it would. be your government shutdown begins to bite with hundreds of millions of dollars trickling away each day over this stalemate by washington's lawmakers showed no sign of finding a quick solution and that. also this hour three senior members of greece's far right golden dawn party are released pending trial three more a man in custody following the killing of an anti functions toronto last month. and russian investigators charge fourteen greenpeace protesters with piracy after their attempts to board and noise platform as little went on to trading campaign in the arctic.

international news line for most this is the with me. things which are running this motion to go to govern itself has already cost them american economy hundreds of millions of dollars on the first day of the government shutdown and things are likely to get even more expensive with neither republican or democrat lawmakers willing to bond down from their stance on barack obama's signature house bill let's now get the latest from sachs who is in washington d.c. for us hi that sounds so well to being done to resolve this crisis. well lawmakers here are pretty open about saying they have no clue how they're going to resolve this government shutdown the sticking point remains obamacare as you said with house republicans saying they'll only fund the government and reopen it if president obama's signature health is defunded or delayed senate democrats are

saying no way that's going to happen there yesterday and today there were attempts on capitol hill to provide partial funding to the government to just partially fund the veterans administration and to the park service is but those aren't going anywhere as other lawmakers say they will expect take full funding of the full government and nothing less despite the government now being shut down there's a lawmakers who want to defund obamacare are still going to have leverage because in a few weeks the united states hits its debt limit deadline and there too these lawmakers are saying they'll only raise the debt limit if obamacare is de lay or or defunded and the president has said it repeatedly that he won't negotiate over this and if the government is shut down for another few weeks until the debt limit we're looking at tens of billion dollars in economic consequences so that's where we stand right now in this second full day of a government shutdown right and how is this deadlock affecting all general american

people that. well there were a lot of predictions about what a government shutdown would look like but as actually happens we're learning more and more about what it actually looks like one of the agencies affected by the shutdown is the national institutes of health and it announced today that they can no longer add any new patients to its lifesaving cancer clinical trials there about two hundred cancer patients including thirty children were expected to be added to these clinical trials this week they now won't be and any new patients won't be added in the coming weeks as this shutdown continues so also the food stamp program it's not just children with cancer or affected it's impoverished children too the food stamp program is shut down meaning impoverished families and children won't be receiving the sort of food benefits they need in this is sort of a common theme that working class people in impoverished people are being most affected by this government shutdown we're also hearing that. f.d.a.

food inspectors have been furloughed meaning as many as eighty three plants every single day are going without necessary inspections we have immigration courts closed around the country and we have the eight hundred thousand federal employees who've been furloughed now for the second day we're going to be cutting back their spending businesses are going to be hit by that we're looking at a cost of three hundred million dollars a day and if this shutdown lasts two to three weeks it could shave a full point and a half projected economic growth in the fourth quarter for the united states so really pressure is building on lawmakers to do something and do something quickly but those who have a beef with obamacare just don't want to drop the grudge just yet. sound thank you very much indeed for bringing us up to speed sounds like from washington d.c. thanks elaine. the u.s. government sponsored by disagreement on capitol hill that's been brewing for years is alarming those across the world relying on america's economic and political

leadership and the u.k. prime minister david cameron said america's standoff is a grave risk to the world economy and headlines around the globe echoed that sentiment the french daily figure out down is a blow to the credibility of the u.s. meanwhile in germany and. line called america a superpower paralyzing itself meanwhile one of china's major news portals pointed out that a big u.s. lawmakers are holding their own country hostage and the australian things washington struggle to agree a budget doesn't inspire confidence in the world's largest economy. an economist says washington is so caught up in its internal squabbles it doesn't see the run the fixation for the country's people and its international standing. the truth here is what the federal government of united states of congress and the white house have exhibited rather aggressively over the last several weeks and including through the shutdown is that there's literally nothing the u.s.

government can't and won't do for unclear reasons sending whatever shock waves they feel like sending into the u.s. and global economies i can't imagine a recipe that would undermine confidence in the dollar of the u.s. or particularly the u.s. government faster or more effectively than what we see on every news channel in the world every day for a week and counting we're already starting to see hundreds of thousands of people get an involuntary unpaid vacation those hundreds of thousands of people are going out to dinner they're not going to the dry cleaner that are buying a new car or have trouble making house payments are going to have trouble making mortgage payments and rents and all the rest and we know the money they didn't get today and tomorrow or the next day is money that they're not spending now and even if they get paid later it will still be damaging to the economy and now let's talk with cholera howel a political director of the u.s. national libertarian party means how well welcome to the great to see you so president obama has republicans to reopen government do you think they're listening

first of all the government is very much open here in washington d.c. what's happening is the government slowdown and it's welcome reduction in rampant irresponsible and reckless government overspending it has to stop and this slowdown is forcing some modest spending cuts which are very much needed to stimulate the economy in the united states but only asleep the president and congress have to work together those cool but what else can the president say or do to resolve this crisis. he can do what the republicans are now demanding defund obamacare net they've already conceded to delaying it it should be completely repealed and defunded and that would immediately end this standoff there's many other areas of government we're spending can be cut and basically what they're saying is that they refuse to cut spending and they're going to hold the american people and take away the tourist industry and certain selected groups

hostage so they can continue spending at recklessly high levels we need to slow down the government much more than it's being slowed down right now and this will restore the economy it will help the world economy it will store the private sector economy in america and this is desperately needed to create jobs. and of course a dispute over funding for health care results in hundreds of thousands losing that wages how does that reflect on the way washington's lawmakers run the country whenever government spending is cut for every one government job that's lost it creates approximately two jobs in the private sector tremendous job growth the more we can cut spending the better keep in mind the federal government is spending about twice as much as the entire russian economy that's just insane it's much too much government spending we need to reduce it immediately and this will this will create economic stimulus and job growth in the united states and tell us more about

the american people american people reacting. well american people very much want the federal government to cut its reckless overspending and this is where they're not listening to the american people people want less government lower taxes lower government spending and this will create private sector jobs which is probably the number one issue here to americans and american voters in particular if they're listening really listening they're going to slow down the government more and cut spending more and stop these fiat's tricks where they close the tourist destinations and other things that they're making tremendous theater out of rather than getting to the real marbled throughout government spending they can certainly cut military spending they can cut entitlements programs but rather than starting with the people who are most in need now dependent on government there's many many areas they can cut that don't affect poor

folks or people in need at all for starters government pensions and government perks which are enormous and typically double what people get in the private sector and tell us quickly what ponce of the science of being the was to hate and hate by by these events. i think the tourist industry because there they've picked something very visible which won't actually kill anyone. but they've shut down monuments they've done things like in washington d.c. near where i work they've shut down a boat house and now they have two cop station there to shut keep the parking lot shut they didn't need two cops before so they're actually wasting money spending more money to so-called shut down the government which is actually just a reduction in spending and to do this they're wasting more money it's really just a joke it's they should really get serious about doing what the american people in

the american economy needs which is cut reckless government overspending we need to cut it dramatically immediately now and this is what they're refusing to do we can certainly start by defunding obamacare and of course how will this whole thing affect america's reputation as the walls leading economic power well depends on who you talk to other politicians in the world may buy into this theater because they want to keep their budgets high in their countries as well but people around the world don't want big government they want peace they want small government they want to be left alone to live their lives as long as they're not harming anyone else this is a leadership that the american lawmakers can choose to demonstrate to the world and we need to urge them to do that so how long from your point you're going to last and all lessons should washington's lawmakers learn from all this. will see typically they won't let it last long because none of them want to really

cut spending they want to continue high government spending they want to continue high government debt the libertarian party is running candidates to oppose that the individuals who are in congress by offering much lower spending much lower taxes removing the income tax removing entitlement programs cutting military spending but this is going to put pressure on lawmakers in the elections in two thousand and fourteen. cala how well up its cola direct so the us national libertarian party ms howell thank you very much indeed for sharing your views with us and for your time as well webber shit. and andrew k.p. an independent china specialist says if they don't like crumbles it has a lot of countries. china only the leadership but the whole of china is watching. them and because. if that is what democracy is supposed to work then fewer people

would want it america's economy is in the twined with so many other you calling me so is not very good news now if there should be a risk of default this would of course hasten the remaining based pace. for it to be fully covered it will become one of the reserve currencies. alongside with with with with the greenback. and also china has sunk a lot of money in u.s. treasuries and u.s. treasuries of course at the moment it in the dollar so i and other many other countries are also holding the u.s. dollar as part of the reserve currency polio so the impact will be very very large indeed all over the world. and wider range of social sections and services are being affected by their political stalemate ninety seven percent of nasa employees and neither working nor paid on the agency's fiftieth anniversary and the folks at tom jones a former nasa astronaut. i experienced the same thing myself back the last time we

had a government shutdown in one thousand nine hundred five and i was an astronaut and i was told i was an essential part of the agency so i did report to work during those days but it is frustrating because everyone has deadlines everyone has a schedule to keep and be told to just mark time and lose this time and makes everyone feel that they are there or not they're not able to do their job. and that the developments on capitol hill for you had on our website where now online team is constantly bringing you the latest updates on the markets federal shutdown that's waiting for you at the dot com. much more government shutdown until congress funds are you.

still in the program the conservative party conference in britain. standing speech from the prime minister david cameron the economic achievements of his government but after the break we'll look at what the behind the optimism made much ground.

the. economic downturn the find out. the new york and the rest because i was doing the makes you believe every week. this is all see welcome back now the leader of greece's far right golden dawn bossy

isn't cause to face charges of criminal activity and three senior members of the group have been released pending a future at trial in the murder of a left wing activist in gran'pa and your family is an audience for us. while the crackdown against golden dawn continues pay scimitar heavy police presence and paste in the party have appeared in court here in athens charged of being part of a criminal organization and that followed police making a direct link between the party and the death of an anti fascist rapper and while that action did quell a wave of public unrest following that death it has also produced a backlash from golden dawn and also from their supporters one of whom spoke to r.t. anonymously. i turned to court to show my support for the golden dawn m.p.'s it's unfair of the government to level these charges that the party and it will backfire and we demand a rise because at the moment we don't have the golden dawn will continue and it

will remain strong the party is the ideology not its people what you have to remember that despite all these events golden dawn still remains the third biggest political party increase it has eighteen elected m.p.'s and getting rid of them will not be easy it is against the law to ban any political party here in greece and even if you did put the politicians in jail they would still remain and pays what's more golden dawn is now threatening to remove all of its politicians from the parliament and that would trigger by elections and perhaps destabilize an already fragile coalition and in turn could jeopardize greece's chances of securing more european bailout money with the country already waiting to hear if it will receive the latest try and shift e.u. i.m.f. money worth one billion euros andrey farmer. russian investigators have filed formal charges against those who took part in an greenpeace protest and wish they stormed and oil drilling platform in the arctic

last month so far fourteen campaigners had meant piracy which could land them in prison for over a decade. the details for. the investigative committee has begun pressing official charges on the activist are being accused of piracy if found guilty they could be looking at up to fifteen years behind bars and authorities say that their actions didn't only threaten the lives of the oil rig staff but the environment as well greenpeace denies all the accusations claiming that it was a full protest and just remind you on the eighteenth of september a group of executives tried climbing onto an oil rig in the north of russia they were arrested by the federal security service and then all thirty were taken to the northern city of one square most of them are right now but their arrest was prolonged for two months spending an investigation we've heard earlier from president putin who said he didn't view that to assess pirates but he did say that

they violated the law and that it's not the first time that this particularly platform is targeted by greenpeace in august two thousand and twelve another group of its activists actually didn't manage to dock to the oil rig but back then they criticize it for a lack of security saying that it could potentially become a target for terrorists and now a lot of people are also raising the question why did they decide to target this particularly for the second time since clearly it's not in operation while there are others in the same region belonging to other countries which are in operation and. do you this particular wall rig is stationary which is in general considered to be a much safer technology compared to other similar sea platforms obviously this this discussion this court process is going to continue and of course we will be monitoring how it develops further. and of the latest protests greenpeace activists

interrupted a football game in switzerland they descended from the stadium roof unveiling dan is with slogans against the gas promise first so one of the teams the ban is called for the thirty and she was held in russia to be released. a new u.n. report says torture and treatment often leading to death is widespread and leave is in the bin trails an estimated eight thousand prisoners are held behind bars without trial on suspicion of having fought for ousted leader monica duffy and the report also says that torture is most common straight up to resto during the first days of interrogation in order to extract confessions in some cases armed groups freely admitted and try to justify the physical abuse of detainees the u.n. fears that if the eight fun option is not taken now there's a danger torture will become institutionalized across the new libya british

political ax was john grease things the ghosts of the nation led intervention are the reason for what's happening there. the truth of the matter is that the western intervention in libya destroyed any process or organic transfer of power from the gadhafi regime to the to the opposition if you come to power. under the a nato air bombardment you aren't necessarily going to have the popular legitimacy that is necessary to be able to found a stable the mind of just a ministration and that's the that is now the legacy which the west intervened intervention is because he used the libyan people they've been a state which doesn't have a popular legitimacy which is charged on all sides by militias which is breaking apart which is the supermarket idea which many of the jails are actually not one by effective state control at all. and staying with the africa we turn to our world

update this hour the al shabaab militants behind the bloody mall siege in rabbit last week threatened to increase their attacks in kenya soil after kenya refused to pull out its troops from somalia the al qaeda linked group claimed responsibility for the hostage crisis at the westgate shopping center in which over seventy people were killed it took three days to clear them all of insurgents. in brazil a teacher protests turned violent after police used tear gas and stun guns to disperse crowds from the streets the rear vision mirror says during demonstrators have been demanding more public spending on schools public health and transportation and there is a shortage of three hundred thousand teachers in brazil president dilma rousseff has approved and law that would reserve seventy five percent of all profits for education but protesters are skeptical about the legislation. and government shut down a military helicopter in iraq leaving for its crew members dead their aircraft was

carrying out a security mission but came under heavy fire crushing some one hundred and eighty kilometers north of baghdad and it's not clear yet who is responsible for the attack but the aires a stronghold of al qaeda militant group iraq is witnessing its worst wave of violence in recent years in september alone almost one thousand people were killed . the u.k. prime minister david cameron has portrayed the label opposition as out of touch in a speech to close his party's annual conference in manchester and he also took swipes at coalition partners the liberal democrats but was very complimentary about the performance of his own conservatives lower spare towels a small. i just want to start by referring back to ed miliband speech last week the leader of the opposition everyone trumpeted that as this as some people said it was the best speech of all time but it's kind of easy to make a speech if you're the leader of the opposition because all you have to do is talk about what you would do if you got into power if you will david cameron if you're

going to talk as prime minister about what you're going to do unfortunately you've also got to what you've failed to do so far what you just haven't got round to your shortcomings if you like so what do you do well david cameron started by trumpeting his considerable in some cases economic achievements so on employment in the u.k. is down construction manufacturing that up there are good figures in inward investment good figures in retail sales buildings on the increase business and consumer confidence all up fabulous but then of course you have to talk about the stuff that you haven't done yet of course you can try and blame it on the previous guys but ultimately it's down to you now can you or the prime minister say for example in this first world country he's talking about this proud nation he's got to tell us that a number of primary school children so eleven year old children who leave primary school without being able to read or write so essentially illiterate so he says we

still need to eliminate literacy in this first world country and given this land of opportunity that he kept on referring back to give those children a chance we also have a massive north south divide in this country which david cameron referred to the north is way less economically active than the south in fact unemployment in the north east is according to some figures twice what it is in the southeast so in london the surrounding areas the tories are looking at addressing that but how are they doing it they're doing it with this highly controversial high speed rail link will called h s two and if you go to any town or city that's being affected by h s t practically on any day of the week you'll find a small or large demonstration and of course the debt crisis it's not only. yet three years in three years of cuts in we still have in the u.k. one of the biggest deficits in the world and the damning prognosis made by david cameron in his speech is that of course if you don't deal with debt what follows swiftly afterwards is

a rise in cost of living really what matters is what people thought of the speech and as far as we can see at the moment it's a stark contrast to what they were saying about ed miliband speech last week they were bloggers are calling it a holding speech they're saying it's ok and solid so not necessarily what david cameron's going to want to herring. i made the u.s. government shutdown next bitola balinese get to debate whether america deserves to be called exceptional that's just ahead. do we speak your language anything about the will or not a day of. school music programs and documentaries and spanish more matters to you breaking news a little tonnage of angles couldn't stories. you hear. say
