6:05 am
sipping points in the red british sun and oldest then maybe they should start listening to the doctors and take a step back given the current situation we have still 80 to 90 percent people and in fact if they don't have antibodies in the blood this mean any change in the social behavior will bring the virus greater close. to the transmission level we have seen before so if they control the years or more a good deal strictly as they should be opening up earlier in time especially many of the countries now would risk a 2nd wave and it is not inevitable but not following the sort should the stunting and the controlled media that have been put in place would certainly raise the 2nd rate believe it to curtail this infection is to really keep their distance and. others from told me you're so just washing your hands and giving personal hygiene the only solution moving forward. the british prime minister barak's johnson has
6:06 am
triggered outrage of a comment suggesting be kept homes like they might be responsible for the country's huge death toll from kovac 19. we discovered a too many care homes didn't really follow the procedures in the way that they could have but whether any lessons the whole time one of the most important is to is to fund them probably talk another 600000000 into code compliant care homes but would also be looking at ways to make sure the care sector long term is properly organized and supported care providers have moved to adopt these new procedures consistently and space and with integrity mr johnson's comments in relation to care homes following a procedure is a no there cured no welcome the government's policies on this were really bad the priority was all about the n.h.s. when care homes were most at risk we had people being discharged from hospital without testing it was only when we raised the alarm with figures showing how many
6:07 am
residents were infected the prime minister seemed to take any note at all well the anger comes as figures reveal just over a 3rd of all deaths in care homes in england and wales were linked to cope with 19 of nearly $20000.00 fêtes teletubbies according to the latest statistics the estimates cover the period from early march to mid june. i was being adding phil to the flames as the facts 25000 hospital patients in england were discharged to have homes at the height of the pandemic not all the patients were being tested for corona virus until april 15th when the rules changed before that priority was given to patients with flu like symptoms it's unclear how many of those who were discharged to care homes at the time were infected my pageant from the independent care group believes this sector urgently requires more support from the governments . when i'm shocked than angry basically it will be said to the shop in the place
6:08 am
for. their own lives on the line in the march and i would get to his claims that the majority of us did of the guy and to the letter of it's worth remembering that in february the public of england said that. very unlikely that people the care home would become effected show we didn't need to do anything different we looked down early we got people we did the testing is as much as you could get hold of tesoro can we don't everything we possibly can to reduce the number of deaths or i could think was that he's not been properly. i think. and previous governments in the u.k. have been very lax on social was putting it to the bottom of our it is and i think it's a lack of information knowledge what just does happen out there so it might be a social care homes are as important as the n.h.s. and should be treated as such we need to do now rather by each of these 4 and make sure we take. social care entrepreneurial up going forward.

the small scottish island of cologne say was lucky enough to avoid the coronavirus pandemic and locals want to keep it that way by making sure its doors to tourists remain shut. the spirit we want to protect our community. is maybe hard to imagine what a small community it is there's only about 100 people that live here in. the just government have a responsibility. we have the opportunity to see no
6:10 am
thanks. we really miss a lot of the tourists that we have one column c. on my island been coming 3 years and years and years i know my whole life and i miss them enormously in order to still have the island and. we need to reach a residents of the island and if that means going down today for another month. meanwhile clear the forest concerns of seeing the families of the victims of the grand fell tower tragedy locked out of the public inquiry now on the way in london will get their views in just a few minutes about. public transport companies adopting an
6:11 am
unusual approach in a bid to get passengers to cover their faces properly during the pandemic posters have been percept claiming people are banned from wearing deodorant on the subway in the hope it will encourage better use of face mollusks pace all of a has been sniffing around. masks and face coverings the rostov accessory of 2020 not exactly a decision driven by fashion of course but as lock downs of being lifted many people i'd change their masks not so fast says the government here in berlin who are telling people. to keep covered up were the minimum distance cannot be guaranteed in public life masks are an important and from today's perspective still indispensable means to keep the infection numbers low and to protect our fellow human beings and ourselves so whether on the bus in the subway
6:12 am
or in retail the obligation to wear masks should remain the chancellor herself is being seen out and about in a mask when she can't socially distance from others one of the issues to rise from this requirement to wear a mask is the number of people who would know wearing them correctly the 2 main culprits seem to be the chain muska which basically defeats the point of having a must go on in the 1st place and. the free knows which scene is a mask to be effective has to cover both mouth and nose also render this place pretty useless that's prompted berlin's public transport provider to get creative when it comes to convincing passengers to cover up correctly and it's voters that leave their noses exposed that they're targeting through one of the great commuter blog i'm talking of course about the smell of
6:13 am
a passenger's bill in public transport our form when it comes to their advertising during fashion week they've joked around the city's head in a stick reputation that they're happy for passengers to be wearing any clothes at all and that the german capital's public transport would pick you up even when you're. own mother wouldn't. do berliners think enough people in the german capital a wearing masks and doing it correctly i guess it just goes does and i'm a tourist here from dusseldorf and here in berlin there are not so many mosques compared to just where we had more room to something that. i think it definitely is sufficient it depends on the country and the culture but here in berlin it works pretty good it depends on the location on public transport it works well but sometimes people do not wear it properly. 90 percent of the correct way.
6:14 am
germans have to learn. because we get fined for b. go to put them on properly cinchona see mice i don't think that most of the people are wearing it right but sometimes you see them doing this that makes no sense but most are doing it right. just as far as i can see most are wearing masks the some of them are not doing it right you can see the new sticking out but on public transport most are wearing it. without a vaccine corona is going to be with us for a while yet and as long as it is masks on the face coverings whether we like it or not going to be part of our daily lives are all over our tea. don't count as feeling the heat of the moment he's being pressured to reveal whether he was break the power port that russia has allegedly paid bounties to the taliban through u.s. troops in afghanistan this means being grilled about briefings is becoming a tried and tested tactic in u.s.

6:16 am
when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. welcome back and the scandal is brewing over election meddling although for a change it isn't russia that's being blamed the president of the european commission is on the father over a recent posting croatia i made claims that she breached the code of conduct for commission officials explains. when you hear the phrase meddling in an election i bet your 1st thought is a war rushed. to now because that if course is the kind of accusation
6:17 am
that makes the headlines whether or not the facts are there to support it but when the european commission president is it who is of or meddling in the state election oh you've not heard about but one well i see let me bring you up to speed ursula delay and has found herself in a bit of a sticky wicket after she was accused of not just poking her nose in the corporation elections but also indorsing the ruling party she had the head of arts critic say the boy appearing in this video vonda lane has broken a huge to boot here she is one of the most recognizable female politicians in the world essentially telling croatians to vote for the croatian democratic union party and that's led to her being reported to the european for breach of the code of
6:18 am
conduct for commissioners under such a code code of conduct for the members of the european commission e.u. commission is must abstain from making public statements or interventions on behalf of any political party of which they are members on this they are for expressed. to the president of the e.u. commission the rationale for such a prohibition is to prevent conflict of interest between the e.u. commission is to enforce. visa of the member states and then national political allegiances now a spokesperson for the e.u. commission has tried to blame this on a mistake the president recorded a short sound bite for use in a video game involving a number of european people's party politicians it was meant as a contribution in her personal capacity regrettably this. made clear in the final version of the video but that's not appeasing everyone some say that she should be
6:19 am
sanctioned. you should know that this violated the e.u. commission code of conduct. and should for the now when voted to lend became the commission president she laid down her own rules values for europeans to live by and that included this our democratic systems and institutions have come increasingly under attack in recent years from those who wish to divide and destabilize our union we need to do more to protect ourselves from external interference seems she missed the part out about internal influence over hat that's ok and it seems that just point the case is this is not the 1st time the volm delay has been accused of putting or in where it snort to 3 years ago when she was just germany's defense minister it was poland that was on the receiving end of
6:20 am
influence on a tool she said it was important to support the healthy democratic resistance over the young generation in that country now poland's former foreign minister was a less than pleased calling the colemans evidence of german politicians interfering in the internal affairs of his country now this is not the only scandal to hit her since her election home to lay in has been under pressure over accusations that she may have destroyed evidence on her smartphones that was relating to lucrative contracts awarded during her time as the german defense minister so with these latest accusations of meddling now swirling around it seems that 2020 is not vul delay in ca show that he ought to see paris. political commentator john bricmont believes the psagot won't have much of an impact within the e.u. it's a pretty pretty big mistake on their i don't thing there being any consequence who
6:21 am
is going to take wins is the cause of the carter won the elections i have been your position god much so i don't know who's going to limit or that i mean you know this is. going to say that she was acting as a member of the c.u. which is about the of the hague and it's a later the great thing about the internet. i don't think she should have gone there and people me. for that. it's not that important because none of the european union in durban and the 150 or the holds of the york. the decision of the commission and so on so the modeling is clearly there other than the deep of the. election. after 3 years of delays a public inquiry into the tragedy
6:22 am
a grand full tower in london is finally under way the inferno at the block of flats claimed $72.00 lives and was initially caused by a faulty fridge however the blaze quickly spread upward and golfing the entire building and initial investigations discovered the outside cladding which had recently been renovated with extremely flammable fire services at the scene were also criticised for not ordering residents to evacuate 3 years after the tragedy a public inquiry will question key figures involved however all members of the public have been barred from the hearing amid covert concerns and the decision has angered many of the survivors and the families of victims who insist on being part of the process. the community need to be safe however they need to be put at the heart the bereaved instead vives this machine should need to be put at the heart of this inquiry and it has been possible for the inquiry they've got a number of months to actually organize something which allows what they call
6:23 am
limited access limited access meaning actually different believed families and survivors would have been able to attain that in that inquiry been appropriately socially distance grieved and survivors have been the whole community we've got 3 years now of a limbo you know and we need to have a level of truth and accountability because it's having a massive impact on people's mental health. lawmakers and democrats in particular are demanding donald trump are answers questions on alleged russian bounties on u.s. soldiers in afghanistan which was there to have been paid to the taliban officials claim the mountain was outlined in a written briefing to the us president in late february but denying any knowledge of that however it's not the 1st time an american leader has been embroiled in arguments about briefings and it seems to be a familiar tactic used by the opposition. what the president has done with his
6:24 am
complicit silence is absolutely aiding our enemy president trying to get briefed in march and his response to that is nothing what his fundamental focus is is not the security of our forces but whether he looks like he wasn't paying attention just months before the presidential election trump is taking heat from all sides over unverified reports that russia offered bounties for the killing of american troops in afghanistan but that's more or less old news already the focus is no longer whether or not that is in fact true but whether or not trump knew about it and did nothing and the hubbub surrounding that question is tugging at the memories of anyone who has a political attention span longer than the election cycle the president today got 4 pinocchio's on his story and been gazi least seen another page turn in this chapter of cover up and now if you station by this administration this thing has bore holes in swiss cheese the previous accountability review board said that the secretary
6:25 am
will personally get involved she did not know that's all from obama's time in office when 4 americans were killed in libya in 2012 better known as the benghazi attack in the wake of that the republicans began a crusade 1st against obama's administration even gaining access to his daily briefings not long before midterm elections mind you and then later use the tragedy to take shots at hillary clinton who was secretary of state at the time of the attack when while she was running for president we're not trying to belittle the severity of these 2 separate issues and there's been a quiet bipartisan push both times for the truth but only to a certain extent see the trend let the listen just a geisha is begin and the countless committees be forn because politics this is really a political exercise in a cynical attempt to far up the g.o.p. base before the midterm elections this november this committee is nothing more than a political hit job on hillary clinton a full investigation. of those in that house the senate we also want to look into
6:26 am
this issue of whether the president was briefed on this how can you run an administration where something this important is not brought to your level something is very wrong here but this must have an answer and the republicans are just as guilty of doing the exact same thing long live party loyalty there's so much about this. incident called benghazi that we don't know the refusal of the white house to prioritize anything related to the investigation the white house did more to obscure what happened the most we were loads of to believe that i have seen and have heard shows no corroboration reported on on verified and inconclusive intelligence i can't imagine briefing the press the night states about this allegation given the nature of the intelligence bipartisanship isn't reserved for capitol hill the mainstream media play the same
6:27 am
cards with trump that their rivals did with obama. the. trumps reelection is on the line so it's likely this story will be played out to the very end just like any other piece of negative press his opponents can get their hands on something that should have been disregarded and would have been disregarded had it not been a course passed along to adam schiff or to the new york times in order to hurt a political purpose as is just another attempt to revitalize the already dead and bleeding corpse of the trump russia collusion hoax narrative we have to start wondering now why we seem to have these rogue elements or this other or other kind of power government that has no shape no face no name it's. to be calling the shots
6:28 am
within certain factions of the us cia for political purposes for political underpinnings because this is the same branch this piece of intelligence regarding an a stand in the taliban he's a legit russian bounties year was shown to be uncorroborated and unsubstantiated. by starting us here on r.t. international we're back with all the latest headlines in just over 30 minutes theda. is you'll be a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation in the community. are you going the right way or are you being
