france is crippled by a nationwide strike over pension plans but protests in the capital descending into violence. the russian foreign minister rejects germany's claims that moscow's not been cooperating with an investigation into the murder of a georgian citizen in berlin this summer. but her face is fresh censorship accusations after a change to its terms of service leads to fears of a shadow banning.

from a nativity h.q. in moscow money bramwell from me on the table this hour we're going to start in france which has been paralyzed by its biggest strike in years this thursday with workers protesting all mass against the government's plans to overhaul the pension system transport networks have been brought to a standstill and schools and hospitals badly affected as well demonstrations have been held right across the country to do bends he's been following the protest in paris. this is against a proposed changes by the french government to the pension system here in france the idea is that they will amalgamate number of different systems around 42 different systems into a universal system but people say that i will have a massive impact on their pensions because it will mean that their pensions perhaps could be lower in the future or in fact that they might have to work even longer and not as cost huge fury here in france a hero plasterer public for i can tell you the crimes go all the way back more than

a closer to god due north which is where this process was originally due to start off with what was coming for many hours is turned. tensions with clashes between. the police in the protest as you might be able to hear some of those plus going off behind us that's tear gas that's being thrown into the protesters the taxes have set light to several parts of the streets around me including some of the electric scooters they've been bringing items to put on to the fire we saw a van. on fire and they got tear gas really coming quite close to us and you might get a sense of it just down that you can see there more tear gas down into the protesters try and move people away from the family and so the fire crews can get on with their job which is to try and put out that fire i get you get a sense of some of the damage that's being caused here shelter here has been smashed that's something we see quite regularly in the protests another fire taking

place across the street actually as a not just that big fire with a big plume of smoke but of course here it really looks like in the last sort of 10 to 15 minutes all hell is broken loose have also been tensions elsewhere in fronts not just here tensions in places like no other cities across from the reality is the people here are angry figures coming in from the prefect churn from the police when the course fronts say that more than 450000 people have taken part in this strike today not just transport workers but teaches students health workers plumbers a fire fight is an even the police people are adamant that they want to have their voices heard and it seems like today they've come out to the streets to make sure that's happening. there among the other protests around france a joint at the g.

supposedly of president mccrone guarding a crowd that's on display at the southern city of no that's just the scene hitting it with sticks as it dangled from a tree the strike action there also saw some sporadic violence as the. straightest clashed with police back in the capital we've been speaking to some of those who call part of the protests. but this is not a strike by railway employees only but a national strike by all the employees who don't want to have their pensions council and don't want to work more while earning less than $3.00 that they did i'm 28 years old i've been working for 10 years and as the things are it's clear to me i won't be able to retire it will be impossible to survive until then nobody cares about our working conditions at all. or why we're doing is good very good is imposing their will present we want to live and work and earn a decent living the same goes for retirees who should get these in pensions because this affects us all we are working you have to work for us for the unemployed and

the pension it all falls on us and we work poor jobs we want to fight against it. russia has flatly rejected germany's claims that it's not been cooperating with an investigation into the murder of a georgian national in berlin in august russian foreign minister sergei lavrov told r.t. on thursday that it appears the moscow will again be blamed for a crime that it was not involved in with the story his maria. relations between moscow and bearly now going drastically downhill germany's unexpected decision to expel 2 russian embassy staffers on wednesday has left more scope fuming angela merkel complained russia didn't do enough to have ceased tame the investigation into the murder of a georgian national back in august and now barely says there is real and sufficient indication that russia was behind it i asked russia's foreign minister sergey lavrov for his response in the city is going over russia and germany have special

channels set up to tackle issues such as violations of the law we should use them they said we did not cooperate enough this is groundless some countries today recalled the tragedy of m.h. 17 my dutch counterpart said we didn't do enough then we supplied them with all the necessary information with data from our radars and so on we gave them everything where all the satellite images the us promised nobody answered that we asked them what kind of cooperation they want from us they responded by saying you have to confess you did it that would be corporative if germany wants to follow suit nothing good will come of it but that's not a good way to deal with anyone and with russia in particular isn't him 100 was a 40 year old georgia and citizen of chechen origin he was targeted in a berlin park on his way to a mosque with eyewitnesses saying he was shot in the head by a man on a bicycle his murder was then dubbed by the media as scree paul 2.0 and the victim

labeled as a kremlin opponent but who was the victim a right hand men to terrorists during the 2nd chechen war his role was to lead extremist groups in the caucasus and recruit spies and hunger shrill as reported paramilitary korea continued into 2012 when he is said to have assisted at georgian operation against his former comrades considered a terrorist by the russian i thought. says he was also listed as a potential is the miss rat for some time in germany to now various media outlets have published their own conclusions into his death the evidence includes 4 to comparisons and killing parton's of a man who had been hiding from interpol and russia and the reporters suggesting the wanted murderer was then hard by morse code of chechnya to do it again the federal investigation in germany is just the beginning now on the merkel says he hopes russia will help the german investigators but it seems no matter who was behind it

the embassy expulsion indicates that the verdict has in fact already been given. our to reporting from europe. which is updated terms of service says it will now be able to put limits on content and that's raising fears that the social media platform could apply so-called shadow bans that effectively been suppressing publicly posted content without the users knowledge that their posts are not visible to their followers it's an accusation that it has faced before but as equals dawn of now reports it could become the norm for next year. twitter is coming out of the shadows remember all these media figures accusing these social platform of sneakily hiding their posts from their followers feeds what big brother hides from us what is referred to as shadow banding may be even more pernicious if you're on the left maybe you're ok with this but if you're not on the left or even

if you are and you revere the 1st amendment you should be concerned that's actually been well substantiated vice news which is not a right wing outlet says that this is happening on our own team basis to a lot of folks on the right side of the aisle but almost never people on the left side of the aisle do not know our island people very nice that's what i think is that you've got to be balanced house leader kevin mccarthy wrote our chairman a letter and said hey this is going on and we think your committee should investigate it and how the twitter boss made a surprise an innocent face saying that oh no no no they're definitely not going behind anyone's backs to quietly hide their opinions twitter undertook no behavior to selectively censor conservative republicans or conservative voices on your platform correct correct. well apparently all those assurances were just a big pile of nonsense now for those of you not too tech savvy i'm talking about

a thing called shadow banning to the shuttle banned user everything looks just fine they can log into their account follow calm and like even post tweets but crucially their posts are simply not shown in other people's feeds even if they are subscribed to the user twitter had been adamantly denying that it does this until it slipped this one small change into their constitution we may also remove or refuse to distribute any content on the services ltd strip you sure visibility of any content on the service suspended terminate users and reclaim usernames without mobility to you it's a case where just a couple of words make all the difference the part about limiting tweet visibility was not in the previous edition of the document here it is nothing of the sort

there and one can only wonder why twitter has decided to come clean all of a sudden perhaps because after all the outcry from the users wronged by the platform it simply made no sense in denying it anymore or and maybe because the twitter star film had previously outright confessed to shadow banning already on hidden camera one. than someone who. don't want to share. there's even a lawsuit against twitter accusing it of discriminating against conservative voices by your employing its shadow banning tactic but now that it's in the terms of service some users will just have to accept that they are talking to themselves. it's not so much that twitter or facebook or any other social media platform have

influence what they have is the power to promote certain people's opinion d. promote tell of the people's influence on twitter that is the critical thing of what we need to do is have a fair platform we need to have a free and open discourse and we need to allow everybody to have a similar right to say what they've got to say i don't agree with absolutely everything that is said on twitter not even the conservative stuff that we're talking about but actually it shouldn't be for these big companies to decide all discourse all discussion all debates in our own country that is manifestly unfair and it's not a business decision actually it's a public utility and that's a critical point. head of the international olympic committee's back to the findings of a world anti-doping agency panel over alleged attempted results in the moscow laboratory database russia strongly denied the allegations after issuing its own technical investigation and response auntie's many an accounting of

a picks up the story. group of russian technical experts have conducted their own investigation and rejected claims that moscow manipulated athletes test results in its lib or a tree database and they claim that moscow has transferred all the information required to wada and never tempered too with the results of the probe now it turned out that the database could have been altered by those who had admin access to the system and according to the experts those people would be the program developer and his team who actually back in 2015 fled to the united staes right as the doping scandal as collated and russian experts say that they were the ones who tempered because they had admin rights russian experts have found that the developer of the limbs at the mosque mr magoo. of and his colleague mr silva lives how did ministries access to the system as

a result of the research the russian side has determines the database used to the most has been changed from time to time and after mr rajan could've and so believe skee fled to the us the database had been in fact run via the internet from los angeles until june 26th seen the situation changed in 2016 when it was revealed that such manipulations took place the russian agency was guarded and 2016 within you had of the department appointed but a problem seemingly still exist there are actually 2 copies of the database one that was given to wada in 2017 by an unknown whistleblower and the other one provided by the russian side in general this year now the group of experts now believe that it is essentially wrong to compare these 2 copies because of their different origins while the 29 team copy was produced following all the necessary technical requirements the other came from unknown digital front here after

possibly being tampered with and that is backed by avid and found during the investigation conducted by the experts. a russian led criminal investigation has found a mechanism of deliberate tampering with a doping test results deeply integrated into the lymph system so what do we have now well despite numerous offer is coming from russia to create a united and independent investigation team into this matter what and has been either avoiding or even rejecting these attempts russian experts explain why they think this happened in this case we think that during its probe what is intelligence investigations department tried by all means not to undermine trust in the information provided by the whistleblower and the conclusions made by mr mclaren and now a final decision on the case will be made on december the 9th in paris russia could now face a 4 year ban from hosting major sports competitions and clean athletes made to

compete under troll flak. at the start of ahead netflix series narcos wagner more of those blamed the laid back in his native brazil for creating a political monster he's been speaking exclusively to r.t. spain's host and former ecuadorian president rafael correa. i mean how could the people who great brazil choose such a primitive person is both a narrow this is an elegant i would this is a good question well perhaps the fact is that one. if you think even you have no answer. but during the government of lula and deal we lived in a certain isolated world the country has reached a new level 30000000 people have moved out of poverty airports are full of people like never before more black students are attending university we lived in

a certain isolated world. is a magician and a reconciliation between social classes which was unlikely to ever happen in brazil he told the bankers don't worry everything will be fine the only thing i want is to get people out of poverty not lose your position and you include us and for some time despite high prices for all materials everything went well but then the economy collapsed and humans did not possess the same ability or charisma. and then the elite which temporarily agreed to this agreement said that's it that's another 4 color what it is and even think that the same illegal which had no other choice but to support while so narrow is now beginning to realize what kind of an unfair they've created and is now trying to distance itself from the stance on the newspapers wrote that. and. they do the same with culture figures that for example in the have a lot of lawsuits with journalists because i did not know that i will sue them they

say that i use the law to promote culture because i have leftist views and support leftists ideology and i filed lawsuits against the media but what happened to move is a real mess. thanks for external election in britain seems to be the next russia link scandal on the horizon the opposition labor party leader has been accused by the daily telegraph newspaper of helping to spread russian descent from asian it's after he exposed leaked documents on u.s. u.k. trade talks but it also comes just months after the very same paper published a story apparently based on a leak of the very same documents as nichiren explains. it's crunch time ahead of the u.k.'s general election meaning it's now or never to smear anyone and everyone in red in other words link them to russia this week it's mostly comrades jeremy

corbett as we can see from this headline bounce off the corp and produced a leaked cache of documents part of which he says reveals how pm boris johnson put the n.h.s. up for sale during trade talks with the us q damage control from mr prime minister the n.h.s. is not for sale and under no circumstances will this government or any conservative government do anything to put the n.h.s. up for negotiation in trade talks or problems and if you know that those documents represent meetings that took place between a british minister and officials in the usa i think it's time they gave us the shorts that they will not sign off our n.h.s. that they will not sell off our public services as part of a trade deal with us and i just garage sales aside it's the least dossier that's grabbing attention if not from the russians when i could corbin's documents have possibly come from corbin calls it nonsense but among the pack of those demanding

the labor party come clean it seems the daily telegraph knows better independent researchers said the documents carried the specter of foreign influence as they had been published online using methods that directly mirror an earlier russian descent from asian campaign the daily telegraph tools that conclusion from a social media a little that works with nato as atlanta councils think they're. impartiality then all maybe the guys the telegraph are looking for answers in all the wrong places it seems the outlet got its hands on a strikingly similar dossier let's take a closer look here's an excerpt from the dossier corbin had there was much talk which printed do you commission as the bad guys it is easier to change your regulation before it's finalized ok again that was from the leak obtained by the opposition leader and this from the dossier published by the telegraph 4 months ago

see the difference british negotiators said washington had repeatedly painted the e.u. commission as the bad guy american officials said it was easier to change a regulation before it is finalized there was much talk which created the you commission as the bad guys it is easier to change your regulation before it's finalized well maybe we should ask the authors of the july report who their source was that they have a new russian friends who might have provided the documents also here's a tip keep a close eye on the online comments section some of it's really worth a look like this one posted more than 2 weeks ago with links to the very scandalous documents at the center of it all available for anyone and everyone to enjoy however it would seem that the people most concerned about the origins of the dossier pop in to be those at the telegraph the u.s. u.k. trade talk minutes found their way onto the internet have you asked the cabinet office to investigate and if not do you think they should be i'm. not the answer is

no. 10 years ago december the 5th or tragedy strike in the russian city of perm a deadly fire ripped through a nightclub killing 156 of russia commemorates the horrific incident we spoke to one of the many families still suffering the consequences. exactly the kind of state of us dollars. in washington yes favorite it comes. right. fist he could just get. it. and still didn't. answer questions. concerns.

couldn't. been spinning. nearest. the national news or both. sides at which explanation happening right. on the border texted. me and did it just to finance a finance financing. or something to thank you for quitting ashqelon and janet get them to sign up

a little was last spring. thank you again vice chair of future support it if. you will. thank you. that's all from the moscow newsroom for now thanks for watching your next update from a sit in around 35 minutes off that we see how doing undercover investigation into the commercial breeding industry in the united states.

all the yen the euro the dollar they all refer to each other and they're all going to burn deeper into debt so there's no basic there or there there's no so there's no way to measure the dead against something that is could be considered money remember j.p. morgan said only gold is money everything else is credit or debt ok so without that there's no way to measure that debt and there's no at the moment you know my my view is that this is leading to a neo feudalism or you have just a few private equity firms owing 98 percent of all the assets and everyone else is a living as serfs on that we're getting back to the dark ages.

of facebook and google started with a great idea and great ideals unfortunately it was also a very dark so. they are constructing a profile of you and that profile is real it's detailed and it never goes away turns out that google is manipulating your pain. from the very 1st character that you type into the search bar it will always favor one dog food over another one comparative shopping service over another and one candidate over another they can suppress certain types of results based on what they think you should be seen if they have this kind of power then democracy is an illusion the free and fair election doesn't exist for the more growth we give them the sooner we are all paying. for.

creating the special effects of that we can benefit so as one of the many of the. book to get us to the gulf where. you thought the whole doping can russia think was over for get it. through a couple of pressure with the ball still some of the muscles of the. russian methods eligibility for the international competition says its stake just includes events like the tokyo olympics and the before world cup in qatar if i am in the early as last. year when you come out of the just as it was 4 years ago in moscow anti-doping plavix at the center of the scandal so who tampered with the doping samples database and one does greegor you want to give have to do with it and you choose to but it was done to paul doesn't mean it. will not be used to push on the richest the dealership might expose me in the ocean to actually build the world so the pollution and then there's no.

rap rap rap rap rap rap rap rap rap. rap rap rap rap rap. rap rap. a k c in terms of its revenue model registers dogs and registers litters so it's involved in a transactional relationship with those breeders and obviously the ones producing the most dogs are the largest still breeders so why is it going to crack down on those large scale breeders and sacrifice the revenue from a rigorous program that stops people from confining animals to knowing

a vet care or exposing them to extremes of even told if they're going to lose revenue the american kennel club prides itself on being the only pure bred registry in the united states with an ongoing routine kennel inspection program with a dedicated team of field inspectors casey says that it inspects kennels but they don't make any of those inspection records available. they say that they've got rigorous standards but they really don't know what those standards are real terms they say that they kick people out we don't really have a comprehensive record of when they're doing that or what the consequences are even if they can still keep breathing and they can still keep operating so what's the value of their inspections program there in force and efforts for all we know are completely meaningless we don't know what they even inspect when they go into these

facilities because they don't make their inspection records public quite frankly if they were meaningful inspections there would be no reason not to make them public. while the a k c boasts of a rigorous inspection program in 2011 only $1500000.00 of their $59000000.00 in revenue. was spent to employ just 9 inspectors across the entire united states. there casey is a group that says it's the dogs champion but in practical terms is consistently leading the fight against efforts to establish humane dog breeding standards in the state at the federal level. over $5000.00 kennel inspections last year.
