over the country i think that teachers are really really worried. well can you watch not international this saturday evening it's just gone 66 o'clock here in moscow now a police officer has been suspended in the u.k. after being filmed nailing on the neck of a black man he was arresting. so if you. think you got your. bronco not. according to police the man being detained was suspected of having a knife is the officer struggled on the ground a crowd of onlooking then gathered and filmed what was going on while the incident is now being investigated is recounted the rabbi over appropriate levels of faux.

i'm deeply concerned about today's incident and it is right that met police u.k. have referred the case of the independent police watchdog black londoners still face discrimination and we must work with the community to build trust in the police video footage that i have seen today in the circulating in social media is extremely disturbing some of the techniques used cause me great concern they're not taught in police training but a former head of british counter-terrorism to say that officers frequently do have to use physical force when confronted with potentially armed and violent suspects. do you think that arrest technique used by the officers say especially in light of what's happened over the last few months is in any way shape or form justified or justified is or interesting word i think what you have to do is go back to this and think this is a man that was fighting it was arrested for a fright and also for having a large knife now one of the police officers supposed to do they have to control someone and sometimes in
11:03 am
a fight situation arrest situation you do get in the wrong position it's advice that stabbings have risen hugely in london over the last few years and those stabbings are committed by young men and i'm quite often young black men and and so when young men get arrested and particularly a man is arrested with a knife then of course the officers have got their own safety and the public safety at the 1st part of their you know the person 1st rather job is to make sure that everyone is safe we haven't seen the full video what we've seen is an excerpt from a video which shows an officer trying to detain a man i think people are rushing to judgment here i mean the man was shouting for goodness sake so it clearly wasn't being strangled everyone's filming this these days of course they got mobile phones it's been it's just prevalent everywhere it's a tough job being a policeman i suppose i point to you because on one hand you've got to train trying to stay safe for yourself and for the person you're trying to apprehend on the
11:04 am
other hand is it inevitable that mistakes may happen but can you call a mistake somebody kneeling on someone's neck for 345 when it 1st not a mistake is it but no it's not true for 5 minutes if you look at the voltage i've seen it's for a matter of seconds and don't forget this officer now and i'm 40 the way your life has gone on it's been surrounded by other people who are not helping the police officers but actually trying to hinder them so what do we want to police officers do we want them to stay safe themselves they we want them to arrest suspects violent people and also we want them to do so without upsetting the people watching it's a crazy world and we're just creating a rod for. now an attempt to topple a christopher columbus statue has led to clashes in chicago after riot police there moved in to disperse crowds i think. i. think some protesters reportedly threw bottles and cans and

me much least of all that it is likely to survive long to port 82 most of them. while the united states has shattered its own daily record for new coronavirus cases that after logging more than $77000.00 in a single day figures had been declining last month but of course that is now changing and is having an impact on president trump ratings as more. if you listen to donald trump he says that america is a ok as the country gets back to life and continues opening up i want everyone to know when every citizen know that we're using the full power of the federal government to fight the china virus and to keep our people safe we got hit with this terrible plague from china and now we're getting close to fighting our way out of it we're on the way to a tremendous victory it's going to happen and it's going to happen big our country will be greater good ever before thank you no administration in history has removed

11:13 am
how he is handling the code that 19 situation disappointed in the administration's response now 64 percent of americans actually said in a recent poll they distrust donald trump when it comes to his handling of the coronavirus situation and we've even heard one republican governor speaking up pretty loudly i had watched as the president downplayed the outbreak severity and as the white house failed to use shoe public warnings. drop a 50 state strategy or dispatch medical gear or lifesaving ventilators from the national stockpile to american hospitals there's been a big failure on a governmental level. social safety supports to deal with the economically speaking of course you know i think ultimately it's best to have lockdowns which is still to social distancing we still don't even have universal health care we were steerage 11 time stimulus check but a lot of people still yet to receive. this in the context of reopening in

a lot of the key cities and states that are experiencing surges in contrast we're seeing you know with the various one of our stimulus bills they're billing out you know industries from airlines cruises also often think you are loaded military budget that's almost a trillion dollars annually and it's just very unfortunate that it just seems again to be a complete misallocation of resources and support. in the news tonight thousands of people have once again turned out to protest in russia's far east against the arrest of the governor so he was elected in 2018 he was arrested though on the 9th of july on suspicion of organizing the killing and attempted murders of business rivals around 15 years ago denies all the charges against him he's currently being held in moscow although protests against his arrest have been going on all wait with the man's any trial should be held likely. meanwhile staying

president trump wants all students back in class after the summer holidays despite covert fay is white house has blocked the center for disease control and prevention from testifying to congress on the issue and it is leading to teaches unrivaled democratic politicians to sound the alarm. when he says open he means open in for kids being able to attend each and every day at their school either science should not stand in the way of various past the country nks step people are reporting to us about the anxiety they have about their chilled the decision to whether as to whether to send their children to school for me i think one of the core principles is your parents need to have the ability to opt for the type of learning that they think's important so over here it is who are you. sure your secure kids are going through this way to take your kids. to the worst. and you posted gestures to 5th of
11:20 am
americans want children back in class this autumn president trump has made it one of his top priorities he is threatening to withhold funding from schools that refused to cooperate criticised official guidelines on getting people's back into class calling them too tough and expensive we put the issue of the debate. well it's premature not to follow science you know we've been told all along follow the silent science follow the science well the science is worldwide every other country has her kids and schools except the united states kids are spreading the disease they can safely go to school sheeple are scared i mean the virus is skyrocketing like all over the country and i think the teachers here are really really worried that they're putting themselves. in tremendous risk. children know the disease teachers maybe they are else and i think because there is not this national plan
11:21 am
it's actually a virus people lives here and rightfully so the united states is not founded on one size fits all big government telling everybody what to do he's setting those guidelines those standards if you will but he's not make them for making them federal mandates so words mean things when she says she wants a federal plan i guess she wants the federal to have a one size fits all mandate from the federal government and exercise not how we do it in the united states the virus is iraq coming out of control and people are dying so obviously the president is front and true at a very. really. got the word that like people are dying a virus here they do not know that this is the blue collar president he's put a premium on the blue collar the working class he wants all those poor kids like my special needs son to have
11:22 am
a chance to not fall farther behind he wants parents to have their kids back in school so they don't have the burden of daycare or hiring tutors to take care of them and they can go to work again the idea that this disease shut down is silly i think right now the new york city is talking about a kind of land where they are where you would have. are today. or any. of the buyers or. so or i have. to be. you know really is there and. i think. that one employment in astray was running at a 22 year high but experts are baffled as to why it's not coming back down as the country does try to reopen one theory is extra welfare payments are making people think that they're actually better off at home we spoke to
11:23 am
a motel owner who explained the dial m. . a stroke it's been pretty difficult lately because it's. at a point where we're following it very hard to get employees and the employees more like staying at home because to getting paid not to a person that just washing dishes for 2 hours a week has gone up to $750.00 a week. automatically but if you comments different ople sewing it's not worth their while working and speaking to the recruit relate to see this signing that they help people on the books but they don't want to work with those at a virtue in a crisis or in getting extra support payments but that is due to end in september in part because leaders also suspecting that people are starting to rely on it too much we're getting a lot of anecdotal feedback from small businesses even large businesses where some
11:24 am
of them are finding it hard to get people to come and take shifts because they're on these higher levels of payment but those remarks there by the prime minister haven't gone down too well on social media where he's been accused of being selective with the facts. 100 percent of the anecdotal evidence has been from a liberal politician who owns pubs and a regular survey with the same group of cranks always say the same thing workers are bad cut wages bosses a call this is not a sound basis for policy making implores flooded with job publications despite job seeker bonus the skill scott morrison and piece claims that people were too comfortable to look for work because of the job seekers increase the b.m.a. using fake news for political gain. officially nearly a 1000000 australians are out of work at the moment and that is around 7 percent of the workforce but it is thought the statistics don't reveal the full picture especially among younger and lower paid workers businessmen john nixon again
11:25 am
believes there does need to be a change from support to getting people back into the workplace we rely on this. scale of work were it might be somebody coming and washing dishes or. waiting waiting on tables and you know that it's our time you know. it's. it's a low income it's quite a bit since the government's paying too much money. to the people who are. without work all supposed to be without work there has been no back up support where the government has given grants to small business but the grants don't really hold when we we need people to work to grow business and open the economy up so we can't open economy are there and there's no point really. i mean this hour the fast food chain burger king is feeling the heat from farmers
11:26 am
11:27 am
it's not the cal farts nearly all enteric me thing from cattle is from belching suggesting otherwise chances serious climates are taken to a joke reducing me thing is a huge opportunity that should be a goal but we shouldn't trivialize it for trendy marketing. when we spoke to the farmers about this story they did say it's a noble effort if not a little misguided. if there's an attempt at a genuine attempt to reduce the methane emissions from cows this is a good thing big brothers need to demonstrate that they are addressing the environmental concerns principle amongst which is climate change but rather than simple blanket solutions like just switch from livestock products and eating meat to plant based
11:28 am
diets we need to think more carefully and we need to be able to differentiate between the other ones which are part of the solution and those which are part of the problem they need. it does a lot more work than have a conversation with the people who are leading the trail on the transition towards more 'd sustainable food systems see what more they can do their research is is a good idea you know the fact that they're trying to reduce methane and everything is very admirable but not a marketing messaging basically in our in your head or culture just made us look like a bunch of you know rednecks and hicks that are destroying and putting the planet where the lemon grass come from the research right now is coming our next sorry brand of the ship tons upon tons of london for asked city carol because it seemed by power kind of the contradictory to the idea of reducing our environmental footprint you think of the plastic you think of other ways the recycling there are
11:29 am
much broader and initiatives that they could have focused their average plan. just coming up to half past 6 in the evening here in moscow you watch not international good to have you company we'll have more stories feet in just a bit. and . it's politically impossible in the united states to advise eating was there anything there's an industry in running that makes a lot of money. i'm going to say over and over again we know what it. means not seeing much. for one thing and eating less is very very bad for business it doesn't make anybody rich if people eat less.
11:30 am
now after time here we're going underground 75 years to the day joseph stalin winston churchill clement attlee and airy truman met in pottstown germany to establish a new post world war 2 world coming up on the show the longest war after $945.00 could the stalling of interrupt talks of a prisoner transpose threaten a resurgence of the us his longest war which followed u.s. u.k. support for his limits they are fighting we ask we tell about if they're prioritizing prisoners of the peace and if the 2020 u.s. presidential election.
