russian backing for the front runner of the phrase russian t.v. trends on twitter. interview with his wife resurfaces. very good afternoon to you thanks for joining us here on our. germany has lifted a ban on the commercial sale of euthanasia critics warn that the right to die will now be exploited for profit peta all of it takes a look. almost 5 years after it was banned the highest court in germany has ruled that blocking assisted suicide is unconstitutional and making its ruling on wednesday the constitutional court in culture is said everyone has a right to live and a right to die article 217 of the german criminal code outlawed euthanasia as well as the advertising of the services what this ruling from the constitutional court

means is that that's being overturned and not only could companies offer euthanasia but that advertising for the deaf could also stop being seeing the thinking behind wednesday's court ruling is that this will allow those in extreme paying and suffering from terminal illnesses to end their lives on their terms however senior voices within palliative care are warning that this could perhaps only to the normalization and indeed the commodification of suicide in society now the facilitation of suicide for the sick and tired of life is turning into a normal service anyone who allows you to nature will sooner or later make it compulsory to die especially in this society is economize designers knowledge of experience across all other countries shows that supply creates demand immediately following the ruling politicians are asking what situations this will be allowed in

also what the commercial implications will be for companies wanting to get involved in the euthanasia business i want clear rules about when medical assistance in particular is allowed and when commercial offerings are excluded it is perfectly normal for people who have a terminal diagnosis to feel suicide in fact some of the studies show that i've 80 percent go through a period of depression with some sort of sidle thoughts and so what we should be doing is trying to find ways to assist those people in getting through that period and actually. being there lives rather than promoting assisted suicide newton a.z.'s services so we would be extremely worried about any commercialization or run of the process or indeed promotion that would lead to many fine reports people feeling that their lives were not worth living and actually ending them prematurely highest people here in berlin what their thoughts 'd are on the ruling of whether this is right for germany it's not

a commercial thing dying it it's something that needs care security he needs. yet professionalism i think there are certain things that you cannot put to sales to people like it's not a business you pay for yes i know want to commit suicide but i'm suffering i want to end my life you cannot do that to pay for it seems like there was very bad incentives there for example as advertising as i do targets people who already have a hard time it could lead to people considering suicide more strongly i don't disagree with their physician assisted suicide just because like there are certain aspects that are beneficial for it but in terms of the advertising i could go either way like a really it depends on who is in control of that promoting this kind of fings for me is that a progress currently within a year of belgium the netherlands looks a book and switzerland all allow assisted dying but with germany set to join in the concerns are about what is one of the most sensitive of subjects could be set to

become a business opportunity peter all over r.t. . we debated the issue with dr rob junkier who's the communications director of the will federation of right to die societies and beach on top of salty from germany's delete capacity. in reality your posing. as a business or a business model but today she is only only question of the person i was going to die they've dispersed and is not asking for it there will be any. euthanasia but we're talking about a very different thing here court decision was about commercial assisted suicide this isn't allows commercial providers to provide suicide assistance like make dolls of suicide is sort of the objects tool to talking about mcdonalds giving suicide to assistance from people do not want to wait with their

dying till they're finally suffering too much and they want to keep the addicted t. by deceit ruling from the confucian o.-port it is possible for persons to ask a professional to give a proper medically assisted suicide and i think death is a great game this. is a democratic decision makers in parliament have continue to decide against it and the court overruling that is a dangerous precedent of non-democratic decision by this court if you talk about suicide in the media then many people that would not otherwise commit suicide do in fact commit suicide and this is why every report in the media of suicide always shows people where they can go where they can find help and the media try to minimize reports of suicide and so if we see commercial advertising we will see many people seeing that as an easy way out. the u.k.

government is withholding research on grooming gangs this was commissioned after a spate of child sexual exploitation scandals in the home office explained his decision to sit on the findings. we recognise that this topic in general and any insight and learning matters of strong public interest although it does not necessarily follow that it is in the public interest to disclose any specific information relating to it victims agreement gangs accuse the authorities of inaction and empty promises we spoke to one survivor. i that miami church when i was 1st he was 24 years old and he was known to. be a very dangerous person as it used mentally physically and sexually and also into committing crimes as well and that's another part of expletives that many sell and have been subjected to i went to the police when i was 16 and it happened unfortunately but again i went to the police when i think about 27 years old and i

didn't feel to parse it again so i contacted a journalist from a newspaper there and i told him everything that happened and i gave him a last edition you know pieces of evidence to prove what happened and he published my story you know there's 2013 and it was actually because of that where the criminal investigation into that we start said some 100000 suspected victims of child sexual exploitation were reportedly identified by local authorities from 2800 to 29000 that's a huge increase on 5 years earlier the u.k. government found to take action and investigations of the problem of grooming gangs was announced by sajid javid the former home secretary that was in 28 t.v. pledge that he would not let cultural or political sensitivities get in the way victims say the decision not to publish the probe's findings so leaves them with many unanswered questions. i think it's

a disgusting decision and it is definitely in the public's interest you have stallions of children that have being abused exploited i'm going to cry these are sexual acts and we want to know why this is what happened why it's still happening a why these people are being allowed to get away with it there's clearly something in that report that the government doesn't want us to tell about because if they didn't want us there was no we shouldn't they just release it so the fact that they're making excuses and i think is weak excuses well to say it's not a diary chest so the fact that now i google many say well actually we're not even going to release the standings. you know i think it's a real blow to his victims if across the coming from the u.k. home office we await the reply we'll see the ranks in from child protection activist tony bugel who says the decision will undermine trust in politicians. this report was promised to fit. and again they found them and just think that they're

making excuses and all they've done is they have gone back on the word that they gave to victims of these crimes it's a combination of political correctness i think is a cultural sensitivity is i think it's fear of what they believe will stop grace ism people in this country don't trust politicians and he will without being able to see what's going on we don't know if we're being lied to again and now and then that has to stop it and the political correctness of having this this what we fear a backlash would you know what we fear girls being right. next week is super tuesday when u.s. democrats in 14 states will choose their preferred candidate for president with the latest polls showing bernie sanders leads in 9 of those states is ross rivals a crying foul they're alleging his success is all part of

a clever kremlin strategy that is double causa looks at whether the russians have been rumbled. good news comrades our agent bernie sanders is doing better than we expected in the primaries are planned to have 2 agents fight over the presidency operation hammer and sickle is a go but we have one problem some in the democratic party establishment are becoming savvy to our strategy vladimir putin thinks donald trump should be president of the united states and that's why russia is helping bernie sanders get elected so he'll lose to trump it doesn't help that just last week western media published information about our top secret operation exposing the connection between agents trump and sanders with our center in moscow as you learned tonight and today and yesterday the day before is going to have we're going to work help coming from learn to be prudent. for health provider to do want somebody who

didn't think can be from at least agent trump was able to follow orders i admit nothing deny everything and make counter accusations it was highly exaggerated. and frankly i think it's disgraceful and i think it was a leak from the intelligence committee our house version and i think that they leaked it i think probably shipley good agent sanders on the other hand really dropped the ball he panicked and that is the ugliest thing they're doing is they are trying to cause chaos the trying to cause a truth in america it's an ugly business and all of us have got to say sorry you're not going to do this in the selection and again is present in the united states. you will not interfere in our elections and the order was to deny sanders deny but he broke under pressure blowing the cover of our moscow back to bernie bros i design these people they are not part of our movement all of us remember 2016 and what we meant what we remember is efforts by russians and others to try to

interfere in our election and divide us up. i'm not saying that's happening but it would not shock me the center has good reason to believe agent sanders has been compromised we're losing control over his actions and he's praising our strategic allies too openly you know when fidel castro came into office you know what he did he had a massive literacy program it's not a bad think it's only a matter of time before they discover the interview agent sanders gave to profit i mean r t what effect do you think you can have on your voters it was so close here in iowa well i just hope that people take a hard look at the real issues impacting their lives to make matters worse we may have a mole in our midst how else could the footage have been leaked remember when the comrades recruited sanders at the new year's party of 1980 bernie spent his honeymoon in there in soviet russia i mean i think you're going to go back and forth about who's more in the tank with russia it's a really hard one between barney and rob we have made too many tactical blunders as

it is and western pundits are already undergoing a campaign to discredit our agent obviously we know the russians are continuing to try to choose our next president like they chose our last president the russians don't want me to be the nominee who spent a lot of money on bots on facebook and they've been taken down say biden is a bad guy the no one biden rodent rule in politics pick your opponent and putin and trump are picking their opponent the happiest person right now it's about one in 15 moscow time this thing is going very well for blatter we have to promise you. probably stay up watching us right now how you doing we'll have our rivals already know too much comrade commissar i think it's time to extract our agents. model sounds a bit farfetched to you but the phrase russian t.v. has been trending on twitter in the u.s. after the chairman of the democratic coalition posted a video of bernie sanders wife appearing on r.t. . bernie sanders would fare better against donald trump and hillary clinton. i have

no doubt and all i have to do is look at every primary and caucus that was an open primary where independents could vote or republicans could go over and vote he won . bernie sanders his wife went on russian t.v. to explain why open primaries like the south carolina democratic primary on saturday are more democratic because they allow republicans to vote for who the democratic nominee should be sorry jane this is just wrong. back in the 4 year old clip jane sun this is speaking to america. with hosted a show on one of the most pro-democrat news networks m s n b c long before his death in 2018 he revealed how his coverage of bernie sanders 2016 stab at the democratic nomination and raised his boss's. when bernie sanders was a mail saying that he was going to be

a candidate for the nomination of the democratic party in burlington vermont i was the only cable host between fox m s n b c and c.n.n. that was there a live coverage there were a lot of cameras there but we coordinated with the sender's campaign that at 5 o'clock he was going to make his announcement and we were going to cover this on the edge show it's 5 minutes to air and i get a phone call from phil griffin you're not covering this i said phil. bernie sanders is announcing he's running for president he's going to be president here you're not covering this now let me give you the opinion i think the clintons were connected and the lack connected at the hip i think that they didn't want anybody in their prime time or any any were in their line up supporting bernie sanders i think that they were in the tank for hillary clinton and i think it was managed in 45 days later i was out at m.s.n. b.c.

. now the democratic candidate is poised to school his 1st victory in the primaries in south carolina he's losing something else explains after the break. the point is should we actually be charging for education because this is when we charge for things it's because it's a benefit to the person who is buying it and that's the audiology to education about 30 or 40 years ago but the perspective of education was originally that education is a benefit for society in general i wouldn't want to live in a society without doctors or engineers all saw it as what happened without economists. saying it of being a profit benefit ignoring the public means that we're ignoring that the skill basis

we need for a sophisticated society and putting the burden of that school biases on the individuals and what we've turned it into is just now the trend institution of higher education become a form a version of a real estate scam that is not the bisons for a functional saudi. joining me every thursday on the alex simon chill and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. the sun does opponent in the race for the democratic nomination job i did this place to win the next primary in south carolina it would be if so his 1st scalp. could be might not be pons biggest problem.

my name's joe biden i'm a democratic candidate for the united states senate look over here like regime help out is not bowled rather by give me a look though ok. proudest of. is jenny past getting moved to getting control of the paris climate accord i'm a guy that came back after a meeting with young child pretty. my son one of. my deceased son was the attorney general of the only states in the war that he was a federal prosecutor one of the largest offices in the country and in philadelphia .

it is important that i want to grab them spoken. there flooding a dead a horse or are trying to push that dead horse back into the race across the finish line might be another way to look at it yes it does seem futile that they're trying to prop him up but he can't raise money he's putting all his hopes. on being convincing south carolina black voters that he's the next rock obama and it's just a matter of time before he fans those voters with making some horrible misstatement now it's time for him to step aside. a multi-million dollar national security agency's. valence program in the u.s.

has only managed to provide unique data for just a couple of cases according to a newly declassified study by u.s. government watchdog there is a surveillance program called prism tap to u.s. domestic phone calls in 2007 to 2019 1st exposed to the public by whistleblower edward snowden it was aimed at preventing terrorist attacks in the past 4 years the program has cost taxpayers 100000000 dollars however major doubts have now been raised over its effectiveness a new report reveals in a 4 year period the program yielded only one significant investigation moreover only 2 times in the last 4 years that it managed to generate information that wasn't already known by the f.b.i. prism program was authorized through several pieces of legislation including u.s. patriot act signed by president george w. bush in the wake of the 911 attacks it was revised as the u.s. freedom act following the snowden revelations in 2013 but it's set to expire next month from the top of ministration struggling to keep it alive investigative journalist and author joe lauria believes the report proves that there's no need

for mass surveillance. it proves what was fernando anyone who could see clearly that this was a fraud from the very beginning this was about power and money the power of the government control the american people and the money the contractors that ran this program have made this based on false fear and that's the last line of defense of the united states all the time to try to confuse the interests of a small number of powerful people with the interests of the nation you know the united states has had a long history of this false fear of keeping the american people afraid and trying to say that they have to be protected it's basically a protection racket they scare the people and then they say we will protect you that's what the mafia does hopefully this report will get the wide attention it deserves so that's beginning people begin to question these false narratives of fear and why they need these kinds of 1000000000 dollar programs that make them rich and keep them powerful but does nothing for the american people and in fact it invades their privacy in a complete violation of the constitution this report should hammer that home that

this is a bogus program there is no national security at stake there is no reason for the government of spied on american people when only one case came out of all of this and it has to stop. the case rule down to aligning with the rules as part of any post briggs trade deal one of the things brussels is insisting on is a continued ban on chlorinated chicken imports that public does likely to be pushed for by the americans in the trade negotiations with britain on the skate park which has been. europe's in a flap over britain potentially importing chlorine wash chicken from the u.s. as part of a new trade deal with washington the e.u. outlawed the practice in 1997 and the french are saying if the brits been the ban they can forget any deal with the block these little guys with a nuke the british companies i hear them i see them i mean they all tell me we want to keep european rules because we want to ensure access to 500000000 european

consumers but also in the wings is the u.s. which for years has tried and failed to get the e.u. to weaken its food and farming standards to bring them into line with america's breck's it presents a chance to break open a major european market the other issue which people got very obsessed about here is chlorinated chicken deliver on our comes that benefit the agricultural sector and most importantly consumers who are going to be the beneficiaries of these really good deals american producers claim they've turned away from chlorine in favor of other disinfectants but the e.u. still believes the use of such methods at the end of the meat production process could compensate for poor hygiene standards plus other fears of inhumane treatment while farmers leaders think it would be madness to import such goods this year the government must show global leadership insists that u.k. farm standards are the benchmark for climate friendly farming around the world and that whoever wants to trade with us trades on our terms. and we must not allow

those standards to be undermined by imports of goods which would be illegal for afghan most to produce here to the average briton chlorine is associated with keeping swimming pools clean and not for washing chickens so what do people think on the streets of london would you restrict it as we did to glory no calls no no you've. got to be vegetarian and i'm going to. give you more that's not really any of that no i definitely wouldn't eat it i just hated the cheese and buy my chicken there so they get they quite welcome so here we don't have to buy it so yeah i wouldn't buy it yet but i think the problem is that people wouldn't necessarily know so on the one hand there's the chance of a deal with the e.u. already the u.k.'s biggest trading partner and guaranteed food standards on the other a potential deal with the us the world's biggest economy and cheap chlorine chicken

greetings and sal you take issue we begin today hawk watchers with a little trip to the great north country of canada where battle lines have been drawn in the the long fight over frack gas pipelines and the future of indigenous 1st nation rights has taken a very dramatic turn in recent weeks yes canadian prime minister minister mr teen beat magazine himself just go has found himself in quite the predicament as indigenous people and environmental activists have blocked rail lines and mounted protests across the country in solidarity with the wasa whitten 1st nation hereditary chiefs and land offenders who are desperately desperately trying to prevent a frack gas pipeline from being built across their unseeded lands in british columbia the new york times reports that quote after

a 2 week period that elevated the national political temp temperature disrupted much of the rail service in eastern canada and led to layoffs prime minister justin trudeau called for an end to the blockades in support of the hereditary watched weapons chiefs in british columbia and it's how that is playing out that has added even more fuel to the fires of protest in the solidarity with the tribe monday it was reported that despite a statement declaring that quote there has always and continues to be a willingness from the thai and the naga mohawks to discuss an exit strategy of the c.n. rail line main main line that didn't stop canada's royal mounted police force as you can see from physically removing the 1st nation protesters from their camp a camp that never actually physically blocked the rail line they still got moved out so today my friends let's go.
