actually. know. which your thirst for action. but explode test in paris is figures show more than $50000.00 health workers became infected with corona virus during the pandemic. in the u.k. report shows that the height of the health crisis in the country around 25000 patients were discharged from hospital to care homes without being tested because with 90. tens of thousands of coronavirus deaths in the e.u. and public anger towards its leadership of the crisis the blocked out accuses russia and china way to get this information wall during the pandemic.

very good afternoon joining us here on r.t. and. health workers have vented their anger on the streets of paris in protest over their working conditions at hospitals this comes after reports were published into the number of medics infected by corona virus during the pandemic official sources state that there were more than $30000.00 cases in public hospitals and $16000.00 in nursing homes plus a french doctors pension fund says that there were also $6000.00 self-employed doctors who caught the virus and that takes the total to more than $50000.00 cases charlotte has more from paris. a demonstration here outside the paris hospital is just one of those judy could laugh a movement of hospital workers shouting at that anger in front of hospitals now it comes as parts of the health service in france have been experiencing unprecedented

pressure since the start of the 19 crisis it was already a service that many had said was close to collapse without a huge injection of money and much more staff and now to add to the family of the latest figures show that more than 50000 health care workers caught with 19 it once again begs the question was enough to give health workers to doctors nurses poulter's ambulance and technical staff and many others say working hard for they only have a very very angry because there's been a shortage of staff for years already and this pandemic has created an even bigger problem promises were made but in fact they haven't been capped we still have a lack of beds and not is just getting why us i think that we want ready for this we haven't been protected enough we have a shortage of equipment and that's why we failed those who got infected. these poor

ones never had enough people be they were in duty voluntarily they had contact with infected people from the very beginning there was a lack of equipment beds and tests in germany for example they did quite well maybe because the government responded confidently to social and economic problems and did all what was necessary from the beginning and maybe even before that. i don't want to we want we are not demanding species in metal for our own safety we want $100000.00 want places to be created in a year we did validation of salaries in public hospitals we demand the nomen of public hospital that would demand an increase in the budget will be a real policy to support public hospitals. the cry of anger comes as a true little investigation has a few nose ring to have france handled the pandemic it was opened by the paris chief prosecutor after more than $40000.00 more complaints were brought not just by civil groups but also boy members of the public now the investigation will look at

the alleged failure to put in place anti virus protection to provide facemasks to producing vaccine and to road testing to identify carriers of the virus the possible charges of involuntary homicide involuntary injury and in danger of life are also being examined now the focus of the inquiry will be the public health body in front song trance alongside the health ministry and also the national prison administration but it will not focus on political nor administrative responsibility and france is not the only country that is asking questions over how the crisis was handled in italy prosecutors are to question the prime minister just called take along with other ministers such as the health and interior ministers now they want to know why a red zone wasn't in force back in february around 2 towns in the north of the country so with the european countries are merging from the health crisis the focus

is now turning to how they handle dates and there are many who are very critical of the government's demanding to know if they could have done more to save loved ones charlotte even ski r.t. paris. new figures reveal thousands of patients in england who sent homes at the height of the pandemic with the majority not being tested for covert 19 at the time now the report was 25000 hospital patients discharged between mid march mid april when the rules changed prior to april 15th not all patients were tested because priority was given to those with flu like symptoms but it's unclear how many of those who arrived at the care homes had the virus the british health secretary says that the situation in the center is now finally under control. the number of people dying in care homes is also falling figures from the c 2 c. show that there's a 79 percent fall from the peak of the crisis in. the week ending april the 24th

to the week ending the 29th of may the latest one the doctors of opal or the new analysis suggests the deaths will account for more than half of walk over the related deaths in england according to estimates the death toll in the country will be nearly 60000 by the end of june with 34000 of those predicted to be home residents nevertheless fresh testimony from whistleblowers in the center suggests that current homes are trying to cover up cases of infection i discussed this with eileen chubs she's the founder of the whistleblower charity compassion in care she believes that the behavior of management in certain homes put the lives of both staff and residents at risk. social care has been a major problem for a long time i mean you know we all know the horror stories and bad care homes and. or they're given a good rating and they shouldn't and they don't deserve that i think that we need to look at the social care system and completely change things in the future we

need to learn from this really learn from it not just pour money into it but actually fix it and i think that's why we need a full inquiry into what's happened here and i think as well as social care staff they're treated their lives are of no value that's how that's how they feel and that the evidence is coming across to ours their lives don't matter at all and they put it with every day and they do they do a brilliant job there's good staff in every care home this bad stuff and some homes and there's bad homes but mostly there's good start off doing their best and their contact you know it's because they care. now after the e.u. is a coronavirus hot spot during the crisis it is starting to point the finger of blame the blocs accusing russia and china of orchestrating a massive this information campaign during the pandemic and the e.u. commission's also calling on social networks not just to delete everything they

think is fake but also to produce reports on the work that they have done with all the details here's my guess the. often times you hear what europeans see big headlines about disinformation and trolls and you just wonder that the russians or the chinese really have nothing better to do but then you read the headlines again disinformation waves have heat to europe during the current virus pandemic there originating from within as well as outside their opinion disinfo mission in terms of the corona virus can kill we have a duty to protect our citizens by making them aware of false information and expose the ex is responsible for a gaijin in such practices some years ago europe took action it created east strata com task force which runs a website e.u. the disinfo to identify and to track this information and think news every year they get millions of euros and the blessings of top europe kratz to do their thing

leading elites in europe. were. very much on the level of program. and so all of course. you're all. one goal of those 2 green for worked all night years you want to bring forward a society you don't bring forward for 5000000000 euro for something like finding freight news in 2018 e.-v. disinfo targeted dutch media outlets largely europe skeptic outlets surprisingly enough labeling their stories fake news but which they were soon forced the correct themselves because they lied and because the lot of them bassman for the e.u. our analysis demonstrates that you vs does enforce headlines and summaries border on descent from asian according to the east rat coms own definition of the term so they visit r.t. for example and report

a sentence entirely out of context such as this bill gates is working on deep population policies and plans for dictatorial control of world politics that's insane you might say how could our t. say such a thing well we didn't here's the full extract. and italian legislator has succeeded in taking the absolute theories of the koran epidemic to new heights by using her platform in parliament to denounce bill gates as a vaccinate and alleged globalist tool so odd like many european an italian outlets route a story about and i quote absurd theories which by the taliban m p e u v disinfo copped out the part where an italian m.p. said it and ignored the part where a plethora of other media outlets reported it and tried to frame it as if odd she said it like there was no m.p. and nazi was publishing ludicrous conspiracy theories and you'd never know unless

you went to check the fact checkers though it's a stretch to call them that the creative artist came from a liberal tree and recurring conspiracy theory that acars proved kremlin dissin from asian about the artificial creation of 19 a recurring prove kremlin decent from ation conspiracy theory naturally thing ripped it out of context in that segment odds he was discussing how the media itself gives crazy conspiracy theories credits by paying attention to them but really really the unsubstantiated claims of who would nineteen's lab origins up russian this information have you seen anything at this point that gives you a high degree of confidence that the would hand institute of raji was the origin of this virus. yes they have we don't have certainty and there is significant evidence that this came from the laboratory the statements can both be true i've made them both administration officials have made them they're all true why isn't my compare

secretary of state on that least or donald trump president of the united states y r t which never even made the claim because that isn't what strata east is paid to do if they can't find anything to report. bad big bad russia well people above will ask questions and cut funding european commission didn't find the governments work as well they didn't kind of consistent ready to end a covert to clamp of the corner crisis i think it's a very dangerous way and the moment the rupee incompletion tries to district. the attention away from their own crisis and bring forward an enemy in which that is not a good idea i can't speak for other publications that wound up on their website but every entry for r.t. is either a made up allegation or

a sentence completely pulled out of context and for this east rat com gets about 5000000 euros a year to find russian this information or make it up that is when they are busy targeting euro skeptics at home how many mosques or ventilators could you buy for that those medical supplies that were soon badly needed when the pandemic hit when tens of thousands of europeans died because of shortages when europe pratt's had to have a big forgiveness were not there on time when italy needed a helping hand at the very beginning. and yes for that it is right that europe as a whole offers a heartfelt apology and that's why the desperate to make up any way to blame russia or china or anything to avoid apologizing they get but hats off to strategy east you ask any season more all caught tell bank of laundering 800000 euros

a week isn't easy as an idea proposed a magical european agency to root out and banished maligned spirits because even if google still did exist strasbourg least moves how to conjure them up for money. for colonial monuments across the globe are facing demands to be dismantled raising once again questions on how the dog appearance of history should be handled the story and more after the. arm structure of nature is connected to the spin down. that's when there's a lesson there between the feeling in the lesson for us we're going to repeat this

over and over as you can teach destroy the last wild places on earth and we shelter these kinds of these. small seemed wrong when all the roles just don't call. me old yet to stamp out disdain he comes to agitate and in games from an equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just in the common ground. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to get a little the politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then.

welcome back the war on colonial statues sparked by the black lives matter movement is spreading across the world now a statue of a british naval captain has been removed to new zealand jon hamilton was kept in during a series of bloody battles with local marys over disputed territory a monument was dismantled at the request of local tribes or there had also been a threat by one man but that it would be removed by force there of the city of hamilton which is named after the captain said the deal forties instead of some might view it is culturally offensive and that they would now think of relocating it on thursday local tribe leader called for a review of all colonial statues and place names that symbolize oppression and colonialism. in britain after the black lives might a movement managed to tear down the statue of slave trade edward colston and throw it into the harbor the now demanding more monuments be removed and these police went to a protester not. what is it that you hate about the stop change it was not

like culture it was pretty much built on some type. of cause an excuse to die i am an ox and i'm here for a per test against a statue a statue of a victorian imperialist called cecille right it's the he didn't to be empty didn't say sessile words it was the founder of the southern african country of ready d.c.s. which is now modern day zimbabwe and it was actually named off to him in 1895 but he sort of see that as someone who really pushed for this idea of white dominance and colonialism in africa to quote all the people here taking him by him

and thus they would meaning now they're sat down in solidarity with the movement the b.l.m. they've been really big now. tearing down the statue. like . signals usually to shave yet it's a symbol of the simply waiting in the sea the moon and the boat like senses. i found in greece. and italy. just as we deal with the issue. j.c. . says she says she says to. vergers

that just let's celebrate. the statue. was. it. terrorists see the statue that way where is it there it is then they can always learn more about the bad legacy and the bloody legacy rather than if it was taken down right but you don't want to be on camera saying this because. it is a very sensitive because it's a sensitive issue that you get that's from an anonymous academic in oxford this sniper. i started for 6 the police offices above the staff here. protecting and. i have to say this has to be the most high brow.

and intellectual protest i have ever attended. which is very fitting seeing as it's space historian peter believes the while dismantling colonial monuments has good intentions the history of the dark past shouldn't be abolished. but i think it's important to remove these symbols or these people who are being celebrated as heroes what they represent is the symbols of racism and it's important also to keep those symbols and put in museums because i think it's important that we recognize that history we can't whitewash that history and we can ignore that history we have to study that history in the united states we've got slave holders who are some who are early presidents we have

to study each of them as in the historical context that they lived and somebody like jefferson has some great ideas but he also has some very backward very disgusting ideas and all countries have histories that there should not be and are not proud of the way to deal with that is not to ignore it or to teach students lies about it and next is to confront it directly because that's still part of our d.n.a. it's still part of who we are in the united states house speaker nancy pelosi is leading the fight against confederate stances on capitol hill she's even sent a letter to the joint committee in the library asking for them to be removed due to the links to racism can you imagine jefferson davis alexander stephens. treason it she's an expensive united states and the statute is

a shield him because there's states like him here. well there live in the statues display soldiers and officials who served in the confederacy and fought to preserve slavery democrats are largely calling for them to be taken down along with a number of major military bases to be renamed however president john puzzle already stated he simply won't reconsider the names of any military installations because they are part of u.s. history. and america's rethinking of history doesn't end there big corporations have recently been taking a closer look at how they present themselves h.b.o. for instance is temporarily pulling many favorite classics that romanticize slavery from its platform or big tech firms of tweak their voice assistance to support the black lives matter movement it's good taylor has been looking into the story. holmes not why not i delete. i think because past a policeman well yes it and then she didn't spend that stature will he just delete or interesting interesting i mean haven't done anything yet but my feet so.

what started as a protest against police brutality inequality has evolved into. the walls but i only really examine our history and build this precious free term p.-a the excessive use of the corrective pen how about some with feeding the reexamination is a politically correct synonym for censorship jason i'm off for example my sister was actually named after the house and the highest grossing movie of all time go out with the wind and margin this shot and she was caught just out to sell this so non grata of the age must pull the cult movie from its top form these races depictions were wrong then and are wrong today and we felt that to keep this up without an explanation and a denouncement of those depictions will be irresponsible and will be tough but with

a little history lesson in beginning to really get you in the mood another classic little britain has also been dropped from streaming topples because of it he's not face tariffed is actually someone says i'm fat because well justin trudeau and he's still prime minister isn't he and what. it is so now they can reply please tell me what the proletariat which as your know me. there's a lot of historical programming available on b.b.c. i player which we regularly review times have changed since little britain 1st aired so it's not currently available on b.b.c. i player also now it's toes huge it just pulled. any public moment you know not just roll it into the river after this oh don't worry if you see children wandering around a bit lost that street might be renamed new york doing up by renaming was a street in each of its 5 hours master confusing and paint here on the actual road

itself so no one can hear florence he is all moving into one direction what will be clear is the street name and on the streets of our city is the message that now the city must fully fully deeply feel and this nation must as well that black lives matter even language itself is being written probably the last comma you ever thought they could get into any trouble was eat dictionary publisher but one woman in missouri found that musty old marianne must have doesn't create a systematic oppression of people in its many entry races or so it undergoes a serious revision also defined as changing absolutely everything there being canceled this is the kind of continuous revision is part of the work of keeping the dictionary today it's based on rigorous criteria and research we employ in order is a scribe the language as it's actually used what i'm johnny the what race might be

banned from the constitution all together. in racism the war graves should be removed from the basic law there is no such things as arrays there are only people and finally you might have seen that people say all as much or not specifically black lives nasa gets a bit riled up well don't worry because now your food will keep you on the straight and narrow syrup wise not. so. yes. and i actually now that i've got syria here when are firing our questions when siri can't delete history i don't. come out syria why is the shah is certainly well apparently the answer is yes he can.

russia said back over the arrest of one of its nationals in berlin music musician denise carson a cheer was detained at the request of washington over accusations of cyber crimes the foreign ministry spokesperson said that russia will attempt to prevent his extradition to the u.s. and dif there is a trial one said to be held in germany. might be cherished or i'd like to point out that so far no concrete information regarding denise doesn't achieve he has been presented to russian diplomats in berlin we do the possible extradition of course the chief of the united states unacceptable and we will take steps to prevent this from happening we expect berland to be sensible enough not to talk washington's line under questioning lee which has a history of extending its extraterritorial jurisdiction to russian nationals all over the world the century they have been hunting for russian nationals usually are made up pretexts are far removed from law and justice. because the show was

arrested in late late part of last month and is now in custody in berlin his friends have launched a petition on social media calling for him to be freed the d.j. and producer is accused of money laundering and of activities on the dark web he denies all the charges and says that key data in the charge documents show that it has nothing to do with it because the show's lawyer believes there's no need to keep the russian imprisoned. that is what we know this point is that these guys that sheriff was arrested on a warrant issued by a call to meet you in state of maryland this is adamant that he's in no were involved with the crime he's being accused of his money laundering through the dark web for more than 10 years that he says he has never even visited the darknet and so he could not possibly have committed any of those crimes prison it's hard for a person who doesn't speak german life to nice as there are lots of formalities he has to go through with require filing written requests in german i want to bring up the issue of releasing this because let's hear from prison pending the court

decision on his extradition at the end of the day there's no real need to keep him in custody he lives in berlin and is not going to evade court proceedings after all even if you wanted to he wouldn't be able to flee as he doesn't have much money and once again this is not his objective that this is a world renowned musician who's entirely devoted to his music and plans to continue in the profession in future. and stay with him at international about with updates in half an hour's time see them. the ability.

you can be lonely with the yeah you want. this is a boom bust the one business show you can't afford to miss i'm french a bore in washington coming up markets are slipping on fears of

a 2nd coronavirus wave and.
