you know i think. i. violated some tear gas in the french capital markets thirty straight weekend against bowling living standards protesters calling recently government.

also coming up with venezuela in the throes of a humanitarian crisis its own position leaders say is he's calling for a u.s. military intervention against president maduro. that we would do everything possible once again this is obviously a very very controversial subject we would do what's necessary. under primary school in england draws the ire of parents for teaching children about same sex relationships dale beatty writes. should learn about all right now because if you get your parents. to be good with the like it's good to you if you want to teach and we can teach them a home. around the clock across the world this is your r t international from the teen myself you know no hello. and welcome to our top story

a thirteenth consecutive weekend of yellow vest rallies in france the sended into horror with a protester losing his home made clashes with police or video agency ruptly film the moments immediately afterwards a warning you may find the following video stressing. he was never. heard of no use. to. the national assembly and people were trying to force their way in the police arrived and threw grenades one hit the guy who tried to push it away with his hands as a reflex reaction and the grenade went off well the situation seems to be something that we've seen for many weeks here in paris clashes between the police and the protesters with tea a gas being used to disperse protesters and also grenades also being shot into the

crowds but of course the protesters are normally the ones who do start off these scuffles by throwing projectiles such as rocks and broken glass to wards the police but what we've seen today is it seems one of the protesters one of the gilles asians who's actually photographing the event for the social movement actually had a his hand blown off in a grenade on television and the man volunteer medics were first at the scene two of ours rushed up to help him do the general commotion another team of medics surrounded him to wall him off when a person is in that condition he needs to breathe properly he don't want crowds gathering around watching and filming that would frighten the injured person even more. but this is not the first time we've seen injuries like this since the movement started back on november seventeenth at basically back on december tenth improved protester that actually picked a canadian up and it excluded as he held in his hand there's also been many other

injuries in these protests including more than a dozen people who have lost their lives since the start of these protests and the figures suggest that some one thousand seven hundred plus generations have been injured in some method another i also. a thousand. police officers has also been injured as a result of these protests but despite all of those injuries the protesters say they will continue coming out to the streets for demands remain in place that's why we are marching we're demanding better salaries and conditions in france because we're here because we don't want to be subject to government decisions without having a say we have one group the elite of them who decide whether we have the right not what we have to pay for our message is the same this harsh we want a better life so what has the government done to try and stem these protests well a president gave a big speech back in december where he announced that the minimum wage the simic

would rise by a hundred euros a month he also said that people who are in bonuses for the end of the year they wouldn't have to pay social contributions and that in tax and people over time would be in a similar situation no tax no social contributions on that and the government is in the middle of a national debate across france getting people together to air their concerns to talk about the things that matter to them so the government can decide whether to make the changes that people say or not however this illegals have said this isn't enough for many well that the offers the concessions being given by present that go on with too little too late and that's why they've kept coming out to the streets and now we're hearing that the protesters are going to change tactics permanently the government is becoming more and more repressive we denounce the extreme violence and the use of excessive force the authorities not seeking compromise but passing laws that limit our rights so we have collectively decided not to declare

the time and place of demonstrations and powers from now on rule not be the partners in crime with the government there was the mention there of a law to limit right so what these relations are referring that series what's known as the anti hooligan or it was discussed we. by deputies the m.p.'s in the lower house in the national assembly and they've approved that now that law it's going to move on to the senate before it goes on the statute books but that law would essentially limit some of the individuals from going to protest if they deem to be a public threat also part of the is the idea that if you cover your face going into a protest even with the simple scarf you could be nigh able to eat in jail and a fine of fifteen thousand euros so many people claiming that this new law which is set to pass in the next few weeks here in france is actually contra against their civil liberties like if you use our political analyst nickel america virtue say if

the anti riot bill becomes law with only seeing more yellow vests on the streets i've seen just ordinary people who are going out to demonstrate who are peaceful people who cannot stand anymore to have the only answer from the government being violence the cancer down the mace the pepper spray the counts down the grenades the counts of the oppression from the government and if tomorrow they cannot cover the face because police fired tear gas at them what type of democracy is this i think on the contrary this will be more people to the u.s. don't forget that the o. best are still extremely popular in france today imagine that this bill could. police to impeach people from going to demonstrations because there's a doubt that they might bring troubles to the demonstrations this is minority report we're going to arrest people send them to jail because we think that maybe they may commit a crime this is crazy and this is really what is written into law this is just

showing the tyrannical side of mt today and i think it's going to bring more french people to the streets to the internet to the social networks to denounce the system until until he leaves. tensions between then this wheel is beleaguered president and the leader of the opposition are rising one growing up the ante on friday by telling the news agency that he's not ruling out calling for a u.s. military intervention against nicolas maduro. but i mean you know we would do everything possible once again this is obviously a very very controversial subject the making use of our sovereignty and within our jurisdiction we would do what's necessary. opposes trained as agents of foreign governments of the united states introduce sources of unrest of internal chaos to dismember the states in venezuela they have driven us to the point that libya was taken over syria was taken to the point of an armed opposition they have

attempted that but we have not allowed them to and venezuela is at peace out of. military intervention is actually one of the main talking points between both venezuelan president nicolas maduro and the self-proclaimed president one guy i don't know what dura has already denounced the u.s. as imperialist in his exclusive interview with our team and he's also visiting many military bases across the country is encouraging the troops to remain loyal and he's overseeing the armament of people's militias there now on the other hand why don't has he hasn't ruled out authorizing the u.s. to intervene and he's been trying for over the past several weeks to encourage military officials to defect and with very limited success and that's because many people in venezuela don't think inviting the u.s. was. the idea that washington believes model must go its reaction stems from its pivot to doctrine of overthrowing regimes and democratic systems that don't like having their arms twisted the humanitarian aid is

a big lie it's the worst possible diagnosis of the situation we've seen that is no humanitarian crisis the us is trying to frame the situation in a way that would allow it to invade venezuela this won't happen and won't let it happen the army and civilians are united and determined to defend the country sovereignty and territorial integrity. now why don't the us say that this humanitarian crisis. it's very real except what aid means is actually a point of contention between the parties the venezuelan government claims it intercepted an arms shipment from the us earlier this week and it there there was reportedly assault rifles ammunition communications equipment flown in from miami as as a result the military has blocked roads leading into the country from colombia you know with the lines were drawn starting several weeks ago when i go i go announced his claim to the presidency the washington based organization of american states

immediately supported. and followed in the u.s. his footsteps but countries like russia china mexico cuba they quickly reacted in support of my government now most e.u. countries also decided to back why don't the dural refuse their ultimatum to hold another presidential election and u.s. national security advisor john bolton called on these pro governments to switch sides doubling down on the bad bad doesn't make it to good bad there is still time for russia not those to join the community of responsible nations and recognizing why do the national assembly and the path to freedom and prosperity in the now although no one has yet to take bolton's advice the situation is definitely getting more tense and any changes in international legion says are certainly going to influence the domestic situation there another aspect to this the international monetary fund said on thursday that it is holding talks with member states and

whether to recognize one and why do venezuela and president it follows reports that the self-proclaimed leader was considering asking the global financial body for a bailout a spokesperson for the i.m.f. said a consensus must be reached before any loans can be issued to the nation. countries are still establishing their position in terms of recognition so the proof that process is ongoing so as i said we are watching that closely. the i.m.f. has one hundred eighty nine members and is supposed to help ensure financial stability whilst promoting sustainable economic growth and poverty reduction one key function is to provide be allies to indebted on recession hit countries in exchange for structural reforms. well in light of events is in venice will of wiki leaks recently drew attention to a documented published in two thousand and eight which it calls a us manual it details washington's use of the global financial institutions like

the i.m.f. and the world bank to advance its agenda and wage quote conventional warfare against its rivals. if properly authorized in coordinated u.s. army special operations forces can use or coordinate for other agencies to use measured in focus financial incentives or disincentives to persuade adversaries allies and surrogates to modify their behavior at the theatre strategic operational and tactical levels such application of financial power must be part of a circumspect integrated and consistent unconventional warfare plan. well wall street analyst michael hudson believes there's nothing new in the u.s. pushing its interest through international financial institutions the world bank has always been run by the u.s. military from mcnamara to all of the subsequent people and the i.m.f. functions basically is

a little office out of the pentagon basement the wiki leaks thing only confirms what people have been saying for the last three years of course the bank is an angry i.m.f. are tools of the state department for foreign policy the united states from the very beginning insisted on having a veto power over all i.m.f. and world bank decisions so that they could prevent any alone that was against us foreign policy that was built into the articles of agreement that's been the case since one thousand and forty five none of this is no. more the weekend's big news stories right after this. big and big crypto currency continues to dominate global finance and put the us dollar into the graveyard yet.

you know world of big partisan. and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to get the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door. 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. this is revolution screeching to a halt inflation and unemployment cause millions to leave venezuela world powers a lot over where the president should stay but the real question is should the country move on from its current crisis.

hello again we return to one of our top stories of the unfolding situation in venice we are at we can speak about the current humanitarian situation in the south american nation because we're joined on the program i'm happy to say by the president of the international federation of the red cross and red crescent societies francesco rock it's a great so i have you on the progress well speaking to us from caracas tell us how bad is the humanitarian. situation where you are. really really challenging fortunately he had a. top priority. and.

british values of multiculturalism and tolerance are on a collision path a teacher at a predominantly muslim primary school in bergen says he's been receiving threats for teaching peoples about same sex relationships is initiative parents poll their children are out of school in protest looking at the controversy here is political . what happens if you fundamentally disagree with something your kids are being taught at school it's a question that some of the parents people's at this birmingham school have been confronted with. another sick on both of them moment ago some tissues on them but i'm jim off that is an award winning deputy head teacher here he is with the queen he's been shortlisted for the world's best teacher award for developing a diversity program the no outsiders program involves talking about relationships

week the route between school and parents escalated to this. whole. thing. that this area of birmingham is predominantly muslim and being gay is forbidden in islam the school's reading program uses books about l g b t issues this one is a story about a family with two moms another a fairy tale about a prince falling in love with another prince the parents may not like it but the governments i don't want still has classified this school outstanding was the top model a school can get and much of the praises for the way the children here are taught about the u.k.'s equality laws which could be why the school says it will know by

and we certainly should not be threatening military action venezuela poses no threat to the united states but does it pose a threat to the u.k. something the enemy is those who enforce all sterrett policies that have been twenty one thousand people dying as they wait for welfare but for the razor may well she slams the u.n. for reports on u.k. malnutrition is the enemy actually venezuela because she has deployed a military boat within fifty miles of the latin american country a mile off shore looming on the horizon the joint shape of royal fleet talk scenery ship mounts those pictures are from when the british military boat was defacto threatening syria after being dogged in what some cypriots believe is occupied akrotiri but as preparations were being made by the e.u. and washington to resell lector venezuela's president the boat was working with u.s. southern command which would surely be part of any don't trump military intervention in venezuela it's certainly being advertised by the royal navy as militarily
