hollywood producer harvey weinstein sex offenses. it's just gone 3 pm here in moscow from myself and the whole team at artie's h.q. a very warm welcome to the program. and let's head straight to the u.k. because that dozens of people convicted of terrorist offenses who were released on license will have their cases reviewed that's according to prime minister boris johnson and it comes off to it was revealed that the suspect in friday's london bridge attack how to self been released. any other legal are in the same he would show load out and there was no in this has nothing to do with parole there was nothing to do with probation how many legally same as legally there are for everybody so this is really become a talking point over the weekend since that attack on friday on london bridge towards the side where the city of london financial district is now of course the
7:02 am
person involved a small car and somebody who had already been found guilty of involvement in a plot to blow up the london stock exchange but then was released as part of a scheme and there were attempts to try to rehabilitate him and put him back into society if you will that it was actually one of those events which were organized for not just him as a convicted terrorist but other acts offenders to attend and it was that of reportedly that he decided to launch his attack an attack killing 2 people in injuring 3 others on a london bridge and as i said that has over the weekend sparked a number of political accusations back and forth about who's to blame for this terrorist being on the streets these people darron should never ever be let out of prison unless we're absolutely convinced they do not have the jihadi virus people
7:03 am
don't want history lessons after this terrorist atrocity what people want is to put victims 1st and keeping communities safe 1st and if he had been sentenced under our rules he would still be in jail today no terrorist should be released without it being properly assessed whether or not they still pose a risk to the public school and we have indeed automatic early release for prisoners sentenced to more than 4 years in prison so there's plenty of political fallout as the different parties point the finger at each other the conservatives try. say that this early release scheme is ultimately the responsibility of the labor party while the labor say well firstly it was a conservative government under which this terrorist was released but also that the conservative budget cuts impacted policing and meant that terrorists like this
7:04 am
it's much harder to find now boris johnson over the weekend has been advocating for a policy of locking terrorists up and throwing away the key if you will even his own foreign secretary dominic robb confirms that the conservative party have a policy of a minimum 14 years sentence for dangerous terrorists and there's no guarantee that even would have made a difference in this case because this man was sentenced to 16 years and were released early so there will be those who are calling for that to be changed while the leader of the labor party jeremy corbyn is arguing that each case should be taken on its merits and that you can't apply a blanket scheme all round so many different opinions as we head towards a poll in just 10 days now that will decide everything from meet the u.k.'s education and environment policy and also how to fight crime and terrorism well
7:05 am
here are not debating the issues raised by our. since september the 11th we've released $500.00 terrorists who have committed acts of terrorism in the u.k. that these 2 men a and clearly we need to toughen up our laws but what's at the end you've got to remember that these people are quite quite unusual of whilst we need to control them we also need to be very clear that we cannot infringe on civil liberties. because they are so important because these post isis post liberal post in lighten if you like terror attacks happening on home soil they've often come home grown terrorists radicals criminals whatever you like to call them but they have been institutional failures the state security apparatus can do better should do better and isn't doing better and we have to ask questions why i remember the police the security services the courts are attempting to prevent these violent terrorists from attacking this country the question here is what are we doing about
7:06 am
those people who are involved in terrorist organizations but have not yet committed serious terrorist offenses i say membership of any terrorist organization should have a life imprisonment or if that would resolve the what do you mean member should know even know who carries a good. hard on terrorism friends on drawdown going on there you know beyond radio curry i don't have a terrorist organization i've got no problem on terrorism the hard line thing to saying like throw away the key or terrorism should go to prison forever that's absolutely fine you know or even open up a dialogue on it is capital punishment appropriate some people in some cases ok however what we have to do is ply apply fairly across the board if we are allowing entrapment cases where people are sent to syria and then they come back we reduce their citizenship we transduced their rights you talk about civil rights and human rights what about the bethnal green schoolgirls who are 14 or 15 were transported to syria if you join a terror organization we have to find out why we have to tackle these issues
7:07 am
properly we're talking about people going to syria. or go into training camps in pakistan people are engaging in acts of terror whether that be fund raising where that be terrorist training or whether the actual acts of terrorism in terms of violence those sorts of people should no more be treated reasonably than somebody who turns around and says i only murdered this woman because it was a crime of passion the law needs to change membership of terrorist organizations needs to hold a maximum penalty of life in prison and then judges can choose whether that maximum is appropriate on a case by case basis that to me seems sensible. now to some american politics u.s. journalist claims his former boss and friend hillary clinton distanced herself from him because he planned to investigate the now disgraced hollywood producer harvey feinstein. it's remarkable how quickly even people with a long relationship with you will turn if you threaten the centers of power or the
7:08 am
sources of funding around them ultimately there are a lot of people out there who operates in that way they're beholden to powerful interests and if you go up against those interests you become radioactive very quickly we're in and far what 3 years as clinton special adviser back since 2011 when she was u.s. secretary of state having feinstein meanwhile donated tens of thousands of dollars to clinton's 2016 presidential campaign before the whole sexual assault scandal unfolded don't courts now looks at how investigative journalism in general is becoming harder in the age of big corporate media. hollywood often portrays investigative journalists as knights in shining armor risking it all to protect the truth is that legal what is it is that we do it for a living. we don't. leave the country. i wish to do my job you never want. your gas tank here and we can tell this story
7:09 am
we're going to tell it right and reality though snooping around the lives of influential people could have serious repercussions it could land you in trouble even if we're talking about hollywood royalty like ronan farrow he was essential to the new yorker's 2017 investigation into rape allegations against harvey weinstein the same one that received a pulitzer prize and through the me too movement into the mainstream before his journalism career farrow worked as a lawyer at one point serving under the then secretary of state hillary clinton as her advisor for global youth issues they made quite the team that is until farah began digging into weinstein's dirty laundry did you feel pressure from hillary clinton on and her staff raised concerns about the fact that i was working on this story about one of her most significant donors that they had bungler of hollywood money not to mention pharaoh's original collaborator and b c refused to publish the weinstein revelations all together but this isn't even
7:10 am
the only major story that the mainstream media big wigs have tried to smother a.b.c. anchor amy roebuck recently went public about her investigation into geoffrey epstein's pedophile operation which was killed by the network 3 years ago it was unbelievable what we had we had everything. i tried for 3 years to get it on to no avail and now it's coming out and i think well of revelations what we had it was unreal there were going back to you know. get. your shit so is that it have the rich and powerful become so strong. that investigative journalism has no place in the 21st century you probably can't reach. you know 1020000000 people with investigative stories that really attack it wealthy and powerful when you do investigative journalism which i do for a career and a living and you bump up against the rich and powerful especially if
7:11 am
if your publisher is friendly with those who are rich and powerful you. you know you pay a price you either are taken off the beat and given something else to do like right of it you areas or you are you know in the worst case you're fired. or you're sort of let know that you know your career is not going anywhere there so you should look elsewhere. and just a gentle reminder we also have plenty of stories on our website including how the iranian submarine fleet is getting a weapons upgrade with the new cruise missile going into mouth production and get the lowdown on not. at all. also. in the italian for. the historic funk was evacuated off to the discovery of a wild expensive you can find that story and much more of course on our website.
7:12 am
and a feat of engineering a moscow and beijing have launched a 3000 kilometer pipeline dubbed the power of beriah it's going to carry russian natural gas to china to india today we're marking a significant truly historic moment you also need for the global energy market but for us china and russia school. our relations center in the new era and i hope russia and china will do more projects of the sky and projects that will serve the interests of our country and benefit tell people.
7:13 am
the pipeline took 5 years to build and is the biggest russian gas investment project yet right and costs have reports from beijing. the 3000 kilometer long power off siberia gas pipeline and has been commissioned by russia and china on a monday the ambitious project has united the northern hemisphere 2nd largest gas producer along with the world's 2nd largest gas consumer market economic unity and friendship between neighbors or russia and china.
7:14 am
and for china it couldn't be more timely the country has been using increasing amounts of gas and it's a trend that looks set to stick around after. this is a major strategic project for bilateral energy cooperation it is of great significance to deepening corroboration between the 2 countries and integrating our interests now russia is also quite pleased that with this project. we have started with the biggest restructuring projects in the world there will be nothing bigger in the sphere for years to come because this is not about breaking records this is an extremely important project for this russia and china but we all know that energy is as stake it's all fake and there is no pleasing everyone especially when someone's been cut out of the deal now the world's largest producer and consumer of natural gas the united states is now perhaps regretting driving through outcasts
7:15 am
countries together after waging an economic war with one and slapping sanctions on the other the us ongoing trade war with. china has driven beijing's consumption of america's flagship liquefied natural gas right down to gas like no other apparently this one has a uniquely american flavor increasing export capacity from the freeport liquefied natural gas project is critical to spreading freedom gas throughout the world by giving america's allies a diverse and affordable source of clean energy china and russia's energy corp is a double whammy for the united states which is also seeing some of its other gas consumers surging their backs on it in a matter of months and all their energy pipeline north stream will start flooding europe with russian gas at a faster cheaper and greener rate that is american alternative washington that must be scratching his head at how some european leaders could shun its uniquely
7:16 am
flavored gas in favor off a closer ties with moscow despite its best efforts to convince them otherwise we're taking germany with rejecting friends would take both of these countries and numerous other countries go out of the pipeline and it was very good with this thing but it isn't the dollars into the coffers of russia that's one of the concerns the president has about north stream to why your would voluntarily tie itself even more to russian energy supplies and we make a tough case about ensuring that germany doesn't become dependent on russian energy we don't want europe's energy supplies to be dependent on whether mir putin. and not the russian pipeline that the u.s. can criticize that was between russia and tucking his team to open and john yuri as for the new power of siberia line while political find a status of chank says ready it's a win win for both washington and china. this is significant both china and russia
7:17 am
china even means a lot in terms of energy security intel. so the sophistication of use and if he so says from the video essentially and so on to to the russian siberia it is also significant for russia because it means that it is less deep and under the european market it opens up the china market with tremendous potential and infrastructure built can also be used to supply oil and natural gas to some korea and japan so there is a lot of potential to develop the asia pacific market in support of the bottom and the russian far east and eastern siberia russia resident help us best off the former mining town in canada speak out against pains plans to change its name to took the negative connotations bought
7:18 am
a much more break. i would hope to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or some want to. have to go right to the press this is what before 3 of them or can't be good. i'm interested in the waters in the house. there should be more. organized labor has been demolished in america and the average income for americans hasn't budged at all in 2030 years because they were deemed neutered from their ability to compete for capital labor has no seat at the table labor has no seat at
7:19 am
the central bank labor has been abandoned the jobs have been shipped overseas. wall street now gets all the crap they get 100 percent of the capital every dollar profit by the fed goes directly to wall street bypasses labor bypasses ways. welcome back and let's head straight to a change in leadership and one of the ruling coalition parties has left a big question mark hanging over the alliance its future with new people at its helm the social democratic party is expected to tilt father to the left something that's likely to upset their conservative allies are thousands of angela sepsis looks at how the long standing status quo in job and politics could change and who ringback might fill that vacuum. for decades though german voters have always
7:20 am
favored parties in the center of the political spectrum radicals no think you give us a stable moderate government and the c.d.u. and s.p.d. were always there had been had to meet that demand but some say that this is a little bit too dull well it's because it was but not anymore and might belong in the past if the s.p.d. leadership is anything to go by meet walter and saskia also known in germany as the anti merkel coalition. the real question is are we able to find answers together to the really important big questions and that's far from certain we say with a grand coalition there is no way we can build a future there is no future in it so why is the s.p.d. leaving its old palls well it seems that the party is going through its own little crisis at the moment and they have been losing one election after the other and the
7:21 am
grand coalition seems to be losing its popularity so in a desperate move to win more voters the social democrats are turning to socialism one the one. raise minimum wage increase infrastructure and will for spending something straight out of coral marxist book no doubt and the party is going even further left calling for the country's largest brants to be put under collective ownership and nothing less without great civilization overcoming capitalism is inconceivable the key factor is not the distribution of profits is controlled democratically as the s.p.d. is moving closer to the red corner the blue or right wing corner seems to be going through its own little struggle the main opposition party alternative for germany is even more popular now in the eastern states causing major headaches for the center right hugh as the eye if they pushed merkel's party into 3rd place in the latest elections in. the shell shocked to see the e.u.
7:22 am
was even forced to sit down and have a dialogue with the very anti immigration party that they wants labeled as nazis. colleagues from the f.t. faction are just as good as those from any other factions i see the a 50 is a conservative party almost 25 percent of voters gave their ballots to this party and i don't agree with this tendency to betray the all is nazis and the already smelled the blood. there will come when we see do you only one option. if you are expecting the alternative for germany party to embrace and into mainstream politics you'll be disappointed even film time during the 2 day congress to slam the centrist c b u and s p d and the new leader that got elected doesn't seem that he wants the change the agenda and why what he this is what got the party votes in the 1st place as the popularity of the centrist party is all fades voters find comfort in the corners of
7:23 am
the political spectrum blue or red some say that this is just a temporary reaction while others believe this is a permanent change eventually for r.t. to political analyst raina told us that under the nearly an elected leadership the social democrats could yet turn the tide and recover from recent. they need leadership made the beginning because it's the free themselves from the grand coalition embracement which has harmed them a lot in the past years because the christian democratic union has just followed the strategy of eating more in laurel's the topics of the social democrats if they follow the tendency of themselves from this grand coalition in addressing the war the needs and interests of the voters then i sing the good game.
7:24 am
in the public. for a slightly unusual story from canada or far it is in a small town that want to change its name because it makes people think of cancer they say as best os which is the current name is also bad for local business the name change discussion has been brewing for some time there is really a negative perception around us best us we have lost businesses that don't want to establish themselves here because of the name described as the most dangerous town in canada has passed us for more than 100 years provided hof of the world supply of the mineral from which its name derived before its deadly properties were known though the material used to be at the heart of the local economy however the main as best as wine closed back in 2012 as best as used to be widely used as insulation for homes but it's been bound to more than 60 countries around the world the tiny fibers it's made of can be inhaled and course counts but some locals of the town as
7:25 am
best us want to hold on to the name. i think to the point of changing the name but it's part of the history of the town changing it will be like raising not history so we'll have to find a name that's on is it b m y z c i don't want that i spent my entire life here so for me it's another loss perhaps for the next generation it would be better to change the name but i would prefer to stick to my roots as fast as we were they should not change it i was raised here it's my hometown as a people refused to come here because it's seen as best as it is dangerous and it's not i've lived here my entire life and i don't have any health problems. probably because some of it someone from montreal told me that when people hear the name as best they hear cancer i was born and raised here and my house was in the morning we used to grieve as best as particles although it's not a good idea to change the name this person's mind is no history he's
