8:00 am
that industry has been influencing very deeply. the medical and scientific establishment, ah, what's driving the obesity epidemic? it's corporate. mm. the, this weekend protested clash with police and central pirates with water cat implied angry demonstrators. thousands have been rallying nationwide against government plans to make cobit parts is mandatory in public places as infections rise. looking back to some of the other big stories we brought even the past week, a chilling effect on media freedom. and it's a reaction to a dropped british law, which could threaten investigative journalists with prison if they expose state secrets plus the

devastation in china from what's being called the worst flooding in a 1000 years, with dozens of deaths infrastructure wiped out, and dams breached on severe weather elsewhere to a grave systemic failure, the german government slammed for not doing more to prevent last week's deadly flooding. despite previous mornings, the devastations claimed almost 200 lives and caused damage with billions of euros . ah, hello, good to happy with. it's this sunday is the weekly from are things that we're going to take you through some of the biggest stores we've been reporting on here. over the past 7 days, we've got the weekends developments to bring it up to speed on 1st. so paris, police, fire, water, canada, people protesting against plans for mandatory health passes in france, thousands gathered in the capital to vent their frustrations over coven restrictions. i use
8:02 am
me the. we've had figures from the ministry of the interior that said there were a 161000 individuals who decided to send onto the streets to protest these new restrictions left and thousands of those were here in paris where you saw those tensions with that water cannon, they find that the protesters also kick as being used. so i just wanna explain a little bit about what the health passes. this is something this all ready in use has been you since wednesday. and basically, what it means is places like cultural center, so museums at the moment, if there were more than 50 individuals inside, then to get inside you have to show you fully vaccinated against cobra 19. or that
8:03 am
you have got a negative p. c all and teach in test and what the parliament is doing at the moment is looking at the bill that's expected to be passed this weekend, which will extend that restriction. now the minutes for labor has also given them in to be saving. so not only will those individuals want to access bars, catholic restaurants means the house pass. so to will the workers also establishment. and if they are not in compliance with that, they could be suspended without pay. they will not be able to remain to avoid having to go straight to dismiss. so we are creating a new procedure for suspending the employment contract without remuneration and ended as soon as the employee comply. so early, what people furious about the fact that just a few months ago, present macro and had said that they would be no introduction of an obligatory house pulse. and that's exactly now what's happening. but also they feel that the
8:04 am
id, the allure is going to be amended to be able to suspend employees without the right to any pay has really made them to cease to whole resume. it's a cinema. these employees can be dismissed if they do not have health path, either an anti gen test or both components of the vaccination needed, and the letter of which should have been administered during the week before. to me, this is completely unacceptable. what is happening in france right now is absolutely unbelievable. 2 years ago, we could not have imagined this at the moment. we are in a situation where people want to go to work and they are told if you can't, because you haven't been vaccinated. and this is despite the fact that for many years, we have lived more or less on the principle of freedom, equality and fraternity. and now it's all over the government. so this is what it believe is the way forward, tackles because it pandemic, because from now, the government says is in the middle of
8:05 am
a food wave of that. and it's saying that it needs to ramp up the number of vaccinations. we know that health workers will need to be fascinated by the middle september. they will be able to work, and again, there are still many people vaccinated people as well that i've spoken to who say that this is about the freedom, the right of individuals to choose what happens to their bodies fallen pushback elsewhere in europe. 2 against those ongoing cobit policies, the in greece thousands are reposing a mandatory vaccination program, which has been introduced to some groups including health workers, protest reportedly used petrol bombs during the unrest. it comes just by 45 percent of the population already being inoculated against corona virus. the british capital is also seen a mass demonstration under the slogan, worldwide rally for freedom. but not everyone share the same message. scuffles
8:06 am
broke out between the campaigners themselves. protest was held just days off, the major covered restrictions were lifted. they're locked up for reporting the fates facing journalists in britain. f. a draft law goes through reporters on their sources. could be treated like spies and publishing government secrets could see them jailed for up to 14 years. off the senior correspondent has the story. a journalists can do as much harm to britain as a foreign spot threw 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 in the mechanics of and motivations behind espionage and on authorized disclosure offenses. there are cases where and also disclosure maybe as or more serious in terms of intent and or damage. what's more,
8:07 am
the legislation seeks to remove without blow protections, even if what they leaked is in the public interest. and stead 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 leaks video kissing a coworker off to he the obliged millions to abide by his soon strict social distancing measures. i understand the enormous sacrifices that everybody in this country has made that you have made. and those of us who make these rules have 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
8:08 am
hancock officially, but it would have made the scandal very nearly impossible. see, any journalist who shared this video shared anything that they received from a, with a blue, couldn't face a 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. there are 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 than the databases of potential threats, there are special powers that the government wants to give itself the power to punish and restrict individuals, 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
8:09 am
activity, but to 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 make no mistake. this, this new secret law would give the most authors area 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. dead. this is one of the biggest wide ranging attacks on chris freedom. perhaps since since democracy came to britain, the definitions in the report are very old indeed. in fact, were journalism doesn't come up once in the $66.00 page report itself fundamental to the $56.00 page report,
8:10 am
journalists can be more dangerous than spa. obviously the u. s. is prosecuting fe junior designs 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 logical 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 scary and dramatic weather around again in the last 7 days, it led to some devastating floods in central china with at least 50 killed and more
8:11 am
than 300000 others forced to leave their homes and was said to be the heaviest rains in the millennium. the while some about flooding has now receded whole streets in some cities have been turned into rivers. if thor, it is ramping up, rescue and recovery operations, many people are still missing right now. and flooding also, clay nearly 200 lives in western europe as well. that other 300 people are accounted for mid floods that cause damage estimated cost more than 2000000000 euros. meanwhile, the opposition in germany's calling for the interior minister to quit blaming him personally for the country being unprepared for the deluge,
8:12 am
volunteers have been helping to clear the devastation, crippled infrastructure, coupled with huge piles of daybreak, making it difficult to move around and for life to return to even a semblance of normality. why hadn't politicians and climate experts claimed that the government knew of the impending catastrophe in advance, but that they failed to warn citizens, but on the other, officials claimed that the worst effected areas were alerted. either way it's led many to us what went so badly wrong as our europe correspondents been finding out is before the floods struck west in germany, belgium looks in bergen, the netherlands, the copernicus, satellites that make part of the european float awareness system detected problems went on their way for the region, people in our viola, one of the worst effected towns in germany, have been critical of the warnings, or lack thereof that were given or done can do that. no one was expecting it. the warning came too late. a public announcements, 5 or 6 hours in advance would have helped to say some essential belongings. and
8:13 am
other problem is that many elderly people didn't even understand what was going on if they didn't hear anything about it. and then they're also the foreigners. everything should have been organized better. people should have gone door to door or received a warning by phone. in the history of what happened with the opinions of experts analyzing what happened. today's information. you can just refer to the fact that people were informed by text message. you have to imagine how much information is being dumped on people every day already. but then they say, yes, we sent out messages instead of targeting people on the spot, and perhaps getting people out of their homes in particular haunted places. visiting the scene of utter devastation caused by the flooding and west in germany, john langler merkel pledged more efforts to tackle the challenges posed by climate change. quickly chavez, which is germany, is a country that can overcome this financially. germany is a strong country and we will oppose this force of nature in the short term, but also in the medium and long term care policy that takes nature and climate into
8:14 am
accounts more than we have done in recent years. there had been warnings from the weather in 2016 the river, far bursted banks, causing damage to bridges and other infrastructure. they were repaired, but nothing was done to protect against future high waters. it's not a secret that streets in bridges and all these dams are not in a good condition and nobody's investing in it. and they're just like waiting till something happens again, 5 years ago we had a duration similar to this one and a bridge in the near broke and they just repaired it like it's okay for now. and nothing happened till then. and now the bridge is gone again. this part of germany is no stranger to flooding, which banks the questions. why were the authorities not better prepared for what nature would throw out them this time? and will lessons be learned from this tragedy. patrol of all tea and cologne. germany are we spoke to it m. p for germany's left party who told us the
8:15 am
government's repeatedly broken its promises when it comes to emergency systems checks. we are witnessing a fatal or a monumental sailor on different levels as you know, we have in germany federal system. so it's not easy to identify where the problems aware that the, the federal government is 3. they, they do that last year to check their allow system and this was a failure and that for now to do it again this year and to repair it and they didn't do so. no, they are not doing this for next year. it seems that the warning systems and of following evacuations, in other countries were a better organized than germany, which is the which is because the high developed country. but there's
8:16 am
a problem in that system and we have to check it and we have to make it better or political responsibilities. people are not sitting there with of the big party did they reside now in the weakness made headlines to women's beach can bowl team and a spot of hot water over their choice of i will fit, in this case a come prepared for short, the repeating, humble federation had forbidden them from wearing anything other than regulation brief switch or raise questions about the sexual ization of women? sports. are these probably boy go to go. can they look 2021 this summer. oh sure. oh and that their rules, in the case of the norwegian speech handball team, which has been fined 1700 euros for wearing shorts in a match recently instead of the regulation, teeny tiny breed. while the old all that 3 rules mean that the norwegian beach bass
8:17 am
are obliged to strip down apparently the athlete code lizzy, a brain has been told that her short were too short. a recent competition in the u . k. i just said, just kid and she said that, no, i didn't get a bad binding headed shaw. 2021 is getting confusing. you got to send the wait listed. abilene pick female power limby and being told to dress more appropriately and female handle has being punished for trying to dress more comfortably. in the case has been the region. the team actually be european handbook federation for permission for playing shore, but the federation said no, they did it anyway. they were last with a fine. i have not been given a good reason. they just the telling us, this is the rules, the man get to play like this. the man rules state that the agree,
8:18 am
the swimming chunk like short can finish 10 centimeters above the kneecap. while the women are obliged to have that on display maintenance effect to allied while running around, doing strenuous exercise in front inspect cases, i'm being watched on tv. good to possibly have anything to do with the canada view is watching the school way to be there. because it's always the summer, very good people at the university of alabama, i analyzed the beach volleyball at the 2411. they found that 20 percent of the cameras shot were tight shot of play as well as the center of that camera operations. some of you,
8:19 am
so the research is concluded, the visual coverage of the game, confirm that sex and sexuality, we use not only to promote the me, but to sell the sport to us around the world. i love my something tells me that wouldn't be the case if the male player was my name or a very different figures on display to worry about later. inflation and restoring in the united states. joe biden says to worry for the majority of americans being hit in the pocket by rising prices going across that much more to when the weekly returns up to this i ah,
8:20 am
ah ah ah, i will. the big what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation, let it be an arms race is on often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk
8:21 am
the welcome back to the weekly that with inflation in the united states sitting a 13 year high, people are rapidly feeling the pinch. a poll published this week says 88 percent of americans are worried about the disproportionate increase and living costs. president biden though, claim states just a glitch and certainly seems to be having little impact on his spending plans. our experts believe in the data shows that most of the price increases we seen are, were expected, and expected to be temporary. nobody suggestion is unchecked inflation on the way. no series of times. let's check that no one checked inflation claim. now if you have a car, it costs you twice as much to run it as it did last year. your prices have double your daily breakfast now comes with an 8 percent price. as the cost of milk,
8:22 am
bacon and fruit have gone up. on top of that, you've got consumer prices that have hit their highest amount since 2008. now, despite the presence assurances, america's working families already being hard hit by the pandemic are starting to feel the pinch. the groceries are definitely and also the rents are also going up and just household items, making serious progress to ensure that it works the way it's supposed to work for the good of the american people for construction material is out of this world. somebody's making some good money and i think it's just joe biden. we could help families in small businesses, whether the ups and downs or as the economy recovers. i don't buy anything. when is the what the government says nowadays? i, i truly, truly don't look. we brought this economy back from the brink, now biden refuses to hear those voices, perhaps you listen to those within his own party. labor market tightness, behavior of housing markets, and asset prices all rising in
8:23 am
a more concerning way than i worried a few months ago. this raises my degree of concern overheating scenario. there are huge uncertainties, but the focus of concern now should be on overheating. and if that's not enough to change the president's mind on the economy, perhaps this comparison is the wake up call. he needs. the u. s. is in the very bad position from a long term point of view. i don't see how these can and well, when we're running now, budget deficits, something like 15 percent of g d p. this is beginning to look a little bit like a latin american con, printing and spending money like there is no tomorrow, as pretty clearly got people concerned. biden gave the excuse to spend is necessary to tamp down inflation, which is ridiculous out of nothing in common. you can't stop the consequences of monetary printing by doing even more monetary printing, which is what it means to spend this level of money. and the fact is that biden,
8:24 am
and all of his advisors and the political party that he represents, are big spenders, and they want to spend more money. they think that the u. s. government can go into infinite amounts of that. there's no limits whatsoever. they really believe this by mature is us. the problems are just temporary, but perhaps it's a bit like the pandemic and the economic aftermath. it's a bigger problem than was 1st thought. but it seems to be a problem. the biden's apparently incapable of recognizing caleb mop and r t new york. russia is celebrating navy day with nationwide parades, marketing the service is 325th anniversary. one of the biggest celebrations is in the port city of some petersburg. the russian defense minister says it's the largest in years. and president putin ellia addressed service personnel that the event will be rounded off by a firework display later this evening. but all across russia, 15000 mariners to part with almost 300 pieces of military hardware on show as well . all these constant raj calling got a look at the preparations ahead of
8:25 am
a large scale event. we're right in the heart of st. petersburg on the river and we're approaching a worship that. c has become a fixture of this naval parade. it's called corvette story, which can be translated out that fast or resolute rushing corvettes or frigates by native classification are relatively small, but vast warships that are designed to protect coastal waters or other vessels. for instance, story, it was sent to be aiden in 2902 the score to the merchant ships and make sure that we're not attacked by them all. the pirates. truth be told the ships, armen is not something last that store gate and other crew out of that last can fight against aircraft submarines and other ships that have or hillary guns. but it's main. and the most permissible
8:26 am
weapon is right here. it's the launching pad of rushes, latest cruise missiles caliber, columbia. was it hard to city worship in here? so can you almost well we had to do it during the night. we more the ship in complete darkness. it was quite difficult, but we managed we're on the island of branch that me or saint petersburg and this is where some of the biggest battle that i think is hard and the brain are born along them. 3 nuclear power submarines that are going to be on public display for the 1st time. and one of them definitely stands down slightly. russian ladies nuclear stop. that was commission just the year ago, like the 1st grad world headlines back in april after an operation in the arctic ocean when it surface from under the ice, along with you other stuff. this was the 1st time in the history of the russian and soviet navy that such a mission had taken place. and we're on deck
8:27 am
a rocketship cold deal on adult. and what's interesting about this worship is that it took part in an actual military operation in syria, back in 2016 when these crew members were fighting isis. well, this is one of the lower decks of the ship. this is the quarter. it is where the crew members live, as you can see right here, one of the crew members is ironing his uniform thought and that was come for to who does the laundry for the russian navy, a washing machine. and you operated yourself. you do everything by yourself. of course we do the annual naval for rating st. petersburg as great symbolism for the country. russia is marking 325 years since its naval was founded in, in helping to emerge as a global raining, you know,
8:28 am
it's not going to me any better river. i'm going. okay, that's the weekly for this hour. i'll have your next edition off. we have back to investigate that virtually crime for us time. the dog secret, mysterious disappearance, the dakota and tram and tapes continues. next. delmonte the who's the. ready ready watch quintinella. class person. i knew often the said
8:29 am
that the culture blue box to live once more the the because it's always more used to meet the teacher could contribute usually. so which is what gone. yeah. cuz really knew from the moment that she's in mecca williams, i really need somebody knuckle . none of my new middle charts look on the is your media a reflection of reality in
8:30 am
a world transformed what will make you feel safer? type relation or community you going the right way or are you being that somewhere? which direction? what is truth? what is in a world corrupted. you need to this end. the join us in the depths will remain in the shallows, use my name is jason, whatever. but you can call me then or you think you remember me? who had been searching the river? it was pretty obvious. he had muddy boots on. he was arrogant. he was sitting there .
