8:05 am
a story. across the country many have been shocked at the uncovered sexual exploitation rings first in rochdale that dobby and most recently in oxford gangs of men vulnerable young girls some as young as ten with presents in order to gain their trust then they force them to take drugs rape them and finally they sell them off into prostitution they reported gangs a made up of muslim men their victims young white girls says the government choosing to ignore obvious marcuse when it comes to these horrific crimes race and religion to talk about the issue i'm joined by sean thomas he's a writer and generous when you've written about the case in oxford is there an elephant in the room is the government choosing to shy away from making a connection between these men's religion and their white victims i think unquestionably yes in the past there is some evidence that these crimes have been going on since the early one nine hundred ninety s. if not before. additionally a labor m.p.
8:06 am
and crier raised the issue maybe ten or fifteen years ago and of course notoriously the head of the british national party a far right politician raised it in one thousand in two thousand and one and in two thousand and four i want it was right in two thousand and four it was a subject of a secret b.b.c. documentary and the reaction of the of the political and legal establishment to to nick griffin enough for a politician raising the issue was to try and silence him not to investigate the crimes that he obviously is regarded as being an ethnocentric if not racist politician but but they did but they ignored everything he said and instead tried to saw his point of view so the crimes went on for another five or six years at least before they originally put it became finally revealed in the last two to three years you've also mentioned in your writing that it was a muslim prosecutor driving the sentencing in the oxford case do you think anybody who is known muslim feared being branded a racist if they look too closely at the case the fact that it took a muslim prosecutor in the northwest to be able to find and cut through them. yes
8:07 am
there was a problem it showed that that what prosecutors what social workers what legal offices and what politicians were very wary of addressing the issue because they are all terrified of being associated with the b.n.p. with the far right of being seen as racist it could it can ruin careers if you get that label and yet the government hasn't taken this up as an issue do you think it's too dangerous a can of worms to open yes completely and in fact to be fair to the government the police forces they are now in fact attacking this crime pretty damn seriously i was reading a report where they were said there were nine fifty four ongoing investigations into into separate asian grooming gangs around the u.k. astonishing figure that's fifty four gangs and each of these gangs may have dozens or even hundreds of victims so we are talking about possibly fisons and sizes of girls who've been abused raped and some even possibly murdered in the last twenty years because this crime was ignored i mean it is very shocking we have to accept that yes what people can also be victims of racial crimes and i'd say these girls were such victims thomas many thanks for your comments there you have it the muslim
8:08 am
council of britain is going to dedicate their next meeting to talking about how they can stamp out such cases of abuse but yet to hear anything from the government on the issue. artsy london. now the far right and islamic english the fans league is reportedly planning national rallies of more than thirty locations on saturday in turn anti-fascist groups have called for counter-demonstrations to coincide with those protests let's not get more on the tensions with the chief executive of the ramadan foundation thanks very much mr speak for joining us here on r t good afternoon as a muslim what has been your reaction to the oxford says women case. well it's been very clear that there are asian gangs operating in this country who are abusing girls in a very horrific way and they don't represent our community i think is very clear
8:09 am
and they think the white girls are worthless they think they can be used and abused in this horrific way and we must stand up against it and i actually listening to your previous contributor our that's what i've been doing since two thousand and seven i've been campaigning on this against this and i think that we are finally achieving real success because we actually see more more criminals being brought to justice and that's something that we should celebrate so i do believe that race and religion should be treated as factors in such crimes. i'm not sure about the religion it's got nothing to do with religion at all but yes when it comes to the issue of race there is an element a contributing factor is that some of these gangs think the white girls are worthless they think they can use them in this way and that's the issue for is that we've got to address there's been a reluctance on the part of the police and the crown prosecution service our local authorities in this country in dealing with this issue in a strong way because they were fearful of being branded racist i mean that's what
8:10 am
it was like two three years ago but actually now we actually seen a real sea change in which police in the prosecutors are taking these crimes seriously so actually the crimes are not going up but actually conviction rates are going up because more and more story cases are being brought to call again i think that's a really good thing of english defense league is seeing it support base expand faster than ever before does this worry you at all. yes the fascist english defense league of opportunistic they ask the we deal with these crimes but we don't see the same protesters when white people are convicted of child sexual abuse eighty percent of child sexual abuse carried out in this country are carried out by white men yet we don't see the english defense league in the british national party as the fascist groups marching the streets of this country but actually i think the majority of the british people recognise that this is a very small minority of people they don't represent any particular part of our community and actually all people from all parts of our society can be affected by
8:11 am
child sexual exploitation well british society indeed is a very mild to ask nic one so what can moderate muslims do to prevent the radicalization of young people within their community. well i think what needs to happen is there needs to be a real concerted effort is what we saw over the last seven days after leave rigby's brutal and barbaric murder is a strong reaction from the muslim community that is what we give you know i spent pretty much all last week doing various media interviews as did other colleagues from other organizations and the message goes out very clear that if you are involved in terrorism or extremism you do not represent islam you're not acting in a name on you bringing shame on the community and you must be confronted and we need to see real action from the police and the authorities to do with this threat you know terrorism affects all communities are one of the you're talking about here

i'm going to strip them of cultural diversity is proving to be too much for manny britons with some parts of the u.k. experiencing a seismic shift in demographics sara first reports of why so-called white flight is seeing an exodus from cities and suburbs with a dominant ethnic populations. london. the multicultural hub known for its thriving diversity spanning the centuries but research by social think tank doubles reveals that while london remains as vibrant to server it's perhaps not as integrated as some people might think long periods to huge amount of white flight from. low income people mainly in the outer suburbs leaving london because they think it's changed too fast for one of these people is jane kelly having lived in london most of her adult life she's seen first hand the cultural shift is now looking to me for
8:22 am
house she fills the area she lives in it's lost all sense of community all people i knew when i moved in here have gone they've all moved away. now mostly flats with very transitory population but perhaps surprisingly it seems many of the older generation of migrants who live around here and it settles and builds up businesses agree that integration is not working is whether that maybe should be as they call it the diversity in london is part of what makes one group so why do you think this thing a little too close to the problems that arise it was to go to zero is is foreign people is more or less these european people are they just interested to do a short journey make the money and then run off the country and there's no investment very very return to their country there's nothing to rebuild the country is only for themselves to make money and that's to know that's what i first of all i mean i've been to this country when i was like twenty three years old now i'm
8:23 am
forty three years old so i'm an investor in business i'm doing so many things in this country paying tax back into the country and you know that's the way it has to be in london white brits now make up just forty five percent of the capital's tehsil population. we're here at one of london's busiest train stations and in the working week a commuter hub and over the course of a decade in london stories white british population for a moment six hundred thousand people lost in the commuter towns on the outskirts and the populations become more ethnically mixed so you know the white points are leaving london behind the question is why i want to fact if any is having on the local communities they've left behind well that's a certain amount of diversity which is very nice in any city. but when the diversity becomes so extreme that you have. balkanized groups but the real no actual. traditional communities or the traditional communities around completely by
8:24 am
newcomers or newcomers keep rolling in it has a very alienating effect what's been seen across the cape for a long time has been most acute in london but the figures aren't the full story avoiding ethnic communities does play a role in say white flight but evidence shows the race may not be the main driver i think the main thing about that white flight reminds us of is that there is a problem the mistake it makes that says that problem is just about ethnicity it's not it's about age and it's about mixing between people of different incomes and we need to address all these things together there are now concerns britain could see it's another immigration surge at the end of this year when some twenty one million romanians and seven million both guerin's will be free to travel and work across the e.u. only a fraction of those of forecasts actually come here that previous immigration under-estimates coupled with like british relocation a changing the face of

london's ethnic makeup without much understanding what the full ramifications of that might be. so if they are to see london. now athletes planning to make their mark at next year's sort of olympics and finally lay their eyes on the prize literally the medals have been unveiled in st petersburg farmer was among the first to check out the top awards. but yeah the wait is finally over isn't it we now know what the medals will look like for the sochi winter olympics and paralympics we were told before hand just to tease you a bit more they would capture russia's national identity and character and i think actually they have done just that in essence they try to show the boardwalks of the black sea colliding with the ice at the mountains at the present i piano and if you look very closely you also notice a bit of a patchwork quilt the man is met meant to represent the multi ethnicity of russia
8:26 am
the man who led the presentation was to make sure shankar he is the man in charge of the sort you organizing committee he basically have to see the whole preparations for these games and he told me just a few moments ago that he hoped when people do win these medals a little so take the spirit of russia i wear you with them. and if you win one of those gold medals you will have to have a pretty strong net because they do weigh in i don't have a five hundred grams dreijer shanker was also talking a little earlier about. the problems that the sox you going to face over this last year in particular being security concerns he addressed are you saying that the government was taking all the measures it could to guarantee that the games would be safe and secure and he also said that despite the warm weather the sorties experience in the winter is experienced this year plans are in place to make sure that enough snow is being stored under thermal blankets up in the mountains tons of the stuff to cover any shortfall so rest assured thanks to the medals thirteen
8:27 am
hundred will be produced that will be self will be a record number they will be produced by a russian jew in the biggest russian jew look at a mass and as i mentioned i think that twelve new sports be included in the sochi calendar this time around which make them the biggest winter olympics in history so the way thing is this is always a milestone when the medals are presented to me get to see what they do look like. there's a monsoon in the preparations for the winter games by the high city and from tomorrow from friday the can down the streets two hundred fifty dollars well and the next in our case the kaiser reports investigates how the world's oldest profession has been affected by the financial downturn.

distraction is one thing the media does very well we all tend to focus on one spicy issue of the moment and ignore the rest jim those are definitely worth the media attention but let's not ignore the fact that the food people eat around the world is an attack from multiple fronts antibiotics are often overused in cattle which can and eventually sadly will lead to anti biotics resistant bacteria evolving animals are also injected with various hormones which can make their way into our stomachs and speaking of mysterious things getting into our body pretty much any crops and you we are doused with all sorts of pesticides and sit on top of powerful fertilizers which can affect bodies of water far beyond the fence of the farm obviously technology has been and should be used in farming so we all don't starve i get why pesticides exist and why they start giving diseased animals antibiotics but there comes a point where outputting a lot of poisonous food will kill you just as dead as slowly starving will there is
8:29 am
a healthy middle ground out there somewhere but if we only worry about just the g m o's and only won that battle then we'll still be eating food loaded with bad stuff just other bad stuff but that's just my opinion. welcome to the kaiser report imax kaiser spankings are trading better all time high according to the economist magazine bankers are paying top dollar or pounds in this case for going to old fashioned bottom slapping from a dominate trix who can show them who is the true bad bad boy meanwhile because of the debts and the austerity pushed by these same masochistic.
