you politick to said he would be able to support the steel and the heads of one of the major groups in the parliament the socialist group said there are likely to be supported so it's going to be a rocky ride i 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 carry on 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 a 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 discourses over the fact of course that he would have got anywhere in this without the support of the angle of merkel in particular so he can he can try to push that line the 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

3:09 am
a lot of the police federation representatives took to twitter to ask where they could apply such a nice restart job in parliament because it's obviously a lot safer and it's paying more than some of the frontline police offices but i spoke to the former editor of the police review to find out what the morale all is like among the police officers amidst these revelations well my role is already rock bottom amounts of police officers and i knew i was 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 made to 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 officers we hit the streets of london a little bit earlier to find out whether people in london think that someone who serves coffee to politicians should be making more money than a front line police officer let's take

with some forty people on his hitlist also accusing the department of quote internal corruption racism and concealment of excessive force and quote michel roux pet investigative journalist a former l.a.p.d. officer himself says there were many skeletons in the l.a.p.d. was it. i don't condone what's happened and i want to violence and killing to 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 a rigged trial board hearings and. very egregious unprofessional coverup excessive force but also management drove him out malfeasance 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 left for similar reasons it appears medal is too much to ask for according to the u.k. which is refusing its veterans russian on a as moscow one story award to british shoes for bravery in world war team specifically sailors who got it critical convoys that supply the u.s.s.r. but as our does a ridiculous korean pause this was 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 you imagine that country wanting to reward you with a medal of honor and then imagine your own government refused to allow you to accept the medal for rather ambiguous reasons that's precisely what's happening to
3:18 am
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 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 one hundred forty one in one thousand nine hundred five the road to went from north america osland 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 in humans of one of the problems the convoys often filled victim to the horrendous storms in the icy cold waters of the arctic that
3:19 am
was some seventy years ago as 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 medal and for some there is a feeling of bitterness feeling they're being refused a medal of of the truly deserved war tycho why not just from a bold mothership might polish them brazen enough to may. know we were what we could we're made to do we want to do job. oh nothing that. was always on my voice i know another programmer done a good 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 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 there are a few zal 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 many not served on the american idol when i was in shanghai and china cities but. how many sorry they were to offer me a medal what would be to their written the government's response to that. for their parts many british veterans such as john seemed open and receptive to the idea of a medal coming from russia while the owner did yes just to have possession and so have a few years ago left if a few years. and it down to meet children we grant you a mean surprise possession to me just not only bad to us but this coming from russia had been this will be extra special but unfortunately in their decision

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. indeed the number of heavy proton it's allowed to launch in two thousand and thirteen has dropped from seventeen to twelve it's prompted behind the scenes wrangling with moscow demanding reimbursement expensive launch contracts to last when those demands were leaked though both sides rushed to state there was no problem. there is no scandal no sensation there's no divorce between cuz it's 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 but also we need to address the issues as long as they arise that also refers to the questions arising about the number of launches

3:26 am
more often than american girls i think so why is that what's wrong with that kind of crazy it would be a way to get he was attention but i personally wouldn't do it maybe someone knows that i mean do you think that it would be little a cause or help because. i don't know if he'll do it much it's will bring more awareness i guess people will look so it's not what protesting is all about. but let him out lady 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. coming up after the break we take an in-depth look at the impact the h.i.v. epidemic on the african-american population on the u.s.
