to protect oil fields for u.s. presence and even suggested. or oil field can or. even suggested to operate. in order. to operate to the country. what could happen if politicians stop hiding real what could happen if politicians stop hiding their real intention. u.s. troops out of syria a couple of the. u.s. troops out of syria a couple of weeks ago that the but then. i'm the true close close there is in.

defending ourselves if the british admitted we want bragg's there because we hate foreigners if france admitted we do because we hate foreigners if france admitted we don't want bragg's there because we hate the british if germans admitted with 9 for exit because we hate the british if germans admitted we're so nice these days because of well israel admitted these days because of well israel admitted in there i'm not going to go that yes an american president just admitted that he now i'm not going to go that yes an american president just admitted that he's only interested in the oil things may never be the same only a. boy things may never be the same.

a proposal by the brics that party leader nigel farrar he wanted boris johnson to ditch his even through all agreement party leader nigel farrar he wanted boris johnson to ditch his even through all agreement and form an alliance for a hard break sit in the upcoming general election with over consent and form an alliance for a hard break sit in the upcoming general election although the conservatives have now ruled that out well if you are still confused by break services have now ruled that as well as how are but are still confused by breaks if there is help at hand because a parent in the u.k. has found a way to explain the hectic an confused hand because a parent in the u.k. has found a way to explain the hectic and confusing process to children which you do a woman published a picture book about animals who vote doing process to children would you do a woman published a picture book about animals who vote to leave the book they then debate and fail to decide on what story they leave the book they then debate and fail to decide on

what story they do want to be in the animals represent real political figures too involved in the process include do you want to be in the animals represent real political figures too involved in the process including prime ministers past and present the author says the pig is david cameron leading prime ministers past and present the author says the pig is david cameron who came up with the vote while the hamster is to reason may fail to get her and who came up with the votes while the. hampster is theresa may can fail to get her deal approved or a johnson meanwhile is the cag in fails to appreciate it difficult proved boris johnson meanwhile is the cag in fails to appreciate the difficulties ahead we talk to the author so the younger of the year ahead we talk to the author so the younger of the year very very very young and the audience probably will have heard of the very very very young and the audience probably will have heard of the

heard things on the news or on the radio. and no i don't think it's on the news or on the radio. and no i don't believe it's it's too young to start to explain i don't believe it's it's too young to start to explain the notion of countries or people exercising their democratic right and notion of countries or people exercising their democratic rights discussing political issues . it's actually discussing political issues. it's it's it's it's suitable for all ages i think because it delivers an important moral suitable for all ages i think because it delivers an important moral story which is about extending to understand one another there came

a bash story which is about extending to understand one another never came about after a poll did show that 32 percent of british parents cannot explain the brakes of process after a poll did show that 32 percent of british parents cannot explain the brakes of process to their children that is despite the majority of youngsters recognising the term used to their children that is despite the majority of youngsters recognising the term the author again says it is important for children to understand briggs is the author again says it is important for children to understand. bret's is an incredibly important issue that not just children or adults out have been struggling to understand credibly important issues that not just children models out have been struggling to understand for the past 3 and a half years one of the reasons for the past 3 and a half years one of the reasons that it's been very difficult to get your head around it is that it's a story that keeps evolving and he says it's been very difficult to get your head

around it is that it's a story that keeps evolving and he's extremely complicated political issue so here's an opportunity to ukraine the complicated political issue so here's an opportunity to use a story an allegorical story that would allow. a story an allegorical story that would allow it from textual explanation of this of this particular issue how it textual explanation of this of this particular issue and why i support the children that children will live with the consequences of what happens from what i support the children that children will live with the consequences of what happens in the coming weeks and months and years through rest of the alliance most likely in the coming weeks and months and years through rest of the alliance most likely. staying in the u.k. a new report there commissioned by the home office are available just starting in

the u.k. a new poll there commissioned by the home office survey of the sterett is driving women into prostitution claims that criminalizing the industry sterrett is driving women into prostitution claims that criminalizing the industry is putting them in danger we'll tell you more a bit later on in the problem. is putting them in danger we'll tell you more a bit later on in the private. the u.s. has speaker has criticized donald trump surprise. the u.s. has speaker has. despised donald trump's approach to china saying the u.s. should actually be tougher with beijing nancy pelosi to china saying the u.s. should actually be tougher with beijing nancy pelosi also pointed out what she believes were mistakes the president has made in his dealings he also pointed out what she believes were mistakes the president has made in his dealings with the we have leverage so what did the president do else with the. we have leverage so what

did the president do you know you need the e.u. by putting tariffs on them so they are now looking out for themselves yes we need the e.u. by putting tariffs on them so they are now looking out for themselves yes it has to be more comprehensive so that china knows they can do this anymore the remarks has to be more comprehensive so that china knows they can do this anymore the remarks do come in strong tries to deescalate his current trade war with china however the u.s. congress is now mr trump tries to deescalate his current trade war with china however the u.s. congress is now passing bills that could easily make matters worse as you go as you down off now explain the passing bills that could easily make matters worse as you go as you down off now explains one country one foreign policy sounds clear. one country one foreign policy sounds clear and makes sense right well not for the us it's foreign affairs line and makes sense right well not for the us it's foreign

affairs line has been lately suffering from a severe by the polar disorder and the best team has been lately suffering from a severe by the polar disorder and the best example of this is china donald trump's infamous trade war with beijing example of this is china donald trump's infamous trade war with beijing has been taking its toll on both sides but earlier last month it seemed that there was and has been taking its toll on both sides but earlier last month it seemed that there was a glimmer of hope that was coming to an end there's nothing bigger a glimmer of hope was coming to an end there's nothing bigger than what we're doing with china i think it's important that these are the questions are that what we're doing with china i think it's important that these are the questions are asked and as you know we have the vice premier of china one of those 3 spirit as you know we

have the vice premier of china one of the most respected men in all of china in the world for that we have great respect for many great directed men and all of china in the world for that we have great respect for me great friendship with him. we've come to a very substantial friendship with him. and we've come to a very substantial. phase one deal taking the edge off relations of. phase one deal taking the edge off relations ahead of potentially groundbreaking talks is a good tactic unless all turns out of potentially groundbreaking talks is a good tactic unless all positive facts are reversed a few days later bypassing the hong kong civil rights positive affair. reversed a few days later by passing the hong kong civil rights act if america does not speak out for human rights in china because our act if america does not speak out

for human rights in china because of commercial interest then we lose all moral authority is to have commercial interest. then we lose our moral authority to speak after human rights anyplace in the world and the villagers speak after human rights any place in the world and the validity of hong kong's plight is a relevant here either you want to keep beijing happy and ignore t. of hong kong's plight is a relevant here either you want to keep beijing happy and ignore the protests or you do the right thing but inevitably get the protests or you do the right thing but inevitably get on the wrong side of mainland china delusion on that i would like to stress again that on the wrong side of mainland china delusion on that i would like to stress again that in response to the us is wrong decisions and wrong practices harming china as it's in response to the us is wrong decisions and

wrong practices harming china's interests we will definitely take strong counter measures to defend our sovereignty interests we will definitely take strong counter measures to defend our sovereignty security and development interests and you'd think one mistake would be a security and development interests and you'd think one mistake would be enough to learn from but no because once again trump tried sweet talking big enough to learn from but no because once again trump tried sweet talking beijing earlier this week china and the usa are working on selecting a new site for something earlier this week china and the usa are working on selecting a new site for signing of phase one of trade agreement the new location be announced president shining a phase one of trade agreement the new location we announced president shame president truman will do signing meanwhile u.s. lawmakers passed g.m.

president truman will do signing meanwhile u.s. lawmakers passed the tehran act that would allow washington to punish nations recognizing the r.v. tehran act that would allow washington. to punish nations recognizing the island as part of china but china isn't the only country writing america's diplomacy swing's island as part of china but china isn't the only country riding america's diplomacy swings a nato ally turkey was sure glad to hear washington was intent on a nato ally turkey was sure glad to hear washington was intent on lifting its sanctions on the country so the sanctions will be lifted on lifting its sanctions on the country so the sanctions will be lifted or less something happens that we're not happy with these satisfaction didn't last long as something happens that we're not happy with these satisfaction didn't last long bill probably right up until the moment the u.s. congress recognized the longueville probably right up until the moment the u.s.

congress recognized the armenian genocide by the turks a century ago the barbarism committed against them in armenian genocide by the turks a century ago the barbarism committed against i mean people genocide the turkish president is really now and for not mincing people like a genocide the turkish president is really now and for not mincing his words on america well he's stayed true to himself this time to one of the words on america well he's stayed true to himself this time to one of the. premier i'm addressing u.s. public opinion and the entire world. from here i'm addressing u.s. public opinion and the entire world the step which was taken is worthless and we do not recognize that the step which was taken is worthless and we do not recognize that you can't have your cake and eat it such incoherency could pass as strategy

you can't have your cake and eat it such incoherency could pass as strategy as long as the us was getting something out of it instead it seems for as long as the us was getting something out of it instead it seems for every step forward washington takes a step back eventually making every step forward washington takes a step back eventually making nations wary of even developing serious ties with well such illusions wary of even developing serious ties with well such an unreliable partner because down of there we're going to take a quick break we're back there in tune on reliable partner because he's done a fair we're going to take a quick break we're back there when it's. it's .

if these banks like j.p. morgan our deutsche bank are unable. if these banks like j.p. morgan are deutsche bank are unable to settle trades because they don't have the cash to settle the trade then i'll just settle trades because they don't have the cash to settle to trade then when the end of the quarter comes they're going to have to by law if they if there is the rule of law when the end of the quarter comes they're going to have to by law if they if there is the rule of law anymore and that's an open question announce that they are insolvent and therefore they get us on a more and that's an open question announce that they are insolvent and therefore they're going to set off a cascade and a contagion. will be a continuation of that to set off a cascade and a contagion. will be

a continuation of the 2008 crisis but much much worse. it's 1000 a crisis but much much worse. than. how we are. now we all think a language that we speak for granted it's like air that we breathe we don't notice it in fact most of the language that we speak for granted it's like air that we breathe we don't notice it in fact most of us believe that we simply perceive reality the way that it is in fact many of us believe that we simply perceive reality the way and it is in fact we know many years of psychological experiments of past mary far from truth don't see things through years of psychological experiments of past mary far. truthfully delts see things just the way that they are instead the world that we their internal world we live in is highly just the

way that they are instead the world that we their internal world we live in is highly constructed by the structures of our brains but also by the structures around lightly constructed by the structures of our brains but also by the structures around languages and cultures that tell us how things. are just cultures that tell us how things. are again i'm in the u.k. a new report commissioned by the home of. hello again i'm in the u.k. a new report commissioned by the home office that says that this territory is driving women into prostitution and the crime of you says says that this territory

is driving women into prostitution and they criminalize ation of the industries putting sex workers in danger shutting. of the industries putting sex workers in danger shouting. looks at the findings. all starting pushing families on to the bread line he looks at the findings. all ceratin pushing families on to the bread line children into destitution and women into prostitution it's a complicated subject children into destitution and women into prostitution it's a complicated subject but whatever you want to call it from the more glamorous like the world's oldest profession to the more dark but whatever you want to call it from the more glamorous like the world's oldest profession to the more dark like survival where there's no doubt that women choosing sex for money is a product of poverty like survival where there's no doubt that women choosing sex for money is a product of poverty and according to government research there's now a direct link between experiences of sexual violence and according to government

research there's now a direct link between experiences of sexual violence and abuse and the. commission of a like they say short session of the united kingdom i didn't i was glad to see and see in the government report some acknowledgement of the way that criminalization undermine safety report some acknowledgement of the way that criminalization undermine safety they said financial need and criminalization were a perfect cocktail if they said financial need and criminalization were a perfect cocktail of conditions that were undermining sex workers safety and that's a very important acknowledged conditions that were undermining sex workers safety and that's a very important acknowledgement if you suffer violence you won't come forward and report it to the policeman if you suffer violence you won't come forward and report it to the police because you're worried that you yourself will end up being arrested for prostitution offenses the recent surge because you mission by the.

self will end up being arrested for prostitution i mean if i'm offenses away from reporting a commission member of any sex or home office bound as women move away from calling many sex workers what a regulated environment to make them feel safer plus they feel are they able to report on a regulated environment to make them feel safer. they feel are they able to report crimes of abuse for fear of being prosecuted themselves plus it's a worry of police reins of abuse for fear of being prosecuted themselves plus it's a worry of police rave crackdowns being a constant threat but the biggest issue is the financial poverty and crackdowns being a constant threat but the biggest issue is the financial poverty and for many women it's a matter of making ends meet and what does increase the levels of and for many women it's a matter of making ends meet what does increase the levels of prostitution is an increase in poverty and if people are really genuinely concerned about prostitution

is an increase in poverty and if people are really genuinely concerned about levels of prostitution that's what has to be tackled 89 percent of the levels of prostitution that's what has to be tackled 89 percent of the austerity cuts have actually been against women and single mothers have been particularly cuts have actually been against women and single mothers have been particularly badly hit and people with disabilities so those people you know they leave badly hit and people with disabilities so those people you know that we see most often represented in sex work are the ones that have been most that we see most often represented in sex work are the ones that have been most impacted by austerity but there's the abolition of position where feminists argue stim practive by austerity but there's the abolition of position where feminists argue that sex work and prostitution is inherently abusive and the cause and consequence of women's and that sex work and prostitution is inherently abusive and the cause and consequence of women's
