you know. i. more than one thousand yellow vests protesters take to the streets of france in the latest weekend demonstration. after claiming it reserves the right to open fire brian says. our correspondent is in power the french government closed several iconic landmarks for protests but it seems at this saturday the demonstrators found and another well known location. u.s. backed kurdish forces in syria declared victory over islamic state after capturing its last week after dawn from the terror group had been defeated and a million people have descended on the central london today calling for a people's photo breaks it is the latest pictures from there.

but i welcome good evening you're watching international nineteenth weekend of best rallies is underway across france although with ortiz have banned marches in certain areas including key parts of the capital from his. several thousand people marched across the city center and to sound on the steps of this famous zachary kirk at the world which is located right and the north of the city there shouting slogans many brought flags representing different unions that they came from they also brought political posters but overall this demonstration seems to be rather peaceful paris is beefed up with the security at the moment as the french government decided to close several iconic landmarks that government decided to deploy armed soldiers in this streets of the capital and impose fines

for those who decide to violate those new measures and soon you do see a lot of the soldiers a strictly set out extremely precise they have different modes of action to face or threats you could go as far as opening fire if they or someone else's life is a threat we spoke to some people living here and it seems very easy ansel that divided over such measure. i think this is an extreme measure obviously this will not solve everything but at least it will help to avoid further destruction and i don't know i don't think anything good will come of the government's decision to use their army but if you ask for what they did last saturday they burned down restaurants and so on i think this is a necessary measure. it's not the army is mission shows the failure of the government and the failure of our petition so. i think if the army opens fire it will prove that crisis management was not sufficient so i think that bringing in the army as a way of responding to the crisis but it's not

a solution to the problem yellow best friend a location it is less violent the butt of the movement continues. the syrian democratic forces have declared a final victory over islamic state after capturing the terror group's last pocket of resistance. yeah then i'm going to go out sort of the mcleod on behalf of the syrian democratic forces and all the soldiers and allies that fought with us in the same trenches today we announced the defeat of the so-called islamic state and the end of its ground control in its last pocket in the buy goods region the village of bugaboos has been the main hotspot for the s. the fs several weeks the final assault was delayed due to thousands of civilians who still remained in eyesores last stronghold earlier our correspondent john been to talk more on the shia. to isis is global it's in afghanistan it's growing it's in iraq it's in africa it is essentially international what has happened is that it

has suffered a defeat they've taken goos but still there in the countryside there in the desert the say that isis has been defeated is that i would say in outright lie in many experts agree they're out there and you know they're like a cancer it will take a long time to get rid of them nevertheless washington is selling this as a political win the political message the big isis on klav has been destroyed and not as what trump is saying we have won against isis we've beaten them and we've beaten him badly now we've won it's time to come back we just took over you know you kept hearing it was ninety percent ninety two percent the caliphate in syria. jumped back and forth declaring victory saying there's another battle another

victory so we'll see how long it will be before the next time they declare a last victory and what will this mean then for the four hundred u.s. troops that are still in syria where there's there's a few hundred. foot is a border crossing between syria and iraq the united states was quick to jump there stablished the presence they've kept it for years it basically cut off syria and iraq so an iran iraq damascus syria route is impossible while those troops are there basically the united states holding out for along with their rebels there is a strategic it is a pain for the syrian government it's. basically a thorn in their side and nevertheless there's a lot of united states allies on the ground syrian kurds for example who they've armed to the teeth and my bet is and many other pundits experts predict this that

the united states will stay to safeguard those allies syrian kurds against. while we have completed the territorial defeat of isis in syria and iraq. we still have much work to do we've been clear that the campaign is not over we will continue to support the coalition's operations in syria to ensure this enduring defeat as for the final victory again trungpa. trampas jump to that is said that you know declare final victory of isis they've been destroyed here it's all my. it's all you know of my achievement but they aren't the sure they're hiding out they're still in the startles underground they're hiding among among civilian populations and many of them as zealots they're still as fanatically loyal to isis as they were when it all began. now organizers of an anti

march acclaiming a million people have descended on central london today to take part and demand a people's phone you can see the latest pictures here at the moment it does come amid increasing uncertainty over the u.k.'s divorce from the e.u. but on thursday leaders agreed to postpone the country's withdraw deadline pushing the date back to may the twenty second the prime minister three's i'm a will now try to get the british parliament to approve deal despite it having been rejected twice already however she's now also saying that that vote might not take place next week as expected throwing bricks it into further disarray following all the twists and turns his. remember that simpsons episode where bart keeps touching the lecture fried cupcake.

it all looks a bit like to resume a's attempts to get her bread as it deals through parliament the woman tasked with leading the country at its greatest hour since world war two hasn't got many people queuing up to defend her it's just going oh no no no no no she is the roadblock to this house reaching majority when will she develop and stand to do was. to disaster we reach. britain's departure from the e.u. is likely to be delayed and the wheels off boiling off the brags that bus but if you think about it to reason may wasn't the one that called the referendum in the first place a certain previous prime minister did and she has hammered out that deal with the e.u. like she was supposed to but the politicians in parliament won't sign off on it because some of them are hard bragg's it is that want to stick it to brussels and many of them remain is that want to stick with brussels and pleasing the politicians in

a predominantly remain a parliament while carrying out the will of the people is turning into an impossible task some say she's trapped like the time she couldn't get out of this car carrying the poisoned brags that chalice. even donald trump has had a dig i'm surprised the hell they're believe it's all gone voices of support are rare i don't always agree with her but i know her to be a woman of coverage i also feel sorry for because we have actually given her an impossible task for critics though there's no excusing mase bungled bragg's it with public anger over brags that running high. laughing at the prime minister has become a national pastime. come with me and together let's see.

what's. on the plane it's. everything. and who can forget her famous touch phrase bricks it means bricks it years from now to reason may is likely to be seen as the braggs it prime minister her legacy depends on let's have message to the people of britain is that she is trying her hardest to deliver britain's departure from the e.u. this i am absolutely sure you the public have had enough your charge of the infighting your charge of the political games and the arcane procedural rounds tired of m.p.'s talking about nothing else but bricks it when you have real concerns about our children schools our national health service knife crime. you

want this stage of the bricks process to be over and done with i agree i am on your side she might be forgiven for wondering if there is anyone left on her it's. ok so what can happen next let's bring in chris mihm or r.t. he's the director of the pangea y. a research and analysis consultant organization you very welcome please and thanks for coming on this evening it seems like stalemate it seems like it's been that way for months and months now do you see a path out of this crisis. and you see why the reason we are in this position is very simple when briggs it was first announced as an idea as a concept and there was no meat on the board as to what the concept of what the process actually would mean and when you start off in a place with such uncertainty there's no surprise us to the situation room now so

are less the identity of briggs it is made clear to be disruptions and stalling methods will only continue to resume a is try to do that hasn't she with her deal she keeps trying to push through parliament she thinks she will succeed in doing that for a third time perhaps next week. that's if the speaker of the house let's do so or but. i think the sentiment right now in parliament is that. it's almost an impossibility of this deal going through and if it does go through it will go through under very pressured measures which means peace in parliament won't vote with what they believe is to be the best way forward but will do it because the time pressures are so tight which almost holds parliament to run them saying this is the only deal we have a you'd better put it through because you're certainties are too big and too widespread to even imagine if that doesn't happen if they don't agree to push three

. kane on what will happen next do you think there will be a hard break state or is it likely will say this campaign gather momentum to revoke article fifty. and i think what we have now is what everyone try to avoid in the first place but if we go through the options we have if we do have a no deal that's something that parliament has already voted in has already voted to take off the table so that's one and in any other situation when you have such uncertainty people are blaming the prime minister for her. leadership but the wider parliament can also be blamed for not having a unified vision so in a situation like this in my opinion the best thing to do is to leave time for a better understanding or bring it actually means to come forth to actually thoroughly go through each and every step and each and every alternative and then regroup once it is made a lot more clear as opposed to pushing something through due to time pressures so you predict it could actually go on a lot longer this whole process of trying to find

a deal that everybody will agree on behalf getting an extension from the e.u. to do that. shall i think it's the responsible thing to do to actually give time to make sure everyone is on the same page with the brig's that is that the so many people to please. once when so many different minds come in to play so many dimensions the e.u. parliament itself the cabinet the prime minister. people also with different ideas and different ways forward if there's not one unified way to go through it this is the result that we see do you think the e.u. is keen to do that because if it was wouldn't it have just granted a much longer extension to the time limit is given at the moment. well this is why you know the game is called politics you come back and forth and you see if you can flesh are something worthwhile and you have to realize also andrew that you didn't call for breaks to happen this was a decision made by david cameron to call on this referendum and the onus is on the

u.k. to do so and we've spoken many times about this issue and it seems to come back to think point and yet entity of broke that hasn't been made clear and the results of it are what we see today. i don't know if you know you have the french president said yesterday that there is a crisis of democracy in the u.k. would you go along with that. it depends i think that needs to be fleshed out a little more prison record has also said that you know this is the deal has sort of a ten percent chance of coming through but if you come back to the point of democracy i think one of the main facets of valuable democracy is keeping the people informed making informed choices by having quality and realistic and valuable information at hand before you make a decision now if we go through what many many people are speaking about the actual information as to what briggs that actually meant was and given forth for the people which is why a situation we have today so the issue of the moxi is

a very important one but even wider topic there needs to be discussed is keeping in a form public actually informed of the correct information will look nice until she will leave it there that was close marathi direct to the pangea why research and analysis consultant organization thank you. now in other news the u.s. special counsel robert miller says there will be no new indictments as he finally concluded his russia collusion probe we'll have a look at the details on that just after the break. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you than. i do think the numbers mean something they matter to us is over one trillion

dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime families. eighty five percent of global wealth he longs to be ultra rich with six percent world market thirty percent some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and this one rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building two point one billion dollars a i industrial park but don't let the numbers over. the only number you need to remember one one business you know for the mid one and only boom but.

again i think a long awaited report into alleged russian collusion in the twenty sixteen us presidential election has finally been submitted by the special counsel. the confidential document was handed to the justice department which says that has not recommended any new indictments as more detox report has been submitted the file report from bob lawlor the special counsel appointed two years ago to look into allegations. donald trump had colluded with russia during the two thousand and sixteen elections and at this point no further indictments are being called for we're hearing from the white house which has spoken up and said the next steps are up to attorney general barr and we look forward to the process taking its course white house has not seen the report does not know what it contains it was simply submitted to the department of justice has long maintained there was nothing for special counsel robert mueller to find he's stood firm in saying that there was

nothing to the allegations made against him let it come out let people see it that's up to the attorney general we have a very good attorney general he's a very highly respected and we'll see what happens there's no collusion there was no collusion there was no obstruction there was no nothing it appears that this bob moeller report is a bit of a failure it hasn't turned up any big indictments related to russia collusion it's been two years long but we've already heard democratic party leaders talking about other options they have for keeping the scandal these scandalous allegations related to trump and russia alive now adam schiff a democrat in congress recently floated this idea for keeping the story going i said he agreed that the counterintelligence investigation may be more important than the criminal investigation because it goes to present threat to our national security whether the president and anybody around him on a compromised by foreign power there's been many occasions in which the u.s.

public was told that some kind of bombshell or groundbreaking revelation was about to be revealed but it seems that the two years the report has finally concluded and people are waiting to see what is made public from that report after the u.s. attorney general makes that decision of an bowler a u.s. presidential hopeful for the libertarian party says that the democrats benefit most from the price. what we've seen so far has been basically a joke this whole thing was supposed to find a russia russian colu sion and so. for all the indictments all the guilty plea that there have been guilty pleas and all the people found guilty in court have been found guilty of things better other than russian collusion this was supposed to be a big whole thing that was going to under under uncover some connection between trump and russia and it turns out to be just a bunch of petty usual nonsense just normal politics this is not rush inclusion this is a waste of time effort and energy so i expected or democrats will drag this out as

much as they possibly can not because they think there's anything to be found but because they know that this trial this kind of circus is helping to energize the democratic base helping them to say like look trump is really bad for these reasons . u.k. immigration officials are facing questions after it was revealed that they used a bible quotes to reject an asylum seeker from iran i am extremely concerned that the government department could determine the future of another human being based on such a profound misunderstanding of the texts and practices of faith communities i've seen a lot over the years but even i was genuinely shocked to read this unbelievably offensive diatribe being used to justify refusal of asylum it's not the role of the home office to play theological it is very hard to tell if the person is selling the truth and you need to think about what the person's motivation is are but to go as

far as to dig out specific verses to try and just to file a claim seems extremely bizarre i have never seen anything quite like this one the asylum seeker who has not been identified to file the claim in twenty sixteen in it he said he had converted from islam to christianity because it is a peaceful religion but immigration officials to use quotes from the bible in a bid to disprove his claim. in the vertical chapter twenty six god states you will pursue your enemies and they will fall by the sword before you the book of revelation is filled with imagery of revenge destruction death and violence these examples are inconsistent with your claim that you converted to christianity after discovering it is a peaceful religion well in response the home office says that the rejection letter there was a one off not in line with general policies and adding that it will work on more training for stuff we spoke with the chairman of an immigration consultancy firm

sun wire alley and he thinks that the home office is looking for excuses to turn down refugees it is surprising that the home office should behave that way but you know unfortunately in some respects it's not surprising because they are quite unreasonable around help for. a looking for excuses to turn down a side in cases even cases which many people would consider to be quite genuine so you know the unfortunate there we are the home office. are quite inventive in a way and can come up with you know a whole range of reasons to fuse asylum you know which can be completely unjustified you are for sure the governments want to have been tough on immigration and the home office are under pressure to be nasty are helpful and so on for sure that's what's happening so perhaps it's not just the home office officials fault

was also the government's for for encouraging officials to be nasty and helpful. now investigators have flown to the stunning remote scene of earnings of an unexplained mass tourist death sixty years ago in a bid to finally establish what happened fishel still can't explain why experienced hikers were found with her think injuries including a missing tongue and also our eyes investigators are to reconstruct the incident in the. left of passin rushes over mountains with final results of the probe expected in new york to. stubborn jobsite is just coming up to half past seven here in moscow good to have you company to not go back again at the top of the. after the previous stage of my career was over everyone wondered what i was going to do next the ball different groups on one hand it is logical to go home field

where everything is familiar on the other i wanted a new challenge and the fresh perspective i'm used to surprising. or not if. i'm going to talk about football not the or else in the sink i was going to do. by the way ways of the flying here. is an officer. told you to get up off the ground after begin to pay him down. hurt them freeze on the sounds of kind of fighting in the grown man like mislead essentially the officer. drew his return . pushed it away from the officer. of his crew. the officer did

a kind of lunge for the weapon once missed and then when it happened on tree swung as observations didn't hit him i never saw any contact between the two any kind went 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 his gun and even turned three. what politicians do. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. some want to. have to go right to be cross with the bible before three of them or can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters about how. this city. during the great depression which i'm old enough to remember there was and most of my family were unemployed working. there wasn't it was bed you know much worse

objective listen today but there was an expectation the things were going to get better. there was a real sense of hopefulness there isn't today today's america was shaped by the ten principles of concentration of wealth and power. reduced democracy attack solo doubt engineer elections manufacture consent and other principles according to no on chomsky one set of rules for the rich opposite set of rules for poor. that's what happens when you put her into the hands of a narrow sector of we'll switch to influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization of america. still all over the news the problem in venezuela is not that socialism has been
