him or to give him a chance to get noticed. and then the government is well why were we prepare for this virus if you guys are certain season stays down at the economy down why don't we have enough just to get it will test the border virus if it's that big of a. while our. it's all to come back to the hospital if you need to later. when the government although your system really feels the american citizens. well let's turn attention to the united kingdom where the government's plans to get some children back into the classroom is facing further resistance more than 1500 primary schools in england say they are against throwing open their doors from next month forcing the authorities to threaten sanctions breaking down this story and the ramifications are tee shot at which the. as
5:06 am
schools across europe begin to open their gates the united kingdom doesn't want to fall behind in class in a bid to get britain moving again boris johnson the prime minister want to try and get all primary school kids back in the classroom in less than 2 weeks time while the virus is still out there though boris johnson and number 10 maintains it's safe enough to get kids back on track the best way of protecting children the best way of giving them the best opportunities in life is actually to have been coming back into school for some parents it couldn't come soon enough as school hours would be a complete game changer for mums and dads going back to work but many you are working from home say sending military ones back would be bad parenting in fact over 80 percent of parents are refusing to send their children to school if they reopen in june on safety grounds and over 60 percent say they won't set their kids in until the new academic year in september at the very earliest and certainly could be very dangerous and they say the virus doesn't affect children too much and
5:07 am
we all know that some viruses can be carriers with. sometimes attention dangerous but children could carry the virus amongst themselves to other people who could be vulnerable in school and. my daughter was 5 when she. so she when she wants contact in concert with a lot of friends. get to know them again and. it could be potentially dangerous it was one of the reasons why and she was near advocated for. closure of schools quite quickly when the crisis started however the u.k. government is ringing the school bell and trying to persuade parents is the right thing to do by showing other european models other countries have succeeded in making him return skeete safely other european countries like denmark don't want countries like denmark has less than a 1000 deaths the u.k. is hurtling towards the 40000 mark deeming it the worst affected in europe and 2nd highest number of fatalities in. world and it's not just parents of

a hesitant in the face of the push to reopen teachers do have a legal right to stay away but many schools have never even shut so it's a lockdown some have been teaching a handful of peoples of key workers and others which has already seen 36 teaching staff die of cope at 19 and you can sit here and guarantee that no teacher is going to catch coronavirus as a result of going back to school the only way ever to ensure that you never catch coronavirus is to stay at home completely and when it comes to social distancing and keeping our numbers low teachers ferro be nigh on impossible to keep kids apart not to mention making sure the spaces say well maybe an office has to protect you. for. stuff. and. not risk. of. protective p.p.h. an economy. using short supply. in the care homes rightly so you know
5:09 am
there isn't and. as things stand teachers do have the backing of their unions plus the u.k.'s leading body of doctors unions who also it's far too soon to go back to the classrooms early and they're not even hearing any concrete evidence to prove otherwise until we have got case number smushed lower we should not consider reopen in schools how many councils are rebelling against their heads including liverpool heart people in greater manchester or levels of this inspections are the only way those that i'm not about risks with children with stuck with 3 children professionals like those but for now the government says it is safe to reopen schools though not everyone is convinced if i if i had such children of any age where they were expected to go on the 1st i may not be standard but i don't think it has the right. tell members of the population what you should do in regard to
5:10 am
deceive the well being of natural. parents. so much the good news. they have a reputation for telling lies i'm sure parents believe. the teachers and the unions and medical profession rather than the government the trustees so as the government continues with its class act its own set of rules and no reassurance of safety when schools do reopen all the teachers can try and do is place hygiene at the top of the correctly then shut out with daschle r.t. london. european capital parra says are in the sky efforts to keep tabs on lockdown violators hers being grown did that after a court bum the use of drones in the french capital for such surveillance across the story for us charlotte tube and square. the view from above drew's sweeping
5:11 am
across cities in france is part of police efforts not only to keep an eye on things but also to get a message across. that message during lock down from the drone loudspeaker it was a reminder to all that they needed permits to be outside all non-essential travel outside the home is a prohibited bellowed the drones had other uses to alerting the police to any unusual gatherings perhaps a more efficient way to monitor the streets or as george orwell once described it it was the police patrol snooping then began the fight back human rights groups had warned of
5:12 am
a threat to personal privacy they took their case to court and they were. the drugs were effectively being used illegally this initiative was carried out by the police without any preliminary consultation the national commission on liberty and information and the state council therefore the council has eliminated this flaw in the police system in order to take all necessary measures suspend the use of drones for now. well at least here in paris france is highest administrative court ruled that aerial drones can no longer be used here to track people flouting social distancing rules during the fight against 19 government officials and the paris police it's all good that they weren't trying to identify people but simply watch so that they knew where to send the patrols. technology. helps but it's not enough human presence is the key thing the drug is
5:13 am
not going to replace a police officer. but that didn't wash with the court given the risks of use are contrary to the rules for personal data protection the implementation of this private data processing on behalf of the state characterized as a serious and manifestly illegal infringement of respecting private lives in paris the drones have been brought back down to earth with the not so in other big cities such as must say nice where they are still in use but the human rights group behind this when i say there could be other challenges. do you really want to acknowledge called police to monitor our beaches can france live without cameras flying over the beaches this is an issue that in my opinion should be put up for public and parliamentary discussion i repeat this practice is implemented with no prior consultation. many liberties groups might also hope that this case can prove
5:14 am
a starting point in other countries to where the use of drones to monitor the public during the pandemic has become normalized. it's a win for right now but it could soon be overturned it's still within the government's power to issue a decree outlining the conditions of how police drones could be used in the future if that then gets approved by the national data privacy watchdog big brother will be not just observing from this tactic surveillance cameras were all used to but from the heavens see and you may never. even though they were watching the show the
