditions they suffer high unemployment a lack of basic amenities like electricity and there's a lack of freedom of movement across the region here but they don't necessarily want to engage in the cause of an electoral system and of course there is then the coup for our brains to boycott these elections so what's expected to happen is that living in the north of the region and who is still directly linked to serbia by

rodin very much looks to belgrade to not vote in these elections but. living in the something place and that will cost off geographically from where they have no choice but to engage in this electoral votes if they are to change their lives and that they will go to the polls today so integration remains a long way off the wall many albanians here are very optimistic about these elections billing them as historic in the start of a new unified era that sense of optimism is not said among the serbian community had. what all the politicians saying about all this and all of a promising to tackle the problem in any way. well they all but of course there are all the several crucial problems that need to be addressed here and cost . of unemployment according to some estimates that runs as high as forty to fifty percent of the population the current unemployed in kosovo has europe's youngest.

the economy here is one of the weakest in europe and then there's crime and corruption food to be endemic at every level here in the in costs of a recent poll showing that consequence compared with all the balkan residents have suffered a drastic loss of faith in all public institutions here from the parliament to the judiciary so many politicians here instead chosen to address these issues in order to further their progress towards e.u. and they say membership and then of course the candidate list itself includes several candidates from across the major parties who currently under investigation for crimes ranging from corruption to peace of office and indeed one candidate the leader of the. of the future of. space biggest policy is actually in the hague at the moment on a retrial in front. how to deny you legs that's

the. mission here and members of anti corruption and j.c. said that these men should not be standing in these elections to discredit and undermine the legitimacy. of that. now the u.s. justice department is looking into cyber attacks on companies that have cut off donations to wiki leaks the whistle go supporters have been a waging an online war against firms like visa master card and pay pal the company's all suffered online outages after we can expound on the sanjay's bank account was frozen he's currently in jail in london fighting extradition to sweden on sex crime allegations the hackers are promising more attacks meanwhile as a chicken reports the firms which of cut off with you. need to support other controversial groups. the u.s. government has presented no charges against julian

a song but that hasn't stopped government officials from reportedly putting pressure at the highest level to cut off weekly leaks money supply a 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 massive card and b. cell are no longer accepting cash donations for the controversial website it's the threat of this has some impact on national security and when you say that in the united states everybody. you know what's their patents and they do what they're told. and so i think that it's a misconception in some cases that people think that the us is purely a money driven society it's not the government has certain progressives particularly over national security no court ruling no legal procedures were needed

to crack down on the radio going ization later pay-pal backtracked on its statement it had acted upon the government's request mastercard and visa were most of a sieve on the subject but the general explanation they give for not accepting donation payments for we kill it says that the site quoting courage is promotes facilitates or instruct others to engage in illegal activity but on the other hand neither master card more said i have any problems processing donations for say nuku clark's clan a racist movement and his. 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 a 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 elites but americans cracked down on the organization that appears to be fighting for transparency and freedom of speech leaves many asking what happens to

american values of freedom of expression these are very difficult things for us to face as americans this is not what we believe in our country we believe it's a country that respects the markers you lot are going to be shown that we're the opposite is not easy but us politicians do not shy away from flashing their democratic values when rooting for chinese fighter for freedoms he won the nobel peace prize so there you see the governor of west of the so-called international community. is targeted for having released information. what what you should be doing and then you have a case where the same people will be pushing for a candidate which is a dissident within the people's republic of china so they are playing double standards with that regard some even suggest why not give the prize to julian a song this year is freedom of speech will surely. be

a rational explanation for giving it's to wiki leaks others can't help asking if u.s. officials are so down on why aren't they after the new york times in the same way or the british newspaper the guardian or germany's they're speaking those are the weak elites 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 up on their web page when you go to the new york times or der spiegel. or the guardian or you swear putting up. so what could possibly be the legal rationale for going after we can leaks and not going after the new york times there are a lot of unanswered questions about one thing is on the surface the u.s. shows it can interpret democratic values however it wants depending on its gains
