6:03 am
points like the irish backstop to maintain a seamless border on the emerald isle they managed to thrash out a deal though and may tried 3 times to push it through parliament no luck so she shared a tear and left i do so with no ill will but with enormous and enduring gratitude to have had to the opportunity to serve the country i love. and to boris johnson ardent bricks a tear and leave come figurehead johnson promised to take the u.k. out of the european union by how do we do you know no deal and that's really riled so where are we now well just 2 months from b. day and with parliament due to be suspended before it's. even got going and p.s. will only have 2 weeks to try to block a new deal brant said everyone's crying foul saying it's a constitutional crisis others though have just had enough he's gone on for so long
6:04 am
now we just need to get on with it because it's just causing more trouble whole process is discussed in. parliament has been bypassed and is. not democratic it's a catastrophe so anybody who tried to bring it in would be to. get what the people voted for i think it's a constitutional outrage he wants to see. you know when. it's self-important to blame any problems on others and he will be patted on the back for delivering bricks were no lection that's what he sees boris johnson should do everything he can. to get back if you can't get it through he's out although where is cynics point out that what's really on democratic ah m.p.'s in westminster spending 3 years in piles of taxpayers' money by dithering over to leg breck said ok perhaps it was a little wrong to disrupt the queen's summer holiday in scotland and maybe
6:05 am
suspending parliament was quite drastic for what's supposed to be a parliamentary democracy that's apparently taking back control but then this is boris johnson who's never been one for the convention and it has been 3 years already just about every hour for new explored every negotiation tactic used every amendment can sit it so maybe just maybe it's going to get his way and bill does britain away from brussels. r.t. london. british political commentator john gaunt told us he believes this impasse over breakfast is now was forced to take the dramatic step of suspending parliament . i think you left with no choice i think he sidestepped around recording now has given him permission to suspend parliament and they keep talking about 4 weeks exactly for day number one cause a 1000000 people marched on a petition 17400000 people democratically voted in the largest democratic exercise this country's ever known chile so let's put the petition to one side yes i believe
6:06 am
boris johnson was delivered whether it be the 4 bucks or them directors like me want. to know terms i don't know but it certainly looks as if there are trees amazed dead in the water and boris johnson is for once as a politician trying to deliver what he promised i think we should be saluting their . elsewhere the day the daily caller new sites reveal that a number of us democratic presidential hopefuls have been taking donations from hedge fund managers the stake in puerto rico's soaring debt that's despite the fact that those same candidates have been making repeated attacks on donald trump for failing to address the island territories desperate economic situation.
6:07 am
puerto rico is just like the rest of the united states except it isn't and if their votes don't count in the final election why should presidential candidates care. bunty candidates 5 moderators 2 debates and only one mention of puerto rico in democratic debate that took place in florida home wolf want point to me when puerto rican and these are the progressive what comes to going after donald trump anything
6:08 am
goes even the all but forgotten puerto rico democrat certainly did speak up when trump snub puerto rico didn't sign a disaster relief bill at 1st. it's shameful the way we treated puerto rico when the islands i'm not even sure people in the president's administration knew poor 3 kings are all citizens if we're talking about territories let's make sure the people of d.c. actually get senators let's make sure the people of puerto rico are actually treated like fellow u.s. citizens that they are and let's make sure that we have some handle on the financial future of this country are very honorable of them but what is not honorable is cashing in on puerto rico's difficulties and big hedge fund managers have been lending lots of money to puerto rico money the government cannot pay back and those very same hedge funds are now funding the democrats joe biden has gotten roughly $25000.00 from hedge funds like oak tree capital black rock and to comic capital and he's not alone
6:09 am
a coalition of puerto rican activists is calling for the democrats to give that money back these hedge funds have pushed a program over stary team privatization in order to secure dep amens in that in many cases could not be paid by the puerto rican government the lives of countless puerto ricans have been destroyed as a result greater ricans will be denied a better future if hedge funds are allowed to continue to profit from austerity and privatisations on the island you can either stand with the people of puerto rico or with the hedge funds that have harmed puerto rico you can't do both but so far only bernie sanders and elizabeth warren have returned their donations these democrats did not pay any attention to puerto. can issues it till they had an opportunity to criticize the president and isn't that ironic isn't that so hypocritical that it wasn't until they had an opportunity to fight a criticism with president trump that they found puerto rico even an issue for them
6:10 am
they should have been addressing this the entire time if this was important to them the only reason it's important now is because they found a way to criticize donald trump these hedge fund do nations are the core of hypocritical the fact that these democrats can sit back take these donations where people are profiting off of the economic problems in puerto rico and then at the same time say that they're concerned about this country is one of the worst things that i've seen i think when these democrats accept donations they don't check and i think they check only when it's convenient for them and they want to look at donald trump's campaign donations but they don't want to look at themselves and they don't want to look at the fact that they're taking donations off of the very thing that they say that they're against so far hedge funds making money off of puerto rico's debt crisis have donated roughly $230900.00 to democrats who are running in the 2020 alexion imagine what that kind of money could do for the people of puerto rico

kaleb mop and artsy new york. environmental activists. that nestlé seeking permission to make millions of liters of water a day from the true springs in florida's sun to reverse split of a push by the food and beverage company doing crease its bottled water production but about this river it runs through the north of the state but look at the rich diversity beautiful isn't it among the animal species that live there for instance 50 breeds of its ecosystems are considered the risk because of overpumping meantime indigenous communities up north and neighboring coming to revulse have been complaining of nestle's activities saying they've been losing access. their clean water over it they've launched a petition in fact calling on their government to stop permitting the exploitation of the local rivers well i can tell you we asked nestle for comment they haven't given us a response yet but of course the official line is we can tell you that the company has maintained that he is to all relevant regulatory standards further it seeks to
6:12 am
ensure the protection of preservation of the rivers it draws water from we got the thoughts firsthand from river keeper john quarterman to see what he thinks of nestle's latest plans then i think that senator the river already has problems too little water last thing it is nestle drawing more water out and selling it back to us and plastic bottles that people will then have to clean up on the rivers and springs and have a right near this nestle public water. water now. our springs really hard to rebuild so those on their roofs madison county that's on the rookie river which is in our base. they paid if i recall correctly the grandson with $128.00 a few decades ago lets all the. they get
6:13 am
a huge amount of water and good in bottles like this were to people through early on the river so in addition to that pollution it's also causing the local to go right now. because we need that water or drinking for agriculture or industry we don't really need it to be making sure the swiss company for something that nobody actually needs. now we tend to think of the tech industry as being at the forefront of tomorrow's world and also leading the way in equality and diversity among stuff but it seems one european web developers conference in germany didn't get that memo despite promising a rich and diverse lineup it's canceled october's event as a number of delegates objected to no women speakers taking part this year's conference seems to have gone with the white males only conference lineup shame is 2019 we can do better there were numerous speakers with 2 assessments myself
6:14 am
included that works up in the session but no women at all i'm not comfortable that well the organizers were keen to point out that out of $250.00 applicants to speak at the conference only one was female over critics say that was a bit of a wet excuse because those therefore beyond the invention of ridged more to women anyway we are star guess for their thoughts on the controversy. the fact is that women are still half the population think we're just marginally over there half the people organizing it seem to be a group of men it was their duty. the requirement to ensure that they had a wide range of people to speak about the issues that they wanted to debate when you want to be diverse you know on some occasions will be more willing speakers on some occasions with more bad speakers but he's also the also the child age to say
6:15 am
if you're going to have people in and effectively racially or sexually profiled i just say we're not interested what your speech is going to date we're not interested your level of talent we're not interested in the relevancy all were interesting is the color of your skin or your gender that is a joke the point is not about qualifications the point is about a culture which i'm sorry to say you seem to represent which is which is about accusing women of daring to be in your workplaces that would be a further comment if the women had applied local who got pushed out what a woman applied there was basically no shampoo that's not how will the earth is that the fault of men it's very unlikely in the real world. that somebody would just not want somebody to speak on the grounds of their gender i don't think that's very realistic i don't think that's something that's really going to happen i don't just don't think it's it's factually accurate it does happen i'm sorry to say i don't i'm sorry to say it does happen i'm glad to say it's not absolutely
6:16 am
widespread but you may be in your little. haven in which everything is right and rosy but for lots of women though lots of ways in which women are excluded however competent they are i'm sorry that still happening i wish it wasn't but unless it's get spoken about i don't think much will change. you all of us in stossel thanks for watching us today the state says 16 pas one coming up 2 feuding parties form a new coalition government today please all change there politically again scuttling a power play by the country's anti migrant interior minister the stay with us is a brilliant mobile when we come back.

most influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization of america. hello gang good afternoon so it leads got a new coalition government this thursday it's off the 5 star movement struck a last minute deal with the democratic party to scuttle an attempt by the country's popular but deeply divisive interior minister to take power 2 weeks ago mattel's salvini brought down his own ruling coalition in the hope of trying to trigger elections but thanks to his rivals negotiations that's not happened and now he's calling the agreement and the from to democracy. because it's something the real truth 60000000 italians are held hostage by the 100 m.p.'s that are afraid of losing. this is the real truth there are just 100 m.p.'s clinging to see if you can
6:20 am
call that a democracy but then don't be surprised if people say i got why do i need to vote well talian politics is a bit of a minefield some describing the latest crisis as being the most craziest yet what resulted is in 2 bitter enemies strolling hand in hand to form a new government that's the democratic party and the 5 star movement of them a little president today. we told the president we have reached a deal with the democratic party that would allow concert to be the next premier and try to form a long lasting government. but we have expressed to the president of the republic how much support for the attempt to create a new government with a new political majority why have the 2 forces being brought together well this always all is the result of the 4 partners a 5 star movement headed by the anti immigration interior minister.
6:21 am
trying to pull down the last government in the hope of having snap elections that's because he was void by polls showing that he was on 38 to 39 percent in terms of approval ratings and thinking that perhaps he could go it alone and form his new own government if they were fresh elections held in italy but that's not to be as these 2 are the parties who both perhaps like being in the polls able to form this next government so we need know one of italy's perhaps most popular politicians the moment has been frozen cold to the government described as being made. it is that millions of italians are probably wondering why vote if those who were kicked out by elections reinterview are back door just for political games before the crisis is not yet over this still
6:22 am
a lot of tricky hurdles for the new italian government to meander through including creating a new budget that brussels will approve the new government will be led by just 70 conti's she was the prime minister in the last coalition government and i'm going to buy donald trump and she certainly berates will he be the glue that holds these 2 parties together or is he going to fall into very different directions with parties with pretty much at most points opposing ideology there is still a chance that might say yourself being he could get his wish and italy could see snap elections before those scheduled ones at the moment pasted in for 2023. so an expert a palestinian student who's been barred from entering the united states over facebook posts made by his friends so until near old. jew we who had the skewed
