stocks but target diplomacy. and the u.k. over time is being watched on bonds commercials that promotes gender stereotypes from women cleaning so much a male. don't want to see the stereotype versions and visions of us clearly our chaps were going to fall more likely that men should not work at all to work full time it's got to do with gender differences and work ethic. when welcoming watching arty international with me caring. which makes co-founder julian assange may be facing a prison term of 175 years in the u.s. but he won't find out whether that will happen until at least next february after an extradition hearing in the u.k. was postponed until then his saudi edwards.

but it really was crunch time for 2 in the sun just this extradition request was being hurt here at westminster magistrate's court though he was given a glimmer of hope as he will not face the full extradition until february of next year and 2020 it's understood that a 5 day hearing will take place at a later date off to february the 24th which his lawyers have agreed to the timetable now of course it to follow indeed yesterday the u.k.'s home secretary such as shafiq signing that crucial order that paves the way for this edition of procedure now he believes that this was the skewing the right course of justice but protest as an activist here outside westminster much to say school think that this is not the course of justice in fact completely goes against justice and simply they believe that this is the gang's freedom of expression prize you know there are more journalists here come the. investigative journalism is under now we

9:04 pm
the wiki leaks editor in chief i do believe that we are going. to win this with legal arguments there is no chance that julian will get a fair trial here in the u.k. or in the u.s. of course unless there's a change of reporting that people actually start speaking out we're not talking about a prosecution we're talking about a persecution opposed to misunderstand back into the public on this year in april when he was pulled out of the ecuadorian embassy by british police he was there for a long amount of time in fact 2 and a half 1000 days which is the sum amount of 7 years in that confinement he was of course seeking political asylum that he then moved to belmarsh prison where he was serving out his 50 week sentence for skipping fell in 20 trials now this is actually a video filmed inside got belmarsh prison that was obtained by our. right for me which is the video agency and in this footage you can see here in a source looking someone may see it didn't go to trial it's known that he's not
9:05 pm
a dramatic amount of weight loss something that his father has voiced concerns of earlier this week and we know that he was also sent to the medical board in prison that on top of all of this is not just the united states wants to decide he's also want to find swedish prosecutors who are locations of sexual assault something of course good asuncion self-image need to know i think he also believes it's a pretext to extradite him to the united states earlier i was doing fine award winning australian john this john killed it was also in the court room behind me when that ruling was indeed and now since he told me that this is an incredibly difficult moment the freedom of expression you know best me and i have a direct impact on john this was why charges will be made up the charges contrary to the 1st of evidence of the us going situation. what they called down to is that he is a publisher. released of information which he has
9:06 pm
a right to do under the us. sponsorship of the u.s. wants to see itself as a great bastion. of free speech no it's not when it a rest of us and that's why so many americans of us are now so nervous about this. because it applies to them to you guys to very close to everybody who is a journalist who is what they call the 1st to get it. it means that journalists when there are almost certainly be intimidated from doing their job and we start to trace it will stir a friend of julia sons' she believes he may not get a fair trial if the extradited to the u.s. . june in a sign she's not an american he goes to the americans he won't be covered by free speech 1st amendment of their constitution so it's gets very dangerous for everybody who in any way is working towards revealing the truth whether you are
9:07 pm
a journalist or a human rights expert or an environmentalist and any time that you criticize the american government it's secret service in its military you could be literally extradited by the british government why can't we stand up on our own 2 feet and say no he's a hero he has allowed us to have information which is precious we need to know if i government is committing crimes in war we need to know if it's true committing crimes in the democratic process. this man is a beacon of hope for sri speech. we have julian assange is leading supporters is laurie love it he's a british fiber security expert he was charged with hacking u.s. government computers in 2018 he went to landmark appeal after a british judge ruled against
9:08 pm
a love's extradition to the us fighting phase had commit suicide while in the custody of american or thora t s now he's speaking out in support of those lines. are fighting we will succeed you will agree it was not yet i would say it it's not about should be 0 it was a trait. of the courage. that. you were betrayed journalism. and without beat it to my face with. washington's claim that iran attacked to oil time because in the gulf of amman is coming under scrutiny earlier the u.s. presented a video claiming to show it radians removing an unexploded mine from one of the vessels the tank as owner those says his crew reported the boat being hit by flying projectiles. and more than. the crew say they were hit by a flying object and we don't think it could have been
9:09 pm
a bomb attached to the boat or gods here as mentions the u.s. military claims the video shows iran was responsible the u.k. foreign office also backs up the u.s. ickes ations saying the revolutionary guard corps should be held accountable iranian leader hassan rouhani has accused the u.s. of undermining peace and security in the middle east but secretary of state my pump air said no one else in the region has the capacity to carry out such an attack. islamic republic of iran is responsible for the attacks that occurred in the gulf of oman no proxy group operating in the area has the resources and proficiency to act with such a high degree of sophistication. over the last 2 years the u.s. has been implementing an aggressive approach violating international law and using its financial and military clout this poses a serious threat to the region and to global security they ran in foreign minister has accused the u.s. of engaging in sabotage diplomacy while russia's foreign minister said the u.s.
9:10 pm
was creating an artificial escalation of tensions in the region of morgan housel. so there were 2 oil tankers that were hit. over your. boat but i want to know. from of them to from both of you. going on one company here they're going to be our new york. group everybody
9:11 pm
by the book the good civil the when the did it will get on. let's go over the facts now the 1st one belongs to john frederick so he's a long time norwegian trading partner of iran his relationship with iran goes back to the 1980 s. one biography even refers to him as the ayatollah as lifeline so at a time when washington is using all kinds of pressure to try and stop or running an oil exports it really doesn't make sense for iran to then lash out and attack one of its oldest friends now the 2nd oil tanker to be hit is even more interesting this is a japanese owned chemical tanker and it was hit at the same time that japan's prime minister shinzo ave was in tehran meeting with iran's supreme leader is that. iran from the ancient times of the persian empire into the present day has been the great country of the middle east and will remain so i mean the future so we're to
9:12 pm
believe that at the time that iran was making nice with japan while japan was helping them to find ways to help their oil exports keep flowing despite us. sanctions that iran then turns around and decides to bomb a japanese vessel in fact iran has been rather nice to the united states in the last few days a us resident who was charged with espionage was just released as a gesture of good will so why would they then choose this moment to fire tar paedos in the gulf of oman the iranian foreign minister job and zarif is describing these events as suspicious reports of the tanks on japan related to tank use occurred while pm was meeting with ayatollah for extensive and friendly talks suspicious doesn't begin to describe what likely transpired this morning while iran is struggling to keep its nuclear deal intact and keep its economy afloat by selling its most prized resources on the international market like bomb peo would have us believe they then flipped out and torpedoed their 2 key business partners now why
9:13 pm
exactly would iran do that well because they're the bad guys of course don't ask too many questions hale bopp and r.t. new york. if he vessels could find one of the while the key oil route through the strait of homeland is the only way in and out of the persian gulf the incident prompted oil prices to search to iran has threatened to shut the waterway in response to u.s. threats about sanctions dr i'm in london mr a senior lecturer from lancaster university thinks there is no evidence that's. going to member that the food is that we see green in the black and white pictures and he doesn't say these are the iranians because there is no evidence just missed that it is indeed a new. battle board i'm hardly nor there the people who are on board i didn't in fact i need the iranians did it why would they be so silly. to kind of open themselves up to criticism when the noid who were there that are civilians
9:14 pm
cameras something large so who are going around taking these pictures that's number one on the. number 2 is the fact that we hard hearted you want to do pointed guard talkers and where they wouldn't have been doctored and we have our kind of some who are not actually revealing the truth and that is the reason why i would use the very phrase weapons of mass deception. u.k. national advertising watch talkers bond adverts which promote gender stereotypes it claims that sex is campaigns could pressure people to limits their life choices are evidence shows how harmful gender stereotypes in ads can contribute to inequality in society with costs for all of us put simply we found that some portrayals in ads can over time play a part in limiting people's potential the new guidelines apply to all forms of advertising in print online and on t.v.
9:15 pm
or radio advertisers will have to tread carefully when showing women doing the cleaning men struggling with household duties or any promotion of an idealized physical appearance. but now back to me now back of me now back to me sadly here that. we discussed the story with feminist campaigner linda bell also on the leader of the justice for men and boys party might be. we're still talking about doing something that we said would happen 2030 years ago we had the sex discrimination act since $9075.00 and there was a promise then. that men and women will be treated equally fairly and we've yet to see it i'm sorry to say this is of course just the advertising industry bowing down to radical feminism. the idea that there is some big problem here any well they
9:16 pm
will. say that linda but only 9 percent of british women suffered and defined as feminists yet feminists have huge influence over of this girl not to do it because all this judge gender stereotyping thing is just one of countless miss narratives lots of women who want to see equality and justice don't call themselves feminists i've got nothing to do with them isn't actually has got to do with the no more like the no has says it's 9 $175.00 sex discrimination that women should be treated no less favorably than men and therefore we don't want to see stereotyped visions and visions of us cleaning up after chaps from the moments that they leave school they leave full time education to retirement age women are far more likely than men to not work at all or to work part time and this is this is this is got nothing to do with this got to do have its eyes and it's got to do with gender differences in
9:17 pm
work ethic and i refer you to dr katherine hackett in the world renowned social or just who showed in the paper but the phenomenon she called preference theory that for in 7 british men works but only one in 7 british women is i think this is not about market research is about actually law it's about the report we are projecting british society as it is and i want my son i want my grandson to be able to clean up after themselves not just to think it. a woman's job now is that you might mike you might think that this is radical frankly this is the 21st century and that's what most of us want the media be nice if we don't. stop portraying men completes nincompoops and women as saints you know who you know could never do anything wrong i mean the pandering to female nascar is a really mind. the pandering to female narcissism in advertising is appalling
9:18 pm
and part of that is denigration of men but i. very much doubt you know that the denigration of men in advertising is going to reduce you cheapass removed a video by a project very task which uncovers the way social media at pinterest allegedly censors conservative views twitter also chimed in temporarily banning the group for sharing internal communications from print pinterest the founder of project virus has accuse each paper waging war unfit journalism. tech giants retaliate the side who leaked docs showing censorship of christine and pro-life material they have removed our investigative inside reports you tube now 14 bullet proof journalism by deleting it censorship that's how you tube responded to a recent report by project vera 6 posing well censorship in social media the investigation features an inside source from the social media platform pinterest

9:20 pm
troops who are from war grow so what did this whistleblower get in return for shedding some light on social media censorship the boot from his job and the backlash didn't stop there twitter also suspended project veritas after the organization leaked pinterest employee chats publishing conversations without permission violated the terms of service they said but the published talks revealed employees calling ben shapiro a white supremacist the pinterest insider also saw how quote white supremacist unquote content like ben shapiro. commentary for instance goes from identified to censored and somehow his name found its way to pinterest sensitive terms list alongside cocaine and some not so very tasty sandwiches see the connection and to be honest this isn't the 1st time project vera toss has so controversially done what journalists are supposed to do.

about it it's robust guidelines exist to see the importance of use a previous c. and 2nd expert told as platforms like you cheap are increasingly losing people's trust. well they didn't want people to know what what they found out i mean what they found out was actually very bad they found out that. there was a systematic suppression of conservative voices on on these basically on these platforms that are open and in fact under the law are these are supposed to be communications systems which are protected speech that people have it's just like a telephone they don't censor your telephone calls and why should they be able to censor you when you go on twitter or on instagram this is the kind of thing that's happening now and people just need know one thing they cannot trust these platforms for anything. b.b.c. is facing a backlash from u.k. pensioners they're angry after the broadcaster announced it was scrapping free t.v. licenses for they have
9:23 pm
a 75 my county have has. respecting and honoring our elders looking out for them is one thing but money's money if a 75 year old can watch t.v. they sure as heck can pay for it says the b.b.c. currently all households with people over $75.00 are entitled to a free t.v. license that government funded scheme which is expected to cost $745000000.00 pounds by 2021 slash $22.00 comes to an end in 2023 tele's over the grandpas and grandmas time to cough up insured millions of pensioners many of the disabled and living on very modest incomes are going to have to sponsor the b.b.c. because the corporation doesn't feel like shutting some of its hugely expensive projects the b.b.c. did the math right what they got wrong was the public reaction outrage
9:24 pm
boycott the b.b.c. there is disgrace money grabbing all sound a 5 year old should be exempt from pains a license fee. so over 70 five's have served their country and worked for decades to make our country a better place will not be church $154.00 pounds for a t.v. license a week after d.-day commemorations shima new b.b.c. petitions popping up left and right anger frustration a feeling of injustice why of those who worked serve the nation for decades being put in the same level as everyone outs where are your manners even government ministers party leaders are upset pensioners have spent their lives contributing to our society providing over 74 hours with free t.v. licenses is not too much to ask here is the kicker the b.b.c.

9:26 pm
be it ridiculous salaries for the top guys or lack of objectivity so many british people are asking openly why are they still paying to own tea. these in the age of the internet almost certainly this idea of a t.v. being a separate box that different to your computer will completely disappear. from many many households and then the question do you have a t.v. will become a weird question to ask by the way the b.b.c. is still 250000000 pounds short of keeping the all of its stuff on there so if you have any ideas of who else to squeeze for a few more quid immigrants centenarians don't hesitate get in touch l. appreciate it even if decision comes after the u.k. government passed the cost of funding free licenses for the have
9:27 pm
a $75.00 to the broadcaster b.b.c. insists maintaining free license this will affect the quality of his programming adding that those least able to pay will still be entitled to a fee waiver writer mike yardley says people are losing their patience with the b.b.c. . there is a tremendous amount of anger in the country about the b.b.c. there is this feeling that the b.b.c. no longer represents the voice of ordinary british people and it is of course a state broadcaster and t.v. licensing is a brand of the b.b.c. and it is extraordinary the 10 percent of the people who go to court in britain are going to court about t.v. licensing issues and that most of those people are little old ladies and some of them may even end up in prison for not paying a t.v. license i think there is an argument that people are deeply concerned about the elitist liberal direction of the b.b.c. they're concerned because it pursues certain agendas for example it's very positive
9:28 pm
on global warming this is a major issue for the b.b.c. it doesn't like mr trump it doesn't like wrecks it and a lot of people feel there's been a huge political bias not just in b.b.c. news programs but in b.b.c. comedy and in all their output i mean this is a very big issue. thanks for joining us tonight international it back at the top of the hour with the latest.
9:29 pm
we are in a strange situation where everybody is making a lot of noise about military action against iran but nobody in the part of that alliance actually wants to do it. there's no desire for it so do you hope that iran makes a mistake. somehow and then does it some kind of confrontation and then the iranians will be forced to come to the table you know begging for some kind of solution on american terms but you know i think that is dreaming that's a pine tree.
9:30 pm
the comedy show americans in america covering american news are called foreign agents. i want to show you something that happened a few days ago that demonstrates how ruthlessly pathetic our mainstream media is i'm talking all war to winning levels or stock all right i'm talking the dyson guy actually sells our mainstream media to people who want to suck the paint off their house that's how bad it is the radio show loud and clear brought the story my attention and it's incredible ok let's take a. country that our corporate media once you day hate for example north korea our corporate media despises them and can you blame when we look at the gross. our media doesn't want peace with north korea they want they don't want thawing tensions they don't want relations they want the average american to view north korea just like this all right that is all that is the entirety of the nuance.
