the hook for the rest of the. thing. until this incident is not. a hook. or. i remember back originally when black lives matter 1st started with trayvon martin and then you know you had mike brown eric garner and you had case after case of these shootings of young black men and women across the country were officers were never really held accountable for that and you had protests and read these kind of false you know. dog and pony show style fixes of the institutional racism without really addressing it without really. you know taking it to task of really changing
8:03 am
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 but also this week president trump has done more for black people than all my stool he's proud to say. but 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 to go when i'm reelected the best is yet to come. from speech that came is furious black lives massive protest is once again poured into the streets of can i hear it also turned out in washington d.c. where a top level guest on the final day of the u.s.

republican national convention reported physical harassment on their way and kind of looks now at how can osha has become a crucial pole in the u.s. election campaign. stars bernie guns firing people looting images that have become all too familiar in the united states as of late and archaean action 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 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 all those cities it isn't happening by chance it's a direct result of refusing to allow law enforcement to protect our communities
8:05 am
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 over. run by violent mobs 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 shocked are we that tucker carlson is praising
8:06 am
a murderer as some kind of vigilante hero democrats are taking those blame 'd 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 continue to 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 simple fact that a black life matters is still met with derision from the nation's highest office as
8:07 am
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 but 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 turbulent times ahead but i think there's a political gain going on on the side and both sides you've got the democratic side
8:08 am
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 it's actually 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 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. now this week catch the mice the media and the fish or spread the kremlin of poising a prominent opposition activist alexina valmy was transferred from russia to
8:09 am
a bird in hospital after falling suddenly you know on a flight in siberia. takes a look now at the blame game that's been unfolding. 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 would say varney fell ill on a flight to moscow forcing the paid to make a must learn to tolerate 20 local hospital numerous toxicology tests were run all the results came back negative the tests on the well known for a wide spectrum of synthetic substances including inhibitors were negative also on admission to the hospital there was no clinical picture specific to the colon mysteries inhibitor group fast forward a few days new colleagues still in interest coma had been airlifted to a specialist chemical bolena 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
8:10 am
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 happened 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 there are no if they tried to do were to reason made did with discrete piles and offer no cooperation whatsoever with the russian word for it is so the russians could make an independent
8:11 am
assessment as what the german scientists of found there 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. now 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 this actions 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 the baltic sea nordstrom to should not go into operation for i'm going to pull those who has been fighting to keep north stream to alive despite the best efforts
8:12 am
of such nation as this is neither the time nor the place to be talking gas. i think that we should be couple these issues and in our opinion north trying to should be completed 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 this same argue man same goes year apart from the fact that 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 strain the situation i would say is that it's more different from at 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
8:13 am
gas prices is that alongside all the international figures she's called for moscow to conduct a full and transparent invest. gay shit which the president has already said will happen but only when it becomes clear what exactly needs to be investigated if the divergence is identified it was 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 the on this condition despite a preliminary investigation that was initiated zoe is always the 20th no evidence of an intentional criminal act against me has been established and no evidence that would allow us to classify this incident under criminal law has been found so far well the world awaits further findings of the praises heat of those doctors and let . the medical professionals who initially treat me are getting quite the same
8:14 am
respects. 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 were treated and obviously those threats were not his fault one would think that until the final result in the bar actually turns off it like it's the only thing one could do is wish. coverage but it seems that here and inconclusive medical diagnosis has already been spun into a pre-determined political one. now it has been years since an american woman allegedly killed teenager harry done in a car accident in england and then fled the country however britain's attorney general has now she jested that the diplomats wife could actually face a trial harry died when his motorbike was hit by a car reportedly being driven on the wrong side of the road allegedly behind the
8:15 am
wheel with ansar coonass after being charged with causing death by dangerous driving she then fled the u.k. claimed diplomatic immunity how his parents though say they won't give up their fight for justice and spoke with r.t. shadier at which dashed. the hardest thing for me is having no control over when you're going to cry you know the camilla big guy. or don't show emotions are easy but since i was going it can cite the most smallest thing i know i'll just start crying or car stop myself under as much film. and the frustration i feel because our current congress wrote it only feels like yesterday since that was if it carries say. the same lane. nobody. can. feel like.
8:16 am
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 dog to stand on the authorities and the system completely let her respond they down the list family lost their son and they were treated like dirt on the bottom of their shoe that legal loophole allowed secure lists to claim diplomatic immunity as the wife of a u.s. staff member but after discussions between the u.s. and u.k. the family at the base can now be prosecuted going forward thankfully with the
8:17 am
carries on and then then in the trace a few weeks back absolutely every shows us that the family that you know with the family would have to fight the way we have nobody else now can commit the crime such as well and skilless has done and walk free is a proud thing to know that i was not. it is part of the new rule in history books thankfully that cherry's some of ours legacy now but despite that there are 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 burns the desire in the pit of your stomach to complete that promise. take you tell your poorly you look at him to get injustice when he's layin there. no life left in him literally every bone in its body. every organ damage to the point we couldn't even to
8:18 am
open to a nation and someone has to be held responsible that nobody in this world should be able to take a life i will call way a year on from harry's death the family is still unable to come to terms with the. result. of our truly. special special without. the lust for loss 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 a so. before lost a primary school. over 10. and this is not true is that you can still. speak school it was beautiful. inside and out and. it could.
8:19 am
still not quite that it would hit. a man on the wall here. and you know that. and it can't hurt. watching r.t. international still ahead for you this hour twin attacks on the british government by health workers rallying for more pay but also blasting a compensation from the families of the n.h.s. employees who lost their lives fighting now you've had $91.00 explain all after the break. the world is driven by dreamers shaped by one person of those great.
8:20 am
no dares thinks. we dare to ask. 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 the spear in dramatic development the only really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk.
8:21 am
welcome back to the weekly now relatives of british health workers who lost their lives to cope with 19 have been warned that they'll lose welfare benefits too if they accept compensation from the government is being called another slap in the face for a national health service already let down by the authorities mishandling of the pandemic family take the 60000 pound lump sum it will be treated as capital in means tested benefits and that could leave them ineligible for payments such as universal credit and housing or pension benefit opposition m.p.'s say that's deeply unfair to the loved ones of those who've made what they called 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 the compensation they need. well the u.k. government does and says that such benefits have always been calculated in the same
8:22 am
way the principle is that only those who cannot meet basic needs get payment for the senior health consultant does say that such an approach hardly encourages n.h.s. workers to put their lives on the line. that's very unfortunate a long time called be a representative bodies of all the health care workers. this work 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 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 realised just because they received a 60. 60000 pounds does not go very far in our current law and therefore
8:23 am
it is a payment for somebody who has put their lives in the front line it should not there before that penalized for it you've got capital we're not only good luck to you if this comes to be what will happen is then health care workers may make a choice to say you know what i can't think about it i don't want to put myself in the front line that would be all saw a negative but. well to add insult to injury through many a very small payoff from the government sent n.h.s. workers on to the streets on wednesday month authorities announced a 3 point one percent rise pay rise for almost 900000 public sector stuff but n.h.s. workers are demanding a 15 percent hike even worse too many are not even on the list for a pay rise and that includes n.h.s. porters cleaners and nurses. government predicting that we're going to have
8:24 am
a number when you know one thing if you think that we're going to go back in the battle still get out i'm sorry but it's not really worth risking our lives to go and cheer a patient when we're actually putting ourselves at risk too many of our colleagues at it specially the black nurses. you cannot expect to send us back on the field without the texture unfortunately a lot of us will not work in that period. opposition protesters are pledging to lay flowers as well as quote creative gifts a gift side the residences of alexander lukashenko as part of a large scale march for peace and independence through the capital minsk sunday is the birth of the under fire by the russian president and demonstrators and gathering on the central independence square from there is a correspondent you cause you don. so right now we're marching with
8:25 am
a column of protesters here in central minsk in the bell russian capital. right now you can see there is several 100 people behind me several 100 people are waiting for these for this crowd just over there now you can see a lot of police vans here because they are right here just in time right on time when this meeting was shuttled to begin when this protest was shuttled to begin and let me just pull back a little bit i will show you why are you people are marching and why they are doing this because it's not just police vans but. there are police vehicles in full riot gear there are some really advanced machinery just over there check it out and so essentially you can see the police filling everything that's going on and over there this is why people are moving essentially so they're chanting go go
8:26 am
leave they're chanting shame shame but essentially what they want they want the incumbent president of the republic of belarus to step down we've seen daily action but this is a very large scale protest because it's a sunday and this has become sort of a traditional thing for them right now we don't know where the crowd is going because they don't have anything planned they were planning to meet here and started here the police didn't let them do that so right now they're just being pushed back there but move security forces are awaiting for them there they're expecting them there we will be following them throughout the day we'll be covering the protests you can see some people are very passionate about it here and i have to say a couple words about some pro-government action that the capital of better us has seen essentially that have been opposing actions between both the anti government and the pro government but sunday has. come sort of again as i've already said as
8:27 am
i've already mentioned that sunday has become a so additional time a traditional day of the week for people to gather here and now we'll just move over there see what's going on in the front of the call of. us are essentially protesters have been boxed in so to speak because there's a line of special forces literally a few meters away from me and people are yelling at them they're yelling shame shame they're saying that you swore an oath to serve and protect this country like and they're saying who are you protecting this country from now so essentially now this column is not being allowed to move any further and in the back very slowly from what i can see a very heavy police force is moving from the back sort of kind of cramping it in. so we will be following this protest throughout the day to bring you all the latest . you can start off there reporting at the center of minsk so that's how the news is looking at a review of the week let's stay with that more stories at the top here.
