5:01 am
all right, it is a noon on saturday here in moscow. this is auntie international. a very welcome to you. so the horrific killing of a british politician has not been declared a terrorist incident. and david amos, a long serving conservative member of parliament, was fatally stopped on friday while meeting his constituents in essex. a 25 year old man reported to be a british, national of somali origin has been arrested on suspicion of moda ortiz a shot here was dashti reports or conservative. and he said, david amos has died following a multiple, stopping during a constituency surgery meeting out the methodist church. what exactly that is. it's an opportunity the members of the public to meet with the local m p face to face and discuss local political issues. but around midday,
5:02 am
the young man ran into the building wielding a knife before attacking the veteran politician and killing him. her magic for treating him out the sea while he was fighting for his life. but he tragically passed away on the scene. the suspect is 25 years of age, he was arrested and a knife was recovered here at the scene, he is now in custody. now the police say that they're not looking for anybody else in relation to this incident in a david a most was 69. he spent for decades in politics. he currently held his seats since 997, but was a serving m p 's. since 1983, making him one of the longest standing m p. 's in government. now he was a big voice in many campaigns, not least, the breck that campaign, and also a huge animal rights advocate as well. sadly, he leaves behind a wife and 5 children. what we are seeing now is tributes and statements pouring in,
5:03 am
cross the political spectrum. we've also heard from forest johnson at the prime minister. he was one of the kindest, nicest, those gentle people in politics. and he also had an outstanding record of passing laws to help the most vulnerable david with a man who believe passionately in this country and in its future as the nation is in an absolute state of shock. many also are now calling for more security unsafe for protocols for members of parliament in britain, especially considering the really chilling similarities to the murder of joe cox who was stopped short to death back in 2016 again. that was just before her very own constituency surgery meeting. it's also really sad to know that said david. a message last tweet was actually talking about this constituency surgery invitation,
5:04 am
saying to the local community to com and chat to him face to face. so for many m p 's, this is a really pastor, no tragedy for them on to terrible reminder of the very real risks that they face in the jobs of a normal friday turns. very hiring and very violent indeed, and a much investigation is now underway. david i met was a frequent guest here when i see where he shared his views on u. k. politics. joining me now for more on this is conservative m p for south and west said david amos congress on the same day, 983. is this gentleman we need to have a government who know what they're doing. i don't mind hard work. in fact, the already is it will go back to the so as of constituents i had when i used to represent possible and i don't think it's anything to do with policy politics and the number of seats. david, thanks to speaking to us earlier,
5:05 am
we discussed the implications of the politicians murder and the suspected linked to islamist terrorism with our guests. it follows the terror attack very recently in no way also due to islamic motivation. and it's 4 major terrorist attacks in afghanistan. but when you stop murdering and then p n p, you from the constituent that you are raising it to a completely different level, because now you're talking about drink, an elected representative in the name of some di ology. and i think that there's no question that the british government is going to have to take a very serious measures. so it's, it's, it's the level of any previous attack, at least in the u. k. we've had a big refugee issue with in europe throughout europe. not just the u. k. and so now this potentially could create even more friction. ah,
5:06 am
an anti refugee type feeling within, within certain populations, it's a potential. how do you ensure security, you don't want to cut off connections to your, to your constituents? do we do a better job as far as refugees and ensuring that their background do we provide more security to the m p 's as well it's it's just a travesty of the european union as challenging its own member states over the way they're pushing back. migraines trying to enter the block, the latest development that you, you home with. as commissioner someone, the envoys from 3 eastern states calling the situation on that board. as dire, ortiz charla do. whisky picks up the story. the issue is having to hang its head in shoulder over the way its board of forces are treating migrants just trying to cross into the block. this is no longer just about fortress europe and the
5:07 am
extensive fence building and surveillance systems that are being put in place on its eastern borders. know in recent weeks, more concerning incidence over the way that my grants are treated to have been exposed in croatia, 3 border police officers have been suspended of being filmed violently pushing back people at the border. ah and that's not just confined to croatia, greek border officers are also subject to investigations over hundreds of cases of alleged push backs. mm.
5:08 am
now in lithuania, more violations have been reported. the use own board, the chief admitting the problem was wider than previously known. there are, if i remember correctly. now, 17 almost 20. let's say, serious insta reports for the suspicion of the violation of fundamental rights. and matthew ania, mcgary went on to say the reason was down to how lithuanian law was being interpreted. and the question was, was that compatible with e you legislation? now lithuania is currently a hot spot for migrant crossings. now lithuania is interior minister says migrant have to enter at certain points. we have taken decisions in national laws that one can only until su ania through a legal way that is through a border check point, or by filing their request with our embassy. but these all relatively new rules
5:09 am
only adopted in the past few months and the rule appears to be on a collision course with the e u, so called shrinking buddhist code that says people seeking asylum cannot be forced back against their will cools, are now coming from the highest ranks for action shocking finding solid reports had to long line of reports and unacceptable. normalization of push backs violence, fierce asylum seekers and migrants. high time for the counsellor of europe, states to investigate effectively. take action, hold each other to account, and such serious human rights violations was half words, yet all they too little too late. these allegations of migrants, refugees being beaten. rob was treated and forced back over the ears, eastern borders, illegally, not new, nor have they blew, particularly happening in sequence, leaving many to believe that the
5:10 am
e u itself may have essentially been complicit for not having already taken more concrete action. all this to you to want to promote to rebel lee brown border. we've opened society in the past. they wanted to legalize immigration more and is surely if for, if they are refugees or but to population or are or sty 2 any more or 2 more immigration. and dervishes y e u were we left to demonstrate that eats it, promotes e u was strong or extra, extra on our board us. otherwise the nation are both us will be more and more erected and strength front, like you're like in hungary. this is the trends, more immigration is as seen as the security problem because of islamist in 5th crating. so it's more and more as sensitive subject capacity out here at moscow
5:11 am
and tough new covey rules and our to the 2nd day in italy. and they've been met with strikes huge protests, an angry transport. disruptions are so called green passes and are mandatory if anyone who wants to go to work the thousands of people gathered in rome on friday, urging the government of scraps. the new rules seem overly harsh under the system, employees have to show proof of oxidation or recovery from coded or a negative test. all go without. the authorities have defended the system saying it's the best way of preventing further locked down. the port worker's intrigues, which is a key maritime gateway for europe, a threatening to bring supply chains to a grinding standstill if the government doesn't. and so we went to try and spoke with someone based on we are here to protest against the green bus for workers. would think that the green bus is an unlawful tool and improve one that should not
5:12 am
be forced upon the workers because it is discriminatory. so we are demonstrating against this government decree and also today constitution is being trampled on. what is happening today is like by can 938 when i say no to this discrimination under the deepening class divide, we're not looking for confrontation, both openness and opportunity for reasoning. here we are talking about economic recovery, but whose economic recovery here families less even more in crisis. those who previously could not make it until the end of the month now find themselves in ridge of $200.00 or 300 years less from having to pay for the test. well, france is also ramping up the pressure on people to get their shots health passes and are required to enter almost all public places. and for some reason, free pcr tests for the unimed vaccinated have now been entirely scrapped. so we got reaction on the streets of the french capital. no, on the obligatory making the health bus compulsory in france, the all forms of employment seems excessive to me, maybe a little counterproductive. i don't think we can have this situation in france
5:13 am
because there is already a lot of resistance to the health path focus it's. i think it's very revealing that europe is shifting towards and increasingly totalitarian logic with everyone using the health and safety argument. personally, i'm scared because i'm not vaccinated, not because i'm an anti vaccine. that because we have created this anti vac label in france, which lumps everyone together and further divide society on french democracy is no longer a real democracy. and we're obliging people to get vaccinated under the pretext of everyone's house and safety friends could do this, but it's obviously not ideal, but i doubt it would last. i think that people would strongly speak out against at home in the still become hearing on saturday program lie for moscow will take you on a journey to russia is extreme nor where a floating nuclear power plant is reading new life into a coastal town. fascinating story actually is coming up in just a month. the news
5:14 am
join me every thursday on the alex salmon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport. business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. me . well the jig is ah, president other land merican country armed with volcano energy is calling out the wall street and the whole financier class ah, that also for eric room identify 2 types of freedom, freedom from and freedom to. and while we all idealized the lesser achieving the former, the freedom from use and abuse is no small feat in this day and age. this is especially
5:15 am
true for africa, which, for centuries has been exploited under all sorts of pretext. what needs to happen with the continent to truly take its deserve place in the world? oh, it is good to have you with us today. so a remote town in russia's eastern arctic is experiencing an economic boom after being hooked up to the world's 1st floating atomic power plant is now becoming a vital link in the fast growing northern shipping route. so i'll see that causes in rush cough made the long journey to have yak oh, we are in the vic, russia's northern rose city where the main job is to survive cold,
5:16 am
extreme weather and hostile environment. when the soviet union collapsed, this place used to be a ghost hour. i was want to rushes bustling seaports along the northern sea route. the country's ambitious project in the arctic aim to reshape international trade project is also the site of a daunting experiment, which made it the 1st city in the world powered by floating nuclear reactors. let's see what life was like. in russia's atomic boone town. we are like a big family emetic nationality people are actually friends with each other here. let me show you something. what did you eat for dinner yesterday? yes. i don't have dinner on the diet. green onions. 16. $20.00. some parts of the city. it looked like a ghost out. the snow still turned blacks are
5:17 am
ivank is located in chicago. the country's most eastern region which borders alaska . it's not an island but local, still referred to the rest of russia as the mainland. perhaps because of how isolated the field, for instance, there are no permanent roads or railway tracks leading to perfect. your only options would be ice breakers or airplanes. while we're not into that yet, but we're already tired of traveling. ha has been what's 24? no. over 24 hours is for left moscow and we're still flying across russia. first, we flew to another severest than further east to the city of muggy down. ha! then we had to stay here overnight and now it's our final lack a 2 hour fly to pick on one on the soviet era. airplanes with the
5:18 am
a and 28 that took us to perfect, have the smallest restroom i've ever been and but no complaints. we're, we're going, it's not about comfort flu one of the 1st things that strike you into that is that there are no trees just nothing. the land here is so frozen, nothing grows on it. and that makes the landscape bleak and sadly boring. so to live in things up, the coloring buildings and orange or pink is probably not the worst idea. the next notorious for harsh rather. ah. but it's not just about the cold. a. zach is actually so ferocious there are videos of
5:19 am
people falling old were thrown across the street, not being able to stand up with a local resident soya soccer shows of her winter outfit. he mink fur coat, she knows animal advocates won't like it and she doesn't care in perfect. if you're not dress warm enough since you die. you shouldn't have burned the nurse how cold it had been winter and today the temperature drops as low as minus 45 minus put 8 degrees celsius gets very cold and you still go out on the street. of course, harsh climate dictates every aspect of physics life. let me show you something
5:20 am
because if the permafrost, most of the cities communications run above ground and are hidden inside concrete boxes like this one right here. and this also became a popular alternative for regular sidewalks, which some times are impassable, especially in winters i. so as they say one in rome, or in perfect, we're gonna hop on one of the communication lines and get around like real locals with most of the residential buildings. inter that have been built on pilots. the space left between the 1st floor and permanently frozen ground helps to keep houses warm, but it looks like somebody has gone even further in fighting the cold. there was a building in fact that has empty glass bottles fit right into the was and you can literally see this from the outside. this extra layer of air is supposed to save up
5:21 am
heat. i've never heard of that technology. i'm not sure if it works and there is no way to check because the building has been abandoned. but i, i guess if you wanna survive in chicago, you gotta stay creative. the city still keeps lots of soviet era structures and monuments, most of which have been around since back was founded in 9030. i was gold, another precious metals that attracted people and turned the place into an arctic blue town initially to vac was a place of at least 3 glock camps. cheap labor came in handy in the rapidly growing settlement. the collapse of the soviet union had a devastating effect on the deck with almost no support from the mainland. the city quickly lost half of its population and lot of residential buildings were left completely abandoned. some parts of the city still looked like a ghost. our people
5:22 am
were so desperate to leave in the 1990. sometimes they traded entire apartments were every plane tickets to moscow. after years of exposure to extreme weather, there is no way people can live in these houses again, and it's too expensive to tear them down. to some of what nature has done to these buildings. the main people leave something behind the wilderness claims, it almost as if there is a message and gets his garden or you might be next. how do you feel about the city? does it feel like it's on its death row or the opposite bias in about? i don't know why it's developing last to face. the district has been built completely different. we can see all the new house is it? a new power plant was built on a new church has been blessed. so there is life in finicky it. yes,
5:23 am
of course. there is one particular project that breathed new life into the city and how did to move on from the devastation of the 19 ninety's bickerson. they put itself on the map as a side of a daunting experiment. it's the 1st city in the world that lives off a floating nuclear power plant. seriously, this huge thing you see right there is basically a c platform would to simmering style atomic reactors on it. no one has ever done this before. the power plant named academic la monassa, was assembled in st. petersburg and then moved to pivot by c, turned out to be way cheaper and easier than bringing thousands of concern workers . tons of materials to remote region like chicken russia plans on building a small fleet of these floating stations and use them to power remote facilities and maybe even offshore oil and gas platforms, but silky system. the only way to approach this up on everyone is concerned said in the motive larissa c store or is to nami. what's going to happen to atomic reactor
5:24 am
said to them with acronyms. is this a little provided? is that a stress tests were conducted because it was showed that even if a sion nominators rentals of our morning line only and we get carried ashore, was with our safety is still insured. and radiation emissions will be prevented or care. michelle. and the water around academic la monassa, we saw it seals, which seemed perfectly fine about swimming around the nuclear reactors. people here are hopeful that switching to atomic energy will also reduce to vax reliance on coal. that remains its main source of power. you see, the snow still turns black some times because of the emission coming out of the old cold power plant. we can see this plan right from here. pacific in search for one wreckage, we came across a local library that's apparently quite popular. mainly because of the extremely
5:25 am
slow internet in the city, which makes watching netflix or youtube, a torture and having a poor choice of other entertainment people actually read books and pivot. a 2 ladies working at the library gladly offered as hot beverages and for their hearts out on what they love and hate about the city. apparently, store prices are a heated topic and pivot in like that. his diary, sometimes when i'm in the shop, i look at some items and i think if i can afford them or not yet, although i really want them. but i rarely buy cheese ish because it costs a 101200 repulsion rarely by hand because was also real expensive. what did you eat for dinner yesterday? yeah, i don't have deer on a diet. next rated among russia's most expensive cities, which makes sense because 90 percent of goods are shipped from mainland russia. things like food, household items and clothes cost way more than say in moscow. just look at the price back here. cucumber. 11 us dollars per kilo tomato,
5:26 am
$11.00 per kilo, and there are just 2 tomatoes left to in the tire shop. now this one garlic 15 us dollars per kilo, and it's just for maybe 5 times more. i've been saying moscow where i live and that's one my favorite, it's green orleans $16.00 for one piece. busy insane each time here in the know we usually eat frozen food. if you look here, you can see that everything is in the freezer, very deaf version, everything is frozen. if we get fresh groceries, it's when they're brought over biplane, things like sausages or to buy plane. yes, that's crazy. why should keep in mind that because that is a small and close need committee of law, you were the 5000 people. and for instance, if a person is short in cash, he can borrow from a shop, see that and assuming copy book, the shopkeeper,
5:27 am
quickly put away it's a hand written list of those. you owe money to the store. if you've live next to someone for 20 years, and now they still live here with us, then you can say there's no escape from the submarine. they'll come and take what they need to day and another day they'll return the money for the real disaster for the event. because when a supply she doesn't come on time saying because of bad weather. therefore some local shops break the law by not getting rid of expired products just in case this box right here, expired in june. look. so it's 5 months ago, but i just bought it 50 percent discount and it's a common thing in the deck when we show the expired juice box to perfect deputy mayor, he scratch, he's had for about a minute. the local authorities are aware of the problem, but there is little they can do until the vet can be supplied regularly all year round. we have appropriate items and shops. we don't always have on
5:28 am
a shop owners negotiable seizure form. whatever. we have a supply period from june to november, fulfill most of the fresh groceries will come closer to the end of this period comes when it gets there possible. and this is how prices are decided because it all gets destroyed. no one wants to have financial losses. i live with the edge of the world is no picnic. if you want to survive in a place like this, you have to stick together a rule that everyone here seems to leave fine. we have a different mentality to people on the mainland. we are like a big family mexican nationality. people are actually friends with each other here . this dore gold and expensive here. yeah, i love my town. very much. honestly. i gave birth to to amazing boys, and i've met the men of my life. tech has given me a lot of what makes people stay in the south eastern lead. nobody knows and look at
5:29 am
if everyone wants to move to the mainland, but they come back cut off. so now that you've seen it come back as well, congratulations with the new revolutionary power plant which brings jobs and higher salaries. things begin to look out for the city, but it's not electricity per se, that makes things change. it's the people. and that's the true power of the deck in russia's arctic. ah ah no very cool piece. my god correspondent, konstantin orosco there making that long journey to pavel which is about a we checked this but a 1127 miles from alaska. you can check that out of the audio youtube channel for
5:30 am
the meantime though you started, a program returns at the top of the hour. ah . but, and i make no shipping, you know, borders, slide number t's and you fresh as a merge. we don't have a charity, we don't to look back seen the whole world leads to take action 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.
