in terms of foreign policy done all chump is already earned himself the title the low expectations president this title is now being put to the test during his tour of asia because the us a status quo power in the asia pacific region for oil challenging china. time after time they were going underground a century on from the day of the bolshevik revolution that would arguably save britain from hitler coming up on the show as britain's chancellor for the pound and

is nowhere to be seen for an emergency parliamentary question on the paradise papers should britain's head of state apologize for offshoring millions of pounds for aggressive tax avoidance we speak to jeremy corwin's u.k. labor party shadow emergencies minister chris williams and band we ask dorian b.n. deputy chairman of the u.k. just a select committee john howell if minority government needed to raise a maze premiership is sustainable in the wake of what appears to be a new scandal every day there's new figures show not only rises in u.k. food bank use award winning director sean baker an oscar nominated actor willem dafoe on what the western economic crisis is doing to the children of the usa well the simple going over today is going underground but first this week marks one hundred years since a revolution without which arguably britain today would be in the hands of nazi descendants the rapid industrialization that took place after ten days shook the world and russia would ensure the defeat of hitler on the eastern front that

enormous human cost and allowed britain's escape from being an outpost of the third rush but of course according to go mark the revolution was supposed to happen here in london not three and a half hours by east of this studio in moscow it's something you can detect in the work of no i'm chomsky the soviet union called it socialism in order to gain whatever to benefit from the moral appeal that true so. there was a man had among marge parts of the general world population but this was about as remote from socialism as you can imagine so what about a socialist revolution in britain some marx is reality is required for conditions one split amongst ruling classes like say over fifty fifty if you like break that to winning over the middle class say by catalyzing resentment over paradise papers tax dodging three instability over law enforcement say slashing police numbers by more than twenty thousand which has happened under the tories for increasing worker

democracy arguably like that proposed for british boardrooms by u.k. prime minister to raise i'm a has i what i've clarified today's meeting very clear we want workers representation on boards and workers on boards are also advocated by u.k. labor leader jeremy corbyn so are the conditions right for a real revolution unlike russia nine hundred seventeen there's certainly class resentment over revelations from the so-called paradise papers detailing tax dodging by the rich that people will no doubt decide by joining me now is the british labor party's shadow emergencies minister chris williams and before we get to revolution the paradise paper has your reaction to these new revelations witnesses say seriously injured people from the manchurian or attack did not get medical help for an hour that's the may twenty second attack in manchester the ground in a concert hall that's incredibly troubling and certainly merits further investigation as to why that happened i mean i can speculate i mean one of the reasons i think potentially could be the fact that our emergency services are massively underfunded

and i've seen substantial reductions in government investments and that's pled to a reduction in staffing and consequently right across the piece the major services are struggling to actually cope with the pressures that being put on them i'm sure the government would deny the cuts had any big influence over that or all i don't think they can deny the full and when we do deny there is there isn't any any money and you guys in there. well the money is part of the problem the fact we don't have the money because of tax avoidance little like they were always very interested in it i mean the figures suggest something in the order of a whopping seventy five billion pounds is avoided every single year in this country there is literally trillions of pounds in the tax savings and you know that's why we're calling for a public inquiry that's why we've said that we want to see a range of different measures brought in including a register of those who have holdings in particular british dependencies and we've

talked about introducing measures such as withholding tax to actually do you know took the tax source as it were to make sure the when companies or making profits it is going to they pay their dues as it were because they know they benefit obviously from this economy they benefit from the infrastructure that's in place in this economy in the house to be paid for out of the public purse and by you know not paying their obligations in terms of the tax that they should be doing then clearly that's putting additional pressure public services or crying out for investment day or in a desperate state with. numbers of policing and adequate numbers of nurses weightiness going through the local government has been decimated social care in absolute crisis no government should be the head to represent the interests of the many not the few but it seems to me this government and indeed successive governments has got to be said over the last. four decades really have served the interests of the elites they've served the interests of faceless corporations or they've served

the interests of billionaires formal then they have the interests of people in scottish government removed say that it was worse under blairite and labor they have tried to type up some guy loopholes i mean should this was a question they would your leader as well should the queen apologize for offshoring tens of millions to avoid well i mean i think frankly the creek queen is a sideshow i mean ten million pounds yes i think she should apologize but let's not . gets too focused on the queen ten million pounds purses literally trillions of pounds and lord ashcroft involvement in this i mean new thing we've called for for example georgia for his former tory chairman absolutely but you think well things are also calling for is for closer scrutiny of members of parliament and we do know the. public accepted members of parliament do have offshore accounts and frankly i'd like to follow the ecuadorian example where no public official is allowed to have any offshore accounts he had a referendum earlier than most of us the prime minister doesn't have on as well as

i understand what do you make of the fact that her husband merges maybe twenty billion dollars in tax dodging companies like amazon and starbucks as well the senior executive of capital group whether a clue clearly questions to answer there seems to be for the promise there and you know the could be conflict of interest here obviously very close family member partner husband. you know. and his business dealings i think do need to come under the spotlight here. you know we need answers i think to these very serious questions of been raised now as a consequence of the revelations in these paradise papers it just goes on and fundamental to british capitalist society where the right wing blogger is saying john mcdonald had a chance for his tax filings show that fourteen thousand pounds was involved in some pension in guernsey brazilian that doesn't mean javagal back in of course of. talk about clutching at straws that's a that's a smear and the fact is that john has no control over the way where the pension funds are nor does anyone well now but the point is. well no we deed but this is

where we talk to restrictions legislation and we talk about bringing that in but where you know complete do have control in these corporations they have control these billionaire ali go to these elites they have control and they choose to hold their accounts in these tax havens many of which are british dependencies very briefly when you're in parliament the disgraced defense secretary went how long do you think to raise it is the beginning of the end of days away in a lab is the beginning of the end for this cover. because if they recently go she would just be replaced by another cardboard cutout who. you know subscribes to to this is a revealing there is the end well i mean i think it's got it's got the stench of decay this government has to shore in theory they could last until twenty twenty two can't see them surviving that long because they are in a minority it has all the hallmarks of the john major government and so i think whenever the election comes are there and they're in a very deep trouble but we can't be complacent we've got to offer

a genuine alternative to the system is that on offer at the moment when you know the wealthy the rich the corporations will benefit from you know i mean the end of the day these people are making so much money you can see the cost and they just how well the pots just grow and grow and grow would be better if they were paying their way contributing to society contribution to the economy that would help the economy to grow it would help generate jobs and they would benefit from that you know it just seems to me a client of addictive approach that they've taken chris williams thank you. well we just heard from shadow emergencies minister chris williamson and he was quite clear the paradise papers could not only be the final nail in the coffin for to resume but their entire party as well i'm joined now by the prime minister's trade on voight to nigeria conservative m.p. john it's as vice chairman of the conservative friends of israel joel the expert coming on i mean we have minister is not declaring secret meetings with foreign governments we have people senior people of a ledge the endangered the lives of british subjects abroad is to raise me finished

no she's not finished and i think you've got to look at what each of those items individually to get the true picture of it there's no point in getting worked up and jumping on the on the back of them and i think it will be totally wrong to say that either theresa may or this concerted government is finished you think it was wise of. them to. in a sense echoed the iranian revolutionary guard corps allegation that the british subject was indeed a journalist a lot of charity work well the thing you can't do is to is to hide things and and lying to foreign governments and i think that what morris said was. was actually appropriate and i say that has his normal critique of boris johnson and i think it was it was perfectly appropriate even if it endangered the lives of the rain ians are a terrible regime they are causing a huge amount of of of upset really that is your view surely the important

issue is to save the life of a british subject and i understand the borat spoke to the iranians and i don't i don't know what is going to vote with you trust the iranians after boars agree with and you don't trust them before he said no i don't trust the iranians as far as i could throw the what do you mean iranians at work i've no idea what the iranians said i wasn't privy to that to that conversation but i'm sure he explained the situation to the iranians and we'll have to wait and see what the outcome of that is we know that this government since twenty ten the tories of obviously taking a tougher stance than gordon brown attorney blair on tax avoidance and tax dodging . what did you what was your reaction to the fact that. tax dodging seems to be going on on an industrial scale well i think the thing that you've got to remember here is the enormous hypocrisy on the part of the labor party because in the wash up to the general election they forced through changes that would have created

eight point six billion pounds for the u.k. treasury and they simply didn't want to want to pursue them so i think that i'm not going to accept any criticism from the labor party. over the paradise paper you know worried that there is a maze has been involved has been does. in effect advisor on tax dodging i'm not i'm not in the slightest worried by that i'm sure that he can defend himself on this but quite honestly i think there are bigger things that the cons country needs to concentrate on and as i said it needs to concentrate on the hypocrisy of the labor party in turning down the offer to recoup a point six billion for the u.k. eloquent about partisan politics so no it's not a partisan politics it's an actual fact the before the german election in the wash up to the general election that's what the labor party did so they can't go back on

this now but still a little of any public inquiry into the implications of the paradise paper i don't see that it needs a public inquiry ok well the governor has a lot on its plate today it's six round talks at the e.u. i mean given the european union arguably the dork over the fact to brazil and to pro-democracy activists i mean how these negotiations going on as well even negotiate with european union well i think that that's a very interesting question to make how do you negotiate with it with the european union and the short answer to that is slowly and carefully and there are many things that we need to be concentrating on in our trade relationships around the world and the new it's one of them you said that. should be going slowly i want to say that they deliberately will being linked from the by european officials to see a britain in the end like other european nations well look i am very keen to remain

i voted to remain and i still think that that was the right decision but the country voted in a different way and i lost that that argument and we have to and accept it and i don't think it's in anyone's interest either for the e.u. of for us to duck negotiations over future trade policy it's certainly it certainly would be. both interest. john l. . survivors a still housed in emergency accommodation five months after the tragedy. tells us why he believes the capitalist model of competition prioritize business over politics and the people. going underground.

in terms of foreign policy donald trump has already earned himself the title the low expectations president this title is now being put to the test during his tour of asia is the us a status quo power in the asia pacific region. challenging china. welcome back well while former u.k. labor pm gordon brown may be trying to make an audience at the l.s.e. forget about how he oversaw a catastrophic economic crash in britain's economy alarming statistics about poverty have emerged in the past twenty four hours according to u.k. and gio the trussell trust hundreds of thousands of children have nothing but food banks to feed them in austerity britain between april and september six hundred thousand three day emergency food supplies had to be given out to stave off hunger

so what about the usa a country whose new liberal policies have long been revered by u.k. politicians we sent senior producer pete bennett to speak with the cost and crew of a film hotly tipped for the oscars the florida project this friday in britain the film follows underclass survival in the shadow of multinational media corp the walt disney company. co-written and directed by sean baker the florida project follows the misadventures of three kids living on the highway to the most magical place on earth disney will florida star an oscar nominated legend willem dafoe and the cost of first time the story is set in a budget motel now mostly home to america's hidden homeless i spoke to known actor brevin knight say he was discovered through social media about her character haiti's experience of poverty motherhood and temporary accommodation hayley as a young she's in her early twenty's she has a six year old's out any money she's just trying to figure her life out financially

struggling doesn't really have a lot of opportunity and the family just about her daughter mostly but it's about her kind of trying to figure out are the struggles without putting them on her daughter not being able to pay around not being able to get where are those things are true and make and they go through these things regularly is so. real situations are really going on and these martellus do you realize before the film about. this hidden homelessness situation in america how many people are suffering i never know about that and it's not because i didn't want to it's just because it's not really spoken about. so it's really awesome that shawn is shutting my on a subject that's really important i feel like i really agree with shawn when he says housing is a fundamental right and i feel like it's not fair that so many people are just overlooked and it's definitely everyone deserves a home but what it is is actually very much stemming from the recession of zero

eight and the housing crisis that immediately followed it you have a lot of transplants and for various reasons you know coming from mostly the new york area puerto rico and looking for a place in which they can they can find permanent housing so what they're doing is that they're using these budget motels as basically a place to keep a roof over their heads you know they're one step away from the streets they're there it's the last refuge before actually turning to shelters or the streets in the sort of a donation food truck where people are getting free food here in the u.k. we have food banks has become a massive. issue with d.c. the first time people relying on donated food oh yeah you know it's that's that's one of the biggest concerns is that there isn't just simply there isn't enough funding from the government whether it's local state or federal and so many of the agencies that are providing social services to the needy are being backed by

their philanthropists so the private sector i mean even disney itself had to give five hundred thousand dollars last year to the homeless impact fund which helps central florida so it it's about getting it's about getting basically the government then now to really step up and and provide funding for affordable housing and low income housing so then that's kind of symbolic in a sense that's happening on the doorstep of disney you know the second biggest media company in the. it states that is exactly why we decided to have our story take place in this area is this very sad juxtaposition of children growing up right outside of the place that we consider the happiest place on earth for children so it's putting a human face on this issue it's having us embrace a little moonie whose only character love her and laugh with her and spend the summer going through going on mysterious adventures with her with the hope that at

the end of the film you know when they're really audience members are leaving the theater they're talking about the real mooney's out there because they've connected with her through humor and through love having approached the subject in a journalistic style. residence and manages in the lead up to filming funny cheese and sheets on location at the magic also motel also still operational i suppose it wouldn't if about his character bowlby the hotel's manager and what it was like to work amongst the harsh realities of postpaid america bobby the character i play is the manager of the motel a budget tourist hotel that's along this highway right outside of the mismatched parks most notably disney world in central florida and it's a place that does have tourists come and stay there but it also houses a lot of people that don't have permanent homes and they pay daily weekly

and they can't establish residence there so they kind of pay as they go but of course this makes a very precarious living situation and you have a lot of people who you know living six to a room lot of children it's it's a tough way to grow up it affects their schooling and affects how they eat. you know home having a home should be a basic right these people don't have that. they struggle and that's the world that we're talking about in this movie is that kind of since i'm not sick is some sort of some policies i mean i know there's a housing crisis well i think this happened it's not just in central florida it's a lot of places and i'm sure there are similar problems here but in the states specifically after the economic crash and the housing crisis there are a lot of people that just can't afford. house they couldn't get the security.

money together they couldn't and they had a bad credit rating for various reasons and this was a solution for them but it's a it's a very it's a tough cycle because. the kids are always moving they do they fall behind in school they can't they can cook on hot plates and thanks but they end up eating at fast food restaurants which cost them a lot more and they eat not how filet that you know you see all these threads that contribute to this cycle that is very hard to break and i think rather than talking specifically about this it is useful to talk about story because it's not a polemic it's a story. that takes place in this world seen through these kids' eyes so it's not. a totally. downer movie there's something joyous about its

portrait of childhood but at the same time always in the shadow you see the adults who are struggling and you recognize if these kids don't have different opportunities and if they continue to grow up this way though i. be facing the same challenges as their parents. yeah. ok i want to get one drip in your eyes. out now. it's not an inside job. thank you very much. agent. needs an ice cream or very many. very fine. very sassy girl. she is she's very very

funny. well jancee is not so what troublemaker but when she meets these two christopher and of course mooney. i don't little out of control but didn't see is in a bad person and. chances just a little girl that just. dreams and when they're trying to get money. they actually really get it. sometimes in really think that people are going to give it to them if they do that they do but they're hungry they don't really have a lot of it so they're hungry and so. they don't really know for the cost money they so the trying to get money to get their own food what do you guys want people to think after they see the maybe there's

a special message which i'm going to tell you they should make the world a better place they should help out the community just go and bring things that you don't use that can still be in use and give it to them and make them want a better pleased they should give people things that they need because they should really be thankful fairly have that has they could be put in harry money's position they could make small motels like budget motels and all that stuff and they should be really really fine for that to have us and it could be their bill. and their money and food and all that stuff just because you can't just because you we're living in very politically heated times not only that we have we have technology that gives us you know updates every three seconds about either

a political heated political scandal or or a disaster or a tragedy we're getting hit a lot with it with news that isn't exactly positive and i think that film needs to still be an escape and so audiences they want that escape but but a filmmaker can also use this art form and this this form as a scape ism to to to to shine light on an important issue and i think that that's when the film becomes its most powerful our politicians are not morally. leaders there are businessman and in this case you know a businessman that you know totally is is his judgments and his and his wisdom. you know totally comes from this kind of. capitalist model of beat the other it doesn't exactly make you. think

as a nation or think yet as a community it's all about getting over on the other guy something at the heart of competition and the heart of capitalism is you know who gets the most stuff at the end and i think we were learning for a while that that's not the way things get done you know in the end it becomes what you want to do when you want to pay for it you want to pay for education you know and i was saying and you want to pay for cops and jails and it's pretty clear that . for me it's not a great story but we're going on the right direction now but hopefully there will be an adjustment some. seniority is a bit bennett there with the cost of a crew of osca favorite the florida project the film is out in britain from friday the tenth left of the show will be back on saturday forty six years to the day of the first publication i'm just told since fear and loathing in las vegas to speak
