7:36 pm
seen him in the role of as a broadcaster but you know he's in front of the media all the time and when when he wants to he's incredibly entertaining so i think you know it's incredible that we've managed to sign him. it sounds like a plot straight out of a hollywood movie what's coming next but it did happen in a russian village a mix up at a maternity ward forty years ago left two moms raising each other's children. night may d.n.a. tests have not confirmed the suspicions that the families had in fact been harboring for decades as you're about to hear an issue sethi reports. it's a tell of heartache confusion and attempted met and it's taken two women almost forty years to find out they were raised by the wrong families in a village hospital near the oval mountains for women beth on the same day in march nine hundred seventy eight but who knew about this left with the wrong babies this
7:37 pm
is the monica had blue eyes for a suspicions with a number logical father he thought his wife had cheated an assumption which had terrifying consequences of course he didn't love her that much one day i came back from work in my mother told me she saw him covering veronica's face with a pillow i was ironing when i next saw him i threw a hot iron at him i said if you touch the child again i don't know what i'll do to you eventually he abandons the family meanwhile they are growing up nearby with tanya again raised by a couple believing had to be their right but there was no family resemblance the team of this met to discuss their doubts. i have a birth certificate how can i give up my baby and i have an aunt that will more suspicions when for on that became the age of take she was diagnosed with an inherited disease a condition which no one in the family had but years later went for and because mother went back to the hospital fraunces old medical records had been destroyed
7:38 pm
and then to tend towards itself no longer existed forty years on and the families finally took d.n.a. tests. i always thought i looked like grandma when i found out i was shocked i thought they wouldn't love me anymore now that they found their real daughter. the only good has always asked that question mom why do i not look like you why do i have a different character she's so calm and even tempered her face is different from ours i used to joke you must have been switched at birth. it's been a long painful path for both families they say they have never gratz the mother is the one who brought you up not the one who gave birth and that would just. when you were a huge reason why you. were going to. overspeed though is it. just on your face of the. deal.
7:39 pm
then yes. that veronica is still haunted by the suffering she saw only of you i feel sorry for my mom because i have seen her struggling for all her life not everyone can deal with it not everyone can be like her for the sake of her children she has forgotten about everything she would go to the end of the world only for her children to be safe and sound but i would go to court for moral compass sation at least because we're so we should birth because i feel myself guilty for her in life and that my father left her. the families have now come to terms with what happens and even say they've gained more than they've lost but tanya yuliya my grandchildren we're all a big family now we're all relatives and you can turn back time. disneyland considered a once in a lifetime experience of adventure wonder joy is new but is there a flip side to the magic kingdom we asked tonight around thirty thousand people work at the disneyland resort in california to make dreams become reality according

7:42 pm
you the quality or the need to feel borrowed this much to. so here's a civil war in yemen a continuing to leave deep scars which will take the country decades to recover from now one artist is trying to ensure that the victims are not forgotten but painting murals in their memory all around the capital. better than i was the feeling of safety of peace the destruction is everywhere blood the killings crime all across a lot of crime. it was our first time just alike

7:48 pm
come after it and say we're going underground as a unit go she. is scheduled to have meetings with chin fein and leaders in brussels about the future of the united kingdom coming up in the show why is britain hosting a saudi leader implicated in what the united nations calls the world's worst humanitarian crisis we speak to understand from the campaign against arms trade about how billions of pounds worth of u.k. weapons sales to the kingdom threatens tens of millions in yemen and are lives in danger now u.k. prime minister theresa may appears to have ignored a hundred page document from brussels about what new customs union will mean for britain's border with europe we are asked jeremy called and shouted secretary. to the treasury peter down with the tourism a is now crossed and the e.u. red line to fall plus poverty police brutality and class war thirty four years to
7:49 pm
the day that u.k. money is striking again changing everything we have music from clash influence former mining town band the dead time to little mick all the civil coming of a days going underground but first today marks forty eight years to the day that the nonproliferation treaty went into effect to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons around the world or as lyndon johnson have it as he bombed vietnam and i have described this treaty as the most important international agreement. since the beginning of the nuclear age but a handful of countries don't agree like the nuclear armed british backed government of israel we have a long standing policy and we're not about to trigger it but let me tell you if people signed the nuclear nonproliferation treaty the n.p.t. now doesn't guarantee anything israel's weapons of mass destruction campaign was revealed from london by nuclear whistleblower mordechai vanunu who israel currently
7:50 pm
doesn't allow to be interviewed by the media but is britain a signatory of the i.p.t. abiding by its terms some believe the tens of billions a minority government needed to raise a may want to put into trident nuclear weapons is a breach of the treaty some like u.k. labor leader jeremy corbyn the friction treaty has requirements. just steps towards this whole. thing hundred sixty seven other states to possess them he. says. well joining me now is andrew smith the media coordinator for a campaign against the arms trade he's one of the main organizers of wednesday's protest against saudi crown prince mohammed bin salmond's visit to the u.k.
7:51 pm
that saudi arabia currently had so-called civil nuclear talks with the united states for a program in the kingdom thanks so much and you for coming back on the show before we get to any saudi visits or arms fairs and does since it's the anniversary of nonproliferation treaty does raise amaze nuclear program violate the n.p.t. certainly seems to violate the spirit of it doesn't. i mean what we need to see is just sort of where you try to clear weapons up creating tight it doesn't sound like the government's got any long term vision of eradicating chinese and the more money which is being spent worldwide on tight and more. concerned we should all be ok why are you one of the main organizers of a protest against the defacto leader of one of the leaders of the kingdom of saudi arabia one of the third biggest most growing markets for u.k. goods in this post directed world well the trained prince is a figurehead for one of the most brutal and oppressive regimes anywhere and waddled
7:52 pm
human rights record of this age is absolutely appalling and it's not just that he's also been the chief architect of the terrible brutal bombardment of yemen a war which has killed thousands of people destroyed all life saving infrastructure up and down the country and created one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world and yet despite all of this despite his terrible human rights record despite the atrocities being committed every day in yemen he's being given the red carpet treatment by trees and me and will be posing for photos of missteps of dining get the better aids i'm sure to raise i'm a minority government leader here and this film would be quick to say it's not them that are at fault britain of course. iran that's at fault that seems to be certainly the position of the british foreign office well for me will also be the case we don't support anyone selling arms to hooty as i have been a terrible conflict for years in which tens of thousands of people you want to be
7:53 pm
easier when we don't want to when we want to peaceful solution but that's not going to happen as long as there's it brutal compartment where civilians are paying the price that civilians are being killed we have seen the largest on record of call it out with over a million people in the south this is a giving aid to yemen and they are not targeting any civilians purposely any aid which they are giving which is having an impact on reaching people has to be welcomed but the good which is being done from any good which is being done by that aid is being undone by the brutal bombardment which is surrounding yemen and the brutal. compartment which has been inflicted on people ok will boris johnson's also been praising saudi arabia for allowing women to drive one of these things to an obviously nobody we're never going to criticize the saudi government for giving women relate to drive a should have had a long long time ago that is the point where we're seeing reforms very often very
7:54 pm
very cosmetic very small reforms and what we tend to do is highlight how you louve a bar for human rights was to begin with first woman in government as well as well we're not going to be against. the government who are these advances in human rights obviously anyone who cares about human rights will welcome any advances but if this is by the british government for masses of billions of dollars worth of if they didn't do that they would be outside of the international community and wouldn't be introducing these measures for human rights only save them before any of these reforms came in so they did a bit of still by far the largest buy in of u.k. arms and that hasn't just been the case under trees and me it's been previous prime ministers as well this is very much been an institutional issue but really the respect of all of the rhetoric and irrespective of cosmetic change we are still talking about one of the worst most appalling human rights records in what it was which has run a terrible crackdown against human rights campaigners the terrible crackdown against all dissent we're talking
7:55 pm
a regime that executes teenagers and behead people for taking part in protests this is not here which is reforming in any field meaningful way and it's not the u.k. should be arming and supporting you we've had members of parliament we've had former ambassadors on this program and again and again they point to the strategy that engagement with saudi authorities will be the way forward on the human rights issues you explain that nobody is a gauge we won't be the way forward when nobody's against engagement appends of course what's meant by engagement obviously we want to reason me to be telling the stated. for human rights records as well but we don't believe she's going to be doing that at the same time as she is arming and supporting an uncritically as well we want to see meaningful change in sadia libya but after sixty years sixty years of u.k. arm sales and sixty years of suppose you can gauge when the kind of one craning achievement we can point to is that women are able to drive now and say to labor we
7:56 pm
should have been allowed to do that decades and decades ago we are talking a regime which is still one of the most oppressive in the world and the fundamentals about aren't changing to we you and your fellow team with can barely get the arms trade what sure is i'm a shaking hands this week with crown prince where were you really believe that we would have more influence on all these things if we didn't sell them rockets and go wild moment the podium relationship lies very much for so you do but one thing about the images of trees and me shaking hands with mohamed and salman on the steps of danish street is that that will be seen as a major propaganda coup in the policies of riyadh there is no question of it they will regard this as a glowing endorsement on the international stage however if a message which sends to people who are being tortured inside of prisons or to people who are having their homes destroyed in yemen is a very different message message it sends divestments but their human rights don't matter message it sends to vend is that their lives are of less importance than
7:57 pm
profits for be systems when i'm sure you i don't know whether you just say that the royal air force. trainers are training. saudis to. believe there is should they disobey their orders we don't believe they should be taking part in training programs because they're ordered to where there's a beer is i mean if you. want to do so it was more of a point we would make the u.k. has been utterly complicit in the destruction of yemen from day one it has the u.k. government is right again says it is giving aid to yemen but the tribute has given so many to yemen and we hope it but it is reaching people in need but the key point is the u.k. has also license almost five billion pounds worth of fighter jets and bombs to do so in some bombardment began and there is no question that results have been devastating even borders johnson has called it the worst humanitarian crisis in the world yes a humanitarian crisis that has been caused in part by weapons license by boris
7:58 pm
johnson and his colleagues so demonstration is this week how many people are you going to actually expect there given a large manufacturing industry is involved in selling arms to saudi arabia but what we know is that public opinion is very solidly against these arms sales in fact all the polling has shown a consistent two friends of population are strongly against arms exports this idea and terms of numbers of people who are working in the arms trade you're talking a very small sector of the economy of tommy zero point two percent of jobs and of course now we want to see those skills been put into positive industries sustainable industries of any areas of engineering rather than to companies who are dependent on boarding conflicts in order to make a profit and terms of how many people will be there we hope to have as large a number as possible because we want to send the message loudly and clearly that this visit is not in our name these arms sales are not in our name and the and the prince is not welcome and just vitally if you put yemen the world's worst
7:59 pm
humanitarian crisis to one side you're not impressed by reforms not only of the driving but fewer crucifix. that are currently going on in the kingdom although i understand one hundred forty people were executed last year and one has been no slow day in and the executions which are taking place might be doing is a minute for much of someone not too sure about the numbers seem to be pretty stable when it comes to real fundamentals i'm not sure that we have seen meaningful change we want to see meaningful change and we want to see increased rights for women is no question that anybody a company can come in advance is for women in society we want to see total reform we don't want to see these being imposed by a dictatorship we want to see even being by a democracy why do you think british media is. little or no politicians i'm not necessarily sure that the media does but i think that with this with ukraine
8:00 pm
obviously cares a great deal of his reputation huge time and effort into trying to project himself as a modernizer and as a liberal but of course beneath. p.r. the near we're talking about is. the percentage of an authoritative brutal regime and the architect of one of the worst humanitarian catastrophes in the world and that's what people should remember thank you q after the break britain is shattered chief secretary to the treasury peeta dow jones us if he thinks trades amaze finished after friday's break that speech as urgent irish border today continue in brussels and thirty four years to the day after scargill nearly saved britain from the neo liberal fatter revolution in music from the dead time for the morning debut album a stage of the hall the civil coming over but you were going underground.
