8:02 pm
left homeless following what's on rubble there will be people who are saying this is becoming the final straw with the unhappiness of following the decisions that this government has been making not only that when germany were being old so but brought up the idea of giving the residents were affected by grand fellow residential properties there are so awfully available that area and standing empty in those neighborhoods is something that's been brought into the spotlight and has been also something largely about econ be acceptable but in london we have looked through buildings and luxury flats left empty as land banking for the future while the homeless and the poor look for somewhere to live and listen to what some of the protesters have been telling us here throughout the day if the empty and they have been for six months why not give them to someone temporarily and i mean that that grady just made it it's been a long drop really foreign investors just come in force up all the flights and most
8:03 pm
of the money you can use and yet we have hung the snow switched on the by fifty percent in the couple you know there's an obvious inequality that we need to start thinking about the people that actually live here not the people that are buying houses you know for millions of pounds and then leaving them in fifty six seven months what happened was by many here see as something that's just a symbol of the huge disparity that exists here in the u.k. and in london between the wealthier and those who are a little less well off. people have been gathering out a church near grand fella tower. to pay their respects to the victims and offer of support among the volunteers was former world champion boxer amir. i want to come here i have a foundation myself i want to call me and show my support by doing charity work amazing money for these people and also. from the police why was this situation notified to happen and everything else and what a situation like at the moment i really believe we can we can not run out you know
8:04 pm
if you read me you did not. know how you're going to serve. time i mean. look i want to we wanted to let you go we want to. think what can she do i think she's just got to start acting as a as an actually that you know coming out and talking to people and engaging with people in a human way as opposed to acting like you're always at a press press briefing every time there is a long string of things and i think it's just been more and more frustration from even from myself as a british citizen of someone a supposed to be this strong and stable leader and you show nothing but the opposite and i think it's really getting to a boiling point well in the coming days prime minister treason may is expected to name a judge to lead a public inquiry into the ground cell tower fire she has also told consul to can talk to urge and safety checks on all the similar tower blocks unallocated five million dollars to help the survivors. officials in
8:05 pm
afghanistan say seven american troops have been wounded in an attack by a rogue afghan soldier on a base in the north of the country the u.s. this mr earlier reports that american soldiers being killed the taliban says it was responsible although that claim has been disputed we heard from a journalist in kabul. an afghan soldier used a rocket propelled grenade during a military exercise on the way to the shooting range or the shooting range and according to this officer several u.s. soldiers were wounded this comes not long after a afghan commander killed at least three u.s. soldiers in the eastern province of. the base where the incident today took place is where at least ten thousand attackers killed more than one hundred forty army soldiers in april and what was a massive security breach you have to remember the taliban are expanding their area
8:06 pm
for a crude meant from where the afghan police and army recruits so the risk of afghan soldiers or new recruits being turned into taliban infiltrators is really high. over the attack came as the country's defense minister welcomed a decision by the u.s. to deploy four thousand more troops to afghanistan and the many see as unlikely to improve the situation there. these four thousand troops they cannot defeat the taliban in afghanistan they just won the fighting to continue so they can achieve their goals with more american troops in afghanistan people will get more frustrated and insecurity will increase i think i would agree with many afghans in this what afghans are really asking is two things one is push for peace process and second pressurising the pakistani taliban sanctuaries are actually terror
8:07 pm
because troops the military solution is no is not a solution for the afghan problem and i think the americans must have realized as well because you see there are similar comments coming from the american officials particularly those from india on policy but you know it's contradicting what they're doing and what they're saying at one hand they believe that it has to be peace process peace settlement that can. work but in the other hand they are sending additional troops. the first day of the confederations cup has come to a close a winning start for a host russia beat new zealand in some petersburg with more in the game plus all the latest from the tournament here is neil harvey and stan collymore.
8:08 pm
federation's got pages we have to draw to a close here in st petersburg russia after they secured to no victory over new zealand and we have a game alongside me stan collymore stan we're going to take our viewers through the goals of who is a very good performance overall from from russia lots of pressure on them the first game they were very poor in the european championships of course so they needed a good result to get the tournament underway paulo's there is he said with the finish very easy ball comes in from the rights and side for a central striker always in attack and we just need to get in the box to make sure that you can finish off so very good room after say feel a little bit sorry for the new zealand goalkeeper because he was very good throughout the game but just that little ding called the goalkeeper sees the ball in the back of the net and the housework open running. ok we also have
8:09 pm
a great day really into speaking to the top players and we grabbed a few moments with the guys themselves from the russian team after their victory here's what they had to say it was huge first of all we play for our fans and i think today we made them happy i think it was a good game is the most significant thing is that we won everything else is less important. thing you've seen there used to that we learn we didn't spoil this great day for our fans that's important for me there was a lot of pressure on us of course with the hosts we played for the first time in front of our president and i go along to hopefully bigger and better things if you're a supporter now ok partridge was simply to find song imagine she met quite a few happy families you can imagine the noise here is really quite something not easy let the blue touch paper think it's also let there be a cake series well there's plenty of beer fly. when it is off to rule the city of culture and just before we have kick off in this very very merry and happy of environments we speak to some of the fans and they were anticipating
8:10 pm
a very good sort of mint as well well we came to russia because you we've been keeping a marvelous country it's amazing what you have here and your history little if we should be tales that there are still their world so we wanted to know your country and panel phone and many have been there every day here at this time and i am very much excited. america. is going to win and then. luciana out. you could tell by seville the year the cheering fans there and i think you were just lucky enough to miss some of the fans will keep past as well you have to say it fine voices well so when you said you're happy environment for the russia for the fight fans is in the first match of the confederations cup you can hear them but you know what those funds are very happy but if they've been listening to some of the western media they might not even turned up even watch the game some fans who came here were warned by the media back in the home countries about what they might come across during the competition e.g. new zealand herald for example published an article that accused russian fans of
8:11 pm
racism and said that they could not be trusted for trying to a correspondent but with some new zealand supporters right here in st petersburg and he asked them about what would their experience of the place so far have spoken to a number of new zealand fans outside the stadium you come up to them you ask them about the only gives you ask them about the problems then they look back at you and they're baffled all these people have told me that they're having an amazing time in st petersburg they haven't experienced any problems and definitely they wouldn't believe and they disagree with the stuff that was written in the household of all the russian hooligans on an overnighter if you want i think i. just russian playboy absolutely fantastic he will be for arbor a white male and the russian people have extended their hospitality to wash my car and i'm. a shell found somebody. actually it is very quiet it says no trouble that we've seen in this town center. pockets i didn't leave any.
8:12 pm
of the stuff so you know one of the great benefits of the car federation scott well be the memories that the fans will bring back home but there are no british teams taking part in this tournament so there won't be many people coming back to the cape tell the brits how people in this country really do get offended when you kate media are saying that football culture in russia is only about violence yes of course there are some problems still but issues exist in any country in fact here's a little history lesson for you in football for years when did football related violence first become a problem we don't know for sure but it can be traced way back to fourteenth century. back then it wasn't so much the beautiful game as a rowdy mass brule between rival villages kicking a pig's bladder across town kid with the second word this could lead to social
8:13 pm
unrest the game cases of football hooliganism in the modern game fast forward to the eighty's that's when the so-called roughs started causing trouble at football matches talking rival fans and players as well as referees but the heyday of hedonism and the actual term came about a century later starting from the sixty's clashes between rival supporters of both into pulled a knife fights between large gangs of hardcore fans the so-called phone in the first five years of the decade is twice as much violence is that the previous twenty five british hooliganism spread rapidly during the seventy's and eighty's becoming known abroad as english disease groups it's tragic peek at the european cup final in one thousand nine hundred five when the liverpool fans attacked. there a time in running for causing a cool stadium to collapse killing thirty nine people after the disaster in this clubs were banned from pool in europe income taxes
8:14 pm
a government could plant down and look at this by the one nine hundred ninety s. football related violence in the u.k. gradually began to wane but the reputation. when england failed to qualify for the one nine hundred ninety four usa world cup committee chief was delighted with the no england for. the with three countries in the world whose presence would have created logistical problems so we're very pleased they will be coming that's the route iran. in the coming years many key international tournaments where marks quite badly behaved in the. nowadays football hooliganism is of course not in the english but international disease one that thankfully isn't as prevalent as it used to be. ok and stan i want to use a word now that i enjoyed i know you you appreciate these meanings of all context
8:15 pm
so let's just say we know it's a small number of hooligans that are out there let's just say it's a few doesn't say it but rob we got forty five thousand capacity stadium for example it takes about tax stadium that's less that's well no point one per cent of the people in there found accused of being involved in trouble get entire nation blamed for the actions of a tiny number of people and from a that is the problem i've seen it with the contador support of trouble and supported as a farm and as a broadcaster and i've been lucky enough to where the three lions and england file their reputation preceded them and still continues to do and i think what's happened is a lot of the anger a lot of the fear of the operating room we saw violence in marseilles for example i was there last year is that it's been transposed into a whole nation is pretty low. three i'm going to sort it for the european championships back in two thousand and twelve in ukraine there was a documentary that say do not go to ukraine if you're english if you or i should if
8:16 pm
you're black so i went there was a broadcast with a great deal of trepidation what did i find nothing but calling this government supporters mingling a muffler means the biggest and the saddest thing about all these torments is that people want to get together and have a poll to every four years it's a world cup and a european championship. thanks santa tons which is not truthful we're going to go in to save peter's good pub sick with the local fans are going to watch will come and save again said mates to the biggest. rally he sees a real welcome i think the real russia we asked awesome action of a home that was. how big of possibilities it was an eight person full of russian national see over the weekend the call display a lot of snow. sounds. sleeveless should be a very good price this is called the world cup will slap full flags asian football
8:17 pm
fans feel welcome in some places for commercial purposes leno was not accustomed to . the bombers from the show when you look at those but i. don't think you have singled out that whole said a couple of years ago that every time he played there was an issue of five space race chad's comments about how considerate not just any of the positive not just but then your families for example because you didn't have much you had to buy this stuff which you feel so used to but you talk about the money shouldn't have to be admissible into. the shitter that i use is this relevant to the miss yes or no. sight very good. we do want to talk about little belong to things all the nicer things now we took my predictions today to the list look at. this look at the hammer to first because

what you. heard on american media q one theory anywhere else this story was completely almost completely left out of the western mainstream press you won't see anywhere else this is not talked about on c.n.n. because it's not allowed you'll see it anywhere else things you'll hear on crossfire. hello again the u.s. justice department is advising the public to be wary of news stories that rely on anonymous sources but deputy attorney general highlighted the need for extra caution when all named officials are sided with aren't even specifying their branch of government with more hear or smell francis on to apple. that video turny general
8:21 pm
rosenstein statement has raised quite a few eyebrows especially considering that as of late majority of the american press relies on nothing but anonymous sources on the den of sources on the 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 conflict and i took away from it what he did which was he said i've been
8:22 pm
assured that i'm not under any investigation so trump took away kind of this blanket assurance which we believe comey will say he did not give the president but when mr komi 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 confirming that these allegations are nothing but false one of the. questions were. public present but he
8:23 pm
said he's already said it that he has no evidence that only asked for the resources that all the regions with good knowing 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 sources statement wow can it get any better than this in the world of mainstream media even managed to offer the justice department began francis and thiago r.t. . u.s. led airstrikes have killed hundreds of civilians in the area surrounding rock in syria according to a u.n. panel the islamic states from is under siege by u.s. backed local forces with the support of western. across the border in iraq civilian deaths are also rising in mosul which has been under a similar scenes for months write scripts have accused the u.s. coalition of using incendiary weapons near civilians in both cities and what could

8:25 pm
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 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 put civilians in great danger burning their flesh down to the bone even a minor burn from this toxic powder can be fatal 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 we show them from one position to another in iraq and syria to annihilation tactics two billion
