third time unlucky fall to reason british lawmakers roundly reject the prime minister's last ditch attempt to force. the u.s. secretary of state claims russia has interfered in every u.s. election since two thousand and. faces a huge backlash for the group's controversial depiction of the holocaust in their new singles video we discuss the reaction from the public and israel. in the team here at the new center in moscow this friday the twenty ninth of august eleven pm here in the russian capital eight pm in the u.k. all have been the day that britain left the european union instead division and

indecision in westminster and beyond after the prime minister suffered a humiliating third defeat in parliament. after the result was announced to resume a warm the britain that edged closer to leaving the e.u. in two weeks' time without a plan in place. the implication of the house's decision. the legal default is that united kingdom is due to leave the european union on the twelfth of april in just fourteen days time mr speaker i feel we are reaching the limits of this process in this house this house has rejected no deal it has rejected no brick sit on wednesday it rejected. of the deal on the table and today it has rejected approving the withdrawal agreement alone britain edges closer and closer to the cliff it seems without any kind of backup plan indeed we saw the house of commons voted down to rescind may's withdrawal agreement her deal for a third time around as

a majority of fifty eight of voices in the parliament despite her hoping that she would just be able to break through with this agreement allowing for the deadline for bracks it to be extended to me twenty seconds as was agreed with the european union that indeed has not happened despite the british prime minister yet again for m.p.'s to support her she promised again to step down if her deal was supported in this particular vote possibly hoping third time would be the lucky one she said that. this this deal would avoid european elections it would avoid a cliff edge and avoid a long delay possibly destroying the idea of bragg's it all together still this apparently did not scare m.p.'s enough in this make or break time so what happens next is of course the deadline now is april twelfth as agreed with the

european union certainly there will be lots of work underway to see if other alternatives are available as soon as next monday those are going to be looked at most certainly again here in west. minister at the same time as all of this political stalemate and chaos and crisis unravels within this government and the house of commons we have seen some reaction already from a europe in terms of this latest vote donald tusk european council president has tweeted that he's calling a european council meeting to take place on april tenth and we know the euro commission they have said this previously that they are prepared for a new deal scenario already but all of them acknowledging that april twelfth is now the new march twenty ninth which is today and if you remember this was meant to be the day for the original breck's a deadline to take place finally the date is you march twenty ninth one thousand

nine hundred eighty eight during for britain marking its departure from the european union. or wait a second. a day like any other except with less clarity about what happens next then the very day the twenty sixteen referendum shocked the world the u.k. has voted to leave the european union. political fifty was triggered on march twenty ninth two years ago the article fifty process is now underway and in accordance with the wishes of the british people the united kingdom is leaving the european union so many promises made and shattered since then it's within our grasp to leave with a deal on the twenty ninth of march on the twenty ninth of march the twenty ninth of march with a deal with a deal on the twenty ninth of march we will be leaving the e.u.

on the twenty ninth of march two thousand nine hundred eleven pm a declaration made no once not twice but prime minister in this house has said on one hundred times that we will be leaving the european union on the twenty ninth of march. i long to votes of no confidence against the british prime minister who deal struck down in parliament twice already and the house of commons voting against alternative after alternative after alternative showing no majority support for any of the bracks it options what do you think the day's going to be remembered by now how we didn't leave here. the day we were supposed to be leaving the european union but we're not. personally i suppose the. most when you know it isn't it is a day we should blame twenty ninth for the mess that we've made of bricks march twenty ninth well it's a perfectly good day would personally like to come up with a new day. has got the whole idea of the nine am tree voted to leave the

european union whether you agree with it or nor most was on a cross a choice march twenty ninth was meant to be the grand departure of the u.k. from the e.u. with hopes of a brand new future ahead instead breck's it is now a saga so lengthy and convoluted it's hard to keep track of all the plot twists with the deadline of the final chapter now postponed due to chaos how this all plays out is only yet to be figured out reporting from london and. with r.t. . meanwhile to mark the day that should have been one museum in southwest england decided to display a work by the british street artist banksy which perhaps more than ever about captures the mood of the country right now. here are some of the thousands who turn out for the so-called march to leave demonstration outside part of this friday afternoon many had planned to come on today's date anyway to celebrate britain leaving the e.u. but instead they rallied to vent their anger over the country's faltering departure police had earlier warned of possible disorder of the protest but that hasn't come

to pass. he has been meeting some of the people at the rally in parliament square. there are tens of thousands of people gathered here in this parliament square in central london many of them gathered here to make the point that leave means leave there is of course a big stage there showing videos and speeches on what was supposed to be briggs that day march the twenty ninth the day the u.k. was supposed to leave the e.u. but of course that is now looking like it's going to be pushed back to april the twelfth at the earliest but this isn't the only stage here where the only protest it as a rival want just to this side being addressed by the far right leader tommy robinson and his protests very different you could say to this one here dressing many grievances that he seems to have with the major media and so on but it just goes to show that even within those who are calling for brags that there are divisions in the best way to approach that however one thing which we've been noticing we've

been going round and talking to people is that the idea of a no deal breaks it all leaving one world trade organization rules is something that the people here at this protest are quite comfortable with. do you think the prime minister will be invited down for the time good. moments of why you don't want it we don't want to know until. today when i brought a well i mean this madness that's the route to us about this it's not no do it's even going to do you two year terms of true press that's what we voted for and we knew exactly what we were voting for in two thousand and sixty so i think our chances are better spent elsewhere beyond the european union you know where we can engage in free trade arrangements for having to be confined to a cost to soon the european commission today say that on twelve april the twelfth there will be a no deal is not something that you would say european commission one hundred thirty nine billion pounds they would do everything to keep percent this is not

a deal worth it it's a very bad. start by the e.u. so bad to do we should. without a deal on w t o terms normally parliament square is filled with the e.u. but the e.u. flag but today it's a turn of those on the league side of the argument so make their presence felt this military style march taking place but your union jacks on showed up the flag of the united kingdom as many of the because those vote for a think wish to make the point that today is the day that should have been the day the u.k. government european union but they won't stop protesting until they read about the objective. now let's go live now to european law professor francesca reducer from actual university in the u.k. welcome back to r.t. there's a thoughts from downing street whispers anyway that this deal isn't dead in the water that it might get repeated and thrown back at m.p.'s next week for more

indicative votes next week which got nowhere a few days ago with the best will in the world it's hard to see how this impasse is going to be broken what do you think should happen well the. mrs may may try and come back but but i think it would be foolish frankly and turning our democracy into a bit of a laughing stock deal has been voted down three times so whatever the reason it's been voted down by most heartbreaks a tears remain isn't something i think that in a democracy we have to accept. that parliament has a right to vote to negotiate the deal done of course in our democracy we also have to accept the referendum happened in two thousand and sixteen and voted to leave the european union the government clearly has not made a great job of negotiation itself out of the mean it's managed to alienate everybody i actually think next monday we will probably see

a consensus emerge in parliament. and then the question is will they go. carry out the will i think it'll be a softer backseat to the emerging monday last week people were basically selecting the if you like they could vote for all a night or against all night choices they have before them and monday they will have three choices maximum and then i think we'll see slight differences the real question is what's going to happen to the government what's going to happen to the prime minister and you can't define the logic of. being in a minority for forever and while they are in the chamber over the detail of this let's face it it's late in the day to be i'm going to detail breck's it or even just trying to save their own jobs across the channel preparations are being made for a no deal which yes it could be just prudent preparation for the worst case scenario but equally you'd be forgiven for thinking that europe's patience is running out

and they'd be let's just have a note let's get this over and done with and hang out to dry i don't think the that is if you like there's a facade i don't know why the european commission said well it looks like it's going to be no deal the reality is the brussels doesn't want to know nobody wants a new deal element doesn't want to no deal i accept it there are many people today the were interviewed in parliament square who do but in the end i think that we will end up with a long extension i think we will and participating in the european elections that that's the key next date by the way the council is going to meet in emergency session on the tenth. and i think it's at that point that the united kingdom will have to ask for a longer extension and will have to indicate the way forward are we going to have a general election or we're going to have a second referendum are we going to go for an alternative approach to most of the

divorce deal and of course the future relationships so that's the way i see. i see it going forward but remember when navigating unfold here nobody would have predicted who was in goodness gracious known as happened the last two three three months and certainly the last couple of weeks. if you could have any sympathy for mrs may and all they say is that no matter what she does half the country in the house of parliament is going to be against a no matter what she does in this so we're still seeing that an acceleration towards a general election no matter what happens in the next two weeks i unless she is going to follow the will of parliament and i think parliament will express its will i think the media have been too quick on jumping on to the idea that they couldn't agree on anything last week that wasn't the object let's do it. i think that we do well probably end up in a general election i think she made a tactical mistake yesterday. in announcing what happened. and

announcing that she was going to quit trying to get we saw who switched people who basically want to replace that let's be clear rob johnson. and some of the others who fear that by not voting for the deal we would get back so we will get back seat but it will take longer than people anticipated and i'm pretty certain of that but it won't be quite the sort of brecht's it we're leaving on this side of the atlantic to join elsewhere because i think the economic consequences would be pretty severe in my view to get the feeling that the polling stations across britain are going to be busy one way or another over the next few months. it's taken this long to be honest with you but i think there's actually a million people in britain who agree with you on that one professor thanks very much for your time pleasure pleasure good night. breaks it count down. on to our other headline news now the conclusion of the

report by special counsel robert muller that there was no conspiracy. between donald trump of the kremlin was supposed to put the whole issue to bed but while answering a question from u.s. democrats secretary of state mike pompei was surprisingly expanded his list of elections that russia apparently interfered in all the way back to the george w. bush era is more against if. for two years they dug and dug investigated and questioned as sad as it may be trump is not a russian agent who so they think but. officially russia gave collusion was a hook for the style if you only knew just how much could lose and that was in the past do you believe russia interfered with the twenty six thousand u.s. general election yes they did in the two thousand and twelve and the two thousand and eight thank you and the tea literally or that's a bold claim especially given the evidence he mentioned he didn't mention any

evidence begs the question of course why washington waited for more than a decade to say so but there could be a simple explanation the presidents before trump were get this compromised agents russian agents and contrary to miss the pompei oh i have evidence it's so obvious if you think about it let's go back russia meddled and won me an election for barack obama how else could you explain the bombers little microphone slip where he was caught red handed reporting to putin. for that it was george bush who russia put into the white house twice in

two thousand and two thousand and four look at them together putin and bush all that touching and feeling hugs and shakes romantic almost and don't get me started about the eyes and look the man in the eye. was able to. sense of his soul and you want to tell me that bush wasn't a russian stooge come on get real as red as a cherry and that's just the last few presidents this meddling goes back decades reagan who presided over the collapse of the u.s.s.r. was also compromised this is all just part of the plan i mean what kind of sick man a traitor makes the whole be of collecting and translating russian jew and then posting about it the story was an american in russian arguing about the two

countries in the americas said look in my country i can walk into the oval office i can pound the president's desk and say mr president i don't like the way you're running our country and the russian said i can do this i can go into the criminal to the general secretary's office around is disconcerting mr general secretary i don't like the way president reagan is running used. russian meddling is obvious it is going on for more than one hundred years abraham lincoln surprise was a russian agent why do you think russia sent to fleets of warships to new york and san francisco in a show of support for him and the unionists during the american civil war the coming of the russian fleets was decisive in helping lincoln get through the last and most serious threat of anglo-french intervention you don't hear much about that and for good reason you need to leave evidence lying about say that comrade lincoln

rest in peace lenin's blessings be upon him there you have it concrete proof of president after president being russian agents you got it right mr pompei oh about the whole russia meddling. german rock band ramstein has come into the firing line of the. community over the video for the group's new single it looks at germany's past present and future but it's the pod depicting the holocaust that's drawn major backlash described by some as frivolous and irresponsible. titled deutschland the nine minute video shows defining historical moments like the formation of the weimar republic and the formation of the nazi party the lyrics are

said to show the band struggled with that german identity saying we quote want to love and damn you some within the jewish community say it's outrageous the israeli foreign ministry is insisting that the clips banned. this from stan klim isn't the whole coast for advertisement purposes is shameful and uncalled for we joined the many voices calling for his immediate removal of abandoned it record label he had to respond to the criticism earlier daniel hawkins discussed the reaction to ramstein new video with independent journalist luke river and historian efraim zuroff. practive the matter is that they did what they did. it's available to anyone who wants and this is really in that the way to deal with the subject as sensitive as the holocaust they are if i may say on the good side of course and they bring the message of the horror of the camps to young people working class people who probably don't have a clue really even in germany of what happened sixty years ago it's true that somehow it is not dead here it is it's not clear what the messages and it's

basically no no this is not education seminar this is just ramstein is way of tracking people from is that something you'd agree with that there shouldn't be any sort of boundaries in artistic expression or is the holocaust you know something of trivializing the sort of way as many people would say something that really does cross the line here. more in favor of freedom of expression refried of expression is not the right to yell fire in a crowded theater another is there has to be some limits and by the way the people who. followers of brands like this among them are many of the people in the neo nazi movement in germany people who have a tendency to potentially might be inspired to commit violent that it's so this is not really a good idea and to some a test must be fought hard but in this instance in germany this is tibet taste of

the rock'n'roll scene and i think there is nothing much to do because if you intervene if you take them to court they will make something porous after there was . and clip done by a polish artist in which he had. a good actor is filmed playing tag in a gas chamber. this this clip was banned in germany ok but for some odd reason totally income prehensile to me this was shown in the cracker museum of modern not i simply want to try to defend what i'm stine in this case because it is not that bad i think of course it's not brilliant i don't proof i think it's your fault i'm not a fan but ok that's the way to us in our permissive society.

south africans human rights commission has ignited debate in the country over where the boundaries of free speech lie it's after approval a string of racially charged remarks by a controversial left wing politician did not amount to hate speech among other things julius malema said that he wasn't quote calling for the slaughter of white people yet. came to the conclusion that while the ex this subject of these complaints may be quite of. the do not meet the legal threshold to qualify is eight speech julius malema is the leader of the economic freedom fighters party which argues that black south africans continue to face systematic discrimination he was previously convicted of hate speech in two thousand and ten and twenty eleven and subsequently expelled from the ruling african national congress party here are some of the statements that critics have claimed amount to incitement to violence against white people. why do you want to tell. me why not. there might be

a why not according to you know the sign i'm saying to you we're not called for the killing of wade people at least for now i can gather to the future i don't want blacks to work for whites i want you to work for yourselves and white people will work for you that will be true freedom you must teach them how to carry babies on their back they must feel what our parents have been feeling we are not calling for white people to be killed before white people to be our domestic workers. all the commentators we spoke to agree that malema is words reprehensible they ultimately had mixed feelings about the commission's ruling. well i think you know true to parts there are some parts certainly many supporters of julius malema supported to say well we told you so we don't this is just the type of rhetoric we use and it certainly should not be ever taken is much more than that there's another opinion simply from many legal people and people around issues of human rights to say i mean these type of statements all aboard even though the south african human rights

commission didn't find that constitutes hate speech but they did find it very offensive you have to ask yourself the question in the south african context so it's not hate speech but is offensive and offensive for lol i think is is a very of things of to to try and internalize even though mr malema claims not to have called for things like genocide and what have you his comments have still been quite extreme he has specifically said that he is not yet calling for the slaughter of all white people if someone on the right wing were to say something like this about black people he would be sent to jail possibly for the comments that he's made we've seen examples of this i am baffled as to why they came to this conclusion either it is because they politically sympathize with mr malema or they are afraid of him because they know that his. political party continues to grow in

popularity and they worry that they will be on the wrong side of mr malema should he ever gain more power. the chinese foreign ministry has dismissed the allegation that beijing poses a threat to the united states as a cliche it's after it was announced that a cold war era advisory body was being revived to focus on china the group says it aims to tackle the full array of conventional or non-conventional dangers posed by beijing. the existential threat presented from the. people's republic of china every university in america has penetrated to gain as much intelligence about america pretty much everything they do is in one way or another in influence operation and many of those influence operations are designed to have psychological effects on us the russian charges of political meddling or especially ridiculous when one considers the a river threats posed by the people's republic of china the committee on the present danger was first set up in the early one nine hundred fifty s.

and tasked with countering communist influence in the us and resurfaced twenty years later to once again challenge the soviet union during the cold war the major threat named by the first committee was the so-called aggressive designs of the soviet union to counter this europe was urged to rearm with the us was asked to show greater commitment committee also condemn the spread of communism in the korean peninsula and the potential involvement of china. today the committee claims that beijing represents the greatest the threat facing america and asia affairs specialist andrew young told us that the ongoing trade war is part of a multifaceted approach to weaken china. it's only. six that is based on the united states against china australia is. also there are some that just. about. the excess of its protection of election but also. off by and that was the.

transgression. or you can be all and also the kind of military. i want to see so i think that even though there was a deal on the trade. ok that you're all to use for now next we're decoding washington's position on latin america and so if you go. breaks it come down.
