8:07 pm
a tape revealing that julian assange tried to limit the release of information damaging to the u.s. back in 2011 on the recording a song allegedly speaks to cliff johnson an attorney at the u.s. state department the wiki leaks founder warns johnson that an archive of 250000 department cables containing classified information had been stolen and was being spread around the internet. who would be releasing the. wiki leaks. this is. going to speak. to the material that wiki leaks. putting. out here.
8:08 pm
that's crazy. wiki leaks has long been accused of carelessness in the way it handled the leaked documents as it was claimed that they could endanger u.s. officials however the recording of a songe speaking to the state department seems to demonstrate the opposite on it and also suggested the u.s. government covertly remove the files from the internment internet and offered to help track them down but the unredacted information was published not long after a year later and took refuge in the ecuadorian embassy in london fearing extradition to the u.s. he was under active investigation by washington at the time for his role in publishing documents on possible u.s. war crimes in iraq and afghanistan however he was only charged with espionage in 2019 a month after british police dragged him from the embassy 7 years after he was granted asylum there has been in an british prison cell ever since while
8:09 pm
a london court continues extradition. to stick part was was careless or just simply not concerned i mean told the this person that he he had spent 24 hours calling very various u.s. government offices and no one no one would talk to him no no no one would call him back the tape shows quite clearly that assad is concerned about the lease on redacted. so he's quite conscious of how the information could be misused and therefore he wants to learn the relevant parties i'm sure that washington will argue that it still is wiki leaks fault but i think anybody who says this tape will show that wiki leaks is quite conscientious and trying to prevent any individual from suffering any kind of retribution as a consequence of the release of these files are the democrats have been extremely hostile to the wiki leaks much more hostile than republicans. so therefore it would
8:10 pm
be a good way forward for trump to stick it to his enemies. a health care worker in alaska has reportedly been hospitalized after receiving the coded vaccine developed by pfizer and biotech it is said to be a serious allergic reaction however the person is in stable condition we reached out to pfizer for comment and they did get back to us with more on that here's our tease killam up and. at this point we have reports from both the new york times and the washington post indicating that a health care worker in alaska has had a severe reaction to the vaccine from fires or the vaccine from pfizer which is intended to defeat the covert $1000.00 pandemic has apparently given this worker a severe allergic reaction and the reports seem to indicate that the person did not have a history of severe allergic reactions now this comes on the heels of reports about 2 health care workers in the united kingdom who both had severe reactions to the
8:11 pm
vaccine as well however these 2 people in the united kingdom they were people that actually carried around they actually carried around auto injectors for adrenaline they had a history of very severe allergies they also had a very very severe reaction to the pfizer vaccine and that caused the united kingdom to actually issued this warning regarding pfizer's vaccine take a listen and the person with a history of a significant allergic reaction to a vaccine midst and should not receive the funds of be seen but this point fire has said that those with a history of severe adverse allergic reactions to vaccines were actually excluded from the late stage trials of the vaccine on which the panel of the u.s. food and drug administration f.d.a. approved the vaccine and the f.d.a. the united states has gone ahead and approved pfizer is vaccine but made clear that
8:12 pm
it is only available to those who are 16 years of age or older and who don't not be given to people with a history of severe allergic reactions anyone with a known history of subvert severe allergic reactions shouldn't be taking the vaccine and at this point we have got some very prominent officials praising this new jab that's available to fight against cove it take a listen they have really good news today our nation has achieved a. tical miracle we have delivered 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 independent make once and for all i am thrilled to report that the f.d.a. has authorized the pfizer vaccine now we have reached out to pfizer and they did give us a response when we inquired for details of the pfizer drug corp said quote we don't yet have all the details of the report from alaska about
8:13 pm
a potential serious allergic reaction but we are actively working with local health authorities furthermore they emphasized that reports of adverse events outside of clinical studies are very important and a component of our farm a collage of activities and we will review all of a little information on the case and all reports of adverse event ever the restaurant has been serving customers for a century among the most prominent visitors novelists earn ernest hemingway tennis player john mcenroe and almost every u.s. president since franklin roosevelt but the 21 club is not alone small businesses have been devastated since the beginning of the pandemic here is what a local restaurant manager told us. carried everyone every day and we there are some people we have a little bit of business is we do of these little bit more right we have to bring some people back to work and it's terrible to tell them they can only give them the you know hours of people working full time job. so that hurts. having told
8:14 pm
people that and i'm scared for my family i'm going to have a job you know if you will if there is nothing because we will be shutting down probably by more that's the realistic look right now. britain is struggling to cope with a growing number of asylum seekers and locals in one village are fuming at plans to accommodate them nearby sally has more. 20 twentieth's seen record numbers of people attempting to reach the united kingdom and claim asylum thousands made the journey a while not all will be granted permission to stay long term all do need somewhere to live right now but the question is well one location under consideration it's clear to me from village of boston stacy in hampshire where there are proposals to build accommodation for up to 500 young men seeking asylum with just the church a part of the village store and a population of only a 1000 people that if it is it simply won't cope in
8:15 pm
a small rule very large 500 people squat lot so i think maybe i'm not against the idea of the idea of it's good it's just the placement i think is a little off to maybe it should mean more towards a city or town. my concerns my city but if you surround the facilities in the area and the fact that it will be the other sort of a 3 or $320.00 shops or any other buildings like that it's just going to cause a danger i think with people trying to cross the territory issue here is that's a field in the middle of the country so i would know facilities and their services so whatever happens those people are going to have to walk somewhere. to get any services that. they still like. the petition by council to stop the home office from implementing the idea has been saturated but some in the local council are more welcoming of the idea i said in the falklands in 1800 they were it was devastation around people that they couldn't see any that they were trying to devastation of warfare he's right and we don't understand that relieving countries
8:16 pm
sorry it's peace and quiet you know we have no concept unless you've been there you don't understand what the people of interest what they found changes just to survive thank you this empty plot is ministry of defense land that's been floated as a location for the facility built temporary structures will include dining and sanitation facilities as well as. access to basic recreation but it's been compared to prison like conditions in someone of the possibility of overcrowding and the location of a busy country lane with no footpaths could be dangerous to. concerns have already been raised about other locations used to house asylum seekers such as the napier barracks facility in folks in kent the government to spend millions on housing asylum seekers and say visa just temporary measures while they work to find more sustainable solutions given pressure on the system during these unprecedented times we have worked tirelessly with local authorities and other partners to provide
8:17 pm
asylum seekers who would otherwise be destitute with suitable accommodation as we are required to do by law if the napier barracks experience is anything to go by there are phases of overcrowding over the cove in $1000.00 condiments that ongoing the safety of those housed in the accommodation and local residents is paramount but with the number of asylum seekers needing shelter set to rise other communities could be placed in a very similar position soon. in boston stacey. the e.u. has unveiled strict new digital market rules to challenge the dominance of global tech giants the proposed legislation would apply only to the biggest companies with tens of millions of users like google and amazon and officials behind the draft bill saying they had no choice now we have such an increase in the online traffic that we need to make rules that put order into chaos everybody is where the growth
8:18 pm
in europe. vote our responsibility is to decide and to give directions and to rooms just to protect which is important to us the new rules could strip big tech of up to 10 percent of turnover if a break in the competition principles european officials also want to be told about big merger or acquisition plans in the sector repeat violators may be banned from the e.u. market google has already criticised the proposal as selective punishment but europe is not alone in its opposition to these big companies just last week $48.00 u.s. states together with the federal trade commission filed a lawsuit against facebook and accused the company of pumping money into unfair competition we asked experts whether this latest move will keep big tech in check. the idea behind this is to not try to too narrow it into just one kind of attack but across all the tech spectrum of so-called gatekeepers the e.u.
8:19 pm
has consistently is lined amazon find google find facebook for violating their rules over and over a key problem here is the fact that these companies continue to break the law france and germany continually say facebook is violating the law google is violating the law so they assigned them record size fines these companies build this into their actual bottom line in terms of a line item in their budgets to say we're going to pay fines because we're going to break the rules the penalties are enormous we're talking about 10 percent of global turnover and then if there is a persistent noncompliance that could be increased to 5 percent of daily then over there you worldwide but over the e.u. you saying hey you know we want to be able to to give internet companies we want to give them an opportunity to compete do. google will just have to accept the
8:20 pm
new reality. to the new rules it is difficult to see face grew out of the e.u. all together i could see available the reality is that the village solution technology 72 different speeds and the new are not able to for all the evolution of technology sloan's keep for this reason that we are attempting to up the. state in the 20 years ago you cannot force tech giants are to fall on the roots we dismantled finance and 'd the sense speaking we have seen in the last couple of years so very small fine is enormously nicky's is these fines and nothing off and off to scare giants $33.00 and a half minutes that's when i'll be back with another look at news this is our t. international glad to have you with us.
