good evening i'm lucy catherine of you're watching r t well let's get on to our top story right now in egypt which has been plunged into a fresh outbreak of street violence as protesters vent their fury against president mohamed morsi now clouds of tear gas fired by the police and gulf demonstrators who had pelted the presidential palace with petrol bombs now amid this deepening crisis egyptian authorities have decided to block the video sharing web site you tube for a month this after a declined to remove an american made a video clip that was deemed insulting to islam the decision sparked outrage among many egyptians are true has the latest from cairo. at the moment there's been a lot of condemnation of the by protest movements who see you tube as

a vital resource for disseminating information about human rights abuses by the security forces it's also an indication of an islam mind zation of egypt there's been a number of quite controversial statements made by these hardline muslim clerics in the last few weeks including a religious edict calling proposition forces to be killed and a muslim cleric speaking to the. justifying the sex moba talks. but we really think here in egypt this will only fuel for the violence on the streets we've had a very restive country here in egypt in the last few weeks especially since the second anniversary of the journey one hundred five revolution when thousands gathered in the streets of egypt complaining that their president had morsi have not made key changes in demands of the revolution yesterday we saw on friday we saw more protests as part of friday's day of dignity thousands of protesters gathered across the main rallying points in this in the country which devolved into clashes between protesters and security forces in the. groups the building with molotov

there pushed by take us and water cannons and so bloody of violence in the in the governor with unconfirmed deaths in couple shake as well as violent clashes and. we have more protests on the horizon with further expected violence we don't see this finishing anytime soon egyptian journalist and blogger while eskandar says the decision to ban you tube as part of a crackdown on protesters which has now been extended to the internet as well. what the muslim brotherhood right now is trying to do is restore autocratic rule and much like mubarak method of governing and i think the way the political actor see it is that mubarak was not ruthless enough and did not climb down on freedoms enough to sustain his rule and this is what they're trying to remedy the you tube verdict comes in light of. you know many other decisions that clamp down on

freedoms and it's no surprise that they will try to install the infrastructure necessary to clamp down on. various websites that they see as a threat to their rule one other thing we've seen as well is of admins on facebook pages who are critical of the muslim brotherhood are being targeted and we've we're seeing more of these kind of clampdowns either in the physical realm and now they're moving on to doing it technically through you know through you tube and various other sites we can expect more of that. going on rest isn't confined to egypt as we report to later this hour i think political crisis and that's leaving clashes in tunisia so could the country that gave birth to the arab spring headed towards another revolution. plus a crackdown on the opposition involve reign on the streets in the courts and in the press we report from the gulf kingdom where people have been demanding change for several years now. in the u.s.

a full scale manhunt is underway for a former police officer who's seeking revenge after being fired the search for christopher dorner suspected of killing three people continues in the mountains in southern california and he's a highly trained a former los angeles police department officer with a military background he's also believed to have around forty targets on the hit list this according to a manifesto that he posted online though dorner is accusing his colleagues of corruption racism and the concealment of using excessive force investigative journalist michael rupert who used to work for the l.a.p.d. says the department has quite a few skeletons in his closet. i don't condone what's happened and i wanted 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 online i have to tell you that with regard to his allegations about rigorous trial board hearings and and. very egregious unprofessional coverup excessive force but also management mouth malfeasance perjury and a lot of other serious things i believe in my honor percent the l.a.p.d. has been shown and has a consistent cultural problem with racism cover up and cronyism within the department that has victimized i think and probably driven out a great many good officers i left for similar reasons but head over to our team dot com and join the debate on christopher dorner you can also follow the latest events and find out why the former police officer allegedly turned killer. the.

moscow court has a role to play as russian opposition leader sergei would also under house arrest for violating travel restrictions while being under investigation what i saw is accused of inciting violence during protests and for using force against the police or he is on the so now he has more on the man in question. he emerged with the protests as a leader just over a year ago here in russia when anti-government rallies really took off in unprecedented numbers and we quickly became one of the main faces but he's been in politics for much longer really in the late one nine hundred ninety s. he ran for an m.p. seat for a party called the stalinist bloc for the u.s.s.r.

and today he's head of the left front which is a young radical communist organization and that's actually how they describe themselves and their most known publicly for calling for revolution now during the recent protests was detained on multiple occasions for violating police orders and calling on other demonstrators to do the same let's listen to some of the things he calls the crowd to do oh. he. joins us. now charges against a very in june he was found guilty of attacking a young woman at one of these protests and several months ago in october a russian t.v. station aired a documentary which featured hidden camera footage allegedly showing solved trying to raise foreign funding and organize riots here in moscow and other regions

throughout the country. had initially viewed him as the leader of the sort of face of their movement he often now fails to see eye to eye with fellow activists most recently at a funeral of another activist scuffles broke out between a vote so and fellow protesters because they were so upset he was trying to use the funeral as a p r platform take a look at the scuffles now he's under house arrest but being arrested has really become somewhat. if you can say he's been taken into jail without detention twelve times in the last twelve months will now see how being under house arrest for those travel restriction. when the violations plays out of course we'll be keeping a close watch on the story online aside head over to our to dot com to learn of the latest arrests could be a signal for the russian opposition to brace itself for further tensions with the government. thousands tens of thousands of people have marched through cities in ireland in a massive show of anger against severe austerity measures tough cuts were implemented

to please arlen's creditors has been relying on a joint e.u. international monetary fund loan since two thousand and ten jobs not debt is the main slogan amongst the crowds with demonstrators calling on the governments to focus on creating employment at home. and angry crowds on the streets of ireland may spoil the mood of the e.u. leaders as they celebrate a historic budget deal cutting the block spending for the first time ever now the european parliament needs to have its final say on the agreement and the n.e.p. is looks set to block the budget plan after a secret vote and what's seen as a revolt against leaders economist james mehta way weighs in. constitutionally the well within their rights to reject the thing and send it back and have another go at writing this no whether they actually do that will probably depend on the fine print in the budgets are already raised to be politic to said he would be able

to support the steel and the heads of one of the major groups in the parliament or the socialist group said there are likely to be supported there's going to be a rocky ride i think this budget over the next few months cameron's right to 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 on spending more money now 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 discloses over the fact of course that he would have got anywhere in this without the support of angela 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 there cameron maybe claiming victory in

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 to review to find out what the morale all is like among the police officers amidst these revelations well morale is already rock bottom amongst police officers and i knew i was because of this tax on their pay and conditions that pensions and then they find out as you say the politicians who could like the rest of us made coffee themselves and let's not let's remember that the coffee they have will be heavily subsidized by us the taxpayer is 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 a look at my coffee twenty grand rounds of government where do i saw it i get so i'll just go from washington research coffee give me the most is the. you know
