ten pm tuesday evening here in moscow this is r.t. coming to live with me kevin no in our top story after the protest now the political panic a flurry of meetings have been held among palestinian leaders today jolted into action by massive demonstrations that turned violent thousands to a furious at the rising prices of basic goods skirmished with riot police across the west bank. explains what's driven people to extremes. palestinian authority ministers are meeting to discuss ways of easing the economic situation of the ordinary palestinians across the west bank this was the source of demonstrations on monday which turned violent in the cities of hebron and nablus when dozens of youths burnt tires and blocked streets that dovetails with

a strike by municipal workers by taxi drivers as well as by those involved in the public transport sector people are really protesting against the rising cost of basic commodities you just need to look at fuel which has gone up by some five percent in recent times the palestinian authority is fast losing legitimacy amongst its own people this western backed government though has its hands tied because israel collects taxes on behalf of the palestinian authority at the same time while israelis can sell goods to palestinians they in turn cannot sell goods to his rabies so you have a situation where the palestinian economy is being held hostage by the israeli government and there's very little that the palestinians can do without the israelis giving their nod now the israelis are also eyeing with concern this growing discontent in the west bank and this is because they fear that it could result in the third intifada or third palestinian uprising against television to

this end we have been hearing some reports that there are those within the israeli government that are urging tel aviv to hand over money to the palestinian authority quickly to hand over tax collection money despite the fact that it is only supposed to happen at the end of the month but it is questionable whether or not this is going to ease the tensions within the palestinian or forty we know there that government employees have not received to date more than hoff of the august salaries the arab spring which took place in so many neighboring states here until now has bypassed the palestinian population but this does not mean that they aren't real schisms within palestinian society particularly over the rising. cost of living. in israel coming up later in the program tonight the european central bank tries to hand itself a promotion and some velda plan under which the eurozone biggest financial institutions but i'm not selected officials put to the bankers in brussels got a lot of comment on that hopefully coming up and more victims of time are we hear

about a culture of death in suspicious circumstances of money detainee's many of whom face no charges. but they're still new to creep by russia's president president putin's put energy giant gazprom under state protection is facing an anti monopoly probe by the e.u. but company officials say they're just attempts to push down gas prices it is a gold has been off explains more. gas from isn't only an energy giant it's a strategic state company a worldwide known brand with the billions of assets thousands of kilometers of infrastructure massive resources and great influence on the russian economy it doesn't only supply millions of russians with energy but millions of western europeans as a while since dust from works with most members of the european union and according suits chief spokesperson said for decades has been able to successfully do business with western european borders but now it's experiencing political pressure at first

these searches around a year ago and his daughter companies now this anti monopoly investigation held by the european commission which is actually a political body getting involved in business related issues and basically of this a decrease signed by the president on tuesday is aimed at protecting companies like gazprom and is a proportion of the answer given to the situation and from now on all the question is of that you will be enough towards me have to gazprom will have to be addressed directly to the state benefit giant is being accused of being a monopoly but there are really a many other energy companies out there on the market it's a free choice for any consumer to decide which company they want to work with whereas it's not a free choice when it comes to the price of gas it does depend on market conditions and on the price of oil and according to gas bomb using political pressure for it to lower its gas prices is very likely that it's going to be effective but gas from

says that it's still ready for business dialogue with its partners. your post can offer a portal for a closer look at how this decree could affect russian companies doing business abroad we want you to watch our business bulletin it's a bit later also we're looking at what's to come to a waste of revolutionary fervor we look a bit later at how some of egypt's services have suffered after the chaos of last year's revolt with rubbish piling up on the streets of the capital also teaches walk out of american classrooms early in the school gear that star strike over paying conditions for american parents off to teach their children home. britain could be facing decades of stagnation sparked by the government's a stereotype blunders so says one of the u.k.'s most prominent union leaders brendan barber of the trades union congress and his r.t. sarah first reports next the warning signs are all there. britain is being cursed towards an economic nightmare of decades long stagnation that's according to trade

union leader brendan barber now he's called on the government to change course that's failed austerity drive now the trade unions congress represents more than six million which his workers and secretary general brendan barber has accused the conservative prime minister david cameron and chancellor george osborne of knowing very little of the person beyond the wealthy west london districts where they live he also said that their insistence on austerity is not going to affect the wealthy in these areas but it's going to be the poor he pays the price now he also spoke stratospheric inequality between the rich and the poor in britain we've come to one of the wealthier areas in london where we've come to the local church now the church here provides a twice weekly feed banks service that's given a service to people who are struggling to afford even the bare essentials we come to meet the woman he once it does

a bit more about this growing divide between the rich and the pool this is of vital importance people who are using the service if they weren't coming here they wouldn't have any food to put on their plate we have. community situations to them haven't eaten for days or longer but my clients are really feeling the pinch when it comes to food bills are rising people's rising tricity course gas costs everything is getting more expensive more than a hundred percent increase in the number of people who are using the food banks service in the last year and that's a huge increase this is the other side of person and with britain in the midst of a recession as more families struggle with rising food prices rising fuel prices and cuts to benefits it seems that services like the food bank are going to become ever more essential surface r.t. london. the biggest banks across the eurozone no longer going to be answering to governments but to other bankers according to

a new plan to be unveiled tomorrow the blueprint would give the european central bank the power to oversee and regulate the largest financial hubs of the single currency block and losing would be national governments and the justification is that it will be easier to manage crisis situations if it's all handled by a single authority while this plan then they speak to financial adviser and wealth manager mark appear to poly's joining us on the line from london tonight there what do you make of this move with this news that's come out is the e.c.b. an organization run by a group of unelected bankers let's face it the right body to oversee national banks . probably probably much better than a lot of the european governments will will do and also it is an issue of the fat but. he's trading under this one big currency and as always he says the system risks and rule race which perhaps a good to be monitored. on the european basis but really what this is fundamentally

about is trying to decouple the banking system from the sovereigns which is being a fundamental part of this crisis and the idea would be that it's dull sovereigns that are responsible for bailing out banks but more. central european level would help but it will send. the whole situation in terms of fighting this crisis it's a good idea but it doesn't really get down to the fundamental problems of the euro is. fantastic to have all this in place for future crises but it doesn't was all this fundamental situation that we have a president so he cheats so you know just so can the greeks sleep easier tonight on this news all know than by the sounds of it. i think the greeks are. far beyond the kind of problem president what i'm trying to say is that if this

doesn't address the fundamental problem. which is slow economic growth that is imbalances between the different countries a difference of productivity there's too much government debt there's massive budget deficits. and it doesn't really get to the core of the problems is a step in the right direction but it doesn't really get to the core of the problem there's a lot of public about it around if i got this right i mean brussels the c.p.a. would also the ability to shut down any one of up to six hundred european banks decide on who can set up a new bank licensing system that's the outline plan. yeah i don't think that's necessarily a bad thing i think. we're going to face supervision on the european basis with instill confidence in the system. and would be a much better way of monitoring the situation on a much larger pashmina but

a lot of the banks actually trade across number of different jurisdictions it's difficult necessarily for one government to supervise all operations of banks. think it's just like that in forget it six thousand bugs talk about six hundred to two different websites saying two different things what about the sovereignty issue it doesn't seem like member states have a whole lot of say in this or they consulted. the course everybody is being consulted them i'm a bit of crisis fighting. and you keep going from one meeting to another sort of stuff and taking small little steps towards further integration but what needs to be done is is full fiscal integration and he says it's it's great but it's the only way he can to get a solid you know even forward he's got us to a stadium sovereignty and more fiscal integration it's the only why that is going

to happen and. having further banking integration the economy. can't be done any of the right things you thought speciated mark appeared to follow their financial advisor wealth manager on the line. in mates who have recently come of hunger strikes become the ninth detainee to die in the scandal ridden facility the prisoner was allegedly kept in complete isolation of being unruly though he was needed being charged nor being prosecuted and run dos and co-author of why peace and contributed so what really happened told us we may never know how he died. it's going to be very hard to get to the bottom of it as to why as for why he wasn't released when he hasn't been charged with anything we may never know he may have been a victim of torture or witnessed torture or any number of things that the us wouldn't want to get out earlier in two thousand and six we had three so-called suicides where people had rags stuffed in their mouths and also were hanged which is

a little suspicious to suffocate yourself with a rag and also hang yourself and we know one of the methods of torture is dr boarding where rags are stopped in prisoners miles and they are taped where this person died of suicide or not we're not going to know because he's categorized as an enemy combatant which is essentially a human being with no rights and as an american i'm completely shamed out because it's completely unconstitutional. the un human rights chief said the both sides in the syrian conflict we share the blame for repeated violence another pillay condemn the government's use of heavy weapons while the rebels she said should be held accountable for extra judicial execution and torture but as tells from some reports and some foreign powers are turning a blind eye to the crimes committed by a group. the new joint u.n. arab league special envoy to syria has been tasked with trying to broker a peace plan to wendy in two month long conflict in syria has just called this task quote unquote nearly impossible now this is

a different set to the stand he took when he first stopped the job he was optimistic in the beginning of thinking that he could help pave the way for peace between the warring sides in syria also heard from the u.n. secretary general ban ki-moon has condemned the assad regime for all the atrocities they were committing against the syrian people but also the rebel groups and the condemning both sides saying that the choosing of violence and force rather than we've also heard. very few men rights and how we can live with the past has been a staunchly critical of the assad regime and blaming condemning the regime for their treatment of their actions in this conflict but she's also come out and spoke against the rebel groups and any other groups armed groups that have been committing atrocities against the syrian people she said that all sides should be held responsible for all their actions believe her from the u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton as well as french president francois along both expressing their support for the syrian rebels france has already been sending aid

to three rebel regions in syria as of recent weeks now with a lack of consensus from the international community on how to approach the situation as well as conflicting messages on whose side is responsible for the atrocities the support that is being given out to one side versus another it's not hard to understand why block marber he has been calling his task now as nearly impossible still ahead in the program as syria's neighbors are suffering on rest of the road the deadly suicide bombing of a police station. as experts say a spike in bloodshed is a high price to pay for interfering in. this class warfare in the united states has nothing to do with social status teachers that are walking out of the thousands demanding better paying conditions at a school see a marked decline in stuff and standards more whole families are taking the concept would. explain. yellow buses and
