chancellor angela merkel has said that it's not the job of social media companies to decide who gets a voice and who doesn't speak to the chancellor considers it problematic that the accounts of the us president have now been permanently blocked there's also concern in france over the power social media giants have shown that they have and you know the person silencing them on social networks which have become a form of public space seems to me a complicated matter in the absence of specifically established criteria digital regulation should not be done by the digital or the go cute self regulation of the digital spheres a matter for a sovereign people governments and the judiciary the commissioner for internal market bret on has long been a big voice calling for tougher regulations on tech giants he described the capitol hill riot that we saw last wednesday in washington d.c. as the 911 moment for social media according to mr brett all following that

violence and the subsequent actions of social media companies to ban a sitting u.s. president from their platforms nothing can be the same again the food the c.e.o. composed the plug on poets is loudspeaker without any checks and balances is perplexing the onerous demotions and is proof that a powerful and brigley to digital space room innocent of the wild west has a profound impact on the very foundations of our modern democracies social media giants and banning donald trump from their platforms has poured gasoline on to. the fire of a free speech debate that's been going on for a while now what we heard from terry brett on the commissioner in charge of these things is that there are 2 pieces of legislation that would tabled by the e.u. commission at the end of december that we'll be looking to address this further europe they'll be putting reins on the social media giants as well as what could be

posted on their platforms. but it's not only world politicians or rights groups are also warning that the trunk ban could be a slippery slope and as artists ask you tell explains as 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 known this temple to democracy over the policy a few decades the us has been busy exporting its brand of democracy all over the world but it looks like fine to me the wells 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 its biggest step yet to limit president trying to reach twitter 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 voters to run the country silent spite on the elected technocrats instead of conveyor out with the american constitution in with twit says thompson uses 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 taxies bad actors have free while trump loyalists annoy is leading the election fraud claims right wing talk so whole sense of the story looked 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 the 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 and a lot of things but one of them is the definition of democracy now we have to figure out how to reeducate all the people trump and fox news have damaged but before all 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 after thought in influx of
7:10 am
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 a google apple and amazon united to destroy it that's what monopoly power means it's not just the 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 when 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 phone 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 j.s. railton and friends here easy. 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. no not a tapped out of all whiles 984 just america the land of the free in 2021 parlor the social networking site popular with trump supporters is now suing amazon for being removed from its web hosting service r.t. america has been bust as gus the latest and whether online giants give users the same protections they allow themselves what we're seeing right now also is truly
7:12 am
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 they 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 but 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 protects 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
7:13 am
protect themselves is that is not being afforded the parlor to say hey we're not a publisher so if people come on our platform and they say things that you don't 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. a case of one rule for some but another for those who make the rules british prime minister boris johnson's apparently been caught exercising 11 kilometers from his residence despite his government's clear instructions to people not to exercise outside their local area and just days after 2 women were fine hundreds of pounds for driving just 8 kilometers for a walk those fines were rescinded after massive public criticism however artie's

a shoddy edwards daschle looks at how johnson's a bad example comes at the worst possible time for britain. the relentless surge of 1000 infections up and down the country has prompted a stark warning from the health secretary. 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 next chance 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 going

most grieve this our hospital. 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 locked down shouldn't be in place at all and they clash with police over that we can't.
7:16 am
do that vaccines are not does provide some light at the end of the tunnel but there are many. 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 is to really employ people to follow the rules and do not go out and less it's necessary the n.h.s. i think is close to breaking point i think the government have been too slow right from the beginning that would 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 they brought the infection with them that were 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
7:17 am
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. it seems britain's in a double bind at the moment is that the worst part of the pandemic according to the house secretary plus it's caught up in red tape as companies trying to trade with europe close to prague said details on that story and more after the short break. anyone else chose seemed wrong. wrong just don't call. me. yet to seep out. become active. and engaged with equals

thousands arrested that night mary kluger director of the durban holocaust and genocide center things parallels with last week's events are misguided. believe that analogies all helpful and suited to the holocaust and the energies in the program we always have to look at the context each circumstance and each shift other context it needs and the nuance needs to be. always taken into consideration in each occasion and each circumstance needs to be unpacked in its entirety because for many survivors today but holocaust is not a memory is not history it's lived experience it's the loss of the family members the torture of the the polling circumstances that they were forced to endure and so as dreadful as these events and these particular events last week. on

capitol hill we need to be careful in making analogies around calling it crystal not. us is imposing new tariffs on high alcohol e.u. wines amid a long running trade dispute between washington and brussels on producers warn this could lose them almost a 1000000000 euro in exports this year alone. of 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 affects 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
7:22 am
between the us and europe escalated in 2019 a disagreement over airplane subsidies resulted in tit for tat moves and america putting 25 percent levies on some european wines of more alcohol now being targeted at french producers are calling on their government for help. by we can export by placing them on the edge of an abyss it is the entire wine and spirits sector the 2nd largest contributor to the balance of all a country which is in danger. in this case it would be better if taxes and other payments were decreased for example we wine 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.
7:23 am
french wine isn't the only product getting punished on the continent a dutch news video has gone viral showing a u.k. driver having his ham sandwich as confiscated he is banned british meat products over fears they contain dangerous pathogens like foot and mouth disease but even the dutch border guards found their move mildly amusing. he don't even know not yet ok let me take them all i mean yeah right you know it's a good to me to be the greatest know everything will be. in all british companies are suffering huge delays and are even being turned back as a boarder as they try to ship to europe post said traffic through the u.k. port of dover is down 85 percent on 2019 drivers are reporting hours of hold ups who works for one logistics firm in central england broke down the new obstacles. we found the clarity of requirements for boards and unexplored shipments have been
7:24 am
called problematic since the expression has come into place to be. and we have a great deal write downs from hygiene masi on what decorations need to work. however those who regularly changes the logistical issues it with faction of the ports manager to work i'm going to quote some clarity from the government and what we can pass on to our customers. then of late the. 2 charts one and they'll. be in changing the eve believed it would work but unfortunately it hasn't worked out that way. and i don't know that you don't know what i. and another brags that obstacles developing up north the a pro independent scottish national party is demanding boris johnson pay billions of pounds compensation to scotland the damage drugs it's doing to its economy party member angus macneil told us why. of course nobody's benefiting from black setbacks

7:26 am
at referendum we saw that motion told that scotland was lied to effectively but also told don't just deed the united kingdom but lead the united kingdom when we want to destroy a league 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 could that dealt with england and wales what is significant is in 201455 percent of scots $48.00 for the united kingdom if you've been union but in 201662 percent of scarves would you just be in the european union if european union more popular with scots and referendums than the united kingdom. that's been our wrap up of the day's top news for now but don't forget you can always find us on many of your favorite social media platforms like twitter and instagram for up to the manner of parts.
