for this i'm show business. i'll see you then me the the cobra restrictions in mandatory policies. bog, furious rallies for freedom around the world, while medics argue that where one person's liberty begins and other ends. you have to balance personal choice with what's good for the most people at the end of the day. like it's a balance of risk. you can't wrap people up and caution will pull us won't prob, new york state handling of coping care home despite accusations of deliberately under counting debts. we hear from grieving families to give us led coalition
12:01 pm
pulled out of afghanistan, but interprets as he worked for foreign troops. say they fear they advancing taliban after a translator was beheaded. it's a group we were you know, over the course of the roof you loop, it's quite easy to play somebody. ah, i know that is our 1st like global frustration. then thousands have been rallying worldwide against coven restrictions. but while people chance slogans for greater freedom, countries are grappling with high infection. rates says that delta strain advances the
12:02 pm
biggest rallies have been in france where more than a 160000 turned out over the weekend. but president micron is calling on people to think of others and to give up personal liberties your peddling couldn't be best in existence. no freedom exists without duty. the freedom where i owe nothing to any one does not exist. it's a fiction ally. people seldom failed them. my freedom only and where the freedom of the other began women, but above all, it is based on a sense of reciprocal duty. and what is your freedom worth? if you say to me, i don't want to be vaccinated, but if tomorrow you in fact you father that if that have on fall, no glove is francis up against it to have anything more than 20000 new cases a day and health passes and are mandatory for venues holding more than 50 people across the channel in britain, the figures are falling,
12:03 pm
but they still remain high. hovering it around are just below 70000 cases a day right now, the other office. so those numbers could rise again as england has removed most restrictions. even so it was some still failed, but that freedom is not being respected. there's more, i guess deb explains. it would be impossible to sum up what these protests were about. in britain, when france, italy, greece, a strange people from all walks of life, threw caution to the wind in a bid to be heard to cry out. and the one thing that they all wanted is to say, where todd todd and angry the
12:04 pm
the day, one 1st thought may be that the season very small staging a mass protest in the middle of a pandemic was while the delta vary and so much more contagious is making the rounds and that is what our streaming need is for example, latched onto cooling protesters morons. in relation to yesterday's approach, i cannot say how absolutely disgusted i was. it broke my heart, millions and millions of people across outside of doing the right thing. and it just broke my heart, the people had such
12:05 pm
a disregard that they feel like citizens. what we saw today in sidney is unfortunately something that we've seen in cities that we all shake our heads that it's quite clear that you know, sidney isn't amune for morons as well. except of course, it isn't that simple. people are weary. they are fatigued by this pandemic. the bad news, the, the locked down, the oscillation all over the world. in that respect, we're all the same. people yearn for freedoms and equality. portia and we are not against vaccines as the claim. again, this is not an explanation movement of these. i think in people who are freedom, you have them. i believe that this is an attack on fundamental freedoms. in france, there is a law saying medical procedures cannot be forced wives and facts. nation is being imposed on us one way or another. the people behind the health possible behaving like not see,
12:06 pm
we are forced to get vaccinated. this is the call close up. we no longer have freedom of choice. as we mr. bay, the government, which in my opinion is to run a co op and up to e legitimate, public here rotation moved into anger even rage and even lunacy trial. but not the doesn't go too far way too far. they never consider the other side of the argument, the millions and millions that have been killed, killed by this virus. that is indisputable. and leaders have one overarching goal to prevent millions more from sharing the same fate. and they have decided the personal freedoms over which you repeat in 4 was the food freedoms can be suspended, ramon to conform the world is facing a 4th wave. we must act. and at the same time we know the key to this problem. it's
12:07 pm
not new to the contagious of this delta variance is forcing us to do more. we must functioning. the bitter truth is that there is no miracle solution, no one that will make everyone happy, no matter how many protest people stage, or no matter how many look downs governments implement the very best we can hope for all civility and perseverance, which will probably require protest this to refrain from trying to hang doctors and officials to defeat from cooling. moved is more audience. we've been discussing the balance between freedoms and risks to society with medical experts, people absolutely furious. democracies are being turned into shapes. i think it's really important the government in the west realized that govern with the mandate of the people. and i think changing the gulf, i keep telling people that they cannot have their liberty and they no longer have
12:08 pm
that mandate will. of course, there are some restrictions of freedom we all live together in a society and we give up some personal freedoms in order to live together in harmony. not being vaccinated. i think is like driving on the red light because you put not just yourself in danger, but you put other people around you in danger because this is a virus. that is of course, contagious. there will always be new strength of ours. the whole point of the vaccination role was to ensure that we protected the elderly and the funder. but what people are concerned about is that they have no choice in it. and the end of the day, it's your body, and what you put into your body should be up to you. personal choice is always the best way. people make the right choice. but we're talking about a contagious virus here that is killing people. and so you have to balance personal
12:09 pm
choice with what's good for the most people at the end of the day. life is a balance of risk. you cannot wrap people up in costs and will fall under some point we have to say, and i think the actually we have on last week from a huge number of population. we already even had immunity. i'm afraid i agree with the protest this. i never thought in the united kingdom in a host of war, you pay, we be off to show papers, to go to the cinema, to get the data to go to the football. go to the rugby. i mean, i think it's absolutely outrageous now, only that we haven't fascinated enough people always happen. well, of course, the people who are protesting, they don't like to wear the mass. they don't wish to be vaccinated, and therefore they don't like the passports either. so they would just like to ignore the coding and what it is doing to people around the world, making them sick and causing many people to die. not only
12:10 pm
a major problem with that, because i think that's about liberty. i don't think it's about personal choice and it's not about freedom. so i'm totally against the passive, but i'm all in favor of people being fascinated. it's a merge. the us justice department will not investigate. new york state's handling is covered in nursing homes. the announcement came in a letter to republican lawmakers and it's outraged victims, families. cowards, you coward, you believe in the money you follow the money trail, your coward. how can you just and there is no apology. i mean to sit there and watch. cuomo how his tone changed? you know, he seems so sympathetic now because he's off, he's free. i'll tell you about the lie. the lights have been going on for years. my mother's been tripping and falling in that nursing home for years. my mom, they said she had arthritis, but she kept bawling. so they blamed pain on her shoulder on not right as and it was not arthritis she had at this located shoulder and years earlier. she fell in
12:11 pm
the nursing home and she broke her hip. they had to do a hip replacement. this is what i mean by the life lives are always there almost thing that he wants to help and not letting the, the live to. we've been lied to. and we're going to be continue to live too, because just that's the way that's the way in your function. we have no rights. i feel like i have no right. i feel like all those 15000 and they're gone. they're not coming back to we. we for bill gently and we have no answers, we still have no answers, we still continue to fight and we're just heartbroken. and how can the whereas the justice for us, where's the justice for our family? it's nowhere, it's nowhere. we will continue to undo your governor and require most accused of hiding the number of corona virus related deaths in nursing homes to make the state look more successful in its handling of the pandemic. and critics also say that facilities were forced to take recovering patients from hospitals, even if they may have been still contagious. the original dest numbers revealed in
12:12 pm
january, was subsequently revised and nearly doubled in the process a month later. so the justice department's decision now not to start a pro, has drawn outcry, not just from families, but also from republicans who claim that the biden administration is letting democratic party governor's off the hook. the republicans accused by and have been complicit in the scandal, adding that new york is deserved on says and accountability. the new york governor did eventually confirmed the discrepancy, but stopped short of issuing an apology, saying it's that the lessons have been learned by who hears. 3328 died in a hospital, died in a nursing home. they died. i'm the assistant director of a group of over 5000 family members that lost their parent or loved one, just like i lost my dad in a long term care facility because of coal. that governors knowingly put a disease that was the most jed lead to senior citizens and with senior citizens.
12:13 pm
they mass data that we had no idea this was going on. this was done secretly and they knowingly killed senior citizens. if this isn't a violation of civil rights, i don't know what is a violation of civil rights fighting? called governor cuomo, the handling of depend on the gold standard. and i called the bite in ministration . the gold standard of corruption. there was no excuse for this. and we want to find out why this investigation was stopped. it looks like a case of democrats covering for other democrats. they don't want to open the pandora's box of what could be underneath the surface. they know that the crimes were committed here. the u. s. is prepared to continue bombing afghanistan, at least within the near future, despite withdrawing troops from the country. that's the message from the pentagon commander in the region. the united states has increased airstrikes in the support
12:14 pm
of afghan forces over the last several days. and were prepared to continue this high level support in the coming weeks. if the taliban continue. their attacks told him in a massive offensive by the taliban right now, which says that it controls 85 percent of the country. the conflicts not only claim the lives of troops, of course, but also many civilians. the united nation says more than 800000 afghans have fallen victim to the war since 2009. it's also led to an increasing refugee crisis . the former pentagon security analyst believes the u. s. s. strikes won't stop the taliban. well, i think it's a little too little to leave. the tele bomb has really been on the move. and you have, you have a lot of african forces that have already deserted they, in fact they've gone into other countries. and this, this kind of support, i think, is a last ditch effort to try and support what's left of the cabal government. if you recall the defense secretary initially announced that there would be no such air
12:15 pm
support for afghan forces. now that's been reversed after they saw the lightning speed in which the taliban has taken over. and they're just, they're just moving, moving, and they're, and they're going into strategic areas that they know that they can take very, very rapidly, particularly district capitals, biden from the very, very start, had advocated removing troops altogether from afghanistan. and, and if you recall, he was also the vice president under obama when obama moved all troops out of out of iraq. and we only had to go back in again. and so this is just history repeating itself. and it probably will become worse because it's the bombing will probably hit limited areas, but i don't think it's going to be effective against the widespread infiltration that the telephone has now made. and the inroad that they have made into the
12:16 pm
districts and the prevention of capitals or reports to reveal that the advancing taliban beheaded and africa translator in may. he was one of thousands of local interpreters who now stay at persecution. we spoke to one translator whose identity we disguised for his safety for the conservative country where people live in and type community, they have been interrupted with. the information was made by dave relatives. regardless of where you move, you cannot forget all your relatives, save us your information on the community for us as the information down because we're working for the the, the american will seen as a betrayal or, or the country or other time. so you can certainly change your phone number, but that's not going to help. moving houses will not help you because people know each other. it's a country with, you know,
12:17 pm
every single person in the street where you live. so it's quite easy to trace somebody and find them. it's quite easy. you form the relative student home the most when they go to your you throw a night later their home. so quite different ways with these attempts have been threatened. washington has now launched operation allies, refuge to support the relocation of ascot nationals who worked for the us. the 1st batch will include $700.00 translators together with their families. but as the former interpreter points out, many of the left behind the danger for them isn't over, especially for those who work for other nato armies. this room is only for the all those local employed civilians so worked for the american forces. it doesn't include the metal countries, particularly one of the countries her,
12:18 pm
the united kingdom has failed to provide safety to their own local employer, civilians their friend to carry out their duty of care towards the early seas. the west has not only abandoned the can civilians who have worked with them. they have abandoned their partners. the african nation. the nation cited the western countries in this war against ours today, the western campus, but they can literally be the bigger countries, like the united states, u. k, germany, france of runaway, and left the condition alone to face the terrorism. frances, off the u. border agency to provide abled surveillance of the english channel and that the highest, the legal migration this year britain was described as europe's laughing stock when
12:19 pm
an inflatable, digging packed with migrants was picked it arriving in its waters. british border officials say that to stretched to stop them. i'm secretary pretty patel defended had decision, had more than 50000000 pounds to franz, to stop refugees. getting in as critics was, it's a waste of money. fact is that we cannot stop everyone from crossing because there are just too many people and the coastline is too big. so they, the british people are giving more money from their own taxes. that's going to waste is going to harm the relationship between the 2 countries. so just giving the friends more money to carry on doing what they doing badly is not going to solve the problem. when are you going to get the french to admit they can intercept and get them to intercept polar spends a lot of time hitting that spent a lot of time having those operational discussion with the french. they have a different interpretation of saving lives. when crisis is hating up as more than 400 migrants we're seeing crossing the channel in just one day last week,
12:20 pm
which is the highest daily number observed this year. since january, about 8 and a half 1000 migrants arrived in britain by sea, which is an average more than a 1000 a month, the secretary says she's pushing for reforms. there are physical reforms, but the bill has come for hence it meshes. look at the entire system from an end to emphasize what she thinks. conservative politicians all day, which is make out that they're doing something. they're already the power to do something about if she wanted to do it. but she doesn't want to. she wants to distract people's attention from the fact that she's not going to do anything about it. part of that is having this new bill amusingly, almost immediately the crown prosecution service has said that they will be prosecuting these. so i mean that, that sort of rather revealed that actually wasn't, it was actually a serious attempt to tackle of them to actually look at the people that are coming, then they're not women and children. not the people sort of
12:21 pm
weak and fleeing from things. young men, mostly in any case, they're coming from fraud. so that, that immediately puts pay to any idea of refugees because refugees as opposed to seek asylum in the 1st country. they come to that they're coming because they think that they will have a better life here. they know that we looked often given wealth, have benefits and free medical attention all the rest of it. what needs to be done, these things that make the crystal class people that if they come here illegally that they won't be allowed to stay in june. as he has been plunged into political crisis softer, the president sacked the prime minister and suspended parliament, saying they mishandled the coven pandemic. on top of that, the president dismissed the country's defense minister and the acting justice minister, also stripping and peace of their immunity from prosecution city to point a new prime minister in the coming hours protested so demanding snap elections. somehow
12:22 pm
the objects of police who responded with tear gas and several demonstrators were arrested a trinity in political analysts told us the people isn't just because of the pandemic handling of the 19 has been at the topic which made things worse. and it was almost like the last shore for years now, the situation been going on from back to work. i think there is a lot of these appointment in the leaf and more, you have to know that, you know, the can is a revolution by the young people they believed in the revolution beginning. but the government, namely, more specifically the government has not delivered since, you know, the, to the power. and the economic situation has gone, you know, some back to worse. and as i said before, you're aggravated by the lake. and also there is a feeling your general feeling em all be from the last, you know,
12:23 pm
the political really is corrupt, which made you think, i guess much easier for the president to take the decision last night. so there is the strength and feeling that the people who goblin are not morally apt for that. now germany's reason devastating floods of focused minds there on climate change and to particularly eco leaning policies have an item that ahead of the upcoming election. they want to put the brakes on high speed motorway drivers, blaming them for pollution. something the routing conservative say is just political health that we want to speed limits of 130 kilometers per hour for the auto bond and a maximum of a 120 kilometers per hour. if necessary for sections passing through cities and the surrounding communities. we will introduce a speed limit of 130 kilometers per hour for the federal autobahn. this measure will protect the environment and considerably decrease the number of accidents. the
12:24 pm
argument for general speed limits isabel, it's going from it's a war for some, even a fetish correspond, peter, all of a hit the road to find out more about germany's troubled relationship with the auto bonds. if one of the things germany is most famous for but the days of their being no c limit on the countries, our bond may be numbered. german also aficionados and not convinced by the plans and c motorists as coming in for one fare flack. how far in our opinion ca drive is excessively the focus of attention was shown of carbon dioxide emissions. and total road traffic is that most 20 percent of all emission industry energy supply and agriculture together of responsible for 80 percent of emissions industry. as an automobile club, we have the impression that car drive is of very much in the focus without the burdens being reasonably distributed among the other sectors of climate change have been at the forefront of people's mind following tragic floating in both western
12:25 pm
europe on china. the mayor of the city of to begin in the south west of germany has a controversial plan to get people to ditch their calls in favor of public transport. how much he, you willing to pay for parking? the plan in to begin is that if you own a larger, more polluting vehicle like an f u, v, you could be charged $10.00 times all over 10 times as much as anybody with a small vehicle i think stands at the moment a yearly residents parking permit. cost you around $30.00 euro under the new scheme, while that cost could rise to as much as $360.00 euro. so those big cause i asked people in berlin if they would support a move like this. i will think it's kind of a price people that own big costs have paid more for them, so they have more money and maybe it wouldn't hurt them to pay for the extra space
12:26 pm
they take away from the city. i think there should be and balance for those who are driving big cars because they're polluting the air and i'm just not good for the but i think that this will just car in the front and fire the conflict between those who are wanting to drive because those stones, public opinion in favor of a speed limit in germany, is as high as it has been for 30 years. according to a poll by europe largest motoring association, half of those polled said now what is the time for change? turning, polling into policy may well turn out to be quite a difficult thing to do. germany speed limit for the motor ways are sacrosanct to some, including those very close to the ruling. conservative party, south pole, and the out of bond remain very dear to many german ha, feature all of them off the girl, and on a lighter note,
12:27 pm
a certain pretty cartoon take has been causing trouble across the pond. american parents have been shocked to find that kids using british expressions and even speaking in english accents after their children, binge watched peppa pig during off, down the ever seen the alter, watching, not to pick. has you told me i started calling you mummy or ask him to go to the lou instead of the bathroom? you might ask why? well, that's thanks to peppa pig kids across the state of a pallet. they started speaking with a british accent of to binge watching the program during locked down. who would have thought that this little preschool picky could be set influential? my daughter has what i would call the peppa pig british accent. how can i be my 5
12:28 pm
year old niece in new york city had an american accent before the pandemic. now, she has a passion, english accent, after spending a year at home watching peppa, pig. oh, yes. my daughter commonly uses words and phrases like said, nancy petro, can i have a go, et cetera. and for a christmas, i had put out a freaking mince pie for father christmas, or as we call him here in the states. santa american kids watch so much peppa pig during a pandemic, that they developed british accents and started regularly using british words like holiday instead of vacation. confusing their parents whatever. next course, a bit, your child wakes up and makes another cup of tea in the morning for now. the pepper effect is just dominating young voices with kids. adopting unusual to america vocabulary and a british accent. and it takes claim to fame is and she's the 2nd most is devonne cartoon. and us household just fine spongebob weapons. but he's not just parents
12:29 pm
struggling to key pop us politicians seem to think that this piggy pandemic is another british takeover we rules. so this wouldn't happen. oh, i remember the great battle over the british tongue. they don't everyone things. so that's a key event in the history books. we fought wars over english accents. i'll never forget the battle over the que versus line controversy that turned into a world war when the color versus color atrocities were exposed. so kids wouldn't learn british pronunciations. i'm pretty sure the revolutionary war was about something slightly more than that. they weren't so bad was saying you'll please and thank you. i think it's rather lovely, but i would, i wouldn't die being in the homeland of peppa pig to talk like peppa pig donald duck. i would have thought so because it's that's it for now. you're next muted with andrew pharma here on the international and half an hour from now. oh,
