2:36 am
you know i would reiterate what our promises said that we would not allow anyone to use our soil against any country. determined i want to talk about the torah but i suppose i should say because we're going to be speaking to an m.p. for two hundred million people who are british subramanian swamy. the level of rhetoric coming from the if you'd say these are the pakistani is in a suicide mood we should graciously is them to go to the help. of the did. matts of the pakistani foreign service used to what's coming out of. certainly elected members of parliament that's really that's what i am referring to that's what our leadership has effort to that these statements coming from their leadership from indian leadership is what is actually threatening the very security of the entire region and this is what we had when we had been emphasising that the international community as to what are the potential of danger lies and this is what our foreign
2:37 am
minister in his letters to the. un has written i'm sure the came across one of the great british journalist robert fisk is now claiming that israel as a close involvement with the indian government and the british backed government of israel is making closer and closer ties with the mahdi administration anything in that yes you know we had a very of the growing relationship between india and israel and. this is a matter between the two of them we don't as a matter of policy interfere in the really ship between two sovereign countries or two to any sort of entities. as far as israel concerned of a i have nothing else to say but we don't recognize them when i remember interviewing you the prime minister before he became prime minister and he was often focused on the idea of in news interests conflict often occurred that learn
2:38 am
israel's export of to india britain has supplied more than half a trillion pounds worth of weapons to the indian government it's sold around forty two billion pounds understand of weapons to pakistan you can see that it certainly conflict is good for the british balance of trade in your area i'm sure the british government would deny that they're encouraging it there will be a look at indian military buildup for mining that how that actually they have become i think the second largest or largest importer of arms and equipment and that is basically the quality arms race that in the region that has also you know given them this sense that they are because they have become very belligerent they don't really care the united states is also improving ties
2:39 am
with the modi administration i mean some believe that previous pakistani administrations have been able to leverage afghanistan and the issue of afghanistan with the americans. there's no sign at all that it is the youth fullness of this of ministration it is cause this flare up is one of the worst flare ups for many years in kashmir we are not we don't have a policy of leveraging. you know using the other relationship with other countries or the complications of any of the country or the situation there as far as a bonus time is concerned i want to say is a neighbor of a share the longest border. we have historical ties with the understand we have we are hosting more than we starting from six point two million afghan refugees to today we have more than three million one half which is still in pakistan for the last forty years beason of what is than is in pakistan's interest there's been historic suspicions of i.s.i.
2:40 am
involvement in islam is groups of course across the border where you are still stuck with the suspicions and the blame game have we are we have demonstrated over determination what intention with all sincerity to work towards bringing peace and stability in afghanistan. will china and russia saying. you know they want it to calm down how long you think china what are you hearing about what is coming out from beijing as to how to calm down the situation so it doesn't a school that we are completely stuck with the fourteenth february incident ok we are completely forgetting the past the ongoing atrocities constantly in but protected by the indian security forces or indian occupation forces in an awkward moment kashmir for for many decades whatever is happening over there it's not hearsay that has all been documented the atrocities the mosque raids
2:41 am
the gang rapes of muslim women women and the you know. arbitrary detention of. never to return to their homes again or letting up in the mosque years than we have seen can and push for an incident that they had been more than thirty musée course in one for seven. or more than half a million kashmiris were slaughtered so i think we need to see the entire perspective the main issue is the issue of kashmir have been denied really miller in really knows what to do with one in forty seven obviously we don't to go back there right now i would say though that britain is not officially backing the belton road. trade initiative of the chinese government all the governments would deny that this kind of flare up of conflict would benefit them but could escalate of any kind threaten the chinese pakistan economic corridor which is clearly in the
2:42 am
region one of the most important infrastructure projects and there is a stance on this is that in that part of the region. and particularly in south asia there's huge potential economic potential to be exploited to be explored to the advantage of the people of their trade. and definitely any conflict situation would be an impediment in the vein of attaining the economic prosperity in that region. overnight commissioner after the break who is really in power in britain we talk to the widow of human rights watch that for fourteen times with collusion between m i five and paramilitaries linked to the party that major raise i'm a prime minister of the united kingdom all this and more coming up in bonn to i'm going underground.
2:43 am
i didn't think the numbers mean something they matter us was over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime happens each day. eighty five percent of global wealth he longs to be rich eight percent world market thirty percent some with one hundred five hundred first second per second and when he rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars . mark but don't let the numbers over. the only number you need to remember one business show you know the one and only boom but. that's just financial survival. when customers go.
2:44 am
well reducing lower. that's not what's good for markets it's not good for the global economy. welcome back i'm still with the high commissioner of pakistan to the united kingdom saudi arabia and to factor a leader i would sell when do you make of we need to be went to china but before then he went to pakistan to feel the need to fly back to saudi arabia and then to fly to india. what do you think. the position of saudi arabia is visa view this as so there would be a is a. long standing friend parks that we have absolutely excellent relationship we have you have heard the sentiment expressed by. the conference during his visit to
2:45 am
parker some peace broker given that there are increasing their ties to the modi administration well and this is what i'm saying that first i would bring your attention to the sentiment expressed by you know the conference the kind of investment there portend actually and made a commitment over there and then of course as a friend. as a friend who wants to who want to see peace and stability in the region so that you know that if they added they want to invest twenty one billion dollars in pakistan that means they have economic interests there so they would like to see peace and if in that spirit as a responsible country a member of the u.n. they want to contribute to the peace efforts to reduce the tension between amp ourself we have what was vulcan that i should actually just since it is the world's worst humanitarian crisis yemen where britain is exporting arms to what is pakistan's position on. the crisis of him and because of his saudi arabia well i
2:46 am
think the reviewer very clear on this that as well some countries are there because we want to see muslim united we want to see peace and harmony among in the muslim world whatever the differences are there among the muslim countries and we have always advocated that these differences should be resolved to the advantage of the muslim now obviously before this crisis put pakistan on the front pages taking out breck's that even for of their own pages it was brags that has been the main story in this country has britain signed any trade deal with pakistan that would kick in on march the twenty ninth or whatever data around them that emerges as britain's withdrawal from the european union in excess of any previous deal ok and in fact actually we have institutional arrangements
2:47 am
mechanism between pakistan and britain and this supervise the relationship between the two countries where the economic relations or political relations are we have a strategic dialogue also that them headed by the two foreign ministers. we are very closely watching the development in the context of bragg's that according to people. from various walks of labor such a launch for the. for britain but we all believe firmly believe that there are always opportunities in every challenge where we are looking at all opportunities and signed over a new deal you're willing to talk at that early nothing with pakistan even though there's a huge spread community here in britain now yeah but viet in talks with them and britain has you know expressed interest that they would like to engage part of sun to explore the opportunities and to me to devote to your board to countries and i think on this we are working on that most sites and the commission thank you thank
2:48 am
you for that was pakistan's high commissioner to the u.k. it meeting there's been no prospects of breakthrough deal with his country of two hundred twelve million people but like kashmir another story pushed bricks it off the front pages here in britain one of the country's most famous m.p. is chris williamson was on going underground last saturday talking about alleged anti-semitism in the british labor party we stood with the jewish community in the one nine hundred thirty s. on cable street resisting most of these fascists i and jeremy and many many others of my generation were very active in the anti nazi league fighting the literally actually and subcircuits dances fighting the national front and you know we have no truck with racists with bigots of any form of the labor party got a proud tradition that's not to say there are isolated examples but anybody get any racist any on c.c. by there's no place obviously has no place in the labor party ninety six hours after that ally of jeremy corbyn said those words on this show u.k. prime minister theresa may said the m.p.
2:49 am
for darby norton the east midlands should be suspended if the labor leader actually wants to take action against racism he would suspend the honorable member for darby nor. williams and said labor done too much apologizing for alleged anti-semitism but it was williams and the m.p. this policy is a close as to pre leadership jeremy corbyn who did the apologizing call the leadership voters now ask. what happened to the empty fascist and design as to who supported un resolutions on palestine and what happened to the fight over justice in ireland because corbin made no mention of wednesday's supremes court decision on the assassination of irish human rights lawyer pat finucane at the prime minister's questions for a new can was killed amid shocking collusion between m i five and terrorists linked to the party that put tereza may in power that's according to a u.n. war crimes prosecutor patrick consuelo geraldine also short and his son john who witnessed the sas nation join me now thanks both of you coming on going underground first of all what has the supreme court ruled on this week because if you gerald
2:50 am
inversed what did you think because it was reported here that you failed in trying to get a public inquiry into what happened to your husband. well i think the media didn't appreciate what the supreme court was taking into consideration what they were considering was was the government correct to hold a review and to my husband scarce as opposed to an inquiry and they the judgment overwhelmingly said that that the session made by the government was wrong it did not meet article ten it was an effective and and substantial. i mean the way in goshen famed political that it says though that it's a political decision as to whether there should be an inquiry could the supreme court not have ordered the prime minister they have an inquiry well they were dolls
2:51 am
to the argument that we put before the supreme court which told me was agreed with today is that every investigation and review that the government have imposed upon us over the past thirty years hasn't met the international standard and the obligations that must be complied with under him in rights legislation the silver review was sold to you also in the ward as the food stop the final lines of desmond a silver said collusion between i five the british army and police was rocking yes the up was sold that that was the end of the pot from the key is that there was nothing more to see and that was the defender of truth behind that meth was ripped to pieces and the judgment of the supreme court the supreme court the fact that he described as. this review with one hand tied behind his back he didn't have the party compel witnesses he didn't have the power to see documents he relied on the goodwill of those relevant government departments and to meet the obligations of what we have asked for for a number of years is that there must be
2:52 am
a transparent and fully a kind of a process which is what happened and it was incapable of reaching those silly in fact the doesn't of the supreme court it's hugely significant where the political decision comes in as. that this night was back very firmly on the desk of dining st they have failed to live up to their obligations for thirty years a police or if you didn't cut up a review by children interviewed by a barrister didn't meet the obligations what is left we say the only thing that is left is what they should have done many years ago and that's how the fully public independent inquiry is going to get on to downing street today and tourism a bit geraldine and david cameron invited you to downing street to david cameron appear scared when he was talking to you as to why he was denying an inquiry into them i got the impression that. other people were putting a lot of pressure on to david cameron to prevent. what needs to come out from coming out i think they titus hound who's they the part of the baby who really run
2:53 am
the country perhaps. the snow i think john might have mentioned it yeah he gestured teacher esther to the buildings whenever he got quite frustrated i think at our reaction. and he gestured to the windows in the room and said our people in the buildings around here he don't even want me to do this to meet with the family to give to sell but to give a review that the people who would be from on top level don't go further and give the inquiry that we've campian for resumes now prime minister only only because she is allied to the d.p.p. which was formerly linked to those accused by just silva and others of carrying out the assassination of your father and your husband you can understand why the prime minister now specifically she wouldn't have an inquiry now well he wouldn't well we understand that there are press and political realities for trees a man or government
2:54 am
a day with and the build up and the lead up to that and they may do their best to ignore us they come back northern supreme court they can't ignore the daiquiri and that has been made at the british government no matter who is in par has to deal with this judgement and they often provides ignored the un special riveter or in extreme poverty as the game has argued against the decision continually as. sammy wilson of the d.p. has been on his show said that i'm not sure whether being accused both of you having achieved give us even money for an inquiry into something given that there weren't inquiries into soldiers that had been killed during the troubles well i think that's a little bit of a red herring argument by sammy and i think his views with respect are a degree that there's a degree of a relevance or. the decision of the supreme court to significant the decorous and that has been me that significant. the fact that the government have night been fined not to have held an article to comply the investigation and over thirty years
2:55 am
since my father's murder is also very significant there needs to be a resolution to this and this is not on the desk of ten downing street and once they may consider the judgement i would guess that the next steps will be that our family willing kids with both the british and the army's government we welcome the reaction of the tea soak in the holy spirit simon called me to the judgement and get a reason of their support that there should be a public inquiry and i think we will engage with the british government and we will see what they propose to do i should say the leader of the opposition jericho been is for a public inquiry geraldine do you see then this week's decision as a culmination of the thirty is of your fight for justice it's certainly a very significant step it's it sort of puts together the last period of time when we were saying what you're doing is wrong and they were continuing to do that and i think that must stand because the supreme court has said government you are
2:56 am
doing it wrong over all these years that the new you didn't listen to them but we're telling you they didn't get it right so now i they have to move forward and get it right there are things in life that you don't want to do no matter how small or high big and the longer you leave it the worse it is but when you've done that all you have to do is take the first step and then when you've done that. it's fine but are you frightened that some of the people that may have been involved you no longer be alive and. in effect of have got off scot free for their involvement in the killing i think there are enough people still alive who are accountable who will be held accountable do you think that even a european court of human rights action would mean the british government having to
2:57 am
give up papers that showed u.k. government involvement in the assassination but we'll certainly push to get them when stevens. carried out his investigations he said he'd seen everything. corey came along and pushed a little bit harder and amazingly more stuff turned up. but he said he'd seen it all and then when the silver came along he saw even more so if you keep pushing you never know what you might turn up there are many many people at home who have lost . someone through collusion and i think they'll take heart from this as well but if you keep fighting we'll get to the truth geraldine jones thank you and that's of the show will be back on monday to discuss potential rewards for oil with the village chief of staff for the u.s. and just a cool. evening
