in course all all but for barcelona ball but fall for crimea. or whatever. and either the principle is good or the principle is bad has to be apply equally and that is not being done. and nothing done some is not so is not i can quit place is not a good country and. true because it is the minister they live bunch of among us well above the stones. i believe this but at the message this is. just the culture. of the cultish less sure of the secular serious. holiness just little unbiased found in the muslim of themselves to be the middle. mostly helpless fossil. play almost anything for the numbers and the

best cannot take on our better johnson i'm based on i'm not sure that's right i never can i do not believe that i would miss rice from that make matter how on amanita. from michelle cannot. confront a man i can know he was someone i was feeling now with to fuck him on a. good sister to my son enough hours because she is able to sleep i don't want to go to the cities and then i cannot boyce's in this or do whatever the street the. cinema i gather you have a lot of risk to see others who are supposed. to . welcome back the night have been two women prime ministers in the united kingdom

the only one madame speaker in the new eight hundred year history of the west was the bottom of. however the modern scottish parliament has been much better at breaking through the political glass ceiling and i admit i spoke to a presiding officer of the scottish parliament from two thousand and eleven to two thousand and sixteen. the woman responsible for keeping me in order was first minister explain first the gender was not the only barrier that she had to overcome pressure maek your five years as presiding officer of the the scottish parliament between two thousand and eleven and two thousand and sixteen you are the first woman in the mirror of the scottish mother members presiding officer movies. as one of her doing indeed notable worse and it was the first person in the chair because she was the the mother of the pub most experienced member way back even though all this well i was trying to really make the watch and i choose my words carefully but as presiding officer you were the first woman chair. did you feel that was ever the

shooter or had the scottish parliament develop such a way that really was of no matter what people say to me it must be a huge thrill for you to be the first woman president of this court pub and of course it was for i used to see it. and response to that yes i was also the first place i. did not go to a private school. i was the first place i did not start who had a working class background i did not go to university saw lots of things to be proud of so what i've been force women i'm certainly. of been able to represent a great proportion of people school of course the scottish parliament has been blessed with some formidable woman country not just with multiple bold only using rebel force was the most liberal sturgeon the leader of the the opposition ruth

davidson in my time the alamo goldie was the leader of the conservative and a number of key labor politicians as well. the nature of the parliament the hours of the power and the working practices to make it to be able to marry other parliaments and well some of which we would mention but other powers a pretty friendly to people with childcare responsibilities i think because it became a comment in one thousand nine. we had have by anyone had ever been awake that there was a theory. by the parties themselves to me because women liked it that was easier because there was no incumbents to get rid off so we went in the mill income but there is no male incumbents to get rid of because i find that we want men other than the siesta just refused to move so it was a blond new your perch unity it's very difficult for

a woman who has to go to see westminster for example hundreds of miles away you can go ridiculous. you know hours you know they could be born in the time and i am we've always had one point five cork get of withheld and i think that really really important and i think the importance of women been. can be seen and the kinds of legislation whether or not. domestic violence and the why there was a much emphasis on issues to do with women to deal with family to do be vulnerable people than anything we really seen in westminster you're very seriously ill when you are presiding officer and yet continue to impost with hope people will think be aware of just as soon as you can this was you one of two first will publish the to be told by you but not nearly so close to how you confronted that

illness and turman that you could still continue in post and be effect was preserved so that's pretty appalling. and the worst are always before i was diagnosed with cancer so for a period from about it all to june before a diagnosis i was very ill and they in june when i was diagnosed by all cancer and had to you have an operation practically two days afterwards and you of course i phoned up. to see and of course a longstanding friendship to a you know how will i wars so i had the operation in june i was all for about three weeks luckily we went in to lease a state for the summer. i was having chemotherapy and without him back at the beginning of the end of august second of september which he was of this is two

thousand and thirteen when i came back and we still haven't chemotherapy and the only people who knew at that stage where my private staff in the office because they were looking after me my family and very few others but you know it was important that i didn't tell anybody just i was. because it comes to the fight the it can't you witness and which are a key part known i was in the chair would have done two things it would of help. from being as rough boisterous as the should be or second a little bit take advantage of up and i just really really important to keep love pointed and the only way i could do that was not telling anybody this also of course the fear that i was not going to get better and that you know i wanted to handle this and my own we would see the. next nobody realized

the seriousness of you you know most of the toll was a great tribute to the louie you handled thank you. for five years and. the chill scottish parliament no retired presiding officer what advice would you give me not your successor because of the advice that but the who's aspires to to be in the chair the school is part of the future what would you say the key thing is to be a successful presiding officer well i think i was really lucky because you pointed me in one thousand nine to be the data doesn't stanage are normally beautiful of the parliament we're all the businesses but. then i was very fortunate the minister had business manager of a stomachache who was an operator and i understood so much more from him then you know than i could ever imagine he was he was brilliant i knew standing

orders back to front. so when i did the comm that was late and officer i knew the standing order so well if you know any of the cards or the risk of me advice you had to know that i was going to challenge the most necessary in first place with various as no rules nor the rules are to enforce absolutely should not a referee should know the rules better than anybody else because once you know that you have got the comfort of knowing you can fall back into i hate myself for seeing the shy and because my kids will be busy show seeing what i asked what else i think you know is the craziest thing i've done in my life to one more point of of interest not of course look quite cause that big percentage of those go to parliament but for the slot the interview you get the alex salmon quick for me on the show thank you i have a i have given away so many of them in the past and you know i think this is one of

the few that you will receive thank you very much indeed for smiling thank you so much it. leon brown came to prominence as the wife of manchester united football or. she established to do in t.v. created in the hugely popular real housewives of cheshire before not making a further transition into an activist against economic and physical oppression of women by her support for the charity one woman at a time leon joins me night welcome thank you and happy international women's day to you again. thank you very much for joining us here really keen to talk to you about your journey from what i suppose you were termed during the time when where it was playing for manchester united as the wife of ways to now being the amazing charity activist you are working internationally and of course in the middle of finding some time for three lovely young reducing the growth i'd also working in the

reality t.v. sure the real housewives of cheshire tells the bit about your journey i've always been charity were always fundraisers have a patron of another charity once upon a smile and just recently one called lily trust they're both like bereavement charities but one woman at a time it was a lady called jean under sen she's the founder and later that i've known for about seven years and she did my head in a birthing with my youngest child and we reconnected about eighteen months ago and she lived in africa she's next midwife she told me about her work and and something just really resonated within me that i wanted to help in africa it's about the. early marriage so we basically sponsor girls to get an education and any cost that they can do just to get their own independence and their own money so they don't have to be sold they don't have to marry also with the female genital mutilation i just think it's so important to be able to empower the girls and explain what's

going to happen so they they can have their own voice and stand up and say no obviously there are lots of charities that they're working with women and and children unicef save the children care for example what sets a charity when. woman at a time apart for you well the three main areas that where looking at is of assistance from the girls for education. the hospital the maternity the babies i mean in this hospital in this village there's nobody water in the hospital and it's just crazy what how they be surviving there and you think how clean like the hospitals are here and you just have to deal with what they have got so the maternity side of it with the hope to train midwifes to be able to have. to start law staff that speak their own language in that area as well that's really important and also we managed to take over some washable sanitary towels when we went over that this time and these i mean some of the girls they have to miss

school if they're on the menstrual cycle because and even some newspaper because they don't have any facilities. and these towels just the so good and they last over twelve months on this so easy to use so we did a demonstration with the girls and showed them how to use them and we're hoping to find out the materials that that they use and be able to then make their own does any of that take an emotional tool on you because not only are there women who may be made in a long line of succession line of of women who've been. a particular gentleman but also very young young brides. the ages of our children i suppose sometimes do you find that quite difficult to deal with missy that first hand it's horrendous i mean these girls in africa they are like thirteen thirteen fourteen when they're told they're becoming a woman and it's like a rite of passage ceremony and they have

a big party and then that's i mean they don't even know what's going to happen to them one girl called salome. in the refuge told her story of she overheard a parent's talking about and there was. i know man in the room and she was led to believe that this is going to be the man she's going to marry and she'd escaped to the middle of the night lived out in the bush for a few months and got found and now we're helping and she's now to have some schooling and now she's doing further education so we got to meet her and it's just it just makes my heart sing to be able to meet the girls and be on the ground and see what what's being done speaking of international women's day i mean this country we've come so far with one hundred years and with the votes in and everything and just to go there and say that these women have no rights of course just this weekend we must mention you had your first ball the empowerment bowl yes in manchester to raise money for is this for the for the one on one time charlie how did that go i did all the organizing and like literally nearly everybody i knew

in the room so it was there it was daunting but it was just overwhelming the donations the generosity of everyone i mean raised in the region of about thirty thousand pound so i'm so over the moon that i can just take you on to india obviously increasingly and i hope this is the case that way is being new and it's your husband know there's existed if you're trying to be he's always you playing football in india how is that working for you that you're here sometimes in africa sometimes in india that's a family balance trying to keep everything together we just make it work as a family and if fact is just probably made us stronger as a couple having to deal with live in a pot and makes the time together all the more precious and he says he managed to find charity work to do in india to make that work so with india it's more about the abuse the domestic abuse sexual abuse and obviously connected with the refugee over that because of what is korea football korea now in india with as i am so.

overwhelmed at how we used to come forward what i'm doing and he got involved with the refuge in india. and he took a couple of teammates over that to me and they have now asked him to be passed over to the save the children campaign over that part to me and it's a wonderful story and a good luck with all of the excellent what i know you're going to do and those that picking up well i know what i feel lovely young ladies to thank so much thank you. well you decide is fixed on mighty things the fate of bias in the fall of kings well quite so state must each produce his plan and even children list that i. amid this mighty fuss just let me mention the rights of women still met it some attention so happy international women's day i'm from the me and all the show it's goodbye for now.

under-performing the stock market oh my god blackstone one arbitrage opportunity you have brought him up stairs self i suggest you short your styles of money into you eviscerate your own corporate balance sheet and then blow your brains out on live t.v. they gave us all a big kind of fund experience for the financial predatory class.

the new global economic war resume funding in the realm of education the right to education has been supplanted by the right to access education it's high education is becoming just another product that can be foolish and sold but it's not just about education anymore it's also about running a business where you could no mobiles at bruges could these songs not for the little they could image. which is the place of students in this business model before college i was born now i'm an extremely more higher education the new global economic wall. but you go shoot when you can you know you know it's you know melissa i noted where you and one million people died and i.

killed people maybe even vaguely. now no one's income tooling everybody's rounded up and that's. it.

president trump signs an order imposing tariffs on steel and aluminum imports into the u.s. despite warnings of a global trade war. several fatalities are confirmed after terrorist shells civilians trying to escape the syrian rebel on flavor of eastern kuta. and british police say a former russian spy and his daughter were poisoned with a nerve agent but had no secretary amber rod warns against speculation while the investigation is ongoing. if we are to be rigorous in this investigation we must avoid speculation and allow the police to carry on that investigation.

thank you for watching the news headlines here it out here international broadcasting live from moscow i'm kate partridge u.s. president donald trump has signed an order imposing tariffs on steel and aluminum imported into america but in a concession to the country's neighbors the tax will not apply to canada or mexico today i'm defending america's national security. by placing tariffs on foreign imports of steel and aluminum the american steel momentum industry has been ravaged by aggressive foreign trade practices. it's really an assault on our country despite domestic and international backlash trump has signed a proclamation imposing twenty five percent tariffs on steel imports and ten percent tariffs on minium imports encouraging companies to buy american well the

president argues that protecting these industries will guarantee economic and national security however trump has offered relief to some u.s. allies the tariffs will not apply to imports from canada and mexico at least temporarily until a nafta or the north american free trade agreement is negotiated even though trump has received some domestic applause from unions in particular that wasn't the case internationally when he first announced these new tariffs on twitter the world was furious. which you should you're. choosing a trade war is surely the room prescription for china will certainly make an appropriate and necessary response we will defend our interests if we need to come . i'm convinced that

increased terrorists will hurt us all in the long run trade will stop bad and easy . well trump has stated in the past that he sees nothing wrong with trade wars and now other allies are threatening tariffs on u.s. imports of peanuts juice alcohol etc but trump's move has been met with domestic backlash as well from both democrats and republicans who believe that protectionism harms national security now more than a hundred house republican members signed a letter on wednesday expressing deep concern about the plan suggesting to change the course of action to quote avoid untended negative consequences to the u.s. . anomie and its workers but considering that canada and mexico have been exempt one can't help but wonder if these tariffs are intended to china trump has listed trying as a threat to national security and he's repeatedly expressed the need to counter

china so we can't be too sure but it'll definitely be interesting to see how china the e.u. and other u.s. allies react while unveiling his new tariffs president trump invited metal industry workers for a group photo in the oval office but he appeared to have forgotten an important detail would you like to take a picture in the oval office i assume you've all been many times into the oval office come on let's go and do that let's go on to say yes i'm going to do we'll go into the oval office we're going to sign this we're going to the oval office we have a picture ok ok thank you. for treasury secretary steve many chin there was reminding the president that he hadn't yet signed the order plan which has received broad support from still and medium firms in the us. economist jeffrey tucker says the new terrorist could force key u.s.

allies to seek new trade partners. so it seems as if every european nation is washing their hands of the u.s. we're no longer trustworthy trade partners in light of this and so europe is seeking other allies china pandered to australia anywhere in the world the us and this is been growing for some months i say is becoming isolated and there are good and the global economy and let's not make any mistake about this in the twenty first century there's no such thing as as as nation when it comes to economic affairs anymore we all must cooperate together and the us is excluding itself and giving up its credibility trump it's going here it's contrary to the national interest and contrary to the good of the global economy. militants have shelled a refugee cola boy trying to leave the syrian rebel enclave east and go to the

russian defense ministry has confirmed that several civilians were killed in the assault what i guess the reports. according to the russian military the three hundred families had allegedly gathered together to leave eastern ghouta crossing the frontlines is always dangerous so it's best done when there's a safe window with the agreement of both belligerence the syrian government was waiting for them the rebels this he knew what was going on and shelled them they reportedly shelled the procession of civilians i mean a kilometer before they were out of east ghouta and then to top it all off they shelled the relatives and journalists waiting on the syrian side at the end of the corridor nothing's changed they aren't allowing civilians to leave just like the islam islam is brother and did in aleppo.

that started it. then of us are here it wouldn't have a. vision you got to. look at. what they said about you but any use for that ministry in some sour city kind of thing. yet here in washington tell it you don't mention that they think it's joke like russia has called for these jokes like humanitarian corridor wars russia needs to just do what the united nations had agreed to and voted on and that is a countrywide ceasefire freeing civilians would mean less human shields it would be a p.r. blue people don't want to stay with the rebels they'll talk say all sorts of horrible things about life and the jihad ists they'll challenge the narrative why let them leave too many problems take also rebel shelling of damascus blind aimless

shells peppered damascus daily for years now so many dead and still die. sighing still to die yet you won't see any hysteria about that in fact you won't hear much at all they won't admit that rebels are keeping people hostage because that justifies assad's operation as do those that died in rebel shelling so why mention it it ruins the narrative it's so much simpler when it's all black and white but most of the united states press is clearly on the side of the rebels they believe that assad is an evil person who is running an evil regime and they'd like to see it fall and therefore stories about the suffering of syrians in damascus because that rebel apartment don't make much impression and occasionally they get through the stories but they are they're not. they're not the overriding story which is

that this is a brutal regime and refuses to make compromise and sleeting to a very lopsided character. but also on thursday dozens of aid trucks were temporarily prevented from entering eastern into fighting on the ground on monday shellfire had forced another convoy to turn around and leave the on clay the situation in the area remains. if.

there. was. a former russian spy and his daughter were poisoned with a nerve agent according to police in the u.k. so gay and you are screwed paul are in a critical condition after being found unconscious in the city of seoul spree on sunday the country's top counterterrorism officer mark raju says the pair were targeted deliberately. misused being treated as a major incidents involving attempted murder mystery of a nerve agents i will not be providing credit for most of the state about the exception of things that has been identified.
