this is r t international. you know the french president has admitted that mistakes have been made at every stage of the pandemic in a televised address to the nation this week a manual micron also announced a 3rd nation wide lockdown as covert cases soar intensive care beds fill up and the country's death toll nears 100000 he said the situation left him with no other choice but. the thought that i know that every stage of this epidemic we might say to ourselves that we could have done better that we made mistakes school this is true we all need to make an additional efforts over the coming months this is what i ask of us collectively tonight since saturday a lockdown measures have been extended from 1000 areas to all of mainland france that means a nationwide curfew beginning at 7 pm and a ban on travel between regions schools have also been closed for at least 3 weeks while additional policing has been introduced to ensure no more than half

a dozen people gather at once the measures brought in by the french leader come as a u. turn to his previous decision not to lock down in january mr mccracken has faced increasing criticism from m.p.'s scientists and hospital bosses. i say to the government do it now but do it now do it for a shorter time but do it to concede there we were right not to implement a lockdown in france at the end of january because we didn't have the explosion of cases that every model predicted france's president is without a doubt an educated man emmanuel macro and through through the country's top institutions before making a mark in both the private or public sector he then repaying france's youngest ever president i mean it's a pretty impressive resume anti patrol he didn't sell for some learning he knew when to take advice needed it is important at this time by following the advice of

scientists as we've just done to ensure the continuity of democratic life and our institutions but now it seems being top dog isn't quite enough not corn his thrown himself into an entirely new discipline the president has acquired real expertise in health issues it is not an inaccessible subject for an intelligent person like him considering the important time he has dedicated to it for several months not cause aids if he wouldn't be declared that he has become an epidemiologist despite not having a scientific background in these claims over. seas on health issues have also rubbed the wrong way. mr mccracken is president of the republic and in the framework of the pandemic just like all heads of states he has become interested in epidemiological data yes to put his nose to the grindstone he's

obliged to take notice of trends but that doesn't make him an epidemiologist of course for all those that talk about epidemiology and among them we can find heads of states like president mccrone who talks about epidemiology just like we talk about politics while we talk about sculpture or about music but they're not necessarily sculpture artists or musicians. meanwhile fears of a nursing exodus in britain after a survey revealed that n.h.s. staff are significantly more likely to quit their job now than compared to last year exhaustion from the pandemic was cited as a big reason why according to the poll 24 percent of n.h.s. workers are more inclined to leave now than during the previous 12 months over a quarter of them are nurses and midwives 2 occupations facing major shortages while 7 in 10 people said a pay rise is the decisive factor but for student nurses there aren't any paid placement positions and they say that they are struggling to make ends meet $1.00

of them gave us her reaction to the surveys findings it doesn't surprise me it's what we've had to use it needs increased. the cost of living has gone up the wages have put in criticise so much stress on the nurses that midwives everyone involved in that fashion and i think to be honest with pandemic i think everyone has now had enough and they need help and i feel the government need to help and increase the way to get a good environment for everyone. british health authorities have promised to provide the n.h.s. with an extra 29000000000 pounds but the nurse we spoke to says it's likely that money will be used up before it gets to student medics who have proved vital during the pandemic. we get the 5000 pound girl and some people get a 2000 pound grant and deny it with children or what feels like i mean tape but in reality isn't so in the i should say that the increase in childcare costs you know

the increase in council tax increase in fuel into placement in my 1st year i think it's a defeat by twice. and that should even as states that were actually retired nurses at the bank they could have been laid to say should i go into this position because i have a rabbi they are 2 children and that's what i'm like with 5 required what was quite a full time child care and the other one it just starts it's go the funds come for you all to have already so i doubt the course of that for you but the potential if you leave the course and it does add to the mental so that the sorry sorry dr and. also this week the long awaited w.h.o. report on the origins of covert 1000 was released but immediately faced sharp criticism worldwide for leaving many questions still unanswered even the organizations director general has called for further research we are still russian member of the mission why getting to the bottom of the outbreak is proving so

difficult. which will cause a mission started off into phase one why was it called that it was clear from the beginning nobody expected us to find on sr all the questions rights away in fact he was prepared to rework aimed at analyzing the data we had accumulated and establishing hypotheses in general it's hard to predict how long this investigation will take and how it will end but it should be done that's for sure. we managed to find out that the virus supposedly emerged in the period between the middle of november and the beginning of december however we don't know the exact location of the outbreak in my view it was in china but it's not clear yet it's unlikely though that the outbreak occurred in a wet market most probably it was some market visitor who had already been infected and spread the virus this suggestion derives from the fact that there were quite a large number of patients who had nothing to do with the markets we don't know who

the 1st patient was neither do we know the natural origin of covert 19 based on our common knowledge of various coronaviruses we suggest it's a but might have been a source. the issue is very much politicized everyone is trying to find someone to blame i've never considered the oblique hypothesis a theory there's so much talk about this in the media though but people don't really have an idea there is no scientific evidence or facts proving a leak as of today based on what we saw i can say that the suspect in a laboratory is run properly by well trained staff there is total compliance with all the rules regarding work with viruses of this has a class or even the class above the laboratory is regularly audited and is in the constant scrutiny of competence international organizations building from that we therefore can't say that a lab leak might have been the cause. we

didn't feel any pressure coming from our chinese colleagues actually it wouldn't even be the case i can't think of how they could have put pressure on us we are in no way affiliated with china people from various countries were part of our team who went to carry out this investigation on behalf of the w.h.o. and what would have been the point of pressurising us we hardly liaise with officials we were largely in touch with scientists. it has been months since donald trump was banned by social media giants but that doesn't mean there purge of the former president is over any time soon it was revealed on tuesday that facebook had removed an interview with him posted by his daughter in law and looks at whether silicon valley chiefs are now the new thought police. big tech censorship just keeps coming the latest is an interview from former u.s. president donald trump getting scrubbed from facebook in line with the full clip placed on donald trump's facebook an instagram account says

a content posted in the voice of donald trump will be removed and result in additional limitations on the account donald trump is not the president anymore he was sunning himself in florida so why exactly is it so dangerous for people to hear his interpretation of world events and just like that we are one step closer to wilson 1984 wow joe biden keeps repeating that big tack are his allies in his efforts to create a world where everyone has freedom of speech and the united states is spreading human rights across the planet but some are saying that a social media purge of a former president sets a dangerous precedent it is an issue that we have got to be thinking about because of anybody who thinks. yesterday it was donald trump who was banned and tomorrow could be somebody else who has a different very different point of view so i don't like giving that much power to a handful of high tech people but the devil is obviously in the details and it's something we're going to think long and hard on and that is how you preserve 1st

amendment rights without moving this country into a big lie a mentality and conspiracy theory all kinds of pro trump voices have been purged from social media you've got the removal of retired general michael flynn sidney power and 2008 vice presidential candidate of the libertarian party and commentator wayne allen root we've also seen big tech declare certain news stories to be off limits they have shut down discussion of the biden family and their shady business dealings they have actually scrub search results to remove conservative media outlets but yet all kinds of inappropriate content remains on social media 40 percent of americans have faced online harassment or hate. california wants to hold big tech accountable for what they are not censoring while they're too busy playing politics instead californians are becoming increasingly alarmed about the role of social media in promoting hate disinflation conspiracy theories and extreme

political polarization trost of social media has dropped to a low of 35 percent and it's not surprising either how social media originated with the idea being it would be a place for all kinds of people to be free to speak up and explore the marketplace of ideas instead it's turned into a place for playing politics and pushing some people's agenda while suppressing others they are afraid of because it felt would do a great for the american people who plans to set president try to get him out the way so he won't be able to run for office the office again because i know if you did run for office again that he will win we need to look back at the 1st amendment when it comes to the media because we have seen how the. coming from big tech and the media these people have too much control they have became rich and they really don't care about mappin you know your opinion so if government want to rein in big take against they could do it tomorrow if they wanted to do that the republican

party democrat party is the same on big text democrats and republicans on the same boat it takes 2000000 so bury the flag for say the whole thing is a political gain in a piece for our tea actress and activist rose mcgowan shared her own experience of being ousted by big tech. what do you pray to. a little pretty much speech going against from me i don't understand why you support evil jack dorsey and want to block. i was just spend it by twitter for posting an internet photo of bill clinton and getting massaged by and no wonder they flagged it for it indeed i was just trying to drive the point home about a disgusting human doing disgusting things i know twitter is trying to silence me

and i know a lot of the powerful democrats are behind it deactivated right sharon entirely 4 days after i helped out harvey weinstein my attacker in the new york times exposé 4 years ago there was a worldwide limited boycott twitter for 24 hour protests until they reinstated they did and they have but i have been shadow brands ever since i'm tired of having these men his feet on my neck i'm tired of having their hand over my mouth you guys are old pros to be tracked for a stright the little grows and you're supposed to be the freedom of speech he clapped for and that is a lot. still ahead of the program on r t international a poll suggests that most americans are anxious about losing their jobs over something that they have said online because of the onset of council culture to delve deeper into that after a short break this is our future measure. the

world is driven by dreamers shaped by one person of those presidential. no dares thinks. we dare to ask. for. this and you know became the bottleneck is the politics if you will move it and you know. there is a government you should let yourself through we call to this vision we said action

on this lead before it's not you go to lave and socially. at least go so-called peace with the palestinians all against between so you know those who say only look. back to the weekly here on our to international now any mom in the u.k. has warned of the prime minister that trouble is brewing unless muslims are shown more respect he also insinuated the country risks quote becoming like france a statement that many view as a threat it's after a teacher in northern england outraged parts of the muslim community by showing cartoons of the prophet muhammad to his class all we ask for is

a bit of respect if one teacher can do it another teach can do it 5 years down the line and we do not want this to be the case otherwise we are not responsible for the actions of some individuals. the teacher and his family are now hiding after receiving death threats the 29 year old has since apologized but has been suspended from his job some local muslims are demanding the school fire him outright however a petition calling for him to be reinstated has gained more than 70000 signatures u.k. the department of education has defended the teacher it is never acceptable to threaten the intimate dates teaches we encourage dialogue between parents and schools when he has emerged schools are free to include a full range of issues ideas and materials in their curriculum included with the challenge in a controversial subject to they obligations to ensure political balance outrage over a similar case in france last october led to the brutal murder of samuel paddy

a history teacher he was beheaded by a terrorist after showing cartoons of the prophet muhammad to his peoples during a discussion on freedom of expression to pay from christian concern and political and social commentator locked horns over the issues raised. this could be very easily turning into some kind of a powder keg and you do not throw that matches into such things we've seen in france and in many european countries the rise of the far right we've seen some to tears civil rights system pushing against islam pushing against muslims marginalizing them and it's open season on muslims courage attack them on free speech places and people make themselves are to be free speech martyrs or somehow muslims become inflamed with their own 15 western values so what's most alarming here is that a teacher asked her to go into hiding with police protection because what he's done he's he's discussed a point of discussion about

a cartoon and the why the subject of blasphemy he hasn't actually hurt anyone he hasn't actually even threatened any violence and yet there are obviously very real threats of violence against him so much so that the police are going to protect him and take his family his wife and his children into hiding i think that is very very concerning and i think we need to recover a sense of normality and a sense of people being able to openly discuss and educate people about these things and i've been around the block a few times and had this discussion a few times every time we've had this discussion on free speech and debate we have put down do worst of the ideas racism hatred we know it's not ok to be racist against muslims to make the argument is your right to be racist or is this racist we need to learn about religion that we need to learn about what people believe and we need to openly discuss them and so people and super about it let's be very clear about this that discussing a cartoon it's got about how it has nothing to do with basis and it's not racism at

all and what's happening here is people are trying to shut down discussion and using threats of violence when people judge. people who work with the english defense league you keep anti muslim interest across europe and the rest of the what i'll do you try and demonize muslims marginalize them would have enough you will not win the cultural debate. or is he ok to be poked fun at and be racist against muslims out of the lot of us reza what else is and you don't get to be offensive towards us this is not the way a free society should work he should definitely be defended it's all he's done is raise a discussion people should be free to discuss things in class if we're not free to discuss things we have a de facto blasphemy law in the country which is being enforced by more cruel that threatens violence against people. the issue of canceled culture is having an impact on people psychological well being a majority of people polled in the us say that they fear being sacked or reprimanded for views they share online. is

a chilling finding that most people in the country now are afraid they would be fired if they expressed their real views on social media of the nearly 2000 people surveyed 2 thirds view growing cancel culture as a threat to their freedom while more than half see it as endangering their job security we've got opinion among new yorkers. people are creative and have a different mindset some artist decide to do different things people you next door neighbors affected the different you that you might not agree on i don't feel they used to ruin their entire lives over what they think in their mind even though it is harsh and it could really go like that pocket sometimes i think it does scare people and it makes people think and maybe it's you sure you know. inappropriate. the idea of canceling counseling is bad and is not a good way of. creating difficult conversations because difficult conversations are

very important to making difficult topics less difficult. that can really change the way that a person interacts with the world or using. to also understand like being fed up with having to respond to people so sorry if you're so low it's always more complicated when it's presented. political commentator chadwick more shared his thoughts on council culture and from where it emerged. in the past we've always sort of focused on the government and focused on protecting the constitution but of course in this in this day and age the threats are coming not really from the government they're coming from businesses from private corporations and most importantly from each other so that makes it interesting and different i think from anything else. that we really experience and culture before it's you know and such a lot of this has become

a social media mob aying and threats to docs and get people fired and it's not i think right to upgrade them on many levels and most importantly it has a chilling effect on public discourse and i'm people being able to speak their minds to openly. discuss and advocate for things that they are the things that they truly believe in and their criticisms and maybe what's going on in culture and in government and even mechanical culture itself as we've seen just criticizing cancel culture 'd can get you canceled. as if performing open heart surgery isn't hard enough how about doing it in a burning building that's exactly what doctors in the far east of russia had to cope with on friday here is video from inside the operating theater during the fire the blaze broke out at around midday with most patients and staff quickly evacuating the hospital but a team of surgeons were operating on a patient at the time and had no choice but to keep going the surgery went as

planned and the patient was later moved to another clinic no one was injured in the fire investigators say electrical fault may be to blame. after months of unrest with protesters demanding the prime minister's resignation people in bulgaria have finally gone to the polls for parliamentary elections support of the ruling party had a road over corruption poverty and failure to reform the judicial system however despite that exit polls predict prime minister boyko solves center right party has secured the largest share of the vote there was a smaller turnout than in previous years as the country struggles with a 3rd wave of the pandemic so many took the chance to have their say despite covert fears. it's more dangerous in the tram or in the supermarket than here voting. it's a bit different but it works if you wish you can. be the only difference is the 12
