that deal. prisoners take artie's wine challenge we asked them to blind test american and french reds after donald trump claims u.s. brands are just as good. put on i would say our pool room. pretty only big much with all of it. that's joining us this evening this is our team today. the new york times has released the film claiming the soviet union lost a disinfo mission campaign to ted the west parts and i guess the of takes a closer look at this supposed russian obsession with fake news. the seven commandments of fake news that come on earth click big headlines were not this would be

a masterpiece of. cold war style missions in the american heartland twenty sixteen the same techniques same region even. the same trade. great production value music showing in their opinion how russian this information evolved from the cold war the coming year if it was evaluated on how many propose to do soon promotion of versions of the. quick disclaimer this is an opinion piece so you can bug the new york times about factual inaccuracy as which seemed to make up the bulk of this series for one the defected spy that gave the interview and confirmed all of this never even worked at the k.g.b. he fled from czechoslovakia which wasn't even part of the u.s.s.r. putin that started funding something called the internet research agency this is

serious said who was the proof how are her hold on i forget opinion piece. well you know it's just like. your opinion the center piece in the k.g.b.'s seven commandments on fake news find a crack in society create a lie so big nobody would believe that it was made up wrap it in the kernel of truth conceal your hand as if the story came from someone else find a useful idiot deny everything and play the long game inevitably of course we get in on rabble mention isn't it nice to have your own t.v. show wow that does it it got us stellar journalism mit except it's you know. i have this nagging feeling this doubt the k.g.b. playbook that they claim to have exposed to fits one story even better to this

probably new york times style commandment one the crack in society donald trump new york times is personal arch enemy check commandment to the outlandish lie donald trump the president of the united states of america is a russian spy czech commom and three a sprinkle of truth everyone moves donald trump met with the russians he's been to moscow checks out c'mon meant for concealed go hand the anonymous sources unnamed officials political experts they all seem to spend more time talking to the press than doing anything else check commandment five find the useful idiots hope come on this is too easy his opponents will believe anything about trump remember the secret dossier that said he hide who gets to peel in

a bed check commandment six deny everything check we didn't reveal anybody reported c.n.n. or about as he did when you're going you're going to be unless you want went first now we're going to be you know when c.n.n. did come on and seven play the long game that's what they've been doing the endless cycle of stories about russian hackers speak news invasions aggression it's been loam all right seven commandments have been followed faith is strong father and fake news heaven hallowed be thy name you can it's come you news be done on earth as on the internet men. renowned across the world so when donald trump claimed america's attempt to police just as good but left a sour taste in many french mouths we decided to put prisons to the test to see if

the president should swallow his words as donald trump thrashed out at france's president this week on twitter he also took aim at what he saw as unfair trade practices when it comes to wine tariffs way said the french who are very precious about that wine they don't said both countries made excellent wine but france made it very hard for the u.s. to sell its wines to the country and charges big tariffs so that got us thinking who makes the better wine the us all fronts it's time for battle of the new world wine this is the old and the judges it's the parisians. for silly me you. know. to reduce residue of a false a. mercy. because you know.

the whole thing coming. down i would say our pool room. would be we would. be in the big city muscle of it. where. it is it's don't look very much. and there are a. little bit. more. in the week. but the bank will. so the verdict is in hand it's pretty clear parisians preferred the wind from the us or her well maybe for once the door all house been vindicated as the wind from his country seems to have trumped that from france so

on this occasion from paris we admit defeat but nevertheless we will always weighs a gloss and say so and say charlotte even ski r.t. paris. is battling for her political future after almost two dozen m.p.'s from her ruling conservative party went public with letters of no confidence to lawmakers call for the british prime minister to go over her controversial draft regs a deal announced on thursday nevertheless the beleaguered premier insists parliament should get behind the agreement 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 and it is in the national interest and we can only secure it if we unite behind the agreement reached in cabin it yesterday. with the march twenty nine hundred briggs

it deadline looming may is coming under increasing pressure to secure concessions from the european union but on thursday the prime minister suffered yet another difficult day in office after her latest divorce plans triggered a wave of resignations and talk of a no confidence vote she also suffered a the riyadh grilling in parliament by and pace we can choose to leave with no deal we could risk no breaks it is all we can say. it i. or we can choose to unite and support the best deal that could be negotiated this deal the withdrawal agreements and the outline political. represents a huge and damaging failure prime minister comes before us today trying to sell us to deal that is already dead in the water i'm almost tempted to ask if one of the members opposite will put their hands up if they actually do support prime minister

and the senate proposal i want my road on a vote for zero so that we would leave the customs union. the next two says otherwise my right of a friend so that she would move the integrity of the united kingdom the whole protocol so as all that was my right honorable frode so that we would be out of the jurisdiction of the european court of justice article one hundred seventy four says otherwise. unscared emeritus professor of international history at the london school of economics joins me on the line now very good evening to you we could we've had the background to this story but some very new information and you briggs the secretary has been named as steve barclay what will he bring to the challenge that lies ahead. probably nothing toll no dinners as you're bottom he's an arch loyalist of the prime minister he's never ever voted against the government he's in london quantity except as

a kind of reliable. soldier he's he has a really good very much of a job to do because it was drawn to agreements already been signed and delivered. another document on the future relationship between britain and europe which is still to be fleshed out but a lot of that sort of have been drafted. and it's very unclear whether he'll have any input into the tools. he has really come into the job to be in don the prime minister that took personal charge of negotiations with the europe some time ago she sidelined the ministers who were supposed to be responsible both of whom resigned both his previous sessions have resigned in disgust because there was sidelined and i do think there's very much room to do it all except you know answer a few questions in parliament. about

a couple dozen members of may's own party have submitted letters of no confidence do you think she can ride this out or is a leadership contest at this point inevitable. i think it's probably inevitable. the whips the people who control the party voting for the prime minister they've all been recalled to london today which makes a do because if. you are a contest as. in the offing so i expect it will be announced today or monday the will be a leadership contest or they'll be a vote of confidence in her first if she wins that she's safe for another year if she loses it then some deals or other candidates will emerge and one of them will become prime minister. if that was to happen what on earth happens to bragg's it because she was briggs it means briggs it is obviously what she's wanted all the way along if you've got someone replacing a board happens to bragg's it does it mean that there could be

a change of direction. will the tried of a change in direction the european union is saying the board offer any different deal they'll be an impossibly a standoff and the new prime minister will see all right no deal and britain will leave the european union without a deal. and that might force the european union to think again. though there will be a complete stand off the new prime minister will say he or she wants changes the european union the first instance will probably say we're not interested in making changes and then one of them will blink or they'll be no deal the tool alan appreciate you coming on great to speak out and scared is my guest emeritus professor of international history at london school of economics thanks so much.

a new children's toy aimed at kids aged five and up that's going on sale in the united states has raised concern critics say that it brings the political divisions in america right into the kindergarten are these nikki aaron looks at whether amid this time of heightened sensitivities people are too easily triggered it. in these extraordinary top see turvy times one would hope that the lives of our kids could at least for now remain innocent and protected from the political craziness but think again this christmas one conservative website would like your children to build the wall of the law you know. and not just any wall but one that will keep your country safe as a mob yes a mob of ten thousand migrants march across mexico untoward to the border sounds

you can't afford it anyway forget about passing go because you don't make money you just collect experiences like sleeping on your friend's couch or riveting of a can be stroke mr monopoly also got a make over taking a selfie with a participation medal but company insists that the game is aimed at adults something to chuckle about on christmas morning with uncle john but spoof or not the outrage has been relentless. so it turns out we could have called classic monopoly boom a monopoly all along has a bunch of money you have no debt everything is affordable and you can go straight from starting out in life to a rich british state mogul with no formal education you are aware that student debt and the rising cost of rent is crippling the economy talking about it a ya dick but then what are we to judge what's acceptable for kids to play with some point out that there is that old crow playing with only realistic female role models like barbie and

protesters gathered amid the reported cease fire with israel however have already been reports of violence with israeli defense forces have been happening for seven months during protests known as the great march of palestinians are demanding the right to return to lands they say have been illegally occupied by israel since more than two hundred. palestinians have been killed thousands more injured the i.d.f. denies it deliberately target civilians. the number of those missing in the deadly wildfires that continue to sweep through the united states in particular region of california has now doubled to more than six hundred the inferno has already claimed at least sixty three lives amid that grim update cooler weather helped firefighters to suppress the blaze is the most destructive fire in the state's history has destroyed nearly twelve thousand buildings in california firefighters are battling two major epicenters almost two hundred forty thousand acres have been torched

local authorities stress that the number of missing is likely to change. the russian defense minister has drawn attention to thousands of militants living in a huge syrian refugee camp where they say living conditions are dire and the terrorists going to probably gain easy access. rick brown refugee camp is in an extremely difficult humanitarian situation the total number of people in it is about fifty thousand of which about six thousand are militants controlled by the u.s. . michel gondry from a discuss the situation at the camp with our correspondent river national. power on earth are they getting to these refugee camps is it that easy for the militants to get inside it is not easy but you have to remember that it's very hard to detect them once the militants raise his weapon he looks like not very severely and and plus you have to remember that our flows in flows of people stream inane and you have named time to check their documents and you also heard from russia that they keys that these militants are u.s.

backed and this camp is situated in the territory in the southern part of syria border in jordan that is under control of u.s. military. ok we know the officials are saying a russian officials that they believe six thousand militants about this camp how would they know that i would they come to this figure is not on the russian side that is claiming that to run militants inside this camp we heard that from the u.s. embassy as well that there are some i say scrape and had the looser group extremist groups members hiding in they scanned the news in the surveilling and displaced people from stay where as a human shield it's really unclear whether they have weapons where they're armed or

not but the thing is that these people are of a certain background what is the situation like inside this camp pretty dire by all accounts oh yeah from what we hear from russians defense ministry the situation is simply dramatic health care there are five medical facilities opened on the territory of these camps and they provide all of them very limited services at a very high price and the same for forty so-called pharmacies so you may think it should be free of charge but it's. not so expensive and all the people can afford this treatment and un offer medical services free of charge in neighboring jordan but people from the can cannot leave the camp unless they pay a fee to those who control this camp the militants that the russian general mentioned so again not everybody can afford that and this is why we hear about cases like human traffic where prostitution including sex with minors and gender inequality all those terrible cases

a violation of human rise aid agencies have been sending aid to me just last month hold back she arrived we know what happened to that though it was easy to distribute it all this is the thing that international humanitarian aid find its way to the can but it ends up in the hands of those who control things can those militants and it's a terrible situation in russia says that since the camp on the territory controlled by the u.s. military america is responsible for those terrible things happening inside the camp and they want of course the international community is just stepping to react somehow. a group of members of angela merkel's youth party have sparked outrage of berlin after being caught singing nazi era song and shouting homophobic slurs incident allegedly took place in a bar earlier this month on the anniversary of the infamous nine hundred thirty

a member of germany's the left party who says the internet only adds shame to one of the country's darkest chapters. that's a german i'm disgusted by the way here and the discredited everything that people did after the were all to pray that english nazi soldiers marching into our unless the see you have a great house ready to live is always that more right and right wing extremist tendencies. but it was always balanced by a liberal liberal awful a huge whig and if you look at the seaview in general and it's not an isolated incident at all it's only wholly the knobs and nazi ideology major it is. the minute of silence that day to commemorate the people that were violated by the nazis it's a day off. with

a promise to need 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 labor's. for more we're joined by brad expert a dual u.s. u.k. citizen the c.e.o. strong mark rich hilary welcome it's been an interesting forty eight hours since you gave us that last update what your take on what's the current circumstances well i will say that interesting is an understatement yes it is being quite fractious and as we predicted you know theresa may has a tough road to hoe and the reason is because she's not satisfying the labor rights she's not satisfying those that wanted to remain and she's not satisfying the brics it is remember she was a remain
