issues you know i should just let hold strong jolt in the left wing literally 2nd plate of the plane began to rock back and forth like both i began to tighten my belt panic and already began that the children had started crying when the plane began to go dollars ok it was clear that would definitely go into a crash which i braced myself for the impact then the sewing caved in the mergence the door was open so we jumped on the wing and against ripping because it was icy we helped each other to get down. the u. . geoffrey thomas from airline ratings dot com gave us his thoughts on what might have gone wrong. early indications point to 2 possible causes one is that as we can see snow snow everywhere was very very cold icing conditions and it may
6:06 am
well have been that the plane was not correctly d.-i still not be arsed at all and if there's a build up of ice on the wing. as the plane takes off you're going to have a situation where you're. over the top of the wing the air over the top of the wing is disturbed therefore you lose lift the plane or you reach now 2 to 40 feet and then crash back to earth. and the other thing we but there's a possibility there was an engine problem we know the aircraft reached takeoff speed of about 175 miles an hour and then quickly let's speak quickly to within a 2nd or 2 of takeoff back to 148 and that's when all daughter was lost. possible engine problems possible icing problem on the wings. on saturday yella best demonstrators gathered in paris for any 59th weekend
6:07 am
a protest they were joined by those condemning the government's pension reform plans reporting from the capital here charlotte. well it's the 59th week of protests by this year lazio owns out every saturday to show their discontentment with the french government and what they see as being policies for the reaction against the poor they've also been joined by protest and those i came to the pension reforms at the moment in france these the reforms that the french government is trying to put through some reforms that would see some 42 different pension systems joining down into one universal system so to give you a sense of the crimes that we've got here you might be able to see i simply banners and this protest crowd heading back towards cardinal which is about a kilometer away they are in fact also in front of us as well and so far this is being a generally calm protest but as you can see some of the protesters are trying to
6:08 am
pull down some of the barriers that are there for the rude works of it going on in this area it seems like the tensions are starting to. roy's now here in paris as act 59 is underway we're being told not to fail not to show what's going on. but he said very serious as you can see my camera is being addressed that. the person who. was one of the books was. the political just trying to do our jobs in paris here by showing what's going on with the protests as you probably can see from the end of that footage my cameraman was attacked when we tried to stop the attack is from talking in the camera and that she smacked me across the face this is the kind of reaction you get from some of what people describe as being the black blocs just literally walking me smack across both sides of my face because i was trying to explain to him that we're
6:09 am
doing our job and to stop trying to harass my cameraman and attempting to break the camera as you can see the police going to who exactly fire that has been lit by the protests since you can see things very thrown out the police by some of the protesters now as they try and get closer this is the area where we were trying to film earlier and were attacked during so by some of those mosques to protest as you can feel the tension rising in the end now of this 59th week of the yellow vest protests and of course joined by those on protest against the changes to the pension system bringing brought forward by the french government as you can see that fire been set to some of the the roadworks that were taking place and it looks like they've been able to get some rubbish to put on top of that police now putting that out very quickly and trying to secure the area as the protest is still around the tear gas now dispersed as the police trying to control those crowds you could
6:10 am
see there were bottles they looked like last vocals being thrown into the place you can still see some things being said. into the air and not to you gas now that cloud coming pushing us away mechanism again trying to control the protests picking up it's already it's coming quite close to i say really need to move forward a bit faster if we possibly can just to try and get away from that particular dispersed by the police in attempts to control the crowds here close to shot late in the center of paris just to give you a sense of where she actually is it's just across the water from. that famous cathedral here in paris the police there trying to move themselves away at that tear gas unusual to see the police crying from the tear gas it's perhaps nice to see for me that i'm not the only person who is impacted by the cas.
6:11 am
u.s. democratic presidential hopeful michael bloomberg has apologized after his campaign use prison labor to promote his election message female inmates were employed to voters about bloomberg himself to 19 knew what was happening we learned about this when the reporter called us which is soon as we discovered which friend a subcontractor had done this we immediately ended our relationship with the company and the people who hire them imagine being so reach you have people who have people who have prisoners to do stuff for you i didn't reach you don't even bother to check what you are spending millions of dollars on. rita rating we sat in did when we learn a vendor of a vendor of a vendor use prison labor we did know about it and we never would have allowed it we don't believe in this practice and we immediately stopped working with pro com and the people who hired them so so how do you do it pay someone to pay someone to
6:12 am
tell them mike bloomberg is a big spender he was last to do in the presidential race and he has already outspent all the other democrat candidates on campaign advertising i mean the guy has so much money he doesn't seem to have the time to check what he spent a good dog but there's credit michael bloomberg did promise america more work just to. get it. for president jobs creator. right america more jobs even if you don't particularly want them what makes it much much worse is that many of the prisons in the states a private run for profit and there are laws that force people to work so if you are in a jail and you are told to work you have to you'll be punished sometimes they pay you as much as $20.00 a month that's right $20.00
6:13 am
a month now here's the irony mike bloomberg billionaire one of the richest people in america was essentially paying for what is a slave labor to cool people apparently tell them that he's a good guy wait the bloomberg is he was paying someone to pay someone to tell everyone what a good guy he is trump says he wants to run the nation like he's running is business god help us. everybody says stuff that comes back to bite them but when billionaires do it it's generally an order of magnitude. it gets. worse the further you dig when he launched his campaign his media bloomberg news sent out a letter to thousands of its journalists pledging to uphold its principle of not investigating its own this is the sort of person mike is mike bloomberg started as
6:14 am
a middle class kid to work his way through college and built a business from a single room to a global entity creating tens of thousands of could paying jobs along the way. there he could've he probably shouldn't but he didn't let me continue he became richer year after year he made really a selling bank is ludicrously priced products will gadgets the same bankers who threw unbridled greed set off the 20085 actual crash the prodding tens of millions of people of those of life savings and jobs. michael bloomberg for president and that's a good journalist dave lindorff believes that this spike bloomberg is a vast wealth he's not a particularly strong candidate. it really shouldn't be acceptable for anybody liberal or conservative to use prison labor it's forced labor bloomberg is a multibillionaire he's worth like $54000000000.00 he's made his money by you know
6:15 am
not paying attention to things like that. that he's not concerned about the little guy. which i guess becomes you know if you're if you're supposedly a democrat you're concerned about the little guy and. enormous a packer see it a big problem because i think it's going to hurt him a lot i don't know where people get the idea that bloomberg is the great savior for democrats in the race in the race to get struck he has almost no poll support all he has is money. billionaires have not traditionally done that well running for office it's. you know you got to have money to run for president but when you have that much money i think that most people are pretty suspicious of your motives in running for office will be back with more of the week's top stories after this.
6:16 am
the world is driven by dreamers shaped by one person with those great. thinks. we dare to ask. you know world a big part of the law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the bad and shouting past

each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. welcome back there's been a sharp increase in u.k. weapons sales to saudi arabia over the last 5 years that's despite one signing up to a tribute to prevent exports to rights abusers oxfam which calculated the rise says it's deeply concerned about the way the weapons have been used in the conflict in yemen. according to the charity the u.k. has license sales worth nearly 6 and a half 1000000000 pounds to 8 members of the saudi coalition in the last 5 years that's much more than in the 5 years before it signed the treaty a treaty that more than a 100 countries signed up to it regulates the arms trade in order to prevent human suffering the british government was also keen to stress its importance when it
6:18 am
signed up to it the a.t.t. is the only legally binding treaty regulating on promoting legitimate and responsible trading conventional arms it remains a unique and valuable instrument when the arms trade treaty came into effect the u.k. was a real champion of that treaty unfortunately those 2 countries that. we in yemen know party to not war in yemen or that she increased and i think this is. your yemen world's worst humanitarian crisis right now and the u.k. and far from kind of living up to treaty and the word is that treaty has has continued to so countries involved in a country where we know international having been disregarded. with pressure mounting the u.k. has now had to suspend the sale of weapons to saudi arabia in june the court of

6:20 am
says there is clear evidence riyadh has committed human rights violations in yemen . the evidence is really i have a well meaning. that there's been consistent violations of international law and and as you say the case was really clear that. the government needed to you know if it was going to continue to license weapons had to be clear about that there was a pattern of violation in that violation was clearly so i very much. and i think it's. you know very sad that the government have chosen to appeal this decision and wish to continue to sow weapons being used in a bullit that is causing untold poverty. and destruction for the people of yemen. ukraine and the self-proclaimed people's republic of donetsk and lugansk in the east of the country have initiated
