hello thank you for joining r.t. where we bring you the latest news on screen and online on karen. well you can as prime minister and scotland's leader have signed a historic deal paving the way for a referendum on breaking away by the end of twenty fourteen r.t. sarah ferguson and borough. prime minister david cameron met here in edinburgh today with first minister alex salmond they signed that memorandum of understanding ahead of the referendum for scotland's independence it will be held in the autumn of twenty forty now that is going to focus around a single question is the prime minister said today is that the biggest question of all will be set to assert for scotland all a united kingdom now that this is being used in the coming lot of wrangling lots of consultations but now all sides are going to be able to gay forward and they're

going to be wanting to set forth their arguments to the scottish public about whether or not scotland should indeed be independent the polls often around a quarter of people actually full independence but you know it really is two years until that actual vote will be held it's an incredibly turbulent climate is the moment they campaign for keeping still in within the union will say they said what is to say there's nothing to worry about the majority in scotland want to remain within the union but you know it is old still to play for here and maybe was busy taking a bit of a gamble because they dropped that little option the devaluation max the options that perhaps more powers to be had to stall and that was to look there's no middle ground it really is one question it's all or nothing and you know possibly there'll be a lot of people here in scotland who are maybe on the fence he will say well ok we

might not have wanted all of that we might have wanted to remain within the house but actually we don't want to be left with nothing if we are still going to remain you can see a very interesting couple of years of fist fighting at the back of the school and begun more and now says let's now talk to linda fabiani who is a member of the scottish parliament from the scottish national party her mother linda now really with the referendum will certain motion how do you see the yes and no campaigns developing in the next. two years i think a really interesting is a very very exciting time for scotland and that everyone has to lay out their style and be up to us who believe in independence those who believe that scotland can be a better country if its independent mixes soon decisions we shall put our case and just scottish people i met such other also want people to vote no matter the seeming actually sleep it's up to them to prove their case for stealing the union and by the feel scotland and scots would be big check in england and the united

kingdom that mean they're part of it rather than an independent country who's a good neighbor now why has the second question that is giving more powers to the scottish parliament instead of independence been deleted from the referendum well i wasn't a higher value girl she's in team scottish national party has always believed that it's independence what is best for scotland and i would prefer position is that the question has no independence there was a lot of people in scotland who felt that there should be another option because it diva lives for the last hour and they were preaching the case forward it would seem that that's was not the cost of the negotiations but you talk to asked members of the negotiating team so not on her well linda do you actually think scotland will be able to support itself on its own i don't think there's any question that all of that is very interest and that the new parties to the conservatives the labor plant

in the three german plants they are no longer seeing scotland couldn't make it but they are saying is of course scotland can be a viable independent nation that argument was one sometime ago in the people is that scotland pursued and the united kingdom and then we paid we believe that a lot of the money in this process but that argument started spectrum just like clearly people will be in a bind. six. scene and seventeen year olds will be given the right to vote in the referendum how much do you think will this impact the outcome. i think i'll be very interested in you know sixteen seventeen year olds like any other huge group will make their own minds up so that has also alkies to be put to the women and we won't need that case we did our party policy thoroughbred over ten years know that the franchise should be extended to sixteen seventeen year olds for all elections under five will be an equal chance scottish parliament election to local boards we have

extended the franchise to include sixteen seventeen year olds so far as it's just that we should be out just like everyone else they will make their minds up who listen to their arguments you come to them and lucian's and very briefly now on the other side of things you have scots living in other parts of the u.k. and they will not be able to vote in a referendum how fair do you think that is. you know what's been said in the agreement is that those who have are literally just and would be eligible to vote and ask questions complementary election will be the ones who can vote in that if it indeed i think that's fear those who are living in scotland recruiting all right linda fabiani member of these guys parliament from the scottish national party thank you for your time as. the e.u. has slapped the syrian government with fresh sanctions it comes as claims emerged that soviet era cluster bombs are being used by assad forces moscow says that

cannot be confirmed because the region is being flooded with illegal weapons from abroad arches peter all over has the details. human rights watch the new york based watchdog has said this following what they've seen in a online video that soviet era cluster bombs were being used by the syrian government against the civilian population in syria and the ongoing conflict there now russia has rebuffed these claims wholeheartedly with them to you and you there are plenty of weapons in the region right now with huge amounts being supplied illegally to syria and neighboring countries are there immersed in reason for in trainers in the conflict zone you mean this has been confirmed by independent media through the region is flooded with domes we use it's very hard to determine where they're all coming from the alleged cluster bombs just said to be from the soviet era we can come to terms with some countries on regulating their production of soviet technology without a license to kill so there's plenty of things that need to be sorted out. also to

get a lover of was giving his address he reiterated russia's stance which hasn't changed since the conflict first started over a year ago which is that they want to see both sides lay down their weapons they want a peaceful solution through dialogue so that stance is being backed up by the current joint u.n. and arab league peace envoy lakhdar brahimi now he took over the job from kofi annan you remember he's currently on a tour of the region trying to convince syria's neighbors to stop pushing for both sides to lay down and comes to the table and come to the table for talks all of this comes against the backdrop of a further round of sanctions that have just been signed off on by the european union on syria. turkey says it will intercept all syria bound flights carrying dubious cargo has already grounded an armenian plane taking aid to aleppo and searched its cargo for possible military equipment and last week

a syrian passenger jet was stopped for allegedly carrying russian made nationals for government forces moscow said the cargo was legal electronic equipment for radar stations manual oxon writer editor in chief of a german news magazine says turkey is violating the law. it's a complete procreation syria about not serious also procreation well cohorts of peace in the middle east region and so. the more the civil life in general or more charity does right now this is this complete program again it's not new with the billions going from western countries from gulf states to the syrian rebels we are not discussing about the whore material we're not discussing about the weapons that i'm going issue and of course the communication technology which is the letter to the to the rebels in syria by other governments you know we are discussing now about two planes intercepted by purity and this should be international affairs so

you see this is what the u.s. government is doing there it is part of the program or we witness it since a long time a british man who happen to the pentagon ten years ago is set to find out his fate on tuesday washington has been seeking his extradition and if found guilty gary mckinnon who suffers from mild autism could spend sixty years behind bars as artie's laura smith reports his family fears he could take his life if you stepped off to the u.s. . gary mckinnon smothered janice has been up all night working to get everything in order to convince the home secretary not to deport her mentally ill son to trial in america it's ten years since the u.s. demanded gary's extradition the hacking into the pentagon's computers from his north london bedroom he's mildly autistic and doctors say a very real suicide risk gary would not survive five minutes and that say agreed by

so many top a psychiatrist and doctors do we really should a somebody with a mental condition who is suicidal and his emotionally to a child does a. civilized country do this surely not but there may be a light at the end of the town. the home secretary has until october the sixteenth to decide whether she'll block the extradition gary's mother has high hopes as does his lawyer who wouldn't give up if the worst happens to have been to the supreme court twice we've been to the house of lords we've been to the high court so you know there's we've exhausted every possible vehicle charm we challenge we can because as they would seem all absolutely sure and convinced that if would commit suicide so we're talking about man's life we're told no has built a successful practice on fighting water is seen as one sided extradition rules in

the treaty with the us the americans must only show reasonable suspicion if they want to extradite a briton compared with probable cause going the other way the result nine times more britons have been extradited than americans it's a treaty that even david blunkett the home secretary here is signed it in two thousand and three admits was a mistake it's now under review but so far it's just words also just talk has been prime minister david cameron and his deputy nick clegg's the ports but gary mckinnon both were loudly on his side while in opposition but after two and a half years in power there's been no action all the while the case is rob two forty five year old gary of almost a quarter of his life and taken a potentially irreversible toll on his health is beginning to wonder who is real and who isn't he says it's like there's

a veil between him and the world and sometimes actually feels that it's just not real gary used to say co used to swim music he signed if gary had been tried in the u.k. at the start he would have served his sentence and been able to put all this behind him by now as it is he's stuck in limbo still loyal. to sixty years in an american jail and still insisting he was only looking for evidence of u.f.o.'s norris made london iran is facing a fresh round of sanctions over its nuclear program as the e.u. bans gas exports and bank transfers from the islamic republic that's despite tough problems apparent willingness to compromise more on that in a few moments. a

texas mom was arrested and thrown in jail orange jumpsuit and all for neglecting her kids who are playing in front of her house for just a little while a concerned neighbor and sort of say walking across the street you know to talk to the unintended children to find out what's going on went to the total sheep mode and immediately called nine one one because children playing it is truly an emergency worth the police's time but i guess it was worth their time because they showed up and slap the cuffs on the mother who claimed that she was there the whole time and of course to punish you for ignoring your children briefly while they play you'll get thrown behind bars because that makes sense where does this culture of fear come from if you leave your kids alone on your own property why does that mean that they are certainly going to die. there are dangers out there believe me but living in constant fear abuses your children far worse that's just my opinion.

you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm tom are looking for the big picture. wealthy british style. that's not on the telephone. market why not come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike stronger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into cars

dot com. welcome back to our team with me karen terrell and libyan opposition stronghold is facing an ongoing siege hall its residents calling for an. national help they conflict in bani walid already killed ten people in a series of armed confrontations last week the siege began when the national congress tried to arrest the suspected murderers of the man who captured colonel gadhafi but residents refused to hand them over dr abdul hamid. live from the by walid council is stuck in the middle of the battle. but the thoughts of. what are going to go out of the. north that are you know no you know can go not so i don't know you know while. you were.

going to go but really should have. been a fire you would want to go which can be pretty hard because i don't know what does that mean you should work for your body what do you do if i don't go. by theory that they were to do. that and worked on were. not. the government that we. know about. the e.u. has imposed fresh sanctions on iran the measures targeting banking sector and gas exports are aimed at forcing it to curb its nuclear program on sunday iran said it might consider limiting uranium enrichment if it's allowed to have fuel for the research reactor but anti sanctions campaigner professor lott says it's not a fear of nuclear armed iran that's behind me piling sanctions. u.s. policies against iran have always been designed by the new conservatives and these

are already lobby so that the negotiations with iran trade rather than succeed in fact are absolutely no justification for any kind of sanctions against iraq including the original you inside it because iran has not had that version of its nuclear program into a program or your reports have always confirmed this so all of this is designed to negotiations fail because the us and the e.u. . all interested in a regime change they want the iranian people to hurt so much so that there is less discontent in the country roads so that they can pave the road put a regime change in iran sanctions hurt people but the same time it's uniting the people against the west because even some sectors of the media courses in iran who have been traditionally pro-west know or quite hostile to the united states and do

all the polices against you want because they see that it is not war and who is not trying to negotiate in good faith it is the united states and e.u. who failed to negotiate in good faith. chain reaction person riots style protests go international the latest copycat stock took place in london the same paul's cathedral for women from the occupy movement chained themselves to the pulp during sunday service in protest at the wealthy churches links to big banks. plus why heading into the red light district may no longer be anonymous police in the us have decided the most effective method to combat prostitution is just to name and shame the potters. and your studies revealed a staggering rise of birth defects among iraqi children conceived in the aftermath of the u.s. led war the findings were published by the bulletin of an environmental. contamination and toxicology it suggested american and british ammunition has

caused high rates of miscarriages and birth defects professor christopher busby from the european committee on radiation risks believes the invading nations should take responsibility for what they did. it actually supports the work that we did and published about a month ago which did have for more evidence brought from the polluted general hospital there are high levels of lead and mercury which we also found in the head of the mothers of the children with congenital malformation we believe quite strongly that it was the uranium weapons the new weapons that were used in fallujah and of course they used an awful lot of depleted uranium in as well and i reported this whole issue about the uranium and the congenital malformation is the united nations human rights council last month and there was an awful lot of interest in it so we would hope that the united nations might actually put some pressure on the united states know to come clean about the kind of weaponry that they were using and i'm sure they were using a lot of experimental weaponry in fallujah which is why we see these enormous
