racism without really addressing it without really. you know taking it to task of really changing the culture and the nature of this country that allows these things to happen it's not going to change until there is real actual honest change in this country and that doesn't come from just you know politicians getting on t.v. and promising reforms that never happened then also this week president trump claiming he's done more for black people and all of his predecessor is almost still . i say very modestly that i have done more for the african-american community than any president says abraham lincoln our 1st republican president. and i have done more in 3 years for the black community than joe biden has done in 47 years the one i'm reelected the best is yet to come. from speech coming as furious black lives matter protest as once again then
2:04 am
pulled out onto the streets of commotion and washington to top level guests on the final day of the us republican national convention reported physical harassment on the way out of them open looks now it how can those has become a crucial hold in the u.s. election chess game is. ours bernie guns firing people looting images that have become all too familiar in the united states as of late anarky inaction on the streets has got politicians pointing fingers at each other republicans are even staking their reelection efforts on a tough law and order stance saying that democratic governors have let the situation get out of hand chaos results when failed to fish rules in cities like portland minneapolis chicago and new york make a conscious decision not to support law enforcement to buy lots of bloodshed we are seeing in these and other cities it isn't happening by chance it's
2:05 am
a direct result of refusing to allow law enforcement to protect our communities leftist try to turn the meant of elephants they want to cancel them. but i'm here to tell you these heroes can't be canceled from seattle and portland to washington and new york democrat run cities across this country are being overrun by violent mom. those statements from the south dakota governor did not make it past leftist media which called for a reality check we will interject when we feel like there's something that's important and deliberate and very wrong that should be corrected just so that we feel responsible about our broadcast other news outlets got much the same for suggesting local authorities are responsible for the violence how shocked are we that 17 year olds with rifles decided they had to maintain order when no one else would this goes beyond racism tucker carlson is advocating and defending murder how
2:06 am
shocked are we that tucker carlson is praising a murderer as some kind of vigilante hero democrats are taking those blame claims and throwing them right back in the face of conservatives saying that they're the ones that ferment it they hate to begin with the question for us this concern is when are we going to make republicans do their jobs when do we continued sit idly by and watch the sede burn to the ground. our nation is hurting we need leadership that will heal our wounds not continue to pour salt on them peaceful protest against police violence should not be met with more violence and yet that's exactly what the president called for after the death of george floyd and here at home as george full oid briana taylor and a never ending list of innocent people of color continue to be murdered stating the
2:07 am
simple fact that a black life matters is still met with derision from the nation's highest office as media and politicians blame each other some us citizens are taking up arms on their own in juneau shit wisconsin a teenager said to worship the police went to a protest and opened fire on the crown 2 people were killed the local police then shined in on their own saying that the victims were to blame because they were on the streets in violation of curfew laws this is not a police action this is not the action i believe of those who set out to do protests it isn't all it is the persons who are involved after the legal time involved in illegal activity that brought violence to this community this teenager is not the only one right wing militia groups and black self-defense organizations have sprung up across the country while politicians point the finger the situation on the streets is only getting worse across the country people are bracing for
2:08 am
turbulent times ahead but i think there's a political game going on on the side and both sides you've got the democratic side trying to to blame the president for curing racial unrest and i don't know flowing through that and you've got you've got the republican side saying that especially the pin pointed the finger at democratic leaders and democratic city is that the leadership there is not take me appropriate action. you know law and order and so there needs to be a middle someplace we do need law and order we need to provide security and safety for families security for our businesses especially small but i feel bad for small but when they were sold here by the coronavirus and those are the ones already being impacted a lot on this violence in the city unfortunately the real situation but both parties are using it as a political weapon. we reported on this soon the burden of proof lies with hold on
2:09 am
who needs proof these days this week seen western media and officials breathlessly that accuse the kremlin of poisoning a prominent opposition activist alexei developing still in berlin for treatment and to the medics that still have yet to present any further analysis that he says could tell us what's behind the blame game. it's not every day that a patient receiving treatment in a siberian hospital becomes a global person of interest's and that's what happened when i say valley fell ill on a flight to moscow forcing akkad to make her must slanted to her 820 local hospital numerous toxicology tests were run all the results came back negative tests on the well known for a wide spectrum of synthetic substances including inhibitors for negative also on admission to the hospital there was no clinical picture specific to the call in a series inhibitor group fast forward a few days new colleagues still in interest coma had been airlifted to
2:10 am
a specialist chemical and then more tests were run and it could have a call for the kind that's raising him to group was found the exact substance so remains unknown and almost a week later no updates the russian doctors saved his life in those crucial early hours one to exchange data to better understand the initial findings of that other colleagues but somehow already decided who it's best to believe so don't even need to wait for the final results after all but it's all just for have put it was not in charge of ali is 20 twentieth's a good script how big was the kremlin in fact it was who to himself the question is are the germans prepared to share their findings all of the. names there will all the medical tests that they undertook on the ground the are they prepared to share them with the russian doctors if they're no if they try to do
2:11 am
work to reason made did with discrete piles and offer no cooperation whatsoever with the russian with or it is so the russians could make an independent assessment is what the german scientists a pound then it's hard to see where the russians or any are under any obligation to conduct the investigation or say look we don't know that he was poisoned. the doctors say that he wasn't so why should we just accept what the germans say when the germans refuse to provide us with any scientific basis to assess their findings either way russia has to be punished and not just with sanctions to make previous actions quote pale in comparison but also by striking as an entire a unrelated project but i'm increasingly convinced the germany should pull out of the nord stream to project russia's president putin is turning increasing into a dictator who persecutes opponents including by means of poisoning attempts the poisoning attack on the russian opposition leader must lead to targeted reaction
2:12 am
the baltic sea nordstrom to should not go into operation for i'm going to lump all those who have been fighting to keep north stream to a life despite the best efforts of such nations this is neither the time nor the place to be talking gas go with us because i think that we should do a couple of these issues and in our opinion north ring 2 should be completed that nobody builds a pipeline just to n.r. somebody a pipeline is built because it is the mom it's the 2nd part of the pipeline and that was initiated in 2000 try we saw the same argue mance and those years apart 100 fact allen chief from north america was not yet commercial. we see a kind of replay of the arguments of 2005 nevertheless it was built and now there's a new trial and training situation i would say is that
2:13 am
a bit more different from it last 2 years ago and i don't see how the old speaking notes which we have been hearing from u.s. officials over the last years are still when it into these environment of neri low gas prices is that alongside all the international figures she's called for moscow to conduct a full and transparent invest. geisha which the president has already said will happen but only when it becomes clear what exactly needs 'd to be investigated if the division is identified it is determined that it was an intentional act of poisoning then of course it would give grounds for an investigation no dealt so far there are also many other medical versions as to what could have caused of on this condition despite a preliminary investigation that was initiated zoe is or was the 20th no evidence of an intentional criminal act against the valley has been established and no evidence that would allow us to classify this incident and a criminal law has been found so far well the world awaits further findings and
2:14 am
praises heat of those doctors and let. the medical professionals who initiate me on getting quite the same level of respect. i personally my family my children have received dozens of physical threats you know i'm not hiding my personal life and of course it didn't affect anything god will judge those people who treated about owning and obviously those threats were not his fault one would think that until the final result actually turns office lives the only thing one could do is wish. is speedy recovery but it seems that here and inconclusive medical diagnosis has already been spun into a pre-determined political one. in other news the week marked 2 years since an american woman allegedly ran over to be done in england killing him then she fled the country now britain's attorney general says the diplomat's wife
2:15 am
could face a virtual trial than he died when his motorbike was hit by a car reportedly being driven on the wrong side of the road allegedly behind that will was. after being charged with causing death by dangerous driving she then fled the u.k. claiming diplomatic immunity the dunn family sort of private prosecution against britain's foreign secretary after it was revealed u.k. officials letter leave the country the victim's parents told artie's sharda edwards dashti why they won't give up. the hardest thing for me is having no control over when you're going to cry to camilla big i watch after i don't i don't show marlo she's very easy but since her is gone. the most smallest thing i know i'll just start crying or can't stop myself from the marriage feel. the frustration or feel because our crown can't control anything else i just.
2:16 am
think. the same lane. never any if it. feels like. harry spammy or fighting to bring securitas back to the u.k. to face justice 6 months after his death she was charged with death by dangerous driving but britain's extradition request was rejected by the u.s. it's been a tough tough battle for this family we've had to not just climb mountains but move mountains because having now closed the loophole the legal loophole that allowed her to escape she was the last person to escape it is absolutely clear now that the united states government does not have either a legal or moral doctors. the authorities and the system completely let her respond this family lost their son and they were treated like dirt on the bottom of their
2:17 am
shoe that legal loophole allowed secure less to claim diplomatic community as the wife of a u.s. staff member but after discussions between the u.s. and u.k. family at the base cannot be prosecuted going forward thankfully with the harries an amendment in the treaty a few weeks back absolutely area shows us that the family that know what the family would have to fight the way we have nobody else now can commit the crime such as well and has done and walk free is a proud thing to know that. is part of the new ruling history books thankfully that cherry's some of ours legacy now but despite that temper of hope it doesn't help charlotte and tim get justice for harry himself in the promise i made him when we lost him that night just as the desire in the pit of your stomach to complete that promise. take you tell your poorly you look at him to
2:18 am
get injustice when he's layin the. life left in him literally every bone in his body. every organ damage to the point we couldn't even to contain a ship and someone has to be held responsible that nobody in this world should be able to take a life. away a year on from harry's death the family are still unable to come to terms with. how to truly mean no. special special not. just for long he enjoyed life enjoyed meeting people he was larger than life as they say was he was he what. could have been more proud of so. far lost a primary school. over 10. and this is not true is that you
2:19 am
can still. be who was. inside and out and. still not quite. able to teach you. anything on the wall. and you know that. and it can't. the done family talking to us in the week folks watching today let me tell you what's ahead well among the stories as we recount the news the week freedom of speech taken a bit to blow online as facebook blocked a group from thailand criticizing the king of social media john increasingly choosing which protest movement deserves support its things which will be silenced in syria now it's international with me kevin after this break.
2:20 am
when else seemed wrong why don't we all just don't all. get to shape out to stay active. and engaged equals betrayal. when something find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race is often spearing dramatic developments only really going to exist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very
2:21 am
critical time to sit down and talk. by good morning from moscow relatives of british health workers who lost their lives to covert have been warned that they're going to lose welfare benefits if they accept compensation from the government it's been called another slap in the face that for a national health service already let down by the authorities mishandling of a pandemic seems if families take the $60000.00 pound lump sum it will be then treated this capital in means tested benefits that could leave them ineligible for payments such as buna versal credit or housing and pension benefit opposition
2:22 am
m.p.'s say that's deeply unfair than to the loved ones of those who've made what they call the ultimate sacrifice. the government was right to say we must honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice so it's shocking that families are being forced to choose between accessing social security they're entitled to all the compensation they need. the u.k. government though insists that such benefits of always been calculated the same way the principle is that only those who cannot meet basic needs get payment but a senior health consultant says such an approach hardly encourages n.h.s. workers to put their lives on the line. that's very unfortunate took a long time for the a representative bodies of all the health care workers to negotiate this with the government and subsequently find that it is going to be treated as capital is a step backwards it should just be a payment and we must remember people die as
2:23 am
a result of being in the front line saving lives and often in circumstances where they are working with inadequate p.p. so they are really truly honestly putting themselves very much in the front line in danger and their loved ones should not be also been advised just because they received a $60000.00 payment $60000.00 pounds does not go very far in our current law and therefore it is a payment for somebody who has put their lives in the front line it should not there before that penalized with it you've got capital we're not going to help you if this comes to be what will happen is then health care workers may make a choice to say you know what i'll come to think about it i don't want to put myself in the front line that would be also a negative backward step and to add insult to injury for many an inadequate payoff from the government sent n.h.s. workers onto the streets or wednesday last month authorities announced
2:24 am
a 3 point one percent pay rise for almost 900000 public sector staff but and they chose workers are demanding a 15 percent hike even worse many are even on the pay rise list at all that includes n.h.s. porters cleaners and nurses that's causing outrage among excluded workers. government that we have a natural way of knowing things if you think that we're going to go back when the ballfield about i'm sorry but it's not really in our lives to care. when we're actually in ourselves too many of back. it's basically the blackness where you are now i am you cannot send us back and. unfortunately a lot of us will be not working that period. human rights have occurred severest and social media giant facebook is blocking access to

a 1000000 strong protest groups in thailand criticize your country's king their talents been witnessing mass pro-democracy rallies with some calling for reform of the monarchy facebook says it would rather not shut down the group it is being pressured to by thai authorities and is filing a legal challenge against officials however in other countries facebook seems to have no qualms whatsoever about challenging authority a senior correspondent examines what may be behind the apparent double standards then. this is an entirely new paradigm we're witnessing the birth of a new type of censorship customized tailored censorship what you say no longer matters it no longer matters where you're from what matters is who you say it against. thailand has a very specific law it's called the less majestic and what it does is criminalize any negative speech towards the king all the queen or the heir or the 2nd there and
2:26 am
so on so the rule family cannot be criticised by anyone if you dare criticize the queen's dress for example or the king's haircut you face 15 years in jail 15 years this now apparently includes international criticism so on facebook for example which just banned approved more chrissy group of 1000000 people for hurting the king's feelings after careful review facebook has determined that we are compelled to restrict access to content which the tide. government is deemed to be illegal 23rd century you can't criticize a person because his father gave him a shiny crown and told him he was special having said that there are many many people in thailand who almost worship the rule family which is their right among their fans too in fact is the u.s.
