just. in the headlines this morning a passenger jet has crashed into the sea showed after took off for me at the knees even popular all one hundred eighty nine aboard the no searching among them. headlines nato war games or protests of norway's troops conducting this biggest thrills since the cold war and also. i germany's on him a gratian have tea party eyes its first seats in the state of tests giving it

a place in every regional probably the chancellor merkel's ruling coalition party suffered more big election losses like the correspondent. and that was from the fukushima japan is accused of violating human rights by the un you can see people being forced to live in areas where radiation levels remain and say i spoken to several mothers in particular who feel that they are being compelled to return because of financial hardships. by their good morning thanks for watching out international with week haven't i when coming to live from the main h.q. here in moscow richest in ten hands my. first up bad news information easy this morning a passenger plane with one hundred eighty nine on board is crashed into the sea shortly after it took off from the indonesian capital how about six twenty this morning local time there the country said. rescue agency has now confirmed there

are no survivors it was a lion air flight j t one sixty traveling to the city of punk old panning just over an hour from jakarta videos been released showing debris and oil from the boeing seven three seven in the java sea divers now being deployed to the area where they'll be working in depths of up to thirty five meters it's easier civil aviation chief says the crew had requested to make an emergency landing almost immediately after they took off but about lion air it's a low cost carrier it's confirmed that the plane lost contact with air traffic control thirteen minutes after takeoff but is yet to issue any further statements that aircraft came down just about twenty five kilometers from the airport it's being reported the sailors on board a nearby tug that disaster at sea. relatives of those on board the doomed lion air flight have gathered to carter's airport crisis center that's been set up every action expert told the several factors could have caused this plane to come down i . think did it happen within thirty minutes the last. two or

so that. probably within that time were just shortly after the tsunami. who of time to need to call in the. at this point it's hard to speculate but it would a lot of times running into you see you know really too much we sometimes this could be a safety issue. with. most incidents. eighty percent of them accidents or. road so. so we have to see for. a bit about the type of plane it was a new type of aircraft a boeing seven three seven max eight that's american narrow body jet the can seat maximum two hundred thirty people liner says that plane is very new the set was built this year it only entered service in august but wing says it's ready to provide technical assistance to air crash investigators right now it's still not

known what caused the plane to get into these difficulties so so into the trip a spokesman for the rescue agency posted pictures on twitter showing books bags seat and parts the fuselage of the being pulled from the sea he also said that one child into infants were on board that flight. in germany supporters of the immigration air tea party are related after elections in the region of hesse early results suggest they will enter parliament there giving it representation in every german state. with the. as for chancellor merkel's coalition both c.d.u. under social democrats are on course to suffer heavy losses in sunday's election has been a surge of support for the green party though let's go to berlin live for a correspondent peter all of the feet of morning it's a regional election this but there are nationwide ramifications to it out there.

certainly this is been a bellwether state in the past for for opinion it's one backwards and forwards in the past between the the social democrats are merkel's christian democratic union this time though the big winners well those two have been the big losers the big winners have been the greens who've picked up around twenty percent of the vote. they've really come from nowhere if we think back to last year in the general election here they limped over the line to take seats up in the bundestag twenty eight hundred been a very different story though they gained a large amount of ground in bavaria in state elections they've done the same thing as well so the greens it was a great night for them also a great night for supporters of alternative for germany they picked up around thirteen percent ballsy them into the state parliament of passive for the first time meaning that's well in the state where they were founded back in twenty thirteen the first meeting took place it means that they've now got representation

in all sixteen states in germany as well as the national parliament in the bundestag their leadership party leadership clearly very happy with the result on sunday evening with the people's party the f.t. is now represented in every german region after the great success it has. well where there's when is there has to be loses in the for the christian democratic union i'm going to merkel's party they will register their worst result in the state of hesse or in fifty years they've dropped ten percent of the vote it looks like along with their coalition partners the social democrats and we're starting to hear more and more rumbles of discontent amongst the christian democratic union with the person at the top of the tree until a merkel. that's how this evening there was a very mixed message has there once the christian democratic union to continue leading this state many people have shown during this election must be different

not in the. make no mistake though this isn't going to be the result that topples angola merkel however should her political tennis things start to come to an end well this may be seen as one of the thousand cuts that led to its demise. artie's europe correspondent pedro of a france they have played their lives morning. well for some in germany the rise in support for their visa real cause of concern because of his harsh stance on immigration most of things protesters turned out in front as the first results came out political analyst even meissner told us the ruling parties are going to have to change if they want to stay in power. state election of probably a proxy vote nationally as well that's not just a local thought it will definitely put markel in a weak position she's been getting weaker and weaker as and more and more unpopular and now if they lose and they seem to have lost big there as well again i would

expect she'd be under is pretty severe pressure and now. as far as the support on the federal level that at some point this city you is going to have to look for a new face she's getting very unpopular i think she's a more of a liability for the party than she is a positive fact for instance there have been these so-called. demonstrations going on for about a year and a half now that means in german the english translation is america has to go and i don't ever remember seeing shrewder like the chancellor before passed the goal demonstrations or before him was called i don't ever remember is having demonstrations here in germany saying call has to go at least in part of the population she's become really highly unpopular. hundreds of antiwar protesters have gathered in oslo against nato drills in norway the alliance is flexing its muscle of the biggest military exercises is the cold war it comes after moscow held

its own major drills last month. reports. fifty thousand troops two hundred and fifty aircraft sixty five warships and. ten thousand tanks and vehicles that's a pretty straightforward message it is ambitious and it is demanding in recent years europe's security environment how significant it irritated nato has been careful not to mention moscow as the boogeyman which the exercise is aimed against but there are no illusions nato jets will be flying i mean two hundred kilometers from russian borders troops will be learning to fight in cold conditions against a simulated enemy that is and surprisingly exactly as powerful as moscow the

effect of this activity will increase the tension between norway and russia despite quite clumsy attempts by the representatives of the alliance and its member states to picture such military activity as defensive it's obvious that this fighting capabilities demonstration has a distinct anti russian character tensions now a worse than they've been in a third of a century both nato and moscow have been go into it streams staging bigger and bigger war games russia's vostok maneuvers the natives trident war games record size for both this year and each blaming each other. for stock demonstrates russia's focus on exercising large scale conflict it fits into a pattern we've seen over some time and more assertive russia significantly increasing its defense budget and its military presence. wait wait wait getting a little carried away that russia's military budget has been decreasing not

increasing year after year you'd have thought nato intelligence would have spotted that now compare moscow's military spending to nato's which is almost a trillion dollars a year it literally accounts for a half the world's military spending i mean there is no competition here. in this the need to use military activity at the borders of russia has reached an unprecedented post cold war level bloc countries are engaged in offensive drills the aim of all this is increased capacity to swiftly deploy troops across europe. it's a remarkable cycle nato builds up its forces moscow responds by building up its own we catch nato then calls russian aggression and uses it to justify stationing more tanks more troops near russia. and repeat its part of the confrontation of politics against russia. and maybe the future also against china but in any case

we don't need these actions were we need is a product of common security of design a manned and a friendly relations to russia. since the nineteenth century always. discussion in europe above the aggressor and always other countries. saying russia. all very impressive as far as military escalations go but what with all these war games this propaganda militant rhetoric and collapsing arms treaties one can only wonder how long can we go on like this and much more we can escalate the for is stupid decision or an accident puts a spark to this trillion dollar powder keg. from war to. nuclear threats there's

a lot going on in the world these days get people concerned right now but it turns out the biggest fear for people in the united states is much closer though because the most experience with halloween fast approaching pollsters are looking into what strikes fear into americans the most now turn on any mainstream t.v. network and they'll have an answer for you efforts to influence the twenty to eighteen mid-term elections the big news and divisive stories and posts caravan of impoverished migrants white nationalists prepared to take to the streets trump administration plan could a race definition of transgender but according to a new poll conducted by chapman university in california americans actual fears don't really line up when given a list of one hundred things to be afraid of including nuclear war zombies ghosts and other terrors americans listed their primary phobia for the fourth consecutive year as being corrupt politicians. and perhaps this fear isn't

exactly baseless we do have a president whose tax returns are still under wraps and he seems to be pretty blatantly doing favors for his next of kin i've heard i've heard how good with. the people that know this is nothing to do with that but does that but i want to tell you the people that know that he wagner would be dynamite but. then be accused of nepotism if you could believe it right and trump got a lectured by tearing into his opponent hillary clinton he called her crooked hillary because her reputation for shady deals has been around for years the f.b.i. even looked into her clinton foundation the former secretary of state never shied away from taking big sums from financial heavyweights to do have to be paid six hundred seventy five thousand dollars well i don't know that's what they offered. accusations of corruption are abundant in american politics even though they. we rarely make the legal field in the united states there's all kinds of politicians

being accused of insider trading lavish gifts as they say welcome to american politics but it seems that the mainstream media is working overtime to direct our phobias elsewhere there's no limit to what the russian federation do to undermine american democracy while you know what we have to work on immigration i have a big dairy district a live agriculture a lot of undocumented workers but these things aren't even in the top ten because we have so many of them. the things that relate to your life or the future of your kids and things like that not trumped up things like you know terrorism is going to get to or your bridges are going to fall down or something it's real life things that people are worried about a part of it is the economic ones including the corruption of politicians i was interested in the corrupt politician thing being at the top because for a long time people haven't recognized how corrupt their politicians are they think it's thinking in gradually that the whole system really stinks american politicians

have learned that playing on people's fears is a big seller but it seems that what scares the americans the most is the very scare mongers trying to manipulate their fears kaleb mopp and r.t. new york could break neck speed off of coming up thousands turn out in rio after a bruising presidential election sees voters make a big shift to the right just one of the headlines we're covering from moscow. manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. in the final.

we can all middle of the room sick. to bomb a really was very european and his approach would be very well suited is in brussels for example doesn't represent america is america for better or worse and i think what we're trying to do here is to let the world see. here. being told by the un it might be violating human rights by forcing families to return to fukushima seven years after the nuclear plant melt when that the area

uninhabitable the japanese government insists some areas in there are safe but the u.n. special report on hazardous substances says many feel they were forced to return. spoken to several mothers in particular who feel that they are being compelled to return because of financial hardship their financial assistance that was provided to them after the disaster has been reduced or eliminated however if you look at the actual recommendations what the what. international bodies say is that they actually do not know what is acceptable dose of radiation for children and women of reproductive age and they urge caution and a justification of any options one of the unanswered questions that we have regarding fukushima relating to the waste is what they are going to do with the radioactive store soil that's been stored in large plastic bags around around fukushima and where that will be disposed to date we have no answer for that either

further the u.n. says it's disappointed that japan's ignored recommendations as to what coast issues are the safe level of radiation after the disaster in twenty eleven the government raised the safety threshold twenty times the unipod says such levels pose a significant danger to public health especially children. the japanese are trying to move the situation back to a status quo as it was before the nuclear disaster as quickly as possible and in many ways that's to be commended but there also may be a possibility in this is why we're concerned that the japanese government is moving too quickly and perhaps not ensuring inadequate level of safety in particular for vulnerable groups such as pregnant women and children the japanese foreign ministry

says the u.n. support is based on one sided information that could cause unnecessary fears about fukushima. next brazil where after a turbulent and hard full presidential campaign the right wing candidate. is seen off as socialist rival finance dad thousands of elated supporters of the country's president elect who gathered on the streets of rio to celebrate. was it was. was was was. however was in all celebration are also violent clashes between full snorer supporters and opponents of one rio neighborhood and also in sao paulo the former army captain kidd of a fifty five percent of the vote in brazilian politics he's a figure no for his controversial statements he once called for the murder of a sitting president he lamented the demise of the country's military dictatorship

and also lost bitter attacks on women and minority groups he ran on an anti crime corruption platform and has proved skilled philip engaging with voters especially via social media was not as workers' party opponent fernando had dubbed meantime the former mayor of san paolo he into the presidential race after jailed for president of the silver was banned from participating with his polar ice candidates brazil's election has been a tense race is a look back at it. we'll.

just excitement for a better country we've had enough of corruption. from the people in africa sitting on a health care. plan. i saw the mess sixty's here and the old ladies and eighty to ninety who have lived through that will come out of their homes to fight for democracy i can hear those people relatives santos from the free brazil movement believes that despite his controversial statements false knows when doesn't pose a threat to democracy in brazil yes he looked best he used to make a real difference to me really three which we had in the past press he made

statements on t.v. and stuff but the corporatists that we took besides he is a columnist for the office he has always said that he would support democracy that his first speech as an elected president was a change the constitution and defending our democracy and at same time it's final result that we see the light talk about democracy is the use our system to use brazil to fight us to fall out into support. of military all the root regimes most of america. tech giant google's under pressure after reports of former senior executive received a multi-billion dollar exit package after being accused of sexual misconduct by a colleague it's also accused of trying to silence the story goes back to twenty fourteen it goes down off reports the era of need to has been celebrated as a turning point no more it seemed could sexual harassers get away with it it to me to me to be me to be to me to me to meet pull.

but as some perpetrators were ostracized and ruined for life others apparently were covered and protected this is the claim made in a new york times article about the man who fathered the android mobile operating system allegedly the google big short coerced and other employee into intercourse at a hotel. well an accusation andy rubin denies specifically i never coerced a woman to have sex in a hotel room these false allegations are part of a smear campaign by my ex-wife. but the misconduct story is only part of the scandal according to the paper google's big head has reportedly knew of the allegations but there was no big outing for rubin no public shaming no kavanah scale investigation what happened instead a discreet resignation letter filed by the executive a goodbye golden handshake of a staggering ninety million dollars and they passed on the back from the big boss i

want to wish and the all the best with what's next with android he created something through the remarkable with a billion plus happy users and the irony is that it's google one of the champions of the me too movement and supported by actions like creating a whole project with this guy catching heat map for the hash tag and note that we did not edit this in any way including the music. when the paper published its investigation google retorted by flaunting its record of layoffs over such accusations in the last two years forty eight people have been terminated for sexual harassment including thirty who were seedy and managers and above and from we've learned so far this scandal looks pretty black and white good guy the new york times against potentially bad guy google but the irony actually

goes deeper here the new york times is amidst a very similar scandal itself back in two thousand and seventeen their white house correspondent glenn thrush was accused of inappropriate sexual behavior the paper did punish him by not allowing him to cover white house events anymore because yeah that'll show him those who are preaching the loudest about things like tolerance or things like you know taking. moral highground are often those who don't hold themselves to that same accountability because i don't think for them it's necessarily a more ality or even you know a principle of theirs i think it's more about politics to them so then when it's convenient for them to say they espouse the mitsu movement for political pragmatism or for you know sometimes i think click for click baits things like that that's very different from when it hits them personally the need to phenomenon had a lot of women inspired and empowered to giving them hope that maybe they don't

have to be afraid to speak out anymore and while this message could not be more true it's hypocrites within the ranks that are stealing the hope from the victims a snapshot of so many will do stories this from moscow so much work was that he dot com for those kids who grew us the day. you know world big partisan law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back and

shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the troops the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. we're going underground on u.k. budget day amidst the western economic crisis coming up in the show the last two budgets before breakfast at all the last budget before britain's economic collapse we ask britain's shadow chancellor has advised a guy standing about today's budget and why the u.k.

government isn't using billions off shore to fund health care schools and the starving and after the earthquake recorded in england days up the fracking scots we speak to an activist willing to risk his freedom to stop shale gas but first let's go straight to today's budget joining me now via skype from geneva is economic adviser to u.k. shadow chancellor john mcdonnell and council member for the progressive economy forum prefer. guy says the guy thanks for being on the show again every year to resume or previously cameron said austerity was over meaningless in the context of today's a budget the last before brics it i think this is become a very sick joke to be honest we've had a dick eight and eight years under the tories basically in which the public social spending has been slashed slashed each year and each year this is it we're told the pain is being shared and it isn't being shared we have a ridiculous situation today where six hundred police stations for example

have been closed in the last five years and we have cities like bart don't even have a police station to say that austerity is ended means that they're going to have to restore all the public libraries the public parks the police stations and the facilities that have been closed or clamped down they're going to have to reverse eight years of suffering imposed on the british people and when they say it's indeed i think this is management tricks to give a little accounting to a situation that is not going to be resolved or repaired for a very long time i want to get on to the big four accounting firms that no doubt will be giving advice after today's a budget but as you know they'll be mainstream media coverage and when the say the topic of universal credit comes up they'll say the government has to roll it out it will be.
