2:02 am
disasters today we're witnessing a very 21st century style of mass migration the already massive influx of new users to telegram has only accelerated we may be witnessing the largest digital migration in human history millions have recently chosen to ditch the old new media as messengers and move to even newer ones like telegram or signal and there are 2 big bug bears behind the exodus privacy is the big one whatsapp snooty and see we'll see who is this little footprint shared more with parent firm facebook and who wants to open up even more of the world's most notorious data harvester 2nd as censorship triggers to recent purge of donald trump and his supporters has laid bare the capacity of the internet's gatekeepers to silence anyone they deem to be dangerous that's got other world leaders spooked a suspect the chancellor considers it problematic as the accounts of the us presidents have now been permanently blocked i don't like anybody being son so it's
2:03 am
taking away the right to post a message on twitter facebook i don't agree with that i don't accept that 10 world leaders including the presidents of turkey and brazil have already made the switch to telegram much to the appreciation of the firm's founder we are honored that political leaders as well as numerous public organizations rely on telegram to combat misinformation and spread awareness about important issues in their societies unlike other networks telegram doesn't use opaque algorithms to decide whether a subscriber will see content they subscribe to or not as a result telegram channels are the only direct way for opinion leaders to reliably connect with their audiences the internet has represented freedom since its inception it's supposed to be a place where you can read what you want say what you want but arbitrary says. the ship and the big platforms we know which you want better than you do approach is
2:04 am
the last straw for many not that titans are prepared to lose business to the competitors declaring the alternative is nothing short of a threat to society before stamping them out we have always supported diverse points of view being represented on the app store but there is no place in our platform for threats of violence and illegal activity we cannot provide services to a customer that is unable to effectively identify and remove content that encourages our incites violence against others parlor one of the biggest alternative social networks was wiped off line in a matter of days following the capital riots and now even telegram is facing accusations of being a haven for conspiracy theorists and far right extremists and that's despite the fact that the company recently removed dozens of groups containing calls to violence but while big texts and to take out competitors might occasionally yield success it doesn't change the fact that social media space is evolving and fast and for many free speech will be the deciding factor in choosing
2:05 am
a platform well people make a move turkey's envoy to the czech republic is one of many politicians who switched to uncensored online messaging rival telegram for instance told us people are frightened of traditional online giants these days i think in the long run facebook well it's out so it's are controlled by the same corporate there's an makers have to revise the rules because they have. in a way to scare people we know that there are already a lot of the nation cases against them for misusing information and there were a lot of court cases but now they're making it public so in a way the secret is now coming out that the information is in use and they are actually getting your consent for it and and they have double standards if you are a what's yours are in germany you have a different conditions but if you are in russia or if you're in turkey if you're in azerbaijan if your income is that you are entitled to different rules this is not
2:06 am
fair we now live in a global village and these kind of forms connect all of us so technology should not be discriminative technology and communication should be embracing everyone and i think these policies are going to make people feel that they have been isolated and they have been discriminated against. us here this morning hundreds of asylum seekers have gone on hunger strike with some even attempting suicide over desperate conditions at a makeshift temporary camp in southern england rights groups warn the former army barracks the conditions there are worse than a prison overcrowding there's also left refugees terrified of catching kovan our correspondent shot had ridged ashley reports from the site.
2:07 am
napier barracks a former military site in folks in kent now uses temporary accommodation for about $400.00 male asylum seekers has reached boiling point the men inside have taken to the streets surrounding the barracks in protest over grim conditions they are living in and painful uncertainty about their futures hunger strikes demonstrations even sleeping outside of their last resort it is very cold some are protesting about and. some are protesting for transparency. but they need no news about how long we're going to stay in this part you know we have no idea about. what we lost hope and we are desperate i have been here for 3 months and i feel really bad 14 people were one room people breathing on each other there is no privacy the room is separated by a partition we have to share toilets and it only has to keep
2:08 am
a cost for 20 people there are reports of a number of suicide attempts inside including one just days ago with victims being returned to the barracks shortly after last. one i being so. rude. i was. asked to talk. back now. his role. last month. was. and it seems like conditions have only become worse since my last visit just 2 months ago when it was clear something was very wrong there were already accounts of poor hygiene and out of all. the facilities as well as if the crowded rooms if they couldn't breach of the government's own covert regulations and now allegations
2:09 am
of positive cases inside i would assume that the government is breaking its own law on the on the basis of that we are no in a position or severe lockdown conditions new variant is highly infectious yet for some reasons do do you have salim seekers have some sort of forcefield that protects them from colbert you know why are they being treated in such a manner why they've been you know what i can only regard as you know a petri dish for the spread of corona virus if you have one person was to contact co but it was spread like wildfire those in the barracks continue waiting for a response to the applications to stay in the u.k. some have been at the temporary site since it opened in september human rights lawyers say it's totally unsuitable we find time and same again the whole base of the u.k. government is repeatedly you know breaking the law it's repeatedly breaking health and safety regulations and they've created a climate of fear and a barbaric institution houses asylum seekers in such conditions and it's not acceptable in any civilized society but the home office denies these claims it says
2:10 am
it is providing cave it's a kill safe accommodation as well as offering support to those who need it the government takes the wellbeing of asylum seekers extremely seriously we've tried to sayas seekers a safe warm covert secure suitable commendation where they receive 3 meals a day whilst the claims are being processed despite the government's promise that help is available at any hour they have been claims that foreigner pull aside and seekers have enjoyed long wait times to get in touch which could be fatal the home office may claim it's offering a decent standard of support but the warning signs have been there since napier opened its doors and without any political will to effect change it seems that for these men the situation will only get worse shouted at woodstock's day r t u k. despite the condemnation there are plans to extend the nother prison star camp in the south of the country ministers will add prefabricated housing to the yarl's wood facility to hold up to $200.00 migrants but experts warn the government's
2:11 am
whole attitude to refugees at the site is wrong our concern with yarl's wood specifically is also the fact that. it's on the sites of an immigration removal center now this is very important for individuals who have. left their home countries possibly suffered a good essentially in their home countries to maybe victims of trafficking on the way over to put them in a place where they feel as if they are being treated the same as people who are being detained in order to remove them from this country let's change the very damaging the home office has accommodation all over the country they haven't told us what the occupancy levels is of those of the existing combination of you see at the moment with the pandemic it's very likely that there will be huge levels of vacancies in cells and. so it's unclear why they've taken this decision
2:12 am
on an emergency basis to house up to 200 asylum seekers on the site of yours with immigration moving sent. them a bigger uncertainty about how long europe's covert pandemic will last greece now thinks it may have a solution to get tourists flocking to its resorts again the prime minister there wants the e.u. to urgently agree a way for vaccinated travelers to freely cross borders. it is a trick to adopt a common understanding about how vaccination certificates should be structured so they can be accepted in all member states covert passports are being suggested by other states to inform the danish health ministries try to work on a certificate for vaccinated travelers airlines are also launching onto the idea a survey for australia's quantas shows that 9 of the 10 people say they would get inoculated in order for them to be able to travel but more than half
2:13 am
a year of talks around the world of so far failed to agree across a border deal of the world travel and tourism council says people haven't heard the should also of course be allowed to travel. the dog we are it sure is totally against health passports ok and we believe that as well because that can lead to discrimination unfortunately the bank scene is not available everywhere learned a lot of developing countries that they still don't have access to the vaccine don't see that as the only solution mass vaccination should not be the only consideration currently we have a limited supply and we need to where it does the more liberal groups we don't have to wait for a vaccine to travel while at the same time people can to still travel as long as you have for instance if you're coming from on this in nation with cases of 42 and this nation with a lower case of course it will be helpful 2 percent and this is where we have a nasty in. a test negative for call the survey you're allowed to board
2:14 am
a plane with a test in massive testing implemented before boarding or before flying what we say is a digital certificate gate or a paper certificate should be fine you only reason why the digital certificate gate is a stronger is because you avoid corruption or you avoid. fake certificates but a paper certificate should also be fine we believe that a digital certificate of. it should be fine enough and we truly believe that we have to protect the health information for the traveler and for people in general. but for now is the last result will from says bring in nationwide curfews this weekend as other methods of failed to curb the spread of corona virus. reports from paris. that koofi starts at 6 pm in the evening and it will last until 6 am in the
2:15 am
morning and that will come into force that we have time for almost saturday so this is because 900 cases still set in roy's ink here for its way so 18000 cases on average every day being registered in french government had hoped that they be able to get control on it it hasn't sent for now it means that shops will have to close to the public 6 pm in the evening that people will be able to stay in a little longer than that now there are fines if you will called outside and don't have the right form say that you can be outside after 6 pm in the evening you will be followed 135 euros. defense but if you do that and 2nd times during a month period say 3 times that will rise to $3750.00 euros and a possible 6 month jail sentence but the prime minister did for the moment to rule out a further lockdown shuffle is exceptionally year apart from situations linked to public
2:16 am
services premises businesses all services are open to the general public will be closed at 6 pm if we see in the coming days a strong deterioration in the epidemic we will consider without delay implementing a new lockdown the that is likely to cause a massive concern to those who run restaurants cafes policy these are places that have been shut down for people to go in and sit in eating meals since the middle of october but many of them are lying on the fact that they've been providing takeout services and they take out services are lunch and the evening under these new could be restrictions these businesses will have to shut by 6 pm meaning that there will be no take care of services in the evening which could severely restrict their businesses and many will probably be saying that this is going to be the last nail in the coffin. for their business and we know that the buddhist will be strengthened as
2:17 am
a result will continue to prove that 19 pandemics that we've been told that anyone coming from the country outside the european union will have to present it in big never negative test before they flight plans of those who do present that test will have to then some postulate to 7 days even before taking and know that test to prove that they are not who made 19 areas that we have also heard that they will be several 100 vaccinations centers that will be opened next week and they really trying to run this vaccination campaign and campaign here with for example that being sick believing that the beginnings of being so slow to talk it now is to vaccinate the needy people body and generally we manage it we've been told that from january 18th to anyone who is likely to develop serious illness as a result contracting through people in teen will no be able to jump the queue and get a girl at least at that age. and all can come soon enough trunk of the world bug spreading
2:18 am
2:19 am
2:20 am
comparisons as well to some of been a lot of. there are millions of americans almost all white almost all republicans. somehow need to be deprogrammed they are members of a cult with trumpets cult there are republican members of congress i know who clearly have lost their minds who just will not accept reality when it comes to the facts about donald trump i'm comparing the words of individual who would incite and radicalize somebody as osama bin laden did to what president trump did but the flip side of this trump support is a questioning the mainstream media assault on even ask who are the ones that have been brainwashed in. they don't like their opinion and call them brainwashed i just don't agree with them people are brainwashed by the media it to divide people that ever way. this thing settled down the. freedom of speech
2:21 am
is an american people who voted for trump wanted to change it it cannot wipe out a whole 75000000 people that don't agree with you you can vote. for whoever you want to thank you should be afraid of having people come back we all need to come together unite. our good that they have identified from supporters as so dangerous in groups that they have to be prevented from forming in groups for the safety of the american people there's no there's no comparable message coming from the right about the left nothing from the right that would destroy the unity that we all should have and probably wish we did have the unity in america is long gone because the people calling for the loudest are the same people who think we should go to jail we should have our guns taken from s.s. and we are the side that is not violent while they let their side who is violent
2:22 am
rampage around the country for almost a full year. they have absolutely spoken out of both sides of their mouths on this on the left and there's going to be a political process to play for the. shoppers in northern ireland are finding rows of empty shelves in grocery stores or bricks it's being blamed new restrictions were slapped on goods shipped from a land u.k. to northern ireland or to britain totally eventually cut the cord with the e.u. 2 weeks ago now heads of the big supermarket chains of issued an urgent plea then for the government to sort out the red tape. we recognize the european commission needs to see increased compliance to support the concessions granted through the northern ireland protocol but the current proposals increased bureaucracy and certification in such a short timescale are unworkable indeed the prime minister was questioned in parliament over the supply issues but he played down the problems but the moment goods are flowing if the normal volumes between great britain and northern ireland
2:23 am
so prime move lorries have been toned. scottish fishing companies are also furious warning their products are going to waste through delivery hold ups bosses even threaten to dump their rotting seafood outside parliament if they can't get their goods to market by the next week for more bricks it party and the people etheridge told us britain's government should be ashamed of itself. this should never have got to this point it's absolutely irresponsible and ridiculous that the british government led to this point years ago we should have had the discussion with the do you want to do trade with us and keep out of our business if the answer was no we should've left off world trade organization terms with a transition period which was built into what had been agreed that could've made all of this absolutely not no chance of happening instead of that they drove its last minutes and boris johnson gave ground to the because he was terrified of go it alone and he has let the country down a bit without enough delays the real the very reason we're in this position as i
2:24 am
said earlier was that we've been delayed for too long this neatly into apartments this is people who are trying to deny the will of the people delayed this to the point where this is now happening they are responsible and the government has a responsibility to sort itself out they created this mess not the people who voted bret's it the government is responsible the government will soar today. talking to europe or for the very heart of it next germany's ruling party said to vote for a new leader this weekend the winner in the christian democrats ballots likely to become the next chancellor to us. term expires this coming october your correspondent breaks down the candidates. the c.d.u. party the christian democratic union will elect a new leader this weekend it will see who should be the next contender to be the chancellor of germany who will replace angela merkel when she steps down she confirmed again during her new year's address that she would not be running for the
2:25 am
chancellorship in september's vote we had heard from her 1st way back in 2018 saying she wasn't going to stand again this 4th term as my last as german chancellor and the 2021 problem and to relax and i will not put forward my candidacy for the chancellor she began so who's in the running to replace a well the leader of the state of north rhine-westphalia english shot at 59 years old he's a real big ally of angular merkel very much seen as the continuity counted it then there's friedrich minutes at 65 the oldest in the running he is a multi-millionaire corporate lawyer a long term rival of. then there's nobody to get 55 the youngest in the race and he is currently the chairman of the foreign affairs committee and certainly knows his way around the bundestag he's been a member of the parliament since the 1994 let's have
2:26 am
a listen to what all of the candidates have to say ahead of this weekend's conference i stand for everyone and i think that those who did not vote for me if i am elected will also be able to live with me and accept me do we want to continue to play in a regional leak every country for itself or do we want to play champions league to play a role in the world. it's what i bring is government experience that would disapprove of big federal state balancing different interests and perhaps this doesn't hurt to you would have already won the election however whoever wins the c.d.u. leadership may not end up standing for chancellor what we're seeing is what's being called a shadow campaign ran to push forward the leader of the state of bavaria on the leader of the christian democratic society and sister party the christian social union marcus zone then this health minister yen spawn he's being touted as a potential outside bet to run as chancellor what we will know is who will lead the
2:27 am
