welcome to the program. paris has been engulfed in when you don't arrest over a controversial security bill police used water cannon and tear gas as the situation spiraled out of control there's been huge anger of the plans to protect police officers by handing them extra powers and. with more from the french shot it would skew. the results huge tensions here in paris in the last hour where we have seen a number of what i would describe this action grabs by the police it's obviously much more organized not you'll have members over the security forces going to the friday wrapping you know that they think of causing trouble perhaps likely to cause trouble you saw one man dragged from the car by the offices that followed tensions were such a moving story that this is the 1st that she is ready. going to impact the world
9:02 pm
court at 2 gasping news directing from error so sprains x. the protests we saw many people trying to get away from that and suffering the impacts of sea gas. well i just want to give you a sense of how big this crowd is because it's are you me as we're getting closer to the end of this protest the march to the public we understand really how many people have come out there are thousands and thousands at trying to get a camera to pay to look up the street which is completely packed and then if it's
9:03 pm
possible to turn the camera around you'll see how many people are still coming and then the lights over the police behind. the police seem to be used to huge a restraint here we haven't seen the clouds of tear gas that we've seen in previous protests but we did see the water cannon used to try and crew people down there were other demonstrations across the country as well all against the global security lord our people are unhappy with article 24 specifically this would have criminalized individuals who published images of the police if there was intent to hold that thought provoked she knew john feehery here in front as a result parliamentarians are going to rewrite just pacific to us at but people are angry again. today not just about that not just about the global security law but
9:04 pm
also a new law that was approved by the french captain it in the week that is the law that was originally named the separatism nor it's now the promoting republican values lou and this also contains an article which is very very similar to that controversial article $24.00 that is that it would become a criminal act to post images of somebody online if they could be identified armed if there was intent to home so take out the word police and it's essentially the same act now the police are also unhappy they food that that controversial article 20 food beer measure to protect them from the types of threats that they face on a daily basis as a result of that their police union wanted actually for this measure to be strengthened even further so they're unhappy that this is being rewritten and the
9:05 pm
police are also unhappy about some of the comments made by president mccone in the last week he said in an interview that the police are controlling more people who are known white than white and the police of essentially taken not as to say that the president is suggested that they're racist problem it unsecured our police the problem is that the police lock resources and personnel they lock many things and when they are asked for help no one is listening on the other side with and criticize the police which i think is like a step in the south expect a new mccrone ends up telling the media the police of racist i can guarantee my colleagues norm's racists to recall it today if they demonstrate and if they continue to demonstrate a few it is to show you that they are not racist of bullets and no. control but if you. say this is it. ok for you.
9:06 pm
thank you because. it was. released last week was pretty sad. i'm going to be. renewed fighting has been reported in the disputed no go to cut about creation of one month into a cease fire all media has accusers about john of attacking its military positions are on course that has the latest details. russian peacekeepers who are there they have already confirmed that the cease fire has indeed been broken on friday and at the moment russian peak peacekeepers are demanding that the sides stick to the truce so that no more people would die but speaking of this latest incident according to our media and. defense ministry well they claim they are but john carried out attacks on villages near god drouet which is in the car bomb but not
9:07 pm
controlled by there by john and apparently 3 people were wounded on december 11th at 8 40 pm the enemy attempted to attack our southern military positions as a result 3 reservists received gunshot wounds varying degrees of severity their lives are not in danger. by john of all they have also issued a statement and they claim that their forces are indeed observing the cease fire which was brokered just last month and indeed it was armenia who made some provocative actions and somehow violated the truce some words about my car back it is of course internationally recognized as by john but it is mainly by ethnic armenians and it's been a source of major tensions in the last few decades and the latest of course a very bloody flare up happened in september and last for over
9:08 pm
a month thousands of soldiers died in those are by john in armenia nagorno-karabakh as well and that violence find the ended around a member of it's and when the sides agree to a ceasefire which was brokered by a russian i sort of. the decision has been taken as a result of analysis of the military situation and brains to lease and most of people who've been most familiar with the military situation. for my part i mean i'd seen it done very. we've seen you do you do certainly years on conflict between the media and. the occupation. i mean you know that by john they saw the results of this brief but very bloody conflict and the ensuing cease fire as somewhat of someone is actually victory and they even held the victory day parade in bulk and speaking of that that's where they parade the president off. the
9:09 pm
guard he also arrives and when he came over during the parade the entire city of baquba was dressed and. and there by john flags now speaking about the other side of this cease fire. at the moment many ethnic armenian refugees are returning to the board. which is on their control they're trying to rebuild their lives and meanwhile people in the neighboring armenia are very unhappy many feel very betrayed they're stepping onto the streets and the whole country is now engulfed in protests and their demand is for the prime minister nicole to resign as soon as possible and many are blaming him for what had happened now we'll see what happens next you know a cease fire in that region is very shaky at this one has been sacked for over a month already hopefully it will stick lower and middle east specialist who believe small scale will have to work hard to save the cease fire. as abrasion has
9:10 pm
an edge. as it were a journey back needed by turkey and israel and i think as it wage and wants to do it of its dominant position now and wants to reclaim. that care about and. as it were a journey for them get their say the your hat rochelle which he's there and he's trying to control the russians in this think a lot of money actually now in armenia and the. iranian population back in kerala because they want to do one they want to keep. at the same live look and they want to have the advantage and the advantage and the edge of it was not one that we need the other one the same iran with. the. me because usually both parties see the other party. in order to
9:11 pm
have reason to launch in fact at this moment we don't know what the what the truth is but there are what we not this is a very for peace and it has to be. controlled by the russian. texas republicans are calling for action after the legal challenge for the presidential election was struck down by the supreme court the local bar to sherman a state should now think about cutting loose from washington the supreme court and tossing the texas lawsuit has decreed that a state can take unconstitutional actions and violate its own election law perhaps law abiding states should ban together and form a union of states that will abide by the constitution and west isn't alone with that view earlier in the week a republican texas state more major said he wants to plan a referendum on whether there's a scene from the united states he said the federal government was out of control and didn't represent the values of texans. this is
9:12 pm
a referendum for the people of texas to be able to make their voices heard people are all fired up right now and should learn that they have been left out for many many years tags it now without fail like since we had no country fox is now promoting tex it secession look for trying to become this pathetic new country's 1st president so long texas it was nice knowing you i love this idea old true trumpeters should move to texas is good a wall and everything then he can be president of your country since he won't be here you can't even vote again like you want please all of you go but there will come a day to try to ignore what he is a story is the growing political rift in the united states texas talk about this program one time though it's sort of in the texas soul to see itself as going into you know the lone star state it's a it's a state slogan to threaten to leave and god bless them and if they did good luck to
9:13 pm
them and god bless them as well but i'm not sure that we see that happening it does seem to be a sort of emotional response at this point however it does express how alienated we're feeling right now how washington is too big how a couple major cities way too much political control and the supreme court refused to your most people believe because they're frightened because the media declared the winner of this election not the electoral process but the media and the people who troll the media the corporate interests that controlled media announced the president and the supreme court many people believe simply said that they don't want to step in on this. u.s. food and drug agency has approved the prize a covert vaccine for emergency use this comes amid reports the white house chief of staff pressured the watchdogs commissioner into giving the green light to the job on the threat of losing his job but one old trump was quick to praise the approval and f.d.a. representative voiced concern. today our nation has achieved a medical miracle we have delivered
9:14 pm
a safe and effective vaccine in just 9 months this is one of the greatest scientific accomplishments in history it will save millions of lives and soon end the pandemic once and for all the agency is very concerned about vaccine hesitancy the f.d.a. earlier revealed 6 volunteers died during the trials of the pfizer job which involved 44000 people over the regulators said 4 of the diseased had been given a placebo while the remaining 2 deaths were within statistical expectations when one in the u.k. authorities are advising people with severe allergies not to take a new vaccine. now in the u.s. more lives have now been lost the covert the number killed fighting in world war 2 close to 300000 people have succumbed to the virus and coming president joe biden is pledging to bring into law a nationwide wearing rule once he takes office and i'm absolutely convinced that in 100 days we can change the course of the disease and change life in america for the
9:15 pm
better i'm going to ask for a mask in place everyone for the 1st 100 days of my administration to where madness it will start with my signing in order on day one to require mass where i cannot do the law like try to do a building interstate travel on planes trains and busses. and most states in the united in the u.s. have already made more scoring compulsory in public places compliance there has been patchy with several police departments saying they call in for the rule emergency care specialist steven waldman says there's a deep cultural mistrust of restrictions across the united states. people are kind of confused about what exactly do you do. to protect themselves you know also we i think many americans don't like to be told what to do so they've restrictions and they continue to violate the restrictions and by their doctor by some of the states or stretch you know beyond capacity following every holiday there's a there's
9:16 pm
a small surgeon and now it's a pretty big surge after thanksgiving there's still a significant portion of our population that doesn't get what's happening and while the u.s. u.k. and kind of already approved code vaccines the e.u. is exercising caution saying safety must come 1st her over the rockies seeking ways to encourage people to take over jobs once approved brussels has suggested vaccination certificates and for e.u. wide mutual recognition of corona virus test result it's part of efforts to ease restrictions and allow more travel right now the european union is working full speed to review the safety of vaccines and make them available. to do we have the opportunity to reach an agreement on how to proceed with corby's 19 vaccines and establish a common system for the validity of tests of critics are claiming vaccinations are difficult to could impact civil liberties i call and you don't know neil put the
9:17 pm
issue up for debate. i'm nervous about the idea of having these travel as certificates or the certificates that say you've had the coronavirus vaccine because what that means is that actually will then end up being a coronavirus passport so i think the thing is to encourage rather to rather than to make sure people are automatically told they have to have it it should not be compulsory go green with the gentleman there no problem but for air travel. it should be made compulsory by the airlines to make sure that the people on the plane are sent to blah blah about 3 don't accept or that's exactly what the problems we've got with this. group who are going to be taking its toll and that's where i think there will be more people who are going to pick who profession coming out to look you reach certain they're very concerned with how rich this client she has come out there who. are right now this is nothing against having votes.
9:18 pm
but this it's a routine or. not that sir do your duty as a police. car is your concern the one thing i would say to the european union is if you stop having so much bureaucracy and let those countries decide for themselves they would have vaccines by now i think that's an incredibly dangerous thing to say this is been in the making for 20 years we've had a rolling review is this is going on this vaccine is safe the m h r 8 would not license this vaccine if they did not believe it was safe and the problem is when you start to spread those sorts of rumors that's why people won't be vaccinated and the more you tell them you have to have a vaccine and people believe that there is some sort of miletus thing going on then people will not take up that fascination and therefore we undo all the good work that's been done to date certain conspiracy theories and go our bordering on factual know looking as if they're going to be happening and this is just going to fuel those more extreme conspiracy theories that one of bill gates trying to use
9:19 pm
vaccines that plant microchips in people this is simply going to reinforce their fears isn't it yes i somehow i believe absolutely. i'm sorry. you shouldn't believe these people of course who claims crazy ideas all the time in the coming months and years we will know about the long term solidity of the vaccine and after certification and maybe we'll need to do it again and maybe there will be a 2nd version and all and that will improve the years but we need to save the economy now surging coburg infections have seen the plug pulled in many of germany's most famous christmas market cases in the country have been steadily climbing since october or 30 say the festive attractions at the heart of many cities are too much of a risk because all of a has more. usually where i'm talking to you from would be the scene of one of the
9:20 pm
busiest christmas markets it's not to be this year there's no room at the inn for the christmas market due to the global pandemic but one thing that's a memory of christmas past is the smells of mold wine the still on sale destructions on selling out cold will harm my business we will leave the loss of income as things stand we can stay here until the 20th of december that maybe we'll be allowed to work and up again off the dime is over the sale of a cup of festive cheer is causing it to buy the country though while bars and restaurants of being forced to close on the germany's lockdown lights mulled wine in the stalls have become a place to congregate prompting some politicians to warn that they may be leading to the spread of covert 19 across the country build one stands subvert our contact restrictions i don't understand why the city of cologne allows this in the end this will lead to new infections and that's it will be time for that later when we are
9:21 pm
vaccinated the owners of these stalls disagree though. i think we should do everything we can to stop the spread of this virus when mosques and observe the timi to distance religion and disinfect the hands even germany's most famous christmas market in nuremberg is closed they've had to make changes to traditions going back to the 16th century with this year's chris kindle christ child opening the advent season from a local t.v. studio. this year everything is different the coronavirus crisis is preventing us from doing many things in the run up to christmas such as advent celebrations and gathering at the christmas market would have by attending bunch total lockdown restrictions that were brought in back in november haven't had the desired effect in getting the number of cases of covert 90 down that means that the federal. government here in berlin and the leaders of germany 16 states are going to have to
9:22 pm
thrash out a new set of restrictions even if that means putting christmas spirit on hold it's fought 3 week this needs met as hard as it is and i know how much care has gone into setting up the mood wine and waffles tat it's not compatible with would be a greet only take food away and it is home and really story from the bottom of my heart i think the price is 590 deaths a day that is not acceptable but is this obviously the public don't want to cancel christmas but i spoke to people here and asked them what they thought about these mulled wine stalls being no it's not very christmassy like to try to find a balance between not being scarce and. trying to have a good time maybe i think it is not good they do open at the same time is a little bit sad because it's christmas and they're very won't be together enjoy
9:23 pm
this time. it is a bit sad that there's not so much to do at this time but i think we need to be cautious and i suppose those few places with mulled wine should remain open it's clear from onboard merkel's address to the bundestag that the chancellor wants to see things go further sacrificing christmas spirit in the name of safety peter all over r.t. . the english city of birmingham has been branded wolk role because the names given to 6 new street include diversity grove equality road and humanities close the names were suggested by a member of the public as part of a contest with the winner chosen by a pile of judges ridicule and accusations of virtue signalling most soon followed. these new street names are completely vacuous was 0 connection to the people history or culture of birmingham another labor initiative the politicize ation of our landscape continues the utter meaningless banality of these new names
9:24 pm
speaks volumes about the new hollow normal anyway about cross close compliance present work wash way i'm calling it now someone's going to put a d at the end of humanity close radio host and columnist john gone believes it would have been better to choose the names reflecting the threat is it even. this is political correctness gone mad this is snowflakes having a field day how ridiculous to name the streets in these close's in this way it's virtue signaling i'm sure it's not in shoes with most birmingham people it doesn't reflect what birmingham is well birmingham's becoming birmingham is a mordent for sting city but we could talk about the achievements of birmingham and birmingham people there's loads of people are not necessarily people but organization bands groups great achievements they couldn't name this after but no
