doc told. me i think i was it. was. because i was. british prime minister to resign made fast rules to save hebraic said planners key ministers quits a cabinet. but lost in peace to consider the national interest and gets that backing this withdrawal agreement represents a huge and damaging the deal that is already dead in the water. the largest terrorist faction in syria claims to have joined forces with so-called moderate rebels suffice the government's an adlib probably ends. as we look into

the horrific case of a russian man who cut off his wife's hands has been sentenced to fourteen years in prison. life from the russian capital this is r.t. international. top story the british prime minister theresa may is standing by her despite a rebellion from her own party she asked parliament to get behind her draw still with the. yes difficult and sometimes uncomfortable decisions have had to be made i understand fully that there is some who are unhappy with those compromises but this deal delivers what people voted for in the national interest and we can only secure it if we unite behind the agreement reached in camp and it yesterday. what's

come off to a bruising day of cabinet resignation letter is of no confidence and the three hour mourning in parliament. we could choose to leave with no deal we could risk no breaks it is all we can to wait. for or we can choose to unite and support the best deal that can be negotiated this deal the withdrawal agreement and the outline political career a should represent a huge and damaging failure as a psychologist it's clear to me to see that the prime minister is in denial the prime minister comes before us today trying to sell us the deal that is already dead in the water i'm almost tempted to ask if the if all of the members opposite will put their hands up if they actually do support the prime minister and the senate proposal and. my road order food fruit so good we would leave the customs

union. the next two says of a walk to my right over the fruit so that she would move the integrity of the united kingdom the whole procedure called says otherwise my right on who froze so that we would be armed to the jurisdiction of the european court of justice oscar one hundred seventy four says another was quite chaotic times in the u.k. at the moment as theresa may not only tries to push through and see her brags the deal but also essentially says save her post as prime minister of this country we're seeing right now a new set of resignations having taken place this morning with high profile cabinet ministers and junior ministers heading towards the door in defiance of may's approach towards praxis we certainly know that this is an extremely nerve wracking time not just for her but for the rest of the country that is watching exactly

where this brags that chaos is going to be leading i can show you some newspapers here that are not being forgiving towards to resubmit all. well this one is pretty self-explanatory as you can see there are others that are talking about eleven ministers rejected her proposals forty tory rebels are plotting to bring her down war cabinet and others are seeing me papers over the cracks and here we have another one that talks about a split cabinet split party and a split nation and indeed all of this comes following theresa may yesterday holding an entire five hour session with her cabinet ministers trying to push through and convince them that her draft directive deal agreed with the e.u. is the best one and the only one possible indeed we saw a very tense and divided cabinet. members of which did not necessarily want to accept what she was offering the alternatives to her pushing them to agree with her were resignation some of them we have seen today there's been quite

a bit of talk of me potentially having to resign herself and today she has also been appearing in parliament where there is still of course quite a bit of indignation because what happens next is this draft deal now that it's been approved by cabinet ministers following quite a fight it is going to go to brussels where it will be signed off by e.u. member states but then it has to come back to westminster and be approved in parliament and that is where it gets tricky course over the last several weeks there has been speculation has been ripe that a possible vote of no confidence could take place with the letters floating in of tory m.p.'s demanding that theresa may step down there have been a renewed wave of these speculations going around today saying that this could happen as early as today this thursday because of this renewed dissatisfaction with the way to recently has been handling this so indeed a very very chaotic time as theresa may tries to do her best at this point to try

to keep this ship afloat. british politician and broadcast said george galloway things theresa may will be removed from her power in a matter of days it's very hard to see her staying perhaps even beyond the weekend because at least forty eight conservative m.p.'s have i understand. of no confidence in her which triggers a no confidence debate and then vote and even if she won it as mrs that should did i remind you if a sufficiently large minority votes that they have no confidence in her i would have thought her goose was cooked it's been a series of cabinet resignations government minister resignations and parliamentary private secretary of resignations even the vice chairman of the conservative party

itself has resigned so it's very hard to see how someone who is dug in behind a bricks deal which seems to be almost friendless this is a failure is an orphan and success has a thousand parents well this breaks that deal look very much like an orphan to me today. a terrorist group in syria is claimed to have united rival factions to fight the government in any province this comes as the russian foreign ministry accuses so-called moderate rebels of helping extremists violate an internationally mediated buffets and agreements in reports syria's prominence is still an unbelievably complicated melting pot of anti assad militias from those known as syria's moderate rebels to internationally recognized terrorists like hayat to harir all sharm probably the mightiest group it's the

former nusra front otherwise it in syria should read. bell. well a so-called spokesman for the armed wing of that same talk. has given an interview but there are many. who feels like. the man didn't come up with any kind of full list of who's involved but kept repeating everyone in the free lands that's how he refers to areas not controlled by damascus question if we are to believe the guy have the lines between terrorists

and moderates been blurred completely an adlib technically there's a ceasefire between the government and the rebels and a buffer zone in the province right now it was brokered by turkey and russia and eventually backed by france and germany the buffer zone is meant to be free of any terrorists but if it is the terrorists that are now taking control of a joint command center for everyone how does the cease fire deal make sense anyway at least you're going to zation the programs guest works and fights for doesn't seem to have any intention of laying their guns down and. no one would you who he said have been. when i when he and then when. i was you know. thought oh this video also deserves a quick look to the right at the interview or some t.v.

stations used to love having kareem on air people executed it's as simple as that what can i do here. and see a blend in the crowd i don't think so am i going to turn my so over to regime forces absolutely not i'm out to see some of them. i'm. not going to spend some. time sometimes you will hear someone say that they are part of al-qaeda but what is their real affiliation to al qaeda other than some romantic notion to be honest with you he was one of those who were one sending out last messages from besieged aleppo before death from assad's bombs besieged aleppo. we may not be able to send anyone messages as regime forces push closer this might be close to if not be a last communication but his reports have since kept coming and he was even accused of links to al qaida something he has denied c.n.n.

actually try to distance themselves from a bill karim and one of their more recent documentaries well november twenty. two interviewing a high profile figure of tough we're all shocked aka x. news. aka al qaida in syria. ten list patrick henningsen believes that by supporting moderate rebel groups western paliser effectively helping terrorists. now you have effectively a consolidation of all the militants under one terrorist umbrella effectively so if the west is going to intervene diplomatically if the us is going to want to stop syria from retaking its own territory and its allies who are helping them do that then effectively they're taking the side of of a terrorist. concept officially according to h.t.s.

al nusra front in charge al-qaeda affiliate all under their control now so anymore and if they were moderate yesterday they're not moderate today syrian army russia turkey and even the us everyone has to accept the fact that it lived as a terrorist occupied. region right now and should deal with it accordingly. i get a scene setter opted in the share lankan parliament is a ballpark outs between it'll make us. was the tempus pull to it's us following discussions over here should leave the country should rely on cause pain and present since last month when his presidency abruptly

sacked the prime minister and suspended parliament the critics punted the may have an illegal and unconstitutional the who the russian man has been jailed for fourteen years for brutal assault on his wife that story and more coming up. please. please.

please. please click. click. welcome back to r.t. a man who cut off his wife's hands in a premeditated attack and gloated about says he's been sentenced to fourteen years in the high security jail in russia. picks up the old appalling story.

from this picture you think marguerite and maitreya lived in blissful happiness they've been together for five years and even had two young sons but behind the smiles slate another story some of their friends say that they were in fact colostrum divorce marguerita often complained that her husband had episodes of uncontrolled jealousy he was enraged that i was getting my nails done he'd think i was cheating on him if my bra in my pants matched he emptied out all my shampoos and creams and left empty choose in their place he was angry that i was doing well at work apparently he even checked her whole phone messages i woke up during the night and asked who it was she said to drive in from work but i didn't believe her i was on edge his suspicions fueled his anger so he forced her into the car drove her out into a forest threatened her and demanded she had me to cheating on him that time he let

her go she fled to the police but was told that there were not enough grounds to open a case against him her pleas for help fell on deaf ears and and that's what her husband's final brutal attack in december last year. volunteered to help i wanted to put my bag in the book he said there was no space port of thought that it was taken by an axe and bandages he played his part like a real actor silently he closed the door and drove off not to work but to the forced.

as we drove to the hospital he shouted what an adrenaline rush worst of all i was still conscious apparently my body gave the signal to keep drawn microsurgery lost it for nearly nine hours the doctors managed to sew back one hand but the other was so badly damaged in the brutal attack during which margarito remained conscious that it was impossible to save this case sent shock waves across the country and attracted so much needed attention to the problem of domestic violence to me treat was sentenced to fourteen years in prison while the officer who refused to open a case against him when margarita first went to the police is under investigation for dereliction of duty. the splits between the ukrainian

and russian orthodox churches could soon become official my colleague neil harvey discussed the situation with correspondent daniel hawkins. well religious scandals around churches in ukraine to many might seem irrelevant say historic theological debate but actually carries a lot more meaning to orthodox believers need to look at the basics first the eastern orthodox church is made up of fifteen different churches each of which one has autonomy in religious language that is called autocephaly meaning church has its own self governance independence and jurisdiction now the russian orthodox church for centuries has had rule over the key of orthodox church that's been the case since about the seventeenth century it's the only officially recognized congregation of all of the doxy in ukraine on the other hand no there have been political and religious factions in the country which a very long time pushed for a independent ukrainian orthodox to be established indeed the president of ukraine

petro poroshenko has been a supporter of this he's implied that the creation of this church is just as important to ukraine's independence and rebirth as joining the e.u. or nato autocephaly is the most important event from the same serious as our aspiration to join the un nato the association agreement a visa free regime with the e.u. withdrawal from the c.i.s. rejection of the deceptive treaty and friendship with russia etc all this is the basis of our all new way of development development of ukraine so if this is going to happen it's going to come easily it's quite a complicated situation in ukraine is that yes there's more than one orthodox church in ukraine apart from the main one recognized officially as part of the moscow patriarchate there are also two other churches now they broke away in the early ninety's when ukraine got its independence from the u.s.s.r. this is the key of patriarchates and the ukrainian autocephalous church these claim independence but they have never been recognized officially as official

corrugations that's until very recently when the patriarch of constantinople made moves to give them that autonomy independence as well this is very much anger. the moscow patriarch the process of granting autocephaly is artificial imposed from outside does not reflect internal ecclesiastical necessity will not bring real church unity will deepen division and intensify conflicts among the people of ukraine under these conditions the participation of the pesky pait clergy and laity of the you see in these process is is considered impossible and how is the russian orthodox church reacted well this is triggered a total breakdown in relations the moscow patriarchate has rejected this decision they've stated that they have had all thought over the key of corrugation since the seventeenth century and they've even called the schism triggered a schism with constantinople buying their followers from attending any ceremonies any communions with this church who they have now officially split with the russian

orthodox church does not accept these decisions and will not follow them schism is schism and its leaders are the leaders of the schism and the church that accepted the schism excluded itself from the canonical field of decision has been made to drop to full communion with the constantinople patriarchate we cannot be in communication with this church which is in schism what about the everyday church goers were they in any way be affected or i think it's going to cause a lot of confusion and division i mean this is seen as a wider context as part of that conflict between russia and ukraine east and west those debates over independence and cultural heritage one priest father mike tyson who's worked in west virginia for fifteen years has even switched churches in the wake of the schism he was he's left his patriarch of constantinople parish switching to a russian church he says this is supporting being in solidarity with the ukrainian orthodox church and now in the bigger picture here tensions have been rising since about twenty fourteen there have been dozens of attacks since then by ukrainian

nationalists on orthodox churches aligned with moscow they view them as enemies of ukraine as effectively tools of the kremlin in terms of. church property there may be conflicts as well the moscow aligned church owns around twelve thousand parishes in ukraine those two other ukrainian churches which may soon unite control about half that number so in terms of ownership of churches in terms of income revenue in terms of where followers are going to go and practice their faith this is certainly an issue that's not going to go away and is likely to certainly cause more confusion and division in a country already deeply divided. church history professor alexander dworkin says ukraine's moves will only make the country's divisions worth operator and worth all of you will never allow key of paternity to exist whatever this new church will be to build not be it q but eric and i still have my doubts as it will be for the for the independent polluter cephalus very sort it will be discrimination of those

believers that would want to stay with the canonical church will increase of course they will try to take their property away from them i mean the church property it will increase also or there all the tensions in the society as a way to increase all of the divisions in the society to increase all the disagreements of the society it will harm your prey. upon the entry committee in south africa has recommended a constitutional change to allow private land to be seized when it's in the national interest this follows a long running calls for the forced handover of white in farmlands to black farmers opposition groups say the legal change would be the wrong solution the vote on expropriation without compensation allows government the perfect cover to avoid having to explain their rank failure over the past two decades to take land reform

seriously the opposition does not oppose land reform we oppose the amendment of the constitution the land issue is a delicate and sensitive one it is indeed a social justice imperative which all south africans must rally around. if the amendment is passed white farmers could lose their lands and receive no compensation supporters say it would create new jobs for black people and reduce the long standing racial inequality more than two decades after the fall of the apartheid system in south africa white people own around seventy two percent of farmland despite making up just nine percent of the population we had from both sides of the debate. really needs out there a huge growth proceeds we need investment and we need stuff like this that the economy can grow and now they came out of this type of announcement and we've got great concern that i will anybody in based in the country you could government want to put in the constitution and i'm allowed to take your assets work out brain

program the problem is that they make this a beauty emotional proces in the upcoming election before the upcoming election so that they can position themselves for the population because at this stage are not be popular anymore now they tried to gain votes by means of making pronouncements they know other students. and it's which if you leave why is this type of inequality. a division is why i don't. believe this is a school system to get off the next location from which. what i mean. right now. it's thirty three years to be four years off the people could see them one day that case what people had said it might be because we saw just

this not just. thanks for staying with us so not a whole be back in just over thirty minutes time with more see that. manufacture consent to stick to the public well. when the closest to protect themselves. in the final. be the one percent. with no middle of the room sick. dallas. is what i wasn't.

we got carried away here we care the music with us. we are here we were dragged here. by us going to get rid of those who are not go away we will not die quietly. real the heart of what we do is the truth. but politicians. do you suppose they could. put themselves on the line they did accept it or reject it. so when you want to express. some want.

to do i approach this is like the full story of the point that. i'm interested in the water that. comes. out of. this is boom bust broadcasting around the world and covering the world of business and finance and the impact upon all of us i'm part chilton of washington thank you for being on board we're sure glad to have you coming up today we have a super broadcast and i can't wait to get to it off we'll talk about the future of

then tech that's financial technology with henri are swaying in the fin tech and crypto leader at big four accounting firm pricewaterhouse coopers but first we hit it hard and move right to the breaking news related to bret's that let's go. british prime minister theresa may says she will carry on and see the brics that process to its end after the resignation today of four cabinet members including her brecht's that minister dominic robb the prime minister held a news conference earlier amid reports of internal party challenges to her leadership and acknowledged their resignations while insisting that her deal was best for the u.k. and the e.u. here's what she had to say. my approach throughout has been to put the national interest pst i don't judge harshly those of my colleagues who seek to do the same but you reach a different conclusion they must do what they believe to be right just as i do i'm

sorry that they've chosen to leave the government and i thank them for their service ms maes leadership was criticised by opposition labor party's shadow bracks secretary and the leader of the far right u.k. independence party who says she could be out of power within the week here's that i think all the prime minister needs to do is to reflect on it listen to what parliament has to say and adjust her approach because she's she's not going to get this deal which is not a good deal through parliament and i wouldn't be surprised if she's not gone by next week as prime minister because it's difficult to see how she can survive this she's come up with this withdrawal agreement and nobody wants it doesn't satisfy the remain as who don't want to leave anyway and it doesn't satisfy the leavers. for more we're joined by bracks expert and door u.s. u.k. citizen the c.e.o. strong marco report rich hilary welcome it's been an interesting forty eight hours since you gave us that last update what's your take on what's the current circumstances.
