words our debt as a proportion of our g.d.p. was double what it is now then we build millions of houses schools hospitals welfare recognizing actually economically these cuts will make it worse far better to cut the deficit by employing people who then pay tax and insurance rather than throw them onto welfare where actually they depress the economy and we think things worse you've said that the government cuts just attack working people but how do you think this strikes. affects the. ruling class what having three quarters of a million people from four different unions on strike is something that hasn't happened in this country for decades it's the start not the finish to the government is will come back in the autumn and we may well see millions of people on strike so the idea is to build pressure so the government realize that working people the length and breadth of the u.k. are not just going to let them get away with what they're doing and we believe that

pressure forced them to change direction to government bill for pensions at the moment is around thirty billion pounds which does seem excessive a lot of money how do you suggest that they would you say. i don't think they should reduce it i'm quite clear that retirement of dignity and old age where you don't have to struggle to make ends meet should be what we aspire for in the fifth richest country in the world and so my view is public sector pensions and all pension provision is important and instead of a risk to the bottom where we see the worst pension provision in the private sector becoming the model i'd like to see a rising the pension provision and saying it's a priority for people to have a decent retirement could be done in many ways cutting the renewal of trident for example would save us enough money to pay for those pensions for three or four years in the tax gap where the richest people in britain avoid paying over one hundred billion a year would actually mean these pensions look fairly cheap in comparison. and you

mentioned the private sector and private sector workers say that she the public sector has a very good deal when it comes to pensions a lot better than a lot of private sector provision do you think there's really public support for what you're doing or the opinion polls seem to tell us already a majority of people actually believe the public sector pensions are important arriving at the right level should even be higher that's incredible when you think of the propaganda we've had over the last two years from politicians in the media telling everybody the public sector pensions are the cause of people's problems my master's to private sector workers because they're being exploited by their shareholders and by the company chiefs not by public sector workers pensions and we should have a campaign that seeks to drive all pension levels up not down to the worst. what would you accept in terms of pension reform i personally believe that it is not acceptable to make anyone to pay a penny more for their pension when the valuation of public sector pension schemes say they're costing less because that's not about pensions it's about raising taxes to solve the deficit i don't believe people should be forced to work longer i don't

believe people should have the levers of their pensions slashed so where we are in the talks at the moment unless the government fundamentally accept they have to talk about those things then i believe the industrial action is going to take place you have said in fact that the government doesn't like it's prepared to negotiate so what's the point of striking. when the point is to change your mind and saying you won't negotiate just when they're having a chat with a few people in a room is one thing saying you won't negotiate when there could be millions of people taking strike action is entirely another we actually believe that the six million trade unionists plus the thousands and thousands or hundreds of thousands of pensioners and students all becoming a joint campaign is going to be poetically very powerful we've already seen in britain a march of one hundred five hundred thousand people transform the political mood in this country. but what could strikes actually do how exactly do you think.

changed the political is transformed in that it was on the front page of the newspapers it was on every t.v. station it gave people. a small community and i have a small. for example keeping a library they understood they were part of a much much wider problem and i think that's given us confidence to move from a march to a strike so it's clearly transforming people's confidence but the opinion polls clearly are shifting whereas a majority before said they oppose strikes now in the most recent polls a majority says they are sympathetic to the crisis that we're seeing in the main it was called. reckless financial services sector do you think there is political will now to create a more responsible banking community. or i would always question whether the exist when the. twenty three multi-millionaires and when they have members themselves who have benefited in the past by playing fast and loose with. all the go clearly not

morrow therefore i don't actually believe there is a political will of this government to actually ensure that the rich should pay for the problems that the rich caused but the banking sector should pay for the problems the banking sector caused and as we're doing this interview members on fifteen thousand pounds a year struggling to make ends meet the holidays facing having their pensions slashed when they see bankers who are already million trousering millions more in bonuses that's got to be fundamentally unfair since the crisis began britain has entered into a new war in a foreign country and recently. said he needed more money to sustain a campaign in libya. do you think there is a moral vacuum in westminster that causes these kinds of things to happen that the government would cut spending and to enjoy another war abroad while i think there isn't any politico consistency quite clearly we have been told that. everything

that we hold dear has to be slashed and yet we can still talk about renewing trident and fighting wars overseas irrespective of the cost my own view is that the war in afghanistan and the current war in libya are all wrong they misjudged what people claim there are about and we should actually find a way out of those pretty quickly not make the situation in those countries worse as well as at the same time take valuable resources that could go into schools and hospitals and finally you opposite number at unison the country's biggest union is stressing this wave of industrial action that. are you prepared to join us we want more and more people to be involved not because we want to be on strike because we want the government to set up and take notice so i very much welcome the comments of practice in unison and we want to work very closely with him and all the other trade unions in britain to ensure that when working people are making a protest the protest is this hard hitting as possible because it's designed to get the government to change their minds not so welcome thank you very much.

hungry for the full story we've got it for. the biggest issues get the human voice face to face with the news makers. with the end of the war and going away of the soviet union many people thought that nuclear weapons disappeared. the risk is not zero that something might be going off by mistake especially a lot of nuclear weapons on hair trigger alert. the pacific and to use it as a threat as an actual weapon you know if you keep spinning a trillion dollars a year on weapons of actually you're going to blow everybody up you you know people are dying from these weapons but until we actually see it people don't wake up to.

nuclear weapons are built. that represents all of the firepower of the second world war and this. is the equivalent firepower of the world's nuclear arsenal today. forty two thousand americans die each year from car accidents it's only a thousand posts seven hundred thousand people murdered and thirty two thousand will kill themselves cancer in all its forms kills five hundred sixty thousand of us here part disease is even more devastating it chills over eight hundred seventy thousand americans every day here. in the observed nature of the un discover its beauty. in the.

why. that turned out and i'll add to that that if i know what they are or. who she couldn't make it all the way to final but they would play the italian pair of mini gutty and she chalabi the bronze medal home the chinese would easily take the first cent they started in the second to regain their composure when it mattered most to take the decider and seal first place. for the main event of the day so the reigning world champions let the sun giuliana from brazil take on the current and big gold medal is misty may and carry walsh of the u.s. saying. the american jew have been in the best of form with here. but the hit back brilliantly to seal the one sided margin straight sense and gain a much needed confidence boost for the london olympics just round the corner i think that's what's driving us right now you know and i know i think about it every turn mary damn training but i'm not overlooking anything now but be
