flared up. these are the images girls world has been seeing from the streets of canada. trying to operations or rule the day. the first lap of egypt's parliamentary poll sees the highest turnout ever while the haze of uncertainty still hovering over the you action with authorities slow to deliver the results. no way out germany's angela merkel admits europe's debt crisis is here to stand as leaders and their hopes on yet another last minute deal to stave off a financial meltdown. and a legal loophole in the u.k. allows thousands of foreign criminals to stay in the country convicted rapists murderers and paedophiles use it to escape just punishment and to partake.

of the russian capital you're watching our t.v. joshie welcome to the program egyptian officials say turnout for the opening round of parliamentary elections has been the highest ever in the country since the pharoahs follows a two day delay in publishing the outcome and the results still failed to paint a full picture where the vast majority of candidates now set to go into a runoff. sums up the latest from the polls. as we've heard from the electoral commission is that voter turnout stood at sixty two percent this means that some many egyptians turned out to cost their ballots and while this figure is high it is still to all be expected seventy percent voter turnout that was earlier predicted not each vote the ballots were for individual candidates and one was for political process as far as the individual candidates go here no candidate had an out white majority which means that many of them will have

a runoff next week when it came time for the head of the electoral commission to announce how the political parties have done he simply said to quote him they had run out of gas and he called a press conference. and at this stage though we. we are hearing eliminate any suggestions we have been receiving we do put the muslim brotherhood political party the freedom and justice party post position in second position is the ultra conservative the leftist party old nua now this party has indicated that it stands to push for stricter religious codes and then in third position is a coalition of egyptian and liberal parties who according themselves the egyptian bloc not if indeed the strain continues because remember of course that this is just the first phase of what will be a three phase election only for the lower house of parliament and only after that will be an election for the the house of parliament that indeed is the same

continues it does do the religious parties a huge mandate by which to govern the country there are those critical questions that have not yet been answered and these are just how much power this new parliament will have and indeed just how much power the army is willing to hand over the use of prime minister kemal guns already has started naming his new cabinet but included in that naming is at least a dozen ministers from the previous government who will be holding the same positions included in it is the same foreign minister the same information minister and we're now hearing from egyptian state television that the full cabinet will be named on saturday just reinforces what people here is we have been saying from the beginning and that is that the army if you're serious about handing over power that this appointment of kemal al gonzales was just merely windows dressing that we've seen much of the same names and players in the new government despite the fact that country has said that he has powers to act independently and that he would not have

taken the position if he did not believe in the army's commitment to hand over power thirty here into here where people are hearing that it is very much the same names that are going to be part of this new government it just reinforces. they've been saying all along and that is that the army needs to step down and step down immediately well as the reporting there from cairo and paul is also helping you to keep your finger on the pulse of the latest developments in egypt through her twitter stream and one of her latest tweets she says that activists. are certain the current law is only temporary and that's things will heat up again.

the u.n. human rights council has passed a resolution condemning gross violations in syria the decision is based on a recent report detailing abuses during the government crackdown on protesters and urges the broader un to take appropriate action as special investigator has also been appointed to monitor how the government copes with the young dressed in the country russia and china were among those who voted against the resolution moscow says the u.n. report which led to the vote wasn't fully objective and the international community is hearing only biased accounts of what's happening in the country. what we're gong to understand is that. if that can be done in yemen that cannot apply to cd c.d.'s imo from the outset the message which has been set up from some quarters capitals is there no way to help those who go into dialogue they should stop it

immediately that there is no future in the arab league initiative we believe that this is something very counterproductive and this is something which has exacerbated the situation in syria but what can be a general attitude and principle is that the international community is not there to smell blood. found confrontation but the international community is there to prevent further bloodshed to encourage encourage what this is what the united nations is about this is what the security council is about i mean already our u.n. representatives say there's more than enough evidence to leave no doubt about brutalities by syrian authorities against protesters but some critics believe moscow had grounds to question the international take on events in moscow is for might question the conclusions in this report this report needs to be approached in the same way that a court of law would approach it with impartiality each state needs to be analyzed

and also in particular the sources need to be scrutinized and if we do that with this report we're saying that the testimonies based on some of the syrian opposition people who have rested interest in seeing the town for president assad so i don't believe any significant should be attached to these findings and of course it's not the first time we've seen such reports we saw such reports regarding kosovo we saw them regarding iraq we saw them because they are libya and they've been proved to be completely incorrect. you're watching live from moscow also coming up later in the program for you bill down the wall it's two decades since the soviet union collapsed but the pressure on the russian speaking minority in a stony and shows no signs of easing community members say they will never give up the fight for their basic rights.

what do you think. over the global holiday getaway the resident asks people to weigh up their seasonal preferences shopping versus news. the euro crisis is here to stay and there's no way around it so says german chancellor angela merkel warning that it'll take years to solve the blogs debt ridden economic woes her words akko a growing desperation in the e.u. as we your economy struggle against a looming default amid an unprecedented credit squeeze earlier the european central banks lot of the blocks financial institutions with extra cash which are themselves being starved of money by fleeing investors leaders now pin their hopes on a last minute deal at a eurozone summit next week in the hope that germany will put its economy on the line to bail out the e.u. five again from the european school of management and technology believes that will only happen if they give up their sovereignty to berlin. the european nations have to face either they'd like to have the european currency and they had by definition

requires in the end a fiscal union and that requires transfer of national sovereignty. if there is something that is too far for for some countries then i think it's logical to opt out of the euro structure i think that's what we now see is basically it's coming to the surface the problems of the creation of the euro as a currency and now they try to fix it and actually some countries have to face tough decisions on that in ways that have been unthinkable so far and i'm going back to its right to point out that there are no easy fixes for the for the current crisis meanwhile british pm david cameron has blasted the french and german plan for a bureaucratic make over saying their dreams everything would help the situation and according to robert oulds director of the brewers group policy center his stance is also hypocritical david cameron was concentrating on the british economy in trying

to get the economy moving within the united kingdom and for him to be calling for fiscal union is a great mistake the u.k. has already contributed seven billion to arland nine billion to help with greece and this is costing the british taxpayer money that is deeply unfair and something that britain can't actually afford to do in the situation in britain is a great deal of debt in britain and the british government is having to borrow money from the financial markets on the one hand the british government is telling banks to loan out more money on the other hand the british economic policies but banks are not to be loaning out money to build up their reserves so there's a great deal of confusion at all levels not only within the european union but also within british economic policy. in the u.k. even a mermaid not provide enough of a reason to support a foreign criminal a loophole in the law has turned the country into an asylum for many immigrants have committed serious offenses laura smith reports the right to a family life is not an absolute right and it must not be used to drive

a coach and horses through our immigration system. article eight an innocuous sounding element in the human rights act but which means having children can stop illegal immigrants being kicked out of britain no matter what they've done pull houston knows what it's like to have your family destroyed his twelve year old daughter amy was killed in a hit and run by an iraqi who was banned from driving cross in iraq mr abraham the driver of the car the runner or. encourage on the card or on the apollo the car and . she became trapped under the wheels of the car. he basically for the saying in a letter to a guy trapped under the wheels of the old car amy's killer asso mohammed abraham already had a string of minor convictions even before he moved her down and fled but because he

subsequently fathered two children by a british woman he still lives in the u.k. it's article eight that keeps him here oddly enough it was one of these that catapulted the issue into the headlines the home secretary seizing on claims that an illegal bolivian was allowed to stay in this country because of the emotional trauma of separating him from his pet not quite true but it got people talking and noticing much more serious cases including a rapist who successfully argued asylum his social life and a killer who lived with his parents in may this year it was revealed that nearly four thousand foreign criminals were set free from detention centers because it was decided they couldn't be deported within a reasonable time among them dozens of rapists murderers and paedophiles separately last year nearly six hundred people use the human rights act to avoid deportation

the vast majority citing the right to a private and family life in the case of amy's killer a series of bungles and delays by the authorities meant that by the time eva haim came up for deportation he appeared to have created a family despite flimsy evidence about his parenting intentions he was allowed to stay yet she would rights campaigners argue britain's status as a haven for the persecuted is sacred these are very hard back hundreds of years they're they're embedded in international law you know that we have two options in the aftermath of the second world war so make sure that we always. going to go into society and those interests that we help to. through a grieving father like pull that's missing the point what we have a special we articulate human rights facts we have criminals terrorists. drug dealers oh using the human rights i feel to hide behind and so on to stone

contra. problem where new genuine asylum seekers of all think anybody else but what we don't want to see is we don't see people abuse and what's wrong i think not what needs to be addressed amy was pulls only child he now lives alone spending his time campaigning against ossicles eight and wondering why the rights of his daughter's immigrant killer outweigh his own smith. well don't forget now we have our website r.t. dot com where the latest news comments and videos are just a click away and here's some of what's waiting for you there. raise your eyes are no longer a threat to russia as it launches the space to fans troops but their main focus remains on earth with an all seeing eye turned to u.s. missile the fan system in europe. and have the upcoming parliamentary elections in

some revelations on who manipulates the dark matter of fraudulent shares in the us the full program is coming up at nine thirty g.m.t. but here's a quick preview. hank paulson is in the news at the quick headline from michelle doc here treasury secretary henry paulson tipped off prominent hedge funds regarding fannie mae while telling the u.s. senate and the general public a different story yes i was right. hank paulson. when we had a chance when thirty percent of corporate profits the as the case of the us or in britain thirty percent or higher i my calculation is closer to sixty percent of the corporate profits come from a corrupt banking sector run by capita dicaprio's like hank paulson you're not going to get any progress in jumpstarting your economy like the galaxy in the

cosmos itself some speculate that the dark matter and dark energy is greater than the visible world that we live in this is true of the financial frauds on wall street the amount of frauds greater than what we see on a day to day basis hank paulson has got of like the einstein of fraud he's taken the entire concept of breaking the law and walt applied it time as a cold fish and of his own corrupt soul he's certain times in. the morning renowned worthier uncompromising policies to banish all signs of some of the legacies tony and officials are pushing harder and harder on the country is still vast russian speaking community the minority that's long been threatened with a mother tongue band now plans to find to the bitter and for language freedom here's. a russian speaking fisherman catches a magic fish it promises to fulfill all his wishes it is still money and but he

does not understand the language and he dumps it. this social and urges the russian minority in a studio to learn as stony and in a rather amusing fashion the reality is no joke at all. old state officials are obliged to know the estonian language in the course of their work this is written in our language law it also applies to people working in the majority of public services. just like other post soviet baltic states estonia has its own language inspection the body which oversees how the language law is being observed at times laying it down quite harshly the language inspection has the legal right to conduct spontaneous checks on anyone working in any sphere and should a person fail this tony language exam the body may then initiate the sacking of this employee human right activists say this has turned a language inspection into a punitive body it is not that they have nothing to say it's just that they believe

their voices are being silenced estonia's three hundred thousand strong russian minority has been protesting at what they describe as the language inquisition some of these people either lost their jobs or are on their threat of doing so because they are forbidden from speaking their native language soonish of the so often cursed soviet power never applied any restrictions on languages the stoniest were free to educate in their language nowadays the authorities have almost banned the russian language from schools besides some russian communities don't have qualified teachers who can teach physics or chemistry in a stone ian in the latest twist five workers at an orphanage were fired for not being able to speak a story into the children that's in a town where ninety six percent of the population are ethnic russians. i don't want to sound rude but as long as we leave in this country we have to leave by the lord and i fired those people because they had been warned but did nothing. human rights

activists acknowledge the rule of the law but stress that in the language case it is not applied properly the law doesn't put any difference between we're almost everyone sees russian as their native language and other parts where most of the people speak a stone and with such disproportion we can talk of direct language discrimination and indirect ethnic discrimination because activists in another baltic states have been gathering signatures and holding a referendum to make russian the second state language and many say they have a strong chance of pushing it through a stone despite being criticized by amnesty international for its language policy is adamant and it seems the russian minority would not catch the magic fish granting their wish anytime soon. see reporting from thailand in a story. now take a look at some other stories from around the world one person was killed and two
