in the. financial survival. housing. oh you mean there's a downside artificially low mortgage rates don't get carried away that's cause report. who has britons to resume a rush just to conjure up a new e.u. do both deal a leak to government documents suggests a second referendum could now be on the cards. to get a new theater of war donald trump unveils a number bishop plan to put u.s.

missile defense systems that into orbit thanks russia's that born forces are put to the test in their first time to go training exercises that the year on t.v. is there to witness the dizzying action. and the celebrations lividity and follows the first level which usually gives us his unique take on the meat trade movement a big it's no longer a force for good. a very warm welcome you watching r.t. international with me. and the leaks document has shown that despite to resume a strident denials the u.k. government is considering calling

a second brags that referendum it comes after the prime minister's original e.u. divorce deal was met with a resoundingly rejection from m.p.'s. there are those who want to see no deal and those who want to see a second referendum and potentially frustrate brax it a second referendum would lead instead to further division it is my duty to deliver on the british people's instruction to leave the european union and i intend to do so a government document has been leaked outlining how long it would take for legislation to pass that would authorize the holding of a second referendum a so-called people's vote it's a one page memo and it says that it would take around seven months for that legislation to be drafted and to pass and then another twelve weeks for the electoral commission who are responsible for organizing elections here in the u.k. it would take them twelve weeks to come up with the question that would be on the

ballot paper and now that time frame which is around ten months to a year would mean that it would be impossible to hold a second referendum by march twenty ninth and that of course is the date that the u.k. would leave the news of the government they've been asked about this document and they say it's merely for illustrates of purposes and that they're not planning on proposing a second referendum it was a short paper setting out factual detail on the number of months that would be required it was produced to inform the discussion we expected this issue to be brought to the meeting it was a lister to vote early opposition is that a second referendum won't be happening and it's not just the conservatives who are on the pressure to hold that second referendum jeremy corbyn he's the leader of the labor party the leader of the opposition here in the u.k. and it's thought that up to a hundred of his own labor m.p.'s would like him to hold and put up the position that labor wants a second referendum also said made it very clear that all the options are on the

table including the public vote option which we make clear in our conference motion which was i have to remind you unanimously agree. our conference last september the european union would extend article fifty if the government requested it to hold a general election or if there was a prospect of a second referendum so you're opinion would love for britain to cancel brix it but merely to for parliament to work out what border actually should be doing with brics it two and a half years after the start date you would agree to that a new poll has found that if a second referendum were to be held a majority of voters would now choose to remain in the e.u. is the biggest surgeon support for maine's since the twenty sixteen brags that vote and his point boy kerry explains a rerun of the referendum wouldn't be without precedent. the people may have voted but the british parliament is in political turmoil over what the

u.k.'s departure from that leaves you should look like some politicians get their way whether it should happen at all to this issue but to the electorate what else can we possibly offer to the british public to get back. to reconsider this brics it is a call for deception but most of those people that promise to help you know why we bothering to leave and. still subject to all the rules over on the continent these slighted politicians will be hoping that perhaps the imperfect but stable relationship between brussels and london could be heading towards their union if a deal is impossible and no one wants no deal then who will finally have the courage to say he was the only positive solution is so if you think their people have voted then think again governments have been known to ignore

a referendum result or to. ireland learned this the hard way twice in two thousand and one after a smallish campaign irish voters rejected expanding the bloc east island effectively put a spoke in the e.u.'s wheels when it was keen to invite nations like romania and bulgaria into the club so the e.u. irish government invested in a big yes campaign and a year later the vote was rerun. but the majority of votes against the proposal. was the irish decision on the use defacto constitution the lisbon treaty suffered the same fate majority in favor of the proposal. i see deer slowed as a sign of confidence about the irish people in european union as

a sign of their desire to be all hearted members of the european union. before the break that shambles it was the greek debt crisis keeping e.u. officials are put night. in twenty fifteen the new greek prime minister staged a referendum in which greek citizens overwhelmingly rejected the e.u.'s austerity policies but brussels imposed them anyway those living in the birthplace of democracy weren't pleased with what they saw as an undemocratic process. and this one may not be related to the e.u. but it is related to britain in twenty twelve voters in the city of manchester rejected having elected mayors but a couple of years later david cameron's westminster government imposed them on the

region anyway late last year the top court ruled that brags it can be reversed unilaterally by the u.k. stressing the referendum in june twenty sixth in wasn't legally binding so technically in terms of the law the u.k. government is free to choose whatever route it wants spirit plowing ahead with gregg's it or snapping it into reverse shore stopping bragg's it would be a failure to honor the will of the people but given the political turmoil that unfolded here in the past two and a half years there has been a shift in public opinion the latest polls show that now fifty six percent of u.k. voters would say no brags it so given these circumstances there are plenty of politicians here keen to break the braggs it. and to sell it as the noble thing to do. they're armed drones space based

sensors and ground based missile detectors that's along donald trump's military wish list the u.s. president has unveiled plans for an ambitious length of america's defense capabilities that's after the pentagon published a review outlining the threats facing the country. breaks down the development we're gardeners of the term spy world's strongest men to dodge questions about a new global arms race well we may have to come to terms with reality in some kind of form it's definitely begun it is not enough to merely keep pace with our adversaries we must outpace them at every single turn we must pursue the advanced technology and research to guarantee that the united states is always several steps ahead of those who would do us harm who will always be at the forefront of everything with the us withdrawal from the anti-ballistic missile

treaty which was the cornerstone in the field of non proliferation of nuclear weapons and deterring an arms race has forced us to respond by creating new weapon systems to overcome these missile defense systems now we hear that russia has an advantage yes that's true there is no analogue of this system in the world america's just published the first review of its missile defense program in almost a decade and it besides plans to deploy twenty new ground based interceptors in alaska as well as new radars and sensors besides plans to use laser armed drones in stealth the f. thirty five jets the donald trump administration once a leap and technological development the president is keen to get a space force space is a new world striding domain. with the space force leading the way it's ultimately going to be

a very very big part of our defense and obviously. a sense. the u.s. president is talking about ok maybe not star wars but militarizing space for sure the ultimate goal is to be able to take down enemy missiles even before they leave the airspace of what the president calls rogue countries we will ensure that enemy missiles know saying sure on earth or in the skies above it won't happen regardless of the missile type or geographic origins of the attack mr trump did call out north korea and iran but in the program review you'll also find russia and china however when it comes to the whole space force idea a great deal of the tall g.'s yet to be developed so the president wanted to make sure the cash goes that way in his speech but if you thought all of this wasn't

about the nearest future we think the best approach is a network of satellites and low orbit we're getting started on that this year among the threats donald trump pointed out specifically were hypersonic missiles a system capable of launching such weapons called was successfully tested by russia at the end of december. and i'm good at the avenue guard system is invulnerable to any current or perspective missile or air defense system of a potential enemy this is a big victory for our country. according to the russian side the reason they're ramping up their r. and d. and strategic defenses is america's overblown military budget and everything it's being spent on parity means global security. former u.s. congressman ron paul told us the new t.v. is not just about politics well i think the biggest issue here is somebody's going

to make a lot of money on it you know it reminds me of star wars a few years back that never really developed but people got excited about it and you know i'm all for having defensive weapons if necessary but quite frankly i can't quite see the danger that they're talking about that we have to now go much further into debt on something that may take many many years and there's questions on how well it would work but we're we're already running a tree and our debt every year and in this this can't be paid for out of the bar and money and i just don't see see the danger that they're claiming but there's a lot of a lot of support for it especially the people who get to build this there's a boondoggle for a lot of people so i think the military industrial complex is very very powerful very very influential and every congressman in the in the states here has

some type of military operation that is they build weapons so there's an interest in the house and the lobbying is very heavy and frequently it goes along further than most people would guess that it should. hundreds of elite russian paratroopers that been braving heavy snow and icy skies as they hauled the fast tactical exercises off the year she's maria if an ocean to travel to western russia to watch them being put through that paces before them some have racing feet. please feel that almost ninety years ago the russian airborne the soulforce is also known as

the considered to be among the finest fighting forces in the country this additional blue berets and fly on the floor of the suv all elite fighters in russia today the rays you can see are places was promised you guys are going to the skies today feel the super's board the aircraft all the equipment should be very carefully shot this the enemy states because the law is all these young military man feel . have to. feel over the it

feel feel feel rushed to the parents look for is a full and anytime move to take any field would all be on an interagency now like this one all said and done they proved this field during slavery like today was that. you know not right now. china has fired a warning shot at canada with the west for tech dominance names but not the story for you.

most people think in this business you need to be the first one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest race in truth to stand the news business is just the right questions and the right answer.

questions. welcome back china's ambassador to canada has his heart at justin trudeau his government warning that there will be consequences if our way is frozen out of the country's five g. network kind of there is one of a number of western countries considering taking action against the chinese tech giant over security concerns. if the canadian government does been will way from participating in the five g. network the kind of repercussions they'll be i'm not sure but i believe there will be repercussions. takes is through this snowballing dispute between

china and canada it's pretty much comes down to who is going to dominate the five g. race five g. is a next generation network which will provide a faster and quicker internet speed will you be able to upload files or chat with your friends via what's up is the ground or facebook now again it's more efficient than the previous one which is four g. and it's much much faster as i said earlier but i guess this is just for the average the user like me and everybody else but for big companies this means big box and guess who wants to be first in this race it is imperative that america be fruits in fifth generation where a list acknowledge there's one thing that stands between the u.s. and all that money and that is why the chinese firm that has now deployed its products and services in more than one hundred seventy countries around the world is the world's leading telecommunications equipment manufacturer we even surpassing last year apple as

a second largest when it comes to manufacturing cell phones now that makes the u.s. worry u.s. prosecutors are now building a criminal case against the chinese firms accusing them of stealing trade secrets from american companies senators are now trying to impose a bill to ban the cells of u.s. ships and components the chinese firms and the reason of course because they believe that the chinese firms in the u.s. are acting on behalf of the chinese communist party pretty much spying is really serious concerns among u.s. officials for a potential role in cyber espionage given their reported links to china's state security services and while way threaten the security of our networks due to their close ties to the chinese government has reportedly of course they deny any connection between them and the government. and beijing and they still stay confident that they will lead the race in the five inches taller but the u.s. of course is actually pressuring its allies to ban it has already been banned in new zealand taiwan and australia and the us government continue to pressure its the

u.k. norway france and germany czech republic poland and japan to follow the same path as them and all this of course crisis as the world is on the horns of a dilemma whether to follow or the fall of the u.s. despite efforts in markets creating fear about way using politics to interfere with growth customers continue to trust us and continue to work with us and build networks with our technologies it's like running a race we are leading we'll see whether this is indeed a case of actually security issues or this is just competitors pressuring governments around the world. a photo of a ten year old canadian boy dressed up in full dragon stood next to a naked drag queen has caused shock and outrage online the boy is a child star known as queen lactation but the image led many to question whether

it's appropriate for a youngster to be involved in the world of track and some accused the parents of child abuse the boy's mother however has defended his passion he knows there are aspects of drag that he's not allowed to apply to his show. if you talk with a behind the controversial image has defended the accompanying article saying it was a balanced and thoughtful pays the about the issue of sexualizing children despite that though he subsequently deleted his social media accounts psychologist dr r. an annotated told is that children dressing up in drag is not post time as some claim. i've taught human sexuality almost twenty years nearly eighty times my mother opened up canada's first sex store so i am not prudish i am as a liberal and open minded as you get but i'm also a psychologist and you don't need to be a psychologist to know that a child in gauging in this type of behavior where their self image their identity

is totally centered around sexuality now some people say well he's just dancing around he's a dressing like a girl that's not sexual anyone who knows the history of drag queens knows that there is a sexual component is it the only component no but it is a large part of it so to have a young child parading around for money doing things that is associated with an adult form of sexuality. where they are completely objectified people are not going there for their personality they're not going there because they think that they're intelligent or charming all the charm might be part of the persona they're going there for this other part of it to somebody as that of the each team or an adult wants to engage in this fine but when you're young child you're still trying to find out who you are you still trying to gain a sense of who you are in this world and that who you are is purely about your image and about your sexuality regardless of what they want to claim this is what

how other people are seeing them it will have a lasting impact on most children. to russia's fought a snow we're hearing that the two fight to pilots involved in a midair collision above the sea of japan earlier had been pulled from the water alive by navy rescue if the paris said to be in a stable condition they had been carrying out training exercises at the time of the accident which is believed to have been down to human error and bad weather conditions. bellamy to campaign against sexual assault has been making headlines since twenty seventeen but it was founded over a decade ago when some now suggest it has lost sight of its original goals were announced live in ian follows the first level explain to us why he believes me too has been subverted in that the movement no longer speaks for the vulnerable and

marginalized. i thought the hot chicks are. picking up chips then saying this is the only view. of. some black we mean. me to ten years ago already proposed that. they no race they're pretty good for us and believe me he's no longer what it was. no this excessive mixture so you are wrong you are immediately excluded and so one must over the fact that me to the way. it doesn't. social problems. daily exploitation and so on and so on.

let's be frank although this about. what they are really busy today is fear of the labor i won't make peace let the main dish use the big movement but how. distraught that if your logically for the precision of this late got to tell each individual has. proven. that interview is part of a new miniseries are to his party's call to how to watch news it can find the full version of this is like episode i website. another doping scandal has rocked the world of sports and this time it has hit one of the most genteel disciplines and in the most unexpected way.

sounds of an mit grown man mislead us into. his return. to push to do away from the officers. of his group. they obviously did a kind of lunge for the web in one smith's and they would have been done she swung at the patients didn't hit him i never saw any contact with. any kind of back to where they were so the officers back here there try again fifteen feet apart at this point and that's when the officer pulled out his gun and even turned three. you know world of big partners through a lot of things and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each other it's time for critical
