11:07 pm
and one of the reasons that religious sites are getting the priority when it comes to security is because there was a release earlier this week from a thought but which is a press agency linked to the terror network al qaeda which suggested that christian symbols should be attacked people here disbelief shock once again that this could hit at the heart of the city but there is also anger to. the french demand justice who want these people to be deported to their country ok in security there is no safety 3 people are dead what will america do build another mosque people have been coming to the church in lame true peace since that attack took place but the reality is that this is a community that is still in complete shock over what's happened we spoke with middle east expert sharma who says that freedom of expression is the rock on which ever widening divisions are being fought. tensions are mounting every day between
11:08 pm
the slimy word and france in france we have the french government saying that we have the freedom of speech we have the freedom to do anything about anyone we want and on the other side we have the slimy word which says ok you can have the freedom of speech but you and you shouldn't be insulting our prophet so this 2 points of view are opposing each other and this 2 communities don't understand each other if we want to stop the radical islam here in france we should prove and we should show them that france is a neutral country that what we call here. that no religion has the right to interfere with the government or the state of affairs in france muslims across the world have protested against president across crackdown on hardline islamic tensions have also been heightened by the french satirical magazine charlie hebdo

a pro trump crowd trying to block them law enforcement eventually got some of them on the sidewalk. and this comes with less than 48 hours until the polls will open in the u.s. for the most pivotal election in recent history it may be a nation divided but a majority do agree on something according to recent surveys that poor leadership is a roading trust in government institutions are to scale up and comments. whether it's donald trump or joe biden who's sworn in on january 21st next year the pillars of u.s. society will not stop shaking just for that covert 19 may be ravaging the united states but americans think that their government and its institutions could be just as dangerous to the country in an earlier poll when asked to name the greatest disappointments the u.s. congress and the us president came up top that might be because on capitol hill they seem to spend more time in name calling than actually getting things done is
11:15 pm
following the radical left agenda no religion no anything hurt the bible heard god. prisoners who have in modern history joe biden is the puppet of left wing extremists trying to erase our borders eliminate our police we have racists and they've existed then tried to get elected president the 1st one that has this fits into a greater pattern of distrust and the failure of essential institutions in us society whether they favor conservative or liberal policies when it comes to health care americans agree that the centers for disease control and other government institutions designed to protect public health have completely failed the country in the face of coded 19 centers for disease control and r.u. . department of homeland security this year john these 2 track global pandemic you know what they do they fail you from their chaotic early
11:16 pm
response to underestimating the danger to the lack of testing kits and accusations of becoming a political tool the centers for disease control are being hit from all sides other essential institutions of us society are affected by a deep crisis for example law enforcement. are our. recent protests sparked by the killing of. words floyd as well as a long history of police brutality have many americans asking whether or not they're really safe and protected public trust in the police as an institution has been in decline intelligence agencies are yet another example they are expected to gather information and then provide it to the military but lately they seem to have been getting caught up in political squabbles if the 1st people you met from so-called american intelligence were dirty cops who have now proven to be sleaze
11:17 pm
bags at the highest level you could perhaps understand my reluctance to embrace the intelligence agencies seem to be competing with each other rather than being focused on getting the job done many wonder if they are up to the task of taking on china which has now been labeled the new big threat the us government and intelligence community will fail to achieve the outcomes required to enable continued u.s. competition with china on the global stage for decades to come and to protect the us health and security none of this started with donald trump it's been a long pattern of dk and demoralization americans just don't seem to have faith in their leaders and their government like they once did it looks like a lot of key institutions in the united states need a reboot and fast or else who knows what kind of disaster could await america next kaleb mopp an artsy new york titian's trying to appeal to young voters well it's often a recipe for cringe and in the mix of the 2020 trail we have seen everything from

of people have rallied in central la. and in against a 2nd lockdown it is due to come into force on thursday as the u.k. follows other nations in europe in an attempt to tackle a big rise in covert 1000 cases. people held up banners accusing the authorities of tyranny for restricting the movement of people the protest happened as the british prime minister made the announcement. we've got to be humble in the face of nature and in this country alas as across much of europe the virus is spreading even faster than the reasonable worst case scenario of our scientific advisors and so now is the time to take action because there is no alternative from thursday until the storm to december you must stay at home you may only leave home for specific reasons we're not going back to
11:21 pm
the full scale of march and april the measures that i've outlined a less pretty but even less restrictive but i'm afraid from thursday the basic message is the same stay at home protect the n.h.s. and save lives the new rules take effect on that november 5th and will last until the 2nd of december all non-essential shops will close along with entertainment venues restaurants and pubs people will be required to work from home where possible however schools colleges and universities will be allowed to stay open after 4 weeks of lockdown the plan is to return england to a system of local targeted restriction as and where the need arises but if corona virus infection rates don't fall quickly enough government officials have suggested the restrictions may last longer. well since the start of the pandemic the u.k. has been hit with more than a 1000000 cope with 1000 cases and over 46000 deaths the highest number in europe
11:22 pm
in the past week the u.k.'s daily infection rate has exceeded $20000.00 political commentator anthony webber believes though the proposed cure may well be worse than the disease. even before this lockdown really explains how up out of the situation was home how much more than. we can allow certainly we're going to be accommodated more because we government can somehow afford to own the moment so who which of the taxpayer will have to pay for the young people of this country without a penny for the future. what will they do you are going to shoot shoot water is it going to be crispy because there are ostrich on tree where there's trouble it's full. the whole foods disasters we're all in government should be is the best certainly in the whole of the beautiful to be true even in any people have

to pray for their 1st person in search of our expense. russian covered 1000 vaccines put in it v. has been distributed to the 1st group of volunteers older than 60 the head of the trial said and none of the participants showed any significant side effects after getting the initial dose russia has also become one of the 1st countries to apply to the world health organization for an emergency license for the vaccine sputnik v was developed by the institute in moscow advanced stage 3 trials with 50 $5000.00 volunteers are still underway if russia gets w.h.o. approval it will speed up the availability of the job globally and despite skepticism about the vaccine in the west including claims that corners were cut too rushed into production moscow says it has confidence in the drug. it comes as russia sees
11:24 pm
a spike in covert $1000.00 infections with more than 800000 new cases registered in the past 24 hours and the total number of cases exceeding $1600000.00 country remains among the worst hit in the world together with the us india and brazil and with coded tightening its grip both in russia and worldwide r t has heard from a leading evolutionary biologist who has conducted extensive studies into the virus he explains how it mutates and how outbreaks can be dealt with you can catch the full interview on our website here is a quick preview. i think it's a blessing that coronaviruses evolve more slowly than other r.n.a. viruses but still it's a very quick process the virus mutates every 2 weeks but in one specific lineage what is a specific leni age well thus infects mush mush infects pets or pets infects tanya
11:25 pm
in such a lineage the virus mutates once but at the same time a similar process is taking place across the globe since different viruses acquire different mutations in total we see tens of thousands of mutations we can already see approximately 20000 mutations. that is 20000 versions of the same corona virus that is believed to have her region aided and will one where. we now see that the common ancestor was around in december or january the genomes of all the coronaviruses we are sequencing and starting right now show that they are all descended from one common ancestor which existed back then so it seems to me very unlikely that the virus infected a person before that time. so. there is a widespread belief that the virus does not exist in order to kill the owner but in order to somehow perfectly adapt to it and live quietly inside them.
11:26 pm
actually this is not what the virus cares about most we know a huge number of examples one of our success didn't put play shin's for many many is many centuries and did not weaken smallpox for example measles which is fatal in a large proportion of cases if there is no treatment but generally it often happens that the mortality rate does not change at all. so there is no guarantee that covert 19 will somehow become less dangerous. when you are in the near future there are no guarantees of that. our that does it for me and for the weekly in fact to my colleague the incomparable in the carom will be here in about 30 minutes time with a full and fresh look at your news this is our teacher national glad to have you with us.
