a scene from egypt to here square. nearly eight hundred protesters were trapped cuffed arrested and jailed as thousands of activists continued their second week of occupy wall street demonstrations a grassroots movement is campaigning against social inequality and corporate influence over u.s. politics in the interim police conduct against peaceful protesters has come into question. just last week a new york city police officer attacked occupy wall street protesters with pepper spray prompting public outrage and an internal affairs investigation many believe there will be another dramatic confrontation this weekend after what happened last weekend after four women were pepper sprayed while they were corralled by the police after the n.y.p.d.
7:03 am
used heavy handed tactics punching some protesters i think many people didn't expect that there would be something like that again this weekend though i have heard no reports of pepper spray being used there were thousands of people stopped and hundreds arrested arrested activists were charged with disorderly conduct and summons to appear in criminal court. by sunday hundreds appeared back on wall street determined to continue their fight against corporate domination once you are not afraid to be arrested any more the whole enjoy or. the state disappears when that happens there are credible possibilities that are open to us and suddenly you can imagine a different world and you believe you can be an agent of change the group says it aims to raise national awareness and and change. because economic disparity occupy wall street describes itself as a resistance movement inspired in part by its encounter protests we can. believe
7:04 am
our brothers and sisters all over the world arab spring in greece and spain and we can see that it did send a powerful message ordinary people are not going to stand for corporate greed anymore and that we're getting up and we're doing something about it. and the reason these activists are doing something on law street rather than washington is because they say you have to follow the money they get in where the largest campaign contributions donations and lobby groups come from. we were told it was for. four more you know maybe four years old billy. bush. before that is going to see i mean corporate greed goes all the way to the president i think this is where they are going to be impulsive it starts out wall street it is true that these demonstrators come here with. different messages but what is uniting what unifies them is a growing frustration over the u.s. economy social inequality and corporate influence on u.s.
7:05 am
politics these protesters say if american leaders can't act it will be the american citizens that stand up for their rights reporting from wall street or in a fortnight party. both the crackdown on wall street and the way existing financial institutions are sure that u.s. democracy is just an empty phrase was according to u.k. based a press could have just turning. i think we're dealing with people who are absolutely in denial they're not interested in what he ordinary people want and i think this tells us the scales are falling from our eyes this shows us that america is not a democracy they're not listening to what people have got to say and these are ordinary people coming up with their solutions because those people charged with running our financial system have not just made a mess of things they have actually orchestrated that system in their own interest it's absolutely inexcusable for the police to be wading in in a democracy note in a democracy the police do not wading into peaceful demonstrators as they have been
7:06 am
in new york so i think this is another indication that america's democracy is actually failing us that moment is failing the world and it's absolutely not on for them to be going around the world so-called spreading democracy when they haven't even got democracy in their own country you know in their own government institutions they need to be listening to what these people have got to say in the course they're not listening meantime james called an editor of an independent news website says that the main question now is whether the largely supported and the wall street movement is actually going to turn into a strong political force. as we see now of course these protests are not just taking place on wall street but are now starting to spread across the country which is a sign that there really is something going on here that will start to spread even further i see that there could be that possibility of escalation and i would say that the. probably the p.r. win is on the protesters side because no one likes to see the police going in and
7:07 am
breaking up a peaceful protest movements like that and especially now that we're getting reports that the protesters were actually lured onto the bridge and then trapped so it's very interesting to watch how this will play out and i think at this point as i say the protesters there probably are willing to play your game but again i think there is a there is a much larger political movement at stake here and it really does remain to be seen whether there can be some sort of coordinated action on on the on the from the federal reserve in the in a privately owned baking sort of central banking system of the united states. a showcase of public anger is bubbling in the u.k. . the joy of the people who post what i usually go because they're taking tens of thousands of people descend on manchester to take part in a march against government cuts also a little bit later in the program here our c. identity crisis parents and teachers all across france are enraged by new school books that revise historical accounts in the name of political correctness. this is our duty now the greek debt crisis

has taken a sharp turn for the worse as world markets react to athens admission that it won't be able to meet key e.u. mandated deficit deadlines this year and next the revelation signals that shocking a degree of austerity imposed by athens are as people has failed in the economy into an unmanageable contraction it's actually worrying given that e.u. dechen specters in greece are currently deciding on whether to release more bailout funds for the country but its government says that unless it gets the money it won't be able to pay its bills for the. this month to surf earth looks at just where this now puts the embattled nation. greece now to fold that's the million dollar question exact four hundred fifty billion a year a question. that greece now. but that could never be allowed to be soon as you think about greece ever being for granted fifty billion euros of
7:09 am
government there you need to be if you would or or i don't know what. the greek government is running out of options they can keep trying to impose the state they'll start the measures that would likely lead to more of a violent pacifist scene between riot police and protesters in the last week the month or they can instead choose to default the year easing leaders have insisted that the fall is not an option they're concerned that work least a decent it could spark a financial meltdown in the usa but there's now a growing recognition that behind closed doors other options are being considered a good called it's different the cards has been on the cards are for you and a half a crowd because when you have a bit of the exorbitant size that we have here in greece it is impossible to imagine that the steering. and means by which if you say so before was always going
7:10 am
to happen as it is for speculation rumbles on it's become clear that there are fundamental flaws in the euro zone's of gratian i think europe citizens have the right to know what the causes are at the moment they are being reflected from very real causes and they are being asked to blame little greece little greece however idiotic it may have proved in the past he's and never was incapable of spearheading a global financial crisis see just who is to blame what we are experiencing in greece will be. if using new crime for war using international. financial crimes the past eighteen months the greek government has cut wages raise taxes g.'s pensions and in return received billions of year in bailout funds now as they await the next

7:13 am
really answer me was reassuring rock here risk go ahead i want richard in new york to go ahead let me just respond to one thing this notion that governments act as if they are the origin of what they do governments are elected and under enormous pressure from their constituencies and to explain what governments do without and that allies in who's pushing them to do what is a very strange logic. you can watch crosstalk about twenty minutes time right here when i see now russia has a launch another satellite into orbit as part of its global navigation project known as colonus there's no means the system is fully operational can provide total global coverage it's better all about tells us more about the new arrival to the us
