2:01 pm
i just after 9 at night here in the russian capital, great of your company. my name's union o'neill, our top story. and manual micron got a nasty shock today during a visit to this side of france, where he's trying to drum up support for his pre election campaign. he walked up to a barrier to grief locals. this is what happened next. the group well, 2 men were being arrested following that assault on president macro. and it's the 1st time that you've been physically assaulted since becoming president, that happens in the south of france,
2:02 pm
city of valencia. and as you saw in that video, present mike on exits the hotel school where he's been taking a visit. he walked towards a crowd of people who are all behind the battle barrier. then present. michael puts his hand on a man's on the man and grabs back president michael and before administering that on my feet, slap the security agency immediately intervened. in 2 individuals were taken into custody for willful violence against the person holding public authority. now that's an offensive take him pretty seriously here in france, and could see somebody put in jail for up to 3 years as well as paying a fine, a 45000 years. but of course, that would be up for a judge to decide how lenient they may wish to be. and of course, for an individual to be found guilty of the offense. there's been a huge reaction hearing from including coming from the government, the prime minister, showing caustics, saying that this was an attack on democracy. democracy is debate,
2:03 pm
dialogue is confrontation, the expression of legitimate disagreements, but it can in no way be violence, verbal, aggression, and even less physical aggression. we are all concerned, it is the foundations of our democracy through the head of states. it is democracy that is targeted. also, we have heard from a political policy from across the political spectrum with opposition leaders pretty much on the same page. a very rare hearing from all saying that this is simply unacceptable. while democratic debate can bitter, it can never tolerate physical violence. i strongly condemn the unacceptable physical aggression target in the president of the republic. this time, are you starting to understand that violent people are taking action? i stand in solidarity with the president. well, president, marconi is currently on the top from says it's been cold, he's taking the temperature, testing it to see whether or not he should be running in next is presidential
2:04 pm
election. he hasn't officially said he's going to, but the idea that he's making this visit is seen as many as a pre election tool. and you might have caught just the end of that video, somebody shouting down with macro ism and there is a suggestion that the individuals behind this assault on the president or yellow vest involved and unauthorized process earlier in the day. but the reality is, what this is shown is that there is still an under current to present to and again president michael and his policies. those have been passed the reform as well as those he's attempted to pass to the front of the house and managed to do so. always hot water them down slightly and it seems as we get closer and closer to the election, we like to see more of that resentment coming through. but for the moment in from present my phone associate with 2 individuals in the south of france now under
2:05 pm
arrest, the wound for violence against the person holding public authority. the days of small e u. country standing up to the big players could soon be over. germany's foreign minister wants to silence the dissenting voices of the likes of hungry by abolishing vito powers. we cannot let veto be used to paralyze european foreign policy and hold us hostage. those who do that are playing with europe's cohesion in the short and long term. that's why we must say openly the veto moscow . even if that means that we ourselves can be out voted, i remain confident that the subject to the majority decision will take center stage during discussions at the conference on the future of europe. while the german foreign minister hagen must didn't mention any you meant the states by name when saying that the veto was being misused and should be banned. it's pretty clear who he was talking about. we can extract police as well from statements we've heard
2:06 pm
from mr. mass in the past, as well as tweets made by senior figures within his foreign ministry. this is directed firmly towards hungry, budapest, and prime minister of hungry victor or bond. the reason is stating victor all bonds being too over zealous when it comes to the use of this v. so hungry use the veto just last week to stop a joint statement on hong kong. they've done something similar back in april as well. and just recently, budapest, nick's the another statement from the european union, calling for a a ceasefire in hostilities between palestinians and the state of israel. we've also seen poland and hungary team up to delay the signing the ratification of the, the new budget just last year. now, what's the response to this from hungary has been as well. victor oberon, the gary in prime minister,
2:07 pm
is far from happy with german foreign minister hiker muss the european left lead by the german left. as once again the tracking hungry in an outrageous tone. this time on the basis that our country wasn't willing to sign a joint declaration on hong kong that lacked any political weight and seriousness whatsoever. we will exercise our. it's guaranteed by the european union's founding treaties when it comes to things like tax budgets and foreign policy, the european union has to be marching in lock step, meeting all $27.00 nations. have to agree to any statements already. moves concerning the big things. what this move would do would be to get rid of that. and in the past, what we've seen is these, this be so being used as leverage. basically you've seen one country go, i'm not signing that until my, if you that is most pressing to me has been signed. what this would do that hiker masters talking about is almost certainly it would speed up the decision making
2:08 pm
processes. but it would get rid of perhaps some of the say that small nations have in the european union. another thing that's worth noting, in order to get what mr. mass would like, it would require all 27 member states to sign off on getting rid of the v t. so, and if you listen, see what victor all been and hungry has to say just to her to what mr. muff proposed. we can see that happening anytime soon. life spoke with political and communications consultant damian wilson, he thinks scrubbing e u. v to powers would be damaging further block, smaller states. i think it's a very useful device for the smaller nations because without it, it's the, the large notions like germany, like france will just bully the small nations into doing whatever they want. every nation within that, the $27.00 nations left have their own history, have their own problems, have their own outlooks on, on the wider world. they should be allowed to keep those without being forced into
2:09 pm
a corner or broad, and bullied by, by the lodge relations. the problem with the use is really desperately wants to be seen as of one united voice that speaks on the world stage. you see that they've been invited to to the g 7 meeting in the u. k this week, but they're not one of the 7. they're, they're a plus one, so they're really on the outside on the fringes of it, and annoyed them that they can't get that united voice and, and be given the presence in the end that the, the limelight that they think they deserve. this next story is getting a lot of people talking to a quality activists in the u. s. have found a new way to get rich by telling white women how races they are. they are organizing special dinners, where they're host, call for large sums of money for the privilege of being lectured ortiz. dmitri polk can tell us more on this episode of things crazy people do,
2:10 pm
white liberal women line up to pay $5000.00 for a dinner, where 2 women of color berate them on how races they are. sounds like a lot of fun. now i'm sure some of you are confused by the concept or how something like this came to be. so here it is. it's all organized by 2 people, regina jackson, who was black and say, you're a row who identifies as indian american. if you're wondering what kind of people, jackson and row are, well, here's a few quotes. we all know about white women's tears. it has caused the tears of 100, maybe even thousands of black people, and it's de la weapon. white people would rather die than tell the truth about white supremacy racism and the role in both. yeah. a lovely bunch. anyway, once upon a time they got into an argument about race with a white friend over dinner. much to their surprise, a few months later, the woman they had the argument with said she actually enjoyed it and asked for another dishing out and promised to call some other white women to the party.
2:11 pm
essentially, that's how race to dinner was started. the format of the dinner goes like this, a group of white women pay $5000.00 for the event, which is hosted at one of their houses. once they're done counting their piles of cash, jackson in row, dig into the attendees, trying to uncover their subconscious racism with questions like how are you racist? what's a race this thing or thought you've done recently? if a woman doesn't have an answer, according to ro, well that's just typical racist behavior. all of this is done in the most aggressive manner possible, meant to quote, shatter white fragility, but tears an outrage at these events are strictly prohibited. it does all sound a bit masochistic, but pay there is no accounting for taste. white women love dinner parties more than anything. if they're safe space to talk about how much they hate their husbands, how their kids are super annoying. how crazy busy they are. the latest school
2:12 pm
auction, they're raising money for, you turned to place where they typically unleashed their entire c whiteness into somewhere where you can actually have safe, not shameful conversations around racism. having started this back in 2019, jackson and ral, have since expanded the premise. i guess they grew tired of just braiding self loathing, progressive white women. so now they're telling them how to carried the lesson and white fragility even further and make a change at the events are no longer limited to dinner. so now they have breakfast, lunch, cocktails, and even brunch all popular past times of privileged white females. naturally, the internet has had a field day with the story. ah, it's unclear if these masochistic self flagellation dinners will ever actually lead
2:13 pm
to any change in society, let alone a good one. but one thing for sure. as long this progressive white women feel they are unconsciously racist. jackson and ro might never again have to pay for a meal. i think it's ironic and elitist that they will pay, that they will pay $5000.00 in order in order to learn how recent they are. what kind of experience birches signaling and i really truly believe it's just another way of people, the fencing with their white gill, the crazy thing i've ever read. and i don't think that that actually does the trick that you actually learn anything by doing that. it feels like these 2 women that are in charge of the dinner. it feels like it almost feels like a game of some sort that they're playing on the white women when i really think
2:14 pm
it's going on here, is that these women are really capitalizing on the white gill of the wealthy. not only making our feelings know and there, and while some are cashing in on a video of an american father, daughter, ju, speaking, it's against idea known as critical race theory has gone viral on social media. it comes amid an ongoing debate in the us about the role of c, r t and a whole faction of areas including education and politics. it doesn't matter if you're black or white or any doesn't matter if you're black or white. brown. yeah. right. black in how we treat people is based on who they are. and if they're nice, see this is, this is our choosing. think right here, critical race theory wants to in. now we, my children are not going to happen. and it has struck a chord. the video is clocked up some 2000000 views on twitter. the theory itself was put forward 40 years ago and essentially suggest that racism is systematic
2:15 pm
within society. c r t has been widely criticized with many calling for a bond on its teaching in schools. earlier i spoke to the mom in the video. i just think people are waking up to what's going on in the vision that's been going on. and i think people are tired, man, their teachers that are tar, that are writing me. people going up to school boards now? yeah, i think people want to stand up because they see that they're trying to brainwash our children into seeing each other for the color they are and not the character that they are. how would you describe corey, why critical race theory as proof? so devices i would say when you tell any group of people that their whole pressures, because of the color of their skin and you tell the other group that they are a pressed because of the color and they're seeing, you're going to find push back. you are going to see people standing up. we know
2:16 pm
what martin luther king said, right just by the content of our cares and the color of our scheme. and when we see people trying to implement that into our schools, on to our children, you're going to see pushback. you haven't held back talking, but black lives matter either. you said the movement is for the destruction of america under families. can you just open up and why did you say that? well, the co founder said she was a marxist. so we know what marxism leave to. that is communism that socialism. so for me and for america, that's not what we're about. london's grunfeld tower. as back in the news, we ask why after this ah
2:17 pm
ah ah ah, i use so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy plantation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful,
2:18 pm
very critical of time. time to sit down and talk the 15 minutes into the program. welcome back. we start back in the u. k. were activists are advising foreign property investors to steer clear of britain. they warn developers are selling unsafe real estate covered in the type of clubbing that led to the grenville howard trudge the often they say, such coverings are either worthless or come with a host of hidden costs related to the safety. we spoke to ben fox. ben is the creator of an online map of so name, problem properties, the u. k. as of now, none of the building and none of the lease holds particularly new builds can be trusted to be purchased. because when i find in the range of buildings that
2:19 pm
ah, unsafe, have issues and ultimately except the 8th of the u. s. one ratings on our valued pounds. you know, they can't be sold again. so we want people's particularly from overseas, tend to be very careful with buy in buildings, especially from the major developers, are still marketing overseas. the clubbing scandal received worldwide attention when grunfeld tower in london went up in flames. back in 2017. the fire, which started from a fridge, freezer on the 4th floor spread rapidly because of the clouding. it took almost an entire day for a whole host of firefighters to contain the blades with $72.00 people losing their lives. ortiz shabby edwards dusty looks and how the government is moving forward. almost 4 years on from the grunfeld tower tragedy. the government is still trying
2:20 pm
to learn from mistakes, especially as thousands of homes across the country are still covered in the very same material. grunfeld was the deadline to apply for funding to remove the closing, but already many of how to fit the bill themselves to keep that home safe after grandchild. in june 2018, we will immediately had to pay for waking watches were still paying for waking watches. so now you know, our service charges have you know, skyrocket. we are facing another bill of so far. the seas around $33000.00 to remove the planning. but i think it's more we are really, really struggling. i'm a pensioner. i'm 76 and all my savings for now, and i can find work students append to meet the 1st phase of the public inquiry into the grunfeld tower tragedy that came the lives of 72,
2:21 pm
found the having was the principal reason for the rapid spread of the fire, but to give you an idea of the scale of the ongoing crisis currently around full point, $6000000.00 flap is still considered dangerous due to the material on them. also making them on sellable. and while the government has agreed to crop up 5000000000 pounds, that's only a 3rd of what's actually needed. and a legal amendment protecting homeowners from half the bills was voted down by the conservatives in april. we have demonstrated, certainly have been to, you know, we are in talks with the bill barret to build up have we, you know, what these properties in? good faith, have to foot the bill. we have been to m p. 's and even the opposition leader tried to, you know, put forward a bill to chased of these whole loss. but of course the conservatives
2:22 pm
voted it down. so we're back to square one. the government insists residence being shielded from those call. building safety remains the responsibility of the building owner and they must take swift action to remediate safety issues without putting on costs to leaseholders. our priority is making sure residents are safe in their homes as quickly as possible, and we are doing everything in our power to ensure that remediation work backed by government funding is completed to the highest standard. but none of this is stop the government from taking out foreign investors and selling off those dangerous building. unsurprisingly, then closing outrage among those effected i did a bit of research. i couldn't find any project that kind of shows you how many buildings across the u. k. over my or anything like that. and i would quite confirmed that this information wasn't publicly available. you know, you might get to build in that hasn't got threats and yet monte, by the rhetoric can change and you will be liable for the costs. besides breaks in
2:23 pm
man that we now pay 61000 pounds a week 424752 12. certainly not in the interest of the british economy in regards to obviously the buyers, if they see maybe one or 2 buildings that have the issue, they will think it's ok. i will be safe with a new bill, if we can prove from our math that people are registered and build into our new builds. you know, they are all over the country. they are different heights different edges. we are proven that this is a nationwide problem per 4 years on from the grunfeld tower tragedy. and still thousands of people are going to bed at night scared if another tragedy is simply waiting for hudson. chuck edwards dusty, all the london western european countries are reportedly accusing greece of failing to hold onto the migrants,
2:24 pm
arriving on its shores. 6 nations led by france and germany have reportedly written to the european commission. they said, after being granted asylum in greece, thousands of refugees are then heading north and filing, 2nd reclaims, in richer countries. germany, for example, has apparently received 17000 such applications since last summer. the joint letters said the problem is partly done to greece failing to provide adequate conditions for refugees and allocation. nothing in ice. some national chords consider that greece is not assuring that these persons i give him suitable accommodation and provided with a minimum level of physical subsistence. grace is fully compliant with his obligations regarding border control, registration of regular rivals, reception, asylum process and integration programs. and it's not responsible for any regular secondary floats. keeping illegal migrants out of the
2:25 pm
e. u is partly the jobs from tex. the agency charged with securing the external border. but according to the european court of auditors, it's failing to do its job. a maltese former government minister, the chief auditor of the report, said the problems getting worse from texas, presently, not discharging that due to the effect of when we found that this is even more wiring to tie. one front tech's has been given, added responsibilities from tech has responded to those claims. it's released. the statements seeing the agency is undergoing a must have transformation that would have challenge to any organization, but is aware that improvements are delighted to welcome onto the program. now notice marielle notice is a member of the european parliament for greece. welcome to you. i think that could be news to many what we've just been going through there. when a person receives asylum in greece,
2:26 pm
do they have the legal right to then go and make another application and say germany or the netherlands? most of all they have arrived said to move freely within the 2nd area for abusive, 90 days, for purposes of love to watch many asylum signals that they will read the because they can get their benefits from greece. they go to germany and other countries and it's up to jet minute to find them and if they stay more than 90 days so they can deport them back to race. it's not the problem for great. the problem is that there are some gentlemen course that's accepted, that those people that have been granted asylum from greece. they have the right to apply the 2nd 2nd time before what i saw in germany. but this is a decision by the gentleman quotes. and this has nothing to do with. and
2:27 pm
furthermore, you should take into account that the francis gentleman in the netherlands and go to belgium. they were obliged to go out by the, by the location system. they had to get people with the location system. but said, gentlemen, you got so only 40 percent of the panels of the people that they were obliged to. france is only 25 percent. so this can't, that is why you are late. they are you being to the compulsory relocation system? well, i'll just say what they're actually saying, the countries that pen not letter notice, as you mentioned, most of them there and to the european commission, their st. greece is failing to provide adequate housing and support for its refugees. and that's why they're heading north. what would your response be to that? there are 3 issues. first of all, when we, when we have the occasion for asylum,
2:28 pm
greece is given up on one basis to those people. and they give them houses and set that up. but to after this, people get the status of the asylum, then they are not they don't get any support because the, this is what religiously says. in any case, a grace is also too special programs. and even for those people who have got their starters as asylum, they get to school accommodation in greece and there are 2 programs called the son program, a n c a program. ok, i think i think we thought, you know, no big issues. it's the problem with france and germany to find those people and send them back if they can violated the 2nd rules and they stay more than 3 months . we don't money or i then by the corpse. let me just let me just bring up another
2:29 pm
part. notice because we're just running at a time from tex the, the credit and being leveled to them. they're supposed to be helping greece secure it's border, aren't they? how much help are you actually getting from them while there are people from, from big so that's it. working great in the case of the island of sub was, there are 2 boats from the deadman course and they are there. so they, they tried to do their job, but unfortunately, the weekend when you got in some of the other islands. so if they think that's from that she's not doing the job, but it's a problem of the of you it's, that's not the problem of grace. well, let me just point out as well, from texas 10000 officers and a budget that set to rise to almost a 1000000000 euro by 2027. i appreciate that. there's a lot of people coming, but to be so overstretched, that's a lot of questions, isn't there?
2:30 pm
yeah, of course. you have to take it down that the front desk says it's so it's offices in warsaw. poland is not receiving a single asylum seeker. that's, that's an issue with your grades also. and i think that many people waiting for working for frantic rubbing says should the, again, should make, if you should do its job better. but the information of the european union that gave from dixie, it's not the initial bridge right to protect its own borders. and we try very hard . and it's a problem with turkey. becky is allowing thousands of immigrants in the in greece either to the islands or also to the mainland, which is from the north of borders. 1 point, one point of view is the front. they should have the right to buy.
