sport business, i'm show business. i'll see you then. mm hm. headlines for this. our lab one r t st. clashes, blocking cords and a heavy, dry caption. italian government is racing for a wave of civil unrest as it rolls out. 9 to treat covey. green cost is for all workers what we want to use for this green possible to be revoked. if this doesn't happen, we will close the port to think that the green pass is an unlawful tool, an improper one that should not be forced to form the workers because it is discriminatory. billionaire, facebook boss mug soccer bug is accused of election meddling as were searches for the new york post to claim his donations aimed at an hosting turned out in u. s. swing states may have indeed helped joe biden get into the white house. also a u. s. judge accuses or d c,

dock workers. meantime, intrigues are outraged over the drastic new measures and all vowing to block the cities port in protest. please. so we are here to protest against the green bass for workers would think that the green pass is an unlawful tool, an improper one that should not be forced upon the workers because it is discriminatory. so we are demonstrating against this government degree. what we want is for this green pass law to be revolt. if this doesn't happen, we will close the port. we don't want to go up against the government and we certainly don't want to book to port because we have families to feed whatever happens even if the government makes a u turn and delays, the implementation of the law. we will strike any way to send a message to the city and above all, to show solidarity with all italian workers. mass rallies are planned and several italian cities throughout this friday. and police are bracing for a repeat of last week's violence scenes in rome.

ah, well, despite the public outcry, the italian government is refusing to back down. now, it has already met the national 80 percent target for vaccinations, meaning heard immunity has been achieved. however, the government for some reason, wants to go further. artes charlotte dubiously now has more on the public resistance to cove measures across europe. when italy's government last month sworn that it would bring in the new green card, no pay decree, it expected the announcement to trigger an enormous acceleration of vaccinations. however, that has not materialized while job rates didn't initially increase the has since been a steep decline. and with around 2500000 workers still unvaccinated,

there are concerns, more violent rallies could ensue. italians are not the only ones who have been taking to the streets to express their anger. hearing france weekly protests against health passes and mandatory vaccination of health workers are continuing. there's a concern that those protests could be about to get a boost to of, to francis government announced that it wants to extend the use of health policies up until possibly the summer of 2022 already voices of discontent or rising faculty to pakistan. do they're not going to have a carte blanche until the 31st of july 2020 to parliament must decide. it's an attack on freedom's individual and collective freedoms. in a parliamentary democracy, it can only be done through parliament. all those plans by the french government

also seemed to be in contrast to advice that was recently given by the country's own scientific council. it suggested that it to covey situation remains under control. health passes could be dumped far sooner in this scenario. the cobra pass system could be canceled between november the 15th and the end of the year. if there are low case levels nationally. it's a waiting phase in order to prepare to cancel the past system, which will allow us to limit the risk and scale of a possible new wave in december, january, adding fuel to the fire form friday in france, test to show that your covey negative will no longer be free for those who are vaccinated. another carrot and stick kamesia perhaps. but the issue isn't specifically about the coven jab. the coping pandemic is seen government across europe, flip flopping on policy, ignoring advice. it's come from their own scientific advises. and all of these says

perhaps deepened divisions, enact many in europe, wondering if they governments are really working in their best interests. charlotte g. blue sky. i'll see paris or we can, i'll speak with her francesco, jubilee, a president of a future nation of conservative thing. time joining us live here were naughty international, great to see today. thanks for coming on the program. several other. com. thank you for the fish was a pleasure to have you with us today. i was gonna say that there are several other countries that are all going down this up mandatory vaccination route i. e, australia, and france. but italy's government is taking it further than anybody else. why? why do you think that is is quite strange. i mean that in this moment we are not leaving in our country, fortunately. call with emergency, i mean, they call the, the infections are low. and the in the same time, say we are one of the hype this country in the europe for the coughing vaccination

. we have 85 percent of the population with one dose of the vaccine and we have over that 70 percent of the population with to those of the vaccine. but in the same time, we are the only country, not only europe, but the only country, all over the ward, where you must have the so called green pass to, to go to work and disease. quite the irrational and the situation in our country that we have a medium of people with that without the vaccination and 3 medium of people without the vaccination who are workers. so the risk of these major off today is to stop some important that strategic sector. we know this strikes it in the bar to of 3 asked it, but in the same time there are lots of small or medium industry where there are 2025 percent of the work without a green pass. so also from an economic perspective and from such our perspective with this frank that we saw in the last 2 weeks in rome about all over the country

there. we saw sharp paralysis because of the green box. and we don't understand why our government is pushing. reason music is very strong because i repeat the lots of people, the vaccine, but the you can add the vaccine. and so you are not the so called novak the discretion. sometimes the people use but the you can have the maxine and you can meet again the museum of the green pass because the green pass is against also some rice go. i'm so i do, i do apologize, but i must jump in here. you obviously have a lot, a lot of things to say here and clearly you're passionate about the subject, but i want to ask you, the italian government has reached its proposed target of 80 percent vaccination. that means they have reached that target of heard immunity should not then the case be that the lives of every day italians go back to normal. now, i totally agree with you. there are many countries, for example,

in the stand for europe after europe, where, for example, the mascot is not mandatory the inside, but in our country we mask the where mosque also inside and in the same times. and we still have some restriction, for example, to go to, to, to some place it to go to the restaurant. we still maintain some restrictions that are very, very dry. and that in these moments, and because of the number of the call with there are not rational. so a lot of italians are asking to our government, why do you continue to put these in users that are very 3? is the government, the government is saying anything, francesco, is the government answering that question? you know, does government, it is very strange government because we have an ego like matter. druggie that the very influential people. but in the same time, inside the government, there are some political part like for example, the left democratic or we're definitely in favor of this kind of major. but we have also some political part like legal for example,

and matthew. so we need locked off the interview in a lot of the place. i'd say that he's against the nature of the green passage. but the in this moment, the premier murder druggie said also today and yesterday that you will continue in, in this way. the idea of the government is to have a high number of people, but the thing is we already have these high number also compared to come to like francesco, germany let's, let's just take a step back for a moment here. let's talk about the economic issues here. because it's a pretty serious point to make care, for example barrow dock workers right now in the enormous port city of tree us in nor northeast in italy, northern italy, they're threatening to shut down the port. now if that happens, we've got to, we've already got a nationwide issue across europe right now with a serious supplying chain problems with truckers who are not going across europe right now. if the doc so shut down in italy, this going to get ugly, for all of the, all of the bits and pieces that come up northwards through all of europe. this is

going to get ugly. francesco, of course, of course, is going to be ugly, but you're talking about the part of threats that we can also talk about the public transportation. we can do another example. the seat of milano, milan is the 2nd c, p in italy, and the 25 percent of the work are inside the public transportation in atlanta. they don't have the vaccine, they don't have the green pass. so probably they're going to paralyze the public transportation in the land, but we can also talk about the logistics system, not only the part of that, but also in the south. there are many big parker and other logistic import, an industry where the 2015 percent of the workers that they don't have the vaccine . so we have to decide what to do. we can stop our, our economy, especially. we can stop our economy, but it's not just the case of stopping the economy. this is also a case of stuffing people's lives. they are saying you can't look, you cannot work unless you are injected with one of these vaccines, correct?

i mean, the opponents are saying, so these mandatory coping policies are illegal. what's your view? you are right, because is not only a point of view from the economy. i mean, it's very important economy, but there is also other things that the, i mean it's quite important. you know, the market is the freedom. i mean, we have the constitution and we had to call one of our constitutional say that italy is that are probably founded on the work. and the right to work is there is a constitutional right. and in the same times, without the green pass, you can enter in a restaurant without the green pass. you can enter in a hotel without a green pass. you can think i'd be trained, for example, if you want to move from rama to me or from room. i'm not pleased with an i is be train. you can to keep the if you don't have the green pass. so this is the thing also from a freedom of the people. this is our economy citizens, they pay the taxes normally see that the what is happening in our country and i think is very daniel also from his social point of view is that we are creating some teaches him to start the ac didn't and other than without the vaccines,

the 3rd. 5 the b c does him and he's not correcting the democracy at 70. some analyst is saying that in some of these areas that creating a division where those reactions are on this side, unvaccinated on this side. but it's, it's almost like a method of divide and conquer francesco, jubilee president of the future nation thing. thank a real pleasure having you on plans for joining us here on our team. and i thank you very much. thank you. and while mandatory cobra shots are becoming wide spread in europe, doctors here in russia are trying to reach the same goal through public awareness. the mission of a lung specialist who is videos helping people understand the virus and stay safe of under him. a huge online following a story, features and documentary dr. cove, it, which will be showing up all day here on auto and national with for now just a very quick preview. ah, beautiful job ocean with what it says i'm. it was a little bit of an initial i can lease the vehicle

with freshman, which total would you think that that would cost if that's something you would preview them with the cool. got us next 4 percent of our your properties was from watson. he brought home with a, with edlio viceroy with the theme i was given your cisco blog slippery news. i will continue to won wonderful schedules poodle in john coach. if it's a better one. what do you think that us, i mean, on i visits and we spend it down,

this is our to international facebook, c, e o mach zak. a book may have used his vast wealth to swing by 2020 presidential election in jo biden's favor. according to a study for the new york post, researchers found that his donations to enact torrell organizations heavily favored left leaning districts. in particular, in swing states, the democrats ended up winning the 2020 election was stolen, it was likely bought by one of the world's wealthiest and most powerful man pouring his money through legal loopholes. he found that a targeted private takeover of government election operations by law, mentally, non partisan, but demonstrably ideological nonprofit organizations. we should stress that there is no suggestion of our illegality in soccer bugs, donations. and the facebook boss himself says he only gave to non partisan organizations. last month,

priscilla and i donated $300000000.00 to support election officials with the infrastructure they need to administer the vote to day were committing an additional $100000000.00 to make sure that every jurisdiction that needs funding to help people vote safely can get is one of the main beneficiaries of the facebook funding for the or was that a via center for election innovation and research. and it's our hit back at the new york posts claims saying it was proud to assist both republicans and democrats in the election. a journalist daniel lazar thinks private funding plays a pivotal role in the outcome of your selections. this is the privatization of elections. and when you privatize elections, essentially, you undermine their neutrality and their objectivity. so it's very possible that this money helps your voters as a certain direction and help determine the outcome of the election. the electoral process from the u. s. is a mess. this is the only country where this takes place. election should be

entirely government funded. they should be entirely neutral and objective. they should not favor any party whatsoever. and there's no reason to have an injection of private money of this magnitude. there should be reform process, but it's just not going to happen because the system is completely broken and it's totally out of control. and while billionaires a free to try and swing elections, those who riot against voting results wind up in prison. and on that story, a u. s. judge has ruled that a jail violated the rights of a suspect in the capitol hill, riots by denying him medical treatment. christopher warren is being held in a washington dc detention facility on multiple criminal charges over his role in january 6 riots. he does so have a form of blood cancer and broke his wrist while in custody in may. it was then that a doctor prescribe surgery which has still not been provided. and after reviewing

the case, the federal judge held prison officials and civil contempt and brian to the delay in treatment as inexcusable. i find that the civil rights of the defendant have been abused. i don't know if it's because he's a january 6 defendant or not. but i find this matter should be referred to the attorney general of the united states for a civil rights investigation into whether the dc department of corrections is violating the civil rights of january 6 defendants in this and maybe other cases we spoke with a tony albert watkins, who's representing several suspects in the capitol hill, riots. he says the case is part of an overall disrespect shown towards the detainees. there are a switch for j 6 in which were involved in january 6 will be living relatively el rey of disrespect by individuals who are working for facilities, which howard the january 6th dependent. you know,

i anticipate if there is a problem, the problem will be taken care of. and sure if the problem was not taken care of in short order, i assure you, my opinion, wilmot, order to be taken care of and people will be compelled to address the consequences of not living up to their obligations pursuant to a federal judges for more than 650 people have been arrested nationwide for alleged involvement in january 6, riots back then, supporters of the outgoing president, donald trump stole the capital building, trying to stop congress from certifying jo biden's election victory out of the original number. 78 is still in jail, pending trial, mostly on charges of assaulting police officers will offer the federal ruling d. c, corrections department responded saying it's committed to ensuring that all inmates have access to health care in a timely and efficient manner. but albert watkins again believes the problems go

far beyond any lack of medical care. and so when you have a criminal history who are being confined in dc and over 5 children restrictions in clash and personnel who are working on making the lives of those, the french typical or simply not taking those measures necessary to fully protect them from other. ready sure, i can find it. it traverses from confined to torture. and that's the problem. i 20 past the hour here at moscow still to come in this program, us cities of boosting that police budget months off to all those calls to defend the police that comes offer a surgeon violent crime. more of that story and some others just a moment. mm. hm,

ah when europe is mentioned to what do you think a place an idea, a commonplace with diverging ideas? maybe you think of the european union, think what you wish, but europe is in crisis. it must choose between being in the ideological construct or a place with real people and real needs. when else seemed wrong, when all groups just don't a whole new world, yes, to shape out. the same becomes the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground.

join me every thursday on the alex simon, sure. and i'll be speaking to guess when the world of politics, sport, business, i'm show business. i'll see you then. oh. all right into the 2nd half of your friday program here when all t international. so commuters here in moscow can now travel on the, on the ground just by showing that faces the russian capitals on rolling a new facial recognition payment system. the 1st time it's been done on such a scale swati corresponding to meet you. power went to check it out. pasco smash. oh so, so it's one of the oldest subway systems in the world that they saw all the way back to the 19 thirty's. however, since then it's never stopped growing, evolving and modernizing and today is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful

and technologically advanced subway systems on the planet with millions of passengers every day. one of the key features of the moscow natural system has become the numerous ways people can pay for their ride. they can use our universal transit card like this, their regular bank card, a smartphone smart watch, and now even just their face to pay for a ride called face pay. the system uses the latest biometric technology to make getting in to the metro is hassle free as possible. a camera scans the passengers faces at the turnstile, matches the biometric data to his database, finds each person's account an associated bankcard to charge the fair and the gates open. all that takes about as long as a regular car transaction at the gate, just a 2nd or 2. the say space system has been in test mode since december 2020 with over 15000 people taking part in that says, however, as of october 15th,

the system will become available to all passengers and work on all $241.00 stations of the moscow metro transit authorities are already hailing this as the largest scale application of such technology in the world. but is everyone ready to switch to the new method? less asks and passengers. no legos, why not? it's step into the future. it's practical and convenient. it'll have to carry called around with the that's why it use it, which there super pull some articles, right? negative things about face pe, technology for example. they suggest someone can use a picture of you to pay, solve, use this technology a bit later when it's been tested in real life, though it doesn't. and then yeah, it is practical, but at the same time, a bit suspicious. i'm pretty conservative. plan comes to such things. i don't like the idea of in my face. i think it may be used to control you. while it seems not every one as eager to use the new system, yet. however, the creators say there's really nothing to fear can yes, those are of course,

who we protect whole is a passionate date and stuart securely banking data, which is used for payments is still by banks. we have nothing to do with it. and the photos that passengers download in our app to register. i still it as biometric, keith, so we did not. so a passenger, photos, transit, all authorities say the face based system will never become mandatory or replacing of the other payment system. they will all stay in place and they say it's just a nice little bonus. but the authority to hope that it becomes popular and that the new biometric technology will cut down on wait time for the millions of people that use the moscow metro every single day. i mean, she power, gar, t, moscow. cities across america are raising their law enforcement budgets. now this follows of sojourn crime since last year, when many local authorities cut spending following the whole be fun, the police movement while new york's new police budget is actually being hiked up now by 200000000 dollars. in ela,

about 41000000 bucks has been added. a funding was caught there off the last year's riots over the killing of george floyd. and the mayor of dallas, texas has reversed police cuts, saying the city now needs to hire more offices than ever. will new york's or dramatic rise and crime during september, often nearly a $1000000000.00 was shifted away from the police to other departments. los angeles has also suffered this year with a homicide rate hitting a 10 year high in the summer. and dallas says, grappling with a spike in violent crime as well. and last year homeless eyes there were up by one quarter hitting a 20 year record. well, it is a patent scene across the us since the killing of george floyd in minneapolis and the de fun, the police movement that followed the retired that police officer, dominic ego things. money alone is not going to solve this problem. you're a mirror and you're going to appease the mob and you're going to say, yes, we're going to define our agency that monetarily as taking away from the support of the village. because you're not keeping the police equipped, educated, a,

whatever they need it. and you're also sending in the police officers the message to police officers off. i don't value you versus the opinions of, of the angry mob. so you're, you're taking it on both those fronts. we already have, we do have a problem with bad apples and law enforcement and we need to have a stricter hiring policy. we need to have better training, but people's keep thinking that law enforcement, your, your 1st responder, st cops is the number one, prevention to solve all crime problems when they're not looking at the judges are not looking at the public defender's are not looking at that. the judicial system and they're, they're thinking that either taking away or putting more funding in is going to solve these problems in the 1st place. it's, it is such a ridiculous problem. it's never going to end, but it's, it's political. it is purely political. that's the biggest problem we're having berlin's sparking it's, i should say, sparkling new air hub is now dealing with a full passenger load for the 1st time. it's after a decade, long,

construction delay, and billions, and huge over spending. though it opened to the high to the pandemic and with restrictions being lifted, brandon book apple, his buckling under the strain as a correspondent, peter oliver. now reports the october school holidays. here in germany, we're always going to be the 1st real test for berlin's beleaguered view. apple not gone great. the new b r as a stunner dear to hand in your luggage the evening before your flight and then turn up for hours in advance for the flight. you might as well go by car to leipzig and fly from there on time. capital city airport, can it get even worse at the b r, the be our airport is sinking into chaos. and now it is also at risk of insolvency without state aid, the airport is hardly viable. avoid b r and take another airport just because they stand on staff. the guests are having to turn up at the airport for hours in advance. and that with children,

passengers being advised to arrive 4 hours before their flights as a mixture of covey restrictions. and staff shortages bite, g to increase passenger volume at the start of the holiday season. we expect long awaits at jackins and security control at berlin brandenburg airport. for this reason, we would like to ask you to be at the airport at least 240 minutes before departure . obviously this isn't pleasant for travelers, but it's just the latest misstep in a long line of problems for this transport hub, which only opened last year after some serious delays. originally scheduled to start flights in 2011 plans for the airport. started in the early ninety's in 2009 . the budget for the project was just on the 3000000000 euro, which with hindsight seems wildly optimistic. the construction came in over $7000000000.00 euro with additional work still required that will cost close to

another $3000000000.00 even after 3 parliamentary committee investigations. no one is taken responsibility for the airport debacle. it became a job quite a few years ago. already. a was budget, i think initially around $2000000000.00 euros odd build airport, us were generally an airport of the size would cost gold and then it was for little but sakes. and i think the current total now including all the subsidies regarding to wrapped around $7000000000.00. and it's going and they're talking about having to put another 2000000000 subsidies into just keep it and running until 2046. ah, for that kind of money they could have built for airports. this is a public project right from beginning or i should not, for instance, for a from beginning who was supposed to be a private project and nobody wanted to do it in this low.
