4:30 am
because we've had us at stripping where. and we are where land effectively has been sold off to the private sector and that is a process that will be extended by it it's reason lies government continues on top of that we saw nothing of staff to look off the patients once they're in the beds so you know we've got an operational crisis in place in the n.h.s. i tried to ask the health secretary hunt at the tory party coverage in manchester about this question why are nurses or mass now leaving the national health service . well we haven't had a pay rise in seven is in fact we have had real to have cut your fourteen percent i've lost seven years. workload has increased exponentially where unsupported we have enough staff to do the job so when you don't have enough staff increases eleven stress makes it even harder to shift for nurses and hospital.
4:31 am
it depends if everything. was and overruled over what undervalued we are underpaid. and for the first time in my in my professional life if i met a young person who said that they were considering asking i would not encourage them actively discourage them i suppose the defenders near liberalism would say the british actually had to fund the bailing out of the city of london therefore britain's national service already funded the whole of the level as percentage of g.d.p. that the united states has is that when germany and france it has to be cut further critics of course say that it's a deliberate attempt to force people to go private and kill off the n.h.s. where still you have you witnessed the. people around you see new doctors and so on saying maybe you should go private but you know i don't think it's just saying it out. some people in the n.h.s.
4:32 am
who are completely ground down but this government's attempt to dismantle our service that i don't necessarily feel like there's any other option however as a child genius and as a health campaigner i feel that we've got a responsibility to give some leadership to people inside actually to noble the n.h.s. is the single greatest achievement of british working people collectively taking action and fighting for something and if we are prepared to let that go we would open up a door to a system not what they have in america. now the reason i spend so much more as a percentage of g.d.p. in the united states and waiter in the u.k. is because the market is fundamentally an inefficient system the delivery of health care we've witnessed this just over the last couple of days with the collapse of korea we want to a good thing here and we need to fight not just to defend what we've got but actually to tight back into public ownership the karelian contract the g four s. contrast contrast the people that are running on didn't service up and down the
4:33 am
country are the people who are running community services furch inc had. built i fully into quite his national health and social care service now in the prices of cuts and privatization but on the prices of of democratic public ownership so that we can give the care that we're trying to stop along to be able to expect a bigger inspirational very very good and i think the demonstration of that effect way it's got the upper to potential to be a real lightning rod for a lot of the anger that is out there we have got people dying incognito's on for days implying without seeing a doctor or a nice that is the situation is an except in a pill lab to everybody who's watching if you can come down to london on the third of february to type in a demonstration as a get involved in a movement up and down the country in your communities to defend the national have said this and to send this government back and jackie barry thank you after the
4:34 am
break we'll juries are very be held responsible for future terror attacks restrict your former metropolitan police chief with over twenty years experience you believe the government is lying to you about protecting your safety and the minority leader is really doesn't even recognize a question from germany call him in our view of this week's british pm all the smoke coming up about going underground. tamam. from.
4:35 am
welcome back minorities gay government leaders tourism a couldn't even recognize the questions that alone given on sir this week's prime minister's questions the leader of western europe's largest socialist movement wanted to know about this week's massive multi-billion pound neoliberal fadia karelian may countered that a labor council in leeds last week of the commission the outsourcing contract corben wasn't any use for the record leads have not signed a contract with korea it's the government. it's the government even handing out contracts it's the government's responsibility to ensure the korean is properly manage between july first to speak in between july and the end of last year the share price of karelians trial by ninety percent sri profit warnings were
4:36 am
issued unbelievably some contracts ruled by the government even after they. profit warning this is fake it looks like the government was handing karelian public contracts. to keep the company afloat which clearly hasn't worked or he was just deeply negligent of the crisis that was coming down the line how did the woman who was in power because of a defacto one billion pound bribe. mr mr speaker i'm very happy to answer questions when the right on which at the last one. corbin again asked whether policy was one of negligence or desperately trying to give a drowning company afloat but tourism a was more interested in the remnants of neo liberalism in corbin the shadow cabinet like shadow foreign secretary only thornberry who still hasn't consented to appear on this program since she was appointed i cannot say to the shadow foreign section i will indeed on the question
4:37 am
but i know that she herself is praise karelia in the hospital. i say. that i say i don't know which i guess i mean there is obviously now a crown representative who's been fully involved in the government's response food the appointment of the crown representative to replace the one that a previous again in place the government chief commercial officer and the cabinet officer office director of markets and suppliers took over those responsibilities for corbin that wasn't the point for him this week's top u.k. story wasn't even just about karelian it was about the wholesale privatisation of u.k. society to favor a handful of massive multinationals but this isn't one isolated case of government negligence and corporate failure it's a broken system. under this government.
4:38 am
under this government virgin and stagecoach can spectacularly mismanaged the east coast main line and be let off a two billion pound payment capita and a toss can continue to wreck the lives through damaging disability assessments of many people with disabilities and when more government funded contractors g four s. promised to provide security at the olympics failed to do so and the army had to step in and save today these corporations mr speaker need to be shown the do all we need our public services provided by public employees with a public service ethos and a strong public oversight. as the ruins of karelian lie around will the prime minister ash to end this costly racket of the relationship between government and some of these companies there's no sign yet that mainstream elite media level of
4:39 am
tourism. mase minority government even accept that privatization might as well be an invitation to mafia style racketeering and this week's pm queues took place just hours before u.k. authorities reveal that taxpayers will have to stump up hundreds of billions to defacto bail out companies like karelian. in twenty seventeen forty six people under the age of twenty five were stabbed to death in britain's capital alone over new years four killings punctuated the year that bore the highest levels of knife deaths in england and wales in the twentieth to police officer numbers in twenty eighteen coincidentally are due to reach their lowest levels in twenty zero two with police officers across the country blaming this huge drop on austerity cuts brought on to bail out the bankers in the city of london with trays of me offering a billion pound bunk to keep our government safe are the cuts that she has presided over for years putting the people of britain in danger joining me now is peter kirk
4:40 am
a means a former police chief inspector with over twenty years of experience peter thanks so much for coming on so we've heard quite a lot in other stories about austerity a collective economic punishment hurting the lives of people what is the reason for this uptick in knife crime and knife death in my view it's very simple it's because there are fewer police officers on the street and therefore there is less policing of the streets and therefore public space is becoming more dangerous. of course the government continues to point to crime more widely coming down do you think they just see this is something mysterious or there underneath it do you understand that there is a correlation with we're talking about the reduction in police numbers of tens of thousands i know perfectly well what's happening and they use and then muddy the waters by misrepresenting on line about the statistics certain types of crime that we've happened to count over the years yes they've been coming down for years some of them are continuing to go down mostly property related crimes such as burglary
4:41 am
theft from our vehicle theft of multiverse calls but quite a lot of street related crime. violence especially is has been for several years now showing evidence of a rise again and that is now quite a significant definite rise and you said the governor were lying over statistics is . why mainstream media to cover their bags there may not be as interested because they are believing this is just six of the coming out i don't know what's happening with mainstream radio they be like that i've no idea but the why even publish tete a pathetic police stories like cops are saying having a sandwich cops spend x. amount of money put into these when petrol vehicles or whatever if you think other police officers could possibly share your opinion you said trey's i'm a has blood on our hands regarding the increase in knife crime you talk to former colleagues people currently serving they really share their opinion and the the
4:42 am
problem with the police is that they cannot talk out. talk publicly if they come out publicly and express their views there would be so and sacked so simple as that senior officers i think have a duty to tell the public what is going on and i'd like to see them standing up and being coward but the reality is that they are likely to be sacked because their life career is in the hands of a party politician now the place and crime commission is put in place by theresa may she has taken political control of the police service she has moved the constitutional independence of the police y.a.y. closer to the government and i why from the people the government says it is localizing police autonomy and driving away from central central authority another lie they say that but what they're doing is they're leaving responsibility with local p.c. sees local chief constables but they're not giving them any power to actually make
4:43 am
any changes they're cutting budgets they're given them a fait accompli and then when crime starts going up and officers disappear off the street in a particular county i say it won't fit to do with us and we've got the ridiculous situation now with and we've got the ridiculous situation now with tory p.c. season councillors around the country and m.p.'s around the country who have voted for seven nearly eight years of cuts to policing that are now going hang on a minute where are all our place and then i ask in the local paper so you say now i need to be asking her she's current and she's been told it will that the impact will be as quite a lot of blame for the government but come on i mean the police federation conducted a poll to give police officers for the first to have the right to not they weren't going to strike the right to in the worst circumstances which uses rebating the ability to withdraw their labor there was a majority for the right so apathetic your colleagues they didn't even go of fifty
4:44 am
percent bothering to vote. i'm not sure it's apathy the place has got warm a huge huge strength and that is their dedication and their duty and commitment to their job and serving the public it's why they joined even though lots of them take a pay cut to do it it's why they continue despite all the bile that they're getting from government and from the media despite the fact they get in be and not right left and center and the courts are giving ever week a sentences they still go in and they do it again and that's a massive strength but it's also a weakness when it comes to things like pursue in the right to strike they would look at that and go now there's no way we'd have a strike they'd certainly never strike for pain conditions brought it similar to doctors in a way i was going to say exactly that it's like nurses and doctors year they might eventually but you've got to push them so far i personally i think the time has
4:45 am
come they're not being listened to by government no matter how they try they're not being listened to by government and i think they need the right to strike not for pain conditions book to stop the cuts in the service to the public cops around the country are desperate desperate that they cannot do the job that they know they want and should be doing they just can't do it when comes to maintaining public order to raise them a famously blamed mit fire will seem to apportion blame on that one m i five for the magister atrocity they give it to terrorists wow protected is britain in this context of cut from terror they have bolstered the specialist counterterrorist unit his own former secretary understand salute and she's she spent money on the spies she spent money on g.c. h.q. she spent money on specially scout police terrorist units congratulate her on that indeed she has improved that but we've still got nowhere near sufficient resources for them to maintain any sort of monitoring let alone twenty four so. and
4:46 am
surveillance of the suspects that are you know or are possibly on the radar for an attack so it is or this electorate is going this year as they will they're always demanding more when he's of course there's a not enough every term for sure and if they want to say there's no more money then what the politicians need to do is accept that something can't be done so the politicians need to sit here and say ok we accept that there's three thousand pretty high level terrorist suspects on the books and the current resources they can only watch a few hundred a monitor a few hundred more and we're happy with that and if one happens to fall below what is judged to be that level happens to be an atrocity will syria go far in fair enough we knew that we didn't have enough money to do that but they don't they keep trotting out this ridiculous idea that you can do more with less you can't all you get for less is less less money equals fewer place officers all spies or whatever
4:47 am
it might be which means less time for policing which means less policing gets done so if something falls off the radar they won't accept that they keep saying they keep implying that the police are making the wrong decisions but when you've got three thousand high level terror suspects in front of you all you can do is do your best on what you know and that's often very little to try and decide which ones are looking like them out but the highest level of threat you made to jeezy h.q. of course it was in the news because karelian has a management role in g c h q if you are still objective chief inspector want to counsel said here look i can't take these shifts because it is amazing shift terms being quoted me or i should go into the private sector what would you tell them but if officers speak to me about leaving the place service my advice now is that they need to think about themselves first they are being burnt out their families are being burnt out they cannot sustain the level of stress and the level of long
4:48 am
shifts and everything else that's going on permanently. they just can't do it nobody can do it you can't maintain a case load of thirty forty more serious cases and we're talking recently about disclosure in serious sexual offense cases people and if a rape is reported there's a little squad of officers on it certainly for the first few days to get a hold of it and do the basics with it and then maybe somebody then keep hold of it on an ongoing basis and the little squad moves on to something else doesn't work like that you've got overworked detectives often have a rank role that shouldn't even be doing right investigations in the first place just posted into these units because i can't get anybody else and they're carrying workloads of twenty or thirty or forty ongoing houses that newly reported right will be given to their already overworked officer to fit in amongst everything else they do and i have been warning for a long time that they cannot possibly do all those jobs properly. and yet nobody
4:49 am
does anything about it those jobs just keep mounting up a mountain of amount in op and the pressure on those officers is incredible we got more and more officers going sick with stress we've got officers leaving through stress related or health we've got officers leaving in mid service in their droves to go and drop trains for even psych you know if you went to victoria now and you want to find an experienced police officer you'd be better off looking in the three eleven from i would say for drivers cap when you would look in on the streets of london outside peter bergen thank you and that's it for the show we'll be back on monday just with the father of sixteen year old palestinian schoolgirl head al-timimi who has been imprisoned for her actions after you care about israeli soldiers gunned down her relatives protesting illegal occupation in palestine until then you can give a contact with us about social media we'll see you on monday one hundred forty seven years of the day that i am a good school teacher louise michel the red virgin of wal-mart to her first shots to defend the paris commune legacy a key influence on british suffragette sylvia thank us. for.

many europeans are asking themselves is why the austerity policies are being followed despite the severe harm that they have caused to one this is the truth be considered is that the consequences are actually quite acceptable to the decision makers so one of the consequences is to weaken labor slowly dismantle the welfare state social democratic the tree provisions developments which are europe's great contribution to modern civilization in the post second world war when do you need to defend in a state of its. search should make a post so much of that a statement. of the accused. the green the. you know it would
