on what's going on with these values of you know what and also not honoring and thought he talks about not on winning immigrants he said you know they'll you know use them as servants and use them to do the mopping up but they don't actually all of them and it's an logan's right you know you do see that but then also he's also . venal as well. because we know that meritocracy is something that say rupert murdoch does support you know doesn't like the royal family right i mean over here i don't know what parallels you see here in britain because it's the brics that is who say the establishment they control the media and the shadowy elites they're stopping the will of the people who voted for brics you know with the brakes it is just playing on the idea of little england the gist of it it's so futile it's so obviously futile it's about. you know keeping that well in place you know jake would be smog michael gove johnson even david davis it was a sort of working class story but it's it's those values in which question are to
8:01 pm
me this kind of inverted conduct yeah all of that how is i mean you signed first scotland for europe and the campaign what is your view now as running backs it has a saying it's project fear people are actually talking about food supplies needing to be stalked and so on and it's stockpiled it's hysteria you know and it's trying to frighten you know that they did it before they did it in the you know about them but about the pound and they will always do it it's well these are the breaks it is saying. that the remain as are threatening all of this i don't think so. and do you think that is deafening to happen rex and i i think i think we'll probably come to some norwegian position i think that's what's going to happen. i think that's where we will go well had i known about the customs union but i feel
8:02 pm
that it's too complicated and there realizes that and she's put nobody had thought it through i mean and that's that's that's the thing annoys me more than any given the logans of this world because there are all agog oh yeah whatever they would explore it if they would exploit one side of their own they're not on anybody's side they're exploited for stupidity you know that's what they do they they look at it in terms of it's stupidity and that's what that's how logan roy runs his empire because he looks through something is as stupid i haven't seen the end of it so i don't know whether there are any forces there to break up the power of families like this well i think there are and i think that's what we see we see all the threats and that sweet see it throughout and. logan's one belief is in the family it's something that you go you know on a hiding to nothing in their power but he's absolutely i mean i said this to jesse
8:03 pm
actually we were working on the show i says when i was in the there's a whole scene where we do family intervention when we have a psychotherapist who comes in to us who is on its and it's and it's because the family is getting such bad press and logan agrees to it because it's a it's a press thing but. in the middle of it he does talk about his family. but he does say he loves his family and i said to jesse i said no jesse tell me is that true and he said absolutely true you know and so not way you know blood is very much thicker than water in a meth you know but it's it's the family dynasty is what trump does you know it's what god says what murdoch guards us what those families do they they do come together they do congeal in some kind of way. because they're not realize what their power base is you know otherwise it becomes too diminished i mean even though he's the individualists think he knows that there are people who have to do the job in order to make the unit work well episode two is going out in britain on thursday
8:04 pm
brian cox thank you thank you after the break could there be a link between bank bailout cause austerity and the death rates for those in english police custody we speak of all the met police chief inspector and great uncle of russian charles who died at the hands of police last summer well this is more coming up but they're going underground. max geysers financial survival guide liquid assets those that you can convert into cash quite easily. to keep in mind as a tremendous pleasure. for.
8:05 pm
church secret indeed catholic priests accused of sexually abusing children can get away with it quite literally i like to call this the geographics solution so what the bishop needs to do then he finds out that the priest. as a perpetrator is simply move him to a different spot where the previous standard is not known highest ranks of the catholic church conceal the accused priests from the police and justice. welcome back deaths in police custody of reach their highest in a decade according to britain's independent office for police conduct twenty three people died during or after police custody in twenty seventeen alone one of the
8:06 pm
names not on that list is twenty year old londoner russian charles earlier this year following an investigation by the i o. p. c. the crown prosecution service ruled his death was an accident no charges will that we brought against the officer that restrained him someone who has disputed the findings of the official inquest an investigation is rushing charges great uncle rod charles he is a former metropolitan police chief inspector with thirty years experience is designed trained and applied specialist restraint tactics he maintains correct use of tactics would have prevented the avoidable death of his nephew forward inspector thanks for going on going underground to a year since your great nephew twenty year old russian charles died after being restrained by police the police force you worked for why do you reject the inquest verdict of the death was an accident the rejection is is quite straightforward i did it many weeks before the inquest sat before the jury was sworn in because i
8:07 pm
spoke to the lead investigator on several occasions and i saw pointed out a number of issues which i considered were flawed in the investigation. i was for both disregarded in terms of some of the issues i raised my take is that bearing in mind. i have an investigative background they want to get to the bottom of it and as to why we could have worked together i would do nothing to impede their investigation i would hopefully think with the knowledge that i have an experience i have i'll be able to enhance the quality investigation it proved to me to be the case that they didn't want to engage with me and i think they saw me as a distraction or maybe they thought prejudice the case of already covered that that wouldn't be the case but above all if you bring a flawed investigation into an inquest then the process will be flawed and that is exactly what has happened i said it was going to be a predetermined outcome that's exactly what has happened every before we get to
8:08 pm
these alleged flaws just to be clear your decades of experience as a chief inspector at the met it wasn't that that emotional connection to that to russia in your great nephew before the in-store c.c.t.v. video was suddenly appeared on the media actually you tended to side with the police not matter side with the police but i understand the question on the twenty second of july died i learnt about it during the day. he died late at night or early hours of the morning and my assumption was well i mean of course it is sad and my assumption was then the officer probably did what he had to do in the circumstances twenty odd hours later a niece of mine said uncle look at the some of the c.c.t.v. what's on you tube and having viewed the youtube footage. it changed everything it was clear to me that it was not. a straightforward detention and it's clear to me
8:09 pm
as it was then and now that it's unavoidable. death mind my nephew encountered is the inquest the officer known as b. x. forty seven it was really done twenty one different safety training courses he done emergency first aid before he was restrained yes he made a mistake by forgetting to turn on his body camera forgot to do any breathing checks and forgot to go an ambulance but. you know he had the experience and he was individual a member of the territorial support group b x four seven is at the highest level of training he receives regular training i used to be a member of the territory support group as a sergeant when i was promoted on i was a trainer designing and delivering training to terril support territorial support group and then subsequently i was responsible for deploying them to numerous in strategy. for me he has received
8:10 pm
a significant amount of training in terms of the pursuit i have no qualms of course he must push you people you suspect might be committing crimes but i have serious criticisms and concerns about almost everything he did once he made contact so something wrong with the training here or something wrong with the way be x. forty seven i think the police training is at very high level he i don't think it will have trained significantly from the type of training that i received. i think it's about the way in which the officer decided to employ and deploy himself and his tactics at the time of the training mission. and he was interviewed shortly after he was interviewed on the twenty second of july he wasn't interviewed until the fourth of december to may that's another aspect of the flawed investigation it's for me almost unheard of any explanation two years to why the delay i cannot fathom out why but it certainly tells me there is
8:11 pm
a flawed investigation to leave such a long gap in between the the incident and the investigation i don't know how you would expect to get a thorough and robust oversight and insight into what place now you know the two the use of force expert through the evidence request judge used to advise the jury to take into account and deciding with the russians that was an accident so surely that should give you more confidence i know both individuals one i know better than the other but we were serving at the same time i did thirty years one did thirty one years and the other forty four but the the latter is currently still serving with the police my concerns are simply this i think that they or i know from personal experience that they are competent accomplished trainers. but their contribution to this case they are neither impartial they are not object if they have not been objective logs they certainly are being seen to be impartial because
8:12 pm
they are from the same force why they certainly are not independent but why would that be why would the who chose members of the metropolitan police britain's largest police force to investigate themselves in effect i guess it would be investigation of police conduct falls to the i o. p.c. so it is a new body replacing the another body is changes name so i leave the c. up until january can a have been reprinted in reconfigured so to speak even though the investigator didn't change the team didn't change but it's change of top top level i want to be fair to them because they need to be given time to show that they can be invest independent investigators but the signs are good the i.p.c.c. and the police complaints authority that preceded them were floored and all the signs point to that the i.o.p. see follow in a similar tack they had a choice of over forty different forces to go to to choose experts to comment on
8:13 pm
what we see on the c.c.t.v. and what they had on the body one video and they chose to go with. individuals who have integra links to the very force under scrutiny it's bizarre or your reaction to these latest police custody death cases highest level for a decade disproportionately people of color and with mental illness i understand that your great nephew is not in the figures because of the statistical issue with deaths at the hands of police he only he and i and others are not in the figures are x. and the costers another case another problem five year old died of police we don't get all these learned yet but the reason they're not in the figures i understand is . because they weren't formally told that they were under arrest and had the. rights read the rights read to them notwithstanding the fact that everything else
8:14 pm
that took place in terms of the levels of force the use of handcuffs the levels of restraint applied. they were. deprived of their liberty i think it's a mental and i think it's statistical mental manipulation that the i o. p.c. are are toying with because to my mind death following police contact should be the term and the umbrella that we look at my concerns is the levels of investigate the quality of the investigations less so the statistics are the investigations conducted by the i o. p.c. to good standard i sadly i can't say this i should also mention jane brown a twenty nine year old in leicestershire years in the middle so deb recalls of the ngo inquest jersey de facto to a bell of the city of london is a contributory factor to these sorts of deaths mental health service cuts obviously
8:15 pm
denying that this is in any way absolves. policemen and women of duty of care is that one element in this larger case that you say of our training or i think it is austerity is it brings us into the how we manage those poor souls who are mentally unwell and they're in need of specialist care specialist help for many many years currently and in my time in the service. the responsibility for managing mentally unwell people were forced in the police well the police are highly trained but they're not trained to the depth and breath of specialist care that is required to to look after these. did. these unwell people it is unfair to the unwell people it is unfair to foist that responsibility onto the police service. and if we were jeev inspector robson after twenty eight crash for
8:16 pm
a number of years did you see it on the front lines i think it was it has got progressively worse but it's been there for decades police are being left to deal with. mentally unwell people now if you encounter mentally and well person on the in a public place obviously the police will will take steps to deal with them and get them to a place of safety. what becomes problematic is the officers deal with them on the street get them to a place of safety yet the responsibility tends to stay with the police sometimes individuals who are in well in hospitals. being treated. for their psychiatric needs have police officers called in to support the medical experts that's not a domain for the police service i must be absolutely clear about what i'm saying here nothing that i am saying is anti police i have no time to smolder life when it
8:17 pm
is absolutely no no time for anybody who is who is anti police because they suggest that the police can do nothing right and they time ish excellent officers who don't work day in day out to do good work in a timely system with this label the flip side of it is i also reject those people who are pro police is another extreme simply because those individuals say the police can do no wrong it isn't about trying to vilify the force that i am proud to have served it's about getting to the bottom and also invited the police to work with me and other groups who are keen to minimise i say minimize because you'll never stamp it out i mean in the event that somebody gets brought gets arrested they might actually generally become unwell that may not be the custody officer's fault but i'm talking about these clear cases where high levels of force not merited. but they are used on individuals and then the headlines say the person
8:18 pm
became unwell and they and life is pronounced extinct that's something i have to do something about so much even specter thank you and that's it for the show will be back on wednesday hundred years it's about the valve meal which maybe i'll give the school but in the ending of the first world war by german socialists keep in touch by social media we'll be back on wednesday forty four years to the day that richard nixon responsible for would be killing or displacing tens of millions about his resignation on t.v. . first. of all the. georgia shutdown could also document on the first thanks.
8:19 pm
how much. the hushed. members. really. need it to muster. some of the sheen young girl. was on. the go with a very. good fortune you know what. i mean for her. to come this morning the smile the last. join me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure and i'll be speaking to us from the
8:20 pm
world of politics or business i'm sure i'll see you then. the u.s. slams around with new sanctions with little support from the e.u. with brussels to block the new restrictions to protect companies working with. double standards emerge in the u.s. after a conservative activist gets suspended by twitter for mimicking a controversial journalist whose racist tweets remained on the platform for years. and we can't share with all friends reunited with their families the children were taken from russia by the radical eyes of parents who went to join islamic state. i remember when the film crew arrived and they showed me the footage i could not believe it i could not believe that it was possible that my girls could come back
8:21 pm
home she doesn't let me go anywhere. good evening thanks for joining us this is r.t. and. washington has announced the first round of sanctions against iran which it hopes will weaken the country's leadership president trump since threatened severe consequences for those who continue to trade with iran still not everybody seems to be on board there my colleague andrew farmer got details from r.t. and peter all of. the first round of sanctions will take effect tuesday around midnight and from that moment on sanctions will prohibit iran from trading gold and other precious metals and fails of iranian automobiles will also be banned now the first round of sanctions will also ban iran's access to the u.s. dollar and place restrictions on its own currency but the worst is yet to come more
8:22 pm
sanctions are due to hit iran in november and those are specifically tailored to bring iran's oil exports to zero now this should come as no surprise given that trump has been flamming the iran deal since its campaign days even though he didn't give in until much later finally withdrawing this past may a little over a year into his presidency they said it was ineffective in tailing so-called iranian aggression now not even his allies or the un convinced him otherwise but trump also claimed that the agreement did not block paths to iranian nuclear ization which according to the u.n. is false even today u.n. monitors insist that iran is in full compliance with the deal the same deal that was lauded world over as a diplomatic breakthrough and believe it or not this past weekend trump bragged about crippling iran's economy via twitter of course his platform of choice when it comes to informing americans about critical policy decisions but several analysts and some iranians feel a bit differently. i believe the impact of sanctions on people's lives has been
8:23 pm
very clear especially in the health sector the patience is one of the opportunities that are there for students to study abroad the impact has been negative and has reduced people power into. these sanctions are economic sanctions and they will impact the livelihoods of people the government after all can make adjustments to its budget but it's the people who bear the brunt i don't buy trump's line that these sanctions target the government these sanctions are being directly apply to the people but trump has stated that he's open to signing. new deal but it's doubtful that iran would want to sit down with the u.s. after recent events ok let's go to peter. because the e.u. has given quite a stern response isn't it to the sanctions well that's right it's fair to say that the european union and donald trump haven't seen eye to eye on a number of issues they fell out over the decision to move the u.s.
8:24 pm
embassy to jerusalem and in israel they fell out over donald trump's unilateral move to pull out of the paris climate accord but it's his decision to pull out of the iran nuclear deal that upsets some of the biggest names in european leaders as well as in this one the diploma there was a communique issued well before this announcement that said the european union stance on the new tranche of sanctions was a unanimous no we are determined to protect european economic operators in legitimate business with iran this is why european union's updated blocking statute enters into force under seven of august to protect e.u. companies doing legitimate business but he ran from the impact of u.s. extraterritorial sanctions so what is the blocking stuff to it well it was initially written into law back in one thousand nine hundred six it was designed to allow european companies to get around a u.s. blockade of cuba however it was significantly rewritten earlier this year to focus
8:25 pm
on iran what it means essentially is that european companies have to pay no heed to sanctions against a country in which they're doing business say iran in this case and also that any courtroom in a foreign country based on those business dealings another fight in the eyes of the e.u. but put it this way with a hypothetical example say you're an e.u. car manufacturer and you've got yourself a toehold in a run maybe tens perhaps hundreds of millions of dollars worth of business that would be protected by the e.u. however the e.u. can't protect in another country. say the united states and say you that same you can manufacture and you do tens of billions of dollars worth of business in the u.s. well that business could potentially be penalized we haven't seen the e.u. blocking start to it ever fully interacted we don't know how it's going to be received but certainly potentially illegal headache for some people far smarter than myself right now to be going through that however in response to this news
8:26 pm
from the european union there's been a warm reception from tehran to do the entire world has shown it disagrees with the u.s. policies against iran talk to anyone anywhere in the world and they will tell you that netanyahu trump and been some manner isolated not iran well the u.s. secretary of state might pompei i disagree strongly with that he says that the sanctions and needed against iran to bring them back to what he calls the table of normal nations they've got to behave like a normal country that's the ask is pretty simple we think that most other countries everyone with whom i spoke who understand that they need to behave normally and they understand that this is a country that threatens them it would seem that those countries that secretary pompei i spoke to were not countries because this is where we stand at the moment the european union has issued its toughest legislation to protect companies doing business in iran essentially saying that they won't support u.s.
8:27 pm
sanctions and they're going to do their best to try and keep the iran nuclear deal alive even without the united states you any president has dismissed trump's call for talks saying diplomatic dialogue needs honesty which he says the u.s. president lacks politics professor at the university of tehran sayyid mohammad marandi believes there is no chance of talks between the two countries in the near future. if for any reason the iranians at this stage except except to negotiate with trump that would basically encourage the united states to increase their pressure because they'll think that their illegal behavior ripping up the agreement doing whatever they want ignoring the p five plus one in the international community of that works so the iranians believe that that will only make the americans more aggressive on the other hand when the united states tears up an agreement that was negotiated for years then there really is no reason to negotiate because who say that if we have an agreement in future with with the
8:28 pm
regime a regime in washington who's to say that the united states is going to abide by those commitments. the conservative activist in the united states has found themselves suspended by twitter for mimicking the racist tweets of a new york times editorial board member killing morgan has details. she's been removed from twitter because they say that her tweets violate their rules regarding hateful content candace she's from turning points usa conservative organization in the usa what she did was she took tweets from new york times journalist sarah job and simply replaced the words white with the words black or the word jewish hundreds of tweets from sarah jiang regarding white people she simply changed the target of the tweet from whites to black or jewish when she did this the response
8:29 pm
of twitter was to shut down her account candace owens says that twitter was right to take down her posts and ban her for making hateful comments regarding black and jewish people she says however the outrage is that sarah jiang was not banned for making these comments about white people on the surface i actually agree with twitter's assessment i believe that what i said when i tweeted was wrong you should not be able to tweet about any race or any group that you want them canceled that they should live underground i don't know why suddenly people think that white people are excluded from that scenario that people can't be racist towards white people when in fact they often are the problem with the new york times essentially saying shinning her behavior is that they are signaling to the rest of the world that racism actually is ok as long as you pick the right race this was candice owens first statement to her followers after the ban twitter not only reinstated her account but actually apologized and said that it was
8:30 pm
a mistake for her to be banned now immediately there was a firestorm with people pointing to what they see as a double standard by the way as you go. tweets and replace the points with blank i'm in tweets of bones that i was double standard kenda so once replaces word white with black and jews get suspended this is one we all call a double. pender every time i see one of these i can't help substitute black for white count is so stupid i will never understand the double standard why it's acceptable to so many now the wikipedia page of the new york times journalist is also in question now the page simply describes her as a journalist and has minimal content regarding the controversy surrounding her tweets it appears that there has now been added a small reference to it but these tweets the controversy surrounding them seems to be quite a big.
