but they failed to come up with that legislation to combat it. wow. i hit by a wave of anti lockdown rallies. australia sees a rising cases of alleged police brutality against protest and poland today accusing the view of blackmail after that block threatens to withhold cache for regions that don't recognize the rights of the l g. b t. community. we gauge public opinion on the authorities have the right to not from out to everyone has despised you are being union should find another way. i believe that the european union should not interfere with what's happening and pulling it off ah why their life? my will do say cool school is out. international is friday, october. the 1st my name's kevin owen. so 1st them the jailed us hacked of his

martin got phil's back in the spotlight afternoon. he's serving time for carrying out a cyber attack on a hospital, which he claims had mistreated the teenage girl. it's a place case we have been closely following and now there are concerns for his own health and treatment behind bars. ah, let me tell you more. his wife donna claims he's currently on hunger strike in solitary confinement further. she says she's not heard from him now for about a week. she spoke to colon bray. the last time anyone heard from him is september 23rd. and when he is playing in solitary, it usually are almost always comes with a hunger strike. and the conditions are still deplorable from a water drinking water. they corrode metal too hot steam pipes. it's very

dangerous. that place is so scary. i spoke to a lawyer the other week that told me that it's the worst president in the united states. and for she is different than even the sheer that they use for the rest of the facility. it's. it's really scary to say that martin's been stripped of his phone and i was showing off the last conversation. why was that? it's just a temporary punishment. will you be warned that communicating with us here at r t could violate prison rules. we believe that it's retaliatory and for speaking out against the prison, rape elimination act violations, friend the unit manager, there's not an iota evidence that he's done anything wrong, nor can they provide me. it doesn't seem to matter though, because they've already thrown in the shoe. i don't know the extent and the punishment whether that includes more or how much time this is going to take was we heard all that party happened after she gave a recording of a conversation with a husband to us it out to you earlier this month in it,

he talks about alleged corruption of the court, but says he still has no regrets either. i'm certainly not going to quite a bit with the traffic on acceptable a test to make the decision. until we ask the prison to comment so far, no reply go field was jailed in 2018 over his flight for what he believed was right . who i think. oh right now i needed you home. my family with she has been totally medically abuse

with finally common sense prevail with i just don't know how this really hopping because it doesn't feel like it's, it's real acute, so good to be home with

. and then further allegations, he says he was sexually abused by a prison official that his complaints for the were ignored. again, the facility hasn't commented on this claims, but this is what his wife told us. the man in question was the unit manager for the ceo as well as for death row. he has sexually abused in numbers and mates. in my case i, he looked again while he was in the nude investigating as he's done with other people. he stuck his hand in her occupied showers and had gone into cells and escorted and off camera. and in a display i guess of dominance and sexual intimidation kind of rules on the books about korea. and that's the prison, rape elimination act. and how the people that accused others are supposed to be protected and have investigations, and none of that is happening. bmw for

other news. now facebook's head, the safety's come on to foreign congress over the effects, the company's services have on young people's mental health. it comes out to linked to internal research suggesting as photos sharing platform, instagram harms, children's well being. lawmakers, a blasted the tech giant for exploiting kids for profit. it has weapon, eyes, childhood vulnerabilities against children themselves. it's chosen growth over children's mental health and well being greed over preventing the suffering of children. this seems to be a recurring theme with this company. do everything and anything to mould the world into your own image. for your own profit, without any regard for any harm that is going to be done because your focus is on your pocket book. this book is just like big tobacco pushing,

a product that they know is harmful to the health of young people, pushing it to them early. also facebook to make money. i g stands for instagram, but it also stands for insta, greed. while those accusations against facebook include its failure to police extremism and hate speech, as well as his poor handling of uses personal data. but despite that, there is still no significant matches in place when it comes to regulating the platforms content. kellum opens, got more on this friday. facebook had to postpone the rolling out of their new app directed at children under the age of $1313.00 and younger. ah, because of wide spread outrage and the barrage of criticism that facebook was facing after the wall street journal revealed that facebook was well aware of the harmful effects caused by instagram. we make body image issues worse for one in 3

teen girls, teens blame instagram for increases in rate of anxiety and depression. according to what is being reported among teenagers who are suicidal, 13 percent in britain and 6 percent in the united states actually listed instagram as having a been a factor in their desire to commit suicide. the tech giant a has, you know, basically accused of these reports of, quote, cherry picking fats on the eve of today's hearing. they did release 2 of their own internal reports, but many are looking on with disappointment because this is certainly not the 1st time that facebook has been caught suppressing data and channeling information in their own way. the research that we've seen is that using social apps to connect with other people can have positive mental health benefits. many people across the political spectrum in the united states, democrats, republicans, it seems like

a consensus in the united states that there should be some better regulation of big tack and social media on that. the harmful effects of social media should be controlled. but despite there being such widespread feeling and they're being ongoing hearings on capitol hill are, there doesn't seem to be a real legislative agenda being rolled out. other don't seem to be a real legislation being put into the works to limit the power of big tack and the social media monopolies despite of some colorful hearings. like we just heard. the answer over here is for free voluntary action to shut down facebook and whether that's something like a small business, refusing to advertise on facebook or over a government agency refusing to share information through facebook. the key here isn't to regulate it, because that's gonna end up only favoring facebook, but rather to leave facebook and especially for the government to show an example and to set to remove all government agencies from facebook. so if the government

simply steps away from it, and that includes also as well, i think repre electra represent at representatives have a moral responsibility to leave facebook. that decreases its values, utility and lee. that is what it should be is basically sort of a small shy. it's a small site to share some basic information. a series of anti lockdown rallies, the stray layer of st tempest fray with the allegations of police brutality against protest is in some cases, the frustrations being fueled by some of the toughest and longest cupboard restrictions in the world that he's 2 claims of police violence been made in the last 6 days alone, some videos have been circulating online. oh wow. what so i guess what i did? well, if videos him from melbourne, it shows the swift attention of one demonstrator apparently after entered a restricted area is had the story goes. and that is a separate incident in sydney, a mother was allegedly arrested in front of her children for not wearing

a mask. it fell as a wave of violent anti coven valleys across the country. ah ah, defending the tut tics authorities illustrated some protests as a quote there for a fight and not to protest. they said for freedoms calibrate, discuss with our guests whether the police and the restrictions have just gone on too far. peter, i'd imagine the police are trained to anticipate when the things like locked down fatigue, overwhelmed people, and they start to get out to take it towards office of assistance in the background or individual offices and on time counsel enough. so situation where does this

steady development pressure on the public about a particular angle? very often. and so it might be useful to mind as a country, regardless of that aspect, offices should be acting proportionately occurs. it's a pressure job. we're on grateful. but look what is happening now, and you can use brutality. i'm in what i saw in the food charge it was quite disturbing. and that the woman wasn't, even i, you know, doing anything shred is my age to expect police to be as a result of things without any use of force. and so, and i use of force isn't necessarily groups. obviously, it becomes brutality when it's unnecessary and or excessive. hello. a lot of police time is taken up, dealing with anti faxes in their protests and people who are fed up with lockdown, just wanting to say enough is enough. can any of these and evil rallies ever be justified? personally, i think back since our precious leisha to reduce the harm of this horrible virus. but i also understand the to many people there are really fed up for us that we

need to have some, you know, someone to do to help us not spread the virus, but, and there is another way to do that. and it's not the way that i saw there was training policeman to, you know, was doing with that for mother. and i agree that so you know, different scenarios need different tact is if you're going to say the pollution stop doing things the way they do them after year is in decades the old and then are afraid. we want me to be able to come up with a realistic alternative, asked for having difference, trying to different talk, process posts. i think what would lead to more confusion. we sold them must be it something else that we can do and, and i sure the people might eventually listen more if you treat them in a different way. friday, october. the 1st. how those come at. so 15 past the hour. my name's kevin. oh, i know on the way in france, 1995 fighters as

a new inf was suspended because they've refused to be vaccinated. what do you think about that? i'll tell you more after the break here on our t international. ah . ah, frances mich, chrome recently said, quote, the europeans must stop being naive when we are under pressure from powers, which at times harden their spans, we need to react and show we have the power and capacity to defend ourselves, vold words. but does europe have the political will to actually defend itself? ah, if you would expect to be of non government would be in the image over at best liberty, a seat. and i'm sorry, this is a wrong expectation be you will have to see of been is non,

you want me to go on. but there will be clearly entities. you've got to impose the western democratic system on both. i'm a plant evolved and didn't go order with hi, good afternoon for russia now. we're going to southern france, next, frustrated firefighters that are the latest, went to the population, refusing to pout the government's new cove legislation. almost $200.00 of them in the elk dog province have not been suspended without pay until the can only return to work after they've been job situations. one know, many of facing after the government produced

a mandatory vaccination campaign on september the 15th that's going to challenge events came from charlotte either. it's a case that's got a lot of attention this one. yeah. yeah, that's right, because we're now getting a sense of what the resistance is here from key work is across france to the idea of not just the obligatory vaccination, but then showing that you've been vaccinated by the use of this health past. this is a health pass which you show not only for some places of work, but also for cafes, restaurants, bars, cinemas, cultural places to show that you've either had to vaccination shots a if it's pfizer or astrazeneca, or the one if it's the johnson and johnson, all that you've had a recent test that shows that you cove it negative, but for these key workers, they have to show that they are w vaccinated to be able to continue to work. however, as you just mentioned, in the southeast of france, in region, just above the city of niece, almost 200 firefighters,

have since been suspended because their refusal outright to comply with this new regime. they have said, we're not showing you whether or not we've been vaccinated to we don't know if they've even been vaccinated. this is more for them about the idea that they are refusing to give over that information to their employees. and as a result, they've been suspended likely, according to the new regulations without pay as well. at now, just to give you a sense of how many individuals that is, this is about 13 percent of all of the firefighters in this particular region. so you can imagine that that is likely to have a pretty big impact. it's not the 1st time that fire fighters have shown resistance to this idea of the house past. we know that some unions even took a case to the european court of human rights in august. they may have failed, but the union says it's going to continue to fight for the cause. the aim is not at all to increase the number of strikers. all protesters but to protect staff who do

not wish to be vaccinated and who are waiting for a solution. it's not just firefighters, either. this is something that is impacting other key workers, such as health workers. here in france, we understand that there are around 20000 medical staff. this could be doctors and nurses care staff caregivers who have been suspended since this obligation to show that you are vaccinated. car came into force on september 15th now is thought though that the figure could be somewhat higher because that doesn't necessarily include figures from private hospitals. however, while there are 2700000 workers in the health sector here, franklin, you might think, oh, well, you know, 20000 isn't that many unions have told us every member of staff that is lost, every member of staff that is not working. that has a wider impact,

an impact on the services that they're able to offer, as well as other staff who continue to work. so, you know, we know that this is a problem here of france. we've had almost 3 months now of weekly protests against this idea. this mandatory health pastor show your vaccination statement and you know, it has provoked a huge amount of anger here in france and that health pass is now being extended in the last few days. it's been extended to children as young as 12 years old, meaning that b 2 will have to show that they're fully vaccinated or could be negative if they want to go to the cinema an outing with their friends. even. we've heard that that will be needed for school outings, but not necessarily to go to school at the moment. and we've heard that while originally this health pastors only supposed to be in place until about november 15th, the government is already muted. the suggestion that it could be looking at legislating to make that health pass obligatory up until the summer of 2022. she can imagine if

people have been angry up until this point, this is likely to only solidify that and get even more if that goes ahead. yeah, totally get it. and it costs more and more countries now talking about maybe a 4th wave of who and already in it goes on and on. doesn't it, charlotte, thanks to bring this up to speed from where you are there. next, holland's justice minister says his country's being blackmailed by the e. you of the block threatened to withdraw funds if some polish regions failed to recognize l g b t writes for districts have already back down there and revoked their policies that discriminated against the gay community. early this month through european commission told the regions that it would with hold over a $120000000.00 euros if the declarations remained in force, it comes 2 months off the block initiated legal action against the country as a whole for alleged violations of l. g. b t writes, but all that said, money are apparently unhappy with the intervention like this by the

e. so personally, i would have, i believe that the european union should not interfere with what's happening and pulling it off. they should not act like that, especially if the city deserves that money and should be given it handled ease and sanctions of this type should not be imposed. i don't, i think the european union is right. how government is very homophobic. i agree with europe, the city authorities have the right to not to promote analogy between everyone has this rise in europe in union should find another way of them. i said, i'm not a fan of pro l g b t zones. but on the other hand, everyone has it right to their own life communion, on the part of the european union. it is very unfair. such things should not be combined. here is the man and here's the money there. lately, separate matters. i think nothing should be done by force it. there is no such need in poland. you do not have to force anything. local governors justified the u. turn saying they're not ready to be accountable for the financial loss when expert we heard from told of such an approach show by the

e. you to maintain or try to. anyway, unity in the block is a path to dictatorship. every local power should act according to the wheel, and i have a lawful of a degree of power, especially in this case, especially in this case. so, you know, i'm not entering into the subject matter, not talking about about lesbian gauge on gender song. i'm talking about the general view, the general principle that should be a well respected by the european union, unless the european union wants to become a selfless sort of autocracy or dictatorship, i think is a very democratic choice. i think that the former communist count is like paula local municipality locum province's so local powers. they have power enough according to the constitution to act according to the will if it is

something which is completely legitimated and should be understood and should be allowed. also the santa meantime, also after elections in germany last weekend. there are reports of multiple violations during voting there. in one instance, ballot papers were delivered to the wrong districts and people also to q for hours . they said some other polling stations. the government says, since admitted there were several incidents across the country. yeah, this is, i mean, these incidents have been discovered and they are being discussed intensively in such a major city in germany, in the city where we are. and i think that is exactly where it belongs. so a bit more about what exactly went wrong in small detail during those elections. his anastasio tomachov. ah, it all started when mock election forecasts for accidentally at 2 days ahead of devote to public broadcast to briefly displayed a ticker was the projected results during an evening quiz program. and today's lab

here only hours before pollock station close to the free voters party leader, also pleated forecast results. the publication of paul's and projections on election day is strictly prohibited, was fines up to $50000.00 euros. but the party had claims. this was an accident. you'll be an adult smith. impunity we will clarify this with the federal returning officer. it was just a miss apple nice. there was no intention to break any laws. she to push jordan and some districts voters had to stand in line for hours. some even had to wait well after the official closing time of 6 pm to cast about the delay was caused by incorrect ballots being distributed to the wrong neighborhoods. the labels on the ballot boxes did not match the contents resulting in hundreds of people voting for candidates from other areas. and due to high number of wrong tickets. and therefore, difficulty in counting votes. one of the berlin districts had to publish estimates

instead of results. it also took longer to deliver de correct ballads because streets were closed due to the bell in march, and on the same day, which about $25000.00 people attended. the marathon should not have taken place on the election day. the most important act to which citizens express political will, must not fall victim to a commercial sports event. if the entire city center has paralyzed traffic, that is an extreme obstruction. mm. well, as chief election official even admitted that she knew about the labeling issue back in august, but ballots were shipped anyway. so following white spirit criticism for a series of organizational and blunders, the chief election officer has an asked her resignation. this hellish goodman, we will have to seriously investigate whether voters were not able to cast their vote. this allegedly happened because they were not provided with a sufficient amount of ballot papers or the correct ballot papers. an election is

only democratic when all voters are able to use their right to vote. finally, a full investigation and to mismanagement is still being conducted. was its conclusions expected next week. after that, experts predict legal challenges to the results that may start pouring in? who key opposed to plus why things looking for these and so far this friday so much more l t dot com or i have a socials. it said $27.00 past the hour, reporting for moscow. my name is kevin owen. thank you for watching this update. shore bright to come and then on our to international news views. hughes ah, by the panoramic no ship you know, borders and just like to nationalities then you polish as a merge, we don't have a therapy. we don't of actually,

the whole world needs to be ready. people are judgment, common crisis with we can do better, we should be doing better. every one is contributing each in their own way. but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenge is great to response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together with join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. i'll be speaking the yes of the world politics sport business. i'm sure business. i'll see you then. mm. imagine picking up a future textbook on the early years of the 21st century. what are the chapters

cold, gun violence, school shootings, homelessness? first, it was my job then it was my family. didn't was my savings. i have nothing. i have nothing and it's not like i don't try. i look for resources, i look for jobs. i look for everything i can to make this pass and i end up doing is passing the road to the american dream paved with dead refugees. it's this very idealized image. all those older america, native americans look past the deaths that happen every single day. this is a modern history of the usa, my america on our t ah ah,

the international criminal court prosecutor is looking to resume his investigation into war crimes which were committed in afghanistan. however, one country has already been granted a sort of immunity from any wrong doing. we will tell you why the united states is being exempted in the vine agenda is on the verge of collapse as one, a democrat senator is calling this spending plan. this school and sanity despite person and by and saying the bill will cost 0 dollars. something is adding up and we're going to give you the $360.00 view and talking about insanity and the last 48 hours of the trump world has been pretty insane as major stories about the former president and his staff has been released with most put in the entire organization in a very negative light. we go straight to those who know the campaign and get their take on the timing and what is the truth? and what should we just left to the tabloids and johnstone joined us to talk about his latest project, which exposes the dark secrets would shed light on the world's power structure.
