presidential election. doesn't have strong positions maybe that was his greatest appeal though he made it clear corruption is ukraine's biggest challenge. very serious problems no. u.k. prime minister says she will seek another the. sit down with the leader of the opposition to break the deadlock in parliament. struggles with the influx of illegal migrants a people smuggler reveals just. the process. people have to get up this morning. for. you. cause an islamic state posing as a refugee the man had been issued with a prepaid debit card scheme to help newcomers.

has offered to sit down with the leader of the opposition generally cool when in a bid to break. the reason. to further the late britons departure from the e.u. which of course as things stand is supposed to happen just nine days from now in london he has the latest. prime minister to resume a holding mouth and seven hour talks with cabinet members and coming out of it and essentially putting all the onus on the leader of the opposition in corbin because she can't find the way forward her party is the tories who divided over drags it as it is that i have a party as well to not as extreme an extent but still both parties divided on this issue and so in order to try to find a way through she gave a speech to the nation i to find the path already the process that the house of
8:02 pm
commons has trying to lead has not come up with an answer. so today i am taking action to break the logjam i'm offering to sit down with the leader of the opposition and to try to agree a plan that we would both stick to to ensure that we leave the european union and that we do so with a deal now it would appear that this is an attempt a political attempt to try to put all the onus on mr corbin to say well we're headed for a no deal on april twelfth and if we don't find a way forward it will be because you didn't want to find a way forward but we've been hearing from mr corbett himself this evening and he's saying that if only to represent the views of perhaps remainders or other people who voted for the labor party at the last election he was willing to sit down with the prime minister we recognise that she has made the move i recognise my responsibility to represent the people that supported labor in the last election
8:03 pm
and the people who didn't support labor but nevertheless want certainty and security for their own future and that's the basis on which we meet her and we'll have those discussions but the prime minister is insisting that her withdrawal agreement that's been rejected three times already by parliament mr corbett about he's whipped his m.p.'s to vote against the deal all three times he supports a customs union whereas the prime minister doesn't number of issues when it comes to briggs that they just don't see eye to eye so unless the prime minister is willing to shift in her position it remains to be seen exactly what she hopes to achieve anything from these talks when everyone was impressed by the reason why is announcement downing street an official residence laurie the cat shared his insight on twitter is just that perhaps the prime minister shifting the blame to labor for her own mishandling of. a former scottish first minister alex salmond who hosts a show here in r.t.e.
8:04 pm
gave us his views on the political infighting over bricks. perhaps us the latest prime ministerial emotional for finally get over the line and finally negotiate some figure for an orderly withdrawal as opposed to a chaotic retreat there is one fly in no it meant of course that to the samee has already said that she is standing down as dr minister as soon as the withdrawal deal gets through it will generate carbon the leader of the opposition is quite entitle to say to the prime minister why should i believe you unless consensus agreement you're you're offering me we're here today and gone tomorrow prime minister you'll be replaced by a hard black city or why don't we have an election instead and let the people decide so for trees or me at least that's a new initiative will end in tears well everything about a track record tells you that it's probably not going to end out as she had intended. last year spain witness the record number of migrant arrivals by sea with
8:05 pm
many of them help the cross by people smugglers of human trafficking from morocco spokes investigative journalist lauren southern he described just how the lucrative trade operates. how do people get this thing. people have to get to spin the morning. how to spend two thousand you know. four thousand for four thousand you know or put on for a few how much money can you make per boat from the door to space where you know. over porcelain you can have two thousand two thousand five hundred or four thousand you get to thirty to fifty plus one. fifty of course i'm. fifty seven everybody by two thousand five hundred to two thousand five. hundred into. the phone i was spoke earlier with lawrence southern who film about to interview with a moral can smuggler should tell us more details about the scheme. now the moroccan
8:06 pm
man we assume never meant or be able to ensure that the coast guard would leave because we were told multiple times by people on the ground that there is a cut that people on the coast moroccan coast guard received to stop patrolling certain areas so about boats can leave from spain so this is a quite. intelligent business this isn't just a few people fleeing their country desperately getting on dinghies trying to get to spain this is a very structured business and at times he's saying it's around five hundred to a thousand people imagine how much money you're making it's one hundred thirty thousand euros per boat i mean you could ten boats in a day you're making one point three million dollars why is no one talking about this massive criminal syndicate it's crazy to me to to think that anyone has been portraying this as well certainly on the moroccan or turkish side of libyan side as a humanitarian aid crisis this is almost entirely
8:07 pm
a business and anyone you speak to on the ground migrant trafficker or otherwise will tell you this is. business they are not looking to help people they don't care if you're persecuted they don't care about your race religion your gender in fact women are turned away often in some of these camps spain is one of the main gateways to europe from africa since the start of this year more than five thousand migrants have arrived in spain by sea in two and sixty five thousand made the crossing the road southern again believes the authorities how to deal with the crisis. there's not much the authorities can do i don't doubt that some want to do something about this however most of these migrants and this causes chaos for both the spanish and for the migrants themselves on the advice of traffickers are told to throw their passports into the sea or destroy them before entering spain and we
8:08 pm
actually saw it with our own eyes passports that had been ripped up on the ground in these camps in morocco in the reason they do this is so that once they set foot in spain they have no way of being deported but what this also achieves is that there is no way of processing these migrants they can't be imagine how long it takes to process a person that has offered all of their history their passport their work their banking records it still takes five six seven years to get citizen citizenship in a country a person rocking up with not even a passport how are they supposed to get processed how are they supposed to get a job or become a citizen or even be seen as a refugee so the police can't deal with this influx of people because they can't even identify who they are and the migrants cannot become a part of the european system because on the advice of these traffickers they they imagine is far more wealthy and far more like paradise than it actually is the reality is these people end up on the streets in france they end up on the streets
8:09 pm
in italy in spain unable to get a job unable to join there's not much they can achieve when these people cannot be identified. younger in governments claiming a suspected jihad or stoned to do europe as a refugee and was even given a prepaid debit card by the e.u. multi-speed to all of a has the story. imagine a suspected islamic terrorist receiving aid money meant for refugees not just any terrorist acing eisel commander and not just any money a new tax payer money and it gets worse reports say that he received a monthly payment of five hundred euros on his debit card that's well over today's gross minimum wage in hungary these prepaid cards are issued to a joint project between the united nations and the european union that's supposed to be a strict screening process in place to make sure that only those eligible have access
8:10 pm
to the funds but this wouldn't be the first time that a suspected terrorist hiding among refugees that inadvertently been given taxpayer money. the european commission insists that the prepaid debit cards are not just handed out to anyone that they know exactly who these cards are being distributed to and check up on their status on a monthly basis so hungry is wondering why did brussels not know that they were funding a suspected terrorist this not only creates another poll it also raises serious
8:11 pm
security concerns the citizens of europe have a right to know the problem of how to provide much needed funding and aid to refugees in europe isn't an easy one to solve but it's cases like these that fuel the popularity of anti immigration parties across the continent and with a new parliamentary elections coming up next month question is will the establishment. artie's dealt another blow become ups of the territory that so-called isis was holding it will generate more people trying to get in through and that's why very carefully orchestrated and internationally coordinated this is where international cooperation is key i think the threat for a period of time will grow because foreign fighters will start to come back but i think what we're seeing with. isis and with al qaeda is we're seeing a time of transition they will transition into something different this is a very very dangerous and very difficult period we need to monitor the transition
8:12 pm
very closely to be able to identify and track. the sort of coming through and to run intelligence operations are trying to identify those are no on the u.s. supreme court turned down an appeal from a death row inmate who asked for a painless execution a judge explain the ruling citing the constitution. the eighth amendment does not guarantee a prisoner a painless death something that of course isn't guaranteed to many people including most victims of capital crimes the president russell buck lou is a convicted murderer who was sentenced to death back in one thousand nine hundred seventy and his lawyers say he's he has a rare condition that would cause tumors in his throat to burst after being given the lethal injection based say the process would result in an extremely painful death in violation of his constitutional rights. asked to be executed with a gas that request was turned down by lethal injection is the most common form of
8:13 pm
capital punishment in the u.s. it's done in three separate stages first the sedative is injected a power let it drug is administered later which can cause suffocation a third finally stops the heart however there is no guarantee that the death would be quick in some cases the process can last several hours according to officials there to six nearly seven percent of lethal injections are. i don't know if it was humane or not that. could do it you could either not watch or you could. look at this execution that was clearly not going as planned. so at that point a decision was made to insert one central line into the groin area which is what
8:14 pm
they did. i can understand. not even minding to read about these things kind face plant and then have to be in the resume or watson this was my kid the execution to see it was by far believe the term i use with a colleague last night by far was the most why did i get sick. jerry givens former chief state prison executioner now an advocate for the abolition of the death penalty but leave the supreme court made the wrong decision . and supreme court don't have to carry out the executions the people that have to carry out their executions is the one that's up to date of time until the chemicals kick in the electricity kick in a whatever what have you but the people that have to live with this the rest of
8:15 pm
them live with this pain inside and them as a people to carry these things out and we don't consider that and i don't know why they don't consider that dealing with. inexperienced people to curry out of professional tasks. we know where you're dealing with medications and syringes things of that nature you told them what medical personnel trained personnel experienced personnel but they can't be involved in stuff like this because it's against their code of ethics so you can't have that person so you've got inexperienced people doing. these things that will cause them to make mistakes and you can blame them for that british arms sales to saudi arabia again under the spotlight we'll have more on that story and others off of this short break.
8:16 pm

8:18 pm
now the leader of the rebels says the u.k. foreign secretary cannot be both a peacemaker. without once. if it wasn't for the joint british us saudi in u.a.e. naval forces the existing famine and the tragic humanitarian situation wouldn't reach such critical levels the saudi led coalition backed by britain commits war crimes and does not abide by has britain claims the most stringent guidelines for the export of weapons in the world and reports adding context to a tragic reality the u.k.'s man on sunday has reveals that at least five british special force commandos were wounded in gun battles as part of the secrets military campaign in north in yemen believed to be part of the special boat services said that they are now back in britain recovering to spark the controversy you case
8:19 pm
forces a relentlessly fighting alongside child soldiers here in the u.k. the news triggered protests and condemnation from an m.p. with the war in yemen already and it's here i'm hit to express my outrage of the complicity of the british government of the war in yemen british soldiers were fighting alongside indentured schild soldiers who are forced to fight in the yemen this is a war crime this is a crime almost against humanity and britain has been complicit in it and we must say no more inside westminster the shadow foreign secretary is questioning the scope of britain's involvement if that is in any way true because if it is then it will confirm the off forces are not just a party to this conflict but witnesses to war crimes when pressed on the issue mark fields from the u.k. foreign office said he would seek to get to the bottom of the allegations but
8:20 pm
khan's comment on the presence of u.k. soldiers on the ground as for the ministry of defense they apparently don't comment on the special forces but with a little sign of an answer to the conflicts we asked people here in london what they think about the crisis in yemen i'm very surprise. is that the troops are getting involved didn't know that typical of them to be saying. you know that they're kind of. trying to evade the many conflict there fueling the many conflicts you know they should be have anybody personally no i don't think they should be doing that it should be. with you know internally but i also understand yemen is you know phenomenally complicated situation some people we asked were unsure about the u.k. six at mission in yemen but then on the air you want to ask the secretary of state for defense what recent assessment he's made of the effectiveness of operations involving british forces in the yemen in the last six months. with civilians
8:21 pm
bearing the brunt of the crisis and millions on the brink of famine doubts is again being cast on the u.k.'s role and whether it's his party to the conflicts commission sethi london. writer and commentator abdel bari atwan says the british public should be shocked. this is the first evidence that the. troops on the ground fighting alongside the saudi forces and the saudi backed militia and this lobby or i believe it is a disaster has to be on it for the british people to pay for this war from their own pockets actually from their own taxes and finance war which is you know well a war crime is committed in yemen and to know that there are special forces dissipating with the saudi who are very good sort of here who are actually the party which bombing hospitals schools i believe this war actually wouldn't be ended
8:22 pm
either by peace or by war because there's a whole made that. the british government should actually uses knowledge to put pressure on saudi arabia in order to stop this war because the saudis tend to want to play is. that they sent also personnel they composed as a coalition and all of the five this was hoping to win it and few weeks time by protests that i've been on for now for years. is that it's weak. the u.k. daily mail says for ports prompted a u.n. investigation we've asked that organization for comment we'll get back to you when it's for saying they are being persecuted like jews during the holocaust where a star of david to make that point a soft on vaccinated children were banned from entering public places. how are we going to know you know how are we going to arrest you. if you want to see. we did
8:23 pm
the last time so for you. jews in york right now they never thought this moment will come i'm say are you still with you. they are sure it's memorial museum in poland has condemned the use of the star of david which was used to label the jews during the holocaust instrumental lazing the feet of jews who were persecuted by hateful anti-semitic ideology and murdered in extermination camps like all schwartz with poisonous gas in order to argue against vaccination that save human lives is a symptom of intellectual and moral degeneration according to the us government agency dealing with diseases in twenty team the country suffered seventeen outbreaks of measles the cases were registered mail e among unvaccinated people in the orthodox jewish community the number of cases this year was almost four hundred it's expected to rise to leave you
8:24 pm
a graphic of it say jewish community advisor says the way the star of david was used by the ad the vaccine activist has now cheapened its meaning. you know star for the jewish people is about remembrance for us you know it's to mark people because of where they are we paid the jewish people paid a terrible price because of the say you know star drew another jew you don't you have no right to use these symbols because you make them becoming part of political i would say game and you make them becoming cheap and we cannot forget when children women and people were in visual style what happened to them and what happened to them to have this was to be burns to be sent to a guest chambers so if people are doing so even jews they are doing a terrible mistake on for me to a terrible abuse and i think it's. it's
8:25 pm
a view that should be punished by law. c.n.n. host jake tapper has been attempting to defend the works coverage of alleged from russia collusion this comes after special counsel robert miller found no evidence of russia gates' however tappers claim the news channel got nothing wrong was challenged by fellow journalists. something president trump has repeatedly denied or something that looks and smells a whole lot like collusion. on our report was great it could not have been better and said no it structured no closure it could not have been vetted. i'm not sure what you're saying the media got wrong. the polls are wrong
8:26 pm
facts were out i think never get one for you facts that we put out. i don't know anybody who got anything wrong we didn't say that there was conspiracy we said the mother was investigating conspiracies. that surface i will back in thirty minutes with the latest global news updates. with no let me get this manufactured consent to consume to the public will. when the rooming closest to protect themselves. with the flaming.
8:27 pm
lips is only the one person. we can all middle of the room sick moves. to move the real news is. so security council should have a mandatory one percent of all stock bond for ex transactions to go into social security so that every individual will say when they become eighteen they've got fifty sixty seventy thousand dollars in there that they can go spend on college if they want to that's a that is a that is an extra analogy of this economy that's being recycled repurposed regenerated into an ecosystem an economy that is like more mimics that of nature. u.s. veterans who come back from war often tell those same stories. were going after the
8:28 pm
people who were killing civilians they were not interested in the wellbeing of their own soldiers either they're already several generations of them so i just got this memo from a certain french officer says we're going to attack and destroy the government in seven countries in five years americans pay for the wars with them money those with . if we were willing to go into harm's way and willing to risk being killed for a walk. surely we can risk some discomfort for easiness for.
