being completely inadequate and many of the people who are angry about the planning which was done the food the building of the gas the systems were put in the room in the stairwell so when those coal fire it was a death trap and nobody could escape also the fact that ten million dollars spent on cosmetic changes to the outside of the building to make it look better off for rich residents who live nearby and it was that external cladding which caused the fire to spread so quickly and take so many lives so these protests is very angry at the time and but this is going to be a transformative point in the history of this country. judging by the response of members of the public or walking by and in their cause beeping in support that is a very popular course trees of may be visiting people hospitalized in the blaze she's also allocated five million pounds to those affected and demanded a full inquiry into the fatal tragedy but next the results is pretty boy to reports

a political chameleon to reason may has borrowed more than have fair share from the right as well in the run up to the e.u. referendum she was a quiet remain a but this was back then. people say the e.u. does not make us more secure because it does not allow us to control our border. but that is not true we were the voters but we want our country back a new role for ourselves in the world as a strong country with control over our borders. the single market accounts for a huge volume of all trade look at the facts the potential risks to jobs the uncertainties for our economy if we were to leave the european union framework of the single market i would say is a beginning but you must be optimistic about what i am proposing cannot mean

a law and i'm sure you'll move forward to world during the queen's speech just as soon as the coalition of chaos has been negotiated. possible the labor party stands ready to offer a strong. politico r.t. london. elsewhere reported today the. u.s. justice department has been giving advice to the american public on handling potential fake news especially concerning anonymous sources in a statement by the deputy attorney general he said caution should be exercised when watching or reading news attributed to unnamed officials next of a girlfriend says and the argo explains why the justice department has spoken out. the pedia turny general rosenstein statement has raised quite a few eyebrows especially considering that as of late majority of the american press relies on nothing but not
6:08 am
a most sources on the den of sources two sources with links to the counter intelligence community anonymous sources according to anonymous washington post source while the mainstream media seems to love them the justice department is busy reviewing all the fakes no wonder they're getting quite fed up with them at the d.o.j. take a look at this washington post headline claims that rosenstein threatened to resign after the white house cast him as the prime suspect for suggesting to fire the x. of the i directed james komi when asked about this by journalists mr rosenstein claimed he never said such a thing now c.n.n. a regular in anonymous sources came out saying that according to sources told me would testify that he never told trump that he was not under investigation only as kind of a slick i took away from it what he did which was he said i've been assured that i'm not under any investigation so trump took away kind of this blanket assurance
6:09 am
which we believe comey will say he did not give the president but when mr comey testified he said the exact opposite he actually told mr trump three times that mr president you are not under investigation c.n.n. even retracted their article confirming the original fake news story or how about this new york times article where not even a sources cited but rather the n.y.t. types it out like a fact that komi days before being fired asked the d.o.j. for more prosecutors and personnel to accelerate the f.b.i.'s investigation into alleged russia's interference in the presidential election but guess what the justice department flatly denied that komi met with rosenstein to ask for more resources and here is house majority leader kevin mccarthy can. firming that these allegations are nothing but faults one of the questions were. for public reserve but he said he's already said it that he has no evidence dick only asked for the
6:10 am
resources that all these agents with good glowing n.y.t. and now c.n.n. is raising eyebrows with their exact quote being or what as the reaction to mr rosenstein is anonymous source a statement wow can it get any better than this in the world of mainstream media even managed to offer their justice department big advances and giago r.t. . at least eighteen people have been arrested during a protest in the us state of minnesota now after a police officer who shot dead a black man was found not guilty of manslaughter. hundreds took to the streets and blocked roads after the court's decision was announced thirty two year old philander cuz still it was gunned down in front of his girlfriend and her daughter during a routine traffic stop last july the police officer who pulled the trigger was charged with several counts including second degree manslaughter but has been fully cleared the victim's family called the ruling racially motivated despite the

office's acquittal he has been dismissed from g.t. . the u.n. and human rights watch dogs are seriously concerned of what they say is a mounting civilian death toll from u.s. led airstrikes against islamic state and the reported numbers of much higher than those admitted by washington. the u.n. says hundreds of civilians have reportedly been killed in recent astroids in the embattled syrian city of raka the eisel held there is under siege by the u.s. backed local forces in support of western warplanes but across the border in iraq. civilian deaths are also being reportedly on the rise in the islamic state stronghold of mosul which is again but under a similar siege for months the u.s. led coalition has also been accused of using chemical weapons near civilians in
6:12 am
both cities in what could potentially a full to war crimes. reports. the u.s. coalition is more than willing to update the world on its activities against the islamic state in iraq and syria who have successfully been able to take ground from isis already in rocka are recently walked the streets of east and west mosul i saw for myself that markets and their businesses are reopening so things are moving around the city and living their lives however u.n. investigators paint a very different picture of iraq in just a few. strikes we each have behaved at the ground for the various. has resulted not to all the staggering loss of see if you don't life but because also led to two hundred hundred sixty thousand civilians fleeing their homes. in devon to displease the united states insists that less than five hundred civilians
6:13 am
have been killed throughout the entire campaign over the last three years in iraq and syria however the united nations points out that three hundred civilians have been killed in the last four months in iraq alone and the situation in mosul is even worse this is just one example one of these strikes in the area that somewhere between fifty and eighty civilians may have been killed the airplanes hit our street and we went to rescue people under the rubble we risk you do as we could see and then we left the area on top of that the u.s. led coalition is being accused of using white phosphorous. u.s. leaders won't confirm whether or not they're using the lethal chemical munition. however they say that if they are they're doing it in a manner that's consistent with international law but human rights watch points out this chemical puts civilians in great danger burning their flesh down to the bone
6:14 am
even a minor burn from this toxic powder can be fatal white phosphorus has been used in syria and iraq previous occasions but since a dental effects can can cause terrible injuries to a question is what is it hitting on the ground and adequate provisions being taken to ensure that civilians and not falling victim to white phosphorous that's the nature of urban warfare fighting in close confines with civilians and legitimate targets closely mixed in with each other and there's only one way forward for the u.s. coalition we have already shifted from attrition. from one position to another iraq syria to annihilate two billion cattle or a fact of life in this sort of situation looks like the united states has made their choice about how they're going to go about defeating i still the only question left is how many more people are going to die for that to happen. r.t. new york if you're
