a people's vote over briggs its latest pictures on your screen right now they submitted ever increasing uncertainty about the u.k.'s withdrawal from the european union. good evening good to have you with us this is r.t. international. the nineteenth weekend of yellow vest rallies has come to an end across france. or thirty's bound marches in certain areas including parts of the capital for example a nice an elderly woman was said to be seriously injured after she fell when police tried to clear protesters from a central square they've been banned from gathering on reportedly she had her head on the ground police were quick know to give medical help from paris where the protests there were more peaceful here's our correspondent medina cochon of. several thousand people marched across the city. center and just sounded on the

steps of this famous sac recurrent cathedral 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 the french government decided to close several iconic landmarks that used to be the meeting point for many protesters here and also the french government decided to deploy armed soldiers in this sheets of the capital and impose fines for those who decide to violate those new measures and seeing you this the order of the soldiers is 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 for sure i don't think anything good will come of the government's decision to use their armies but if you ask for what they did last saturday burned down restaurants and so on i think this is a necessary measure. it's not the are missed mission shows the failure of the government and the failure of our petition. i think if the army opens fire it will prove that crisis management was not sufficient so i think they're bringing in the army as a way of responding to the crisis but it's not a solution to the problem yellow bus protests continue for the nineteenth weekend but this saturday it's a different 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 terrorist groups loves

pockets of resistance. this is really add that on medical what. the mcleod on behalf of the syrian democratic forces and all the soldiers in analyze that for 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 of the village of has been the main hot spot for the s.d.f. for several weeks the final assault was delayed due to thousands of civilians who still remained in ourselves last stronghold earlier and as they have joined my colleague andrew farmer in the studio to discuss the issue. 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 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 is a big isis enclave 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 the 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 asked for the final victory again trungpa. trumpets jump that that is said that you know declared final victory of isis they've been destroyed here their it's all my. it's all you know my achievement but no they aren't the shore they're hiding out they're still in them 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. organizers of an anti briggs it march of claiming a million people descended on central london to take part and demand a people's vote you can see latest pitches on your screen now this comes amid increasing uncertainty of the u.k.'s divorce from the european union. leaders agreed to postpone the country's withdrawal deadline pushed the date back to may

twenty second the prime minister treason may well now try to get the british parliament to approve her deal despite it having been rejected twice already but she's now warning that vote might not take place next week as expected and that would throw briggs into further disarray following the twists and turns his. remember that simpsons episode where bart keeps touching the electrified cupcake. it all looks a bit like to resume a's attempts to get her breath 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 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 down 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 charlie. even donald trump has had

a dig i'm surprised to help their 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 sorrier 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. playing. and 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 at 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 it process to be over and done with i agree on your side she might be forgiven for wondering if there is anyone left on her. list morass the director of the research consultant organization pangea while

explained why every step in the breakthrough process is only making the situation more complicated. when briggs it was first announced as an idea as a concept and there was no meat on the bone as to what the concept of what the process actually would mean and we start off in a place with such uncertainty is no surprise us to the situation room now so unless the identity of briggs it is made clear that the disruptions and stalling methods will only continue 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 and peace in parliament won't vote with what they believe is to be the best way for 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 and you better put it through because you're certainties are too big and too widespread to even imagine. the long

awaited report into alleged russian collusion in the twenty sixteen us presidential election has finally been submitted by the special counsel robert mueller the confidential document was handed to the justice department he says that miller has not recommended any new indictment with details his candid moment. report has been submitted the final report from bob muller the special counsel appointed to years ago to look into allegations that donald trump had colluded with russia during the twenty 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 travers long maintained there was nothing for special counsel robert mueller to find he 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 mohler 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 are compromised by foreign powers 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 often for u.s. presidential hopeful for the libertarian party says that the democrats spend if it most from the probe. what we've seen so far has been basically a joke this whole thing was supposed to find a russia russian collusion and so far all the indictments all the guilty pleas and 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 the whole thing though is 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 russia 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 circ is is helping to energize the democratic base helping them to say look trump is really bad for these reasons so it's come canadian prime minister just in trudeau's being challenged over his feminism details after the break. you know world of big. lot and conspiracies it's time. 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 thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks.

regulations and well long with the invisible hand because when you every put this spent together they will try to fix prices so the us. will end up with a market fundamentalist really believe. price manipulation even more so the profits because profits are the result of the accounting and the accounting is the result of the four big accounting firms that you can pay to have any result you want. you know position has lashed out at the prime minister calling him a fake feminist and a fiery pol of entry session michelle rampolla cues just in truth of silencing

powerful women in an ongoing corruption scandal. the use of the term their minister day i'll ask one more time if this time minister is such a minister why is he was willing the former attorney. for the former attorney general who the lawmaker mentioned there was one of the first to blow the whistle on a bribery case that has shaken the canadian government to its core jody wilson says that she was pressured by trudeau to drop an investigation into canadian engineering giant asensio love a limb on that company is one of the largest construction firms in the world and it allegedly paid ninety eight million dollars to gadhafi era officials to secure lucrative contracts including the world's biggest irrigation project. while he's now accused of being a fake feminist a traitor who had earlier heaped praise on those who defended women's rights and proudly declared that is exactly what he himself does all the critics claim that he

was just looking to score cheap political points being a feminist is the right thing to do but it's also the smart thing to do i'm going to keep saying loud and clearly that i am a feminist men should be feminists as wow i am proud of that maternal love is the love that's going to change the future of mankind so we'd like you to look for it we're going to see people coming not necessarily mankind. there's lots of things you can do to be here that are feminist as a man but here's a simple one. is not

about holding true to one's values it is not about actually having a code of ethics it is about winning elections you know government has made it such a priority they have used accusations of sexism they have used the term feminist to prop up their worst to bring this up in the conversation because they have made it such an important political debate so if your party is going to be about equality half women half men in the parliament that is going to be the hill that your party guys on that you better stand on if you're going to use that as a weapon well then be prepared for that to be used as a weapon against you cheer it out when you don't live up to your own values this will certainly make it a closer election than i initially thought and i think the conservatives could have a chance at taking things continues down this road. of scandal after scandal. u.k. immigration officials are facing questions after it was revealed that they used 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 theologica it is very hard to tell if the person is selling the truth and you need to think about what the person's motivations are but to go as far as to dig out specific verses to try in just a fire claim seems extremely bizarre i have never seen anything quite like this one is solemn sega has not been identified to file the claim in two thousand and sixteen in it he said that he converted from islam to christianity because he believed to be a more peaceful religion immigration officials though of use quotes from the bible

in a bid to disprove that 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 the home office says the rejection letter was a one off not in line with general policies adding that it will work on more training for staff he spoke with the chairman of an immigration consultancy firm someone who 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 unfortunately in some respects it's not surprising because they are quite unreasonable around help for. looking for excuses to turn down asylum cases even cases which many people would consider to be quite genuine so you know

for sure there we are the home office. quite inventive in a way and can come up with a whole range of reasons to fuse asylum you know which can be completely unjustified 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 unhelpful. investigators are flown to a remote part of russia's ural mountains in a bid to finally solve a six decade long mystery back in ninety fifty eight a group of nine hikers were found dead one tongue is missing over the years the theories of range from a yeti attack to a new bridge right up to date thanks staying with r.t. this evening i'll be back with the latest headlines in just over half

a. brick said count down on our. i want. to get up on something that. was usha. hit it and say i'm just going to. prison and how much that you don't commit this is the first step was never post.

during the great depression which old mr remember there was most of the family were unemployed. there wasn't it was bed much worse objective listen today but there was an expectation of 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 turn principles of concentration of wealth and power. reduced democracy attack solo down engineer elections manufacture consent and other principle holds according to no i'm chomsky one set of rules for the rich opposite. that's what happens when you put her into the hands of

a narrow sector of will switch is dedicated to increasing power for chills just as you'd expect one of the most influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization of america. a matter of time they were going underground as washington and the e.u. continues to recognize president as leader of france despite today's nineteenth week of violent protests across the country leaving thousands dead or injured coming up with a show that a good psychologist professor jordan peterson elevated by neo liberal was supporting media like the new york times and guardian comes to going on the ground and the first muslim woman to sit in parliament british pm in a suit in

a british media political class complicit in deadly islamophobia all the civil coming of a days going underground the first the rise of identity politics is long been accused of masking the horrors of neo liberal stereotype of disguising class conflict as the driving force of the march of history but on next guest sees not only identity is the enemy to fulfilling lives but marxism and socialism joining me now from toronto in canada is clinical psychologist on the international bestselling author of twelve rules for life an antidote to chaos professor jordan peterson jordan welcome to going underground let's just begin with what do you think it says about free speech in britain that cambridge university made an announcement this week saying they weren't going to invite you to speak i think it says more about the nature of the universities in general than about free speech in general i mean i don't feel that my disinvest taishan has compromised my free speech ability because i have so many platforms on which i can discuss my ideas but

i think that it was handled in an unbelievably unprofessional shoddy and cowardly way i mean i was never even notified formally that this invitation occurred i found out about it through the grapevine and i have no all still have no real explanation for why it happened. you know only able to surmise the reasons i think that arc i was in cambridge in november and i did a very popular talk there and there was lots of student interest and interest out the faculty of divinity as well and i was really looking forward to working with the experts there on biblical issues and i thought it would have been a very good collaboration for everyone given the popularity of the biblical lecture series i did a year ago and i think it's i think it's sad and i think it's sad and shoddy but i also think it's deeply reflective of how powerful logical the universities have

become to be clear you didn't tell them you didn't want demonstrators outside the lecture hall as when you were speaking this is clearly a deliberate vote of no platforming and censorship. well i presume so as i said i haven't had any official notification let's just get to some of the work i mean how key would you say in your work has been your opposition to socialism marxism and of course the best selling book as well given at the moment the word socialism of course has a bit of a renaissance here with jeremy corbyn and in the united states with but he has you know i'm particularly concerned with the more radical end of the left distribution or the left part of the political distribution as well as the identity politics people on the right. you know there are i live in canada it's a moderately socialist country i think that there's been there's the introduction

of certain forms of legislation that have been formulated by the same order left that i think have been beneficial to people. i think the problem is is that as far as i'm concerned it's very difficult seems to be very difficult for people on the left to draw a line between what's acceptable and what's not acceptable because obviously the left can go too far and i would say all the emphasis is at the moment on diversity inclusive of the inequity is a sign that the left has gone far too far. i don't think that the radical and of the democratic party in the u.s. is going to be very significant.
