3:02 am
a damaging public debate on the extent of the interception of communications of course ironically that public debate already underway in most part of key t.v. ad with state of papers revelations indeed in a couple of weeks time we're going to see the heads of m i five m i sixty c.h.p. for the first time ever giving information in public as they questioned the edward snowden revelations now that's going to be full cost lives but there will be a shoot delay in transmissions for me any information should that be something that isn't deemed admissible now perhaps as that public debate unfolds we'll see t.c. we out some of that media friendly high profile figure it is because the documents also revealing that they have a list of people to deal with press handling but the guardian newspaper really pulling no punches saying once again that this is a breach of trust in the u.k.

a case of calls telephone being but then we have the likes of kiefer speaking out and saying it's a real scandal when actually when it's a case of ordinary citizens that's what the real scandal is the real scandal is the true extent of mass surveillance in the e.u. and of course beyond. also pointed out there british prime minister has been quite reluctant to a firm stance on global surveillance what's been clear is that david cameron is not willing to speak up in defense of britain and the british people when it comes to mass surveillance and indeed we've seen the extent of juicy h.q.'s collusion with the n.s.a. for example in the temp or a program we've seen massive harvesting of the data through the fiber optic cables so i'm afraid we need to start to take responsibility in the united kingdom. this
3:05 am
bide here a pin heads of state a voice saying that is that is factual that the washington and its monitoring practices the anger whereas it don't seem to have turns in that any kind of accent i thought my u.n. diplomat laid of a nice explains why. and a few weeks out of the media toned down the big issue it will just go on and business as usual that is my expectation they will not that big and the real national stage will remain states for a mental problem in i mean their problem is not that they're spying their problem is the score as if part of this year is that they have been god that's flying not that's another that's another matter altogether the divine is why do they do that not to chase terrorists that do that for economic reasons they want to know what you are going to do towards the brics countries throughout asia to war because they are afraid that they're losing ground. i will closely watching the n.s.a.

3:07 am
practice that he believes public debate should go through the government and not be swept under the rock if there is anything hurting anyone it is the n.s.a.'s activities and hide behind the secrecy that's enabled those abuses to continue themselves is cowardly quite frankly in a democracy and if these programs are important to national security as they claim and are in fact compliant with the constitution which they are not they should survive the light of day and small overdue for congress to have a transparent debate about whether or not we want to live in a country with prevail pervasive surveillance or instead we actually mean it when we sing anthems at baseball games about living in the way of the free. just a few minutes away a hidden addiction. when it breaks down and i digest system it turns into a substance relative to morphine a drug and it gives those little stimulation in our brain and gives us a little bit of pleasure shortly we'll look at how an entire industry it is designed to keep waistlines in the you was growing.
