me the headlines. this are a chilling effect on media freedom that reaction to a new door proposed by the u. k. government, which could threaten investigative journalist with prison if they expose the state secrets. also, on the latest us democrats party mez, prioritize slashing police budgets. although the same time ramp up spending on their own private security dispos cover up quite literally because no way speech hambleton mis fine for wearing shorts instead of became gotten. we ask upon live guest, it's a rules. sex is well done through this brave we men setup for other sports teams post times they may be didn't just done

is a sexualization of women. ah, what are the good evening just going to clock in moscow? you watching artie international now locked up for reporting the truth studies the fate facing journalists. if a proposed british law is passed reporters and the sources could be treated like spies and publishing government secrets could see the child for up to 14 years. he's murdered gas t f has more in the story. a journalists can do as much harm to britain as a foreign spot to argues the british government in this 66 page proposal, which erases the line between investigative journalism whistle. blowing and spies are all the same under the proposed new secret law. although there are differences
1:02 pm
in the mechanics of and motivations behind espionage and on authorized disclosure offenses, there are cases where an authorized disclosure maybe as or more serious in terms of intent and or damage. what's more, the legislation seeks to remove without blow protections, even if what they leaked is in the public interest. and stead it advisors would be whistleblowers to, to go and talk to their boss if they have a moral issue with something that they're doing rather than reveal it to the public that the government is engaged in something immoral or illegal trays is an interesting question. what if it's their boss that's doing something immoral like the health secretary and leaked video kissing a coworker off to he'd obliged millions to abide by his soon strict social distancing measures. i understand the enormous sacrifices that everybody in this country has made but you have made. and those of us who make these rules have
1:03 pm
got to stick by them. and that's why i've got to resign. officially. this new beefed up version of the secrecy. lou has nothing to do with the resignation of hancock officially, but it would have made the scandal very nearly impossible. see any journalist who shared this video shared anything that they received problem with blue, couldn't see the sentence of more than a decade behind bars. due to the new way of defining espionage, including obtaining sensitive information, as well as pass it on journalists, whom are simply working. their stories can potentially face up to 14 years in prison by receiving some secret information. there's much more to it. aside from the harsh sentences and the least and the data bases of potential threats, there are special powers that the government wants to give itself the power to punish and restrict individuals,
1:04 pm
be the journalists or foreign spies. if the government doesn't have enough evidence to jail them, there may be a strong intelligence case to suggest as an individual is engage in hostile activity, but limited evidence that could be openly used to support criminal prosecution. the civil order could include a range of restrictive and preventative measures, including measures to prevent an individual associating with certain people or from visiting specified sensitive locations. currently, these proposals are being polished off at the foreign office but could soon be in parliament let make no mistake. these, these new secret law would give the most authoriz area and regimes in the world a run for their money. in the past, we feel blowing and investigative journalism, as we know within the u. k, are dead. this is one of the biggest wide ranging attacks on chris freedom. perhaps since since democracy came to britain,
1:05 pm
the definitions in the report are very old indeed. in fact, with journalism doesn't come up once in the $66.00 page report itself fundamental to the $56.00 page report, journalists can be more dangerous than spawn. obviously, the u. s. is prosecuting fe juanita signs on that. as being jack. this secretary, secretary is backing a consultation document that suggests that journalists that much worse than spies supplies after all, can work for one government or another government or one actor jones. if they publish the material, everyone can see it. so journalists have to be done. that is, is the level of logic and deduction that is being used here by the british government in raising freedoms and rights of the free press here in this country that have been that have been created and modified over centuries. so that's, that's quite how dangerous the official secrets act reform looks to be. not me mon,
1:06 pm
across the atlantic, the u. s. secretary estate there has been accused if a poke receive when it comes to journalism he wants, we can expand during the songs to face trial for publishing american state secrets the same time says he supports the work of reporters around the world. the upshot of the ongoing trump by the prosecution of julian sons in the united states, believes old jordan louis, whatever the nationality, wherever they are, have a legal duty to keep the u. s. government dirty secrets. now, i'm sorry, but that's not support. enjoy unless every us media outlets at landber's this comment and reference assange, but they won't, because they suck messiah alina. john has received hundreds of thousands of dollars from us government propaganda, oregon voice of america, to agitate for regime change in iran, in the bizarre logic of us empire. she's an independent journalist, andrew and assange is a criminal billing can supposed to come in support of an iranian american
1:07 pm
journalist and host the voice of america. she is a nice spoken critic of tron. and last week said she was the target of a kidnapping plot by iranian intelligence that was foiled by the f b. i. and we, while journalist quickly found that even sanchez spent more than 2 years in the maximum security prison in london, the u. s. justice department has changed, charged him under the espionage act, accusing him of leaking classified information in 2010 and it takes to die to to america. he does face up to a 175 years behind bars. well, we discussed sonya situation with author daniel. its are the things that no, no reporter is safe. every american journalist will be under threat. i mean, it's a, it's a, the prosecution of a sizes, a dagger aimed at the heart of us journalism. and that's what the, by the ministration is doing. and that's what antony blanca stands for. if the
1:08 pm
prosecution goes forward, the every journalist will be threatened with a similar legal charges. and espionage is a very dangerous thing. espionage guy could land you a life sentence and a maximum security prison. so that will definitely have a most serious shilling effect america as a country that has completely lost the ability to engage in any kind of self criticism whatsoever. it's a, it's a global viewpoint, is distorted by a narcissistic pers national personality on the part of the political lead which sees everything through a pro u. s. land. the u. s. is always. busy right, everybody else is always wrong. so the u. s. never persecutes journalists on the other countries to do. but the reality is quite different. america re suffering an unprecedented wave of violence. my shootings and murders
1:09 pm
with homicides up 15 percent from last year alone is coincided with a huge cut in police budgets backed by democratic party mares over claims that the force is suffering from systemic racism. those same officials are also increasing spending on their own police protection. walking reports, one of the causes democrats appeared to be most passionate about last year. the fun to the police, many actual suburbs, suburbs have essentially already begun pursuing a de, funding up the police in that they fund school based on housing. and they for health care more as their number one priority in many cities in america, over one 3rd of their city budget goes to police. so we have to have this conversation. what are we doing? we meet completely, the not told me was police department, but some democratic mares around the country seemed to have mixed feelings. while they did cut the police budget, they certainly did not have
1:10 pm
a problem splashing cash on their own personal protection. in 25 major us cities, officials have proposed cutting or in 20 cases already caught police budgets. however, what open the books dot com auditors found was it may as and city officials still enjoy personal protection of a dedicated police detail costing taxpayers millions of dollars. let's compare and contrast baltimore mayor shopped a huge chunk off in his police force is spending. we can re allocate funding, making efficiencies in our police department. but he was more than happy to allocate $3600000.00 to his personal protection in 2020, the san francisco mayor brown and even bigger cuts. eric are said he and i was one of the 1st to say i'm going to redirect reef funding from the police department to programs and the african american community. i instantly i would like to do that. she also gave herself an even bigger budget for her personal guard,
1:11 pm
a cool 12000000. now in chicago, the force was slashed all while its ability to insure safety with question. we can't rely upon the police to provide public safety at the same time, not just the mayor of chicago, but unnamed city officials felt pretty safe in the windy city. they had 7, a $1000000.00 allocated for just that. and here's new york city mayor build diblasio. we will be moving funding from the new p b to youth initiatives and social services. still, he was perfectly fine travelling around the country on a presidential campaign with a security detail that costs $350000.00. now these democratic mayers may feel safe and snug, but a lot of the people they serve don't as violence and crime source. it's so bad that when you look at the recent numbers, more people are dying of gun violence. then of course
1:12 pm
the the the, the, when people think of defining the police, you're going to be taking away training programs. community programs that are police related and the crime is going to go up. it's paramount that our residents, our business owners, are visitors to the cities are the ones who are protected more than the politicians . so it's, it's a slap in the face to the voting base who voted these elected officials in to see their police being the funded, or the, the proposition for them to be funded. but then the privatized boosted the security
1:13 pm
being bolstered around them. that's hypocrisy. and it's nauseating, only seems to happen in democrat runs cities, the violence, the, the police to funding the, the misled, misguided public that is lied to by the politicians. this only seems to be an epidemic that's happening in the democrats, cities and the numbers. the numbers prove it defined, the police may sound like a great slogan, but it seems to have been a decision made in the heap of the moment. because judging by their own action, that seems like the personal protection of many mares is something they don't want to cut back on anytime soon. sadly, i think it's dumb. i think it goes back to the political theatre and they, the politicians, think of the, the citizens that they represent. we're lucky them, the 1st place. they're not going to be catching on to this apocryphal. it's just getting bad. it's getting worse. it's, it's an ideology that's strictly among the, the liberal democrats, as you could see me in the cities. and it's just bad. it's nothing more than political theatre as methods arrive, there are voting based, rally brown,
1:14 pm
the more not as i rage in the world of sport. the moment after norway speech hambleton mis find the choosing to wear shorts instead of bikini bottoms. and the championship match the punishment to spark furious reaction and claims of sexism. this is completely ridiculous. how many attitude changes are needed in the old fashioned matcher? world of international sport? oh my god. the worst thing is that they just do not understand the quality point once. is that even possible? can you please stop the 4th beginning nonsense at your beach handbook games? it's embarrassing, disgraceful and sexist. your routing buses, port and your own reputation, make the international handball, federation officials where bikini bottoms for a week. the rules will be changed quickly. why do you force women to pe, be hands born outfits that sexually objectify and expose them?
1:15 pm
come back to the 21st century and immediately bali should they sell dated rules? well, the rules do allow male players to wear shorts, but not females, although federation spokesperson did admit that she herself did not know the reason for this, but insisted that this is she was not a priority ahead of the olympics. no way has campaigned against the rule for 15 years, and the teens wearing assures, is a deliberate protest. it's not the 1st time no sports where as course control vesee early this year, volleyball team. so the tournament and cattle were told to cover up and what became east shirts and trousers, although after protests, authorities back down on that one. and then this summer's lympics in tokyo swim is currently banned from wearing special caps designed for people with afro hair styles. although that rule is being reviewed off for a backlash and last week and double powered and pick will champion express disgust after an official complaint that her sprint briefs were actually too short. my
1:16 pm
colleague, re sing shy, discuss the rights of athletes with a panel of guests. they should give them the money back and say, forget the whole thing. we're going to exercise a bit of common sense flexibility and get in sync with design guys. it's only just over 1516 years ago that then president of p for soccer's governing organization. ready sat black with encouraging female football as to a time skimpy clothes because he felt that it would make them more marketable. this is almost unthinkable to ask a women, a serious women sport contests to abide by laws. the rules that were doing some time ago when they weren't offensive, it's 2021, isn't it time that women were allowed to wear shorts instead of bikinis in sport insurance at this time, petition were well aware of the rules you call have a duration where one of the same abuse is the role is because i remember
1:17 pm
a precedent for all other schools. if you're going to data sort of thing you got to calibration with seems it seems those are the full web in this chain. sure. can highly perverse challenge. we need scenario, how many opportunities actually won't change as well rule when they're stupid, like this rule, that can be not abide and actually well done to this brave women. but finally, they showed the sexism in their federation. have to stop the thinking that women's bodies are for the show and they have something sexual with them. so of course, it's a problem to have a bikini, you know how much you have to move when you play football. the key can as well, you can show more than you want to show. what do you think is but you should definitely not because you suffer past and such are passive and for other sports
1:18 pm
teams say post funds and then pines funds research. they may be different stunt. maybe it's not a study. i don't think it's, it's done. i just think it's some bureaucrat, he's laying the law down to the fine print. they've got to read. the news is a sexualization of women. whether they say it is or not is irrelevant, is if you demand of a woman that she dresses in a bikini rather than sport scare, then that is only one way to interpret that. and it's almost what it is preposterous now. almost. it actually is preposterous to try to impose this perverse dress code on women in the 21st century was concerned. that is all the path for the pool. women's chains complain does that mean? but the rest of the famous are quite happy. why the bikini bottoms baby at the
1:19 pm
atmosphere and playing in that they find it more comfortable to where it became the boss or did we ever go to know maybe other women and we watch more. you know, football players, if they play with a tight, you know, short so they show their chest. no, of course not. we wanted the eclipse to be comfortable with their plane. we want them to perform at their best island, and it is a crying foul off for a huge number of performances were cancelled due to cobra quarantine rules and clean the stage. the west end studies despite england so called reopening that was meant to see months of restrictions lifted. reporting now from the u. k. his martin andries it was meant to be the ground reopening with social distance thing and mosques out and see it says back to full capacity but it's already cut down to several theater productions this week. thanks to the m h s truck and trace scheme over it doesn't shows in the west end across the country . i've been forced to shop because the numbers have tested positive towards the i.
1:20 pm
so they've all been seen by the cobra. fucking, our government has absolutely messed up all of a 1000 and various jobs and have done nothing for the for the last 2 years. they claim to have done with the cultural recovery funds that there's only available to very few people. it doesn't mean the whole of everything and it also includes museums. they've done absolutely nothing. and it just seems incredibly unfair. that supermarket can stay open and people have to close because of an arbitrary ping. the 10 day isolation rule is set to remain until the middle of august. that's when those double jobs can don't get, even if they're in close contact with a coven case. but while most businesses can cover those often, now theater is unique. more costs and limited numbers are under cities mean it's just a couple of people are told to isolate the show has to close. there's also another unique policy to theaters if one member of the company test positive the whole production company must isolate, to feel that the government is completely picking on face all the time. and if you
1:21 pm
look at something like football matches, we can have many thousands of people there. if you look at everything that happened there, but there's a year and final thousands and thousands of people in close contact with us. and faith of good didn't give a looking at all the fact that you can have all the people that wimbledon you can have. just you have loads of people, but the theater, you just can't have anyone at all. well, the news editor of britain's leading entertainment newspaper does say when it comes to their industry, the rules simply don't work. it's very difficult situation is i'm going to have to see people testing negative stuff that i'm unable to work for 10 days is just really produces are very good at finding ways around things, but is costing them money time and having to reset or cold or a hassle is, is very difficult to have proved to be very se patients to be very, very certain measure them and they can to make sure that the car so what i'm saying is a crowd scattering might be very hard to
1:22 pm
understand what is treated the same credit given the money, we say bring it in extreme radiation, right? okay, well let me show you some dramatic pictures now because devastating floods and central china have killed dozens and forced a quarter of a 1000000 from their homes. whole stream service city, in particular, were turned into rivers. authorities are ramping up, rescue and recovery operations, and many people still reported missing. now here on this map, you can see the worst hit region anim province, which is highlighted in red fi. it is, its largest city is on the yellow river, the banks of which of birth and full cost is a predicting more grim days to come to with a typhoon expected to hit coastal regions that are mark that in yellow. now among them is the city of shanghai. from there is a reporter for, for chinese, c g
