10:00 am
a murder was never great was founded on the rape in the murder. nothing changed so we said in. response to these situations that we're dealing with. people just sad every day she is because people kill each other blood for killing children. so it was just no way that people are going to just sit back and allow children to be shot down law enforcement. this country doesn't work for us it doesn't function for us. this this can't be happening in america we call from the streets we've got to deal with why this is the reason i
10:01 am
have to ride like this is the reason. became this national camera. roughly once they showed some movies for them. to join cool videos and someone with a broken string out. going down more on string i don't rightly don't t.v. . the way to the united states is dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. because you've got an artist that's not the word of sympathy i want to become less a mentor and i want to ask some just about what if many of them look for refuge in the so-called sentry sites the drug use to share information about undocumented migrants with federal authorities how to best person asked banned. list you know no
10:02 am
i've ended up that's not going to mean a lot less and i want that. to happen and they have to watch as they all should. to stay in the country with donald trump in the white house or for the cardinals they all said he what if he had to be bad to the comment i said fitzgerald of many couples won't. kill the chance of putting food in those bottles of you out there to deal with all of the. welcome back joining me now to go through some of the stories broadcaster for the liberal democrat m.p. lembit opaque alex jones in four wars where banning that from you tube we're going to ban going underground from going to ban obviously the term murdoch press that's fine we can't trust people to make up their own minds afshin you should know that i know that's very true a very important decision by these internet companies they are private and it's up to them what they want about or not i personally dream on our show to google dream
10:03 am
on and he will go to the truth from the british guardian newspaper well you say it's the truth the guardian reports u.k. poised to ask russia to extradite solsbury attack suspect now with the russian embassy said it's going to happen is putin to take them in they were obviously killed by russia it's a great story a few small problems russia absolutely denies involvement to this point secondly there's been no legal proof whatsoever about who did it and thirdly we don't know who they want to extradite they say there are some such suspects here but i didn't hear very categorical is about to do it and the russian embassy by the way a time of according to have said that they've never heard of any of this well that doesn't really surprise me because this is the continuing smoke and mirrors that we've seen ever since the event took place there are plenty of people who want pro russia who are simply saying we have no evidence for this whatsoever who are you going to extradite if you have no solid evidence at all and for ministers to say well we actually have information we can't share it that's not how the law is meant
10:04 am
to work in this country i should just say jeremy scahill of the intercepts of the new coding is mentioned in the story of the guardian was thrashed brutally. for unsubstantiated rumor time and time again in this russia just look if you get one crucial point here russia is bad and the u.k. is good and a story ok well i'm going to say that that some people think it's criminal criminal stuff anyway we had in the first half of this show a person in the guise of the tiller so let's hear from the israeli press yes the jerusalem post reports israel lourdes us reimposition of sanctions on iran that's true from the israeli president got to agree with that not a big surprise you would be more surprised if it said israel condemns us the imposition of sanctions on iran to be saying that israel has a huge amount of play with the white house and i think it's an independent country and i think it would need to get all from delivery i think of the bigger news if they said that they didn't have that kind of control so they're going along with what trump saying just about saying that israel backs the u.s.
10:05 am
putting the turning the screw on iran and stopping medicines from going into or and all of that you know make war bring back the obama era saying to the threat of economic war that's really what we're talking about here and it's connected to the whole idea that chant has this new kind of diplomacy it's tied into something a chump to sell into this world and so yeah it's tied into this other story in c.n.n. trumps not spock iran sanctions aiming to change not topple tehran officials say now this is interesting terror and present it imagine rouhani steps back u.s. sanctions aiming to change not topple washington yeah it could be a symmetry. but i'm not sure we'll see that what's really going on here is the spokespeople in the white house are trying to reassure the world that donald trump's not trying to break international convention and law by has horribly law a regime that's violated the terms of the j.c.b. trying to convince us it's not that bad but what's what's really quite engaging
10:06 am
about this story is the fact he's now imposing or threatening to pose sanctions on europe for. imposing sanctions on the wrong trade or with the a bunch of already in the house but it's a second trade war with the e.u. about something else so what chance to side to do here is bearing in mind that they've got relatively small trade with iran about one tenth of what the european union has is saying i'm willing to sacrifice that to really show i'm tough on iran at the same time if you step out of line european union i'm going to have a trade war with you on top of the other trade war given how far is the us going to attack the e.u. because last to leave you well let's have the us famously aided saddam hussein's chemical weapons program to attack iraq there's no way the united states going to help chemical weapons powers attack the european well just about everyone is guilty but it's mainly in terms of trade here when it comes to the united states here's the reassurance trump has said this today they'll say the opposite tomorrow
10:07 am
business as usual the video big thank you now to some of the voices of those taking unprecedented coordinated strike action at the u.k. ministry of justice in the council of one of the richest places on earth london's kensington and chelsea this week the royal borrow will forever lie in the shadow of one of britain's worst ever tower block fires the grand fell catastrophe which claimed the lives of so many but it now faces new scrutiny over its use of outsourced for profit to private contractors i am striking here today because we are all suffering here and i am not the striking here for myself but i honestly i cannot support my other colleagues we have to do lots of different jobs to get a basic standard of living and if you have a i mean it if it works so it'll create use in one of their reach its place in london we have to do to survive. and respect i am pretty sure that we're there and we are going to win despite the strike action is being led by
10:08 am
united voices of the world are members led campaigning trade union of migrant and precarious workers. is its job. well secretary. thanks for being on going underground to the mainstream media saying there's a blame game going on why are your members going on strike unprecedented coordinated action it's plain and simple a striking because i can't afford to survive any longer in the wages that are being paid here at cannes didn't chelsea council they are paid a poverty wage they need and deserve a living wage a living wage asking for is the living wage which is an independent rate for the amount only ten pounds twenty is not a huge amount but it's a massive improvement on the current wage which is only seven eighty three per hour they can go on any longer having to work fourteen hours a day just just to survive in some cases someone who can't even afford a bus fare to work which is an absolute disgrace in any place in britain in two thousand and eighteen but especially in the richest council in the country and maybe even the well i don't know if there's a council which has more money in its coffers in kensington and chelsea so they're
10:09 am
striking today they're going to be striking tomorrow we strike in the next day and they will continue their strike until they get their demands met they just can't accept their wages any longer the council's got the money to pay them or they're just refusing to cough it up the refusing to pay them what they need and deserve just from the ministry of justice the heart of government just really you can have to tell me and update you on this because you just counsel told us cleaners are employed by amy we don't control amy pays this so though we do expect them to pay their staff appropriately i understand there's an update to the royal yeah so they're now on the back of this strike care that they will be bringing the cleaners in-house and that's actually we would have words a problem we were when we welcome the news what they haven't done yet is confirm what that means and we'll material terms to the cleaners and so you know if they announce that again as we paid at least a living wage they will get parity of annual leave allowance experiments with other stuff we call the strike off or go home and we'll celebrate but all they've done so far is say that they will bring the cleaners in-house why they haven't followed
10:10 am
a statement through with a confirmation of it of the exact pay rates and times of conditions and. i don't know. the curacy is too much for us to accept to settle this dispute so the strike will continue until they confirm concretely and clearly exactly what it is that they offering the cleaners and in the months to come any time scale and the previous other statements from councils of talked about stopping outsourcing which has been highly criticized. areas of british authorities even the public accounts committee yeah i mean ultimately as a trade union united voice of the world we would call on all clients to bring all of their services in house and outsourcing outsourcing has been nothing but bad news for workers and nothing but bad news for unions you think that these workers behind you could exert more power than the lobbying power of some of these big multinational companies that employ people in outsource contract to fight is an easy fight first of all for these workers to go out and strike
10:11 am
a confidentiality council and the ministry of justice is the first time any of these workers are striking before. striking this country going to strike and you know how many of them are afraid but they've overcome that fear they were afraid to begin with but not as a union of all unions do it should is really to help build the confidence of workers so that they can take the action which is required to win the money which they need to when. they have you know starting out in front of their manager today on strike that's a big deal it takes a lot of courage and they should be applauded and commended and set an example for all of us to follow really i mean kensington and chelsea have been upgrading oprah facilities in one part of the bar you obviously believe the employees who work to clean this but more important than opera facilities i don't think it's an either or is it a i mean i don't think we need to be a game stopper to call on the council to pay that kind of a living wage has been a lot of music here and it absolutely yeah this is a dark sort of lively picket line you know the council i believe is wasted thirty million pounds on the opera house and they've made a lot about a million pounds
10:12 am
a year as a i understand that same to happen to make a loss of a million pounds a year on an opera house but i'm not willing to. best parody would cost a million pounds or thereabouts to pay all of the outsourced of the living wage they've also just increased by two million pounds their p.r. budget says of the council which is going to rebrand themselves in light of their you know they would to they were to blame for the deaths of some to people who were trying to make savings which led to the deaths of all is an inquiry into that which we have to hear the result was a tragedy that will never be forgotten and the counselor should never be let off the hook for you know what they did in trying to make costs which of which ultimately led to the death of two people and all that you know and what they're doing here with the cane is destroying the same contempt towards people they don't think are worthy of decent wages and decent living conditions and a decent life and so again is just another example of this council really trying to make their profits off the backs of the lowest paid residents and a lot paid workers and they should say the labor him elected to go refused to come
10:13 am
to back you on this program we're going to speak to a counsellor what support do you getting from jeremy goldman's labor body of the opposition parties to the number of labor councillors. on an open letter in support of this strike some of come to the picket line today in code was on the picket lines today supporting the cleaners yeah we welcome any support from payson councillors the cane is needed and deserve it and we hope that obviously that support will you know increase the pressure. during the strike on the council to really meet made the case the months and weeks make we think we're going to win the strike when we will win a strike the question is when whether one is won in this round of strikes or the next round the strikes this fight will continue and then thank you thank you very much among the many expressing support for petrol strike action by the united voices of the world union was also a labor councillor at kensington and chelsea council had mason i'm now with councillor pat mason he's been
10:14 am
a council of the royal dora kensington and chelsea for twenty seven years patch two life sentences you're obviously support. this strike a labor representative labor councils are known for outsourcing which a lot of workers here say a lot of the problem. of employment why is the labor supporting them all this of course is not only because. but you know back in the thought your words when the governments were chopping and cutting budgets they said a message that just said many of your viewers not of not remember him is a structure was what i do and that you need to contract out your services to save money so a lot of them did it they all did it we are limited in the movement because i was secretary to face council here in this time we of course opposed that contracting out it was a neo liberal agenda item to cut down. the government could cut budgets and you could just get that get it cheaper it was always the workers that suffer because
10:15 am
seventy percent of any company's bill is the wage bill so you cut down on the on the wage bill this council here as of last year has contracted out three hundred sixty million of frontline services and the reason you have this is because you want to know sixty million pounds sixty million and the committee the only share of those contracts two years ago discover that they were wasting nine to ten mil they were leeching one to ten million in wasted two year one particular contract year called the managed services contract which had to be junked it alone in the last ten million pounds i mean these workers these cleaners only need probably less than a million to have the london living wage which you can actually live in on the living wage anyway. and these huge companies like running an hour and i mean dollars you can actually live on that you still need to becoming benefits these big companies you've looked at the balance sheet there were hundreds of millions of
10:16 am
pounds and they make hundreds of millions of pounds in profit and a penny tax on how any tax. they are in turn subsidized by the taxpayer let alone from the contract because of the wealth as all contractors are subsidized by the taxpayer if you're paying low wages to somebody going after claim housing benefit. cetera just just tell me how i just had a british television channel channel four news saying it's a bit of a blame game you're suggesting that something much more ideological at stake is in the shadow of grand fell that is maybe all i suggest that those your liberal policies coming to suggest those well heeled channel four and other reporters should go on start the cleaners for six months and see how if they think it's still a blame game when they can't pay their rent which is why sky let those people those those are the sorts of media the are losing millions of viewers because nobody believes what they say anymore they don't go out on the ground and because they don't go out on the ground and talk to people like you do. they come down to
10:17 am
demonstrations and all they see is the westminster bubble. that's why they are not trusted that's why they're not listening nobody in this bar and sat in the ground for people they don't trust the council they don't trust the government they don't they don't trust the media those channel four people should side living on even ten pounds twenty an hour for the next six months and give those cleaners they have jobs in that and channel four in the b.b.c. i bet you that wouldn't be talking about the blame game after that i'll bet you they wouldn't be there be living on the streets and sleeping bags. as well dragon idea and b.b.c. and of course the leaders of. the council on blind all of that thank you very much thank you.
10:18 am
we have no idea what he's doing on vacation but she will be back in september. it is a new school this is. the church secret indeed just like priests accused of sexually abusing children can get away with it quite literally i like to call this the geographic solution so what the bishop needs to do then he finds out that the
10:19 am
priest is is a perpetrator is simply moves him to a different spot were the previous standards not the highest ranks of the catholic church help conceal the accused priests from the police and justice so something that is as old as the eye and then i think you'll hear that it just is out and. gets fed.
10:20 am
up that lights are on our t.v. concern over social media giants acting like a self-appointed moral guardian after twitter suspends several prominent libertarian and conservative figures for a lead to hate speech and. the u.k. prime minister joins a growing chorus of calls for her ex foreign secretary to apologize to boris johnson said women are wearing ni-cads on because they look like the letter boxes and. who do you think would say something like that racist people. this was actually. also we meet
10:21 am
a woman who followed her husband who went to syria. and she now faces. whether or not. this is very. go on of course it's also international. there are social media policing what's acceptable to say and i think after numerous accounts belonging to libertarian conservative figures well. hate speech and he picks up the story. what matters are all of the stories we hear from all of you about the impact your connections have had on your lives you can choose from an infinite range of topics
10:22 am
that interest you and then easily follow that topic in the news countries and cultures that got together like never before. that was the online world as we used to know it all fluids to any of those pesky folks trying to set limits in two thousand and eighteen you'll be told to hold up if twitter decides there are spots of your world that shouldn't be discovered what if you're keen to know what someone has to say let it be former u.s. diplomat peter van buren you might as well unfollowing your interests the man's profile is shut down for good because he jokingly wish someone had eaten the face of his opponent in a twitter rant honestly that's by far not the most offensive thing you can find online but what's abusive about showing mr van buren some support to users who did so god bands to it's not about me it's not about the group of us who have band
10:23 am
together i think it's a bigger issue and it's an issue that's that's raised his head this week people like us who are not part of the legacy media we're not new york times shapers of opinion we're also allowed to have our say so if someone from the new york times or the washington post put something up that we know is false we can refute it almost in real time that's very threatening i think for the powers that be this tendency to want to shut people down if they disagree with you is very dangerous it's going down a very slippery slippery slope toward totalitarianism there's a word for that see and ask. well someone saw it coming when even perhaps the most controversial online talking had alex jones was told get out of here by all major platforms we remove hate speech to keep people. safe after all they all have to stick to their own rules and keep people safe from hate speech but then even those anti-left to come to hate jones went on alert could be because they
10:24 am
thought someone would click on their profiles and see a hold up pop up alex jones a bad guy but the problem is that once you start saying that hate speech is a rationale for banning people from social media you get in some very very big territory. i'm no fan of jones some other things he has a habit of repeatedly slandering my dad by falsely and absurdly accusing him of killing j.f.k. but who the hell made facebook the arbiter of political speech free speech includes views you disagree with but there's no turning back when it comes to the online censorship evolution so i'm not sure it works like that anymore mr cruz plus people on the left are ecstatic bring it on is their call and if it is even a crucial step forward in the fight against fake news and fringe extremism. info was is the tip of a giant iceberg of hate and lies the uses sites like facebook can use you to tear
10:25 am
our nation oppose these companies must do more than take down one website the survival of our democracy depends on it the world is getting older and a bit more off there were terry and only lately a top u.s. intelligence committee democrat has come up with twenty legislative proposals for keeping online platforms under a close watch brace yourself as you might soon have to say goodbye to things like anonymous posts or accounts that can be tracked down yeah that covers just two of the twenty we discussed the issues raised with former u.s. congressman ron paul he told us social media outlets thoughts who have really influenced by the government. that is a real mix bad the social media in one sense is a real delight there's a lot of information out there i have benefited by but it rejuvenated with a lot of government assistance in the biggest role the social networks play is
10:26 am
working with the government and giving the government the information they do the work for the n.s.a. so it's a mixed bag or they call themselves a private company the libertarian so we don't regulate private companies. and yet it's so mixed in empire law is the truth is treason so when people blurt out the treason on the internet it's not like they're saying something mean and ugly. things challenging the status quo is what they can't stand and they're nervous them so they have to silence people so it's more likely for an individual like myself to be silenced because i represent a challenge to the status quo but if anybody understands our first amendment the first amendment isn't there to talk about the whether the first amendment is there for us to be able to challenge our government but if we do that now whether it's direct regulation from the government or indirectly through social media we have a real challenge i'm just hoping the technology can stay ahead of it all and that
10:27 am
we can have alternatives to the dependency on twitter and these other companies that have been working hand in glove with the government and after all the accusations of twitter being biased in its account balance the social network surprised many this time by refusing to book the account of jones the man behind the controversial old wondered if news website info was though he has just been by a host of other online platforms though including facebook and you tube it's all over alleged hate speech. u.k. prime minister to resign may has backed calls from within her apology for boris johnson gaffe prone foreign secretary to apologize for comparing women to wearing the cobs to letterboxes. writing in his newspaper column johnson called muslim face coverings offensive britain's top diplomat also commented on women wearing burkas saying they look like and should be asked to remove their veils so
10:28 am
he read johnson's remarks to people on the streets of london to see if they could guess who made them. who do you think would say something like that racist people trump boris johnson and tommy robinson who. was actually boris johnson was no way. it was actually boris johnson even in. there but soon enough i. should never do that they can make you choose from trump. boris johnson and tommy robbers think it was boris johnson and might be sensible in public. exposure who do you think could have said something like that somebody didn't think. well i'll give you some options trump boris johnson or tommy robinson. sounds like that this. is actually boys johnson yeah. it's actually worse john some guys really
10:29 am
warning you know great depression for him to say that that's that's a terrible thing to say well if you were to could get. anything he says that i did. say that especially someone in that position that's that's even well it's. time now for the second in a series of reports on the fate of russian families who left for syria to fight for islamic state. in a culture to travel to south of russia to talk to a woman convicted to eight years in prison on terrorism charges it's awful she followed her husband to syria. the clock is ticking on zagat at current life sentenced to eight years behind bars for being part of an illegal armed group she won't actually go to jail until her
10:30 am
youngest child turns fourteen and she's only one right now less than twelve months ago her life was old very different i was twenty nine when i left i went to turkey first with my husband i never thought i would end up there. within seven months as i did that was living in syria and pregnant with her third child she says her husband had been drawn to islam and a better life. he told me it was safe to go there he said it wasn't how it was being shown there was no ball me he said no war but the reality turned out to be far worse than anything on t.v. they lived for two years in the city of top gun which at the times was under isolates control than they moved to rocca and she spent every day living in fear. even my girl.
