kratz have tried to invalidate each republican victory of the white house going back to one nine hundred sixty eight when they claim that nixon had made a set a secret deal with the south it needs to torpedo those peace talks then you see what they did in seventy two then you see in one nine hundred eighty they said that reagan had made a special deal with the iranians in one nine hundred eighty eight that was of course the surrounding of the iran contra we know in two thousand when all the way to the supreme court in two thousand and four the democrats said that there was funny business in ohio and it just seems like every time a republican wins the white house the democrats will spend a year or two or maybe longer just trying to invalidate that election so how do you think this will play out then they will just briefly trump it to stay absolutely and i think what we saw at the stock market with that fake news that came out from a.b.c. news the stock market went into
4:31 pm
a full blown panic at the thought that trump might not be president for the next eight years and i think that was a message that congress received loud and clear. really good to talk he will leave it that was name a cable washington based political chicken and it's a big politics thank you tom thank you for watching we'll be back with some hot and . michael flynn at mit's lying to the f.b.i. the reaction of russia gators and the liberal media is jubilation but why flynn's admission in fact deflates the now on to receive.
4:32 pm
i was born into tower it was my home for twenty five years. off to sea in the heart of my state i can't see. that not will follow me and my people whose for the rest of our lives. we won't see any shots of the faithful not in this film we never want to see that again. grenfell for local and good old reasons
4:33 pm
there's a bigger picture that i love more about every day we talk politics now and how we can take power because we learned that we have to look off to ourselves. grenfell changed everything. it did the consequences we saw fit to make the cranes loom in the horizon in different morph anyways no i live in cannes in the chelsea it's one of the richest areas in the whole country but the north where we live has one of the highest concentration of people of low incomes the growing inequality is pushing so many out the area it's obvious global capital has no the gods the people like me it's the same story the world over from but into rio madrid to new york but maybe because we're having such prime real estate well. we had to leave could be a warning for you all so i set out to learn from those who are in the know about here and tell you about.
4:34 pm
they want to paris more due. here where they push everyone out to the outskirts in a suburb where you can easily control that outside of. where they've taken over and you go i have come to even be there i was the only reason you're going to be going in is to commute go to work and do some menial task and come back out again and go back to the suburbs they look at this particular area as a gold mine and the thing that's preventing them from being able to mine that gold is the presence of the people here are social housing they were they were cutting back on on the returns and maintenance and they've been to nothing is quite literally in this process we call managed to climb and i think data is proved as we'll as we'll believe that a cheap job was done if that's proved what you think it probably will be than that will be and when it comes confirmation of our worst fears and that that's
4:35 pm
a very deterministic and unpleasant war factually against it both flowing in having seen many of us now see a wall fair by the rich in collusion with their mates in local government they didn't represent us they light the car they deregulated it and it killed the council's representatives deny social plans and they tell us with a straight face they care about our community i don't feel that the issues are about social cleansing as you put it i can understand why people of. explain in those wise for me the issue is how do how does this council going to invest in that area and invest in ways that delivers community value for the people they are not moving the people they are out to somewhere else that's not an agenda told. so-called regeneration has hit our community with wave after wave of gentrification for decades it swept away homes and community spaces it replaced record shops with
4:36 pm
coffee shops music venues we. where we feel like outside as the streets we want school are now full of tourists and the rich i can't tell you how many people i see move out because it's just too expensive and you know whorish are so rare i've never felt such a difference between one of our off and them i'm talking cross on the ration if we hear regeneration we know it means the generation we know it means destruction any community now would take is three of regeneration projects that exists no doubt every generation comes to your party who would you best watch out because you look like if you don't battle against and stop them they're going to wipe out everything that you all did basically you know everybody's been pushing the regeneration culture yet is actually part of including is that head we need to chop off because it is that beast that created the grain for itself and. is that culture
4:37 pm
that created it and is hundreds of years old and they still see us especially the african caribbean population as their former slaves. a bitch an activist around here lifting grenfell's our he won countless times about deregulation and a flower in the fire safety standards he said only a catastrophe would lead them to see and he was right and plan is not to have a plan and that's a great plan when you're trying to run something down into the ground you know because you just don't invest in it you don't use it it just is just not look soft as lang west we're not i mean it just you know just they allowed it to i mean some as it is is a is a is a strong word but they are allowed it to sort of slip into a slum like. status which is disgusting considering this power has a first of all had referred a billion pounds in reserves that we've been losing all of our public and public
4:38 pm
buildings in north kensington. the people that are responsible for that at all because they see a small caballo of officers and senior and senior councillors. they should have been keeping us safe in grenfell tower on the rest of the grenfell tower used to live on the thirteenth floor. and rather than keeping us safe they spent their whole time in the whole concentration going around north kensington taking our library of lovely hundred twenty five year old north kensington library of a beautiful information center underneath the fly over. and any other public assets they could get their hands on including this beautiful building behind us the building behind us a purchase of freehold for twenty five point three million pounds without any consultation without even the local labor councillors knowing about it i put some of it accusations to barry cooke i'm not going to comment on that it seems to me that that's
4:39 pm
a very very strong statement all i can say is that i've looked at the issues that we're dealing with in relation to fire safety on housing on making sure that we've got people that you know directing the team when we're directing work ourselves to make sure that people are safe but obviously emma level accusations directly some of her colleagues like former deputy council leader what field in maryland they had massive master plans and some people bring in their expense from elsewhere on the current deputy leaders his property developer and others who were just merely aspiring to be property developers go to maryland before the fire filled in million was working for a property development company slowly named socially conscious capital how socially conscious is it. that while serving in public office he was also being wind ten times by dismantling. this guy rich convincing councils to sell off assets to his
4:40 pm
wealthy clients filled in million enjoy five star lunches with him and pinch pennies from us. to look out the window. and you can look out a flaw in the school and you say so you would have been believing this woke up early yet i want to go on that although i still got. a letter in the uk now. hopefully when you happen to be a state nothing's happening for your stay. filling crack. touching up the paint what i mean one of two things. after a big middle finger to the people on the effect or if they're crazy want to get out of here and setting up which isn't anything to do he said very very like you need to we need to go now at least i'm going up big money and land bankers have planned so where we live only we went part of the. local fight is against global enemies
4:41 pm
and structures. eight guys have as much money as hostile world because of the systems we are in it doesn't matter if you're in london if you're in their way this and that for you. when you have a political clout who are completely convinced and it's the consensus among them that the most functional economic philosophy for society is neo liberalism whereby you have been big transfers of wealth and redistribution of wealth upwards and the idea that there is. a syntax for corporations that there is subsidizing of the arms industry subsidizing the banking sector. who pays the price for those big cities the people who are just by the backbone the heart and the lungs of the society is the people that really make it run.
4:42 pm
and they call me a useful idiot i'm useful idiot you called me a useful idiot a useful idiot useful idiots go expressing my opinions on t.v. there's two things of us doing it behind his record is a simple strategy we attack persons instead of talking about the arc of what's next why stop will feel banned me from getting this close to the white house i'm with a group code pink why not ban the color pink one hour stretch beyond the right i
4:43 pm
should be sent to the town of london because i'm to try to break me on the wheel but out with a long time of this sort of nonsense you don't scare me more skill and i'll continue to voice my opinion i'll continue to speak out to him in good company i'm in good company you get with me you want to us because we're free thinkers. chose seemed wrong. but all wrong just don't call. me you won't get to shape out these days to come out ahead and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. thanks to.
4:44 pm
my. was rick i. was was. like. i thought. i was on the. phone. how was the sense of oh well it's the whole of my estate the file in june of two thousand and seventeen but i hold an all out. couldn't believe it. and i couldn't believe the size of it as well because it was almost on the whole of this size almost. i mean you could see that it was spreading
4:45 pm
quite far as you could hear it you could see bits of the climbing kind of food around on the street. you know from prague and i see the towel on my side on the other side i was right but you can see the smoke so i can meet him and that's when it was a. you know he looked up. you saw or it is so painful i don't even know if like at the time like i thought those people are going to get out it was so it was traumatic you know a lesbian traumatic and we're hoping that somehow something will come along and rescue them somehow we will not literally watch these people beg for help and bend to death in front of us and you know what happened a helicopter came and it came within one hundred fifty two hundred mi is around now that turn around was the most heartbreaking thing i've ever seen in my life the fire that fertile happened because the state the government the local county days at the time called absence
4:46 pm
of the council of the week day after day after day for the council to step in and say hello this is what needs to happen the state has commodore significative response of services and that we stand there than did lots of stuff now maybe in the way they still had time for feed today even for the community but they were able to have a planning application me into grant two and the agency planning applications with no committee hearings while the community was dealing with a disaster and the count just tons of aid companies constructed by the council to carry out the bunch of innovation began deleting things on their websites there with u.k. group deleted disk page about their involvement in installing the small ventilation system in the towers main stairwell but we will began to hold them up what did they have to hide there were fears the council was doing the same. these questions have been as part of the public inquiry i'm not sure answers we get the i'll explain
4:47 pm
later why i can be as not to be safe from the council building i went off and on. if you are right if you are ethical calm while working on this film the conservative leader of the council nicholas patch of ground announced his resignation he filled a million manage to reach innovation that so deadly kept in touch to grenfell now he's advising big businesses how to profit from local authorities yeah i'll give you the parts. he was actually he's made a business of tenant of accounts who this is how you do a budget night this is how you make money off a budget and he was making a living off this after he was he should be in jail he should be in jail. projected office to respond to allegations made in this film a week after the fire to resubmit a made it official she apologised in parliament calling grenfell a fatal state the support on the ground for families in the initial alice was not
4:48 pm
good enough that was a failure of the state local and national. but for those of us who disputed continue speeding's of state before and after the fire this was too little too late . failure implies that there is a positive intention in the beginning to actually fulfil this toss what i think we have seen is yes incompetence on one hand but this stain and purposeful money speak of social housing in this bar in order to cleanse it and move its people out we know that people that campaigned against the council in there and with threatened with eviction vindicated in that. they were vindicated in that and that is the most tragic part of this situation that people were no. i heard in life and even now than i had in that. there's a strong sense that justice cannot be done off the ground. the call for
4:49 pm
a just and humane response deaf is the community and good but dignified has responded to the state's failings to silent marches they have grown with every on the fourteenth of each month their lack of justice is never less obvious as when my streets are filled with family and their life today and that's good and that's beautiful but. the problem is we happy about that because i know people are going to make out so this rage is back to rage. there will never be justice with this it's i personally believe that and it's just my own very own personal belief that only game in town these moving public inquiry there are fears the state's failings will continue to weave into public inquiry because it is being headed by more pick he's a judge with a history of controversial rudin's in housing cases where he has been accused of social cleansing this guy couldn't be further from my state and why the community
4:50 pm
people need to go to jump journey people lost their lives if we don't nice we need to be rest eat we would be in question we would have to download the whole of the team ok management team need to go to geo what it would have been is to go and arrest the guys but mcfadden on the geysers sol because i mean. i'm the guy zero for the titans ago long before that would've been perfect justice for me perfect and a lot of these a lot of demain players in these organizations or got connections with each other they all have had direct relationships their paths have crossed going right back to david cameron. who deregulated fire safety and live within walking distance of ground felt our. way remains to be seen with the outcome of the public inquiry employees investigation. but one thing we know for sure we will never trust the state and his privacy mates to keep us safe again. since to the community
4:51 pm
continue to come to give a not just to pick up where the council fails but to china increase our power so that nothing like this ever happens again. that was a tragedy what's happened has happened to it better than you think people are it's woken a lot me up what a lot of people up and i believe if we continue to stand and make noise and not shut people out we can change as can any way and. we know from observing what's going on that there is a more contemplated mood there is a more thoughtful mood among young people there isn't as much madness crime on the streets that was going on as because people are thinking about all. this is it people i did. it against each other how do we deal with that and i think there is the opportunity to actually turn a lot of stop around history is key to understanding the struggle of working class people in north kensington the area known as gold to people down here is the
4:52 pm
equivalent to new york's harlem it was the center of a counter culture from sound system to. after the war the fight against racism and fascism. the caribbean and the progressive white working class communities made history taken to far off the streets in the public space flow set the bar in many ways claiming disused lands from the council one of them for the benefit of the community the history of this is one of never ending struggle up until today where we have been the biggest threat we have ever faced gentrification some locals think the only way forward for our community is to build on the way we came to give off to file the state has filed the filed the papers of north kind of filed the paper the ground for it was voluntary. wake software's ok we did. things for themselves a way thing is we can harness that spirit and make it a permanent thing but when you look at the numbers that they were able to get in to
4:53 pm
their positions with there's no reason why we can't put forward now and pace yourself there's no reason why we can't put forward candidates that we know that we know will not sell us out because they are beholden to and receptive to the movements for social justice which exist within the rather than beholden to corporate power in tightly enclosed time if we want to get rid of the tough from the south and about microsoft's independence and then bring it on you know real directive not proceed because the one good thing that could come out of the thought one good thing is a total new model of working which is in the hauraki of things in the visit by opportunity to do that build from the from the ground up again i think it would be a brilliant thing. a council tax. you know we all decided one quarter not to pay our council tax to the council and the whole of north kensington pays its council tax to
4:54 pm
a community organization and then you know facilitate all of those organizations already in place doing the work remember those millions that the council had in the bank they could have spent in that wasn't that while we were filming this report the council buckled on the community pressure announcing that it would spend much of those sweet house in survivors in the local area where on track to purchase about three hundred properties before the second week in december we're looking to try to make sure that we can offer people properties a permanent we're buying properties in the local air and up in the ten thousand and eleven who knows where we would be if it weren't for the community stand alone for five months people have been in hotels the vast majority still my state is being gutted the reality for us not about will stop i've got my eye on a pool of join my residents' association party campaigns to take back what is outs maybe it's the only way we can survive to realise that elective leigh we have we
4:55 pm
all know what we will we will power to shape our destinies and to be artisans of all faiths that we need to seize these opportunities and organize. and that if anything that is being mixed that will come out of that is an increasingly aware community of its interests. this is not willing to be pushed around. may. michael flynn admits lying to the f.b.i. the reaction of russia gators and the liberal media is jubilation but why clinton mission in fact deflates the now popular conspiracy theory.
4:56 pm
there is no center in the united states' political discourse it's all center right ever since the clinton camp the people who came into power the center right has become the right and there is no peace party that exists in my country and i don't see any evidence of it except this third party that is so criticized the green party. and is getting international recognition with the help of israel at least in the world of zoos i'm in bills to commission to do it looking like. this isn't my cup of tea is going up the study hall meeting. no challenge no doubt just busy shooting the only palestinians who gets the most help from its jerusalem counterparts i don't think this is about those who in the world under the oak bush didn't know only could do
