the saying goes the route to hell is paved with good intentions though something tells me. less interested in good intentions and more concerned about bad press and profit but hey who knows he talks so pretty by updating the rules for the internet we can preserve what's best about it the freedom for people to express themselves. remarkable he's actually saying that government censorship politicians deciding what you can and cannot do or say will somehow make the internet freer when has that ever happened before in fact one of the scandals facebook was embroiled in was its wholesale cleansing even for awhile artie's math ik media all four of magic pages including the

interests here. wolves are getting closer regulation of his company there's a lot of anger and it's a growing call to break up facebook to regulate facebook and i think what's everybody's doing is recognizing that something is going to happen and rather than face it alone he wants to. call for regulation of all his competitors to because if he's the only one who's regulated he gets broken up the company gets smaller has less power. and to get hurt in the competition with larger entities like google he's trying to shape it but i don't think his argument holds a lot of water that is that he's been making all along that somehow facebook is just a free speech issue. thanks this monday morning tracking what's happening in ukraine with around half the votes counted comedian bill of the mess and then skis leading
2:06 am
the polls in the first round of the presidential election that so far is one thirty percent of the vote i will be up against incumbent president petro poroshenko the end of this month and the second round. certainly looks like you those are the please the crowds even if he's not a great politician. much known about him on the political side really but he seems to be doing really well this morning doesn't this. that's true kevin hi again and this is ukraine that's why anything can happen when these people go to vote for the
2:07 am
next president the next parliament just bear in mind that this country saw two revolutions in the time span of ten years now just to explain why portion calls losing and for now this looks like a major defeat for him of course you can make it back in the runoff but for now he's scoring a bit more than fifteen percent and. almost two times more than that portion call came to power as a result of the my down revolution five years ago and this is when people wanted a new ukraine they were desperate for a country without corruption a country where people are not impoverished a country which is a part of nato and the european union and most importantly country when there's no longer any civil war well failed to do that yes he had some minor victories for example now ukrainians can go to europe the european union without getting
2:08 am
a visa for one thousand days yes he created an independent ukrainian orthodox church which does not depend on that of moscow but that wasn't enough and many inside ukraine and outside ukraine were saying that the only way you could win this was by rigging the vote. because they will fake it i know that for sure i see how much they've interested in order to in order to remain in power and they haven't done anything good for us they haven't given us anything and it will stay like that. everyone is sick of what's come before therefore people want some positive changes the only problem is that basically only the old guard exists the one that we all already know the new people are only how serious have been at the same time just think about it waldemar selenski probably the most famous celebrity in that country just think about what he was doing when high wildhorse sankoh was failing first of all he was in charge of the most popular comedy show in the
2:09 am
country where all he did was constantly make jokes about the craney and political elite and a couple of years ago he started a sitcom where he starred himself playing the part of a schoolteacher who suddenly got a chance to become president have a look at the trailer. but. you know with a twist events fiction coming just as possible when that thing first came out looks like a perfect plan to become president when we were covering this yesterday when the polls are. very familiar face of course is. a
2:10 am
vote for her isn't it unfortunately for her she's only common stored for now with more and more of will come in you did so much because she's been there for about two decades a long history of being a politician she used to be a prime minister she even served a jail term under president big three in a cold which she was clearly the symbol of ukraine opposition for quite some time and she was clearly the favorite in this race before the dimmers alinsky announced that he was running but she's not ready to give up she's saying that she's going to challenge the official counting she's doing her own counting i don't know what the exact mechanism of that is but if indeed her experts people who are behind her see that the votes being rigged there is a possibility of a new model and she says she's not ready to give you up to the so what we'll see
2:11 am
was going on with the space that he was the west. well that there's no such thing as a candidate in ukraine this time that is widely being backed in the west previously there's always been one but now there's not because again petro poroshenko the country counted on him many of his allies. in america and europe were really behind him too when he fell to deliver on his promises he felt to get rid of corruption he failed to stop the war and now it seems that they're no longer behind him or a little well we'll know more officially in ten days when all the votes are in but i think we have a pretty good clear cut i do within the within a day or two we're thanks for putting some speed on if the respondent look at international chain of fertility clinics has been slammed for helping hundreds of astray in couples choose the gender of the children the procedures band of the state or itself or the process of and therefore was carried out of the united states outrage over the latest move toward designer babies the world's first
2:12 am
genetically engineered baby and you get down the slippery slope of does genetically altered designer babies includes designer babies so with a gene editing procedure or eugenics clinics can alter a child's d.n.a. that allows them to change physical features such as i color even cure certain illnesses a ban on editing human embryos is established in twenty nine countries around the globe the u.s. to as restrictive rules on research but gender selection is not prohibited scientists bryan homely explains concerns surrounding genetic engineering. the risk serves are so high right now that you know that's what that's why the why genetic engineering has been banned for humans because in animals you get you get situ ribs good enough to implant and out of those you get two or three that can survive for
2:13 am
a few weeks and one that is considered viable or just on the on the air edge of being being ready to do that in a way that is reliable enough. for human use and there's also religious concerns people have you know in catholicism and in most of judah judaism you can't do these things but personally i see the primary value here being and handsome and an improvement over things like filtering out genetic disease conditions because filtering out genetic disease conditions you can do by other means more safely yeah every polarizes views it's really controversial this will jennifer breed in the money how last discussed the issue at some length to. we're not talking about getting a vehicle or buying a car and be able to design your car we're talking about a human life a child a baby and what this opens up to the danger that this opens it up to where society
2:14 am
now things that they can basically just pick and choose i mean it even said that the science was going towards a way not just of eye color and of gender but also of skin color of race and so while we could be afraid that there might be another area in society out there actually i have a lot of mixed feelings about this issue because you know on one hand a lot of this genetic testing has been used for women who can't have children i guess they do the genetic modification. and then in that case she's able to have a baby the other hand is what does open it up to and hand spins for you have this concept of designer babies not only does that create a dangerous precedent for motherhood as an example or for parenthood as an example but it's now glorify glorifying and placing his glorification so to speak on and on the baby's appearance at birth what more is that going to create say a parent paid for something in the eye color wasn't quite what the parents wanted
2:15 am
and now the child going to be forever shamed or living in shame that on the converse that the parent gets everything they paid for and the qualities of a child how is that child going to raise knowing that to treat others with respect and dignity based on their character and their personality because they're going to have been raised knowing you know we paid for you and we got you exactly the way we wanted you i don't want this issue of designer babies to come to fruition because i feel that would. it would essentially be what professor stephen hawkins argued that we're creating this super race which would add more inequality into the world but at the same time if this is a medically necessary procedure for a mom to have her child what's wrong with that i just think the president this creates is very troubling. specifically in the science community and a parrot head and in the family system as a whole on sixty monday morning moscow time thanks for choosing out international law to come including these stories damning video evidence in the u.s.
2:16 am
police shooting of a black man and colored mulling a ban on government employees were in religious symbols had. i would hope to. put themselves on the line they did accept it or reject it. so when you want to express. some want. to do right i'm interested in the water. seemed wrong. but i'll. just don't call. me. yet to say
2:17 am
pout just a concept that's ok and it gains from it equals betrayal. when somebody find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. again morning forces california released video of the police shooting of american rapper willie mccovey it apparently shows that musician was asleep at the top of the next video contains disturbing images and. they are thank you for. your. thoughts. so thank. you so.
2:18 am
well that happened to feb parrot the police were initially cool to check on because well being six officers shot him twenty five times claiming he leaned for his go many woke up in his car the video evidence suggests that police. did not try to wake him up so his family also claimed the big picture police of the united states killed more than a thousand people in twenty eighteen most of that involved did not go on to face criminal charges african-americans and latinos are statistically more likely to be shot by the police and other groups showed cross from the commute his against police brutality says the officers in the way mccoy case should be charged with murder it is in no way a best practice of police they should not have shot him and you know it was ridiculous they shot him twenty five times and then they roughly twenty five times nobody knows for sure and then and the fact that they chose to wake him up with
2:19 am
bullets and of course kill him is completely wrong there can be no other explanation that you know i understand that they were maybe a little spooked by the fact that he had it on loaded gun in his law he didn't have a clip and that but the bottom line is that you know they should have attempted to wake you first in the united states you know an extremely far small fraction or even of officers are even charged and then all the rest of three of them are connected when they are charged we are demanding that police be prosecuted with the drugs or her for the incident and i believe these police officers should be in charge of murder as. soon as you notice a car wait for the u.k. to exit the european union national security adviser john bolton promises that britain will be top of the queue for trade when the divorce deal is done. people who worry about the u.k.
2:20 am
crashing out of the european union that's the phrase they use they're going to crash right into the united states we're standing here waiting to make a trade deal britain will be at the top of the queue for us. they were calling friends with benefits tough u.s. negotiating objectives show britain is going to be treated like any other trading partner the catch here meaning it has to provide access for us a cultural products it should also remove barriers and allow access in full for american medicine's as well there's growing alarm though in britain that the possibility of a post to brics it deal with the us the ramifications of it people fear it's going to open the door for instance to chlorine washed chickie in the whole mon pump beef and raise the cost of medicine to the national health service as well we asked people in london what they thought of the offer. i think a trade deal with america sounds awful there's no point in us. leaving the e.u. and jumping straight into paid with the us that's never we were never going to be a negotiator for point a straight and we call even negotiate breaks it from
2:21 am
a point of strength we should be striking deals wherever we can and if we're going to be postponed the us would definitely get more from that deal with than we do i don't we don't currently i don't want to hormones that might be you know they've got no welfare standards for their pizza stand for their medicines so that everything one of the reasons why i wouldn't go and live in america is because while the food is treat it would probably try to kill me a spokesman for the promise of trying to calm fears saying the u.k. is not going to lower its food standards for more london mayor ken livingstone believes britain's weak position could lead to very serious consequences. our economy is at its lowest level of growth in years and investment in our economy is a slowish level since the end of the second world war all the uncertainty about bret's it means big businesses aren't investing in britain they are modernizing. our economy and we are just could be in a very weak position i affectively negotiation with america will be by it will be.
2:22 am
wrapping around like a little puppy dog just doing what we're told we will end up importing more american goods because we will be outside the you will be subject to the world trade organization rules which will mean a. quite bad increase in the prices of many of our food because the tariffs come. and that we're in we will we will be worse off there's no doubt. authorities in the canadian province of quebec are preparing to ban government employees from wearing religious symbols such as the islamic headscarf the jab or the jewish caper however the country's prime minister justin trudeau seems to have a different stance on the issue it's imperative for the ssion don't wear religious and i don't think a lot of people feel that in a free society we should be regionalized thing discrimination of our citizens based on religion the proposed banning covers public workers in positions of authority
2:23 am
including school teachers we spoke to citizen journalist bernard this and marc webb who plans to become a teacher in caliber nose and second thoughts. we are already having a lot of manifestation resending petitions we're talking to. lawyers so that this can even come into law a lot of movements are going on right now so that disc can become a law because it's it's going to set a very bad precedent however if this does become a lot then a lot of religious minorities will leave the province and will have to find more safe and inclusive place where they can work as they want to live as they want now the state and seeing well you know the state has to be secular you can wear headscarves wherever you want but if you represent a state like the police officer or a jar or a teacher in a public school because people teach in a private school will be allowed to but if you teach in
2:24 am
a public school you represent the state you have to wear and you really have to sign you don't want the person who you are interacting with. that maybe you have some prejudice because of religion religion is supposed to be something that belongs to the personal fear is not part of the state. when i was given oh and by the next live up to just over half an hour's time but for now i would have you doing this a great day. thank you. i. was. i. was the he.
