a coalition of nations led by france thanks president on lands apparently using even me but british prime minister david cameron but it's not a done deal yet with skeptical european parliament deputies now threatening to sink it during a vote. constitutionally the well within their rights to reject the thing and send it back and have another go at writing this know whether they actually do that will probably depend on the following print of the budget or already the result you parliament to said it will be able to support the steel and the heads of one of the major groups in the part of the socialist group. likely to be supported so it's going to be rocky reuter think this budget over the next few months cameron's right talk about this being like a reduction in a credit card limits and of course you can have your credit card limit reduced and still spend korean spending more money you know that's almost certainly what's going to happen to britain over the next few years the amounts that britain is expected to pay into the main e.u.

fund will increase as a result of increased payments to new member countries so he's going to pretend that this will show how britain can still be a force in europe how we can push the rest of europe around discloses over the fact of course that he would have got anywhere in this without the support of language merkel in particular so we can you can try to push that line you know he knows what he's doing to europe and that we don't need to go so far as to step out of the european union but i wouldn't see the more euro skeptic members of his own party being particularly impressed by any of this. david cameron may be claiming victory in brussels but domestically one issue is refusing to go away the investigation into a raid fixing at banks in britain is expanding with revelations ever just how widespread the practice was revelations that have left archie's mess keyser exasperated. i'm going to avoid the t word for today just for variety i mean if i thought the key word is being prosecuted in this country or america i would imagine if i

12:09 am
per year which to put into context for our international viewers is over thirty thousand dollars per year if we compare that job to other public sector jobs we've got policeman whose style areas have recently been cut starting salaries they now start on nineteen thousand pounds a year similarly with soldiers who start on over seventeen just over seventeen thousand pounds per year so you've got frontline jobs that carry risks to your life the people who are detecting the safety of british citizens that are being paid less than you somebody who's serving coffee to politicians one of the police federation representatives took to twitter to ask where they could apply for such a nice restraint job in parliament because it's obviously a lot safer and it's paying more than some of the frontline police officers but i spoke to the former editor of the police tribute to find out what the morale all is like among the police officers amidst these revelations well morale is already rock
12:10 am
bottom amongst police officers than he was is because of the attacks on their pay and conditions their pensions and then they find out as you say the politicians who could like the rest of us may tune coffee themselves and let's not let's remember that the coffee they have will be heavily subsidized by the taxpayers a lot of people's wages being either frozen or slashed just like the police officer says we hit the streets of london a little bit earlier to find out whether people in london think that someone be so coffee two politicians should be making more money than a front line police officer let's take a look at my coffee twenty grand of commons where do i saw it i get it going so i'll just go in there somewhere so research coffee game here. here probably no closer drink tonight again tonight is basically you can go in there because they're just being ridiculous and advertisers should be ashamed of themselves for doing so

12:12 am
authorities for gagging the voices of protests while officials insist they've made more than enough concessions artie's alexy or shuster reports now on freedom of speech or lack of investor in. if you look through any pro-government newspaper in bahrain you did an impression that the government has nothing to hide the news of an uprising of the opposition is dominating the front page and if you look through it you'll see other stories about the political discourse in the country the country's information minister insists bahrain has no problems with people speaking out heard it that if in freedom of expression in our english very high because it is guaranteed by the constitution moreover there is a law to be issued soon that further guarantees yes we have a problem related to banning some upsides but that's to protect bahrain from six hearing ethnic problems and violence only and not any other reason. but
12:13 am
this is what happened when we tried several opposition websites having looked through these pages later we did not notice any extremist overtones and so you see from bahrain center for human rights believes the government is deliberately attempting to silence views different to its own center for human rights which i work for website is a blog we have almost more than four hundred website out of the most of them. human rights. political website although of certain beheaded our block we have only facebook and twitter there are many which is not the blog sayed spoke to us on the back over two week prison term for what was called breaking the law on public gatherings several weeks later he was arrested again the editor in chief of bahrain's only independent newspaper says this is how things are in his country if you speak out if you express yourself you are expressing yourself at your own risks
12:14 am
people are brave enough now to speak out but they do that and they could be punished one day you could be put in jail you could end up like a builder job three years because if you tweeted something. social networking came of age during the uprisings of recent years a fact not lost on bahrain's leaders who have watched almost daily street protests and an unusual drop in web traffic through the country big by an american internet more nits or leaves human rights activists here wondering exactly who the constitutional right to expression really applies to alexi russia of ski reporting from the kingdom of bahrain. we've got most stories for you on our website including caught on camera muscles notorious self-styled black devil stopped by police a following two years of right let's try being around the cities the streets he's brought to justice to breaking online. well also the
12:15 am
kook let's plan is making a comeback in america's south the find out why the group's leaders have turned their back on authorities in memphis. but listen to this police department has launched a large as to evan man hot former officer turned against them the social christof adonis suspected of killing three people has spread to three u.s. states and northern mexico thousands of police offices i involved in the operation as donna is believed to be a well trained and heavily armed on face book he posted a manifesto declaring war on the l.a.p.d. with some forty people on his hit list also accusing the department of quote internal corruption racism and concealment of excessive force and quote michael rubin investigative journalist and a former l.a.p.d. officer himself says there are many skeletons in the l.a.p.d. is closet. i don't condone what's happened and i want to violence and killing to
12:16 am
end but more important i want him to be brought in alive which is something i do not think that the l.a.p.d. law enforcement or the u.s. government wants under any circumstances with regard to his specific allegations about his case and i'm currently reviewing legal documents that are becoming available on mark i have to tell you that with regard to his allegations about rigorous trial board hearings. very egregious unprofessional cover up excessive force but also management drove him out melfi perjury and a lot of other serious things i believe in one hundred percent the l.a.p.d. has been shown has a consistent cultural problem with racism cover up and cronyism within the department that has victim arms i think and probably driven out a great many good officers i look for similar reasons. it appears a medal if she wants to ask for a call in to the u.k. which is refusing it's better in the russian honors moscow wants to reward british
12:17 am
troops for bravery in world war two specifically sailors who guarded critical convoys to supply the u.s.s.r. but as our teams are in a collision reports that's not something london is willing to allow. imagine doing a service to a foreign country during a time of war risking your life going through unimaginable hardships all in the name of helping an ally imagine that country wanting to reward you with a medal of honor and then imagine your own government refused to allow you to accept that medal for rather ambiguous reasons that's precisely what's happening to several hundred veterans in the u.k. the russian government wanted to award them the medal for their service in the arctic convoy during world war two but the foreign and commonwealth office has refused the request saying that they appreciate the move from moscow but they simply cannot be granted because current rules dictates foreign medals can only be
12:18 am
accepted within five years of the events occurring but the british government is promising to soon create a medal to honor u.k. troops who participated in the arctic convoys now the convoys delivered thousands of anti tank guns and fighter planes to the u.s.s.r. between nine hundred forty one in one thousand nine hundred five the route to went from north america and and the u.k. it's may look simple enough on the map but it was anything but that the conway's were constantly attacked by german u. boats ships and planes and when humans were in the problem the convoys often fell victim to the horrendous storms in the icy cold waters of the arctic that was some seventy years ago and many of the veterans feel they may not live to see the day the u.k. very wards them with its old version of the metal and for some there is a feeling of bitterness feeling they are being refused a medal of what they truly deserve or tycho wife not just from
12:19 am
a bold mothership might post from present. to may. i thought we were what we could. do we went to do job. think that. was always on voice or. another. job you know mother ship might now there was a governmental has been created to reward those fighting at sea for bravery it's one of the highest military decoration is in russia its importance as such but it has been retained from the soviet union era because of the magnitude of feeds it was awarded for so they're refusing to let a foreign government honor their service in the greatest war of modern history makes veterans wonder what's behind the reason if it had been america to offer this medal which are not served on the american idol when i was in shanghai and in china so. but. let me tell you they were to offer me
12:20 am
a bet on what would be to their written the government's response to. for their parts many british veterans such as john seemed open and receptive to the idea of a medal coming from russia while the ordered us just to have more possession. of the few years i got left there for a few years. and it down to meet children we grow into a mini surprise possession to may just not only beddoes but they're coming from russia this will be extra special but unfortunately in their decision making process it appears the u.k. government did not consider the feelings of its country's veterans. as members of a radical feminist group gets to mean a kid in berlin do you think women should get topless to fight accords. would you do it well maybe you were not good but do you think french girls would do
12:21 am
it more often than american girls i think so. in the resident of this week the lower half of us ask whether women should get naked to attract one attention. turkey has lost dozens of if force officers who quit following the resignation of a top naval command the exodus could signify decaying morale in the country's military the resignations come in protests against the attention of hundreds of the police accused of conspiring against the government although journalist andrew finkel says the military is worried by the government's religious bent. it's very clear that the military traditionally a powerful force within turkish politics was trying to undermine its own government and of course the government fought back and they fought back success really feeds conspiracy trial so. perhaps this is simply the military saying ok you've lied you
12:22 am
know you have it your own way but. at the at the moment the prime minister i don't is a little bit concerned he's actually said that there are too many military officers in detention awaiting trial and i mean the reason the country as a military has to defend itself so if you put all their offices in jail and then of course the renewed must feel a little bit vulnerable so i think the government realizes that perhaps that thing has gone too far that it's time to actually get the military back on their side but of course the resignation we simply wave of resignations will not come is that new sort of i think that's what the military themselves might feel and some people sympathetic to the military might feel that they have a government which is to leans too far to the religious right and indeed that's one of the reasons why the military tried to everett there are two undermine their government in the first place. and now for some international news in brief
12:23 am
a state of emergency has been declared in five you would state as a snow storm a negro slams into the northeast of the country the blizzard has already caused blackouts leaving hundreds of thousands of homes without electricity three thousand flights have been canceled authorities of want people to stay at home in the face of what could be record snow falls. in georgia hundreds of protesters have falls the president may fire last that has really changed the venue of his yearly national address scuffles broke out with police outside the national library as demonstrators accused him of human rights abuses and russian descent related made to the speech of form of the presidential palace and for greater cooperation between himself and the georgian dream party that won parliamentary elections last october. it could be the end of an era for legendary cosmodrome or that saw the first man blasting off into
12:24 am
space political differences between russia and has extern have let the rumors. might stop renting by canoe to moscow artist on barton has a story. they call him the first the shooter anatoly has worked at the baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan for fifty years he's the man who say blast off but now he's worried about political meddling in the spaceports future as you know we are living a normal life here so i believe they shouldn't try to fix something that's not broken since the end of the soviet union russia has rented baikonur from kazakstan but recently the head of the kazakh space agency annoyed by a lack of progress on a joint rocket project called for a halt to some of the launches allowed them. to keep the number of heavy proton rockets allowed to launch in two thousand and thirteen has dropped from seventeen
12:25 am
to twelve it's prompted behind the scenes wrangling with moscow demanding reimbursement expensive launch contracts are lost when those demands were leaked though both sides rushed to state there was no problem you go there is no scandal no sensation there's no divorce between cause it stan and russia on the subject of the baikonur cosmodrome however as russia's foreign minister pointed out there is a question mark over baikonur that we need to address the issues as long as they arise that also refers to the questions arising about the number of launches this was the place from where yuri gagarin became the first man in space and for now both russia and kazakhstan both have an interest in continued launches from baikonur but with russia building a new cosmodrome in the far east that situation won't last for ever as a spaceport or as a dusty little museum town baikonur will eventually likely come back under us to
12:26 am
nuss orbit. rising out of the center of the vast kazakh step baikonur has always been a strange place but whether our gate to the stars remains here or not it will always be from him. but humankind first reached the cosmos because that government may have some space plans of their own but perhaps they should consult on a totally first ok i understand that kazakhstan wants to become a great space power but this is something that requires preparation whether it happens or not he's satisfied that baikonur has already established its place at the center of months quest for space tom bottom antti. the radical feminist group of men are added again and this time they've gone topless at the berlin film festival to protest against a female circumcision the demonstrators some to overbearing before being caught by security guards attracting a lot of attention along the way so if you've got it should you flaunted or cause
12:27 am
the residents laurie often is hit the streets of new york to find out what you. in new york city it's legal for ladies to protest topless so where are the bullies this week let's talk about that part of the body even though it's legal it's still private. but do you think that would draw a lot of attention to the cause yeah but then again you know the tracks or encroach on what it attracts you there. would you ever consider protesting topless full of reason yeah what would be the reason. you would go topless for that yeah what about something like if you're protesting
12:28 am
obama's drone program then no that's not appropriate now keep them inside yeah so one would be appropriate to whip them out first cancer research breast cancer or something related to breasts yes i don't think it's safe why not a lot of weirdos out there would you do it well maybe one month but do you think french girls would do it more often than american girls i think so why is that what's wrong with that kind of crazy do you think that americans are more uptight when it comes to topless and sexuality yes yes i do think that that they're more uptight it would be a way to get he was attention but i personally wouldn't do it maybe someone knows and i mean do you think that it would be a good thing to bring that attention to a cause that way. not really is private is going to bring one kind of attention to somebody i don't think you really get your message out if you're out topless do you
12:29 am
think that it would be little cause or help because. i don't know if we'll do it much it's will bring more awareness i guess people will look so it's not what protesting is all about. so let him out ladies the bottom line is going topless is a sure fire way to bring attention to your cause so ladies you might want to consider that the next time you suit up for your big rally. well coming up after the break we take an in-depth look at the impact of the h.i.v. and demick on the african-american population of the u.s. a stay for that here or not.
