there now on the horizon the failed coalition is called for the president to be peached accusing him of bowing to pressure the prince he has more now on and looks at the track record of brussels when it comes to getting its way. you couldn't win an election create a coalition put together a plan for reforms and a ruling cabinet but turns out you still don't get to govern well that's if you're in the e.u. and you have a euro skeptic agenda if you're president i asked for the ministry an authoritative political figure was not seen as supporting a line. from the essentially this means that the majority of voters who between them opted for the five star movement and northern league two parties with an anti e.u. agenda in march actually don't get to decide the president awaits a red card because he doesn't like one proposed minister and q political crisis

possible snap elections is this really how democracy is supposed to work to find a constitution that government can change. this is a limited sovereignty it's a piece of democracy there is a way that brussels hasn't shied away from warning the new italian government against disobeying the e.u. rule book and it looks like it's got its way no matter what the tally in voters want it and when has that happened before oh yes back in two thousand and five a referendum was held on whether or not to adopt a european constitution here in france as well as in the netherlands voters rejected the idea yet despite that clear unease pushed ahead with branding it as the lisbon treaty three years later which contained many of the changes the constitution had attempted to introduce but this time the majority of the public

didn't have a say because parliament simply ratified it island the only e.u. member which stuck with the referendum rejected this treaty. that was so didn't go down well with bristles but i believe we should not rush to conclusions believe the truth is alive and we should now try to find a solution despite a clear fifty three percent no vote the irish will back at the polls just sixteen months later for what must have felt like they finally got the answer it was looking for. the hero her to jump for joy what about greece the mediterranean country drowning in a sea of its own that its voters decisively rejected the terms of an international bailout in two thousand and fifteen silly business i would like to say that the greek people made a historically grave choice they respond to the existing john look in europe but

democracy work did an unexpected way despite the greeks saying no to a sturdy government a venture did agree to a painful bailout plan but what about the dutch who rejected plans by the e.u. to sign an association agreement with ukraine back in two thousand and sixteen. the accord cannot just be ratified we have to take into account this no vote. well despite their own event brussels went ahead and did it anyway so while many in the may vote against the block's plans it seems that the e.u. prefers to have its own way with god less the elite made a decision in. six to seven years ago that nine hundred fifty four you know this started the whole thing reads the european union and there is nothing you can do against the european union has just gotten it's got nothing to do with democracy

it's not it's not decided but there's no european people european union words or cartel of the governments of the e.u. governments you know they get together they make the solution so i don't think there is even a. democratic spirit beyond you know excuse this is what leaves the leaked it's not we the people of. israel's parliament is the basing a new door to ban the filming of soldiers those behind the bill say that video recording is often used to undermine the army's quite spirit critics of the plans call them an attempt to hide excessive use of force bodies rail defense forces something repeatedly denied by by army chiefs despite footage such as this oh. my. god oh.

oh oh. oh. oh oh oh oh oh these amateur videos i think should like an aspects of the conflict that might otherwise not get brought up in the public debate here in israel and it's very important that we have that debate on the conflict. the bill suggests tough punishment photographing i.d.f. soldiers with quote the intention of undermining spirit gets you five years in prison intention to harm state security would land you a ten year jail sentence yet no explanation is given on how to decide intent experts told us that such punishment punishments to go against freedom of speech this is an absurd piece of populist legislation just meant to limit the constrain the freedom of speech and freedom of protest in israel something that contradicts

the founding principles of this country and by the way this is very hypocritical as well because members of the right whenever settlers are evacuated they also film i.d.f. soldiers this is a time honored tradition in this country in this legislation goes against that value right we do freeing the. soldier. poorly. you can never take them to call you cannot go into figures and i think this is this is. i'm against this law for this legislation because you know when you don't allow people to take pictures of solid jewels it starts we start to you stop before the more free speech you've moved. taking photos off and or whatever this is the end of them across the. international thank you company this afternoon still ahead from this hour the british government has been accused of secretly plotting to keep the country in the new we've got the details just after

the break. going to buy a lot more stuff from the us. champ is going to fact i mean news and weighing into the minutia of trade deals which president has done that i can recall usually they just pay them broad stroke and hope for the bass so he's actually getting into the

details of trade deals. again now in the brics his supporters there claim this is a secret plot to keep the country in the european union it is a move to the government to set aside money for next year's parliamentary elections but officials do insist the money is only there in case of an emergency it's a precautionary measure so that we have the necessary funds to deliver functions a european parliamentary election in the unlikely event that they do go ahead. well european parliamentary elections deepak take place in may twenty nine hundred two

months after britain is supposed to have left the u. that raises questions why the u.k. would need eight hundred thousand pounds for the vote but it's been almost two years since british voters narrowly chose to leave the you've since then negotiations between london and brussels have encountered numerous stumbling blocks including over the irish border while there's still no solution that satisfies all sides the e.u. does say it wants clearer proposals from prime minister to reason. we want to membership partnership with the united kingdom but for that we need realistic proposals from the u.k. and the colonel be a game of hide and seek the downing street spokesperson has said that may is simply trying to get the best possible deal for both sides although most margot parker a member of the european parliament for the u.k. independence party says that the british people have been left for straighted the british people have voted for this referendum have for expectancy to leave we're

frustrated with our government being so slow in their they go see a shit news you know we we find it very annoying very upsetting that they seem to be so slow every time i think they've come to brussels profit perhaps ask for something more and i'm afraid our government appear to be full of capitulation and they appear not not to be putting the british people first think this is a load of nonsense and i think if you were to put this back two years and say that would be at this position people would say you can't be so they need to sort themselves out but i do think the british public are getting very very fed up with this lack of moving forward. now another day and another scare story two at least if you're an england football supporter thinking of coming to russia for the world cup because british tabloids are now claiming that russian hooligans are threatening to kill gay and transgender fans and situ as more. as

the world cup is just around the corner it seems to be scaremongering gold war from some of the tabloid newspapers here in the u.k. essentially spreading the message of don't go or else and discussing all sorts of possible horrific scenarios that could take place and among the one of just many of the latest stories being discussed are legit death threats being made against the l g b t community and this is by far not the first time that something like this is being discussed we've seen headlines talk about things such as russia about to unleash its hooligans how the police are quote thuggish in russia how there is a threat of being whipped by cossacks horsemen during the world cup this summer as well as talk of racism in hopper's potentially breaking into your phones through wife i when you're there as a fan and while all of this whipping up

a frenzy is unraveling we've been hearing officials from both sides really in russia as well as here in the u.k. say that everything is going to be ok among those people was britain's top football police chief who was speaking at a foreign affairs select committee hearing who said basically russia is on top of it and the same message came from the england football association but we've been engaging the last two years in conjunction with the forgot the school so the f.a. and i say to try to see those reassurances from the russian authorities with a great number of meetings with them and every time with them there is a consistent reassurance that the spear a she scored a say at the shows russia to the best of the disability post security team have been impressed with what they see on the ground aggressively. particularly organizations went to the confederations cup last year the traffic. coach for the school do we feel do feel we have the right support we need from from the official chinese i think that sense from the face perspective we would say yes we do feel

well before an off. it has also been releasing certain instructions that have been playing down any worry about what could happen during the world cup they have said that among other things since twenty sixteen five matches involving british teams have taken place in russia and those went without any trouble and of course the fact that british police and russian police have been cooperating ahead of the world cup and british police will in fact also be present on the ground as the world cup unravels and of course this is far from the first time that a big major sporting events take place in russia and this sort of scaremongering is attempted however we've seen in the past that things have gone well and certainly that will be the case this time around as well hopefully. growing numbers of children in the u.k. are officially living in poverty with some teachers reporting that they have to feed and clothe their pupils instead of teaching them the redfish media company has released the first part of its report on the worst hit areas and you can watch the

video in full to their website or you tube and facebook pages. once upon a time the british government pledged to make child poverty history. written in two thousand and eighteen place where millions of pounds of public money has just been spent on a largish royal wedding but while inside this bubble fifty thousand pounds spent on a royal wedding cake outside of it the number of food banks to feed hungry kids is growing britain is also a place where the dream of ending child poverty has been shattered london and birmingham are the areas hardest hit by child poverty here in the child poverty rate is fifty two percent twice the national average mr ali is in

a wheelchair and lives on the tenth floor of this council estate this is his fifteen year old son hussen learning disabilities yet in the absence of proper care workers he's his father's main carer. came to this country. the. father of five martin moved to the u.k. along with his family in search of a better life but they have found themselves living in poverty and in overcrowded accommodation thanks to the stigma attached to living in poverty martin and his wife rachel tell their relatives they are doing fine at their request we have

changed their names and blurred their faces. very difficult for the family but. the most important. is this house. to house in charity shelter more than one million children in england live in bad or overcrowded housing the charity also estimates that one hundred forty families become homeless every day at the same time more than two hundred thousand homes lie empty at a combined worth of forty three billion pounds kids like joseph dream of a better future. it's a little pull. for. the call for full moons chris. because they might be facing on cook worse finks than white house problems

so. i would think it's the right thing to do. to give them to to give them a room to live and not have to have the right to have a good life. or live comfortably. and you can watch that report in full at the redfish website or the social media pages about how the news is looking so fast that i hear and i'll say more and hopefully. when i'll choke seems wrong. just don't call. me old yet to shape out of disdain because to advocate and in again charity equals

betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart when she's to look for common ground. about your sudden passing i've only just learned you were a south and taken your last turn. caught up to you as we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry 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 breath. but then my feeling started to change you talked about war like it was again still some more fun to feel those that didn't like to question our arc 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 differs

i speak to now as there are no other takers. to play and that mainstream media has met its maker. close. to lead. there's. still. plenty. to eat and plan. to get to.

i like scouser. this is the kaiser report hopefully. i just want to follow up a little bit on the last episode we did because here's a headline related to dead unicorns why the end is coming soon for the biggest tech bubble we've ever seen expect to see more dead unicorns unicorns of course in this context are companies startups worth more than a billion dollars there's like one hundred couple hundred of them in the united states but he says about over half of them are actually fifty percent overvalued this is keith wright a professor of villanova school of business so we should be seeing that uniform and saying well you know the change for returns over the past ten years as i just read every man zero migrated into the startup space on the unicorn space but the liquidity never came to the aftermarket never came the cash flow never came so now they all have to go over the cliff of the abyss proving once again the world is

flat of course there are eighteen these are dead unicorns held by silicon valley investors they have deep pockets and of course they could afford to perhaps lose all of this but they're competing with china which has i guess a bigger market but also more capital to work with and you know they're in the race to see who can create more monopolistic sort of positions of course these unicorn holders from silicon valley have donald trump to crush competition like c.t.e. which was crushed and now that brought. china to the trade table they're supposedly negotiating trump keeps on almost getting a trade deal with china and then backing out by a tweet so we don't know but we do know that trade war averted china vows to buy more from the u.s. but truce will take time the consensus follows two days of negotiations between teams led by the chinese vice premier lu he and u.s. treasury secretary steven chu and so china is agreed to buy more u.s.

agricultural goods. and energy products and this is supposed to close that what two hundred a three hundred seventy five billion dollar trade gap with the united states does china refer to these start ups as unicorns or maybe dragons of the unicorn as a global thing i wonder you know it's mythologically i have to ask based on something but you know i'm not sure but yeah ok so china says they're going to buy a lot more stuff from the u.s. and so trump is having an effect i mean who's weighing into the minutia of trade deals which president has done that i can recall usually they just paint a broad stroke and hope for the best so he's actually getting into the details of trade deals with echoes. you do have to recognize that in the west we're not seeing the coverage the media coverage and the actual power that china has on the ground over in asia because i have seen reports that the reason why why did why did

trump to the extraordinary thing of saying we need to come to the table because he lost all these jobs we don't want to destroy seventy five thousand jobs and we don't want to destroy. and they apologized well apparently there were also u.s. goods piling up at the ports over in china and china has a huge buying power and exporting power and all these u.s. companies have massive factories over in china so they have a lot more leverage than we can possibly see here because of course our media doesn't cover it because they have a more important story that their little conspiracy theory that they're focused on nevertheless there are you know that china apparently has a lot of negotiating power in terms of twenty eighteen elections midterm elections coming up in just a few short months as places like iowa and nebraska where they were really squealing about the impact on their agricultural exports some of these places you

know their their number one. destination is china they also live four to five trillion dollars in reserves more than a trillion or so in dollars the dollar still world reserve currency so yeah they've got a lot of operating leverage on the ground but a macro economically speaking the u.s. federal reserve bank bank of new york still has the ability to crush them at a moment's notice if we so choose their basically their equally powered the world's largest debtor the world's largest creditor they are equally powered they're equally powerful and that is a great huge fight that is the fight of the next few decades what is not a great power which is no longer a great power is the united kingdom versus germany fighting the euro european union versus trying to come up with the brakes a deal i have to headlines here this is from bloomberg and they often to this i actually printed another article but they change the headline at all the time but

boris johnson warns may to get on with it and deliver brags that so he's warning that she has to get on with it he wants to become the new prime minister which probably makes more sense of a clown and charge like trees amaze us ineffective you might as well have an ineffective clown because we have a clown here italy has clowns everybody has clowns this is new policy but the u.k. has admitted that they're going to have to pay a huge divorce bill and this breaks it exit if it ever happens this somebody they break that did well is figuring out how to op back in to various deals that the break sort of gave them the right to opt out rights are just that the ad is something i thirty thousand more civil servants in the u.k. and that's the whole point of bragg's it is to increase the size of government under satcher the mandate was to take g.d.p. and address it so that government was a less a percentage of g.d.p.

breaks it just reverses that whole trend it makes the government now a bigger part of g. the pay which is highly anti-growth so i mean i'll read you some of boris johnson's exact quotes he's the foreign minister foreign secretary for the united kingdom theresa may is the prime minister in case you don't know a lot of people may not hear much about the united kingdom but he said that outward free trade in countries what they want to hear from us is that we are getting on with it with confidence embryo in zap and dynamite. so over that's not a clown does he know these that's equivalent is going. squirting water so i like your idea that the u.k. needs a clown station to compete with a berlusconi's and then only the trump clownish behavior in america and other global clowns i mean to compete in this global economy you need a clown force johnson's caliber he's a world class clown well if you don't have the authority in the power to be a state's person then you might as well be

a clown because you've got to compete for global attention right so johnson's comments however are his strongest since teresa mayes team agreed last week on a controversial compromise that could keep the u.k. tied to e.u. trade rules for years after the divorce the proposal got a frosty reception from brussels and prompted jacob response to commands enough conservative lawmakers to engineer a leadership challenge to say he was losing faith and tree some may but the united kingdom is part of the body of the european economy as a seventy three trillion dollar trading block you know the whole brags it is like your liver deciding to separate from your body and to say we're no longer part of the body were the independent liver and by the way everything that comes in and out of the liver we now have to introduce another organ called the deliberate exit blipper attacks and then oh wait a minute that doesn't make any sense so we have to reverse all that there's no way to separate the u.k.

from here it cannot be done it will not be done if it does it's in name only they may have changed. color of their passport but you cannot you cannot separate the two boris johnson in their delusional when we were just in the york there were two guys walking behind me downtown you know the financial district and i heard them one guy complaining that his office was moving to frankfurt because their office in london was closing down because of this break set thing so i'm still look at another headline here about the u.k. economy it is it has been hit definitely by this whole breaks during two men who knows what's happening whether or not breaks it happens i think people will still be talking about pricks in twenty thirty years' time when it won't have actually happen nevertheless landlords left with four shards skyscrapers worth of empty space in the high street bloodbath this big companies like jamie's italian all of these chains. they have a whole bunch of them listed here but the fact is that in figures compiled for the

evening standard colliers international forecasts that the blood bath and the retail and restaurants sectors will leave at least six point two million square feet in the u.k. vacant this year of that six hundred thirty thousand square feet isn't london of the property agent examined statistics from the local data company and goad portal it looked at stores which have closed either because firms have collapsed or restructured using a company voluntary arrangement a move which allows businesses to quit stores or seek rent cuts so they using the c.v.s. as they're called so what is it called company voluntary agreement and they're able to get out of all these leases and landlords are left holding the bill on these overpriced properties and in a shrinking economy and with huge business rates on these small companies that the u.k. government is no longer going to be able to collect it all. this idea being independent

it go it defies one hundred years of integration. and to europe that it's absurd i understand that everyone likes to be independent but it's never ever ever going to happen in any meaningful sense. of the kingdom it's just ever going to happen of course these new rules came out in the e.u. regarding privacy for example and all these tech companies had to change everything and i just noticed that over the weekend because we've lived in the united kingdom for so long i've had dozens and dozens and dozens of emails from all these british companies saying due to new european privacy directives here's our new policy on privacy so it's like there are all these just online about people throwing their computers out the window because of this hassle but nevertheless they're having to abide by these european regulations anyway in order to stay part of that you're the customs union better member of the new passports of the new color as a manufacturer.
