1:04 pm
a new bailout there that so called into a document that's been drafted at the euro group gathering in brussels today however all of the yannick from germany's party of reason thinks the euro zone is already beyond repair and anger merkel's optimistic messages aren't going to change that either. she does not think that it's working she is not optimistic she is just lying to the people this is what politicians usually do all the life of the people she knows that portugal can never paid. you cannot avoid that bankrupt. this country is all bankrupt they trust have to declare that with it to the public but they want of course a vote to harm to the people of the country but the harm would be even greater if you delay to drop out of the euro so better to drop out of the paper money system it does harm there's no way to avoid this paper money collapse goes this way so you can't avoid the harm. there's more on europe's economic and legal
1:05 pm
turbulence not his business pulls in laid this out. italian prosecutors are filing a lawsuit against managers from standard and poor's and fitch rating agencies for market manipulation when the cutting the sovereign debt rating is now we're looking at whether this will change the position of ratings agencies in the world in business starting later this hour. the syrian conflict continues to break its borders with israel now feeling the ripple effect the jewish state's fired missiles over the border for two consecutive days in response to mortar shells landing in the golan heights what is policy is called the latest. a mortar shell landed in an open area near the vicinity of in his lady defense force a military base in the occupied golan heights it did not cause any injuries or damage but israel immediately responded and fired shells now according to israeli military sources they did hit
1:06 pm
a syrian mobile artillery but we have no more information at this stage in connection with that but certainly the israeli army confirming that there were direct hits taken on the syrian side now the audio has also issued a complaint with the united nations forces in the area they say that any kind of fire into israel from syria will not be tolerated and that israel will deal with this in the harshest terms this is the second straight day that they has been in mortar fired from syria landing in northern israel the first incident saw israel responding with warning shots but what is significantly different today is that we are witnessing direct hits now there has been a truce in place between israel and syria since nine hundred seventy three and for the better part of the last four decades there has been an easy peace between these two countries but those latest incidents certainly is sending alarm bells and
1:07 pm
people are significantly worried that the situation could escape having said this is all does not believe that the mortars that landed in israeli territory whoa targeted to wards as well but they're rather they are the by products of the fighting that is happening inside syria between rebel forces and forces loyal to the syrian president bashar assad. probably will go states recognized to do rebel coalition is legitimate representative of the syrian people the body was formed after the marathon talks with various opposition factions in qatar's capital dough over the weekend deals the result of relentless pressure from the u.s. and its european and arab allies who want to see the color of syrian regime toppled british m.p. joe we call the drugs we live more analysis of the stores to call been good evening to you thanks for joining us from london will britain follow the gulf states now recognize the new opposition group as the voice of the syrian people as it is or purports to be. it's not clear at the moment although clearly the british government is moving closer and closer in that direction they are giving aid to the
1:08 pm
opposition forces all of the opposition forces which they characterize as humanitarian aid or norm lethal but it must also be said that a lot of the weapons and supplies of gulf cooperation council countries including saudi arabia originate in britain france or the united states and they are indeed being funneled through to syria for the opposition to fight the war with the government of president assad i think what we desperately need is an international one coming together of the u.n. security council that can at least organize an effective cease fire and talk about some kind of political future of syria because there has to be a political solution at some stage at some stage that's the million dollar question when is that going to be though. well obviously the sooner the better because the numbers of people being killed are huge the destruction of the country's infrastructure is enormous and danger of the war spilling over the three way into
1:09 pm
turkey into israel over the dispute over the golan heights for sure israel has occupied since nine hundred sixty seven but as you said in your introductory port up until now syria. with these for oil and then of course there's the question of the west building up its forces against iran by building up with enormous naval presence of the straits of hormuz to threaten iran there's a danger that syria could become the center for a proxy war on three fronts it's terrifying for the people of syria so it does require political action by those of supplying arms and saudi arabia is funding the opposition and supplying the arms i'm going to they've got some questions i'm concerned is the syrian leadership that you know attacks on neighboring states could drag damascus into a much bigger conflict. well at one level you could argue it sort of works in their favor because it indicates the bad faith of other countries in their dealings with
1:10 pm
the syrian government and support the syrian opposition or it could work another way in which you have an invasion of the country by western forces and a long term civil war in which the supporters of the syrian government of which there are a considerable number in syria would feel threatened and therefore would fight back the forces a very disparate group of forces that have come together in the syrian national council would then be armed by the west in order to continue this or you could get very long and very steep loss of life where you are over the weekend the u.k.'s top general suggested the british troops are on standby to intervene in syria in the case of any worsening humanitarian situation in the country that says it was billed realistically how much worse could that get and what would trigger it you know where is the dividing line. well the humanitarian situation is very bad and the
1:11 pm
only solution to the humanitarian crisis is a ceasefire the cease fire isn't going to come about if western forces intervene there will make the situation markedly worse we've had interventions in afghanistan iraq and libya and there's been a huge loss of life that's followed from that there is no stomach amongst the ordinary people of britain for british forces to be involved in yet another war this has to be solved as i say politically and it can only be solved politically if the big powers all of whom have close relations with either syria turkey iran or the neighboring countries get together and promote an effective cease fire and a political future for syria that has to be the way for intervention absolutely no way intervention is not going to bring about peace it will only prolong the conflict jeremy corbett thanks ever so much british labor m.p. thank you. maybe season about way tonight botched journalism false child abuse accusations and revelations of decades of paedophilia is seeing
1:12 pm
a number of key executives feel the heat the broadcasters head of news and a deputy are the latest to step aside just days after the director general quit artist laura smith reports from london. the director general george and wessel resigned over the weekend saying that it he felt it was the owner of both thing to do but what might not be seen as the honorable thing to do is that he's currently taking all four hundred fifty thousand pounds of his yearly pay packets despite having been in the job only fifty four days and of course much of that fifty four days he spent some would say ineffectually trying to fight these fires that keep on breaking out of the b.b.c. and that money will be paid by the taxpayer just the latest thing is these allegations by a man called steve meston who said that he was repeatedly sexually abused as a child by a senior politician that was reported on the b.b.c.'s flagship current affairs program news night and all it only all of that was this steve messam shown
1:13 pm
a photograph of lord mcalpine and he said oh no actually i'm sorry i was mistaken it wasn't him after all and that haven't been enough in itself of of the jimmy savile scandal again newsnight had done an investigation into jimmy savile who was a much loved children's entertainer back when i was growing up which essentially exposed him as a paedophile that program though was spiked by b.b.c. b.b.c. leadership they were ordered to drop it at least in part because other parts of the b.b.c. were preparing a programme that said how wonderful jimmy savile was done of course it's not just news that the b.b.c. does they do a range of programs nature documentaries it cetera et cetera so it has been a much loved it loved institution and people hope i think that this change of management will will make that be so again let's have a listen to what they say i still follow b.b.c. news and stuff it doesn't yeah it's true i still just as easily say we wouldn't deter me from using b.b.c. as an atheist i think you see a shift yeah in the search for something that really is the unfortunate you can't
1:14 pm
control the child i was asian the ambition so i still trust my brother in law here gordon to do it who will be with you free. well while at least the b.b.c. over a number of years has made a series of blunders and been involved in a number of decisions which have strained somewhat poor judgment. to do with the reporting of the conflict in the middle east and also an incident surrounding syria where the b.b.c. used a photograph that was taken in iraq in two thousand and three but used to illustrate a massacre in the syrian city of houla and there was also back in two thousand and three a very serious instance where a b.b.c. journalist revealed that dr david kelly was the source for his report that the government had sexed up the dossier on the weapons of mass destruction in iraq which of course led to the invasion of iraq dr kelly after being outed in that way was subsequently found dead again in the wake of that the director general resigned
1:15 pm
but this is this is an erosion of trust really that's been going back for some years norah smith alone though it appears home is not so sweet for many u.k. citizens these days either we find one or more skilled workers in search of better lawyers and reward and could leave scrubbing professionals interesting story bunk so many more we got a lot of people think it's great. i never thought i could earn a living this way. natale issue of hours alone or should just small arms so those photos to machine building plant lot are the source count of all the weapons she's fired over the past twelve years. i got so used to it sometimes my friends ask me to join them at the rifle range and i say no way i'm so tired of shooting. the

1:19 pm
compromised and why no one told them sooner live to washington correspondent got a teacher going to high that have been some developments in this bring us up to date what you know that tonight washington mostly said well kevin paula broadwell general petraeus his biographer slash mistress gave a speech last month and in that speech sure she revealed details about the big attack they were at that time unknown to the public she gave the speech at the end of october but now everybody knows that she had an affair with a general many are guessing whether those details that she revealed in that speech were part of their millo talk take a listen. i don't know a lot of you heard this but the cia annex had actually had taken a couple of libyan militia members prisoner and they think that the attack on the consulate was an effort to try to get these prisoners back so that it's still being vetted the challenging thing for general petraeus is that in his new position he's not allowed to communicate with the press. by the way the
1:20 pm
cia adamantly denies the allegations that they held prisoners at the consulate in benghazi again nobody at that time heard anything about the cia holding prisoners in benghazi but everybody knew about the access that paula broadwell had to the general because she was he is far biographer now it turns out that she had an even greater access to the general and when general petraeus resigned he cited his own extremely poor judgment and some are wondering whether that your judgment just was just about the affair or it could also be about having shared more with his mistress pleasant moments together no no there's another twist to this story apparently paula broadwell was not the kind to keep things to herself the f.b.i. were investigating her allegedly caressing the e-mail sent to another woman who also happens to know general petraeus and as officials here are saying that's how they found out about the affair the f.b.i. is basically saying that they stumbled upon the cia director when as they were looking into harassment allegations of one woman against another general petraeus
1:21 pm
his fall from grace came as a shock to many because of how he was worshiped here as the commander of forces in iraq and afghanistan he is officially referred to as the man who turned the tide in the afghan war so now we listen to other experts have done is that is a mess but the message that the general has rescued the mission there kind of sunk in and general petraeus was idolised the public had to go through a similar trauma with the other again and then general who was also idolized in many ways and that was general stanley mcchrystal he fell from grace and resigned when the rolling rolling stone magazine remoted him saying on flattering things about the administration so the careers of the of gand of the afghan war. probably two biggest names have ended this way abruptly and shockingly to so many people. does amongst the public and of the media as well it is it's fair to say these are just ripples causes in the total way isn't it.
1:22 pm
the media here of course have been all over the patriots scandal when they learned that there was another woman involved they got them spending all over again we heard discussions about how the level of testosterone affects them and man's judgment all kinds of things they have favored every detail of this story one thing that is said to watch is what the agency and i mean the cia is doing doesn't get that much coverage things like how they pick the targets for this targeted assassination program things that the public should know we should want to know it's national security and it's equated to when he comes to the director's bedroom all of a sudden everybody wants to know when death and the media you know are there to question every detail of this affair as far as let's say collateral damage for him a cia drone strikes not as interesting. go if you can thank you for bringing us a picture there from washington d.c. . now britain's brain drain could soon leave the country desperately short of
1:23 pm
skilled workers that's according to a recent report suggesting the number of professionals chase of work abroad has soared in the past two decades and he's probably boy the looks of boy for u.k. citizens home is no longer always where the work q's. london one of the global financial sense says it was even voted the best place to visit only won it last year but it looks like fewer people want to actually live in britain the u.k. home office has just released a court that says that an increasing number of executives scientists and academics are choosing to leave britain last year alone some one hundred fifty thousand new cases this isn't emigrates a day of the season and now some five million brits live abroad and don't blame the unpredictable weather or the local cuisine experts now say that it's the high rate
1:24 pm
of taxation and the cost of living that could drive even more brits to move abroad people with the motor of the economy or people with a lot of property have approached with an education perhaps with ambition as well and we need to keep them in the country you have to face a life of living in london on a very small gross wage maybe even small or taxation to a net wage that's the bit which we fail as a country and perhaps some sort of system of graduated tax allowances might help us cope perhaps most alarming for the politicians who office findings that the majority of the people that opt out of that you take rat race do so else in the overall lifestyle choice signalling and see for discontent with living standards here in britain that's not the answer. we know in national government to slow things for me consider moving abroad to avoid big government slacking off
1:25 pm
and taking away the good things from the people that owning a little bit more even though it's through hard work and dedication over here is that he work until you drop that you don't want to reward us with a point of continuing companies are already complaining that they find it hard to find highly skilled perfect. foreigners to work to make a because of the u.k. government's current one migration in order to cut immigration into the country now the growing number of young ambitious brits something that might leave the british government wondering where all the professionals have gone. that's the question ok dimitris with me now it's time for business it is twenty five minutes past one o'clock moscow time this monday night no you talking about busy business bulletin coming up in a couple of minutes of a new report out suggesting the u.s. could become with the world's biggest oil and gas producers pretty soon as that going to happen well that's because they're developing massively deposits of oil and gas shale oil and gas right now through
1:26 pm
a process called rowlett fracturing oco that's the figures often called fracking as well you know there's a lot of concern about it too isn't it and what how does it end up cheaper well the thing is that it's going to provide a lot more resources on to the market but other factors such as ecological factors very important we're talking about that in my boat and in a few minutes after that ok greg stemm see the. catalonia wants to get its independence from the rest of spain locals feel that madrid texas of catalonia economic success is a way putting the region into debt trust me only to have it all taxed away is very aggravating i can see why people are frustrated but the people who want independence have a very odd slogan catalonia
1:27 pm
a new european state so let me get this straight you want independence but you want to stay in the e.u. is that what you mean what exactly would that change that's not really gaining independence that shifting dependencies staying in the e.u. means you won't have control of your borders you'll still be on the euro c. won't have your own currency you'll be able to establish your trade standards those will be dictated to you by brussels and if you don't like the austerity measures from outsiders like in madrid then you might want have a conversation with the greeks because being an independent country in the e.u. won't save you from people messing with your finances all i'm saying is that being truly independent means answer to no one not madrid not brussels but that's just my opinion. you know how 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
