12:02 am
doubts and also less allergic reaction that ability skill ability cost all these all the pet meter that are ideal for any vaccine to roll out. one of the sputnik speediest advantages over the competition aside from price is that it's easier to transport or to store so a simple fridge will do them $5.00 of them would then of vaccines they require deep freeze as low as minus 70 degrees celsius so cold storage which isn't widely available in much of the developing world which is most of the world the sputnik the vaccines high quality and efficacy are stimulating growing interest from more and more countries these translates into wider jorgen feel free scrooge creation to leverage and production palestine denied the vaccine by israel has become the 1st in the middle east to greenlight sputnik the main thrust of the. swiftie worse is

makes sense to make sure that you've got different jobs. next visit may be a case of one rule for some but another for those who make the rules well british prime minister boris johnson has apparently been caught exercising 11 kilometers from his residence despite his government's very clear instructions not to exercise outside their local area. reports. 19 infections up and down the country has prompted a stark warning from the health secretary matt hancock. it's an unwelcome message for many across britain but professor chris witty who's the chief medical officer advisor to the government says tougher restrictions are absolutely unavoidable the next few weeks are going to be. times of mammas into the
12:05 am
next well hospitals are being pushed to absolute breaking point last week we had the mayor of london city karnit declare a major incident which just gives you an idea of the scale that the n.h.s. is facing but also we've had major incidents also being declared in areas like sorry and sussex and those on the frontline say the situation is dire we're most grieved means that there are hospitals. this is. where all this comes as the government unveils its vaccination plan includes the opening of 7 mass vaccination centers across the country but there is a widespread perception that the government keeps over promising and under delivering it it comes as a poll finds that around 72 percent of people think that the government has not acted fast enough with 42 percent say they're absolutely too slow but there are still plenty of people out there who think they're not down shouldn't be in place at all and they clashed with police over that we can't.
12:06 am
do the vaccine does provide some light at the end of the tunnel but there are many people. pull out that have no doubt that things are going to get worse before they get better the n.h.s. is struggling now in some parts of the country there are no beds and people are being shipped around the country and in some places there's a shortage of oxygen there is no doubt about it the n.h.s. is on the brink and the big message from the secretary of state was to really implore people to follow the rules do not go out and less it's necessary the n.h.s. i think is close to breaking point i think the government has been too slow right
12:07 am
from the beginning that we too slow to law down to originally we are an island we could have closed our borders easily but we let people in from china and from northern italy and from spain leave the infection with them that would too slow to get people where moss they were too slow here originally lot down and they've been to slow down since and of course we've had the relaxation of christmas which was a very foolish thing to do in my opinion so yes i think we've had we have a prime minister who's been hesitant to lock down and he's been too slow to act and that's been the story throughout this very sorry to. let you know too just ahead of the double bind at the moment the worst point of the pandemic we heard yesterday calling the health secretary plus called up to the same time in red tape as companies try to trade with europe. because a lot of bit later. this now though here rippin leaders have publicly questioned twitter's permanent ban of president trump representatives of both the
12:08 am
german chancellor and the french president want the tech giant's move raises wider worries on freedom of speach. specked see the chancellor considers it problematic that the accounts of the us presidents have now been permanently blocked and you know banishing the person silencing them on social networks which has become a form of public space seems to me a complicated matter in the absence of specifically established criteria it was not only world politicians rights groups are also warning that the trouble could be a slippery slope and this are to taylor explains next there's apparently a growing disconnect between the values that washington preaches and current developments across the country. america the land of the free people i've met in china and russia and afghanistan and iraq and other places who yearn for freedom and who look to this building and these shores as a place of hope the american people and the greatest democracy the world has ever
12:09 am
known this temple to democracy over the policy a few decades the u.s. has been busy exporting its brand of democracy all over the walls but it looks like fine me to wiles' run dry in its own backyards and what could have been lifted from a dystopian sayf i block mayor episodes twitter facebook instagram snapshot the list goes on don't trump out of his accounts so good that his biggest step yet to limit president trying to reach put or has permanently suspended president trump's account where there has announced it is cutting off president trump's ability to post on the social media site permanently president of course used twitter extremely frequently and to extreme controversy president trump has been violating rules all over social media for a long time so the american president given amount it by tens of millions of votes has to run the country out with the american constitution in with twit says and
12:10 am
says but even that apparently is too little too late in today's america we need solutions that don't start after untold damage has been done change in these dangerous dynamics requires more than just the temperature silencing or permanent removal of bad actors from social media platforms and just like a paranoid dictator is convinced he's surrounded by enemies big taxis by doctors of free while trump loyalists annoy is leading the election fraud claims right wing talk show hosts all sense that the story blocked because apparently that clinton got michael very riled up enough to storm the capital now duct taping trump and a few of his cronies is one thing but what to do about this. 75000000 americans who've raylene like red caps now we need to on brainwash and reeducate about 71000000 voters and their children who follow trump supporters need to rejig gave themselves a lot of things but one of them is the definition of democracy now we have to
12:11 am
figure out how to reeducate all the people trump and fox news have damaged but before this great how about some good old erosion of the fast amendment take the twit to start up scene as a safe space for conservative voices while no more afterthought an influx of people angry a twit to censorship story policy pano was dropped by apple google and this is obviously a collusive action on the part of these incredibly powerful entities who are seeking to not just destroy their competition but effectively to silence people who are supporters of the president online for years i heard it invalid to object to political censorship by facebook and twitter because if you don't like it you can just create a competing social media platform parlor tried and in 24 hours google apple and amazon united to destroy it that's what monopoly power means it's not just the
12:12 am
internet that's become a no go zone so these new enemies of the state big time political donors from coal and oil companies to big banks have turned off the money tap to lawmakers who backed trump in questioning the election results in fewer trump paid well good luck finding a job or any of trump's fellow fabulous suburban forbes will assume that everything your company your firm talks about is a lie i mean what's next informing on people oh wait. let's name and shame them off to some amazing work by james. railton friends here is his face and i guess his mom's pay attention to the shirts and hats and glasses well. they have a star direct market and in maryland you've got an employee to investigate well or to americans by the swan so social media giants don't give users the same
12:13 am
protections that their low themselves what we're seeing right now also is truly unprecedented in terms of tech companies deciding what companies can exist and deciding that if you don't behave the way we want you to get all the way we want you to we'll simply shut you down and it's a pretty shocking thing to have happening right now in the technology space it is and i think there's a difference here i want to play devil's advocate here ben where it is a private company technically so they're allowed to make these rules you check the box when you log in you create your cow and sign up for it right. well you get sure of all the companies right but what's really interesting about this is this whole argument over section 230 right everyone's talking about section 213 again section 230 is written in a way that essentially pretax a platform from being responsible for what users upload so in theory the same section $230.00 protection that twitter and facebook and google and youtube use to
12:14 am
protect themselves is that is not being afforded a parlor to say hey we're not a publisher so if people come on our platform and they say things that you know like we're not the publisher of that but we're merely a platform for people to speak and these tech companies are saying hey you can't be a platform you have to be a publisher therefore controlling editorializing every piece of content on your platform that's what they're being told. and i guess lashed out at donald trump in the wake of the capitol hill riot the hollywood star and former california governor spoke about his childhood in post nazi austria and compared the president's actions to what happened in the run up to world war 2 i grew up in austria and very aware of christian or the night of broken glass waste it was that they have broken right united states president trump sought to overturn the results of an election you saw
12:15 am
the cool but misleading people. it was for misled also the lies. and the worse of the kristallnacht was a wave of attacks on jews across germany and austria in 1938 the name comes from the shattered glass that littered the streets of the nazi paramilitary forces raided and vandalized synagogues and jewish owned stores dozens of jews were killed thousands arrested that night but mary clued director of the durban holocaust to genocide center thinks parallels with last week's events are misguided. i believe that an allergy is all i'm helpful and so to me holocaust and energies. appropriate we always have to look at the context each circumstance and each the context it needs and the new aren't needs to be. always taken into consideration and each occasion and each circumstance needs to be unpacked in its entirety
12:16 am
because for the hope of many survivors similac today the holocaust is not a memory is not history it's lived experience it's the loss of the family members the torture that the polling circumstances that they were forced to endure and so as dreadful as these events and these particular events last week were on capitol hill we need to be careful in making analogies around calling it crystal mark. it's 60 minutes past the hour good morning from moscow coming up here on out to international with me kevin owen here today french alcoa produces suffer another headache after the us for the tire of so on the bring him up for the rest of these cover ups morning after the break.
12:17 am

12:19 am
alone again british companies are suffering massive delays and are even being turned back at the borders they try to ship to europe. who works for majestic firm in central england explain just how the government keeps changing the rules for export. we found that clarity of requirements for inboards an explorer shipments have been quite problematic since the expression has come into place to be in the. and we have a regular write downs from hygiene masi on what decorations need to work. however those who regularly change the logistical issues that we're facing at the ports mainly due to work and once we've got some clarity from the government and what we can pass on to our customers. then of really the. truth so why. in changing the evil leaves it would work but unfortunately the hasn't worked out that way. and i don't know what effect you know what they will. traffic
12:20 am
through the port of dover so 85 percent on 2019 drivers are reporting hours of delays resulting in huge losses and it's not just their cargo being held up either check out the video on dutch new showing one driver having his ham sandwich confiscated apparently violated the rules of origin. bit on the older brother not yet will get them if they come off a marriage yet a very good article to me. know everything will be. well another breaks it obstacles sparked up north for the pro independence scottish national party has demanded the british prime minister pay billions of pounds no in compensation to scotland for the damage the bracks it is doing to its economy and its mcneil of the scottish national party told us why. of course nobody's benefiting from black setbacks it's a complete lose lose scenario but in my part of the universe as analogous scotland
12:21 am
we're going to see the worst of all of you know from this exit that's been visited on people of the european union can get 5000000000 in 5000000000 euros in the u.k. go and understand cough up too and i'd argue that the highlands and islands deserve more than others because they're disproportionately disadvantaged by the exit to get out early is the black city as have made the european union be to curse that made them king because no every best has one and every company selling it the european market has to keep the bureaucrats with the clipboards happy people that ever saw before they're certainly seeing that no recent poll suggests that support 1st scottish independence from the u.k. is growing as angus macneil again explains. well in 2014 scotland was told that by voting just in the united kingdom was going to guarantee a place within the european union where for less than 2 years later for the blacks
12:22 am
at referendum we saw that wasn't true at all scotland was lied to effectively but also told don't just steen the united kingdom but lead the united kingdom when we want to destroy lead by staying in the european union we weren't allowed to have any sort of veto within the united kingdom and that we're going to the status quo we we got that dealt with england and wales what is significant is and 201455 percent of scots voted for in the european union but in 201662 percent of scores. in the european union if european union more popular with scots of referendums than the united kingdom. now elsewhere the us is imposing new additional tariffs on high alcohol a new winds a bit a long running trade dispute between washington and brussels one produces one this could lose that was the 1000000000 euro in exports this year alone. of
12:23 am
course these new tariffs pose a real threat for us moreover previously it's affected only under 14 percent strength winds but now it covers all types of wine it effects the whole french wine industry and no doubt we will feel the consequences of this standoff especially amid those countries that don't have such tariffs and this is such a bad time as the state of trade ties with the us is already dire because of the pandemic and we have kind of a large export volume to the us thus even with a mirror tariff increase on american wines we suffer more than they do tensions between the us and europe escalated in 2019 a row over airplane subsidies resulted in moves with america putting 25 percent levies on some european wines with more european alcohol now being targeted french producers are calling on its government to help. by we can export by placing them
12:24 am
on the edge of an abyss it is the entire wine and spirits sector the 2nd largest contributor to the balance of our country which is in danger that. in this case it would be better if taxes and other payments were decreased for example we wind producers provide the french economy with money via those taxes and that is ok but when we face a situation when our industry suffers the government would do better to ease some taxes we don't get any support from the government and to receive it well you know we have nearly 0 rights with the current almost communist french administration. joseph nye if you watch the clock it's a $24.00 and a half minutes past the hour just like you know our to go talk color course has got you covered for so much more news as well features great pictures check it out if you get a moment today but for now from moscow kevin owen signing off for the team of a great day.
