east have normal blood it means i don't think this is clean competitions we will see there are skiers doping also in this competitions we have asked the international olympic committee whether it will investigate these don't think allegations and we're still awaiting a reply however a sports lawyer we spoke to told this it's worrying the i.o.c. hasn't publicly commented on the issue. what's interesting is you heard the outcry in the media about these allegations you haven't seen any action by water as it currently stands i don't see there being an investigation which you know is in the light of everything we've discovered with regards to russian doping allegations is troubling everybody where there is a problem should be investigated we need to understand that the doping is in fact a global problem is raised by this documentary we need to understand that doping as happened at occurs across the world and that this is not an incident slated to
4:32 pm
russia this is a global problem it's a continuing problem and it's something we need to address seriously right now even the greatest it's a tipping experts in the west says a lot of cannot currently detect doping in athletes that's a problem with many modern day athletes described as heroes we take a unique look at people who question a plate does that it's high so well it will two heroes who became and then take athletes and this is the story of soviet sports men and women who defended the country in the great patriotic war before taking part in the fast and paid games for the nation in one thousand nine hundred fifty two here's a preview. despite its time given the history of you do you know who's dominated the international sport however this was not about the numbers of those champions from. the first some of your limpy team of the one nine hundred fifty two when the team did seeds of this concentration camp prisoners and front line soldiers.
4:33 pm
because you're more mature and for the ones who. are going to going to have a great future you think didier we're going to go with. you to pass found no evidence some russia somehow interfered in the u.k. brags that referendum as according to the company's global head of public policy has testified in front of the u.k. house of commons committee be looked at all advertisements with any connection to russia and we found no evidence of our services being used to interfere in the referendum but we've got to look in the survey for the pay for advertising the election but actually the operation of channels will go to the films which are which can be linked back to russian agents who have a political purpose and message through the referendum would you be able to do that
4:34 pm
for us we are happy to cooperate with that investigation so it's yes yes. that's quest live to our correspondent on this to see a check and now for more and to see the you tube is not the first social media to investigate alleged russian meddling in the brics a referendum isn't that's right nickie you know despite these are endless attempts to accuse russia of brecht's that meddling in this pressure on online platforms to expose any shady business that russia might have been up to yet another revelation this time from you tube that nothing of sort had happened it was said that all odds with any connection to briggs it was examined and no evidence of this was found now this indeed yet another concession of the u.k. parliamentary committee inquiry into feek news who this time travel to washington to ask their questions but it has to be said that despite all of their hard work this inquiry has produced no results of substance so far if you remember previously
4:35 pm
this committee seems to have been sort of left hanging by twitter. we found that one percent of the accounts in the data sets were registered in russia could you confirm how many other accounts were being controlled from agencies in russia even if they were not registered there we don't have sufficiently strong evidence to enable us to conclusively linked them with russia the failure to obtain straight answers is simply increasing concerns about these issues rather than reassuring people. well this as google also said they found no evidence of russian meddling in the bronx that referendum as well as of course facebook following their investigation having said that they found that russia spent seventy three p. on any kind of post related to brock said and of course this was something that was reiterated again today at these hearings in washington that was said that there's no evidence of any meddling at the moment now regarding the financing of campaigns today there are reports that a u.k.
4:36 pm
campaign to reverse the breaks it received a hefty boost from american business magnate george soros what else we know about that. well that's right it was reported that george soros the american billionaire had invested as much as four hundred thousand pounds into an anti bracks it campaign group this group best for britain is a pro e.u. lobbying group that really believes that britain should lead others rather than leave the european union the conduct all sorts of work to try to influence public opinion as well as m.p.'s who any who could have any kind of influence in the process this is what they said. george soros foundations have along with a number of other major donors also made significant contributions to our work indeed through his foundation he has contributed four hundred thousand pounds he's funding is one among many sources well in response to this downing street has reacted they've said that there will be no second referendum and that they will
4:37 pm
deliver the breadth that results that they promised to the british people however still more activity continues with questions about where exactly influence is coming from as we know that there is that there is an anti bracks it party in the u.k. about to be launched called re new and it's reported that there is quite a bit of influence coming from france french m.p.'s who are part of a man who are mark holmes on marsh movement who have basically been said to support and inspire and even reportedly give advice to this movement really raising questions about possibly sometimes influence comes from places that are not the ones that we're expected to see a check and i thank you for those details now u.s. lawmakers threaten to cut world health organization funding after it found the top american made weed killer probably causes cancer more details on that after this short break.
4:38 pm
i played for many clubs over the years so i know the game and so i got. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch or the final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the shaper money to kill you narrowness and spending to get to the twenty million. it's an experience like nothing else on here because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful game migrate to one more chance for. the next minute. here's what people have been saying about rejecting the night that you know i was actually just full on awesome the only show i'm going out of my way to launch you know a lot of the really packed a punch oh yeah it's the john oliver of hearty americans do the same we are
4:39 pm
apparently better than blue nothings but i see people you never heard of love right back to the night i'm president of the world bank so take. me seriously send us an e-mail. welcome back the publican lawmakers in the u.s. saw threatening to cut funding to the well tell focalize ations cancer research program soft of the global body said america's most widely used weight made by the agribusiness giant monsanto probably causes cancer. there are real repercussions to i arch unsubstantiated claims which are not backed by reliable data i argue your responsible handling of data does real harm to job creators and the public's view of the scientific process while the appearance of agenda driven manipulation is troubling in its own it's even more so when considering that arc final conclusion
4:40 pm
is not only on the fringe of scientific world but is completely and totally by itself this kind of shoddy work is unacceptable from any scientific body let alone one funded by the american taxpayer. let me live from washington with more on this is american samoa good to see you so why are republicans so angry well back in twenty fifteen the international agency for research on cancer concluded that the active ingredient in round up a life estate could be carcinogenic to humans and republicans believe that the study was flawed and now roundup is made by monsanto the world's most widely used we've killer it is important that we review the methods and tactics that industry has used to influence this administration and attack independent scientific organizations like the world health organization's international agency for
4:41 pm
research on cancer or i would like to say that fundamentally this hearing is about the ability of a public health agency to call a carcinogen a carcinogen even if that carcinogen makes a huge amount of money for powerful corporations. now monsanto also sells genetically modified seeds now what these seeds do is that they produce crops that can tolerate life i say so that these are crops can grow without any surrounding weeds now genetic and it actually modified crops have been banned in over thirty five countries but not in the u.s. but it's interesting to note that while international organizations like the international agency for research in cancer have concluded that life is harmful the united states environmental protection agency has found otherwise so these lawmakers intentions are quite unclear. in washington thank you those details. and today the body of a russian military pilot ramon filipov was returned to his hometown of the wrong
4:42 pm
the major died fighting in syria after his plane was shot down by militants. the funeral for a major roman filipe of who died tragically fighting in syria takes place here in his hometown of earlier we saw hundreds of people attending the memorial ceremony as family members friends his colleagues people who didn't know him all came to pay their last respects and in the same crowd say here at the cemetery women as to speak to some people who share it with us their memories of mine. and i just wanted to pay my respects to such a strong and brave man. was my close friend he was kind and loved life every minute he was ready to help to support your few such people we remember him forever. was a very kind very fair person he always smiled
4:43 pm
a lot not everyone can do what he did he should have a special understanding of honor and duty just like he did. the pilot's plane was shot down on saturday in the northwestern part of syria which is still controlled by the latest incarnation of the terrorist group al nostra roman tried to stay in the air as long as he could he then managed to a jacket from the airplane only to find himself surrounded by terrorist the pilot of the plane supporting role months shared the details of their last communications his voice remained calm when i want him there all of the you get out of the movie yes i see them was the commander's reply and then he said so evenly as if it was something ordinary and unimportant i got hit hard the right is on fire moving south the lift slowing down to about twenty seconds here i did call the search and rescue then he ordered me to gain altitude of course i didn't do it to
4:44 pm
leave my commander is the last thing i would do i always tried to have his back during flights and now i have to do it on the ground while he was fighting i stood there and made several attacks to vehicles that were getting closer to the olive groves where romance knocked down i stayed until the fuel was extremely low i barely made it back to the airfield roman had waited for the terrorist to get closer to him and only after that he decided to detonate a grenade taking his own life but avoiding capture he even managed to shout this is for our world lads what he did that russia's defense ministry released several facts about his life he left a wife and a four year old daughter behind he was an experienced pilot and was not his first time serving in syria he was part of a dozen successful military operations and he died as a hero fighting terrorist at the age of thirty three. british newspaper the
4:45 pm
times has accused the b.b.c. of bias for renting out its t.v. studios to our channel this is how the times describe the situation. the b.b.c. is making money by hiring out its studios to r.t. the television channel controlled by moscow the b.b.c.'s dealings prompted damian collins the conservative chairman of the commons media select committee to question the b.b.c.'s ethics the b.b.c. those says that it hires out studios just like any other international media independent journalist martin summers thieve double standard thin the times article think is that there's a general attack all r.t. in political attack in the west they don't like your t.v. station because they see it as competition for their own narrative about events of course there is a whole attempt in the west to the legitimize the russian point of view of things quite a strange the times which is owned by rupert murdoch and of course
4:46 pm
a lot of print anything it likes takes a particularly hard line for example on briggs it but they say the b.b.c. can't engage in commercial activities on the side which they've been doing for years without any interference whatsoever is not impartial i mean he's got an agenda there is very definite got definitely got his views and he uses his media to push those views though in a free society that's acceptable to a certain extent it's a bit cheeky of him to start checking attacking other people for expressing their views in a perfectly legitimate fashion and it just shows how twisted the debate about these things in the west has now become. for the latest headlines join my colleague at the top of the hour. and i'm completely confused about why a republican administration made a change that was the same surely. part of the democratic philosophy i can only
4:47 pm
think that somewhere deep within what they call the deep state in the us treasury there were left leaning bureaucrats who who implemented this change to a territoriality based system of taxation without anybody actually being aware of what was going on. in. the war zone you on the idea that dropping bombs brings peace to the chickenhawk forcing you to fight the battle is going. to do socks for the tell you that will be gossip and public but also the most important. office of advertising telling me you are not cool enough to buy their product. although hawkes for me and on the board will want.
4:48 pm
water company is a profitable public firm that supplies cheap water some more than half a million households a small percentage five point four six is already on by the french multinational suez. what it was like oh my god this is where i was asked and i was a big stand i guess of course i'm going to die so you know that is the simple message that he bought. doesn't it get him out of this only get us to monitor this and. then now come in and she has more so to float up top with elizabeth that will be a political he's not pity maybe you know if you took the feet.
4:49 pm
in a moment for your kid then. eve you could b.c. . they known as a middle class the most i see is the. bit i was never jealous upon a bit of santa no prisoners recorded feet out of a stick a man of the chair. by d.a.p. is greece's largest water company it provides five point five million people with water. by the looks of the africa. up. by norse anything that's the. epic i just mean above us he should make his helmet on a fair settlement with us you know i'm almost in my system if i can see if it will happen but they just tell minimize it came out got.
4:50 pm
it. something i stop ok that is a strong us use them off so they better not let the soldier boss purities a stronger as a risk you risk so they park on my shelf at least get it on the ship ballasts said go where you have you know no problem up to c.b.s. i said this is your particular bar. about increases that are dead. or fashion across your. there's a. democratic shill decision. if you know pretty nifty. and what's a privatization officially it's not the commission's policia mississippi state however it's true if you don't look at the troika it's and if you look at the
4:51 pm
memorandum of understanding between for example the troika and portugal the commission as part of the troika is asking to further privatized across the book to go so in the troika 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. see if you do this on our wish was sitting. mostly without. an interview or. simply. put in see if appropriate even. pushes you go fundamental means. that i can push pull the ball from each could have. the totals this but if it is
4:52 pm
a so you could if you had no more. concerned about the pressure being put on southern countries european water movement activists ropes to rim. they highlight of the european commission as part of a troika so to force southern european countries mainly greece and portugal to privatized 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.
4:53 pm
to death. this once i was privy to it and bunches was as they counted a duffer to cosign. such nice bets on i couldn't stand one of the accepted going to see best fit it was something i don't. know so did some enormous ego comic every nothing yeah if it's out of the depths of a thought if i thought that juvenile id goes a little botany see me but i shifted below. and not by deed. you sure could get your gun to disguise your bridge you know that since we can't hide it will explain minimum opinion dissenters extreme events you can be good as a cop you will secretly got lucky let me be the last did. you not look at dog ac receive these dual result was that his comment a very serious one. when
4:54 pm
detroit became 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 or government by the troika to build. the i was government. a company called irish water. which began installing meters. aside to people's homes. the first protests took place. in scads of the city of clock loreal woman went out in the morning and said you are not putting up be the outside my house. i told him they were coming to this tears we didn't want the water meters and that was asked.
4:55 pm
what he and i were to there was a massive support of 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 right to toes and not. my daughter and. i thought it was my. 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 were joining the docks and you know what had the water meters got to do with the fact that you can't see a doctor should go to hospital what the water meters got to do with the banks coming in taking people so this. you know this is a sewer phone a little bit of power you can't go and fun to try but you can stand outside your
4:56 pm
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. was this. 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 upwards and their debt downwards. there is a problem with the leaks and we couldn't find them until we have brought in some
4:57 pm
natures so if i see my solution suddenly it says there'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 use of. an island there 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 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
4:58 pm
so now we really have to invest. so we need a structure to invest we need to wage borrowed money and then we need a way to pay fresh paying out of general taxation and people who work would probably end up paying 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 rock to spend do i choose to spend it on middle east or do i choose to stand up billion euro in fixing the leaks and building a new one for structure. despite the water having been paid through general taxation. no tax exemptions were plans to offset the new charges. of forcing water made against abel as worse as. the threat
4:59 pm
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 as the first step towards privatisation. mr ferguson 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 gus in this matter with my officials at the time i insisted that the legislation would have to include three point one the legislation was handed to me before i went into the parliament it wasn't in it.
5:00 pm
starts really. central office and i would say of course we all know privatisation is ultimately and it's just. 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. the best out of majority of. the concepts was proposing to perform.
