9:30 am
and if. i'm are allowed to. so it can do nothing but. something i have a very bad depression so i've been to many times and some medicine from them. doesn't work. i'm still struggling i ask him about what he wants to do if and after all this he wants to work he'd read economics at university and capital he wouldn't mind resurrecting his professional boxing career either but his talk is tentative working and living here sounds like a dream and one that any day now could come crashing down with the arrival of a final deportation letter. for it so in just about an hour or so vladimir putin will be sworn in as russian president he won the election back in march so it was done off as now in the heart of moscow in the heart of the kremlin
9:31 am
actually where the last preparations are being made for the ground in or gratian ceremony can you talk us through it you go to what are what are your expectations for the ceremony today well rory the main expectation is basically this ceremony will be unlike any other before that the first thing quite unique about this event is the sheer amount of guests the sheer number of people who were invited here to the kremlin palace we're being told some six thousand people have been invited and the crowd is really diverse there are people from all realms of social life really politicians diplomats filmmakers and activists and as you can clearly see behind me all of them have already begun gathering behind me along the red carpet which of lattimer putin will walk towards his inauguration ceremony now secondly don't let yourself be thrown off by. by the luxury of the alls here this is pretty much where
9:32 am
the qur'an das the grandest most fear of this event too will be contained because latimer proved himself will take a more humble a more modest approach to his inauguration ceremony house so well normally his inauguration would imply that more school city center will be cordoned all for traffic so that is cortege would be so that he's vehicles will be allowed to pass freely will nothing like that will happen this time he will just walk down from his office to these to these halls for the ceremony just just to go into further details as to what to expect in about an hour's time i invite you to have a look at a preview of that a short. this is latimer putin's stairway to presidency so to speak he will climb these fifty eight steps before he gets to the halls of the palace also the site of
9:33 am
the inauguration ceremony. this is the will of military glory it's named after a single george and that is first hold lattimer putin is said to cost on his path to no curation it is also the biggest hole in the palace with its length be more than sixty metres. the next whole the whole the whole of the scene from xander being in it right now it is difficult to imagine that for the larger part of the twentieth century none of this even existed after it had been demolished by soviet leaders only twenty years ago this was brought back to its former glory.
9:34 am
it's not all the glitters is gold they say well it couldn't be more wrong for this place i mean look at this gilded villas chandelier even this this is the hole where the inauguration ceremony will be taking place latimer will be standing in the far end of the hole once again in his life the same old thirty three words good will officially start his next tenure as the presidents of russia emerged on up from the kremlin. so the ceremony will start in less than one hour's time and we'll be following it right from the heart of the kremlin palace. if you can for our special inauguration coverage.
9:35 am
and your program continues in just a moment. by two things by his emotion and he has said. in that long he places a very long lead he says so to speak of the. long distance runner in politics and that's the way they underestimate him. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth he longs to the rich eight point six
9:36 am
percent market saw thirty percent i just want to hear some with four hundred to five hundred trade per circuit first second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building two point one billion dollars a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only number you need to remember is one one does not show you can afford to miss the one only. it is good to have you with us today and i knew will it ten kilometer race right through the french capital won't be held this year that's juta the high number of homeless people of many of the migrants camped out along the route and it's a problem many had hoped would have eased over the last year the correspondence shot a dupe and ski reports. president machen had pledged that by the beginning of two
9:37 am
thousand and eighteen no one would be sleeping rough on the streets of france let alone her and yet not only did he fail to deliver on the promise but it's getting worse much worse it's believed that up to one thousand eight hundred migrants have set up camp along the canal in paris and fears that that could explode to around two and a half thousand in the next few weeks has caused the organizers of the great race to graham paris to cancel the annual event. the ten kilometer race between paris and song to me was to take place in just over
9:38 am
a week's time but this is part of where the run is supposed to come through and as you can see it would be virtually impossible for them to navigate this section of the racecourse these makeshift camps are growing day by day the route is impossible it is disturbing to have to run the race in the middle of a refugee camp at last year's race around six and a half thousand people took part it was also adopted as part of paris's bid to host the twenty twenty four olympics embodying a couple of the games key objectives solidarity and ecology this cancellation so close to race day has disappointed many you know it's kind of unfair or because of improvising for one time and then you just cancel the last minute just. like they should have reworded it down that's what i think so it's two separate problems you just do your race if your do your race and the rider problem is something else i think they should fix that or help them or. you know when you walk in the street
9:39 am
you can see that all the people live on the sidewalks despite pledges to help migrants off the streets the greater paris region currently only has room to shell to seven hundred and fifty individuals far fewer than the numbers already here a number said to be growing in the hundreds each week organizers say they didn't want the camps to be cleared just so that the race could go ahead reluctant to be seen as a tool for social exclusion but safety concerns meant that they couldn't we reach either. participants have been offered refunds or a place in next year's event assuming of course there is one. ski r.t. paris. the fashion world is embroiled in another racism scandal that's after the cover of vogue italy sparked widespread criticism that so show the photo
9:40 am
that sparked the controversy it features a supermodel gigi how did you some say is unrecognizable here on social media people pointed out that her deeds skin hair and face all feature facial features were photo shopped in order to appear darker than they really are but others say the photo was a piece of art and there's nothing racist about it instead of just hiring someone of a different culture they transform a white girl change her skin and even do her makeup to make her look more ethnic change hair color etc oh ok this is normal why couldn't you use a black model instead of saying black face honestly so ignorant and disgusting disappointed in the modeling industry these days there is literally nothing in black face about this people can't even look tan anymore without others making it something it's not you're making a response out of everything even when it's not she doesn't look black here she looks brunette i think the intention was to show a power of transformation and he wanted to do it on a red a very famous model known as blonde it is art is magnificent some people just don't
9:41 am
deserve. g.g. how did in vogue italy have both apologized saying the photo wasn't meant to offend anyone and the magazine explained that it was trying to create a beach look with a stylized bronzing effect now a political commentator and radio host steve malzberg believes there's nothing wrong with the photo and that the scandal is all a fuss over nothing. i hear you have a beautiful blue eyed blonde model one of the top models in the world and they put some bronze on her and they photoshop the picture and now she looks i mean you could say she looks black or african-american she looks bronze to me but this is a whole big issue now where people take offense and they call it cultural appropriation in other words you're stealing their culture so it's really at a hand and we have to get over this in our society or it's going to do
9:42 am
a very very much harm so i see nothing wrong with the shoot i think people are too sensitive and i think it's getting out of hand political correctness is getting out of hand. it's been revealed that the u.s. national security agency collected over five hundred million phone records of americans last year so if with triple the number twenty sixty and that is despite a new law limiting the spy agency's powers the u.s. freedom act bans the bulk collection of phone records on the internet method data whilst also limiting government data collection to what is quote reasonably practicable it does however permit the gathering of phone and text logs when a link to terrorism is proven and the recent increase in records collected comes in contrast to the concerns expressed last year by president donald trump. i think that is a very big surveillance of our citizens i think it's a very big topic and it's
9:43 am
a topic that should be number one and we should find out what the hell is going on in its mission statement of the n.s.a. upholds a commitment to protecting the privacy rights of american citizens but also highlights the need for accountability when pursuing intelligence gathering but the n.s.a.'s recent actions have raised concern among various privacy advocates and done believes that the spy agency has done little to scale back its spying operations even after being exposed by various whistleblowers. what was revealed by edward snowden the mass surveillance that he uncovered and exposed. my guess is it never stopped happening and that it's continuing to today and i you know most americans who are self-aware should assume that they're being monitored most of the time the u.s. government said or about national security rarely have anything to do with the security of you know ordinary citizens like myself and everything to do with the
9:44 am
security of corporations to make a lot of profit. i think you know it begs the question as to whether we're being monitored in order to stifle political dissent and i think. that is what i believe this is about and i think it's of of great concern in a country that claims to be a democracy and claims to be free. this is all t. international hope you can stick around for a while longer you know gratian ceremony fell flat i'm a poet in his next term as the russian president starts in less than one.
9:45 am
when lawmakers manufacture consensus instead of public wealth. when the ruling classes project themselves. with the famous merry go round lifts only the one percent told. us
9:46 am
to ignore middle of the room sick. to lose any real news from the world. about your sudden passing have only just learnt. south and taken your last two bang turn. out. to you as we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry but only i could so i write these last words in hopes to put to rest these things that i never got off my chest. i remember when we first met my life turned on each fact. but then my feelings started to change you talked about war like it was again still some are fond of you those that didn't like to question our ark and i secretly promised to never be like it said one does not leave a funeral the same as one enters the mind gets consumed with death this one's life
9:47 am
differs i speak to you now because there are no other takers. to claim that mainstream media has met its maker. and. i think. that in the middle of the sixties there were thirteen million students enrolled in higher education in two thousand and fifteen there were two hundred million in less than fifteen years there are expected to be four hundred million to overachieve. who is shall not heard you hold life easier to control your lefty during a cold war and. while the demand keeps growing university tuition fees skyrocket and the world over the cost of education is high increasingly the term for
9:48 am
colorado is more. mystery i don't understand how can a school be a scam. in the name of so-called economic pragmatism and as a result of international competition university is a turning into a huge money making machine it's. none of my family members went to university i think i wanted to be i wanted to be got one. from shanghai to new york paris to berlin countries around the world reflect trying different moves each remodelling its system in its own way but at what price and who profits from it. at the starting point of our story which begins at the end of the ninety's. at that
9:49 am
time you had this financial izing itself all the while expanding many intellectuals european university presidents and expert groups engage in a vast reflection on how to build a more complete more ambitious europe. how to strengthen its intellectual scientific and technological influence. what is the secret of the united states and its economic power. the answer lies in higher education and research. a realm that has become undeniably strategic. at the end of the twentieth century american universities prevail and rule europe is afraid afraid of finding itself on the sidelines it needs
9:50 am
a strategy and so european gauges in a series of reforms to make its higher education more competitive so it can serve europe's economy its productivity its job market and its liberal project england will quickly set the tone before anyone else and it gets straight to the point. after the second world war we had a system where local education authorities around. country were responsible for providing a grant to students and giving tuition covering tuitions fees. and that was at a time when roughly three percent of eighteen year olds went to university around twenty thousand a year. all science students will have their first to be required to attend lectures on physics chemistry mathematics and biology it will also be possible for science students to major in philosophy. knowledge is not bullshit look at what
9:51 am
a huge mitt romney won and probably also all pleased all. in the one nine hundred eighty s. and one nine hundred ninety s. there was a funding crisis amongst universities lots of vice chancellors complaining that they didn't have enough money to cover the amount of students are now coming through the system so the government commissioned a report and this was called the dealing with forbes and that came up with a number of recommendations almost one hundred recommendations roughly half for the government about how it could. maintain sustain and improve higher education in the u.k. and one of the most controversial parts of that report was the introduction of. i in one thousand nine hundred seventy the british left led by its young charismatic candidate tony blair wins the elections after eighteen long years of conservative rule. at the age of forty three the head of the labor party takes
9:52 am
charge of the country with a program whose foundation is to apply private sector management models to public services so as to make them more efficient more productive. higher education will be no exception. right. we need to widen access to universities get more money into universities and the best and fairest way to do it is a balance between the state and the graduate situation face became reality and nine hundred ninety eight and it was a key landmark in the history of higher education in the u.k. because at that moment the principle of free education free higher education in the u.k. finished. for this historic reform tony blair introduces the yearly one thousand pound tuition fee a smooth way to start by. prompted by his second term election tony blair
9:53 am
authorizes universities to charge tuition fees up to three thousand three hundred pounds. tony blair head of britain's labor party successfully passed a reform that the conservatives would never have dared bring forward. in two thousand and ten the labor party rallies the opposition the coalition made of liberal democrats conservatives led by david cameron take charge of the country very rapidly the debate of a jewish visa rises on the political scene again this time the government intends to authorize tuition fees up to nine thousand pounds all the while reducing the portion of public funding and it catered to universities this new reform violently divides both members of parliament and public opinion that have been very difficult choices to make we have opted for a such a policy is that provides a strong base for university funding which makes a major contribution to reducing the deficit and introducing
9:54 am
a significantly more progressive system of graduate paper and stuff we inherited and i'm proud to put forward that magic so this. there are. ways to know that. there is nothing a bank that chinee benefit to the lowest income graduates that justifies doubling or tripling the debt of the vast majority of brides isn't it credible that the party opposite who actually introduced the principle of graduates paying and fainted for two jewish and fee increases is able to drum up quite so much fake anger on the issues out there. and in young person ask any young person in any poor communities in our country what is your prospect what is your what do you want to do many woodside. i want to study i want to qualify i want to go to university i want to achieve something in life. hell that.
9:55 am
unless they are very cool they can have to borrow money to survive to get through university they simply will not do it this decision matters so much to so many people. i'd say to the house if you don't believe in it vote against. it for the right three hundred twenty three you know most of the last three hundred true god. was. i was when it was really from three thousand that it became one thousand pounds i was up to the university if they wanted to introduce nine thousand pounds
9:56 am
a maximum face or anything between six thousand and nine thousand and unsurprisingly most university decided to set nine thousand pounds most students have now half a million students going through every year most of those will be paying a minimum nine thousand pounds a year and that's stands today. over the course of fifteen years british politicians are ruling class that had enjoyed free access to education inflicted a paying system on the new generation. british students along with a european fellows now have to deal with these new rulings. that's the way it is. they're young they long for a solid future that dusty for knowledge and dream of climbing the social ladder all that has a price tag and they'd better get used to it. and that i grew up in a working class family in the south of poland a young woman could have enrolled in
9:57 am
a university in cracow in copenhagen or even amsterdam. it would have been free in england and it was granted a student loan to pay for her nine thousand pounds tuition fees. i knew i was going to go abroad to study and i think well for a little while i thought it was going to be scotland but then. i think i decided it was england you know like way back and it just stuck with me and i and i came here and it was it was scary it was so scary because i was away from home i was here alone i didn't have anywhere to turn to and look at me now i study chinese of all the crises that i could have chosen i can't wait for you know what the future holds and what i'm going to do i have so many ideas but we'll see.
9:58 am
i talked to my grandfather once and we're talking about everything else and then kind of started talking about university and how much money that costs and everything and i had many thoughts about ok maybe maybe i'll quit maybe i'll you know it's too much maybe it's not worth it and then i realized well how my going to pay it back but that's one of the reasons why i stayed and other reason bigger even is that i like what i do i think i'm not quite sure where that came from my need to go to university i think is because. none none of my family members went to university i think i wanted to be i wanted to be that one first person who did that and my mom my mom really wanted me to do that as well she did encourage me strongly i don't know what i would do with her if i fail i would i would feel like i failed
9:59 am
her and i never want to do that ever. because being here and doing what i do and being university is my way of paying her back for probably that she's to me i think that. yeah i'm good it's my way of paying back for everything. and. will the european students be forced one day to get into debt. should education become a syllable good. must didn't speak um self-made finance he has to earn an education . northern european countries things a bit differently. for
