[000:00:00;00] ah, the germany, social democrats, declare victory as election results in the nation. federal bollet see the center left party finish ahead of angular merkle, see to you which itself slumps to a story close. better late than never media grip. finally express, i'd rage up this ca after a yahoo news investigation alleges that the us intelligence service was closing to kids enough on potentially kill julian us. on those revelations, however, were 1st heard an investigative journalism,
10:01 am
including here in our last year on britain's fuel shortage, crisis deepens with long tail banks at petrol stations. the u. k. government said it's the public's fault for public ah, broadcasting live for moscow. this is our team, my name's universal on 30 minutes of news. on not all was harmonious use start now . the results are in from germany. federal election with the outcome said to determine who will replace and go merkel us counselor and what will be the 1st change up the top in 16 years? the
10:02 am
ah. okay, here's the brief recap of the night, preliminary results. given nora when to the center left social democrats, party leader, love shows, has declared victory saying he has a monday to lead the nation angler merkel. christian democrats finish 2nd with public support for them. dropping to an historic, lo, there is in fact already calls from within the c d u for its leadership to stepped on after the per showing. and 3rd place, the greens, which many know see as potential kingmaker in the upcoming coalition talks or europe correspondent peter over is in berlin with a full breakdown of the vote on what it means for germany. these preliminary result results are written, they usually fairly accurate. we won't get the official result for a little while yet, but what it shows is the social democratic election. they want it in the terms that they've collected, the most amount, the vote, it doesn't mean that they direct to get to form a government just get, we'll have more, not just a little while,
10:03 am
jim and politics never as simple as that. but yes, when it comes down to clear when it loses, the winners have been the social democrats picking up almost 26 percent of the vote . and when you look at the fact that just before the summer, this year, they were polling it 10 percent lower than not. but this is one of the biggest comebacks in lazarus. and it's no wonder that the man, the chancellor, all f schultz is sounding pretty pleased with himself for me to feel it's is in. i'm happy to see so many here today. and of course i'm happy about the election results. london, germans have decided the social democrats are on their way and that's a big success. this will be a long lecture night for sure. but what's the certain as well as that many germans put that cra, he won the next chancellor of this country to be our last shot. while the green party will also go down as big with his full miss election, they put on an extra 5.8 percent for what they posted back in 2017. they were
10:04 am
partying things at green party headquarters on sunday night into the early hours of monday. morning, along with the free democrats to help pretty much around what they got back in 2017 . they look almost certain to be the king make is when it comes to forming a new government. so those are the win is have a look at the loses because whether our win is that has to be loses and it is the center, right? conservative union of the christian democratic union on their bavarian system policy, the christy and social union who certainly fall into that biggest loser county category. it's the lowest numbers that they've posted since the 2 parties come together back in 72 years ago. really huge question. so exactly what went wrong, there's going to be a big old top see when it comes to what happened within the center. right. but they still have a chance of that maintaining power. this is of course, angular merkle policy or was angle american party, the outgoing german chancellor. and no,
10:05 am
the party going into the loses category would be the left day. you dropped off massively from what they posted back in 2017. in fact, say they fell below the 5 percent. you actually need to get into the bottom the side because they 13 constituencies outright. what that means is they have to wait on by the skin of the teeth. the electoral commission has announced that they will get 39 and see in the next parliament left party leadership. they recognize this hasn't been a good time for the above has the it, it's clear that this was the punch in the got and it really hurts the and of course we lost massively. anything else would be unrealistic to claim gonzagos always does . i gave the results we will achieve nationwide is disastrous. there is no need to discuss it at all. so stop. secondly, we should get out of the habit of blaming every one but ourselves. it is important to be self critical and analyze the mistakes we made. on the far right alternative
10:06 am
germany, party or dead, they lost a little bit of the vote on what they put down in 2017. but what they have done is really established themselves as a part of jeremy political landscape. they're posting just over 10 percent in this year's poll, particularly showing that they have a hotline in and around saxony, in the east of the country. counting the votes is the easy bit bo, it's forming coalitions that will be the real tricky thing. following this federal election. the possibilities are well, many you could still have a grad coalition that's between the center left and the center. right. that looks unlikely though. you then could have a traffic light coalition made up of the social democrats, the greens on the free democrats called traffic like coalition because of the party coolest other colors of a traffic light. then there are 3 different coalitions made up of the colors of various national flags up can yet jamaica,
10:07 am
or germany counting the votes. as i said, the easy bit, we are still a long way out for finding out what the next government of germany will look like. and who will be the chancellor to replace angle, american feeder, all of our taken us through that well, try the day. we've been hearing from a number of german experts who told us merkle, c, d, u was stuck in its ways for too long. honest precisely that which brought about their fall from grace. after 16 years of angle, americas chancellor ship, the christian democrats were not able to, so an own profile in terms of policy change and stability. so the problem here was really that they voted twice in favor to continue with. and gala america's a chance legit once when they voted for the party leadership and 2nd for the candidate for the federal election. and both times they more or less were back
10:08 am
birds oriented and not all the oriented. and so more or less it was a decline which was for cfo that has been too much old, fresh and kind of policy work. all in particular with the conservatives. i'm in the way and get medical managed. this country was very i'll punch in mystic way on one hand. and basically she never allowed other persons. so grump. next, sitting next to her. and i think the people were fed up with the system because it was not really generating new policies, giving and you impact policies, but rather to sit out problems and nothing people on board with that. the c d. u, under the rule of angle, america is adopted so many positions of the social democrats of the green parties. the christian democrats have cockpit to the right way social democratic and grim policies. that voters now have the impression. well, why don't you vote for the regional or not only for the christian democrats as
10:09 am
a copy of these policies? we also got reaction from constantine casa charles, the deputy chair of the opera chamber of russia's parliament. he sees that if a new government in berlin chooses to go back on germany's commitment to the nor stream to gas pipeline, its reputation as a reliable partner will be badly damaged just because of the cause. it's a, it's a tremendous amount of work that was put into no stream to scrub because the head of states are leading party changes in one year, a pin country. it would show europe in institutions and not function properly, in my opinion, to prove it legal capacity and ability to european democratic machine should be able to resist attempts made and short term self interest to stop the project. russia does not seek to impose on the german election, therefore, we will not give any assessment of the candidates. the most important thing for us is the chairman policy towards russia to be based on german interests and not on the interest of often misunderstood european or euro atlantic solidarity. unfortunately,
10:10 am
unless we see an increase in strong independent political leadership inside the which would be able to cope with this internal russ, a phobia and resistance to any progress in russia you relations, there will be regression. and this is probably the main risks because as time passes, we notice we're further away from friendly agreements of corporation achieve back in the 900 ninety's. so voting is over in germany, and it is the social democrats who are currently celebrating. but there's a lot of talking to do before the next government and chancellor is confirmed. we'll make sure you don't miss any of the days. big developments here on our team. ah ah. media group say they're deeply concerned over claims. the cia was plotting to kidnap on perhaps kill julian assange. the allegations appear in
10:11 am
a new yahoo news report. the revelations are nothing new. they were erred on our t last year. the yahoo article includes testimony from key witnesses on the ca, heads, fury, and wiki leaks, so called volt 7 disclosures in the us intelligence agencies, activities, pompeo and other top agency leaders were completely detached from reality because they were so embarrassed about vote 7 said a former trump national security official, they was seeing blood was damo quarter. i joined me here in the pseudo to make sense of it. the allegations be, are quite startling, aren't they? although we have, as we'll get to in a moment, seen them before. what's in the report, while it goes all the way back to 2017, when assange was 5 years into his stay at the dorian embassy in london. and that was also when wiki leaks began. publishing its volt 7 documents, a series of document leaks,
10:12 am
exposing the methods and tools that they use in terms of computer hacking. now the agency considers this its largest data loss in ca, history, and according to the sources that yahoo news spoke with. they claimed that the then head of the cia might, palm pale, was basically out for revenge. i mean, it talks about how the cia and british should tell intelligence believes that russian agents had come come up with a plan to rescue julian a songs and bring him to moscow. and it also talks about how these western intelligence agencies were ready for shoot outs in the street to prevent this from happening. so that's really like a crazy claim. i mean, there's all, there were also plans to spy on kidnap and even kill julian songs without any sort of trial. that would be these plans were being fleshed out and talked about in the ca, apparently. and also the had, like i said, mike, palm pale. he apparently was willing to justify this by calling wiki leaks a hostile for an intelligent service, where he likes walks like
10:13 am
a hostile intelligence service and talks like a hostile intelligence service. now if you accept that narrative, then assassinating julian assange could be justified, as of course, and offensive counter intelligence operation as opposed to just killing a civilian without any sort of trial. of course, that's what it seems like the ca was trying to do, but we actually ask them for comment and they have yet to, to respond. we know that the story is getting traction now. what's been some of that reaction? well, 1st and foremost, it's outraged a number of journalists. i mean, a lot of them are thinking could it could be next on the kill list. if i published something that the agency doesn't really like, i mean, we heard from the famous, yay whistleblower edward snowden. he said that the charges against julian, a son should be dropped because he was, he was targeted by the ca, without going through any legal process. we also heard from one of the journalists mentioned in the yahoo news report, glen greenwald,
10:14 am
he said that the cia and now biden basically looks like they're responsible for attacks on press freedom. and we even heard a, an official response from the, from the, the freedom, the freedom of press foundation and they, let's take, listen what they said. the ca is a disgrace. the fact that it contemplated engaged in so many illegal acts against wicker lakes is now tried scandal, but should be investigated by congress and the justice department. these new revelations which involve a shocking disregard of the law truly beyond the pale. but we should reiterate, this is not the 1st time we've heard or been speaking about. indeed these allegations. yeah, actually investigative journalist at the grace own max blumenthal, he had already published an investigation earlier that revealed and apparently a spying operation against doing the songs when he was at the ecuadorian embassy and plans to assassinate him or kidnap him. so let's take,
10:15 am
listen to actually the interview that we did with him. i obtained an e mail in which morales who does not speak english very well, is giving instructions to his employees at the ecuadorian embassy in perfect english on how to set up a separate a secret separate video server to circumvent the ecuadorian security services and feed video back to the united states to the american client, this e mail was sent from an ip address trace directly to the venetian hotel of donald trump's top donor sheldon adelson, and brian nagle, who has adults and global director of global security. and this is significant because brian nagle has a decades long career at the u. s. secret service. morales is employees who were involved in the operation. just not just spy on julian his size,
10:16 am
but revealed that they had even been told to consider an operation to assassinate julian hassan the top dissident in the west with poison. so with more and more information being published and being, you know, and people knowing about this about possible cia abuses when it comes to their, their dealings with drilling assange. i mean, it's definitely going to take away credibility from the, from washington's attempt at appealing for his extradition to the united states. don, thanks very much for taking us through to our team dollar quarter. so as petrol pumps run dry in the u. k and a supply chain crisis deepens, the governments on the defensive, dining street scenes of tale box and empty pumps, that petrol stations don't panic buying. but critics say westminster should take responsibility as it's miss management. they claim that has led to such behavior, isa alley picks up the story. that's probably
10:17 am
a variety of reasons as to why you've been seeing the scenes over the past few days this weekend, just gone in the united kingdom of dr. as motorists panic, buying as much fuel as they can in some instances, as report so much that there were shortages of delivery drivers, fuel truck drivers across the country. many reasons being put forward for that and it led to scenes of people going out panic, buying. we saw the kind of scenes last year at the time that makes start when people were fighting in the supermarket aisles or the food and toilet paper. and this time, we've seen scenes of violence saw some for courts, people falling out and pushing in front of each other and driving into each other. in some instances, we've also heard reports of security and emergency services themselves not being able to access fuel on us for those who have been caught up cooing for hours in
10:18 am
some instances, to try to get that fuel they have not seen, they expect to see in a developed country, you know, sometimes cross country, we claim to be and we have to be wasting your way to get just a bit. petro, it's really up. that's the thing that we've come to this to be on it. i'm quite low right now is also, i don't know what the situation may be an upcoming days from now than leaving any asthma and messes the government, has more than anything the government isn't making this better, to be honest with anything, never. she take it back. i many queuing because everybody else is getting on a, you know, i need to be, petro runs out. i'm going to get to know it's for the government's response to the crisis. what we've been hearing from crunch shops, the transport secretary and he's not been shy. and taking a met both the public for panic, buying is what he says is one of the reasons for this thing. there isn't a shortage of fuel, but also the groups which represent the fuel industry saying that they contributed
10:19 am
to this crisis by essentially staring the public in public by there's plenty of fuel, there's no shortage of the fuel within the country. so the most important thing is actually that people carry on as they normally would. and that cause when they normally would, then you wouldn't have cues and you wouldn't have shorts just the pump either. so it's not like we don't have a fuel than the current country. we do need to just ensure that people are filling up when they need the law, rather than thinking that it goes a lot. now, just in case i need it next week or the week after the amongst the pressure being placed on government a cause for the gratian reforms to be done. there are reports that the government will be making visas easier to access for those truck drive. as a temporary 3 month visa, which will take them up to christmas to ensure that no food short just leading up to the festive period, but least the next few weeks are those who be facing the same type of ordeal that
10:20 am
even yours truly did. having to queue up for hours just to feel that cause there is more news from britain to come later in the program. the newborn baby of an 18 year old inmate has died following a series of feelings and quote, in adequate care in europe's largest female prison. the story to the break. ah, i join me every 1st day on the alex summon show when i was speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me ah, with
10:21 am
10:22 am
to injury. it's later emerge that only the guards, not the mother, receive bereavement counseling. afterwards. i miss a gave birth alone in her cell overnight without medical assistance. no one responsible for miss a care had a full history of her pregnancy maternity services ad bronze field for outdated and inadequate. the response to me as
10:23 am
a request for nurse was completely inadequate. there was no pediatric or neonatal emergency equipment in the prison. ah, the 18 year old was in bronze field prison located south west of london on reman for a robbery charge. days before giving birth, she told guard she would kill herself if her baby was taken from her prison. officials have admitted wrong doing say the same internal investigations on going women's rights advocate. re severson thinks the head of the prison should be held accountable. this is more of the, the cars that we continue to see with human rights violations, specifically for incarcerated people, but also for women. this is a common experience throughout the private prison that we've got to really get more serious about human rights laws and realizing that we, we owe each other
10:24 am
a duty to treat one another humanely. and even if you have been found to have been, you know, kind of convicted of a crime, there's still a duty to treat you with humanity. and that's not, that's clearly not been the case. and if there is such a large gap in what needs to happen versus what's actually happening, and you have to do a complete overhaul for more importantly, we have to call for accountability for the head of that prison. there are certain protections that need to be put in place and they simply were not here. that's unacceptable. there's, there's no, there's no understanding or no, no, no reasonable explanation for how something like this could happen on anyone's watch. french fishermen are outraged over the government's plan to install new offshore wind turbines, around the north coast during a protest they dumped rotten fish at the doors of the regional maritime committee.
10:25 am
now the demonstration which involved around $300.00 fishermen started on boats and then continued to the shore. the protesters believe that wind turbines will kill all fish area on a given the goal of our protests, to alert politicians and the general public. that there's a danger to the see. the problem is that they're trying to sell us those wind farms as if they were eco friendly. the truth is that they're not a senior, a french energy official has defended the wind farm plant, saying protestors risk leaving people without electricity who will be calling them . and if it is nothing but the week of certain people to leave in their local communities without taking into consideration the common needs of our country, we do need energy. our society depends on the energy production can certainly create some disagreements. at the head of the french regional fishing committee, saying that the government is turning a blind eye to the damage the project will cause. i believe that this whole green
10:26 am
transition is a masquerade, a true environmental disaster. and the general public knows nothing about what is going on in the see we, the fishermen were in the see every day. so we know what problems were dealing with . unfortunately they never listen to us. only we know where wind farms can be built in a way they won't endanger the fish, at least now, the government is aware that there are protests and the fishermen are determined to never let this happen, but we will fight till the end. so let's keep attention known program in europe, serbia on cost of are caught up and yet another dispute. this time over road access surveys, troops are on high alert, near the cost of a border video clip circulating online suggest belgrade is sending tanks to the brick away territory. it comes after cost of ordered, serbian drivers entering the region to obtain new license plates issued by cost of to vehicle registration officers have been attacked near the border. the serbian
10:27 am
president said the disputes been simmering for some time, but foreign powers turned the blind dying to both rage warnings. the complete occupation of nothing course of the matter. he jer with alma vehicles. my prisoner has been going on for the past 7 days, and everyone in the international community stays thunderously silent. individuals in groups whose activities endanger the rule of law and public order are attacking our state and disturbing the peace. they are clearly encouraged and supported by serbia, serbia is using the citizens of kosovo to provoke a serious international conflict. serbia does not recognize its former province of kosovo as a separate nation, thus considers their mutual border, a temporary boundary of kosovo, unilaterally declared its independence from serbia back in 2008 almost a decade after a war between the 2 sides of the nato intervention thing that roughly half of you and members have never recognized cause of all was independent. the
10:28 am
e u has cold and both sides to de escalate tension. costco and serbia must find solutions to defuse the situation and agree on the way forward. the e. you will actively support these efforts, both cost of answer be and lead as a fully responsible for any risks to the safety and well being of local communities . we've been asking or a guess what's driving the balkans found off the message we're getting back is that tested support from the west is encouraging cost to vote. to engage in confrontation with survey european union, western politicians, calling on both sides to de escalate. when it's, as we said, only one side causing the country, and i actually had a chance to interview one of the officials of our courteous party. i'll be pretty being the prime minister of the so called republic. also with minute you start mary's name with minute, that was essentially a colony of the west. and this basically means that nothing that customer does is done without approval of the united states. so it's basically an issue where the
10:29 am
constable does whatever it wants with the blessing of the united states. and in west says, you know, you to present in belgrade need to figure out a solution of how to get out of this out of a situation that is caused by western interference. what we have here is a us attempt to up up the answer as well. as seems to be happening is that things are too quiet for washington's chase, and they're encouraging the albanian, the leadership to the temperature. so the west come in pressure, so we have to lower the temperature. as always happens. this is one side, the l pay a leadership advised by washington behaving unilaterally creating a crisis. so any concessions should be by then we should basically be de escalation of that tendency to escalate the why the picture we have, i would say washington advising the paintings. we have a president, routine safety perhaps too much advice from tony lab. so you will have western
10:30 am
participants on both sides in a way we, we have here just to kind of analogy of political situation by proxy with albany and using performing the usual quisling role of appeasing the empire. that seems to be around at the time the protagonists enter a documentary after that break are different and they don't care. it's an uplifting life affirming collection of stories. and it starts in moment. oh, i know when i would chose the wrong one. i'll just don't rule out disdain because after an engagement equals the trail, when so many find themselves well the parts we choose to look for common
