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 tended to be on the journalists themselves and not on the allegedly corrupt police officers who have been receiving money to provide protected information but it does show that as a sort of. corruption and a failure. 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 relationship between the police and the news corp. aeration employees well it's very very

a group called lowell which previously attacked the funks news and cia in pages and allied group called anonymous has also been active saying it brought down but times website publication as the claims swung from the gas across the top of the stop list where there's concern the five reallocations could clone their investigation. to find no that certain officers had been on the payroll of these organizations and providing details to to the journalists who were involved in the 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 to 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

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. there with good to have you with us and still ahead this hour rural and skate why greaves the fleeing this season the financial meltdown for a new life and better fortunes in the country family. law is recovery crews try to lift the sunken vessel on the polgar river hopes grow over finding the truth behind the tragedy of one of the brussels poinsettia. israeli commandos have boarded a goals are bound to a chip on the approach to the blockaded territory reporting no resistance from activists on board the french vessel is the last from a ten the strong humanitarian patellar that was prevented from leaving

a greek port three weeks ago course want to pull its planes across about it in israel. just before noon local time today tuesday the friendship which is known as the tail was surrounded by at least three israeli naval ships as it made its way to gaza this is off to the ship and overnight in international waters now we understand that the israeli navy contacted the captain of the ship want him that if you went any further they he would be. breaking israel's blockade on gaza and according to the israeli army they made it quite clear to the ship's captain and the ship's passengers that there were other legal options available to them they're all sixteen people on board the ship ten of them are passengers three of the crew three of them are journalists this is the furthest that any ship so far in this freedom for two to has been able to go in terms of being able to reach gaza now the israelis are at pains not to see
9:07 am
a repeat of what happened last year when you had their feeding through to the one that ensued in which turkish citizens were killed when israeli commandos who wanted the biggest ship they the mavi marmara and they simply do not want to see that happen again so they added pains to try and see this dealt with peacefully and without any kind of loss of lines because many soldiers naval soldiers boarded the ship when it was some seventy kilometers away from gaza and there's no question that the ship was still in international waters it did go off without incident and is being towed to the israeli port city of ashdod according to the israeli army spokesperson they have the passengers on board will be dealt with by the israeli immigration police but the question of just how these really actually was all still remains a very important question there had been at least say put investigative committees that was set up last year to look at how these were the soldiers in that first incident how they dealt with that knowledge the new information once consuls found
9:08 am
them to quote them that the israeli actions have been accurately and later this month we do expect the findings of the second u.n. commission that has already. indicated that why find the israeli blockade on gaza not illegal the israeli soldiers did last year. when you look at the commies from international legal experts they say that when ships are in the high seas there is something such as the freedom of navigation and asked such the israeli soldiers boarding the ship is in fact illegal. well as we've just heard last year's attempt to reach gaza by sea ended up with nine turkish activists killed in a raid by israeli commandos well israel imposed the blockade four years ago when hamas which sees it as a terrorist organization came to power well one of the at least involved. in he says israel sees the futility of an attack against it. it's eluded think infusing to the israeli society because this time it's really on. any it's not.
9:09 am
to be and therefore it's very hard just. to do just that. but in this situation today that israelis are so afraid of any change. in their thought afraid from the whole world for no reason in their eyes. just another attack but after all it's not a fight for for freedom. it's not a fight for. it for defending israel the fight in the occupation is to maintain control over the palestinian people in order to maintain political strength and resources. when you can watch the prince with gaza to that today it's a just over an hour's time here all but of course you can get it right now if you
9:10 am
like on our website that's our common here's what else is available for you want to live in the next challenge is our fault again it's the parents of an eleven year old russian boy who confessed to attacking a passenger plane within days that penn find out what all parties are doing to clamp down on my growing potentially deadly problem. also search and destroy why belgian newspapers copyright round with web giant google has removed the paper from its all the details. trade in energy a feud in talks between russia and germany avraham the demands of europe's biggest economy growing in most cases capable of fracking that. bush has been following days high level meetings for us he joins me now live adonal good to see the president of an chancellor merkel has now addressed the media what was the message
9:11 am
. germany's decision to shut its nuclear stations has opened opportunities for the likes of russia's gazprom because john is hoping to tie up some deals here in hanover which he really sees the german market as a stepping stone to the rest of the european union germany and sees opportunities in russia or in particular the voles. program of russia's infrastructure and quite president dmitry medvedev given the problems in the rest of the eurozone in places like greece oil and also potentially spreading to perhaps and spain they're all the european market may not be providing germany with the same opportunities as before nevertheless president medvedev says he's cautiously optimistic about the future of the eurozone he would like to see more currencies come to the fore a subject that he's raised in the polls there is a particular friendship between. to be treated better perhaps to have the closest partners stage and that was very much present here in the talks today you know
9:12 am
we've heard that president medvedev has been quiz several times about his election . day he said he would be making you know it's a very shortly about whether he would stand for president of russia again and the longer of all the regimes who are also discuss what they like libya they do seem to be very much on the same page over that home. absolutely and richard would have said they shared common views on the whole middle east situation of course both countries abstained russia and germany abstained on the un vote authorizing action for military intervention in libya and the escalation of violence is something of concern to both sides let's have a listen to what president medvedev exactly had to say. so much of it is a loose and you shouldn't even know that there is allusion should not be playing i mean both resolution one thousand nine hundred fifty three and resolution nineteen
9:13 am
seventeen they're ok we supported the first resolution we abstained on the second one but we thought that the resolution will be implemented deploying to what it says a no fly zone there is not a community work but actually instead of a no fly zone what we see is an active phase of civil war and something nurses are actually supporting look like one of the parties to the conflict and that's not good in fact for libya it is a very bad so i think we should continue looking for opportunity to find a peaceful solution to this situation we should use all sorts of mediators and all sorts of opportunities because the libyan problem does not have a military solution but on the story on the issue in your levy's key problem when you. reference the nato mission by several nato states that they are arming libya's rebels and potentially escalating the violence the key thing today's news conference was that the troubles across the middle east which they noted were

taking place between government forces and civil forces as well could not be fuel for an outside force is that something that both sides both russia and germany stressed today how many have. life from her and for us. fortune seeing kids are flocking to big cities in search for a dream job or something familiar with putting grace there were those trend is down taking hold as the financial meltdown triggers a surge and on employment and cuts begin to many people are now the thing for the country signs katherina is out of the med some wiping farmers in the debt stricken country. the birthplace of civilization greece is famous for its ancient ruins among other things those very ruins and the tourists they attract are today almost the only profitable thing in greece as the country totters on the brink of financial ruin. people here are losing all hope of making it through even the ones

9:16 am
a big family something she does anyway with their house right above the shop she can never be late for work and wouldn't change this for anything a city could offer. and many people tired of bottling up their frustrations in the city are making the same choice. since i was living. everybody wants to do the same but they didn't have the money to go since we have a crisis those. people that. they go to their houses. and. to find. them are malays have given after a chance to raise her kids and live her life the way she wants but most greeks are simply energy and a very large percentage of. people who lost their jobs especially

9:19 am
passenger ships to dismantle operate at the last vessel servicing remote areas are subsidized but take it's costing as little as fifty cents a piece but tourists craft up to get city funding to there is no money for a place once. we are just a small company we could never afford to build our own ships i think with good care the existing ships can be used for another fifty years. the owners it says these ships of the latest technical inspections but so too did the bulgaria and that ships had to created emergency alarm was partly blame for the high death toll. some are calling for stricter regulations including the subletting of old ships the small operators but this group like company large respectable company sees that the ship is getting too expensive to repair instead of writing it off they pass it on
9:20 am
to a smaller operators and the smaller outfits are often unscrupulous not how they approach maintenance and have no money for autonomy that not everyone agrees. that if we simply start spending shapes we will lose rivers transport altogether any such measures must go hand in hand with redeveloping the river shipping industry just. bloody mary name is one of the new entrepreneurs this hoping to do just that yet he admits that all those new vessels have declined dramatically following the economic difficulties of the last few years and. this industry is not going to pull itself out of the current crisis for that to happen again the government must take that first step you mean. no but even if it does happen it will take years for the new ships to come on stream really all specially to. get bigger and to stop using it because of safety concerns. well you can be scared of everything so i will carry on
