1:02 pm
as prime minister i apologize for that failure and as prime minister i've taken responsibility for doing what we can to put things right. for the fire yet in britain for more than a hundred years broke out last wednesday it was only put out after twenty four hours the death toll currently stands up at least seventy nine people the reason government have been widely criticised for not doing enough huge crowds gathered in central london today demanding her resignation or smith has been speaking to the protesters. the march for this day of rage has arrived at his destination office at the houses of parliament which you can see just so from my left shoulder it's a right here there are speeches and a lot of shouting and a lot of feelings running very high the organizers that at the beginning of the day that that aim was to bring down the government and to shut down london well they've done an excellent job of shutting down london for the rest of that march which was
1:03 pm
around ten kilometers local away from shepherd's bush down to head west in the blistering means the organizers said that they had done it the original civil rights marches and she is in the tradition of the civil rights movements like it's almost a six mile walk in blazing heat but we feel like it has to be done that this government can no longer have authority over people's lives because they always will put profit before people always it's been it's what they've done and we're not prepared to allow that to continue it's about a wider question it's about what grenfell tower represents in the it's about it's about violence and murder that is being perpetrated against poor working class black an asian immigrant migrant communities in this country face march in reaction brucellosis terracing these people see them and until the immigrant attacks and of
1:04 pm
course the handling of the grunfeld howard disaster in which at least seventy nine people are known to have been to death although the death toll is expected to rise i was approached earlier by a quiet man who handed me a leaflet with a picture of a man on it he's that the man was his friend he had lived in granville tower he wasn't a protester he just wanted to know whether his friend was dead or alive and no information was coming i'm not so coleman theme on this march today people have been saying that they don't know how many people were living in grenfell it's how a lot of them. undocumented immigrants and so we possibly will never know how many people were killed in that fire there has been some movement from inside parliament of course today was the day of the queen's speech to the queen reopens parliament today and set out the agenda for the government and to reason may apologize for the aftermath of the tragedy let's say what will happen say do you accept terrible if she comes out here and maybe. we need to be everything and how
1:05 pm
we need to start working on it those people suffering this young. man you know. when they. say this is. do you think after this massacre they could just by people and everyone's going to shout serious say you know this is an injustice and louis needs to be trying. to have so getting away with this sort of. back. to to reason. for these. people in the house of parliament. a good part to play. well for more on this let's cross live to lindsay german from the stop the war coalition she is been on the demonstrations i lindsay thanks for joining us you are at the protest what was the mood of the crowd i mean what were
1:06 pm
you actually trying to achieve here know there were calls for the resignation of to resign my what was the main aim of this day of rage today. well i'm actually on a demonstration here now it's six o'clock i haven't been only on the march i think issues a role connected people are very very angry about the crime full time. blame furry for a march on a whole series of things to do with privatisation to do with government policy to do with. the clec by the council and we've seen this off to the far as well as before but i think it also symbolizes the longer which is now very free to voice it in terms of inequality where the post majority of people here do not benefit from the wealth which is invested here whether or not free flights which is. the time where we have people homeless on the streets in a free locality so i think these are the kind of issues that people are concerned
1:07 pm
about of course we just had an lecture where two reason might fail to get the reason she wanted she really is a prime minister and people are very very keen for some alternative policy. and you mention the quality of a divided london critics of season those reports that there was allegedly only five million pounds earmarked for the grenfell disaster and if i'm correct with these figures four hundred million has been put aside to renovate buckingham palace for example is this the sort of inequality you're talking about that's absolutely right that's absolutely right is nearly three million four hundred million from buckingham palace five million the initial cost of helping the ground and billions estimated on renovating the whole of the palace of westminster in other words the house of lords and the house of commons so people are saying why is it this endless money for the break in this city and in this country but the reason for the poor and there's a very really strong language term equipment. when he was standing for election
1:08 pm
which is the preakness and we want more public spending we want money spent on our health service announcing and schools and we are absolutely fed up with this climate of politics which is giving to the rich without them being expected to do anything you people are i would say i've lived in london all my life i've written a book about people's history of london i would say people are as angry now as at any time that i've known it or just like to tell you what what you. you mentioned earlier about to reason may be election because the reason why of course she's apologized for the disaster now she's admitted government isn't doing enough taking responsibility for that i mean do you think that's enough to keep people of success . on her mission of responsibility. i don't think so i mean it's obviously welcome that she has apologized. to even she is admitting things that come from the wrong but this is
1:09 pm
a council any other issue you much missed this was a flawed natural you imagine something happened it will be inconceivable that the council didn't have an emergency and didn't have somewhere to house is when the poor of london the night not least the chill for clothes and food for people furniture for people who've been helping they've been volunteering in these centers . this is exactly the kind of insensitivity which people fear from the tories and they're right kensington and chelsea council is majority. area and they are the rich. who make up a substantial part of their power and i'm afraid to raise my has lost credibility off the. air for most people think she's only here because the different factions in the tory party deciding when and now to get rid of her she has no credibility
1:10 pm
but the have a policy change in this country and there's no real sign. in which case they should really. try to government. from a stop the war coalition thanks for joining us here giving us your insight today on out thank you. thank you. meantime russia's defense minister has had two encounters with nato jets in just one day while flying over the neutral waters of the baltic sea the first happened while surrogate showgirl was flying to the russian city of. this video was filmed from his plane by journalists on board you can see a nato f. sixteen jet flying just meters from the wing tip russian su twenty seven then squeezed between them to ward off the fighter. the details. as you have just seen from the video a nadir sixteen fighter jet has tried to approach at the russian defense minister is plane flying about the neutral waters of the baltic sea now russian ass u.
1:11 pm
twenty seven which was the scoring of the minister's aircraft got in its way and title it its wings apparently showing that it is armed right after the ads of the sixteen flew away now the minister was on route to the russian city of kaliningrad the baltic sea for a scheduled working meeting and this incident was first reported by jordan all those who were on board of the aircraft saddam and suchlike of apparently become more frequently just this a monday a u.s. spy a plane flying toward the russian border made a provocative turn toward a baltic lead as you twenty seven which had been scrambled for an interception mission and encounters of such sword also took place right at the beginning of this june. claims that it has no knowledge show had no knowledge that the russian defense minister was on board the plane who would serve as sugar was heading back home jets followed him again this time though without approaching the aircraft.
1:12 pm
claims it's standard procedure the encounter comes at a sensitive time in russia u.s. relations. with the area of tension. in syria russia's foreign minister says he is currently waiting for an explanation from washington after a syrian military jet was shot down near the city of raka so i stress the pentagon is still treating various terror groups very differently for. the french we have to show that the u.s. is really tough as you. but we don't we call america bombing so actively. it's called known but it's constantly changing its name but it doesn't change its main. rushers now halted some corporation with us i was syria it's pulled out of the agreement to prevent collisions in syrian airspace meanwhile australia has announced this temporarily suspending operations in syria. will u.s.
1:13 pm
led coalition claims the syrian jet was downed in self-defense however in the last month it also has targeted government forces five times let's just take a look at where those attacks have taken place and the plane was shot down just southwest of the syrian city of rock you can see it just here where the coalition is supporting the kurds kurdish troops in their fight against myself now the u.s. led coalition has also bombed several other locations conducting bombing raids against pro-government fighters just here the southern border crossing in syria the pentagon side of the same justification for each raid that assad forces have breached a de confliction zone in this area and this and all the looks at how this military escalation may be reaching a boiling point. the u.s. shoots down as syrian plane over syria in self-defense the only action that we have taken against pro regime forces in syria and they've been to specific incidents have been in self-defense let's imagine a random guy comes into your house with
1:14 pm
a gun and shoots your dog and then he's like it was just self-defense i wanted to make sure there was no why lynds going on here t. as coalition speaking of deescalation after this self defense move the situation couldn't be worse russia now considers all u.s. led coalition planes in the area of potential targets and are tracking them all of this happened as both the u.s. and syrian government backed up by the russian air force were fighting isis in the stronghold of raka now to moscow have corns in syria again focus has shifted and isis is probably breathing a deep sigh of relief while watching syrian fighter jets crash in flames on the horizon good job superpowers you're not so super slick all questions are being asked whether the fight against terror has changed to outright military intervention and even u.s. census of join those critical of the pentagon's policy in syria. this is illegal
1:15 pm
war at this point and then there's the practical question the practical question is do it. killing every perceived enemy in every perceived leader of chieftain of five people in some misbegotten village is it helping are we going to defeat an ideology by killing people the united states and the coalition are there without any permission without any i mean for a party to be president and so when we when we not only do we enter syria and there are sauber an airspace. but now we have shot down a syrian jets we have been carrying out bombing attacks. and act of war of aggression under under international law will have a latest from the confederations cup games just so this will breaks they soon.

1:20 pm
welcome saying bosco we're back with all confederations cup coverage on sunday stan collymore found the result is indeed a sports with one russian nettle but start off by taking people through the absolutely christiane are rinaldo from a pound for pound the world's best player the debate continues whether similarly no messy for a very good growth across from the left on soit misses what for me is the best you can head to can score great individual goals back across the goal of both the have . been fired and that was enough to seal the deal for the portuguese national team brought do have to say no we won't stick to this second off there was a fight back and there were plenty of positives for charity so if the russian manager to take forward into that crucial follow going now against mexico i think within a minute go you know what potentially this might get out of hand but if you look at it now in hindsight young developing russian team looking to come back from a from
1:21 pm
a bad tournament last year it's not a disgrace is it against the european champion it's very much baby steps it's very much build and you'll see this pretty much all the white through for a nice shins across the world that had a great older generation of course when you think you have the russian saying the players it's good twins go on to be. the big man so them how to bring in fresh blood so in the score and of environments where russia do not have competitive qualifying qualifiers them being the home station of course this is a good test for them to die and one that they will be quietly quietly whispering that the songs and shoots of recovery from the national say ok just briefly it looks like we're going to have to beat mexico now. playing and i think it's because on a few days absolutely not i mean possibility by any means. reminds of the city was often sold expect mexico to new zealand the city in the lights again we'll be watching that as well and then going head to head to mexico and russia. and there
1:22 pm
and do a little bit of pressure exactly what you need you know right from the world will be a good test when it comes to a correspondent who was at the stadium the key point was watching the mansion he got a chance to speak to some of the fans and what exactly is being said after that result . hey guys it is wonderful to talk to you again can we say that fans are disappointed yes can we say that team russia supporters are in despair no doubt is because of the second half that you've just been discussing it wasn't really a wonderful second half but it does bring hope russia did put up a fight thanks to some of the aggressive play by the likes of small of salad of it also the man who was not in the starting line up but then only came out in the second half that is number seven dimitri paul is now thanks to these guys the fans that i've spoken to they are really full of hope for the game against mexico and as
1:23 pm
you were mentioning earlier right now it looks like that team russia will have to win that very tough game to qualify because mexico is likely to be on top of new zealand at the very end now going back to the game that just wrapped up at the spartak stadium behind me the man of the match according to fifo was chris channel ronaldo but really this is something that you don't have to ask about it was clear he was the one who score the only goal he was the one who got most of applause and the cheering from the russian crowd and i'll tell you what i even saw one russian female fan holding a poster saying christianity will you marry me. the live on air proposals that didn't come but if you do see that in terms of
1:24 pm
a test it was a good test today against portugal we mentioned and then no i still healthy bit of pressure now ahead of the mexico game for chad just. because you just asked me something because i can't hear you well. we did bring you know what it is so you can. combine both the to ask you again so thank you very much it was a beautiful on so let's quit let's quit while you're ahead and i just want to briefly say i think we're really just doing a great job but i said paul is the best player we should be on the pitch from the start this is the new management team the voice of experience and the young questionably how. different from earlier was a feeling from from. will plan as well. as the pressure builds to have to win if you want to get into the next stage and for me that's very healthy you know if they'd have won the first game win the second game and then drifted into the
1:25 pm
second stage now is the recent thing on it for them and that can only be good experience again leading into a world on those fields you know they would run to the course the first time it looked like it was going to be a pretty bad day for them but actually they had at least their share of the plane is taken off and they went old school with a limp and if you long balls in and actually push confronted up it's a little bit more nuance they need ply they got forward they started to throw players forward into its second positions perhaps need to finish. you know there are several players in that same now that need to step up to the plate against mexico and show real pretty great so there were very good signs in that second half of ply christiane over naldo you know if you the russian sporting public or if you support every christian on a rinaldo was finished off many it seem whether it be for. just you know if you go to portugal national city let's not forget absolutely no disgrace but it is crucial not good that we know mexico will be keeping our coverage go to the big makes co new zealand who knows maybe both of those major surprise of the children stay with
