a republic units that is majority white if you read over browning country this is all about should people here illegally throughout the city says we quietly say yes i'm here illegally no i'm not a citizen of course they should it's common sense. a very warm welcome you watching r.t. international with mina carry our top story this hour the u.k.'s prime minister to resign may look set for another tough weaken parliament following the historic defeat of her divorce deal last week she will address the m.p.'s later on monday and lay out his so-called briggs it plan b. but it's not clear whether she'll be able to break the current impasse and reports are now emerging that two groups of m.p.'s are seeking to potentially delay breaks

it that strong harsh criticism from downing street. there's a danger that parliament you'd stop brags that any attempt to remove the government's power to meet the legal conditions of an orderly exit at this moment of history significance is extremely concerning parliament said to the people of this country we will make up we make a contract with you you will make the decision and we will honor it what we are now getting are some of those who were always absolutely opposed to the result of the referendum trying to hijack bricks it and in fact steal the result from the people both of the groups of m.p.'s are reportedly seeking to take a no deal bragg's it off the table but i have a policy is also calling on the government to rule out that scenario reports also indicates that another group of m.p.'s will present a bill that would force the extension or suspension of negotiations be beyond the withdrawal deadline in march they could also attempt to try to get a second referendum political scientist alan schedule gave us his thoughts on how

the breaks that process will now unfold will the clock is ticking and unless. some alternative comes into view. we leave without a deal on the twenty ninth of march perhaps if you went for a free trade agreement with the european union that offered one before you said what really wanted was just because the free trade agreement. she might get a bit further on and that would have more support in the house of commons if brussels won't renegotiate. than i think her plan is. and i don't think should be able to get anything through i think she would have to drop a deal all together. as tensions flare of a prejudice in the u.k. many in europe are weighing in on the debate and number of influential german politicians and business leaders have even penned a letter to the country to stay alive europe correspondent piece on the joins us

live now to take great to see what's been the reaction so far these breaks that developments well this letter that was written to the times newspaper is signed by the the great and good of german politics business celebrity athletics in it they basically say to britain we love you don't go it is signed by the leaders of the social democratic party the green party relatively new role as head of the christian democratic union party. i know she of course took over in that role from angola merkel just at the end of last year and she is seen by some as basically the heir apparent to take over for mrs merkel chancellor when she eventually steps down it's also being signed by the c.e.o.'s of daimler and airbus and former germany and arsenal goalkeeper guinn's lehmann also putting his name to it in this letter they found that britain for their historical contributions to europe is

a continent they also say that during world war two britain defended the rights that are now were pretty much the cornerstone of the. constitution and they also britain for not turning its back on germany following the horrors of world war two but elsewhere it also takes a little look and thanks britain for the well the little idiosyncrasies that make britain britain. the legendary british dark humor and go into the park after work hours to drink a nail we would miss tea with milk and driving on the left hand side of the road and we would miss seeing pan two at christmas therefore britain should know from the bottom of our hearts we want them to stay but there is a very serious element to reaction to the current impasse on briggs it from here in germany and that really comes down to jobs we've heard chancellor angela merkel say

that she will work tirelessly to try and find some kind of deal the reason for that is there well depending on who you listen to you could be millions of german jobs that are either directly or in directly linked to trade with the united kingdom and if there's a no deal break that they could be at risk. we have to pursue this separation process responsibly so that in fifty years people won't shake their heads and say why we're in the able to find a compromise while germany sent police to britain to stay what we've heard from ireland on sunday is that there will be no bilateral negotiations or an attempt to form an agreement to prevent what's being called the backstop supposed to stop a. hard border existing between the republic of ireland and northern ireland government

spokes person in dublin said this island only negotiates as part of the e.u. twenty seven so it looks like that is completely off the table so where are we sixty seven days out from the march twenty ninth deadline. nobody knows or is anymore the wiser of what is going to happen next. peter thanks very much for those details that artie's piece all of us speaking to us live from berlin. the online news site buzz feed is standing by its incendiary reports that donald trump instructed his former lawyer to lie to congress about a proposed business deal in russia buzz feed insists that his unnamed sources are solid despite the fact that special counsel robert miller's office took the unprecedented step of commenting on the report and currents rising it in that curious a move that was praised by the u.s. leader. every vessel coming out.

mr president did you really say that why would he all of a sudden thank robert miller the man who's had collusion allegations under the microscope who's been busy trying to look for stuff that would easily mean and for mr trump if there's anything to be found weird if i hear it right. coming out. i think very appropriate. but. he did say that because after all this here's what buzz feed news is reporting that as bombshell report coming from buzz feed report that he told his personal attorney to lie to congress and this is what we got for miller spiegel buzz feed's description of specific statements and characterization of documents and testimony are not accurate we're used to not hearing from mr miller after compromising bombshells

explode but it's not like there is now some good new chemistry between the president and the special counsel or that the hunt for collusion evidence is over it's that the quality of this particular bus feed piece put robert miller in a position where he had to say something but when it comes to what it says in the report oh you'd love it if you're a democrat or any other trump hating type president donald trump directed his longtime attorney michael cohen to lie to congress according to two federal law enforcement officials involved in an investigation of the matter so why would god trump haters smelling blood evidence from sources which the reporters don't name. sources. sources you can find this word all over the article eventually though we find out from one of the authors they've never even seen the papers i.e.

the evidence have you seen any of that other corroborating evidence no i don't see them personally but the folks that we've talked to the two issues that we've spoken to are actually one of the recently read in to that aspect of the especial counsel's investigation i don't think that we've said that we haven't seen that but i will say that i'm very confident that your colleague said on c.n.n. this morning that you were briefed on these documents we've been i'll just say that we we've seen documents we've been briefed on documents we're very confident in our report but anyway we're guard loose of everything i've just told you about what was the instant effect of the buzz feed scoop everyone's getting the impeachment buzz this information if we learned to be true shows there was obstruction of justice if these facts are true this is suborning perjury and there's no question it's an impeachable offense if the president directed michael cohen to lie to congress she should resign but if he doesn't resign he should be impeached the economy is one of

the best in our history with unemployment at a fifty year low and the stock market ready to again break a record set by us many times and all you heard yesterday based on a phony story was impeachment you want to see stock market crash impeach trump media has become a one johnny one note operation they are out to get trump in the main they didn't like the election results they wanted hillary clinton in there they just appear to be a grumpy dissatisfied nonobjective. on a witch hunt here this is not a light accusation came out of a buzz feed this is a very serious accusation it's like crying shouting fire in a crowded theater theater when there's no fire it is amazing to me how much the mainstream press. jumped on the story in the last twenty four hours as also for a good quite amazing with the special counsel's team as covered as it was as the story is totally bogus world simple calendar mouth the next white house election is

already next year so we're dreaming of impeachment is running out of time. and our total lunar eclipse is visible across much of the western hemisphere and europe with the moon turning crimson red we're showing you some incredible live pictures now of what's being called the stuper blood wolf mood super moon means the moon appears larger than usual as seen from thousands of walls the moon simply refers to its appearance in january it's an extremely rare event and will only happen once more this century on the thirty first of january twenty eight thirty seven and there you have it live pictures for you this monday morning. a public health and hygiene campaign in new zealand has left people outraged and been dumped by some as casual racism this banner sparks a wave of criticism after a labor m.p. in new zealand posted a picture of it on social media it featured

a white girl telling her black friends that he should visit the toilets before entering a swimming pool the ad campaign has received a range of responses. it's funny it's first glance but then you realize that racial profiling and it's not funny anymore. oh even to stop running around the pool you my sleep don't fall on your sense of entitlement why does it have to be him me sasha david kelly and paul again in the pool to. buy things the sign is racist to those with already formed racist. to people who are truly no traces is just two kids in the public information side. why is this culturally insensitive to the people that precious it was the other way round i don't think a single white person would be offended. that your character is hemy and molly have featured regularly in oakland advertising campaigns nevertheless the city's council

has apologized and taken down all of the signs we got reaction to the story from radio host and journalist john gaunt tapings the whole thing is being blown out of proportion. think it's nonsense what i saw when i looked at the poster was two children i didn't see the color of their skin to be honest with you and as i understand it one of the other posters a larger poster the black kid who was telling the white girl to make sure she goes the truth some people just want to see racism everywhere and all this does is dividers even more people prefer that they finish to white children then people would say why aren't you including people of color some people just want to see racism where there is no racism listen let's all work together when there is a real racism when somebody is stopped from getting a job or going to school or college because of their color of their skin or their

cultural background that's from a should challenging but not opposed to like this it just makes the whole thing ridiculous not torture for example goes out with an asian british lad he says british is made but the skin he's brown we don't need to be making an issue of this we need cheers gary long and challenge real racism. and all diving round the has completed a stunning face of physical and deer and running fifty kilometers there a siberian wilderness in minus sixty degree cold he took on the grueling challenge to raise awareness about cerebral palsy and to help youngsters suffering from the disorder.

there were throughout the course of this look i'm a little sick of. stuff. like. this. such an inspiration spends the most ills come this hour including how a new york federal judge has blocked an attempt by the trumpet ministration to add a question about citizenship to the twenty twenty census we'll take you through that after this short break.

what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and you. want to be. too great to be close this is what i'm up for three of them or ten people. i'm interested in the waters in the. city. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy on from day shouldn't let it be an arms race in this on off and spearing dramatic development that only. exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical

time to sit down and talk. welcome back now a new york federal judge has blocked a trump administration initiative to add a question about citizenship to the twenty twenty census cision to citizenship question to the twenty twenty census even if it did not violate the constitution so . it was. for a multitude of reasons and must be sort of sorry the last survey which was carried out in two thousand and ten didn't include a question about citizenship as census is conducted every ten years and is supposed

to count everyone living in the country regardless of legal status it have been proposed that next year's question there would in would ask whether the respondent and other household members are citizens of the united states critics say though that the question why did turf some from completing the census we got reaction from both sides of the debate. by the funny that the g.o.p. is finally concerned with the voting rights act after spending so long and trying to basically get rid of that which they successfully did in two thousand and fourteen via shelby county versus eric holder i mean so this isn't about expanding voting this is about a republic can be said is majority white people was worried about browning country afraid about electorate i've been a lecturer and that is increasingly becoming hostile to a party that is going to extremely hostile to that and i mean clearly to let's be honest our country of laws not a country of men and their opinions you know who what is right and it the

republican and it one hispanics you know how good the battles in the presidential race little bit between between mitt romney john mccain and donald trump with hispanics donald trump so many many hispanics like republicans like this dance like what we're saying so let's not make it seem like it's black against white and you could categorize abounds evil people just as their spanish we're talking about asian people we're talking about people from africa and the caribbean and you're talking about florida for instance the one point four million people who just got their voting rights back ok are the majority of them are black and brown people who are probably not going to be voting for the republican voter that i'm in jail it is for just like a criminal like a criminal not steve elliott i'd rather be august the rapists and violent crimes joke after voting rights absolutely i mean style is that the republicans just got shellacked and california and the house orange county turned blue and this is

a reaction to that i mean they think that the republicans are trying to manufacture a situation where they will still be able to retain power through an outdated an antiquated electoral college and also through the spirit is questions that are really meant that manufactured republican control what they really need to do is prove to the people that they have better policies and that's why they will and if they can do that they won't lose the house of representatives in twenty twenty maybe when it back but this is this is a reaction to that you know sit. i would like i would like everybody to run on i would like the next presidential election to be on if you're here illegally should you be forced to tell the government you're here illegally and seventy five to eighty percent of americans would say of course just like they say of course the fed up borders of course have ice of course those sanctuary cities your your your democrat party as is losing on immigration left and right this is all about should people here really legally fill out the census and be quiet to say yes i'm here

illegally no i'm not a citizen of course they should it's common sense. seven people have been arrested during clashes with police in greece and sixty thousand protests as violent and i counsel a journalist for a spec news agency and twenty five police officers will inject. their. god. the greek or thirties used crowd control equipment to disperse protesters clashes broke out in athens outside the parliament building this sunday against a deal between greece and its neighbor macedonia to rename the country and in turn

allow a succession to nato the till will see the country renames to the republic of north macedonia in order to try to end a dispute over the name said with a northern province of greece however some greeks fail it's an attempt to appropriate history historical and cultural heritage and all strongly against it big remains could be one to find on monday with then go to a vote later next week. for decades greece's fourth bristly over neighbor macedonia's name because it happens border region is also called macedonia one of the country's official name safeway on short for the former yugoslav republic of macedonia stop the laying claim to the rich history of that name after all military genius alexander the great still study you walk out of these round the world was born in macedonia without blocking its neighbors nato and the wishes of you should be finally agreed to marry the republic of north macedonia macedonia as parliament

probably amended its constitution to ratify the name change but greece's politics means it has yet to do the same form a great comeback suggests you canada says as far as the west is concerned it's all about snape. the whole issue and the reason that the greeks are very angry about this agreement is that for the first time british is giving the name of macedonia who love a country that belongs with north. they cannot accept that and that's why we are here where we are reacting like that but of the worst thing is that the purpose united states nato and the e.u. they don't care very much about the agreement per se what they want is to have scorpio join nevil that's the home that's the whole game this big push or exercise on the greek government through a low spoke and joined me
