210 chicken chops in england and wales including morley's dixie chicken and chicken cottage he is real life stories to show people how they can go nigh free that's right when you pay is going to wing it when it comes to fighting knife crime the hash tag knife 3 campaigning periods digital posters as well as outreach programs where people think that local communities to talk about the risks of carrying weapons it will also see over 300000 boxes and fried chicken shops just like this across the country redesigned now that the campaign's hash tag night free and when you open it up on the inside you'll be able to read the stories of young people who shunned a life of crime in favor of school music nothing better than a snap and a good read write 0 7 it seems not everyone agrees other than accusations of mismanaging fun the choice of chickenshit. the campaign's target space has hit us full with some people is this some kind of joke why have you chosen chicken shops
1:15 pm
what's next ny free watermelons instead of investing in a public house approach to violent crime the home office have opted for yet another crude offensive and probably expensive campaign they would do better to invest in our communities not demonize them think it's 30 degrees idea you know because most of the people are using the knife are you young people so little let's talk about why don't those who don't talk about will. to do anything different is a great idea because you need to decode people. to afford to provide special night right i think they could maybe aim you know public money into more important things critics by labeling the campaign for too long gray said saying it no i need a few that fried chicken is the black community's choice of food but that knife of the black community's choice of well put the marketing company behind the campaign
1:16 pm
is confident it will bring results and has defended its choice of location saying it's a democratic space where the message will reach a wide range of people it was already kind of like it's kind of a new kind of opportunity really just the 2 screens where you talk to the young one of the 1000016 to 34 year olds who has an effect on one person one person can see this message and you know put down and i think it can have that ripple effects and it can change many people's lives so for us it has an impact to one person is to that reason i took actions against over something my phrase because there was an unfortunate is that an outside one of the 43 but again but it was a stop even if you got the opportunity to raise awareness and spread the message then of course we're going to choose an outlet where you all reach and that kind of those kind of people well as the old song says the clones to the left of me jokers to the right i'm stuck in the middle with you the left the liberal identity politics crowd throw up their hands are. racism the last time i looked at chicken shop all kinds of young people were eating it and on the right you have
1:17 pm
people who are similar tennis they are running down our police force by 21000 officers can you believe that since 2008 and then imagining that you can solve the consequent crime problems by writing messages on cardboard these messages on no wolf the cardboard being written on we need more police with more resources and more power to get to grips with what is a mob epidemic london last year over to new york can you believe that somebody has to do something about this much more effective than writing messages on cardboard. i'll still to come this hour washington's making moves to keep controversial surveillance powers in play for next year it's among all stories still ahead after the break.
1:18 pm
what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get except the reject. so when you want to be president as you. want to be that's. what you going to be for us this is what the 43 of them can't be good that i'm interested in the waters about. this city. so it's seemed wrong. but i'll. just don't call. me. yet to say proud disdain because as a kid and in detroit equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.
1:19 pm
back to the u.s. now in the controversial freedom act which is seen only pressure on congress coming from the national intelligence director he's calling for the reauthorization of the n.s.a. surveillance powers which is set to expire at the end of this year let's get more on this now across this for us is it kind of open in new york why is the trump administration so concerned about this act. so right now we've got the white house calling for the national security agency to be renewed in its authority
1:20 pm
to basically collect the call and phone records of americans now this is being echoed by dan coats he is the outgoing director of national intelligence and he is urging the renewal of the usa freedom act in his letter urging the renewal and he did acknowledge that the act was used the provision in the act allowing the phone records of americans to be collected that that was utilized and he basically urged congress to give the authority back to the n.s.a. out to renew their authority to engage in this program should they need to engage in it in the future of this is how damn coach put it in his letter as technology changes. and communications habits will continue to evolve and adapt. to these dynamic environments the administration supports reauthorization of this provision as well. now a letter was sent to the house judiciary committee by the u.s.
1:21 pm
civil liberties and privacy protection organizations that argued that the program actually represents a threat to americans freedoms they called for meaningful surveillance reforms and said that this puts the civil liberties of the u.s. public in jeopardy this is how they put it. the government implementation of the cool detail records program further demonstrates both the privacy threats posed by the program and the lack of use and it is highly concerning that it's 3 use to detect the fact that the n.s.a. was collecting records even beyond the broad authorize ation provided under the c.d.o. program the n.s.a. should not be permitted to resume this program now the law in question is the usa freedom act passed in 2015 and it has a provision which is very controversial that essentially allows the national security agency to tap the phones of and collect the phone data of suspects as
1:22 pm
well as the people that they are then in contact with the contacts of suspects even if those contacts have different phone companies now under the previous program before the freedom act the n.s.a. ended up basically collecting the records of billions and billions of records i mean just billions of records now the freedom act in 2015 drastically scaled back and reduced the amount of records that were being collected for example in 2016 the agency obtained orders to target 42 suspects and as a result collected 151000000 phone records and 2017 the number was 40 suspects who were targeted and 534000000 records were collected now there was an interesting concern raised about the freedom act in june of 28 jane when it was announced that due to technical irag. larry that this had basically caused the n.s.a. to collect far more phone records than it had legal authority to gather so at this
1:23 pm
point we've got the white house and we've got dan coats the outgoing director of national intelligence urging congress to reauthorize this controversial law the freedom act with this controversial provision regarding the authority of the n.s.a. to collect data and phone records on american citizens. and i guess once they got the powers they were never going to want to give them up lightly or right for now kind of open in new york thanks for that. the russian defense ministry released a video of its new strategic drone the hunter flying in tandem with fighter jets from the autonomous aerial vehicle is said to weigh 20 tons when fully loaded and is believed to have a range of 5000 kilometers is designed for surveillance operations and avoid detection by write up a few details about the drone performances as you might imagine officially disclosed at this stage. it's been a turbulent week for global markets with analysts and investors warning that
1:24 pm
a downturn could be on the horizon adding to those fears europe's economic powerhouse germany posted negative growth in the 2nd quarter of this year and looks to be heading for recession we also have frankfurt based financial analyst at the marcus cruel for his thoughts on the increasingly ominous signs. well we are heading for a global recession i think yes we are very clearly the signs are not very good and the epicenter of the problem though is not the united states it's not asia although there are also problems coming from the trade dispute and other elements but the center of this crisis i think would be europe we have a number of imbalances that have been accrued as a result of what i would call in monetary policies i do think that negative interest rates 0 interest rates and quantitative easing have created a lot of problems that are now looking to rebalance and since we have been doing this for a long time i'm afraid that this one could be quite severe recession that we're
1:25 pm
heading into many commentators say the negative data from germany as evidence that the u.s. china trade war is already taking its toll well again about the conflict along what bracks it could mean for the global economy. when you look at the trade dispute between the united states and china. several elements one is i do not think that currently there is a huge impact from that on the world economy and on the business cycle there is a potential long term impact if protections and takes hold and world trade starts to be by all types of new obstacles and those tariffs or non-tariff obstacles it is a good scapegoat for other elements and for other players who basically do not like to see the imbalances that they have been helping are trying themselves. 1st of all i do not think there will be a deal because to reach
1:26 pm
a deal the european commission would have to reopen the negotiations and they cannot reopen the negotiations without losing face they have been repeating that they are not going to do that so many times that they cannot do it without with losing face and this is not so much about political choice but about the personal face losing of the of the acting people in the european politicians. a lot of what we have heard about the dangers of a no deal drugs it is just fear mongering actually what what the. minded people in the british politics called project fear i think that is a real thing when you think of years before the world has taken place there was the same kind of fear mongering actually it was assumed that britain would fall into a severe recession immediately if people voted to leave the european union and nothing of the sort happened to the country so i do not see any empirical evidence or fact to evidence that points in the direction that there will be an economic
1:27 pm

1:28 pm
why a paradise with some around turned into a round the experimentation field for agricultural chemicals we know that these chemicals have consequences they are major irritant there's no question otherwise why would the chemical company workers themselves be geared up that suited up locals attempt to combat the on regulated experiments but often in day you have many of these people one foot into the biotech pharma and the other foot in the government regulatory bodies this kind of collusion is reprehensible while the battle goes on the chemicals continue to poison hawaii and its people so one has to ask the question whether there is a form of environmental research going on in hawaii whether these companies feel they can get away with this because the people have less political power.
1:29 pm
or. i'm going to see for just our good. going it's it's it's going good. i am involved with a lady friend at the moment she was in california i live in minnesota so there's a distance there we need to know each other we talk. it's not easy making new friends after something like this. well what do you do before you came here where did you were. before you came here when you live. well death row they don't know what to do with that you know that. it's just one of those situations where you have to realize that not everyone out here is out to ruin your life there are some who are actually interested in knowing you and helping you.
