president's korea he sed this is the same fellow told you this is going to end by easter last time is the same fellow who told you that don't worry we're going to end this by the summer we're about to go into a dark winter. i think it's going to be a very skeptical american public about taking a back seat and it should be if the doctors tell us that we should take it i'll be the 1st in line to take it absolutely but if donald trump tells us i said to him that we've taken i'm not taking it it was clear from the get go that there would be a race for a vaccine what we didn't consider was how dirty it would be a simple thing a jab to save millions of lives would turn into a bit of free for all over origin and money name and profits the advantage and reelection let's just hope that efficiency and public health also get a little consideration mark almonds director of the crisis research institute in oxford gave us his take on the hunt for a vaccine he says there are huge political and business interests at stake. the

bigger problem all round is that all creepiest attempts to develop vaccines or such dangerous diseases these are only emergency measures being taken so there's obviously going to an element of greater risk anything that can and will people that everything has been done in route transparent which is probably the best policy the problem obviously it's extent that there are extra christian commercial motivations from competing produces a pack seems now that they don't necessarily want real information that could be helpful to rival we are as artists or erap seen into your production is overwhelming both you that's true this is where we do sit legitimization this issue it's a bit like space race it's 6 years ago to get the 1st 2 facts to have a huge boost in this country trends of what we are will also arsenal. france is pressuring social media giants to stamp out

extremism online the government has some interest presenting their facebook twitter and other firms to explain why thorough coldfire but if limit them is being allowed to spread on their platforms shall they depend ski reports from paris as part of a take stock in the wake of suddenly in practice beheading social media giants have come under fire since they were those who participated in the public lynching of this teacher there are videos that were posted on social networks are in a way responsible for what happened in the days leading up to the murder of the 47 year old teacher videos inciting hatred against him was shared on social media platforms suddenly patty was also targeted by activists online in a hate campaign that went viral whipping up a storm that frances anti terror prosecutor says it was based on lies.
11:08 am
it is clear that the teacher was targeted. in various ways way social media by these 2 men using a false interpretation of the facts so me and patty had filed a complaint to the police about the hate campaign but it was not enough to prevent his brutal murder the terrorists who killed him also used twitter to claim responsibility adding i'm a corporate photo patty it will main line for 2 hours now n.g.o.s have taken on that fight taking twitter to court accusing the social media giant of not doing enough to tackle hate speech online so what do people here think of social media giants doing their bit the things that are being posted at the moment inciting hatred are not normal more should be done to tackle that much more it is very easy to put all the blame on social media it is an instrument for people to use and it's up to a person to decide what is problematic or not do you should block such courses and

11:11 am
the the social media companies can can can do much besides you know try and try and money talks like keywords and berries postings that they will take but it might be too late people download them they recycle them e it's really complicated has to be done at the ground level. 19 doughty dealings and the bullies in north korea to some of the topics donald trump and joe biden clashed over in the final presidential debate but those 2 were not the only ones in the spotlight because just 90 minutes before the event a former associate of biden's son hunter spoke out artie's donald quarter takes us through the case. well one of the main stars of the debate was definitely the scandalous elephant in the room the topic of hunter biden's sketchy overseas business dealings just last week we saw a bombshell report from the new york post claiming that the e-mails found on hunter
11:12 am
biden's laptop proved that his father joe biden had been in the know about these dealing something that the former vice president has always denied and then just 90 minutes before the debate an x. business partner of hunter biden tony actually said that joe biden was lying through his teeth about this i've heard joe biden say that is never discussed business with hunter. that is false busy. i have 1st hand knowledge about this because i directly dealt with the biden family including joe biden while just basically being accused of corruption he's being accused of receiving a lot of money from a ukrainian company called but the most important part of this scandal most interesting involves a now bankrupt chinese energy company that hunter's business venture was allegedly collecting millions of dollars from every year now i also said that joe biden was specifically mentioned in these emails as the big guy who was set up to have 10
11:13 am
percent of that business venture and that's interesting but it's also very interesting that right after the publication of this article and these e-mails social media giants like facebook and twitter immediately tried to block this information a lot of conservatives have come forward to call this an instance of political bias so naturally trump really tried to bring this to drive this point home and during the debates the e-mails so horrible evils of the kind of money that you were raking in you and your family and show you a vice president when some of this was happening and i think you owe an explanation to the american people if i did my job is complete i carried out u.s. policy not one single solitary thing was out of line not a single thing or 50 former national intelligence folks who said that what this he's accusing me of is a russian plane you mean the laptop is now another russia russia russia hoax and you got exactly what does this tell you exactly what is where he's going right up
11:14 am
is russia yes i mean i wish i want to stay on the issue of radio has to be kidding here we go again with the russia this wasn't the only point of contention throughout the debate though it's been a very bitter presidential race between biden and trump and neither could help themselves for more name calling if i thought you did a good job i would have never run anyone whose response to that. should not remain as president of the united states of america they left us a mess what he's saying is a bunch of garbage this is a terrible thing it is jennifer roback i think he called me a racist even a response if he isn't a phobic come on joe you could do better you said i tape i did show the tape put it on your website put it on it on the website the fact of the matter is you're lying you're all talk and no action give me a break now as for where we are right now in the presidential elections as of the beginning of the debates already more than 46000000 americans had cast their ballots and both campaigns have already said that biden is actually has an
11:15 am
advantage right now in terms of the popular vote but last time this didn't actually win the democrats the election so we will have to see how it pans out investigative journalist rick stylings how does the final debate site away from the most crucial issues facing the u.s. but you know if we look at the debates overall i mean there were only 2 debates and there was almost nothing on foreign policy there was nothing on issues of substance the u.s. occupation of brought the out of control military budget the deficit this year is projected to be 3 trillion dollars that's 9000000000 dollars a day none of these issues are being are being addressed the infrastructure that promised he was going to build but by reducing the wars abroad those things haven't happened on the other side we've got joe biden who is a proven member of the establishment so we're in a we're in

a bad place there are no good choices from my perspective. russia like most of europe. 1000 cases the caseload recently hit a daily record and to stem the tide new restrictions have been introduced here in moscow for my own culture i have explained. russia is bracing for a 2nd coronavirus wave as fresh coleridge numbers continue breaking records across the country and in moscow while stopping short of introducing a lockdown measures the mayor's office has announced new rules and guidelines in an effort to keep people safe and keep the economy going. first of all employers are now required to send 30 percent of their force to work from home and they must report who works for mostly and who doesn't students in middle and high schools have switched to distance learning and everyone must wear masks and gloves in all public places like shops and public transport and those who don't follow the antique code measures will be fined. millions of people use the moscow

11:20 am
a number is staggering just to get your head around 1st of all if that's true how devastating is it going to be for people's livelihoods it's going to be very devastating you know i was a union lawyer for 26 years and i've seen job losses before mass job losses but nothing on the scale that is going to have to be part of the future if companies decide to dispense with human labor which is something i don't want to see of course people are going to fall into 3 real groups there's going to be a i just the same with any massive job those that get it we just need to keep out of that why and let them go forward and create a lot of the wealth and create a lot of the new jobs that are going to be out those that could get it other people that could be retrained and we need to focus the skills and the retraining on how best we can require these people to the new reality and for the final group will never get it we need to provide some sort of support and we are not good in creating out hanumant reasoning machines that are able to replace you all month
