people to bolster demonstrations across the country over the last month up to three hundred thousand people in tel aviv have been demanding cheaper housing and social justice but authorities paula slim reports there are outsiders in the jewish state fighting a much tougher battle. the protest might be next door to a film on lives but it's going to make little difference to his life he's a refugee from eritrea one of thousands who has found his way to israel but the solace he was hoping for has instead been replaced by anger and frustration at a government he believes is doing too little to help him. israelis here demand cheaper housing is good for them at least they have houses but we have nothing we haven't even got a roof over our heads let alone an expensive one but it's not only cheaper houses that these protesters want they're demanding a new government one that will charge less taxes provide free education and cancel privatization of state owned companies changes that the poorest neighborhoods of

tel aviv need the most but i want people here are not demonstrating while thousands of israelis might be able to pitch up here in protest many immigrants can't even afford to buy a tent to live in people are not sleeping here and necessarily every night but it's a slimeball it's at the dance here hours for for that if you've got the rare for the economic situation. like you say next to us people are sleeping there not because they choose to put their tent outside it is just because they don't have any other place to go in the last few years tens of thousands of refugees and asylum seekers have evolved in israel mostly from him a tree and sudan the government simply doesn't know what to do with him most spend their days struggling to make ends meet while trying not to be picked up by the deportation police many of the refugees don't want to appear on camera but those that we've spoken to say that they don't feel a part of this demonstration and accuse it of being

a protest of the privileged danny parrot's is really he's a builder divorced and jobless he's here because he blames the government for the fact that he can't pay his bills but he also points a finger at the african migrants. and if i want to find something i guess it's a charge the africans are all too familiar with this place we're sitting is a place where very often. big stream right wing organizes the rallies against the right fuji's saw when. a refugee is a see white people are sitting there and they they they feel that they don't belong to that place which means that a protest for social justice has essentially become a protest for only a few. if you really want to come out for better rights you have to come out for

the basic right for the rights of the refugee here in israel. but for now the rights of the refugees are the last thing on these protesters minds they just want a better life for themselves policy r t tel aviv. and israel is expecting more demonstrations this saturday night and we'll be covering those events for you here in our to you can find our previous reports from the tent city on our website also on our facebook page and you can follow tweets from israel on twitter feed.

recent street violence in the u.k. has police and politicians divided over the way the unrest was handled the chaos started last saturday in london and spread across the country over the following four days so far just over a third of the sixteen hundred people arrested have been charged prime minister david cameron was critical over the initial tactics police used to quell the rampant rioting and looting but senior officers hit back saying politicians were no help against the disorder and that their return from the summer holidays made no difference courts are working overnight to deal with alleged offenders and hundreds of extra police are expected to remain on the streets until at least next week cameron has now turned to a former prominent us police chief for advice on handling gang violence jeremy corbin from the u.k. labor party says there's a whole list of measures currently on the table which will only make a bad situation worse. the reason increasing impoverishment of poor young

people particularly in the big cities of this country and it's a very uncomfortable lest know a lot of politicians are that something's got to be done and fast to bring these people these young people back into the mainstream of society there's a very unpleasant agenda surrounding this which david cameron in part is promoting one is that could scale months of social media such as twitter and facebook the other is eviction of whole families from homes because one member of the family has been charged and convicted of an offense to do with the events of the past week and then suggests bringing in water cameron suggests of putting the army on the street all kinds of draconian measures that we have to listen and try and understand not the principles of those people to stealing simply for themselves but the danger to all of us of the very large number of young people who don't feel any any problem

with getting involved in it because they don't feel they have any stake in society as a whole that is a very dangerous thing we've got to learn lessons from repression won't solve it repression will make it worse censorship won't solve it that will make it worse while the blame game is in full swing between those responsible for dealing with the unrest people all around the world are wondering if the same could happen in their country or some of the opinions laurie hoffman of starter wise known as the resident gathered on the streets of the big apple. is your neighborhood next this week let's talk about that it's. inhumane and barbaric and i think that unfortunately around the country we have situations where people are disappointed with leadership and various parts of the world and they're rising up and trying to do something about it and whether you're in the middle east in europe you know fortunately we haven't had that type of unrest here in the

states but i could totally see it happening i think because in taiwan most people have very. light your fire in life so they don't want to have this kind of thing happen but if they were angry enough that what was going on do you think that would push them to the limit. yes yes sometimes like in the election times people are going crazy but they're not to the far like the looting is so horrible and the tries but there were demonstrations in creation but they were peaceful day with the burn the flag you know but they wouldn't break a window and steal from the store you know so why are these british people doing that right now. it's always you know some people started for political reason then that leaves around that break and still you know that's that's what happens and you know in the old days people when they came on hard times just worked a bit harder tried a bit harder and you know sort of if they had hard luck they said i've got hard luck or as now everybody expects everything behind them on the plate you know so if

you go back in history and look at the eight hundred for example you'll see many of the same comments in the newspapers published in that era now with the stream of history writing the same course. so what can we do to change it if anything. not a damn thing whether or not you think looting can happen in your city and the bottom line is the rise of social media and the growing disparity between social classes could be a recipe for violence anywhere. and later in our program we'll be finding out how to become one of the richest men in the u.k. but the story of a russian businessman and join the good life in europe despite knowing the russian government one million dollars. and unwanted side effects the indian government's attempts to support transsexuals is that to some undesirable consequences you can watch our report on that later in the program.

with aftershocks of the u.s. credit rating downgrade still reverberating around the world washington has decided to go after those behind the markdown rating agency stat of them pause along with its parent company and now in the crosshairs of the u.s. securities and exchange commission they're being investigated for overestimating u.s. debt by some two trillion dollars and made much more serious allegations of insider trading use of the downgrade is reported to have linked to certain market power play as hours before it became official and its financial analysts called an injury explains it's likely to lead to a much wider crackdown on rating agencies. the path that probably doesn't begin or end with an s. and p. my guess is the investigation is going to find if it's not just an arm waving to show that there were some extra all parties but had nothing to do with s. and p. made a great deal of money on friday there is clearly

a political element to those if you know downgrades coming in you short the market prior to that you could make a great deal of money that is the serious concern that we get weeks within the system like there's a good question in regards to why have an insider trading been investigated in the general sense lehman brothers for example was known by some other card counter party to be functionally bankrupt for some time prior to when they went under and yet nobody at the federal reserve or the new york fed or anyone else bothered to say anything to anybody. in the late forty's and early fifty's when the iranian boom was in full swing in the us numerous mines mushroomed in parts of arizona but when the mall and dried up the facilities were abandoned leaving an environmental hazard in their wake and as marina portnoy reports radiation poisoning now threatens the area's few remaining indigenous people. this ne part of arizona a compass is part of america's navajo nation native american governor territory
