the president. gets underway in. the biggest day this referendum. british. prime minister. over these next. four hours give this deal a second yet we've seen

a divided government deliver a bosch withdrawal deal with nothing more than a outline for what our future relationship with the e.u. will be when the history books are written people will look at the decision. during the past two years of shambolic negotiations the prime minister has failed to listen. we should to the british people and get on with building a brighter future for our country but. the state of. the government is in just the right age korea is a prime minister's deal is rejected tomorrow it's time for a general election it's time to come. and it seems that theresa may won't gain a lot of support for the deal from her own conservative party in fact some of our

m.p.'s operated made it clear they will reject it. and i see a chart cannot gives us a round up of events leading up to today's big vote. today could make or break what has become teresa mayes life mission delivering on what the british people voted for the twenty sixth the referendum the house of commons votes on the british prime minister's brags that if it gets their backing the u.k. will finally be able to get on with it as they say after more than two years of vision and confrontation about what perhaps it is meant to look like but if lots of men is in big trouble and most predict that m.p.'s will be showing to recent days deal the door today's night is nothing more than a repetition of exactly the same position that was pulled more than one months ago is dead is the deadest downing street has already had to postpone the vote on her deal in december in order to avoid the humiliation of defeat and we will therefore defer the co-chair for tomorrow. and not to proceed to divide the house at this

time what followed was a slap in the face at home a vote of confidence triggered by her own conservative party mate may have survived but passions continue to boil following this but we now need to get on with the job of delivering bricks it for the british people may travel back to brussels for some extra support but didn't quite get it the e.u. made it clear there will be no reading goshi ation on the withdrawal agreement only clarifications at the shore and says it's not open for you to add insult to injury reports were flying around that the president of the european commission was calling me names and i was on the grass you know if they haven't checked. so they know it's. fast forward to today little has changed what's continued to pile up though is criticism m.p.'s have decided that means government will have three days if the deal is rejected to come up with plan b.

a plan to resubmit is likely not to have opposition leader jeremy corbyn once a general election as a way out of the deadlock the government is in disarray. right it's time for a general election it's time for a new government but despite the resistance made continues to insist that her offer is the best one possible saying not supporting her deal would lead to a new deal brock's it for new cracks if at all while no deal remains a serious risk having observed events at westminster over the last seven days it's not my judgment that the more likely outcome is a paralysis in parliament that risks there being no bret's it but isn't that something that so many politicians had preferred all along anyway with some already laying the groundwork for a second referendum what else can we possibly. do the british public we had a case here it's up to get back. to reconsider this brics it

is a cause a trip a swindle a fruit a deception that will most of those people that promise to help you know why we bothering to leave and when we leave we're still subject to all the rules and paying in cash and all of this kind of thing freedom of movement but we have no say over it it's the votes cast on tuesday evening that will indicate which direction the ship sailing in unchartered waters will head towards next and if they see it you're going to r.t. london one pregnant m.p. from the u.k.'s labor party has postponed a says area and section to enable herself to take part in this crucial part. if by some and has the role given one day later than the doctors advised but it's a rolled with a better chance of a strong relationship between britain and europe then that's worth fighting for. nathan gill the u.k. politician an m.e.p. from wales things remain m.p.'s are doing everything possible to stop the from happening. she is the prime minister over

a remain in the vast majority of m.p.'s who actually remain that is so if she's telling them if they don't back a deal they will be no brakes it is they're not going to deal she's not going to persuade them to do so it said very clearly on the ballot paper to stay in the e.u. or to leave they said nothing about arranging the deal is said nothing about truth in the article fifteen said nothing about any of these delaying tactics in which the remain as a trying to galvanize the supports and try and somehow grasping with their fingernails to stay within the e.u. when the british people were very clear about what they wanted and the reality it was five hundred m.p.'s votes it would trigger a fifty fifty say very clearly that it is even a deal that is. we would leave without a deal and there is no option in there no so i'm not sure where she's coming from.

now where protesting school teachers have clashed with the riot police over a proposed new hiring system with tensions running high tear gas and bottoms were used to disperse the crowd. the violence took place right alongside the parliament protesters in fact tried to force their way into the parliament but police just about managed to push them back no arrests no injuries reported but to protest just one house on friday that's when the demonstration first got going.

after months of violent protests all across france president emanuel is trying to engage the nation in a movement with cynicism by his political foes who use initiated a twelve week public consultation to address the issues that have been spurring the yellow vest protest movement. of course is the right one and we're not going to change it just because the wind is poor weak. i will not concede anything to those who want to struction and disorder. at least. i take

my share of responsibility. as france begins a nationwide form of group therapy president hopes he can find solutions to quell the anger of the yellow fest movement in doing so he's taken a leaf out of the book of the sixteenth he used a similar method to try and pull cold water on popular discontent with the french media drawing comparisons to how the french revolution began to bubble away it's not the first time that much corn has been likened to a king with these monarchical style of leadership and that seems to see through the letter he's written to citizens about his national debate for louis that debate

ended in a revolution will it be different this time around for me there is no ban. this you we were interviewing everything which is normal in a democracy but at least will show we're a people who are not afraid of talking exchanging debating not corn has promised that he will listen to all opinions but he's already come under fire for opposition politicians who've described the debates as a diversion a big debate a big diversion it's like redoing the presidential debate but the government is fixing the outcome the bait yes of course but when it comes to this big debate we don't know who's organizing it the topics are limited and before it even starts the government is announcing that it will adopt a radical policy. one

hopes this big debate focusing around four themes will be a turning point and though he says he listened to new ideas he's also been crystal clear that the core economic reforms that he's already instigated it's just scrapping a wealth tax won't be reversed the debates are not an opportunity for people to offload all their frustrations nor are we questioning what we've done in the past eighteen months we're not replaying the election many protesters see the whole debate as no more than a masquerade ball look we don't care about the national debate because we know it won't change anything that really many has the administration has a used tear gas against protesters this national debate is like sleeping gas you know pop was out in a cry and suggested a national debate oh we know it's useless because the government says they won't review anything that's been done in the last eighteen months and there appears to

be a real apathy for this initiative with one poll suggesting that only forty one percent of respondents saying that they would even take parts. it wasn't just louis the sixteenth two faced his greatest challenge when the french took to the streets the fifth republic's pounded to also found his position untenable following the riots in sixty eight and with the yellow vests still calling for corns resignation it appears that this national debate may not be enough to heal the wounds of a country so deeply divided. auty paris. us democrats are reportedly preparing subpoenas for donald trump's interpreters who worked on his meetings with a lot of media so over concerns that the american president is concealing nationally significant information if i had a choice i'd rather not do that with the with the interpreters but we may have no

choice we'll have to see down down the road what happens but we want to get to the truth it comes after the washington post reported that trump went to extraordinary lengths to conceal the content of his meetings with the russian president allegedly keeping the notes his interpreter had made other articles published at the weekend suggested that might actually be a genuine russian asset the us president was quick to react i never work for russia you know that is are better than anybody i never worked for russia not only did i never work for russia i think it's a disgrace that you even asked that question because it's a whole big fat hole it's just the whole trump also lashed out at the media saying it's getting crazy every single day another big story this weekend was the inquiry opened by the f.b.i. on whether trump was secretly working on behalf of russia and said the probe was initiated off the trump fired f.b.i. chief james coburn last year so the us president had his say on this as well. so

the people doing the gauges were people that have been born that are known as down there i guess you could say dirty cop so when you say should i have confidence in the f.b.i. or zealots it's a disease when i see four and i see all of these people when i see lisa and her lover and there's so says that's just sad you see what they said about me having nothing to do with us to go to the election is next year so what the republicans and other people going to be asking is why don't you just wait and get him out the old fashioned way by beating him by coming up with somebody better than actually the absence of what this thing is because in this froth and in this frenetic this move to say impeach impeach i respect release him again i don't think anybody really understand what impeachment means the american public is complete and

totally tone deaf at this point by virtue of this incessant russian collusion russians buying russian does. the american public it doesn't make any sense nor we've heard a big cheer waited to it anything new anyway of russian involvement he american public has have said said enough with this police give us a new country maybe make it chinese just to mix it up a little bit americans are tone deaf when it comes to everything and anything russian. clashes erupted in chile as capital where people took to the streets to protest the killing of a young man by put things. i don't know your. local authorities used water cannon and detained five demonstrators as they tried to block the road in front of the aaa and president's official residence people got a daughter a young indigenous my picture was killed by police and. sources say this was during

an open. local coffee but off the video evidence of the shooting was destroyed several officials resigned and police officers involved in the killing five. still to come here on the program on an israeli army chief of staff who's just left his post has finally admitted that tel aviv has been shipping weapons to militants in syria something the long denied until now a story just. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s.

has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you want to be ultra rich eight point six percent market share thirty percent one of your some with four hundred to five hundred three per circuit for sure and one rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building two point one billion dollars a i industrials. but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one one doesn't show you know or commit to one in only. nearly twenty posture of moscow the outgoing chief of staff of the israeli defense

forces has for the first time acknowledged that israel has been supplying militants in syria with weapons something that's long been denied a middle east correspondent paula slayer investigates he also said that israel has been supplying weapons to syrian forces fighting against the syrian president bashar assad and that these weapons have been for the frame. was the idea of the past three years and a century these comments from her school the beans on what until now has been a poorly guarded secret he also said that israel began attacking the re-union construct a back injury. at the west systematic and that was happening beneath the radar in january twentieth seventeen would begin attacking the infrastructure they run into a building in syria the critical mass was from when to seventeen would begin attacking systematically a number of times each week without making any statements beneath the radar this is

not the first time this role has been taking so nail that israel has been supporting rebel fighters against a side that can support the last jurgens waiting to cleanse forces of course the jerusalem post newspaper to take on an article in which it said that israel was supporting their web site has in november last year there were also reports that a form a israeli defense minister had met with syrian rebels and earlier the wall street journal also published a report in which it said that israel was providing syrian rebels with cash now despite all of this israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has always insisted that israel is not in any way involved in syria. we do not interfere in this terribly bloody conflict we do however provide humanitarian aid to young boys and girls it is expensive but we will continue to invest in the israeli defense forces has so far not publicly commented on these comments although its twitter page is full of people wishing the outgoing. a based on. well years of

conflict in syria have left scars all over the country and its people many of our citizens are still having to fight for and rebuild their lives here is the story of one small boy. my friend and i were playing ball when we found something in our backyard we didn't know it was a mortar shell started to play with it then we decided to put it in the basement and that's when the explosion happened. a few minutes friend died in that explosion so my son got multiple injuries and doctors had to amputate one of his legs there was a risk he would lose the others i didn't know what to do. in the hospital my trash dr healy.

a canadian data analytics firm has accused the us media of having a pro israel bias a new study published by four sixteen labs says u.s. outlets routinely depict israel in a much more favorable light and palestine. now looks at how this alleged bias might be making life difficult for u.s. politicians if you want to be a mainstream politician being pro palestinian or anti israel is not your best option ah. this woman tulsi gabbert was attacked after she announced that she was running for president in two thousand and twenty because she had criticized israel's use of live ammunition against gaza protesters among other things on it. for support for israel and i consider her a friend and good woman but she is dead wrong on assad and criticism of israel and

gaza was her mass terrorists who israel attacked and it's not enough to just support israel but you have to want those who don't support israel to be punished senator marco rubio is going after a newly elected congresswoman simply because he had voted against a law that would penalize those who boycott israel and it's not just democrats who catch flack if they don't toe the tell of eve line rand paul a republican is facing away the attack ads congress wants to authorize key military support to keep israel safe president trump strongly supports that but not rand paul rand paul stand with israel or will you stand in the way if you want to be successful in politics follow the lead of new york city mayor bill de blasio he actually went as far as saying that being pro israel is part of his job and this is what i do as mayor it's a sacred responsibility to speak up for and defend the state of israel there is no

closer relationship on earth literally no closer relationship than that between new york city and the state of israel and when it comes to media coverage of israel palestine conflicts well it's not exactly balanced new research shows that for the last fifty years pro israeli stories have been amplified in american media the large gap in israel centric headlines over palestinian ones was four to one in favor of israeli stories israeli perspectives and narratives find greater space in the american media compared to those of palestinians now the authors don't even see this imbalance is a problem they think it's just natural that u.s. media would follow us foreign policy. critically this appears to be a systemic problem in coverage rather than a result of deliberate planned bias instead this has likely more to do with what scholars allude to as the us media's affinity to broadly align and support their government's foreign policy objectives but despite the media imbalance the us

public is becoming less and less favorable to israel a new poll shows that thirty eight percent of americans think that israel has too much influence in american politics and that's fifty five percent among democrats so it looks like the gap between the u.s. public and mainstream media coverage is growing. r.t. new york. people are being killed in one hundred thirteen injured including children after a large explosion in the afghan capital a truck bomb blew up near a rest and recovery center for foreign workers in the east of the city the taliban says it was behind the attack in november another attack took the lives of ten british security contractors a taliban militants have been conducting near daily attacks on security personnel in the country the latest blast comes as the u.s. peace envoy visits that region officials have confirmed that several civilian buildings were damaged by the explosion and this is how some of the victims

describe the incident. uppish misha the mc i was going home on my point can following the same truck when suddenly it moved in the wrong direction to ease the foreigners camp and i shouted at him saying what kind of dr ro you move in the right direction of the route when i moved like twenty meters the explosion took place and i was down on the floor in a second i was standing on my praying that and it was around six fifty five pm when i stood for praying while i was praying all of a sudden a huge explosion occurred at first i didn't realize it was only after that i saw the whole roof had fallen on top of us and that just about wraps up the program for this hour here on our international though hour by hour we go with the top worldwide. news headlines here on this channel we are back in half an hour.

as your health care executive or bank your cost of getting a gift from the federal government of millions hundreds of millions trillions of dollars if you're not part of that cobol you are the one paying for it yes and that's why there's a lot of social unrest that's the best movement in france and around the world it's the global insurrection against banker occupation is coming to america in twenty nineteen seconds or yell that's in your torch and let's party because it's all about. you know what was you know my point i wanted to. get. your for your height oh i lost his boss because. we don't have any.

china trade deficit conflict lead our global report as china post a record a record trade surplus with the united states even as chinese exports overall fell to their lowest monthly level in two years the latest figures from china's customs authorities show that in twenty eighteen the year president donald trump opted to hit china with new tariffs to compel change in terms of trade china's trade surplus with the u.s. increased by seventeen percent reaching a record level of three hundred twenty three billion dollars as dr phil might say here in the u.s. how's that trade stuff working out for you mr president the answer is not to well of course the picture changes though when we pull back the frame for a broader view as the sum of chinese exports to all other nations fell by four percent year over year for the month of december of twenty eighteen the.
