in the very heart of moscow. a slick u.s. town struggles to remove rivers of oil from its streets after a pipeline spews more than ten thousand barrels of crude. just and reasonable the u.k. government of the widely criticized. him out of pocket. and deadly american. creating a three d. printed raising fears that getting a weapon will simply become a matter of click and print.

this is our t. live from moscow on kerry johnston. the streets of a u.s. town in the state of arkansas have been deluged by over ten thousand barrels of crude oil off an exxon mobile pipeline burst on friday around two dozen homes have been evacuated some residents forced to stay away for several more days when a cleanup operation continues washington correspondent has the details now. exxon mobil is naturally trying to downplay environmental concerns they're not saying exactly how much oil spilled onto the streets of that neighborhood in arkansas but the company says it has already collected more than twelve thousand barrels of oil mixed with water from the affected area not clear how much of it was water though twenty two homes were evacuated there as they're still cleaning up the pipeline that leak was carrying canadian heavy crudes to the south of the u.s. to the country's gulf coast refineries this latest spill the immediate response from critics of the proposed keystone x.l. pipeline the keystone x.l.

pipeline would carry eight hundred thousand barrels per day just to compare the pipe that leaked in arkansas can carry around ninety thousand barrels a day so the consequences of a leak could be devastating the keystone pipeline would also carry canadian heavy crudes to us with finally seeing the self the project doesn't have the final green light from the administration just yet but the oil giants involved are pushing the administration very hard to go ahead with it saying it will bring down fuel costs in the u.s. trans canada is first keystone line in the deal was spilled the a dozen times just in its first year of operation the company of course says the new keystone x.l. will be so much better but people know from experience how devastating consequences of an oil spill can be and how hard it is to clean up this is certainly not the first incident of course everyone remembers the disaster in the gulf of mexico in twenty ten when after an explosion and he had been leaking oil on the ocean floor

for several months before the well was tapped an estimated four point nine million barrels of oil had leaked into the gulf that three years later the gulf is still not free in july two thousand and ten a pipeline by church spewed more than twenty thousand barrels of canadian tar sands crude oil into the michigan waterway so this happens all the time just last week the government suggests that excess. mobil. a fine of one point seven million dollars over pipeline safety violations and that was for an oil spill two years the coal in the yellowstone river in montana exxon has a month to contest the violations many believe that oil giants get away with violations like that all too often in the west and all it takes is a team of really good lawyers to do that which the companies certainly have and that at the end of the day it's the people affected will pick up the slack in washington i'm going to check that. well this latest oil spill in a small u.s.

town is once again raised questions about environmental hazards of using older pipelines to transport increasingly large amounts of oil across the continent environmental consultant richard steiner says the pegasus pipeline is long past its sell by date there's no excuse whatsoever for oil pipelines to be anything over thirty years old or general design life is maybe twenty to thirty years there's been several spills about six or seven of this heavy diluted bitumen it's called dill bit which is the tar sand oil which is so thick it can't be transported through a pipeline unless it's cut with condensate and benzene exxon has shown time and time again that they are not willing to accept responsibility legitimate financial responsibility for their actions however or negligent they are they got out of the alaska spill with you know about a billion dollars paid to private thirty thousand private litigants that should

have been by many of their estimations much much more than that so they have a history of short changing responses. just ahead we find out how hot off the press is about to take on a new deadly reading reports on how three d. printing could be twisted to produce. and. study reveals one in seven british and it's not a real job outside of politics it's wrong we take a look at the u.k.'s richness. with a growing number of detainees on hunger strike at guantanamo and i don't cry in support of the protesters being far from the infamous detention center hundreds of activists and relatives of some ninety yemeni prisoners held in the camp demonstrating outside the u.s. embassy in the capital. demanding the prisoners be released having spent more than a decade behind bars without trial many prisoners are among those on hunger strike

make up with largest contingent of one hundred sixty six inmates their lawyers say the hunger striking guantanamo is getting some. risk accusing us of florence's of downplaying the actual number of those using food to use going to the school ports . they're calling for for the majority of those who are actually confined and get mobile jordi of those inmates are actually from yemen and most of them have been there for more than a decade ever since the invasion off of ghana's done by the united states even the yemeni government itself has actually issued a request to the u.s. government asking it to send the yemeni prisoners to sanaa the capital of yemen so they could at least be tried or held there or they are here already for possibly hearing to be held there as well but that request has been heard or at least it hasn't been hasn't received any response from washington so the people when we have

it of course are outraged that their compatriots who as you have as we have mentioned how some of them have been cleared of all charges are being held in prison and they're starving themselves. to prove their point and these are not the only protests that we have seen across the region you may say there's also been numerous protests in kuwait on sunday now there are two kuwaiti nationals being held it gets mo. they're both they both of them have participated in the hunger strikes and given all before and both of them have been forced to bed and again lawyers for them as well are saying that their situation is just as dire as. that of the other detainees who are dissipating in the hunger strike and it is clear that they actually are prepared to die before their requests are being met so we're looking at the we're looking at a situation which is spiraling out of hand to people in the countries from which the inmates are they're starting to support the people and they are literally

outraged at the way that their compatriots are being treated. a package of severe austerity cuts has been introduced in the u.k. with millions of households expected to be hit i don't precedented cutbacks were the most widely criticised the so-called bedroom tax will see social housing tenants how their benefits slashed if they have a spare room and that sparked such public concern that legislators are partial u.-turn making some exemptions the parents of those serving in the armed forces foster carers and parents of severely disabled children and avoid much of the changes however it will directly affect over half a million households including pensioners you know gibson from sheffield council says the government is hitting those who are already struggling to survive. two million households across the u.k. are going to be directly affected by these taxes they're the poorest people in this country and this government this tory government is attacking the poorest people on the people who can't afford to pay and they're not people are not working they're

up to most of these people affected are people who are working but in very low paid jobs and they need these benefits to help them survive and get by where i am in sheffield we have hundreds of disabled people who are going to be directly affected by this these people can't work they're physically disabled through no fault of their own they survive on benefits of very low benefits another are expected to have to pay for an extra room in their house that they need for their carers to stay in or they need to because they've got children that don't live with them or for whatever reason they're the people most affected seventy five percent of the people affected by this are working people i think is the most devastating thing this government has ever done in a.z. in the week that they're giving one hundred thousand bucks a pound back to millionaires they're changing the national health service or imposing taxes on the poorest people in the country is going to have a devastating effect most people in this country. to a website r.t. dot com to get more on the outcry sparked by the battle zone of austerity measures

a k lord strathclyde who's worth almost ten million pounds london. very taylor's way out of the price range for most people but not for this government many of. them not afraid to flaunt their wealth the prime minister david cameron is known to be partial to the rich jane see the price of which is likely to set you back more than the average monthly household income and with total support having to live with another austerity tailored budget come this politically really understand what those cuts mean for ordinary. you close according to your clothes as the old saying gays house members the government should take note from their tailors unemployment in britain. is down and ordinary british people feel present it's. duty we've increased the pension he usually.
