the link up by. both the russian managed general election campaign gets under way in the u.k. parish johnson attempts to smear his main rival jeremy corbyn claim the labor party started with who said no but that's propelled poisonings. a major us network acknowledges it didn't run explosive allegations of sexual abuse by the disgraced financier geoffrey epstein because the story didn't meet his father tauriel standards. and desperation in a graph because protests and violence gripped the country on a scale unseen since the overthrow of for them things they're.

very welcome you're watching r.t. international with me nicky airing our top story this hour general election campaigning in the u.k. is called off to a bad tempered start this wednesday with boris johnson launching a series of scathing attacks on the opposition leader the prime minister appealed to the public to vote for his conservative party rather than jeremy corbin's labor which he claimed has failed to take a tough enough line on russia. come with. a government that believes britain should stand in the world with generally keeping in the labor party who sided with with russia who did kill easily in the streets. the prime minister there in the grab years referring to the script paul poisoning case back in march 28th seen of course russia did get the blame for this consistently denied all the allegations ever since because the prime minister they're bringing up the scandal to basically . discredit jeremy corbyn as part of the campaign going forward and it wasn't the

only anti russian the negative russian reference that's been used so far in the campaign the prime minister has also compared jeremy corbyn the stalin saying that he's attacking the wealth of the landowning classes while in response the labor m.p. emily song has self has raised questions over boris johnson's top advisor dominic cummings who spent 3 years in russia after he graduated in the 1990 s. and the prime minister is also being accused of a cover up as number 10 is failing refusing to publish a report by the security and intelligence services about russian insult in british politics and then i saw him break asked why so we are bound to ask what is downing street so worried about why would they not welcome an official report into attempted russian interference in the 2016 referendum where the successful all otherwise and i fear it is because they realize that this report will lead to other questions about the links between russia and brics it and with the current

leadership of the tory party which risks the rating their election campaign however mr crispin share responded by saying there's nothing unusual in delaying the publication of the report ahead of the election as it needed to be examined and there was no proof of collusion it drove the rich for her to suggest that somehow the conservative party and this government is links to this information given the way that her own party leadership is on to the responsibility of her own party leadership knows there is no evidence to suggest. the kremlin has successfully engaged in interference in our electoral processes so with 5 weeks to go until the election the month slinging has already started with all the parties trying to compromise each other but perhaps the best way to compromise you is to mention or perhaps indicate any allegations or any links whatever to do with russia

talk radio host down column a strong go i'm told is that cheap political point scoring is deflecting attention from crucial domestic challenges. when we voted to leave the levy has to get her exit it wasn't just about the playground of all of their houses or both of their houses this is exactly the kind you dropping people off saddled with is just complete. nonsense i think the british a letter of fed up of this sort of garbage let's talk about policy is let's talk about what you're going to do to the country and less how our democratic right and how about this for a change when we do vote for whoever we vote for and whoever wins one a year in parliament actually implement the what we the people tell you to do are you. like you should have done over the e.u. referendum result 3 years ago we have your optional parliament 16 and i'm not even

sure after this election where there will be any less rottenness let's hear from the serious let's have them debated let's not have facebook spats and all he said she said and did you know these quotes and to reach a decision 2015 it's stupid but let's get the politics. artie's in case you missed it has also been exploring the attempts by british politicians to discredit one another by highlighting their opponents is dubious ties to russia you can find the full version under. britain's labor party has expressed concerns that this man dominic cummings the prime minister boris johnson's most senior aide has to be. right with britain great by election fever it's a bad time to have your name in the same sentence as russia and a good way to smear your opponent. can result in blog says that he spent 94 to 97 being trained up to undermine the

west at some indistinct point decades into the future just kidding actually the blog just says this i worked in russia 994 to 7 on various projects. and last but not least prime minister boris johnson how could he possibly be a russian agent i hear you are one he's called. buddies true then to be a fan of the russian rubles and the most incriminating parts of all 3 he won shook hands with yours truly at a party true story and that's all it takes to. i need to video appears to cast doubt on the impartiality of america's a.b.c.

news channel and its a network counterclaims the station quashed her explosive interview with an accuser of disgraced tycoon geoffrey epstein back in 2050 who allegedly detailed the convicted paedophiles predatory behavior the following is part of the video obtained by transparency clear project a very tense. with everything. i tried for 3 years to get on to no avail and now it's all coming out and think well of revelations that i originally had the all of it i was so right now that every day i get more and more just like. it was what we had it was unreal now this came to us from an insider within the network an insider who currently works at a.b.c. news leaked us this tape and that person is still on the inside so we expect more to come here it's quite telling that this insider leaked this tape to project their it's us and not the washington post the new york times c.b.s. or c.n.n.

because they seem to want to protect the people that we're working with jeffrey epstein again amy roebuck saying that epstein was blackmailing people there's a lot of powerful people on those airplanes that amy is 100 percent certain that he did not commit suicide i don't know why she won't say that publicly but there she is in the leaked tape on the set of the program saying these things when nobody is looking for a reminder of how this story developed 66 year old multimillionaire jeffrey epstein was convicted of soliciting prostitution from a minor in 2008 and was then registered as a sex offender in july this year he was arrested again and was about to face trial over the alleged creation of a sex trafficking network charges he repeatedly denied a month later epstein was found dead in his cell in an apparent suicide artie's son brings us more. live t.v. one o one check your mike then check it again project veritas has published bombshell

footage of an a.b.c. anchor recorded in late august shortly after the disgraced billionaire was found dead in his new york jail cell amy roebuck said over 3 years ago she had exclusive material relating to peter following material which had direct testimony from one of the victim's photos as well as other evidence of his dealings which implicated high profile figures like bill clinton prince andrew she told me everything she did everything she was writing for 12 years making history come out we convinced her to talk to us it was unbelievable what we had cleared with everything robot claims the story was stopped from going to 2015 because according to the people up stuff as no one knew who was funny that because just a few years before they've been happily sipping champagne on his manhattan townhouse you see back in 20 media heavyweights gathered out to dinner and on of

the u.k.'s prince andrew a dinner which was arranged on hosted by you guessed it south and among those who wouldn't know who epstein was were both a.b.c. and c.b.s. phosphor 2015 managed to entice virginia robots to free one of the victims out of hiding produces a few her and her family out to the a.b.c. h.q. in new york and hosted them and one of the big apple's most luxurious hotels what they got was the scoop of a lifetime to free through wind open the door in the muck to world of apps tide and his entourage as they flew around the walls on his private jet dubbed the elite express palace found out that we have her whole allegations are false andrew and threatened us a 1000000 different ways i viewed the b.b.c. interview. as a potential game changer appearing on a.b.c. with its wide viewership would have been the 1st time for me to speak out against

the government for basically looking the other way and to describe the anger and betrayal victims felt i was defeated once again by the very people i spoke out against and once again my voice was silenced i could not believe that for a minute bill network like a.b.c. had backed down and given while this exposition was saucy more salacious than the reports on that side it wasn't the fust time his morals have been called into question stories piecing together a tangled web involving bill clinton and prince andrew had sophos before images of the finance his little black book with hundreds of victims names a mug alongside testimony from a 14 year old go claiming to have had sexual relations with a 1000000000 manhattanites gossipped about how new york city was being ferried around on his private plane to his private island along with the coterie of very young women but all those revelations just like robotics were put back in the troll

at the time not all are reporting there are standards to air but we have never stopped investigating this story ever since we've had a team on this investigation and substantial resources dedicated to it that work has led to a 2 hour documentary and 6 point podcast that will air in the new year you'd be forgiven if that rings a bell because a.b.c.'s response is uncommon the similar to n.b.c.'s comment about its coverage or lack of of media mogul harvey weinstein in the end b.c. killed the story because they said you did not have enough facts it didn't reach their level of journalism yes we had multiple named women in every draft of the story we had audio of harvey weinstein admitting to a crime but more pertinently they ordered us to stop and it seems a.b.c. was not the only one to fall into the trap of maybe. epstein to evade true media scrutiny but its vanity fair and the new york times had several allegations of his

inappropriate sexual behavior but chose to stick to safe stories on things like the origins of his wealth and was sought careful to avoid reporting some of the more suspicious details surrounding his death are a lot of men in those planes a lot of men who visited that island a lot of powerful man who came into our and so do i think he was killed 100 percent yes and maybe a.b.c. was right no one knew who was or maybe it didn't want to get on the wrong side of some very powerful people people who if you believe the room was might just now have blood on their hands abstains lawyer contacted the a.b.c. network at the time saying the allegations being made by the accuser interviewed by the channel could not be trusted while the anchor has backtracked slightly since the video was leaked. and you were about to explain that her comments were made in

a private moments of frustration but founder of project veritas again james o'keefe says a.b.c. doesn't shy away from high profile cases you can see how frustrated amy robock when you listen when you watch this tape it directly contradicts what a.b.c. news is saying publicly now about not having enough corroboration there they're fine airing the allegations against maybe brett kavanaugh for or trump or anybody else but when it comes to bill clinton and some of these folks 'd that are mentioned by amy in this hot mike tape they say they just didn't have enough corroboration i'm not sure how a.b.c. news defines a corroboration when it comes to credible witnesses talking about sexual assault but the only conclusion i can draw is that a lot of these network executives are very close to the people they were hanging out with jeffrey epstein per amy amy roebuck. playschool commentator and new york observer columnist andre walker gave us his thoughts on a.b.c.'s decision not to

air the interview. why is it that there appears to be vulnerable for one group of people on the move the rule for another group of people i don't have a problem whatsoever with not broadcasting allegations against people that are on cooperated but that is precisely what happened to predict a time and time again we see it with anybody on the rights whether that be donald trump right the way through to local representatives in britain and america and so i just think there's a there's a great degree of hypocrisy here boortz here is the thing that i really want to know and i don't care about trial by media i'm much more interested in the police looking into this and the proper judicial process why do so time and time again the clinton couple have this we are out there that just seems to be deeply disturbing and deeply distasteful you know time and time again we're expected to ignore suggested indiscretions by bill clinton said in a way that we would not do for the people of why decide exists now hey look i'm not

a conspiracy theorist but it is all diagonally true that there is one rule for one group of people are the real for bill clinton and hillary. iraqi authorities are holding talks on constitutional amendments they made ongoing violence in the country and around $260.00 people are believed to have been killed thousands of anti-government demonstrations started a month ago protesters are demanding a major overhaul of the political system which was established after the u.s. led invasion back in 2003 artie's daniel hawkins is being dealt. iraq is no stranger to turmoil the country's seen little piece and even less the billet since the us led invasion of 2003 mass protests and violence of regulating gulf the state of these though are the worst since the overthrow of saddam hussein 16 years ago. i.

found. hundreds killed dozens in just one week by live ammunition many thousands injured amid a heavy crackdown by security forces or the government's deployed special forces imposed curfews and an internet blackout across the whole country but that's just angered crowds even more roads and bridges have been blocked by demonstrators who have also tried to take over buildings both in the capital baghdad and across other cities why is this happening with these protests address years of grievances corruption unemployment poor public service is there a source of anger across many countries but in iraq things should be different the rock should be thriving the country's oil revenue has exceeded 850000000000 in the

post saddam years with production nearly doubling despite the internal strife with iraq estimated to hold almost 10 percent of the globe's proven reserves its prospects should be growing a report by the international energy agency predicts revenue to hit nearly 5 trillion dollars in just over 15 years time and optimistic estimates set back by years of conflict but you get the picture just months ago any joy in sex on a b.p. we're fighting for the right to build a pipeline in the country with tens of billions. dollars at stake and yet reality for most of the rockies is bleak last year iraq was ranked $168.00 found of under an 80 by corruption index but for people surviving on a day to day basis that's one of the smallest concerns the world food program reveals more than half of iraqis are at risk of food insecurity with unicef figures last year showing one in 4 children living in poverty so what happened former u.s.

defense secretary robert gates stated on a visit to baghdad that a new era was just around the corner more than ever i believe the goal of a secure and stable and democratic iraq is within reach almost 12 years on things couldn't be further from the truth to make sense of post intervention iraq and where exactly the grievances of lawyer let's speak to nicholas j. davis author of blood on our hands the american invasion and destruction of iraq mr davis thanks so much for joining us today good to have you with us now these protests they've been going on since mid october they show no sign of slowing down indeed there's been a government crackdown condemned by many organizations where do these grievances that law i that are spinning out with such violence all over the country the people of iraq you know i still you know have really been ignored and all this there is still suffering from the absolute destruction and economic

devastation of iraq by the u.s. invasion and occupation by statistics iraq having 10 percent nearly 10 percent of the world's oil reserves this should be a wealthy state yet we're seeing something quite different here how much of this is about that inequality about that wealth which is not trickling down which is being lost going down the drain to a corrupt system there were large state owned companies that that was the very basis of the iraqi a cause. to me and they supported this you know mixed mixed economy beyond that that was all completely destroyed unemployment under the u.s. occupation at one point reached at least 60 percent essential leave the sort of. you know pyramid of of power in you know occupied and post occupation iraq where you know this tiny group of u.s.

and iranian backed exiles has you know with u.s. and iranian support created a monopoly on power that the vast majority of the disenfranchised alienated people of iraq have never supported the u.s. who really has completely discredited itself from start to finish it has done nothing that has helped the people of iraq at all you know either before or after the invasion and staying in iraq the dutch defense ministry has admitted for the 1st time that asked why is it conducted there in 2015 led to civilian casualties. we have announced the location date and time of 2 bombings by dutch sixteen's in iraq the dutch government established civilians was certainly very probably killed let's take a look at those 2 air strikes in question the 1st took place in june 2015 when i

still bomb factories that was targeted it caused secondary explosions that killed over 70 people including civilians 3 months later in mosul a civilian house was wrongly identified as a terrorist h.q. the strike left 4 people dead now these tragic incidents make up just a minute fraction of cases where civilians have been caught up in deadly aerial operations in iraq over the 1st 3 years of the campaign the us led coalition is accused of killing nearly $3700.00 civilians in as strikes that's according to the non-governmental group iraq body count the coalition was comprised of $59.00 members not all of which though took part in direct combat the stated goal was to destroy the islamic state caliphate well antiwar activist kathy kelly told us western countries should be held accountable for their roles in the war. on women and. i would say people of conscience everywhere. buckle

down and work very very hard to call attention to crimes against humanity war crimes responsibility retort sure and the consequences of our weapon peddlers it isn't that i want to see anybody go to prison but i do believe that military leaders and military systems have to be held accountable and rehabilitated i hope all around the world people are trying. to. reparations to the people in countries where western countries have made war against them for years and years. for the suffering cause this is what the civilized country who do. a prominent probating politician has been stopped while on his election campaign trail in hong kong after the nice man pretended to be his supporter they were thora he said the suspects out continued to

shout at junior's hope after stopping him calling him quote human scum the man was arrested at the scene and is believed to be a supporter of hong kong's protest movement against the government politician who has become a controversial figure in the semi autonomous city state for his criticism of the anti beijing protests which have lasted for months his injuries are believed to be relatively minor with the instance strongly condemned by hong kong's chief executive. how can protest is carrying out violent acts claimed. democracy and peaceful demonstrations that removed challenges of the freedom and violates the rights of the majority of hong kong people. comes just days after another knife attack left 5 people wounded and also saw a local politician from the democratic party have part of his ear bitten off the demonstrations and subsequent on the west began. macho originally against

a proposed extradition bill for suspects of crimes to be sent to mainland china this instead of a fight has grown into a much wider grievances were they to and including a person for independence a senior lecturer at the university dr popkin long described the attacks as an electoral violence. him calling local election is fast approaching this month and i would categorize these 2 test again specific poll to show an awful posing caroms electoral violence if these types of follow ins continue to escalate to the extend that the election and we will unfortunately be suspended all console i believe to beijing or full team who can see to the very seriously how to intervene the situation more in the kind of tough men and snorkelling to be quite full on people because they want to eat action to be conducted beat east

also good thing the poll democrats and the democratic party are very sticky situation which they need to keep a threat of people see shouldn't and trying to pull us. and at the same time not to in taken as this fall in protest in moldova to get of their goals right now and we still need to see the you know to a result of these election because if you show us to what they stand for the democratic parties and the other democrats are actually willing to oppose from the majority of hong kong. here it out see let's hear your thoughts on all stories so do get in touch by following us on social media comments that my collection thomas will be with you at the top of the hour with all the racist.
