9:39 am
a bit lost all my fuel for their own interest on the source european how to get one and i thought i long time. big powers like us and other big o. us tonight i don't i don't honestly know us this enough. other people would be the only went up on the list to be united to get out you know guys who can stand up to white against armed asked them why they get into chaos but let's get on to that but i just end up passed three times and i know she had a super power would be i know what i intend that you and her whole that in the future you know we're going to. kick them out for her and she and might make it right now are there any government. being used now less than a body like what you did in the us and you faced with this. again you will get up and act like you are still your government to our. this national guard not the
9:40 am
qualities that raise them up a c.p. just never buy these extremist. join thank you and russian us british and nato governments will deny those accusations after the break we asked bafta award winning artist allison jackson how a new west end show uses the fake to expose the real and this week's top political cartoons with a multi was when he got to just his bosses britain's former chancellor of the exchequer all the similar going up about still going on the ground. after the previous stage of my career was over everyone wondered what i was going to do next about different clubs on one hand it is logical to set off on fields where everything is familiar on the other i wanted a new challenge and a fresh perspective i'm used to surprising and i thought why not.
9:41 am
or else you think i was going to. by the way what isn't that. traditionally in the foreign policy with the assistance of the legacy media to find an immediate threat for a foreign military intervention or coup their aim is been to manufacture public support today it's different with virtually no public debate is the target before springsteen change the problem is force regime change as a deplorable record. the maturity to. go in and you may never get out of the most of. my teenage gang rules here. the minute.
9:42 am
you were. named you will be. told. you. might have seen her. and now i was in for the yeah. and melanie like i'm going. to do with you the monkey in the room. welcome back joining me now to go through something stop cartoons is one of britain's leading a multi award winning while there's a call cartoonist for the london evening standard newspaper christian adams christian thanks for coming on i'm going to ask you first of all what's it like
9:43 am
working for the former chancellor of the exchequer of the country he says of you you were an autist. when he worked at. the big you know it's really interesting because i stared at his face for six years drawing him and i would never have store again the same person i always get more new photographs out what has to have changed as the face strange they were all bags of their eyes six years i've stared his face on television a french cross touring him touring touring with something i'm not to sit next to him and have proper discussions with it like a normal going to lose a limb even sure you can are allowed to say that even though he i think even he would admit he was easily. left you must be happy working for a boss who brought back political good to did he did fifteen years or something and the evening sun has a huge history of two hundred years of political cartoons are quite normal believe that there weren't political cartoons some management decisions and he realized how important they are to politics because you can say in the cartoon what you know he
9:44 am
can't write or his writers can't write you know you can say it in the convoy it's just that it's a picture is worth a thousand words but it's more than that as well if you can say something fairly violent but more than tricky inequality but if you rate him words it would be more controversial so how does the process work because it's an evening paper it's the fourth largest paper in this country even though it's only in the london region is readership wise how do you still you watch the news basically the evening sun it is on the street one o'clock at lunch time so i get in up at five drawing for back days edition it's absolutely tight deadline all the other cartoonist work for tomorrow's paper so you have you know the whole day to discuss and think and to change ideas and stuff and all that mind to extremely tight deadline which i'd quite like otherwise i didn't think it's quite nice having to be told in three hours time you've got to get your job done but so in british politics you're the
9:45 am
first one to pictorially represented in this entire country absolutely absolutely go to the murdoch times are terribly insulting because. prime minister again just take us through it well this is more more more small and he's a fantastic because he is absolutely brilliant and he's riffing here on flint who is obviously very iconic you know very very noticeable physically and apology lead singer prodigy and these lyrics you know famously firestarter so he's changed it to our styles and he's you know the lyrics have been twisted high rates of violent. quite like you do it your strengths are going to punk strength with well as others have said she is. that's a very good point and taps are always loved spitting image which portrays her as a man with a cigar and a pinstripe suit so maybe the reason may we'll see that and see herself as a strong rebellious you'd like to think she's a rebel i think to resume a european research group even if you could yes exactly sure what you saw only
9:46 am
cheers a river and benches to think of it but of course very sad that flint. has even more to it in the sense. that your cartoon them from twenty four hours ago and again it is the prime minister take history this is the prime minister it was front page news on the basic story that the evening standard readers would be very interested in you want to be a millionaire is back and there and it was a big bloke he was doing it got to the penultimate question he could have won a million pounds and he decided not to say to half a million there's a story then how can i be mean to the problem with this story. the question was in the actual which of these u.k. prime ministers never served as foreign secretary and they had marilyn and churchill and one other the question was a gift because it's about a prime minister and say cartoonists cogs in their heads and i think it's about it
9:47 am
it's about a prime minister in the question there is a prime minister in massive trouble at the moment this is saying that she has never done her job properly really so i tentatively take it over to what they call the back bench which is where all the news team the editor the deputy the chief news reporter sit and they can train stuff that's their job editors change so they could have said that's a little bit harsh can you change this wording this something something something i finished it centered all and then somebody came back from the backbench and said what about i don't think i lost the audience for and i thought that is definitely better because you got the electorate involved it could be seen as the fact that she's never led a proper majority without a g.o.p. if you're being generous you could write a. essay about it but. she doesn't he do he wouldn't think that was particularly mean no i don't judge my cartoons and what he's going to show me what his opinion is of people he's worked with before and there are many people in government he's worked for and i don't charge my that's not my job let's go to labor then the great
9:48 am
lives opposition and a quite a cartoon from steve bell yes steve bell is famously he's a legend cartoonist he's been around for many decades and he is a legend and he's given absolutely right by the guardian so this is extremely strong and he is in he not afraid to say what politics are and i think we can do is insulted every party leader. maybe before absolute hell have a go everybody well i don't know person for his core team support the corp in movement he's speaking a very famous post-war ninety forty five labor election post which we just happen to have when the piece was a very famous phrase one forty five striking post so it's not surprising that a car seems to want to spoof this at the moment you know it's a fantastic time to do it because the same is going on in the labor party so he's thief the poster and now win the peace and this extremely strong phrase underneath he obviously disagrees with tom tom watson tom watson is scaremongering and he's
9:49 am
done this sort of very sort of wartime so that's how a lot of cartoonists are you pick an image that people know and i think will all guardian readers especially will know that stuff because it's a labor sporting paper and your a commercial distance around you yes well maybe not but then how knowledgeable does your audience have to be to understand your cartoons i mean maybe not everyone would remember that i have actually given birth to a silly right war you have to know your audience for example the car so you know to get you want to be a millionaire i think evening standard real dealers will have watched a syndicated show they're not like devote the evening standard readers their average age is thirty seven so that's very young it's a sort of thing that they get their other things they maybe not get. i wouldn't do this. for the evening standard because i don't think the readers would know what the original report is so you have to sort of self at it with your ordinary who your audience so. well from newspaper cartoon satire now to
9:50 am
a diet of reality art satire allison jackson as for over twenty years in her photography and bafta winning television work you celebrity lookalikes to more can comment on the private lives of figures like tony blair the royal family and donald trump a new show double fake is on at the leicester square theatre in london and she joins you know how some welcome to going underground so you've been doing this for decades but now we have told trump war of venezuela war in iran is that why you've chosen to put yourself in a show deconstructing celebrity of london's all that is great is a yes what i thought there would be interesting to be on stage myself so i aim for the first time on stage and then i watch through films and share my photographs and then the next minute i take people out of the audience or if they want to come up and make them into a famous celebrity it's worse since you were trying to deconstruct the use of celebrity in world boaties but it was very it what did what media dos i spaces make it very easy for anyone to lie so you can come and learn your script to say your
9:51 am
piece and thirty seconds in front of the camera and go off again and nobody knows if the before the after and what you really think and also it's very beguiling everyone that's glossy and made up and not just being half an hour in makeup now and i don't better than i normally do and basically it's highly produced highly seductive material and you can say what you like and you don't have to you have to can learn all your lines and it doesn't have to be the full truth so you can cut and paste documents. ten you guys government and make it look real yet in visions which i just watched again. it was on quite a few years ago i knew you kind of destroy that clean image of celebrity you show the cut and paste and yet i was to campbell his former press secretary and tony blair himself was on the b.b.c. just the other day these a statesman talking to us about current political events well that's right and what
9:52 am
i do is try and show you what happens behind the scenes i'm sharing the real private moments behind the public face so we all know the public face because we watch it on television or on the seychelles and watch people get very poised interviews but we don't really know what they're doing behind the scenes we suspect we have you know hear rumors we don't really know and i try and show those scenes that we sort of think we know as it got much worse i mean everyone. always wants to say that donald trump is the celebrity. going into the white house double trump beats media doesn't he he's the master of the media at the moment because all of the the ten of television and broadcast as a clamoring to keep up with him i don't think c.n.n. would be in business if it hadn't been for donald trump been in power so you know they just would not exist and he's bad news and traditional media is all about all
9:53 am
bad news outrage and trance giving all of the networks cables broadcasters that excuse to be back in business very helpful that celebrity element that you've tried to mythologize in covering up real news the boards are really happening so seduced into just watching what's put in front of us and we don't you know we stop questioning it's highly seductive and you don't look behind the scenes anymore which i think it's a great change or it's very hard to get to people to know what's going on behind the scenes trying to get to donald trump in real life it's just very hard he's surrounded by four hundred people it's. not possible how do you choose between the likeness and dogmas of your work then because some of the famous images they bring a smile to people's faces on the other hand things like the end of blair vision when you show tony blair. a person like tony blair destroying crucial evidence that
9:54 am
might have helped the bereaved of iraq. that's pretty that's a pretty dog image well yes and some of the scenes in that particular film i wasn't allowed to show for legal reasons once particularly have kelly and saul david you know it was the government just to the government scientists died and so i was invested as a match. just because it was just deemed to i wasn't allowed chef an eco reasons and perhaps you know i had different thoughts or you know. over his death there were lots of questions over his death at the time and channel four really great at allowing you to say what you want most of the time all autists are looking for the truth don't they they're in search of the truth or like investigative people looking for truth and that's all i'm doing i'm looking for the truth so i doing that in photography that you can't really believe what you see with the top it's
9:55 am
a deceitful medium that really the camera doesn't lie and then on top of that we've got a prime ministers and presidents who are just brilliant at manipulating if you want to use that word if not lying so you've got the two things working together and right you know we had ten years we've now got donald trump and any of your subjects going to your work oh all the time you know so some people hate it and some people love it you know i remember one celebrity smash the wall when he saw one of my face across of himself they were all over there we were and then. and i was back and from some exhibition because you know celebrity didn't like it and certainly when i was at the royal college of art which is that was a patrons i was excluded from all exhibitions and. internal and external and my work was actually found lies while i was that and so how are you going to find people in the audience in the us as griffith who would look like these people or is that the point they can be transformed or people can be transformed. anybody
9:56 am
can be transformed into somebody famous or think that but who knows because people know that it's. coming up it's all my socials so hopefully people like donald trump look alikes will turn up and i've got all the want and any new films yet i had to make but don't salute me i'd be very interested just for this coming election to do an investigative report on trial and fake kind of subjects thank you and you can get tickets for a lesson jackson double fake online unless there's a dot com that's it for the show keep in touch via social media and see you on saturday when amidst nature we can only quarter run we speak to former iranian president mahmoud othman do.
9:57 am
you know world of big partisan. law 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 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 for watching closely watching the hawks. my seven years doing drugs my nephew was still in drugs my sister just with doing drugs it was like an epidemic of drug abuse america's public enemy number one in the united states is drug abuse started going after the users in the prison population some more we started treating sick people people who are addicted to these drugs like criminals while i
9:58 am
was on the hill i increasingly became people. the war on drugs was a mistake there are countless numbers of people who are in prison for. certain sins for being a minor minor offenders in the drug trade it's a lot watching your children grow up and miss you in waves and say bye daddy as you're walking out of a business it's just it doesn't get easier. this is is a stick up from the water bottle found in the stomach of a fish the brand is part of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that let's tell consumers there are the bad was there the litter bugs are trying this way industry should be blamed for all this waste the company has long promised to reuse the plastic. look at suzy speak. in maine that seems cool sets for something they're classy to seek
9:59 am
a coffee on my end are you staying at a special project funding me. on the line your best bet is the end of it for the teat of fun now the mountains of waste only grow higher. essentially. like leaf the. new lot of. substance the lotus. suits. the u.s. state department breeds journalists for refusing to refer to venezuela's opposition
10:00 am
leader. as the country's interim president some outlets are incorrectly referring to one white job as the opposition leader. or the self-proclaimed president. neither is correct. a british born man whose aid work in syria made him a media darling stripped of his u.k. citizenship over alleged links to jihad as. desperate families in war torn yemen are marrying off children as young as three.
