9:06 am
today's hacks. i didn't tell you that you were in here after your 3 campaign event regulations chief a lot of your haven't seen it is designated how when instructed to do you say no when the police came to the door they said they do not need a warrant to construe my whole came through the only rest of me on the wrong name for a start which is absolutely ridiculous how police can contribute or without a warrant probably going to arrest me on the wrong name. it's just you know it's absolutely above and beyond all to the tame me when i was 2 days in to isolate you know home with a stipulated that will be on the passenger locator for how does it make any sense that take me out of that environment and then keep me is basically a glorified there's no i left this crunch in the fish place because of the of the u.k. government failed the people and i'll terribly the on the the situation. when he flew back from bahrain transiting through abu dhabi and frankfurt before ending his journey in manchester abu dhabi there was in the united arab emirates which is on
9:07 am
the red list to prevent you koby strains being brought into the country the government has ruled that anybody returning from the red this country does have to quarantine for 10 days in a designated hotel on arrival and pay almost 2000 pounds for the privilege although scuse me mr owens did tell us he believes that the conditions are not a safe as you might think. you treated like a killer like an animal almost you get your meals delivered every day when the not on the dog and then they just leave your food on the floor for you to open the door and just be you know pick your food up off the floor the big thing for me is the because the on taken you know extreme measures were put in place to detain me in the video and bring me here so at the expect that to be matched by extreme precautions taken and the not there before the stuff that i've got the contract for this for these kinds of hotels the only p.p. the wit is
9:08 am
a must have got pictures of some of them not even when the droplets open if the nose and i've even got pictures of ones i haven't even got over the mouth in my case in particular literally 4 to abu dhabi i'm still an international grounds i haven't gained immigration of literally just been transferred through but on top of everyone's got to produce a negative test to be a not airport no one could just walk into an airport you've got to go for the bits to get a procedure even in front of it i have to produce my boarding pass on my part and you're located to form which i'll be isolating the whole call the consulate and go through the correct procedure to try and get the voice recordings of the device but ultimately i was told anyway i'm on just the board's advice or not the onus is on the trouble and so if that's the case then obviously so be it but the events that happened off that are just you know it's ludicrous. mineral water brand f.e.m. has made a splash for all the wrong reasons it's being accused of islamophobia over a tweet encouraging people to drink more water explaining more his shall it
9:09 am
a bit scary. do you really me this is perhaps nothing more than a. something to quench your thirst with the ground everyone has found itself in some very hopeful to hear influence being accused of everything is a lot of phobia to being a victim of intellectual terrorism and it started with a tweet seems innocent enough rowing to retreat if you handily to a group i don't necessarily even say water i mean you're supposed to drink 2 meters a day but new mystery mind of a staple for human life was put at all 1st day of ramadan a festival with muslims for eating and drinking during daylight hours the reaction king week unfolds just. i have to explain to my mother how it is normal for everyone to tweet about water even during ramadan because she thinks they are islamophobia you know it's ramadan you're abusing if you issued an apology coming
9:10 am
into coors in the offense and saying that the person was conning busy but not any so everyone sinking even deeper into culture to see. i would never buy every allegation inadmissible to apologize it's basically a cool health message and yet you have to apologize if in 2021 ask you who drinks what i since provoke you should have a consultation. every umbrella under attack for advertising water on ramadan day for some islamists muslim festival should be imposed on everyone well no let's stop this madness soon was in the street to exult it is a long way off through here in paris people read the best food boy that allegation not for me know i saw the controversy i saw the to eat frankly i think it could be a coincidence in my opinion there was no bad intention and they deleted the tweet
9:11 am
to avoid unnecessary control the city but not at all because they felt guilty. for me it's not a slam a for b. i don't understand it like that for me would denigrate a strong want to say look at her she still veiled for me that's a slum a full get. him or madonna when i'm doing my ramadan i know where to start in the morning and it goes on until the evening i don't eat so i don't drink it has nothing to do with business or anyone else if someone tweets like this i don't care how many muslims also took to twitter to say that they didn't think that tweet by everyone was is a little thing but we do so want to question the way that any muslim had indeed been left insulted by evian or if somehow this whole story was the result of a when. they were playing it rather say so much even ski o.t. paris. afghan translators you help western forces in afghanistan
9:12 am
claim they will pay with their blood when american and nato troops are pulled out of the country by mid september a former afghan translator for the british army shared his concerns with r.t. . i think minister of defense and the u.k. government as a whole are forgetting that interpreters were key assets off the the 18 year long combat military mission in afghanistan and leaving them behind and forgetting them is this putting them at risk afghanistan is a very dangerous and hostile land in central asia so the trip under shadow of fear and insecurity that again exists there will certainly affect the lives of those interpreters who worked for the british forces in afghanistan well over the years the u.k. has allowed hundreds of interpreters who work for the british army to settle in britain for critics to say that many who want to be eligible for the scheme being denied that chance while the us president joe biden announced the medrol of
9:13 am
american and nato troops a couple of days ago and translators who helped them over the years to say that they will be left to the sea of taliban terrorists who have branded them traitors and legitimate targets z.i.n. again says that many interpreters have been left traumatized. i am regularly in touch with our friend on top of us who are searching for the british army and they were sent to psych in afghanistan and they are not aware of their future they are living in trauma unfair every day not knowing what could happen tomorrow or next day to them so the situation is very risky for them to up with us in afghanistan unless the british government acts quickly on introduces an inclusive scheme that allows all interpreters to relocate to the u.k. the situation will not be resolved a part of the international. missions objective in afghanistan was to secure
9:14 am
europe and american borders from the threat of terrorism so afghans who joined the international forces on war 2010 up with us alongside these forces they are actually the core to the ends of the safety and the security of europe and america leaving them behind these notes are way off moratti on a new month still to come this hour some say you uncovered shots of splattering vaccine right acting in europe the same travel agency offering vaccine by humans to russia will have a closer look right. so
9:15 am
9:16 am
again i french prosecutors have opened a case after the photos of over 20 police officers were plastered on walls in paris suburbs is that the fear is that the policeman's families there may be identified and threatened payal is part of a french police union and say that the stunt was meant as a threat initial report these are blatant threats intended to intimidate police officers were all troubled and concerned for the officers identified their families are worried and were concerned for their families you may think it's the 1st time but it's not the 1st time this has happened to me we've also seen officers being named in other areas it's scary enough that we no longer have boundaries and there are people who name officers families without hesitation and it seems to me that matthew like behavior and intimidation is encroaching into our private lives
9:17 am
because with the police well the instant does come this french will make his path a controversial security bill payne allies in the spread of images of police officers in operations found guilty could face a sentence of up to 5 years in prison and a 75000 euro fine the bill has been slammed by civil rights groups and also n.g.o.s and the french public has been protesting against it for months. wow cool how
9:18 am
however french police do insist the law is needed to protect offices and their families. we try to protect ourselves but it's true there are limits the police have to protect the general population but who defends the police article 24 some things are progressing well but it's not enough we are now waiting for the restrictions to be introduced to soon as possible the alliance police union are demanding that the faces of police officers blurred it's not to hide what happens during the arrest because the police watchdog receives the body cam footage everyone is worried about the police making a mistake we want the police to have their faces blurred to protect officers and their families because as we've seen some people don't hesitate to identify officers wives children their addresses and this is a big problem but we want to avoid it with us have a quick look at some other stories making headlines today starting from chicago
9:19 am

global tourism crippled by the pandemic is scrambling for ways to get travel started again and some agencies are hoping to turn a crisis into an opportunity by offering vaccine vacations with russia among the most popular destinations. today we have around 80 people in moscow who if they want to can be vaccinated tomorrow and fly back on sunday we expect now every week the same quantity so long as the vaccines in jodi escapes. notice that i have no fears because it's a recommended vaccination from the w.h.o. but utah's a good international reputation so from the outset well i have no concerns.

9:22 am
the routing of the country's federal court and it could land the tech giant with a huge find say the strike is fair trade watchdog which had filed the lawsuit declared that the ruling would be a world 1st and said it sends a very clear message to all digital platforms. what the court found was that google misled consumers into thinking that if they turned off location history then that would stop google storing and keeping or collecting and keeping the personally identifiable location data when in fact that was not the case or the judge in the case did prove that some new users were misled during the initial set up process of an android device users were not informed that even if they had the location history button disabled as we heard there activating another tab a called web and app activity would mean that google could still collect their location data it's not the 1st time mr ayling competition regulator and the tech
9:23 am
giants have clashed google along with facebook we're obliged to pay news organizations if their content was posted on their platforms well google has said it may appeal and release the claims by the watch talk with 2 broad it also says to the judge's findings only concerned a narrow class of uses internet nor experts and social media solicitor yeah cohen assess the impact of the ruling. google doesn't care the company's far too big for too monopolistic google doesn't care about reputation because there is no real competition at all there google also doesn't care about a small relatively small financial penalty because it's got plenty of money so the only way we can have google starting to care about this sort of things is by either forcing the company to break up and start creating some real competition or and imposing huge penalties the realities that
9:24 am
now they got caught again the australian court found them guilty of effectively cheating on their own customers. the question is what's going to happen next the question is whether google is likely to be detailed by these finding. joe biden has unveiled a new infrastructure package that's left many people confused in part because it is a mixed bag that contains all sorts of measures that appear to have little to do with infrastructure for example about jobs and also environmental issues but only about a 3rd of americans actually support the bill trying to unpick it all. kind of mocking . joe biden's infrastructure plan is getting a fair amount of criticism polls show the country is pretty divided when it comes to the plan itself but overwhelmingly americans do agree that infrastructure should
