they need to be held accountable in the same way that anybody else would you know court dockets he's a count of lawyers interests meant by the police is by no means unique but the phone hacking scandal has brought stories like his into the public eye revealing bribery and corruption at the heart of the police force it's amazing focus has tended to be on the journalists themselves and not on the allegedly corrupt police officers who have been receiving money to provide protective information but it does show that there's a sort of endemic corruption and a failure of accountability and oversight one or two of the country's most senior police officers have resigned this week and two more are under investigation after relations between news corp and the police were revealed to have been far too cozy senior police officers were wining and dining with members of the murdoch empire they were they were making room for drinks privately one even hired them at a thousand pounds a day to work for him so you know what does this tell us about the relate. between

directing readers to the twitter page it was posted by a group called which previously attacked the fox news and cia home pages when an idea group called anonymous has also been active saying it brought down the times website another made up publication when i was the claims swirl from the gutter press to the top of the establishment there's concern the police of bribery allegations could cloud the investigation. to find out that certain officers had been on the payroll of these organizations and providing details to journalists who were involved in a scandal that in itself is quite a disgrace and it does raise the question of who is properly qualified to to look into this into to form a proper investigation certainly not the police itself investigating itself that would be ridiculous at this point and the idea of a parliamentary inquiry it has to be at least seem to be completely free of ties to the prime minister's office. certainly and to any other m.p.'s who may have been
3:05 am
implicated in the scandal so it's going to be an incredible mess unfortunately for the british people to be sorting through right now and i think trust in the public institutions has been necessarily eroded by this appalling disgraceful conduct on the part of so many different people in who the public has invested so much trust of course there's plenty more in store in our taking cluing og the america's most exclusive campsite around to be born in the woods today you might find the most wealthy and powerful brainstorm explosiveness present at the details. well there's definitely an energy around the talks between russia and germany which get going later on tuesday i'm going to merkel is expected to seek support for her country's move away from nuclear power which could open opportunities for russian gas there's a world of other issues to tackle too from international security to western nations crossing the line on the un mandate in libya you know bushel is in germany

3:07 am
italy and spain germany is the european union's biggest creditor that means it gives more money to the european union than anyone else so there are fears that germany will have to foot the bill russia hopes germany can ring nato round to the point of view of a joint missile defense system in other words that they can avoid the fear that the missile defense will be pointed. there are fears in mosco that the defense system could be aimed at russia or libya germany or russia both abstained from the u.n. vote authorizing nato action in libya and they both want to stop further escalation of the void and that's their own report that nato countries all mean libya's rebels so both countries will be looking to strengthen their already strong relationship one a range of issues on which they share a common position. well on the way i look at an urban exodus find out wanting creasing number greeks going back to the groves and quitting the city's.

circling china politically and militarily for mary moore who's been researching bohemian grove for more than three decades what happens inside is symptomatic of a much larger problem we've all grown up taking civics trying to understand how the world works and we're all told that we elect representatives they go to washington we have total influence over them and they make decisions that are in the best interests of us then we start growing up and if we pay any kind of attention we find out that none of that is true in monterrey california christine for our team. well max and stacy threw a fist at finance in a few minutes in the kinds of reports that some dates are first on the day's business stories with. hello and welcome to business here on our team now we start this hour with hanover where they'll be fuel for thought i'd let a later when russian president dmitry medvedev meets german chancellor angela

3:24 am
the project itself which is very important it takes money to achieve these things but also we are working together on developing a very interesting data center an advanced technology data center that i believe certainly russia has no equal and so we're very excited or cluster ideas developing that together was for a bank so it's a multi level relationship with them. and let's take a look at the markets now crude is on their on is as investors wait for reports could show us inventories declined for a seventh week however concerns about the prospects of global economic recovery are limiting gains asia's shares are down in the last hour of trading uncertainty about the resolution of u.s. and european debt problems is putting pressure on the markets financials were the first to suffer in tokyo no more holdings last more than two and a half percent and the stronger young is also weighed on exporters and it's the same story in hong kong where a heavyweight h.s.b.c.
