would leave the customs union. the next two says otherwise my right or her friend said that she would move the integrity of the united kingdom the whole protocol says otherwise my right honorable friend so that we would be our two jurisdiction of the european court of justice also one hundred some to fall says otherwise 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 i didn't see in. the national interest and we can only secure it if we unite behind the agreement reached in cabinet yesterday it's very hard to see her staying perhaps even beyond the weekend it's been a series of cabinet resignations government minister resignations parliamentary private secretary resignations even the vice chairman of the conservative party
1:05 am
itself has resigned saw it's very hard to see how someone who is dug in behind a great deal which seems to be almost friendless this is a failure is an orphan and success has a thousand parents world this breaks that deal look very much like an orphan to me today 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 because under it we don't really leave so no one's going to be happy about this i don't believe she can get it through parliament and of course it also has to come through the european parliament ukip any piece will vote against it i think other groups will vote against it here so i'd be surprised if it actually got through this parliament either people are deserted the tory party i've seen on twitter people tearing up their cards and taking photographs so this deal doesn't actually satisfy any body plenty of drama in

1:08 am
in fact they're talking about what's happening in that we're not watching it it's fair to say that right now. everyone's talking about it without having read it a little bit like the bible. for him he. sees a once the back story well i'm not sure. what's the mike stone. excuse me what's not an either. or what is it you can only really think of my job to ask the questions. i'm still wondering what's going on what that phone number well in case you were doing just that last part the box stopped what is it it's to prevent a hard border between the republic of ireland and northern ireland and more on that can be found in r.t. dot com. now newly declassified documents reveal the cia

program to develop a so-called truth serum it involves drugging prisoners who are able to withstand other interrogation techniques. project medication was of previously undisclosed element of this program in which in addition to the physical and psychological torture that the cia was engaged in several doctors decided to try to figure out whether they could also find some kind of truth serum that they would use against people's will to inject them with and make them talk or we saw to find out a little bit more in this story a mirage those that know in the cia interrogation program it's all. it wasn't an isolated case or to an accident or oversight was government sanctioned systematic or that they were manuals instructions on how to inflict pain that's not a secret in the immediate aftermath of nine eleven we tortured some folks see
1:10 am
torture isn't only frowned upon because it's evil vile it's also ineffective problem number one imagine the cia's surprise when those people that they were putting through hell resisted grew used to it enhanced interrogation techniques were begun within six hours these progressed from attention flaps and walling to confinement in both large about five hours and small about one hour book says and finally to the waterboard amazingly resistant to waterboard what happened was that the victims and this is problem number two adapted to suffering cia's own words the prisoners began to see certain torture procedures as escape a break from other harsher measures what a conundrum here having slapped beaten confined and water boarded these people they
1:11 am
were getting results so they opted for something new something like a truth serum problem was and this is problem number three seriously illegal there were at least two legal obstacles approved bush and his medical experimentation on prisoners and a ban on interrogation or use of mind altering drugs the question became moot since the legal department did not want to raise another issue with the department of justice problem number four revulsion cia tortures according to the torturers themselves the doctors others who were present were horrendous to watch the whole. experienced responsible medical officer did was visually and psychologically very uncomfortable for all those witnessing it the problem was so widespread and so serious that employees had to be counseled and then checked to make sure they were still all right in the head after everything they had seen and done and they began
1:12 am
only hiring people who had a stomach for torture let me be clear on what the cia doctors role was here when the cia tortures were torturing a prisoner for example by bought by waterboarding him say doctors would medically resuscitate the prisoner when he would become unconscious from too much torture what they did was allow the cia to continue torturing people over and over problem number five a lot of problems here journalists activists and juice they kept prime kept sniffing around digging up details and publicizing ever they over the government the cia they resisted see for example how the document that revealed all of these looked initially when released under the freedom of information act in two thousand and sixteen not a lot of information in it it's almost like two fingers to the press sometimes these court battles took years but they got it out eventually.
1:13 am
ancient history you might say we knew most of this plus it happened in the early two thousand lessons have been learned and this torture will never happen again. you think they said what do you think about waterboarding i said i like it a lot that i don't think it's tough enough. with you have to keep in mind that we're talking about a forty four country wide torture program. so it's a very rich complex torture machine that was put in place with obviously many hundreds of people complicit. in the torture that happened so this is
1:14 am
a high level of top levels of the. last we also military people involved in creating the wealthy and implementing seems to me a shift in that maybe people the cia and the in the federal government the security organs the people that are involved in this kind of thing it is very possible that they believe this is a way to to to achieve their goals and then and bypass the label of torture the concept of torture is to treat human beings as if they are less than less than human less than animal lesson plan that they are they are not even living creatures they they are. cogs in a wheel experiment in medically with these people it is the equivalent of torture it isn't just as dehumanizing. it seems they once butting bromance between donald trump and the money will my chrome is hitting the skids after the u.s. president last started his french counterpart on twitter back on choose they have
