a family here that wasn't either directly affected or knows somebody who was. the room was full of people who perhaps were involved in the siege medics who ran towards the fire to tend to the wounded parents and teachers who decided to stay with the children and police officers who tried to save those who they could. every year we come here and to the grave sites in fact we visit the cemetery every month. people were very understanding they were coming from all over russia and nearby countries and i would not want events like these to unite people when he does. still to cause i think it's impossible to forget something like this 334 people died and so many children among them is it possible to forget it. is very important for one of the memory and remember the events in order for this horrible tragedy to never happen again i came here today with my daughter she asked me

entrance door remember that this must never happen again. we've been talking to those who were held hostage shouting to those who took part in the security operation they went back to the school and share their memories for a new r.t. documentary. this is true but the yarra as the last pope job must get a lot of our number like that to get us on our news of a pretty way to you know to destruct until we have full of just as the last nickel get a rush for a new new syria man ranch back in camera. him and distance from. you to occur to me for sure for you to. be able to share. or to go to the source of your remarks are going to perceive you from the bush sr was british and you were the world still opposed to going to music gosh knows to would not like this

a bit i'll say. he was a bit in the trust did you buy. implosion kind of stuff anybody keester old nicky was a picardy it was still with a pretty daughter. so he took it out. of the year and human blood just died cannot you please list some on what to look good with just shit is it that he has to. be on the loose one. eat. sleep for the replies to mr geezer so blue till we get our each applies to quit the wireless. push to try me up for. the service of a woman. who watched coworkers call it in. session when you're called on the flop. so you're going up here with the lies the school the school.

yard socialists or you see that that is the place to do season peace joy which could or should. not do the one thing i know which should be put to mr siward. to go to. with them to spew or do you seem to be what you believe it is that it's a student actually of course an apostle has to be vocal or should stop them spinning. suppressed should. a new coon watch the documentary info on a website called. so you case more divided than ever briggs it sounds today so tens of thousands take to

the streets in cities across the country to prime minister boris johnson announced that he would suspend polman to head of the e.u. divorce the decision means that m.p.'s will have less time to debate and influence the way the u.k. leaves the e.u. some say it is the only way to get briggs it over the finish line others though think it's undemocratic altie saskia taylor takes a closer look. boris johnson is big well boris he's being bold as brass and he wants breakfast come what may rather. so what you do when parliament what paypal you suspend it he needed how much permission to do that which he thought we're going to wait until october the 31st before getting on with our plans to take this country forward we're going to have a queen's speech and we're going to do it all the 14th and we've got to move ahead with a new legislative program but why can't the lawmakers a quick refresher if you've been avoiding the news because you just can't take the

b. word anymore for a number 1010 and to resume a who's carney getting away from it all hiking in the swiss alps spent 3 years trying to deliver to the referendum something we are definitely clear on bricks it means bricks it bricks it needs frex it wrecks it means bricks it and we're going to make a success of it but parliament had other ideas the patchy shouting had out even what have her key points had her reaching for how water then she found that rustles wasn't very happy about how to bit the old blighty and wouldn't budge on key points like the irish backstop to maintain a seamless border on the am. aisle they managed to thrash out a deal and me tried 3 times to push it through parliament no luck so she shut and left i do so with no ill will but with enormous and enduring gratitude to have had the opportunity to serve the country i love. and to boris

johnson ardent bricks a tear and leave cancer figurehead johnson promised to take the u.k. out of the european union by how do we do you don't know 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 peace will only have 2 weeks to try block a no deal bracks said everyone's crying foul saying it's a constitutional crisis others though have just had enough he's gone on for so long 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. not democratic it's a catastrophe so anybody who tried to bring it in would be courting disaster anyway we should get what the people voted for i think it's a constitutional outrage he wants to see. you know winston churchill said you know

it's self-important to blame any problems on others and he will be patted on the back for delivering bricks and when an election that's what he sees boris johnson should do everything he can. to get back for it if you can't get it through then he's out although where is cynics point out that what's really on democratic ah m.p.'s in westminster spending 3 years and piles of taxpayers' money by declaring over to leg breck said ok perhaps it was a little rogue to disrupt the queen's summer holiday in scotland and maybe suspending parliament was quite drastic for what's supposed to be a parliamentary democracy that's. carney 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 so maybe just maybe bush is going to get his way britain away

from brussels altie london. to the middle east now where israel has a military squad and so the love and the idea forces claimed to have used more than 100 ultimately shells along with battle helicopters were details now from television based journalist laura nizer. well the whole event really started and ended with on just 2 hours at around $415.00 local time a few anti to take projectiles were fired toward northern israel from lebanon by hezbollah soon admitting that they were the ones that fired the projectiles the i.d.f. almost immediately said there were no casualties not launched but they did respond with more than $100.00 of their own projectiles into lebanon both airstrikes as well as artillery those airstrikes coming from attack helicopters netanyahu said in a statement it's very soon after that there wasn't even

a scratch on any of those soldiers but an i.d.f. ambulance that was hit in a position near the northern keep a military position right beside that key boots which is right on the israel lebanon border now that initial projectile from from hezbollah in lebanon was in response to an attack in syria last week by israel that killed 2 hezbollah operatives operating from syria so they immediately said that this event was in response to those soldiers dying last week groupies are always says that things sort of. well or. operations against syria well let's not forget that israeli air force is. regularly violating the liberties of space. all the way to city where it is bombed. claims to be. positions i think we are told with the sink

much greater problem much greater the conflict that this group right now. called drooling this week against pharmaceutical giant johnson and johnson has found the company guilty of contributing to america's opioid crisis details after the break.

join me every 1st week on the alex simon sure and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics or business i'm sure business i'll see you there. welcome back earlier this week a judge in oklahoma ruled that the drug maker johnson and johnson is responsible for driving the state's opioid crisis and ordered it to pay

a $572000000.00 fine he said the pharmaceutical giant a drone a false and dangerous marketing campaign was downplayed the risk of addiction and directly contributed to deaths and johnson has said that it will appeal that decision another pharmaceutical company purdue pharma as also come under fire this week recently unsealed court documents it was revealed the company funded advocacy organizations which served from groups screenshots of e-mail correspondence published in a multi district opioid lawsuits have led to accusations the giant corporation called america's biggest drug epidemic we reached out to purdue pharma for comment we await any response nevertheless the company itself admits people affected should seek help as soon as possible while bird you farmer is prepared to defend itself vigorously in the r.p.i. actually it's a geisha the company has made clear that it sees little good coming from years to waste food suggestion and appeals to people and communities affected by the opiate

crisis need help now. in the late 1990 s. prescriptions for painkillers were made readily available as pharmaceutical companies assured doctors that their patients would not become addicted but it quickly became clear that many people were in fact becoming dependent with deaths from opioid overdoses reaching a record high of 42000 in 2060 and the following year the government declared a public health emergency currently an estimated 130 americans die every day as a result of opioid medicine obese health crisis is also pressing a huge strain on the u.s. economy and reportedly encouraging high rates of heroin use addiction specialist an 11 to told us that with the pharmaceutical industry and doctors have failed in their duties to customers and patients. well doctors certainly there are some responsibility for the opiate epidemic but i think to really understand how this happened in the united states it's necessary to realize that a whole generation of physicians was educated to believe that opioids are not

addictive as long as you're giving them to a patient in pain and this was a massive that was eagerly adopted by produced by johnson and johnson by janssen by t.v. by many other opioid manufacturers why because it helped their bottom line to sell more opioids so certainly doctors have to be reeducated as they are now they have to withhold opioids they have to stop prescribing opioids for ankle sprains for chronic pain conditions we would not want the pendulum to swing in the opposite direction and for people who really need opioids not to be able to get them so finding some kind of middle ground is going to be essential. following sunday's clashes in hong kong thing to end it with a heavy police presence on the streets protesters at earlier gathered at hong kong international airport setting a barricades the roads leading to the terminal what rains linking the city to the

airport was suspended along with some bus services the train station was also fun to lies by protesters. so those clashes came after a violent protest on saturday is people took to the streets despite a planned protest being burned your thought is that want anyone taking part in saturday's action could face prosecution u.s. president donald trump weighed in on the situation in the anti beijing protest should be handled in a humane fashion. i think if it weren't for the trade. being much bigger trouble i think it would have been much more violent i really believe john wants to make a deal and they know it puts us in a very bad position. way of handling the problems that i'd let him know that. you made. over terms would still go down well with the chinese foreign ministry saying he chose empathy with what he calls radicalized protesters on friday to more protest leaders were arrested on suspicion of organizing an

authorized release but they were released on bail one of them just to a wall was pictured earlier this month meeting a u.s. consular official that reignited suspicions western governments have been meddling in hong kong. professor at the shanghai international banking and finance institute benjamin chaldees convinced the unrest in hong kong is supported by external actors . the violent protesters. increased of violence in order to compensate for the decrease in the number of peaceful protesters were quickly turning their backs on most violent ones after they learned the true nature of their most violent warns some of which are seem very professional engaged or supported by external entity you can clear your client traces of beer a professional choreographed script and responses. with a western press the choice of wording and his response we're really used by any
