prime minister faces a no confidence vote after suffering the biggest. modern british history with. a vision of. a men's shaving
2:01 am
a product. of the me to the movement has inspired all sorts of ridicule. it's called toxic masculinity. how do you hear these presumptuous as presumptuous as. evil by nature in fact. is focusing on the positives that actually. generalize men for being sexual is a. u.s. media are accused of being in cahoots with the f.b.i. after the latest round of. headline. from moscow this is r.t. international a very warm welcome to you. in the most important vote since the. of the referendum
2:02 am
and twenty sixteen the u.k.'s parliament has overwhelmingly rejected to receive mazie e.u. divorce deal the prime minister lost by a whopping margin of two hundred thirty votes it is the biggest defeat of a government in modern british history this is significant. that any of us will. this is a catastrophic defeat for this government great one hundred years is humiliating defeat for the government want. to. share in the playground you. must surely see the inevitable coming scotland european union is more popular in the united kingdom and the prime minister should be clear that the house does not support this deal but. tells us nothing about what it does support now tabled
2:03 am
of no confidence. while m.p.'s were voting inside hundreds of people from both the pro e.u. and probe gathered outside the houses of parliament plunging the area into a cut. police deployed extra forces to the area but the atmosphere remained calm and peaceful the majority of people on both sides wanted mase deal to be voted down no deal hoping the vote would stall the bricks and bowl finally rolling while many remain just crossed it would trigger a second referendum. but i believe that you could right. now and just because she voted one doesn't mean you can reflect on how maybe more options it is binary
2:04 am
and i'll sign it i think that people have the right to change their minds and that most people don't support rice anymore. i did think it was people were promised all sorts of things in twenty sixteen which have not been delivered which were incapable of being delivered by the leavers obvious parliamentary trouncing out to reason may has another headache she's now facing a vote of no confidence boyko assesses the possible outcomes. bill is in tatters and it looks like in relation to the break that agreement it's back to square one is for to raise them a there is a rather more pressing issue now and that is that she's got to see your for another leadership challenge now this time it's the leader of the opposition party labor jeremy corbyn immediately after to resume a last attempt regs he said that he tabled
2:05 am
a motion of no confidence in the prime minister so for the entire day they're going to be debating whether they've got confidence into reason may's leadership and at the end of the day it will be put to a vote now it looks as though it's reason they will be able to see off this leadership challenge of course many of us will remember that she managed to see off the leadership challenge from within her own party just at the end of last year so it's expected that all her road conservative politicians will support her otherwise they'll risk a labor government which is something that despite all their disagreements they can all agree that they don't want and also the democratic party of northern ireland which supports to reason may they have a confidence and supply agreement in parliament they have also said that they will support to reason may in that vote so she will then need to get back to the issue of salvaging this bragg's it deal and at the same time a lot of all the full says
2:06 am
a coming into play europe was also eagerly awaiting the outcome of the vote with the e.u. politicians quick to react spain austria and the czech republic so their governments were ready for any type of bricks at all the french president says that the e.u. is highly unlikely to make any further concessions. the u.k. is heading towards a new deal despite there being no agreement it scares everybody the first loses some of the british people maybe we can improve on one or two points. i don't really believe that because we went as far as we could in the existing agreement and just in order to try and solve a problem of british internal politics we want not defend the interests of europeans but. the president of the european council donald suggested that the u.k. simply stay in the e.u. after a major defeat the president of the european commission says he regrets the results and wants the u.k. to clarify what it's planning to do next other senior officials have also reacted
2:07 am
of course if that proposal goes into direction of a more deep relationship with the european union we are ready to do so we are not against this on the on the on the country secondly. what what we don't want is that this mess in british politics is now transfer that and importance in european politics it's not for the u.k. to. the next steps. in our side we really remain united and determined to reach a deal to stick to our agreement. we have that the new mines of march and easy to make proposals that we can come to a deal when we come closer to the british professor at the london school of economics alan scared broadcaster jonathan fryer thing for the future of brecht's it is very. it is a model it is
2:08 am
a fiasco it's all largely the prime minister's fault since she's deliberately go ahead with the plan which for months everybody knew wasn't going to work and now she's faced with the consequences but it will take a couple of weeks before the atmosphere clears up and we've got any indication at all of where would like to go deal was very unpopular among the british people opinion polls gave it about twenty percent support eighty percent of the cuts seventy eighty percent of the country were against it the big question really which has to be answered is not a reason a big question is what is the labor party going to doing because jeremy coolies being very ambiguous. from a good position is he has suggested repeatedly that he could bring about a new label bragg's good for jobs and good for everybody despite the fact you said there is not going to be another do you so very interesting to see if he changes
2:09 am
his mind on. a major brand of men's shaving products facing a backlash over his latest promotional video the target audience has apparently been left to unimpressed by the efforts of gillette to respond to the meet to movement the number of dislikes under the video on you tube far outweighing the likes. against actually. is this the best a man can get. is it is plain going on far too.
2:10 am
we put the issues raised by this add up for debate with steve malzberg a t.v. host and political commentator and other guests. why is that a bad thing to highlight the best way the best version of yourself whether you're a male or you're a female what's wrong with highlighting the best version of the what's wrong with inspiring men to be the best men that they can be that i don't see anything wrong with that and i think they should carry on doing at this video shows the masses of men as he will and the few trying to stop them and by the way boys will be boys there's nothing wrong with
2:11 am
a boys getting in the scuffles with the boys i did it in my youth all my friends did it we grew up just fine these days if a boy you know puts. it for seven eight years old six years old this is a girl on the cheek instantly he's suspended from school he has a blot on his record for like if he goes like this bang bang in a schoolyard maybe you know innocently a five or six years old he's suspended this is crazy stuff of course that will be somebody that we boys but what does that mean what does it mean are we allowing mental always have fights in the street do we condoning it is ok but he's a boy so it's ok to fight it's ok to do this in u.k. especially with not being such a high rate we condoning it by saying oh no it's ok but it will be boys it's ok to be violent it's ok to be aggressive no it's ok to not be aggressive it doesn't it doesn't affect your masculinity it doesn't demean your method in c. and if you are threatened by this by this as if your masculinity is threatened then
2:12 am
you have to question what you what masculinity means to you how dare. you so presumptive as presumptuous as to imply that men are evil by nature and boys are evil by nature and need them to lecture to us to us males otherwise they're going to turn into homophobes it and bring people up and rake people and abuse people this is. not a complete to think. think it's absolutely fantastic that focusing on the positives there's actually always a lot of people that generalize men for being sexual predators awful being in eighty's and with the attitudes but in fact. is focusing on the positives there was actually in fact some men out there doing the right thing presenting it as if the majority of men are being stopped and by these these few good men who somehow overcame their masculinity at birth and they've developed into the the keepers of
2:13 am
the majority of men who are masculine the overwhelming majority of men by sure are going to do the right thing. but no traumas forcing a number of investigations into alleged ties with russia at the weekend it was revealed the f.b.i. started its probe the moment he entered office this has led to some to suspect a different kind of collusion as caleb mufon explains. it's been a leak to the media that during the presidential campaign the f.b.i. investigated donald trump to see if he was working for the russians now the f.b.i. investigation found nothing however the fact that it even took place is being described as a scandal within itself but the reality is that the f.b.i. has a long history of looking into top u.s. government officials and their ties to the rue skis for example they were all over vice president henry wallace when he called for
2:14 am
a more peaceful approach to the soviets the real peace treaty we now need is between the united states and russia on our parts we should recognize that we have no more business in the political affairs of eastern europe than russia has in the political affairs of latin america western europe and the united states at that time the mainstream media dragged him through the mud and let's not forget george mcgovern the liberal senator who was investigated also by the f.b.i. we all know that for years liberals and progressives were called soft on communism in moscow to agent this charge was even leveled against dr martin luther king jr they investigated henry wallace after vice president they tried to smear him as a communist wallace was condemned and seen as a threat not to the american people and to national security but to the security of the interests of these powerful people for whom the agencies work and not for the american people but here's the kicker what's different is that these investigations never came to light they were kept out of the public eye until documents were
2:15 am
released two years later but what seems to be revealed here is the close relationship between the intelligence agencies and the press and b c editor william arkin recently resigned in protest of the fact that the way he sees it american media is essentially just being used by intelligence agencies the generals and the national security leadership that runs the country and now also has the commentators in the analysts who populate the news media really are not people who we can look to as saying while they won a war they they avoided a war they achieve some magnificent. jack in fact they are the custodians and the architects of perpetual warfare it's much more open and that's very chilling actually journalists are sucked in to want to be close to those in power and it's become really taking dictation in many ways of whatever government tells them the vetting process the challenger in particular on national security issues and foreign policy now they can go right on the opens and there's no filter there's no
2:16 am
skepticism about this as we have in the past and so you've got journalists openly siding with intelligence agencies as if they have paid assets of those agencies so rather than learning anything scandalous about donald trump what we actually learned something scandalous about the mainstream media. r.t. new york so german intelligence is looking into whether the rightwing alternative for germany party is in fact extremist that story in the rest of your wednesday headlines and just. make this manufactured consent to the public will. when the ruling class is protect themselves. with the flaming.
2:17 am
lips and be the one percent. we can all middle of the room sick. room. you know world of big. and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than a. 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 truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks.

a war that must be won and evil that must be beaten through mass concerted action on a national level that. we're . all naturally the reuss felt ask program has its opponents green politics has never particular appeal to conservative republicans but the eleven page green deal plan does raise questions beyond just partisan politics some green activists of ringing the alarm saying the devil is in the details. the problem with her plan is that it you know it's the placement of committees and it's appointment of in just three and business leaders you know who knows if they have the real i think really on the side of the people business and industry leaders are really concerned with their own bottom line so who's going to be in charge
2:20 am
a fifteen person select committee with minimum accountability to vote as one target is a national small grid a high tech energy network to maximize efficiency but some see an old willian throwback behind the good intention this is really a gigantic gift telkom industry and it also allows and limited survey of citizens with a smart creative anyone can find out where you are and what you're doing if they have access to margaret and any time every single building will have to meet new standards like it or not who's defining how i define comfort and safety in the privacy of my own home the democratic national committee no thank you you know the republican national committee no thank you so huge open door she knew violate people's privacy activists also fear that an excessive role would be given to corporations and venture capitalists the plan also promises to virtually eliminate

poverty in the united states create a new banking system might even bring about full social justice and equality but just no specifics on how that's going to be achieved aside from unlimited investments or maybe has come a long way i think they would have been able to raise a lot of money and have been able to influence quote unquote influence a lot of politicians on capitol hill this is not a new thing politicians get by and so all the time they're going to use in alexandria occasion record sales because they feel like she's young she can connect to people in a different way than they will be able to so they put her out there and friends say ok we need you to pushy and big give someone your friends that are in congress to push his will on capitol hill it's very little true grassroots and mostly things that have been orchestrated for a very long time behind the scenes with the plenty of cash behind. new green focused policies are needed a.s.a.p. polls even show most voters agree with implementing the broad ideas of
2:22 am
a green deal within the next decade but in its current form with big questions on transparency and accountability and even how this would fit in with the us constitution so many this may seem less twenty thirty and more nine hundred eighty four. the right wing alternative for germany party has come under intensified monitoring it by the country's domestic intelligence agency the aim is to determine the extent to which the party is extremists now some of the party members have said this is politically motivated meantime a number of german m.p.'s have welcomed the move. here since he's the first the in try and have tea party is given the status of a test case secondly the young alternative is declared a suspicious case and thirdly the movement within the f.t. the wing is declared a suspicious case. the decision to put the a of d. under investigation is correct our democracy must protect itself from its opponents
2:23 am
even if they act under the guise of a party in a four hundred fifty page report the intelligence agency classifies the. case to investigate although it states this will not involve full on surveillance of the party however the regional youth wing of the f.t. has been put under surveillance because of suspected ties to extremists a peter best wrong party's foreign policy speaker in the bundestag says the a.f.p. supports the work of the secret services but suspects political bias. we believe. well that the sage should have the right. tools to defend themselves. we know we are facing a huge trauma the secret service is under political control in the ministry so there are now i suppose we are quite confident that they are joining or the politico has said. this is very problem on
2:24 am
case well we don't seem to hire. and also there are times of the arse watching any word of this. new york authorities have analysis that an art exhibit featuring saudi arabia is flag will be moved from its original location that of the world trade center that's off the families of nine eleven terror attack victims deemed the proximity of the artwork to ground zero as insensitive auntie america's trinity shop has reports from new york. this candy nation's art exhibit here at the world trade center campus has been making major headlines specifically for this nine foot piece of our right here wrapped in the saudi arabia flag and it's been causing serious backlash because of its location here at ground zero. the sculpture of part of an exhibit called candy nations depicts the flags of each of the g twenty countries as nine foot tall wrapped candies installed back in december the sculpture stands tall
2:25 am
right next to the oculus one of the buildings that replaced the original world trade center the installment sparking fears backlash since fifteen of the nineteen attackers on september eleventh were saudi citizens. as a result port authority officials have decided to remove the art exhibit and place it somewhere else after receiving countless complaints from social media users and local victim groups the agency said in a statement to our t.v. . we have been in contact with the nine eleven memorial and various stakeholders and in full collaboration with the artist will relocate the exhibit from its current location we believe the solution respects the unique sensitivities of the site and preserve the artistic integrity of the exhibit many of the victims' families and survivors have sued saudi arabia claiming that it helped plan the nine eleven attacks however the saudis tonight its involvement a coalition of family members of nine eleven victims and survivors said in a statement that the sculpture's presence at this site depicting the k s a kingdom
2:26 am
of saudi arabia flag is an outrage just a front to the nine eleven community and all other americans who seek justice for the attacks on our nation on september eleventh two thousand and one however not all agree and then people have been unreasonable to just blame an entire nation more interest. there's more to it than that i think. it should stay here because it's for everybody and like you said everybody you at the end were as such but what happened the exhibit which was created by french artist laurence jin keller in two thousand and eleven has been shown in twenty five countries and according to the port authority an initially garnered the support from several companies and organizations including the chanel foundation the international olympic committee and coca-cola the artist said in a statement to the observer i first created fly candy sculptures to celebrate mankind on an international level and pay tribute to people of the entire world
2:27 am
given the unique and justified sensitivities surrounding the world trade center it came to my mind to propose to remove a sculpture showcasing the flag of saudi arabia or relocate it to a less sensitive location but there is no way i can do such a thing as the flag of saudi arabia is entirely part of the g twenty just like any other candy flag of this candy nation show now the exhibit was originally supposed to stay here at ground zero for two months but the backlash port authority officials are now going to move the exhibit to. f. k. international airport some time this week reporting from ground zero trinity show those are take. just some of the top stories for this hour for this wednesday program here with international we are back soon with more of your names. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s.
