these over and over again will be given examples of muslim extremist terrorism we hear about but because we'll hear a parent's muslim radicalization of this report looks at it through the wrong end of the telescope i believe some muslims seek to have no relationship whatsoever with british society they have chosen not to integrate it why should it be up to british society to extend to them when they are quite a section of them are quite clearly not interested in our traditions and respecting our laws reality is this. well integrated a society muslims are here to stay we are not anywhere you will not get to shut the borders down and overwhelming as your general election there are a lot of time in the movement i honestly i don't think you should need a corner left looking for social well then how would you like managed looking for this looking for change looking to get your parents talking about foreign policy austerity i'm trying to point out that there's a section of those limbs who seem to have
10:30 am
a problem with so much that characterizes pretty modern british society the pluralism the acceptance of people who have different sexual preferences the except i mean the desire to have shari'a law which apparently one in three muslims want that seems to me essentially inconceivable with a desire to integrate anti muslim hysteria is being fuel is being pumped primed in british society led by the media and far right hate preachers no it's just i truly deal with the facts of the matter it is alarm for us it's a section of radical islamists who have brought fear and terror to the streets of this united kingdom i believe in a free press that has a right to say whatever it wants a free press that can report matters and chooses british media demonizing and persecuting religious minority and in fact the european commission have recommended regulation of the british media because of as they say overwhelming a slam of fabian racism. and i eighty one year old man has made
10:31 am
a two thousand kilometer journey by road all the way from the west of germany to the russian city of st petersburg but the trip took much longer than you might expect as the pensioner did it all on a vintage tractor and he says it was worth every moment. i came to st petersburg because i wanted to get to know the contrie and the people to leave here. but i believe i'm overwhelmed right now because for so many people around and i see that they're interested in leaps and want to meet me i can't put into words the feelings i'm experiencing right now.
10:32 am
the e.u. has announced more funding for italy which is struggling to handle a new wave of migrants coming from africa and wolly with officials keep saying they're willing to help it's far from convinced. we do believe we can to leave italy or greece on its own. if you can keep up and i'd like to say that it want to help to address this issue. that we had left a lot the public has taken twelve posen that hungry have taken. not good enough you know earlier we spoke to william spengler spokesman for the un's refugee agency the u.n. h.c.r. he thinks its neighbors don't have the political will to help from my current crisis. italy certainly needs financial help from europe but it also needs solidarity and the rest of europe also needs to take their own responsibility this crisis is affecting very few countries in europe many countries have not seen
10:33 am
a single refugee or migrant or very few so what we need is a proper responsibility sharing directly with all countries that are being affected from europe we don't think that italy on its own can handle the situation seems that there is a lack of political will from all the countries to. take on the responsibilities in this matter europe on. reach the political we're talking about five hundred million people we're talking about the richest and most developed economies in the world of course the resources are there but this responsibility needs to be shared equitably among older member states of the european union. after the break we're expecting to talk to the deputy editor of the spectator about the c.n.n. blackmail scandal.
10:34 am
i think you guys are stuck in an alternate reality and russia today and sport and various n.g.o.s put out a set of facts that simply do not accord with reality you have constructed an alternative reality here in russia that makes it very difficult for you to cooperate with others. and with more make this manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes project themselves. in the final.
10:35 am
we can all middle of the room six. million more you really. do colin is still exist. rico's treated as one as our own oil co-equals and. only on the portal for equal i see little can i do i want to see it doesn't make. the island is controlled by the us government and some puerto ricans crave independence joe it was the almighty god you know getting up i don't know. either way but i'm going to sort out i mean what were they going. still many do wish to join the u.s. . every day. with
10:36 am
the country at a crossroads the island is on the rise. welcome back to the program not by tossed top story this hour american news network c.n.n. has been accused of blackmail off track down the person behind the donald trump arresting clip the channel threatening to reveal his identity if he makes another video like the one well love. to freddie gray the deputy editor of britain's spectator magazine friday welcome to the program here. what do you think of c.n.n. threats to release private information about this man. well i think it's childishness all round really donald trump tweeted a video of himself a body slamming a figure with the c.n.n. head imprinted on it this was obviously trolling or trying to wind up c.n.n.
10:37 am
they bit on the bait. and traced back to the person who came up with that video who created that video. and effectively silenced him effectively blackmailed him. now it's shown that he's been a fifteen year old boy and they're in trouble for it so i think it's childish of donald trump in the first place it's equally told it's of c.n.n. and it's quite funny in the case of c.n.n. because their network takes himself so seriously that they've been shown to be as childish as tom drum the point is that the the fact that this is an extremely strong reaction coming from a major network with a refutation and you know stomping their feet it's actually blackmailing an individual he's created something that was a fact affectively a comedic clip. yes well i mean in the same time it wouldn't get too much you know the family now tweeting triumphantly about that being more childish i'd say because
10:38 am
after all they are supposed to be representative of the present united states who really shouldn't be getting into these kind of got your media walls which are really unworthy of a gutter press let alone the presidency and a very big news network the whole time and if you look at the whole tone of the c.n.n. article it created the impression of the lecturing the creator of the video you're a journalist i'm a journalist how appropriate do you find that coming from a network like c.n.n. . well i think we all know those journalists not never to take one line comments too seriously and really they shouldn't i think they saw an opportunity to get trump to revenge themselves as they like and they they tried to take it it but. it was a silly move on their part because you have no idea who montrose are or people pumping out content on the internet so it's best to try and rise above it can be difficult i know picky when you're being abused but they really should have known better yeah
10:39 am
the videos create a apparently apologize and removed the post so what else does c.n.n. want from this person. well i mean i think now they'll they might have a lawsuit on nancy sutley being encouraged to file a lawsuit against them but i'm not you know i mean he's a obviously a young silly boy i don't want to sort of get into a situation where he becomes a martyr of this story i think the idiocy here is on the people at c.n.n. who thought to be a good move to try and attack trump through an online twitter troll and also the d.c. of the trump family both for using a gift which is silly and i don't want some pompous but a bit demeaning of the presidency yeah if you look at the tensions you know how much i evil ready mention that you know trump did re tweet it even mention the childishness but how much does the recent tension do you think between c.n.n.
10:40 am
and the trump team contribution to this very strong reaction from c n n about this video. well i mean we're getting to a situation now where we're perhaps moving slightly away from the endless talk about russia which i'm sure you've covered a lot. and more towards as you have to quite rightly and more towards a situation where trump is making the media the story just because it. helps him you know everybody knows that the leader is unpopular the public and that he won the presidency a bit like jeremy corbyn so much success in this country by saying the media laws and media laws and the more he can say that the more he can make the story the media the less people will focus on his presidency and i don't think that's a healthy situation in any democracy. they're also saying that the clip in science violence against journalists how true do you think this is. that sort of i want to swear so i want complete rubbish. you know it's just what happens on twitter and
10:41 am
everyone needs to grow up a bit about it yeah i mean some are saying that from so loud you know enjoy it with his followers there's a saying that his behavior is unpresidential contradicting that what are your thoughts on. why he argues that this is modern day presidential and that he's i'm sure in his head he thinks he's playing our pioneering and amazing new way of communicating with the public i'm not sure i agree with i think it's important that presidents retain some dignity and obviously that's quite tricky with trump given his past but he shouldn't sort of indulge in in this sort of childish trolling it is effectively trolling of the media what's interesting fred you know i've deferential you've seen as well there's worse stuff on the internet isn't there than this wrestling video and yet this is created such a stir in the media. yeah i mean that's the thing is that journalists i'm sure you know tend to be quite pompous take themselves very very seriously and so they react
10:42 am
very angrily when they feel that in america american journalists many of them a great they also they they consider the importance of the fourth estate to be paramount and so they don't like it when they feel that they are under attack and in america in the last year you've seen this real sort of surge of anger about the way that trump is destroying the credibility of the media. and i think it's unnecessary and i think to to to react to trump in this way is to almost prove him right. if we look at the network itself the reputation has been on shaky ground recently there's been a retraction of of a russia related story story resignations allegations of putting ratings before facts. how do you think c.n.n. is handling all the stuff that's been going on well again as i say i think they are in danger of overreacting to trump and trump ism and to taking what
10:43 am
happens on twitter for too seriously but at the same time i think we shouldn't get carried away we shouldn't join the sort of trumpets and saying it's a fake news network and all that's rubbish it does a lot of very good journalism. it's mishandled the trump presidency and particularly the direct attacks on c.n.n. but it's still a major network and i don't think it's you know joining all these trumpets on twitter calling it use ok listen freddie gray the deputy editor for the spectator magazine been great to have you on the show and to have your journalistic expertise thanks. wrestling video may not be the only thing that c.n.n. would find offensive if it looks online it would have quite a job tracking all the relevant content down. elect.
10:44 am
ily ily ily. ily. ily ily. ily lol. yeah do the same. people that can't be cheap. and then you went through all that come thru still looms but ideas on their right to call you a scum he said if you ever look to the past. you
10:45 am
discount because this is what we don't understand how we are in such. as a person to. notice. the one of the similar the symbol. of on board not the got. with the phone about the couple that with the plane. come back to the place story you have to see. you. joe. blue. blue blue knew. what we see on television left wing say advocates left wingers out there and they're shutting down professors from speaking at
10:46 am
college and so shutting down colleges here that this is an example of them being or acting in an offer terry off our tarion passé become little dictators yes and this is really linked to the fact that as children they were completely shielded from any of the so-called dangers of life kept in a bubble and so when they become young adults anything that disrupts a bubble a loud sound like a professor saying something that doesn't agree with them they go into shock they go into stuff like meltdown. you can't call it has held a hearing on whether to lift tony blair has immunity from prosecution over the iraq
10:47 am
war. smith reports. the background to this is that last year a private criminal prosecution was brought against tony blair and it was blocked by judges because it was ruled that blair would have immunity against criminal prosecution so there was no point proceeding with it this case could see that immunity overturned it could see him face charges and in fact the charge that they want to level is one of aggression to the second aim of this case is to establish whether aggression is in fact a crime under english law this attempt to private prosecution is based on the findings of last year's chilcote inquiry report was published last year and it concluded that the war at the time wasn't a last resort which of course it should be that the consequences of the invasion were severely underestimated and that post conflict planning in iraq was wholly inadequate despite all this tony blair has been in public life off and on ever
10:48 am
since then in fact earlier this year he announced that he would be making a comeback to politics because of break that now when he said that he faced the now familiar cries of war criminal but he remains utterly unfazed by those listen to this. iraq war and his responsibility for the crimes of you. regard him as someone who should step back into politics which reputation for being a warmonger. they really should be imprisoned these war criminals the reaction to the war has kind of destroyed your preschool. not for me it's not i mean you know people say that. with this immunity being lifted or of course the relatives of those who died in the iraq war and in fact the families of soldiers who were killed crowd funded one hundred fifty thousand pounds last year and they've used that money to have this chilcote report forensically examined to see. whether there is
10:49 am
grounds for prosecuting tony blair the hearing is over for now there's another week being allowed just of missions to be made if it's not dismissed it will then go to the supreme court who will decide whether this crime of aggression is indeed a crime under english law but the families of those involved may yet get bad day in court with tony blair from a british ambassador all of a mile says the courts are the wrong way to go about holding blair to account i don't expect legal proceeding will get anywhere our accomplish or my my guess is that it won't lead to a result i think tony blair was a war criminal i've said that in public before but i'm not convinced that taking him to court to court is the right way to deal with an issue like this we live in a parliamentary democracy i'd like to see it don't with politically but i think the end result will be that we'll have to say if tony blair was to be dealt with as he
10:50 am
should be dealt with it would have to be bar followed and that means impeachment are much more going to happen operate. russia's foreign minister has warned against attempts to bring about regime change in north korea in relation to a proposed un security council resolution on the nuclearization of the korean peninsula that's after south korean and u.s. forces fired missiles into the sea of japan in retaliation for a north korean test missile launch ati's kate part partridge has more. all of this press conference is to do with the escalation of the situation over the sea of japan so i pointed out as you said that the un security council said there must be denuclearized nation of north korea but he was at pains to point out that this should not be a pretext for regime change in north korea by the west he also said that there shouldn't be a means of solving this particular conflict by use of force nor would it be acceptable if there to be any strangulation or suffocation of north korea by
10:51 am
economic means either or those other negatives those are things that they didn't want to happen let's go towards a positive things are what change they do want to put forward russia and china have put together a pack of measures that they propose and they're going to put forward to the u.n. security council as a way of resolving this particular situation and also as we were seeing yesterday the leaders of both countries they presented to the media their plan their initiative to help solve this particular situation the side suggests north korea voluntarily declares a moratorium on nuclear tests missile launches and that the u.s. and south korea refrain from joint drills. well this joint action between the russian and chinese premiers came kind of in response to a tweet from u.s. president donald trump who urged china to take heavy action against north korea in what he called to do it once and for all while this follows on from a background from tuesday when pyongyang claimed that they'd launched an intercontinental ballistic missile in syria which could reach the mainland of the united states but the russian foreign ministry said that it only traveled about
10:52 am
five hundred fifty kilometers and fell harmlessly into the sea of japan and certainly no threat to russia in response though the u.s. arabs the south koreans decided to operate what they called joint military drills with easily deployable missiles pointed towards north korea in case of any conflict where all of this now of course is an escalating situation and we're now waiting for the response of the u.n. security council following that proposal put forward by russia and china the latest tweet from the u.s. president has targeted the economic ties between china and north korea donald trump beijing for increasing its trade with pyongyang by forty percent in the first quarter of this year chinese officials maintain that their trade relations with north korea do not violate any u.n. resolutions. we talk to several analysts about how u.s. involvement has influence the north korean crisis. each time.
10:53 am
we spawns more. and more certain. so why are all our noise. i think what the u.s. and south korea are doing is basically flexing their muscle to show we're not afraid of north korea we also have big bad weapons but what they're doing is is is answering fire with fire in a region that is a powder keg slightest miscalculation on the korean peninsula can trigger a conflict that basically mieris the entire region in a protracted war that could have catastrophic consequences not only for the region but also for the global economy and that is not in anyone's interest. in a controversial move canada is reportedly set to pay eighty million dollars compensation and apologize to a convicted murderer who was tortured during his time in the guantanamo bay detention camp back in two thousand and two omar kadar was captured by the u.s.
10:54 am
in afghanistan and tamed for the alleged murder of an american soldier how there was transferred to guantanamo bay where he was held for more than a decade in twenty ten canada's supreme court ruled that the man had been tortured during his detention and later that year he pleaded guilty to the murder of the soldier he was transferred to canada in twenty twelve to serve the rest of his sentence but was released in twenty fifteen he claims he made his admission of guilt under duress we spoke to another bag graham and guntown and no prisoner who met however during his detention i was held in the background detention facility facility in afghanistan when almost father was first brought into custody and i spent some time with him in bagram i had his eye had been shot out he was blind in one one i hear huge exit wounds in his shoulder. just above his chest and he was of just turned fifteen he was just ten fifteen from being fourteen he was tortured in front of me he was abused and screamed at and shouted at spat at and stripped naked
10:55 am
and his his treatment was was was a war crime there's no other tried way to describe it the whole issue in the beginning had been the canadian government's complicity in his torture it's of this book recorded video evidence that the government was physically present that sent members of ceases the intelligence services to go in interrogate him while he was a child while he was suffering from these horrific wounds and everybody who's in guantanamo soldiers gods and prisoners knew that this is not the way to treat a child since two thousand two hundred eight hundred people have been held at guantanamo bay despite a vow by barack obama that it closed it remains open today forty one people are still being held at the facility many of the inmates were detained without trial and tortured nine has reportedly died. however former pentagon analyst michael maloof believed it outrageous to hand over cash to
10:56 am
a convicted killer. the reality is he should not be compensated he did kill and americans and he worked with his father who was closely linked to al qaeda and osama bin laden is just lucky he was picked up and was still alive today and he should just move on and for the traditional government to prepare a liberal progressive government to come out and offer compensation as they did a few years ago to another canadian it was similarly. i think is. over the top i think that the fact that the family of the soldier who was killed is going to the canadian court now to retrieve that money and to pay for that for their loss i think it's appropriate. i'll be back in just a few minutes with morning.
10:57 am
