separate severe convulsions after being inoculated. those full body convulsions, tremors, brain fog safely me. i still have not recovered. they returned to rationing people in south africa are forced to cooper essential is after hundreds of shelves are looted. when writers go on the wrong page, no money to buy food for children. no, no, no money to pay the rent. where was things so digging? why do you going to do? no, because that again, they're going to do again. they're going to break it again. ah . 247. you live from the russian capital. this is artsy and welcome to the program. my name's union. at least 133

people are known to have been killed and flipping. that's devastated parts of central europe. entire telephones and villages have been left in ruins. more than a 1000 people are still missing. intense rescue efforts continue our t. peter oliver is on the ground in germany for us devastation thus was being left in the wake of waters. the toll through towns like this one in western germany, leader of the state of nor throwing westfall and number one contender to be next chancellor of germany and lush. it is called the flood a historic disaster countries going through the flooding catastrophe on the historic scale. our mass, how's the waters have started to receive by into something close to their normal levels. you can see the trail of destruction that's being left by the flood that ripped through towns like this one. these old buildings that were in the past

didn't stand much of a chance. the river flows just over my left ton shoulder here, where you can see it only does it destroyed everything is caught there. but on a molten house, just behind me pulling half of the side of the building off in some places in the flooded region, the clean up has been able to start. i was here, i just finished cleaning up stock was about to sit down to enjoy a cup of coffee. when it all started, suddenly the water came flooding him from above and from behind from all sides, i only had time to move away my car and it was all covered and water already. it was quite bad. my son called me last week and he said the basement flooded. we thought, oh okay, there goes to basement. and then a day later, the whole flat was full of water. we had to sit upstairs in the bedroom, and here we are now for a big clean up an all too common fight in towns in this area of the belongings of people out on the side of the street salton from the fluid water that's told

through that how is this? but another common site? things like this cause, tossed around as if they'd been toys. the force in which the water came through these areas really evident in just how much damage you was able to cause and how easily it was able to pick up tons of metal and slow them one side for the flood waters are cruelly indiscriminate. while some places have been utterly destroyed, others have been incredibly lucky just meters away from those places that have been ruined. some houses left pretty much untouched, but they are the ones in the minority. others not so lucky heart mclean can begs home was right in the path of the swollen river to come. and the water came to this level one and a half meters. the water then spilled over with all of the strength of what would have been in the river as well, and headed over towards that house over their food. i've not experienced that in 30

years, living him. it was unbelievable. the water seem to gather itself up in the mountains and then with one big wave come down and hit us here. the st right in front of us turned into white water rapids. just like a river. there were people in the basement were trying to get out, but from inside you could not open the door because of the water pushing against it . this is terrible. we had very good information, but people did not listen. they ignored it and they did not listen to it. we were told that we were going to have pretty bad weather. and from year to year it gets worse. you just have to accept it and respect it. and this was not done. it was dismissed is not a big deal. something that we could handle? no, we did not have it under control. man is so small against nature. here we see it. so many people don't expect people to die in a flood. in germany, you expected maybe in poor countries, but you don't expect to hear sick sludge shows you exactly where the water is

reached. if we come up through this courtyard here, you can see some gas tanks over my right shoulder, 2000 and leases of gas. there, thankfully, the feels on those tanks didn't break because they were picked up and jostled around by the flood waters that came through here. put into perspective a little bit of just how ferocious those waters were over there over my left shoulder, where those washing machines are. they used to be a caravan caravan, is now here inside of the ridge, you can see through the other side of the ridge, the river flows exactly on the other side of the property that its hole in the wood off the side of the, the garbage and told the concrete, as well as it's moved its way through here, a force of nature that's left the trail of destruction. while the human cost is still not being calculated, it's not true disaster when it eventually get thrown,

to calculating the financial cost of what's happened to throw it into the hundreds of millions of euro. if not more, what we are seeing at the moment. those towns like this one completely evacuated because the biggest fear of the authorities is that more rain could see those water levels rise again already weekend buildings. well, they could then be the next ones that end up collapsing. and this is certainly a devastating natural disaster that struck western germany. it's woman isn't over yet. peter, all of a r t in west in germany. a to another, a headline stories today. the economic impact of corona virus has left italy facing its highest poverty levels for 12 years. the numbers are still continuing to grow as well, with masses of people out of work on businesses struggling to survive. we heard from locals in one of the hardest hit regions live until they gave the until

a few years ago, i was an entrepreneur who gave work to 40 families. today i am 60 years old and i feel humiliated. i feel like analogy to us for arms at this age, charity to try to move forward to survive too much of the situation is dramatic. there are people who previously had shops and restaurants now have to close everything they can no longer reopen because they have no more money. many people have turned to charities and their new poor, queuing up trust for food, but a bad situation, your pain, so it is total destruction. it's a situation that is truly frightening. the number of poor people is increased. they line up to ask for food. it is terrifying. they also go to church, his trust for money and alimony. unfortunately, this is the current situation. this is the new reality. but when you know those who had little money already have nothing left and i get it worse and worse. those who did not have a job and already financially struggling now can not even pay their rent. i know

people from this neighborhood who were well off and no back farms have very, but jason, well latest figures show more than 5000000 people in italy now live in absolute poverty. that means they are unable to buy goods or avail of services essential in avoiding grave forms of social exclusion. the category mix up almost 10 percent of the entire population, while another significant number of families live in relative poverty. local authority say it's a desperate situation. we've discovered the new poverty, which is terrible. there are too many new pull people who didn't used to be for having serious psychological consequences. i want to make an appeal. i will keep making the original leadership and the regional administration say yes, sometimes because they keep saying no. i was told by some organizations that they are affected because people who are donating a contribution on to last year, a poor now and seeking a contribution. therefore, there are no doubt that the situation is really complicated. a week economy like

sicily was damaged by cobit or so many people in need. there are we heard from one charity organization in palermo, 6 to help them do what i mean to see. there's an increase of food requests. indeed, man, if i was asking foot all the families asking for shelter because they not have a job anymore, people have started sending emails to requesting aid. for example, one incident the particular struck me was about one couple. they asked for sultan christmas, eep we imagined them like the now the with the family coming and asking for help in these situations we hosted these people in a, b, and b to give them a certain dignity. another incident concerned the child to cold. asking for sultan because his father lost his job in his home. consequently, there are many such incidents were involved in russia and china are undermining trust in western vaccines and the bid to promote their own jobs. that's

the claim being made by the white house, which saves misinformation, is being used to exaggerate the risk of side effects from american and european made shots. but just how based in reality are those allegations kill us open reports. there is a huge anti vax movement in the united states. many americans are simply refusing to get vaccinated for coven 19. so we figured it wouldn't be too long before the white house started pointing, as usual, suspects russia and china has promoted their own vaccines through messaging that undermines western origin vaccine does help development programs. so you know, that is more than just competition about vaccines. the risk and impact there is that this type of information magnifies the risk of potential side effects associated with western vaccines. this is what the, what the information some of this information is doing. it seems like what the white house spokesperson is saying is that reporting on the findings of

u. s. federal agencies is somehow just information because it was the us food and drug administration that came forward and recently warned about the johnson and johnson, single dose, coven, 1900 vaccine. and the fact that it could actually cause gillian bar syndrome, which is an auto immune disorder that attacks the nerves and could result in paralysis. now these cases have been rare, but this is according to the food and drug administration. the u. s. federal government agency now it was officials in denmark who recently suspended the use of the johnson and johnson and astro venica vaccines, citing possible harmful effects. but apparently that's just information even though it came from the danish ministry of health. i'd also worth noting that on this accusation of competition, the main reason that people traveled to russia to get the vaccine was simply because they didn't want to wait for months to be vaccinated. here's what they said

. and he said he, people of my age can. busy lead to be vaccinated after the summer. so very far i decided to make initially 9 most. now when it comes to damaging information about the vaccine to the white house, certainly made quite a few gaff themselves. take a listen. we are quite focused on communicating directly with those people, hence our special guest today about why it's important to get vaccinated. why do you fact scenes are safe? why they can still kill you even if you are under the age of 27. we need to be clear and direct about our messaging. i guess that's what the biden administration consider is to be direct messaging. when most of all cases of severe side effects have been reported from colbert vaccines, the following video is of angeleah. the cell 1st came to global attention after receiving the fight or job in january. a warning you may find some of the following

images distressing. angelie as song shirt, the videos on facebook showing his mother shaking violently in hospital post vaccination. he said she suffered severe convulsions. soon after getting the shot in louisiana. speaking to r t. angeleah said she had no prior significant health issues on claims. the u. s. government that's turning, applying di to people like how do i know that i would have lost the use of my life? so what has been tara law? i never would have taken it. there was never the no informed consent. what so ever about the side effects that i have tried? there was definitely not enough of awareness about hey, just didn't happen. see those full body convulsions, tremors, brain fog has stayed with me. i'm 6 and a half months out now. i still have not recovered. if i do not take diver mccune

daily my symptoms come right back, we are completely brushed aside. and i think that's only because our government is trying to get to heard immunity and they're not going to address us. alright, knowledge until they reach their goal. a vaccination professor of infectious diseases william shelf now believes people must be made aware of all. busy potential side effects to that they can make balance decisions. when you educate the population, you have to tell them all about the benefits of the vaccines. and you must be very clear about the side effects also. so they're not surprised and disappointed. every vaccine in the vaccine that we use has side effects. fortunately, most of the side effects are very brief. they're very mild. they're our occasional

rare, serious side effects. we must know about them and we must be transparent about them . so that the people come forward for receiving the vaccines can make a clear choice. huge twos have formed outside stores. in south africa, the public buying comes after a week of some of the worst violence seen in the country in decades which left hundreds of shops run, sucked and looted. tension exploded over the ceiling of former president jacob, zoom on corruption, charges local, speak of a desperate situation. there is not, i fear stuck. it's finished. i don't know what's going on with my tad. i've got this much live for me. even in my life, i can buy this small thing like this because of this thing. i don't know what's going to do for the next 2 months. we're just trying to see what we can get. what's

needed at home. what we have, i mean, shut off, just follow a cupboard just to keep us going. but it's been a frustrating week due to the planning buying the is a shortage of bread ingredients. people are waiting in the cues for a long while. and it's actually sad to see that some bread trucks have been taken down and red been thrown into the river. there are a lot of people out there, old young, sickly, that battery to get just one loaf of bread. and those stories are heard right throughout the country and hundreds of shops are being destroyed by the looters. some local being forced to arm themselves to defend their business is saying that the police are over run, and others have lost. literally everything wirelessly are reports. and how a family from all of jehovah springs pursed every as has been coping. i'm hearing

and exam to township, which has seen some of the worst violence over the past few days. for soft belonging to 15 brothers from outside the country were destroyed. downstage nothing remained the shot an upstairs where the brother live and store they products. everything had been burned. the brothers were lucky to escape with their lives, but white now the brothers on feeding lucky. 25 years of work and savings gone up in flames. i was doing this on the electronic groceries when you come, when you come to brick, everything that took everything. don't have money to buy food for children. no, no, no money to pay the rent where it was. so digging like what are we going to do now? because we will start again, they're going to do again. they're going to break it again. so where are we going to make a living room and it's going on and what's happened there? and in a closing my child, 7 o'clock,

when i go to my room and i cooking cooking for me, i didn't finish 9 o'clock. people coming here, type bitten my shop and begging to get my talk. my down 500000 sco brittany ditton, my clipping room, and i'm tending a hiding my center one corner people in the building, my room damage, i think dying. some of the brothers were sleeping here with a stock. the loose grabbed everything in sight and as they lift, set the room allies, television sits, electronics, cell phones, clothing, money, and passports. everything has gone. among the torch remains these nothing with salvaging and praying for god god and i held men poor tempted in clouds. only 5 did

not living place. nothing but a mega day. what fun it before the benefits office. i'm now a 1000000. it's nice to set my looking for deal if i did on the skip. in my past, the budget came to south africa from bangladesh, looking for better life. he lost reverberates half way around the world. given me my family's from this part of my family's kind hungry when i'm making money. i eating my eating now. now making money parties losing my family hungry as many south african the riot lasted only a few days, but shops are empty off to being looted. others are boarded up and delivery trucks are refusing to risk bringing in most supplies. so on top of everything, if a more south africans are now going hungry policy or r t,

alexandra some heartbreaking testimony there from a family in south africa. the news continues right off to the break. this is our teachers. ah, ah, me. i will.

i will join me every thursday on the alex silent shore and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics, sport, business and show business. i'll see you then. in the moon. ah, let's start back with the news of the e. u has launched legal action against member states hungry and poland over what it calls discrimination facing the l g b t. community. europe will never allow parks of all sides. it's be stigmatized.

we start legal action against hunger and poland for violations of ponder, mental rights of l, g b t i q people, while several polish regions have adopted last occurring themselves, free of l. g b, t id all jean. furthermore, a war soul is constitutional court has no said to reject decisions by the use court of justice and brussels. how similar troubles with hungry to a new hungary in law bands, depictions of homosexuality in educational materials and tv shows for the under 18. the government has also ordered disclaimers to be put on books featuring gay content, stating that they contain quote behavior inconsistent with the criminal gender rules. and it seems the local authorities receive their laws differently to the european parliament. and the european commission wanted to let the l g, b, t,

q activists, and organizations in schools and kindergarten. hungary does not want that debate is about who decides which way we should be the children. according to the european founding treaties, this question evidently falls under the competence of the hungarian when it is a national competence. g. u law has primacy over national law and all decisions by the european court of justice, including orders for entering measures are binding on member states authorities and national court. some interesting statements are worth or geo political analysts run rough 1st believes that you needs to widen its focus. the question for me also as an observer is why does the youth exclusively react on such as they call trend gression of think that government in the only specific metric field. if we look at other metric fields where government in the european

union have violated law, that you have not seen that trick. for example, when the showing an area of the out of borders were not protected in 2015. no, really, if you read off the, you have the theme government in depth themselves. more than that, you regulation allowed, no reaction in law. we have over 200000 non citizen passport for russian defendants who do not speak well enough. the national language, where the you, who called for by a to the rule of minorities, etc. the might be condemning some of its member states over controversial issues. but at the same time is giving it full backing to others, such as the uranium, which has placed barb wire on its border with bella luce,

and pass tough on t migrant measures. we already to strengthen a level of support in deploy more european standing court office and equipment. we are speeding up and pacing up what was already planned and in close cooperation with leslie went in authorities. we got the pairing. furthermore, a rapid border to venture, and that's the way he is. border is our common external border. i'm from tech spans ready to help when needed. just some of the background into this hundreds of migrants have a legally cost intellectually a from baller recent recent weeks. joining the around $1700.00 people who have already been detained at the border this year. the list of accused bella ru, some deliberately shipping foreign migrants to the border. that's a claim. minsk denies. lithuanian authorities have also permitted the must attention of those migrants limiting their right to appeal. fully use stance on the

issue marks a shift and policy back in 2015 hungry for to find its fences on the borders with croatia. and serbia, claiming that within 2 years, it had help cut the inflow of migrants by almost 100 percent, but brussels condemned, hungry funding, its move racist, and santa phobic. there were also suggestions that the country should be forced out of the block. we discussed the issue with serbian american journalist ned mulch. their carving out an exception for, for wayne ya and it's border wall because it decides to deal with the bellows. it's . they're dealing with the exact theme immigrants even there the carrion billed to the border fence to stop the well, not just people from the middle east, but general things to put it up to stop people from serbia. they put it up to stop the syrians, the rockies, afghans focused on ease of africans and so on who were using that particular route to get into the you. it's who does it as well as whom it is done to. if the move is

aimed against the designated enemies, in this case bella luce, then okay, it's fine whatever. but if it's aimed against the designated victims or designate do gooders. in this case, you know, poor migrants from the 3rd world only coming to realize their basic human rights by getting onto european union welfare. then of course that's horrible, terrible raises the moral etc. the whole point of my right up is that there is no moral consistency except the moral absolutes of who, who will not in the early we can use a shipping off for now, i'll be back at the top with all the latest goings on this. so today i hope you enjoy the we live in an age now where the supply side of the equation is broken. no, we're entering into the supply shocks where there could be microchips, for example,

or basic commodities or sharply. there's a food insecurity now by hundreds of millions of people around the world just emerging over the past 12 months because of its runaway inflation because of the runaway money printing as we've been bank for a few years. so now people are really coming to grips with the fact that reports been right about it. what net, the, the in the was

i'm action return. see i'm, we're going underground. another thing, the stories about awful don't want you to know coming up in the show in a week that fans will racism home against england football as mark as raspberry. because soccer and john sancho is politics the route to eradicate entrenched racism . one of the greatest cricketers of all time michael holding tells us about the power of taking the knee in front of our home secretary, who said black lives matter, protest, dreadful, and ahead of nelson mandela or international days. this week's uprising in south africa evidence that enough is enough for the washington, the liberal experiments forged by man dealer offers campaign of violence, finally brought him to powder and apologized. we talk to, one of his comrades, told us more coming up in today's going underground. but 1st, after england lost the euro 2020 final to italy. in a week, the british fans brought racism home against football as what is kneeling means in his gesture, politics by birth. johnson's home secretary, pretty vitality, cool. the black lives matter protests dreadful is politics.
