legitimacy of their view that's why westminster is very anxious to keep so we've from the ballot box is what we asked that question an established and the and that's why western is that we're fighting to send will not eating because the few and the view of the scottish people through the ballot box. that's why we should be using the ballot boxes and need to start. and westminster whether they do or they don't want scottish independence can't go on disagreeing with the people in a democratic nation and that nation stockman is a union at the moment and in 20 opinion polls one after the other and the scottish people want to leave the union and become an independent country not be a democrat but iceland the only other normal country a vast majority of people in scotland are against having it at the moment because of the problems and not only that but we had one recently and we decided that we were going to remain in the union so the whole thing has been decided for

generations the scottish national party should want to keep on pressing and pressing and pressing but the people me vote for the scottish national party but that doesn't mean to say they're going to vote for our independence or the referendum every time it comes to a referendum or discussing the matter people want to state and united kingdom because an independent scotland is an economic catastrophe for scotland. is sad story italy slapped a ban on take talk uta's who haven't verified their rage after a 10 year old girl died in a riffing blackout challenge on the video sharing up the online game of all those people choking themselves to temporarily pass but this is silly in youngster it was found dead in her bathroom. carrying that diana fact the medics did everything they could to bring the child back to life but unfortunately although the heart immediately started beating again the brain had been starved of oxygen for too long due to the strangulation after a few hours of irreversible cama who concluded she was brain dead well tech talk

so-called good life the charm wears off there have been complaints the frogs are meeting to noisily roosters crowing the top of my voices in the morning and the cows are smelly while the church bells are also a bit of a nuisance we met one family in experienced similar problems and there was a bentley a year ago my neighbors moved to our region and they asked me whether our animals live here year round because they found the noise of sheep intrusive i told them the sheep are being grazing here for 20 years and there's no way i was writing to another place because here i have enough land to feed them i think they just get used to other noises and subways cars the sound of countryside life is new to them so i told them it's a matter of habit and 6 months time you have noticed them. so what the locals make of city dwellers who come here and complain it's so stupid either they are stupid or the village is what it is what it sounds animals bells and if people come here

also the sounds smells activities and practices that are part of our heritage and that is more to people says here but i am happy about the new law i think the countryside should remain countryside if people don't like our way of life they can live in cities to fit this has to be done i recently heard about a farmer who was forced to bury poland because toes there were making too much noise the plant has been there for years but the corps decided it needs to be burned because of the new leader after people the warning is that if you move to the countryside you'd better be prepared to get up close and personal with the real neighbors charlotte. ever. wrote we got to come while social media facing fresh privacy concerns after facebook gave the f.b.i. 1 personal messages of users involved in washington's capitol hill right of way

when the back. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation or community. are you going the right way or are you being led. away. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. for a mate in the shallowness. those

of us who watch carefully the rushing game hoax always worried it would eventually become the foundation for policy the by the ministry she has done things. what to do with transporters our american liberals the bracing this. morning you may have heard the sad news our colleague in legendary us t.v. and radio host larry king died in hospital the weekend at the age of 87 course in his state interviewed many many famous people from around the world for an illustrious career but in 2015 the tables were turned artie's going underground program afshin rattansi sat there with larry as part of our channels 10 year anniversary celebrations over the years i've been blessed to have that of you know 8 presidents. and. so many was going to be jackie

robinson and martin luther king but the most emotional interview. was with the new york city cop. this cop. we booked him and i had a bit know what the story was i just knew that he was on the new york city police force and that he was shot in an incident in central park and he was in a wheelchair and paralyzed for life and he had a little child who he couldn't feel so i was 3 years old and there was a series of. a bike that said central park some people were stealing bikes and he was on patrol driving in a squad with his fellow patrol and they spotted this black kid with a brand new schwinn bike. and he got out of a car and was approaching

a kid and the kid shot to shot. he really didn't feel pain he remembered a puff of smoke coming out of this thing him of the falling down remember the ride in the ambulance they gave him a last rites of the catholic church and he thought he was going to die anyway survived but he paralyzed that down his with his wife was pregnant and he wondered why did this boy shoot. and the boy was in jail and when as a minor he was 17. and he was in for attempted murder we don't know what the sentence was but anyway he went to visit the kid and the kid came out in the cell duty and he said to the kid why did you shoot. and the kid said. i didn't saving for this bike for 4 years i worked doing the groceries.

and a student and finally got my bike. and you were the 10th tops to stop me today but. to stop me what are you doing with this boy would you have stopped me if i were white. and it's absolutely had a think about it and just the 1st billy have a think about it. made him understand is a kid start 10 terms of course he had a new bike just because he is bored and frustration. ended up being. the top. became the kids of big brother. any government job. and a kid came up. with

out. facebook is facing new privacy concerns after revelations that he gave the f.b.i. private messages of those who discussed storming the capitol building on january the 6 intelligence agency revealed the information as part of its criminal case now into the rides. confidential source c s one identified a facebook account is being utilized by chris kelly confidential source provided to the f.b.i. screenshots containing content posted to and sent and received by this account the materials provided by confidential source c s one he clued a screenshot of the accounts profile picture or recent analysis reveals the vast majority of criminal cases filed by the us justice department use social media information including more than a 3rd of those convicted earlier this week the head of the house oversight

committee asked the f.b.i. to investigate the role of social media site potter as well which is popular with conservatives including some of those who played a part in the capital riots as democrats have set their sights firmly on the big 3 social media platforms asking them to make radical changes for a start they are you tube to disable auto play and stop recommending conspiratorial content facebook should fundamentally reexamined its recommendation algorithm and twitter needs to prompt users to add their own comments when retreating technology expert roger k. and internet lawyer yaya cohen discussed with us who they think responsible for social media content. before 2 o'clock one of the under pressure anyway tonight you're there there are we're going to get they have not been disciplined properly you know they got pretty fast and loose with people's information and they're being chased down now by. various federal authorities and other thing with you guys have

to come back into line. also be in social media platform to sell struggling for a rule in the future are changing so i think it's a different environment than it was before january so the question is now it's no wood at the end it is going to be st said no twitter facebook it's going to be $22.00 doing the fear out i mean they use this previously but always going to do it is 1st is is censorship going to be derived of government or censorship is going to be the role of say facebook what's interesting is section $230.00 that so far protecting these platforms from being responsible for what's on their sites and there's a kind of the understanding in us lives that if you touch it you own you know if you carry this packet you're not obliged to know it's inside it you're the sooner send something illegal then they're the ones who are in trouble not you the carrier so the carriers will be protected but i think the story in in this world now is that it's soon as you touch it you're editing it now you become a publication and you have a whole different sort of lives that you know are so i think the really the

platform to be very reluctant to touch their content one because it slows down the last year their content not what they live on and the other is once you touch it you own it and you become responsible for the content that's coming out undersides national media companies and website operators are allowed to go to to filter through content allow to remove contain to change content in scale not in still receive the protection of section $230.00 i think the question is is a much bigger the question is who is in charge who is god the ability to decide what content should be disclosed what's called then should be a population what's called been should be published. so i think looking so far from moscow this one they check it out over social media for all the rest the stuff we're talking about today but for now from where the table here thanks for watching have a good monday. by

the demick no certainly no borders just blind to nationalities. as american people we don't have the backseat world beat's to be. a judge of. common every crisis with this system to time so we can do better we should. everyone is contributing each of our own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges grateful to response

on my book you go to the british bush that's enough of them stuff. i mean the guy. wanted. to. take. israel media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation full community. are you going the right way or are you being led. by. what is true what's his face. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us

in the depths. or in maybe in the shallowness. right now there are 2000000000 people who are overweight or obese it's profitable to self. and sugary and salty and addict and it's not at the individual level it's not individual willpower and if we go on believing that would never change this obesity epidemic that industry has been influencing very deeply the medical and scientific establishment in the us and what's driving the obesity epidemic it's call for profit.

hello in welcome to cross talk we're all things are considered i'm peter lavelle those of us who watched carefully the russian gate hoax always worried that it would eventually become the foundation for policy the biden ministration has done exactly this and what to do when trump supporters are american liberals embracing the soviet experience. to discuss these issues and more i am joined by my guest patrick cummings an employment he's the editor and founder of the 21st century wire and here in moscow we're joined by bob and she is a political analyst and editor and you know some internet media project telling cross up rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciated when i was going to patrick in plymouth well by good ministration is started its foreign policy approaches 0 and of course russia is as always close to

the top for some reason and those of us didn't watch the russia gate hoax over these years we always lamented as i said in my introduction that it would be it would not bleed into policy well it is done that ok well we we have mixed signals i mean we can talk about the of the 5 year extension on the new start treaty that's about to expire next month which is good news and we always cheer for good news but i wonder if there's going to be linkages because we still have this rhetoric of russia interfering meddling in american politics so it's never never spoken out why wouldn't allow that the united states medals in every country is. internal politics here so a mixed bag patrick but as i like to do i'd like to stress is that it is dictations story russia gate has bled into policy and that's something that we all worried about go ahead with something that we were warning about from the very beginning is the danger of allowing a sort of official conspiracy theory to permeate.
