his being forced to turn in his star though through no fault of his own is the story. over the past four or five years we've seen a steady decline in turn and fall in business customers for various reasons many people prefer to stay at work and get deliveries and come to the restroom and companies are making less so the budgets are tight to fill it is that. i've been in this town for eighteen years and we've had a mission a staff for thirteen years for the region it's a shame to lose a star restaurant but it's a good thing for the industry overall unfortunately we need to focus on employment rather than. sad but that's the way to. deal with.

the united states now where debate is heating up over a migration initiative aimed at protecting. also known as the dreamers donald trump says he's ready to approve a lower on them however only conditions truly should be a goal of love and we can do that but it also has to be a bill where we're able to secure our border drugs are pouring into our country at a record pace so in order to secure it we need a wall. deferred action for childhood arrivals also known as dhaka is a program created under the obama administration it gives a temporary right to live study and work to those who are legally brought his children to america and now u.s. lawmakers have two months to tun daca into law the dhaka initiative has of late

been used by democrats as a tool to accuse trump of violating migrants rights recent revelations make it look like the debate is not so much about moral principles but rather about votes and support bases and the media is now sharing a memo written by the former director of communications for hillary clinton's presidential campaign. the fight to protect treatments is not a really a moral imperative it's also a critical component of the democratic party's future and that tural success if democrats don't try to do everything in their power to defend dream as that would jeopardize democrats tonight says in two thousand and eighteen and beyond political analyst john howard jar is unimpressed by the way the dream as you see it was being used to score political points politics has become very cynical in the us and you know i think that. it's somewhat of a dirty game you know that the left looks at immigration from

a very cynical perspective. they have very wealthy interests that rely on a constant flow of cheap labor and also they need the votes and they're against any of the reforms that president trump and the republicans have been pressing for. america's dreamers debate might have some resonance in scotland where the local parliament was looking into the possibility of granting the right to vote to anyone granted asylum or a residency that would include a right to participate in local and scottish parliamentary elections the scottish minister of a parliamentary business claim that it's only fair that those who have the right to live there should also have the right to vote and we debate the issue with james dorgan from the scottish national party and david coburn from the u.k. independence party. the idea that any country allows people who are not their citizens to vote on any election basis on the head of

a totally wrong the scottish national party want to gerrymander the elections they want to give the vote to every tom dick and harry this is all anybody but the english i should think i got all that goes died out so somebody might call that racist. rumble and run i just heard from david coble now the only person who sounded racist and it was him the fact. is that in the recent people. and if they get the rate to stay here then i think it's only appropriate to get rate to have a c. they must have british citizenship all the scottish national party like well scottish guys lying about it trying to gerrymander it don't have anybody in the country that would give them of would you give us some explanation of the skull don't. know engine is just give us a lecture you need be quiet for a moment i would well you should be quiet let me speak i'd let you speak a sensually they don't want anybody who's english voting but anybody else can have a vote no matter where they come from this is on had all countries normally only

allow people to vote in the elections who are citizens of that country the ridiculous state the coupon continues to see only people we want only to the english the english people who stay here vote consistently or all sorts of issues the whole gist of it so that it that it moves big deal from not i mean look still be able to vote for whoever they want to vote for not to quote democracy does what you want it do as you want when all else are you going to smoke a lot of the scottish scottish soldiers and scottish people were not given the vote if they were not resident in scotland at all the referendum this is not that pathetic if effort by the scottish national party to gerrymander a future independence vote this is no a game this is about trying to meet scotland the rate sort of country to the people who live in school and will get the opportunity to say what it suppose i thank you for sharing a day with us here on international more of your wednesday world headlines very sad

. i had a great education a good job and a family that loved me. i never had to worry about how i would eat somewhere i would sleep. i'm facing christmas alone out on the streets of london. well you look to be honest. i thought the glory like. you know the sunlight in the still give up food for the stuff. you don't really feel like you have the big you know. and then. the guy just came over to me saw me and gave me a change of this book. in

the heart of the swiss alps this is a place probably more secretive than the pentagon more mysterious than the cia and better guarded than for knox ellis was customs are here permanently all the site is controlled by them and they impose the opening times. opposite it is from his office the procedures in place of the strictest in all europe masterpieces by artists like pecans oh and modigliani i can't boards and sold inside this warehouse that's where the report comes in it covers up deals which are naturally discreet commercially discreet effect but also discreet because they concern fraud. some of those paintings are linked to dark secrets nobody knows how many of these secrets a kept inside the geneva freeport system you'll never obtain an inventory of all

we're going underground as the world commemorates the use of united states weapons of mass destruction against hundreds of thousands of civilians in japan arguably not to end world war two but to raise the threat of cold war armageddon coming up on the show the big issue. in the poorest communities and one of the richest areas on earth continues to cast a shadow across the british imagination we speak to the founder of the magazine of the homeless. and the national prevention unit. just what was going wrong in the. so. it. was so to speak.

face to face interview to ground from the headlines claims counterclaims caracas and how the n.h.s. is privatizing. all this. coming up with today's going underground so the lives of hundreds of thousands of british children in tory britain are apparently under threat according to anti-poverty charity the trussell trust as u.k. children lose access to free school meals during the summer holidays years of blairite labor and tory austerity have been put into sharp relief in one of the richest countries in the world meanwhile record rises in homelessness have accompanied the transfer of wealth from social services to defacto taxpayer benefits for the city of london some believe that all it would have taken for engineer liberal leader jeremy corbyn to be prime minister of britain right now instead of theresa may propped up by a party linked to far right paramilitaries would have been of the lethal grenfell tower inferno had happened before and not after june's u.k. general election joining me now is the founder of the big issue crossbenchers lord

bird who is proposing the creation of a new body to curb the excesses of capitalism on bird welcome back to going underground so what's the reason is government's response to your proposal for a poverty prevention unit well when i spoke to her previous to the election just before a few days before she announced it. she liked the idea of looking at this how you could make all departments. passed through the prism of how does this relate to prevention she like the idea of it are made the point to save i'm making it that most units never really car use so they're bureaucratic and i mean that is quite a form filling in and all that and we know damn well that every every government minister in their department are clearly like you know chasing the greyhounds

chasing the rabbit of their department and then you know in the slightest bit interested in working across party and across government so you really got to get these people and banging their heads together that's why you need a unit when you as a crossbenchers work in there as a lord byron as buskers d.w.b. and the secular state employment is at an all time high in rejecting your proposal it sounded to me like in the house of lords so poverty prevention unit at a time when we've never had it so good when it comes to employment. well it seems to be the what do you make of a response as a as the government well i you know you know people have to make responses you then have to move on and and do what i'm carrying on with the concept of what i'm calling a prevention alliance which is across both houses across all parties and i'm trying to get the government to turn them into a unit so there is measurable and the heads are not together what did you recall

vince people say and well john mcdonald also just previous to the deputy just previous to the elections said if you're going to see to raise or this is well before you know if you got to see teresa tell her that we are up for working in a nonpartisan way around dismantling poverty you see the the problem is about seventy percent of all the efforts the government of the both houses are round poverty and its effects so we're always dealing with this even if we're dealing with the environment we're dealing with all sorts of things i'm poverty is there all over the place so poverty is to every radical poverty we're almost talking about creating a day of small government a day of a small national health service a day of a vigorous education system only things that we dismantle poverty so john mcdonald

and tereza my and other people realize that the writing is on the wall we can't just keep trying to give the poor a little bit of a bit of better conditions my argument and it is maybe because i'm a marxist catholics on the bit weird there my argument is that we have these people called victims and we have these people call rescuers and they the never the twain shall me there's always a lot of people doing a lot of good for the victims but i know. never get them out of victim ship or even if it is a good that's that's arguable when one could say because surely the forces of capital have found a way to solve the situation i mean i know the shelter which runs ran into a few personal problems of the greenville tower it's a direct skipping over that they're saying one million risk homelessness in the next two and a half years private renters at the moment but haven't the forces of capital. social cleansing move all these people out of the big cities and they can't be seen

or at the then what happens is you move the more you move into something something like grand will happens and instead of having to spend say a pack a pound on a problem you have to spend a thousand and what's happened with grumble it's alerted people to the fact that we have been getting increasingly we're moving further and further away from the concept of social housing and with that where men were allowing.
