focus on me focus on the destructive radical islamic terrorism that is taking place within the united kingdom we're doing just fine and perhaps a change of heart by president trump in order to repair that relationship he's indicated that he's willing to apologize for retreating britain first if you're telling me that a horrible people horrible racist people i would certainly apologize if you'd like me to do that i know nothing about their previous announcement of a potential visit by trump of provoked a backlash amongst british politicians i would not wish to issue any british. to speak in the royal gallery. previous reports suggest that mr trump himself postponed a potential visit to the u.k. because he didn't want to be greeted by huge protests and attitudes here really changed in recent polls just start more than half fifty six percent of brits don't

want president trump to visit if donald trump comes to the u.k. he will hold the biggest protest in british history he will be mad by a million of us at times in a citizen's arrest of him for incitement of racial hatred we spoke to one of the anti trump protest organizers it's a bit disappointing that trump will be visiting and the prime minister treat him a has has agreed to meet with him it's not completely surprising to be honest but it's disappointing you know. he's accountable to the electorate and i think the population of britain has more than made its views clear in the fact that we don't want trump to visit we cannot stand his views his you know racist tweets that he's come out with his racist policies he's going to come here that that's going to happen we can't do anything about that but whilst he's here we know we will ensure that we hand him you know every step he takes in this country we will be there telling him what we think of him and telling him what we think of his policies should president trump visit go ahead brits. security agencies could be getting

ready for some of the biggest protests to rock this city since the visit of george w. bush in the wake of the iraq war a sally r.t. in london. facebook addiction and reliance on google for information is becoming a growing concern for some among them perhaps surprisingly billionaire george soros who's lashed out of the platforms by branding them a menace as american as across the story. well people all across the spectrum are concerned about the impact facebook and google have on our daily lives but some of the unexpected has decided to chime in and that's the liberal billionaire george soros who's called them a menace to society and an obstacle to innovation. media companies. how people think and be without them even be aware of it and his open society foundation praise social media for to still attaining the toppling of

so-called evil regimes all in the name of social justice and human rights here's an example yeah social media and other information technology tools to say we're going to is ations need to learn how to adapt these tools to the other needs or they risk being left in the dark now soros may be falling out of love with facebook and google but business is business after all his hedge fund still owns shares worth millions in facebook as well as google's parent company alphabet he did however sell some of them back in november making a pretty nice profit so what should we make of his latest attacks a little flashback might be able to provide answers i think that i've been playing blame for everything i am basically there to to make money i cannot and do not look at the social consequences of what i do i think that the problem with george soros today compared with george soros of yesterday is that before

he had confidence that his message was taking root and that his narrative of his particular progressive politics was going to be popular with the people and that the social media channels would then be his ally now i think the problem that he realizes that he has is that his progress a vision of the world. isn't taking hold at all in fact it's the thing that a lot of people. revolting against and so now instead of worrying about the message or his case now he's trying to shut down the very channels that are competing against his message. turkish airstrikes in the kurdish held african region of northern syria have reportedly killed seven civilians it was showing the latest pictures now from the ground here showing the aftermath of the attack it's fear the airstrikes may have claimed even more lives with people trapped under rubble when

it has claimed the turkish aerial bombardments are targeting residential areas. there are no military zones here all of them are civilian areas and the civilians were sleeping it was nothing they bombed even though there were no soldiers here we are all civilians. here a lot michel from about twenty five meters away shrapnel under the open my hand and once it's not why there was shelling civilians i took is conducting what it describes as an anti terror operation in africa and the offensive is supported by several anti syrian government groups and the areas they hold a marked in green on the map the turkish leader though has vowed to expand the operation. we're going to continue the early french operation until we achieve our goals and then as promised to clear man beach of terrorists after that we will continue i was trying to go up to the iraqi border until no terrorists are left.

president out of the one says turkey will push on woods to the city of man butte then further to the east towards the iraqi border but the move would not only mean an all out offensive against the syrian kurds but could also threaten u.s. personnel stationed in this area now where they've been assisting the local kurds in their anti i still operational with a pentagon official though recently announcing the creation of a thirty thousand strong border security force in the region now this wants to be comprised largely of kurds it's something that infuriated ankara right before it launched its attack on kodesh positions in syria and the us secretary of state rex tillerson has since backtracked on the idea saying officials misspoke and that the plans had been misrepresented and the latest telephone call between ankara and washington has also become a source of dispute. president trump relayed concerns the escalating violence in

africa syria risks undercutting i shared goals in syria here to take you to deescalate limited military actions and avoid civilian casualties the white house statement about the content of the phone call between trump and dick and we're probably drafted before the conversation took place because it did not reflect the truth but we have what appears to be a somewhat intractable contradiction between the u.s. interest in syria and the u.s. interest in nato and so this is something that they're trying to find a way out of but it's very difficult given the fact that it was the united states along with turkey saudi arabia france britain which caused the destabilization of syria and led to the present circumstances and the united states on the other hand is tied in with the y.p. g. forces inside syria who have been the main fighting forces that the u.s. has been allied with in the battle against isis but more than that to maintain

a u.s. presence inside syria which the u.s. military has been declaring is there for indefinitely while our new weekly guide to cryptocurrency is kicks off after the break with a look at how it's not just hackers who can steal your pet queens. was selling you on the idea that dropping bombs brings the chicken hawks forcing you to buy the battle. to stop trying to tell you that i'll be gossiping i'd like. to. tell you that i like. that we all. want.

manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling class is protect themselves. with the crime. nor middle of the room sick. it is good to have you with us today a new british satire the death of stalin has sparked heated debate here in russia with some claiming the film distorts history and others saying it's just a comedy. ministry of culture has banned the movie though one moscow cinema went ahead with it sold out screening anyway that led to a police raid. reports from that city well.

ok i asked if this british movie follows the last days and death of joseph stalin as well as the political infighting that ensued so why is it having a problem here in russia it's not about starving themselves but it is about the timing the showing of this movie was supposed to coincide with the anniversary of the battle of stalingrad it was one of the most decisive moments in the second world war and it's bloodiest battle and since this movie is dark comedy it is showing in a rather satirical way some of the people that made this victory for russia in that war possible so some are saying that this movies is a bit insensitive for the veterans and those who cherish the memories of the great

patriotic war many elderly people will perceive it as an offensive mockery of the soviet past the country that conquered fascism and most disgusting the victims of stalinism we don't have censorship we're not afraid of critical assessment of our history. such movies shouldn't even get into russia they shouldn't. just don't let them be shown. i'm ready to come to the cinemas where they feel on the show to speak to those who bought tickets the film is a provocation that might add fuel to the fire so the russian ministry of culture decided to revoke the license of the movie when it comes to public opinion well it's played some agree that some may find the timing a bit insensitive others are saying it's art it's not intended to be story accurate and that people probably shouldn't be taking it too seriously it's just a black comedy what distortion in songs are people talking about. it is brilliant i

think such films should be shown on prime time t.v. the prime time this film is from the tragic past protests johnny cash in syria from the viewpoint of historical accuracy miracle me a few months ago a russian movie found itself in. identical situation the film called matilda was telling the story of the last russian nicholas the second and his love affair with a ballerina and the reason that we face so much opposition both from the politicians and from ordinary people in the street is because according to the russian orthodox church nicholas the second is a saint so some details of his personal of his love life could be disturbing to a religious person in russia the outcome of that story was the movie was allowed to be shown and people had a chance to make up their own mind well the fate of the death of stalin remains in limbo because down the. cryptocurrency market is like

a roller coaster ride prices shooting up and shooting down it's a high stakes game brad cohen for example crushed to hop its value just a month after reaching its all time high and to keep you up to speed. santiago will be bringing you weekly updates from the world of high tech currencies. today crypto is unique. crypto is empowering. crypto is on the verge of a global financial revolution cripps it was a direct challenge to the world banking system allowing you to be the bank and make the money win or lose in the end crypto was bound to lead the world into the future welcome to our weekly digest on everything hot in the world of change this is our t.v. script would be your host some tiago. the cryptocurrency market was shaken on friday after around five hundred million dollars worth of tokens was stolen by hackers from digital wallet so the japanese are strange it's

the biggest such heist yet but you don't need to know much about technology in order to steal cryptocurrency as one investor explained to me go. not all stories in the world of crypto have a happy ending meet max lord soca. a young rich and daring crypto trader who kick started his fortune by getting a return of three hundred thousand dollars from a small investment of just a thousand into early stages of the second most powerful crypto currency the theory i'm becoming an active trader and publicly showcasing his success and sharing tips on his you tube channel he has made himself long ramble to a new trend of crypto thieves last week as thailand residents the robbers caught up with him and stole a hundred thousand dollars worth of bitcoin i met with max to get the details of this truly eye opening incident for the block chain community musician recording the more signing and you and i went home after dinner with friends and you unlock

the door and suddenly two scary guys walked up to us as it turned out they vented through the back door that's where they went caught by the security cameras the robbers pushed us in such as on the couch took away our i phones and covered our heads so we couldn't see anything the third person came in and started searching the place he took my debit card and later emptied my count it took our three mac books are i phones all documents including passports and even funk charges they threaten to druggists to turn us into the thai police i knew it all sounded insane but even though they didn't do any of that it was still ready to use violence so i decided not to be the hero and do what they said they stole about one hundred thousand bucks they could have stolen all but they were in a hurry my case is not unique not so long ago pavel national was beaten up in st petersburg and twenty million rubles were stolen i've just read about that and sure enough that's the kind of thing that happened to me as well here's what i think

thieves used to steal money but now they realize that cryptic currencies are a better deal it's easier because you can trace bitcoin transactions so yes i think this is a new trend max now. it's living such a public lifestyle flaunting his success and considers this a very expensive lesson well learned. well thanks for joining us here on this saturday more of your world wide news and about half an hour. is america as it actually is a bomb over the fantasy child is reality and he's doing what you'd expect a seasoned businessman to do cut all the nonsense out of the mix bring jobs back. here's what people have been saying about rejected in the us exactly just pull along awesome the only show i go out of my way to lunch you know what it is that

i'm after the we're going on the ground as today u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson commemorates the dead of auschwitz seventy three years to the day that soviet troops liberated the nazi concentration camp coming up in the show as all the bosses of multi-billion dollar failed multinational cover the in a summoned to westminster for questioning we are one of jeremy corbin's key parliamentary allies the former shadow emergencies minister chris williamson why his party countenanced signing deals with the caribbean and the director of global justice now which is a future british labor government to atone for its sins and stop the n.h.s. being used as a cash cow by a profit hungry pharmaceutical industry. is she going to face up to the reality and take action to save the n.h.s.

from death by the thousand. jeremy corbyn let alone u.k. foreign secretary boards johnson slams the government for destroying britain's health yes this goal is a ball coming up a debate going on the ground but first while washington decides on yet more sanctions against what it perceives as its nuclear armed opponent moscow it is russia that prepares to host talks on syria in sochi for united states media characterized as fake news by the republic's president this is the kind of reporting to expect on monday his us state funded p.b.s. one of the main drivers of the war these past two years russia's president vladimir putin began an effort to put a greater political stamp on what comes next in syria. he was a confident cruden who declared the end of the syrian civil war is finally in sight and he was clear about who gets the credit as well he might be but why is putin one

of the main drivers of the syrian war surely he's one of the main peacemakers along with president rouhani of turkey and iran who are meeting to discuss peace in russia on monday surely one of the main drivers of war was this man. as the friends of syria we are mobilizing humanitarian support and support for the opposition when we went into libya and we were able to immediately stop the massacre there because of the unique circumstances and the coalition that we had helped to organize we also had to make sure that walmart gadhafi didn't stay there former president obama justifying regime change in syria by bizarrely using libya and defacto supporting the assassination of muammar gaddafi there and tourism a was of course in the u.k. government when it supported destroying africa's richest country and was prime minister when she was arguably one of the main drivers of the syrian war killing maiming or displacing millions we need a political solution a political long term solution which sees a syria without assad who is jury is

a may only u.k. prime minister because of a defacto billion plus bribe to tell other countries who they should or shouldn't be led by and isn't her government support for groups like the white helmets tantamount to being one of the main drivers of the war in syria well arguably it's all over now and while u.k. media outlets like the state mandated b.b.c. and state owned channel four continue to broadcast the questionable footage no one at sochi in russia or on monday will be taking any notice of their so-called journalism the three powers of russia turkey and iran will also take less notice of the cia u.s. officials say the president donald trump has decided to end the cia's program of arming syrian surgeons the cia program was launched by them president barack obama in twenty thirteen the cia is reported to have spent up to one billion dollars a year on the theory operations informed opinion in the usa appears to be clearly

running ahead of british mainstream journalists the minority tory government and the blairite neocon majority in the bottom entry labor party it's been widely reported that for years now the cia was providing arms intelligence money. other types of support to these armed militants who were working hand in hand and who are working hand in hand and oftentimes under the command of al qaeda in syria but have donald trump cancelled cia support for so-called moderate rebels driesum a in a cabinet of continue to support a coup d'etat in syria that's why u.k. labor leader jeremy corbyn as well as our next guest oppose the bombing of damascus for chris williams and britain's former shadow emergencies minister money is apparently better spent on health services than bombing urban centers in the middle east he joins me now chris thanks for coming back on the show before we go into health service issues and and other infrastructure issues is it true that around christmas time you advocated the doubling of council tax across this country have no what i've suggested is that local government seized by the initiative by using

legislation that the tories put in place in two thousand and twelve to offer a range of discount so essentially what you would be able to do is stop the cuts in local government at a stroke by loading the burden on those with the broad shoulders so those basic living in the biggest houses and freeze concept or even reduce it for people living in small the warnings in the band sort of a to see possibly even in even a in some areas there's no one size fits all it will just depend on how many of the long properties in age there are in any given local authority area which would then give local authorities you see to load the burden there but it would have to then be agreed in a referendum on that the two thousand and eleven localism act should be getting that democratic buy and people would have to vote for it but the choice would be either a construct increase across the board of six percent all for most people freeze it and stop the cuts the alternative is increase everybody and continue with the cuts i think that's a pretty good deal and a stopgap measure which is well worth considering where is that idea right now what

the labor party policy is something that came up in my local authority area following the latest iteration of the cuts in dalby the council's plan to close the largest give them over to the third sector a lot of local people are asking me what i was going to do about it it's true that . that this idea came forward and so therefore been going around speaks people of the country who are interested in this idea no local forces take it but i want to seriously giving it consideration well i want to well maybe i won't stop it because we'll talk about labor in a second but. move to the fact that boris johnson u.k. foreign secretary is going to join jerry goldman's labor party given that he wants more money for the health service here well i mean a clearly than l service is in desperate need of investment what we actually need to do it seems to me that with the national you as morris johnson well i buy the idea that we put more money into the national service but we also need to reform the national health service to kick the privateers out of health care indeed in the aftermath of the karelian scandal we need to remove the private sector from all public services and what they're doing essentially and what has been happening for

decades we've heard of neo liberalism it's something that's afflicted new labor as well is the public services have been used as a cash cow to generate private profit and we're not getting value for money that's the point and i think what we're suggesting is that yes we need to invest more but we want to get more bang for the book as it were and have proper democratic oversight of the public services the way in which the profit is make their margins is by screwing down the workforce that they employ cutting back on their terms and conditions and diminishing the quality of service to the general public and we see that with the crisis in the national health service which is apparently not a health service never been better prepared for the others. according to the prime minister but the reality is you know i'm going to stocking up any people are dying while they're waiting for an ambulance to arrive people being treated on corydoras i mean that absolute appalling mess but is it not true that your party when in power is signing off deals with karylle it your leader said no there's no contract

signed with the prime minister us i have a piece of paper here which has the lead services the east lead orbital road a preferred bidder signature by the leeds council or neighbor for karelian they were signing things off. karelian before the collapse how how could you possibly i think i think i think they retrieved that and i think what we've they have to there is no good no no i think the treaty before they actually signed that off but you know we've had as you say there's no contract no record was in lying directly but there was a preferred bidder stages given to really after all the profit yes indeed and the problem has been the model that held sway for the last four decades is not fit for purpose was really fit for purpose then and for a lot of local authorities or public sector organizations it was a kind of only show in town i mean when i was leader of the council in dalby a number of years ago when i did the first peer fire scheme in the city was during a labor government that's true but it was to bring properties back into use and

then to revenue were involved in that i was because it was the only show in says it has the problem of utah the dog against new liberalism you have a lead council which is trying to have negotiations with karelian while corby in the newly does a no no we don't want that contract as in the health services it's not true is it it is true and i think you've got to separate the difficulties local authorities find themselves in in terms of the way in which they can access finance and central government what we need is a change in the system and that will only happen when we get a change of government or a change of heart from the agility in the system or a change in people in the labor party who's been appointed shadow secretary of state for northern ireland he will not be used for pharmaceutical companies we're talking to nick dearden in the end of this show about the need for labor to call out the big pharmaceutical companies because they're charging so much in the n.h.s. you do deals with i mean you have people that explicitly support the big

pharmaceutical companies well i mean obviously i would have to speak for himself but our position is you know in relation to going forward and how we organize economy is i think very clear on the general. corbin i've already accepted the fact that you know for the last forty years almost to gordon brown and tony blair i'm not going to be like tourism in slag your they're all of the organ is different absolutely but how different is he i mean you have a councils in this country labor council get off shoring funds to avoid tax have to go to a local well listen local government is in a poll as situation and i don't know the details about why certain doing that but when local government if it absolutely decimated with funding cuts you know there will be some creative accountant see going on in order to try to minimise the impact of suspect on frontline services but officer called speak for certain i don't know that the local government is one thing what about the fact that at the conference in brighton widely seen as

a successful labor conference there were tables going for more than a thousand pounds for pharmaceutical company bosses to come and meet with people in germany corbin's labor party to represent pharmaceuticals in the right new n.h.s. future you offer they can they can come and talk to is certainly but i am very strong of a view that there is a very powerful case to bring much if not all of the pharmaceutical industry into public ownership because if you look at the cost to the national health service of you know buying drugs medicines from the pharmaceutical industry is colossal and i know a lot of people will all be well you know they make the margins because they put a lot of effort into research to develop it and they got to get their money back somehow i think i'll bet on frankly by the public sector the public sector is perfectly capable of taking research develops and indeed many of the great leaps forward that we've made technologically speaking have actually been achieved funks the innovation in the public sector which is then being exploited by the private sectors where we are the sixth richest nation on earth and yet we've got people

sleeping in shop doorways in every town and city in the country every town or city in the country i think what is going desperately wrong when that kind of thing is allowed to happen and you know in many ways as. economy because there are all sorts of costs to the to the health service in terms of criminal. you know the police and the criminal justice system etc who have to pick up the pieces of a broken system i mean you know the former prime minister david cameron used talk about broken britain on going to me or if it was broken is broken because of neoliberalism and if it is broken then my goodness me is absolutely smashed to smithereens now of the last eight years of relentless leave many people may agree with you even gordon what you are talking about pharmaceuticals momentum which has been credited with being so important for jeremy corbin's leadership had to come out fighting on the murdoch front pages this week saying we're not going to diesel lect labor m.p.'s i labor m.p.'s that completely disagree with what you do.
