12:02 am
recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel is a dangerous one it will threaten security and stability and frustrates efforts to resume the peace process the president is committed to this peace process as committed as he has ever been yet as a mayor all every possible step must be taken to prevent the implementation of this illegal action by the u.s. administration however there is one question that sticks out here what's factors and never once made it possible for the u.s. presidents to take such an outrageous act of that type of rhetoric that we heard has prevented peace in the past and it's not necessarily surprising to us on the explains how that single decision has affected more trump's global reputation how much time do you think donald trump spent considering his move to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel a decision which doesn't directly affect anyone apart from the u.s. and its ally but has sent tremors across the world in ways that washington perhaps

strip against the o'keefe week since trump announced his decision to the tide has turned to a tsunami a potential natural disaster no one was ready for i do think we will see more of what we've been seeing so far and whether we're with the rock throwing and demonstrations that unfortunately something people want counter intuitive i think it will be taken by most of the regional countries and also by the europeans as indication that they can't trust the united states they don't trust american leadership and in a way in the guise of reasserting american leadership i think mr trump has actually made us more irrelevant to developments in the region and in some ways has lessened american influence in the region. meanwhile clashes in the contested city as well as in the west bank have been raging for a week now. well
12:06 am
with tension escalating both on the ground and in world politics over trump's decision the u.s. secretary of state says it could take years for any concrete actions to follow and the american embassy to israel can stay in tel aviv until the end of trump's presidency again jim trast says that some of the u.s. latest bombshell decisions are not always supported by practical steps he took it for domestic considerations it's an easy promise for him to keep it can say i promise to do this during the campaign i have done it i've checked that box it will make a large part of his base which are evangelical christians very happy i think it's similar to what he did with the of the iran nuclear deal what he decertified it but then did not follow through with pulling the u.s.
12:07 am
out of the agreement here he has said that in jerusalem is israel's capital but he has not yet moved the u.s. embassy there although he could easily have done that any time. now u.k. lawmakers have given prime minister tourism a a brick sit bruising after voting to give parliament the final say over any deal struck on leaving the e.u. eleven rebels within her own conservative party broke ranks to give them pays the power to veto any exit agreement. a meaningful vote a meaningful vote a meaningful vote article fifty thousand the date has been served we are leaving at the end of march and when the deadline runs out we leave leaving the european union we should say no parliament taking back control exchange the article fifty deadline before we leave the european union amendment seven is floor is just my view to watch some productive. to drag things out drag out the negotiations approach for
12:08 am
months and months and months scrutinize what the government is doing proper scrutiny this is not the moment to try and defeat because i. just walked out. but it has been done so fifty two percent of voters choose to leave the european union but the poll did show a sharp divide between britain's regions which wanted to remain but it was only in march this year that the government kick started the exit process opposition leader jeremy corbin here said m.p.'s have delivered a humiliating humiliating loss of authority for the government and that power is now back in the hands of parliament to resume our unity percent boost in her popularity ratings last week that was after what appeared to be a breakthrough in the brics it talks in which yes she claimed the government's strategy was on crack. but there is there is i believe
12:09 am
a new sense of optimism now in the trial and i. would expect that we will confirm the arrangements set out today in the european council later this week while theresa may might have secured a better result had she not lost her party's majority in the snap election gamble early this year she only managed to stay in power with a one billion pound deal with the northern irish democratic unionist party artie's afshin rattansi says tourism a can no longer overlook the deep divisions within her own party. this is the first defeat little of completely mine to germany call the labor bertie because although on the labor side germany famously for brics and most of his political career has differences within his own body the conservative worry is split very much split over bricks itself and to resume a thought that you could fudge the issues and somehow make
12:10 am
a deal between different rival factions or own party and tonight it's it's failed as for tomorrow's meeting in the europe it's clear that european leaders were seen as a zone of weakness there's no doubt that if you pay that kind of money to stay in power and can't win critical votes over the future of the united kingdom you're in big big trouble. that cryptocurrency is have been hitting all time highs recently it corn spiked it nineteen thousand dollars making it the fifth most valuable currency in circulation but critics are warning that the crypto rush may be a bubble about to burst so here's what you need to know about because. bitcoin is his financial model so not reached no missed for centuries he's taken over the title biggest bubble in history from what was known as shoot man in the netherlands bitcoins valley has surged byron sixty times in the last three years
12:11 am
and that's possibly true that falls in the seventeenth century which is one point worth ten years for skilled crawford's earnings back then prices were driven by greed or fear of missing out but as more people called since the polls quick profits a flurry of cells collapsed the price left many with crippling debt this bitcoin is being called the digital tulip the twenty first century is the same pattern emerges a fear of missing out on new investors piling in critics say the perceived value of the currency like the chill that is being conjured up to finance but the ever growing army of bitcoin believe is say it's here to stay with an operational market in full flow around the clock and new places all over the world ready to accept the cryptocurrency as paying even a church in london is happy to accept donations of the virtual kind with the size of the pick one market already surpassing some countries economies including new zealand influential banks are being left behind but as history shows us boom is
12:12 am
usually followed by bust and soon it could be fit cornerstones of wilt the glasses . so how concerned should people be well you know neal discuss the possible repercussions of a crash with a bit coin advocate. i do not believe this is a bubble it's just the beginning of an adoption rate of the technology how damaging could the losses be though if prices suddenly drop we have heard people putting savings into it it effects it's so large just nodded affects so many different things if the price is did suddenly drop would it be a catastrophe of course that it could be said for anything really if people are storing value in it that they can't live without a lot of the crypto in the do say only invest money you can live without and don't use any money that you're emotionally attached to so that way if it is in a volatile market and that's what crypto currency is right now it's extremely risky it's highly volatile and if you're emotionally attached to any value put into it
12:13 am
you might be up late at night biting your nails over old scale of things if the cryptocurrency bubble does person i understand there's a lot of different things we have to go wrong for that to happen of course what the repercussions on the rest of the financial world and markets is it is it that big i would actually be more worried about if the public doesn't burst what kind of effects it could have on the world economy in general if it doesn't burst it may actually have more repercussions than if it were to birth today even if you wanted to sell a million dollars early you said billionaires somebody wanted to sell a billion dollars worth of big point today it's not easy so it would take a long time for that to happen and if you're an investor in crypto currencies if you do sell your crypto there are ideal ideologies behind it where you want to sell your crypto to somebody who's looking to invest in it who's going to hold it long term that way the cryptocurrency you're holding and waiting to sell because you
12:14 am
have to do it little by little it doesn't lose value drastically over time because you just dump it on the market. this is other news now on an eleven year old girl who's been handcuffed and held a gun point by police in the u.s. state of michigan the incident took place during a hunt for a forty year old suspect. actually it was not well it. was. originally going to be. for a hamburger. your friend your first you're. there aren't sure. yet. what authorities are facing a public backlash to that with many condemning the police actions and in response
12:15 am
to a complaint from the girl's family the police department has launched an internal investigation we need to look at everything from our hiring to our training to our supervision what we're going to look at is when is it appropriate for discretion to override practice in borehole in dealing with an eleven year old. well the great coach communities united against police brutality do you believe that such actions by police can't be justified. children at eleven years old are still quite innocent and they should not have to be dealing with the police arresting them falsely slapping handcuffs it can't be justified because she clearly pose no threat to them whatsoever you know they pose a threat to her by pointing guns at her these officers are all being trained to think of every single person in the community is an enemy combatant they're being trained almost like soldiers except with less restraint we leave through do much
12:16 am
more with us militia training and training that teaches officers how to actually negotiate situations without possibly being fearful of their lives we need to hold officers accountable and we need to demand that the culture of policing change so that officers a gauge of the community and stop being warriors over the community that's what we have to do. that and it seems the price to sway the bricks that referendum is less than a cup of tea facebook has been presenting its findings to the u.k. government on alleged russian activities on the platform with more his or smith. i must be dying to know what the findings are so i just cut to the chase and tell you seventy six pence facebook identified an ad spend of less than a dollar by russian organizations in the lead up to the brits that referendum that bought three adverts which showed over four days and around two hundred people they estimate saw them and even they related to immigration are not actually directly to
12:17 am
bret's it this idea that russia meddled in the break that referendum is something that's really gained traction here just over the last month or so headlines comments by politicians even a notable speech by two reason may in which she accused russia of undermining british democracy russia has fermented conflict in the dawn by us and mounted a sustained campaign of cyber espionage and disruption. this is included meddling in elections and hacking the danish ministry of defense and to the bundestag among many others it is seeking to weaponize information deploying state run media organizations to plant fake stories and photo shopped images in an attempt to sow discord in the west and undermine our institutions what they're referring to are bots and trolls and in particular paid advertising on social media now damian collins the chair of this select committee has responded. saying that facebook only
12:18 am
provided details of advertising by accounts that were known to be linked to a thing called the internet research agency which is a russian organization that's accused of meddling in the us elections it hadn't he said done any further work around that to ascertain whether there were other accounts and pages that had been active around the referendum but tech crunch which is a well known industry online magazine said that it seems very unlikely that there is another layer to this well certainly a new twist report on supposed russian meddling says it found six hundred for its which cost just over a thousand dollars apparently swaying the referendum early this year to facebook and twitter to testify before the u.s. senate here's a quick look back at that. they found portals into our society russia has harnessed the tremendous and quite frankly to me frightening power of social media their goal is to divide us and
12:19 am
discredit our democracy they are using our own social network star friendships our families and our biases and viewpoints against us is for that one. determined that the number of accounts we could link to russia and that were tweeting election related content was comparatively small. aggregate these ads and posts were a very small fraction of the overall content on facebook but any amount is too much .
12:20 am
these videos mostly hand low. international relations expert matt goodwin says the russian meddling stories are only big news because the media is playing them up. one of the issue is that many of the claims have been made by fairly prominent journalists i mean if you look at the u.k. debate for example the observer newspaper pushing this idea and that really has forced. faith in its being polite but the evidence was incredibly dubious. it's resource being plowed into this type of investigation. it should have been spent elsewhere. u.s. lawmakers have the final say later on thursday on why this is scrap so called net neutrality which could significantly alter the web experience for millions of
12:21 am
people it would allow internet providers to charge extra to prioritize their traffic effectively creating a slower lane for smaller websites where protests against the move have taken again taken place to try and stop will make is creating an internet. gauge reaction among some of the demonstrators. you see what. i hear you see. protests against repealing net neutrality are raging across the country right now and activists here in d.c. are gathered at began building itself to protest in favor of ensuring free access to the internet and as they say to save democracy really that's the big problem here it's these giant p.c. to think that they have they should have all the advantage and all the decisions to make about what should be content on the air and it should be a public utility and especially in the twenty first century when you know a lot of communication skills that need to be improved and taught in schools is
12:22 am
essential for from your job having a portfolio doing anything you can to get information to part of democracy to have people communication people access to communication not just the privileged. the super rich have every advantage of. so-called democracy this is going to show that a lot of small business is a small website and prevents. me from hearing the small voice. ok ok you see we want to be so here's how it works then people access the web through their internet service providers and at the moment they have to treat all online traffic equally but the us federal communications commission says that that's preventing websites from investing trillions of dollars in their services well if the net neutrality rules are scrapped i a space would then be free to charge
12:23 am
a premium to prioritise and services the concern is that the cost will be pushed on to consumers to access their favorite content at a decent speed kill of net neutrality would be nothing less than a declaration of war against free speech in this country it's a corporate power grab it's an attempt by giant telecommunications corporations to be able to pick and choose which internet websites and applications the can be that the preferred that the fever would mean such a windfall of cash for these companies that would then be in the position of essentially being the operators over what is easily accessible and what is difficult to access or perhaps even completely inaccessible to customers especially those who don't have the ability to pay for extra pieces of the package which is how the internet would be structured without net neutrality so it's a clear example of this revolving door of the domination of corporations over the government and it will be
12:24 am
a lot harder to fight the domination of corporations over the government if net neutrality is repealed if these corporations can determine what information is accessible and what is not and that's the real danger here it's an attack on democracy. meanwhile an elderly woman from a russian town is proving that the internet is for everybody in fact she surfing it like a pro at the age of one hundred in what. show . me. the you.
12:25 am
can take that away it's a little bit of people who follow him to people and when you do that he has a little bit of both which the feeling that you seek out from the real. suddenly a whole month i need to. feel young you get older you go down a little slowly until you move the only name. and she can dance too good for her and that's how the news looks so far today more news

come. that's the problem in this new reality is there will be no resting in peace there is no death anymore people will pay to make sure that their death is final that their death is complete that all their d.n.a. ascribed. here's how it started with u.s. households sinking ever deeper into debt encouraged by the government and the banks to take out mortgages even those who did not have the means to do so. until the day the bubble burst this has been a historic sunday pastor to this hour the lehman brothers investment bank appears
