million people with water. in it by the looks of the afro and or hear it say that fame they show all hallows by the norse anything that's there not like excel predicate as the mean of a stationary helmet on a rebel element at least with russian or animists in my system of i can machine it will mumble more than just tell when a much more efficient girl as it became i got. to groan or something i stopped all people to a strong last them off center but are not scottish. purity just on the last rescale least so the bulk of myself at least had it all to shape dallas where you have been and will not i'm up to c.p.a.'s i said this is young people keep our. own keys there are dead. fashion a place you. there's

a. shill decision. if you know the city. and what's a privatization officially it's not the commission's policia state however it's true if you look at the troika us and if you look at the memorandum of understanding between for example the troika and portugal the commission as part of the troika is asking too for the private size across the book to go so in the troika the commission is still pushing for privatization so if it is really a human right and if you really are serious to the citizens at today's initiative we should start acting on policies instead of celebration. thank you.

thank you. senior producer and i wish was sitting. mostly with. your. sympathy. as you watch it because fundamental means. that i compose. each could have. told us but if it is a song you could if it were. concerned about the pressure being put on southern countries european water movement activists ropes to read. the highlights of the european commission as part of the troika so to force southern european countries mainly greece and portugal to

privatized was that. they say that is unacceptable and must stop. a few months later the commission's reply leaves everyone speechless. the commission believes that the privatization of public utilities including water supply firms. can deliver benefits to society when carefully made. to death. this once i was in bunches was as they counted a duffer to cosign. such nice best son i can stone of i accepted going to see best fit it was something. that i could do so much and also did some enormous economic every nothing yeah if it's out of the depth of a thought if i think that id goes

a little knee need to shift to be all. and not by deed. you sure could get or get into disuse your bridge you know that. is what makes premium opinion dissenters extreme divorce you can you could feel secretly he let me be the last i did. not look at dog ac yourself these dual results must always come and a very serious one. when detroit you came to ireland they wanted to privatized the water utility. but there was no water utility. the water was sprayed in twenty seven local authorities so they were told your government by the troika to build. the i

was government. a company called irish water. which began installing meters. and side to people's homes. on divorce protests took place. isn't that a sketch of the city of clark loreal woman went out in the morning and said you are not putting up be the outside my house. i told him there are meant to be a station with vision one of the water meters and that was us. waiting an hour or two there was a mass of supportive people here to stop them. and this was the first time that the irish people had taken a stand on any issue since austerity had begun says the troika ride to toes in the night. i told her. i thought i thought it was.

i think for some people it probably was the straw that broke the camel's back. i don't know if a sudden mood in the street together. and people who are joining the docks and with you know what had the water meters got to do with the fact that you can't see a doctor should go to a hospital what the water meters got to do with the banks coming in taking people so this. you know this is sewer phone a little bit of power you can't go and fun to try but you can stand outside your house and there's your polar and and it might be true years and we're still not finished. but people are still resisting this because it is the one thing that they have power and they're never going to get it.

and we knew that this is big something different it's not. it's about water forced to foremost but it's also about much more than war it's about to hurt to be trailed the surrender of sovereignty and the redistribution of our west operatives and their debt downwards. there is a problem with the leaks and we couldn't find them until we have brought in some measures so if i see my solution suddenly it says it's a million liters a month for a couple of days in my house i go that temperature so that's the reason for the missiles. and islands that were no meters because they had a completely different system of water charges. the irish paid through general

taxation. over one billion euro was intended for the maintenance and operation of the water system. some people think those paper water through taxation is a little bit crazy we really only country in the o.e.c.d. . it has zero war poverty and we're the only one with the a lot of poverty because we're the only one that pays for a trip to the us a general taxation that's the one thing we've got right and we'll keep it and the rest you should look at for follow us listen to us because the dumb irish got this one right. we really need to modernize our russia structure so now we really have to invest. so we need a structure to invest we need to wait borrowed money and then we need a way to pay for it paying out of general taxation people who work would probably end up paying more taxes. we are losing forty seven percent of our trees and walk

into the ground in leaks before it gets to the top. no billion new up to spent do i choose to spend it on meters or do i choose to stand up billion euro in fixing the leaks and building a new or structure. despite the water having been paid through general taxation. no tax exemptions were plans to offset the new charges. forcing one of the major. threats of paying for water twice led most citizens to regard the introduction of meat as an challenges as another austerity measure and the establishment of irish water is the first step towards privatisation.

mr ferguson said down with the minister tusk by the government with setting up the new company. clearly didn't work out quite as we expected. it was never on the agenda from my perspective that it could would or should ever be sold or privatized when i was just cos in this matter with my officials at the time i insisted that the legislation would have to include three point one delivered to say she was handed to me before i went into the parliament it wasn't in it. starts real. centers it's office and i have it says of course we all know privatisation is ultimately envisaged. and then there was a letter from disinterested just example saying your start you can say that would you please take these words out of the report. so then the report came back four years out towards.

everybody i'm stephen ball. hollywood guy will suspect every proud american first of all i'm just george bush and r.v. to say this is my buddy max famous financial guru and we're just a little bit different on a. good morning you know when those up with all the drama happening in our country i'm shooting the brood have spun me every day americans more. closely start to bridge the gap this is the great american people.

about and under them i did not cut any oh no i mean my. upon him and if one of those came it up about us listen to so i can know me a little much to be still slot. machine and say not a single thing close to. that. rather than the meaning being he doesn't have it doesn't assume hung up on one of sanity let alone enough to hold the idea that something is in a hole. and the himalayas will go down if the submit become a hot item but. not commitment and now i'm working in the club and in the police news. from some listeners down somehow must post some of some of

them a guy that's. coming on my blog and then i'll be on the phone the one that hit. a place for many clips over the years. so i know the game inside i. football isn't only about what happens on the peach bowl the final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super manager billionaire owners and spending two hundred twenty million on one player. so it's an experience like nothing else on to because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful game played great so one more chance for. a nice minute.

yes. the decision has already been made and everything is ready for the big day. following the examples of berlin and italy the people of thessaloniki will be called upon to say through a non-binding referendum whether they want the water company to be privatized as planned by the government. suddenly however on the eve of the ballot there's a problem. there is that it is there somebody. they see fit and if it be seen it not at least they can not quote the answer into the school and the people who are making a little bit of this. interior minister younis make a lock is in

a circular sent out the old municipalities declared the referendum illegal then it got to. in the christmas numbers i love it and i think i was asleep but it is my store after going to get my police feet of course i'm. going to bow to them some of it is. also there to cope with it is my gut that this case is to stay off of the saddle nicky butt out being a pussy to somebody needs to pick it up chemically none of us unsteady support difficult position as a cup a good thing it's a seal. even if she is but a man with a statistical b.c.

to put them all on so let them only play simple that smith applauded for the. french president emmanuel micron's on an official trip to west and. is accompanied by forty french businessmen each with an interest in the greek privatization program. today they'll have the opportunity to directly question prime minister alexis to press. among them is shown louis shows up the sewage c.e.o. is company has its eye on greece's water company's. many pot of hell of. a lot from us you guys who got booked on the back of my because.

i've been this is. a bit more years now and i've been left over a. little flat most focused on you know. if you book each of. those i must. be a star if. you. give the gift list and. not me it. does not look stupid enough to make you. get tested if you. have to get into. the country is now obliged to transfer all state owned assets to the soup. fund. a new anonymous company with a life expectancy of ninety nine years whose management board will also consist of

representatives of lend us. the water companies are among those assets but the government still promises they will not be privatized. so they need to go to pick up these things up ok it show you may go straight to bed b.c. must then say good b.c. he adds i don't like out and go to some extent but only get upset at the park yep if i see both the state on a.c.c. then i did pick up east of about the seas fifteen at least a piece that. crosses from a loss who took part in the thessaloniki water movement became the alternative minister for the environment and was put in charge of water management following the state council's decision he's trying to salvage at least fifty one percent. of the if it was in the midst of the most oil it. was just going to get used to give a good look at the going to get these people just want to get the government with.

it misses the what i mean this is it's that we're going to produce what i was it's what i put that it's. in twenty fifteen and as became minister of the environment under portugal's newly formed left wing government after the twenty fifteen elections was a policy change soon enough to. deal with a system of the vs. but they meant the yeah it will be in this movie see use could they. be vows. to buy. that is good nope it is say the d.v.d.

it was nice but is that if you will see the events. unfortunately the government has washed its hands of these cases according to portugal's constitution municipalities are autonomous and the state is forbidden to intervene . dimple well those who vote on d.s. bossiest c.d.o. but if it is that the level of us must into the ten. or veto. of us all to the real cull he so she had already out at the at the divorce place for you minerals. the key is to kick you boil it is for us as well etc. marcello some passes to fight anna have to get by on their own.

best to go mr knows he has no choice he is bound to pay a huge amount of compensation one hundred seventy two million euros will go to the private water company because the boston us municipality failed to reach the envisaged population and water consumption targets. the municipality also realized it had lost all technical know how regarding water management. going to the shelves to d.s. eat eggs you would buy put the board. so mr gomez decided to negotiated with the company will she be so maybe. starship was awful awful to explore. the facts known by start to get that for. themselves the two versions. home with vs once without is no.

visit. zied. england leave it to you if they just say. look out. past us different era but the most expensive water in portugal did not appeal to the courts. brito seeing troubles realized that the game was lost and try to negotiate with the company. you know it seems we used to go to. mislead lucas and look at the uses of. newer the past freedom at the. bison.

no word. no no no. activists against water charges often patrol this cork neighborhood. if they find an irish water crew installing meters they try to force them to leave. oh we say you know what we need . everybody knows that nothing is set in stone yet. the commission keeps pushing islands to comply with the community directive and impose meters and water charges on its citizens. the jury is this principle which is. framed in the water directive that the polluters should be sold there should be a direct responsibility of this cannot be done with a general exception obviously next friday we meet same time. and we'll do that right. on that don't we don't act on when. faced with an

precedented public disobedience the government is trying hard to maneuver between public discontent and the demands of brussels. what are trying to do you know in a small way they would say it has to happen because the european union talks it has to happen because detroit at all of us that sort of helps but we can tolerate you're going to take very very quickly because when the european commission after the different opinion something gets for example that apple corp older citizens of this country talk to been taught in billion euro suddenly the ideology walks in the next and suddenly do new liberal say that the european commission it's only an opinion we're part of europe but it doesn't it doesn't take away our ability to meet our own decisions in relation to how we tax how can do european commission take away our ability to meet our own decisions in relation to water for an opinion

of the very same body and the very same people alone has to be her own decisions in relation to give an apple a thirteen billion year old gift. well all you have to do is look at puppets to explain those contradictions. i. see. all of these situations and all of the peoples of europe need to start having an honest conversation with each of. us kids music plays the whole movement to defend.

good people basically knew the name nice but the seem. to stand on when they're trying the west and i mean to get them out of the government and then them kind of i wouldn't have a dogmatic approach to. was. going to come into shores to do are so many players on a company that to sell. beer shite would decent people qatif. cross europe people are saying you know. enough is enough. can we have our social europe back. yes yes. whatever this song all these.

are it's. as if there's. no one. time. there for me to face. the single most important social equalizer of our time the internet is under great

threat the decision by the federal communications commission essentially gives internet service providers the keys to the internet without net neutrality will be economic opportunity divide only widen for all. how does it feel to be a sheriff the greatest job in the world it's as close to being a king as any job there is one business model helps to run a prison now we just do it on my guess is nobody you know visitation i don't no one comes anymore we don't have to serve them anymore is cost effective that's what they want to do that at the moment they don't give a damn if you do the charge on that they're actually paying us to put it back into the louisiana incarceration rate is twice as high as the us sam bridge what she could is behind such success. here's what people have been saying about redacted in the senate it's full on awesome the only show i go out of my way to punch you know what it is that really packs

a punch. please yampa is the john oliver of r t america is doing the same. apparently better than two thousand and six and see people you never heard of love redacted the night president of the world bank page but it doesn't really mean it seriously send us an e-mail. thank. you. mentioned well that's the one thing i think i want to learn. that. was you

think that. this idea is it dangerous to say here ok thank you i didn't. correspond as caught up in the latest protests in ramallah as palestinians declare another day of rage against donald trump's jerusalem move. social media giant facebook is accused of abusing its monopoly in germany and of inappropriate collection of uses data. also of live uprooted urges security services to create a safe barrier against foreign interference in russia ahead of the presidential elections next year.
