2:03 pm
would you like to cancel the ambulance on everything but the ambulance that day and at that point we took them at their value and said, yeah, okay, we'll cancel that and then we'll give him his dinner and get him into bed, etc. because over the night i stay the night make sure that you know the night these condition wesson's and in the morning i'd call for another ambulance report say that 91 percent of hospital beds were occupied in england as of last friday. that's just the number of people waiting for hospital treatment that hit a wreck or high. according to the h. s. almost 6000000 people are on waiting lists and this coming winter will only intensify the pressure of the same time. the bridge is health secretaries admitted that there aren't enough staff to operate the countries emergency telephone lines. the $999.11 you heard about, the secretary added that a detailed plan of action is being put together and would likely be unveiled soon. but luke winchester is not convinced every step of the way that mismanaged the
2:04 pm
crisis aside from the vaccine rollout. i re personnel, any faith in the current government, and the people on the ground were working really hard, like the paramedics, like the people answering the cause. they're not necessarily always getting given the clearest information. you know, i fully believe that when the person from 111 told us to talk to 999, i'm under the bus or 999 toes taught to 111. i'm sure that i believe that's what. yeah, that's what i'm told to do, is i real simple answer as to where i think they're gonna fix it with their actions so far appear to be pretty inept. on tuesday, the u. k. registered to the highest number of daily coven deaths since march, and the government extended its emergency powers related to the corona virus for another 6 months demonstrate as including anti vaccines took to the streets to protest this and other pandemic measures.
2:05 pm
oh, heavily. they may, putin has ordered a paid week off work for russians. nathan nationwide from october, the 30th to november, the 7th. it's another attempt to stop the spread of the corona virus multi corresponded. daniel armstrong has the latest is of course, as for a non working period of around about 9 days, just a little over a week from october 30th to november, the 7th. now, of course, that could be extended if those measures do nothing to combat those rising cold cases in russia course recently, in russia, there has been a re reports of over $34000.00 daily covey cases that has been a national high. the highest has been since the virus emerged, the on saturday figures were released of over a 1000, a desk daily. that was also a new record. now, president putin has today said there is a need to break the chain of to spread the virus and to never underestimate the seriousness of the situation. now let's just get
2:06 pm
a little bit more on what exactly president putin said. miss lennox was leaving him . unfortunately, we see what dangerous consequences the low level of vaccination in our country has led to. i will repeat once again, the vaccine really reduces the risk of illness as well as possible severe complications from that illness and even the risk of death valley. i emphasized the need to increase the pace of vaccination, and of course i once again urge all of us citizens to be actively vaccinate issues is about your protection about your safety, about your life after all, about the health of your family resources. so of course, as you just heard, there it is very much a case of personal responsibility to go out and get the vaccine. and the criminal has said time. and again the all russians do have the facilities needed to go out and get the job. now that low percentage of population that have been vaccinated, so far, the president putin was talking about is around about 33 percent of the nation.
2:07 pm
that's 47300000 russians who have had the jap, 9 day working period, their non working period rather now are a mini lockdown just to combat those are those covered cases. it could come in to effect earlier in regions that have a particularly high rate of co, it cases around about octo when he's, when she said a president, he's insane to the russian population. go out and get that vaccine and take it upon yourself to go and get inoculated. let's update that on the latest on all breaking news from france, where a massive police hunt is under way after a man was beheaded. the public's being warned that the suspect may be armed and dangerous across developments for us is our fee shall do ben ski in paris. hi there . what do we know so far about this grow the grizzly development? yes, this mccall been murder more details about this. have been coming out over the last few hours as that man has a huge man. hunt is on the way for a man that's been described by the police as being armed and dangerous. what we
2:08 pm
understand is that the man who was killed and apparently beheaded, and also disempowered, was discovered at a home down in the south of france in an area called berlin, which is in the rhone valley. he was discovered the body by 2 nurses off their family members had raised the alarm, saying that they were concerned about his whereabouts. the police believe that the suspect is a 37 year old man who is apparently the grandson of the individual who is apparently been beheaded on disempowered. and as i say, it's john dom say, here in france, that man hunt is on the way specifically. they're looking at a wooded area and they have warned anybody who might come into contact with the suspected killer to not cross parts with him, but to back away and essentially cool the authorities straight away. they have released an image of the suspect,
2:09 pm
this 37 year old man with dark short hair. the say that he's wearing shorts and a black t shirt. but of course, we all go into the night taylor in france or to make that search perhaps a little bit more difficult, just to give you a sense of how big this search is, almost a 100 individuals involved, including the police and as well, the national gendarmerie intervention group have been cooled down to participate that this is a group that normally deals with anti terror operations and hostage situations. so these guys who are pretty serious, they're all searches taking place with dogs. they're a helicopter is being used and all terrain motor cycles as well in a bid to detect this individual that they believe is behind this particularly gruesome murder. as i mentioned, it's been reported in france. add that the individual who's wanted in connection with that murder is the grandson of the person who's been killed. and also we're
2:10 pm
hearing that the scene was pretty grizzly when those 2 nurses arrived with blood everywhere. the local mer saying that he does believe that there's a psychiatric issue here. so this isn't really being treated as anything other than an incident within the family. but as, as at the moment, a 37 year old man is suspected of killing his grandfather at the heading and disemboweling him in this incredibly mccord murder. here in france, just the latest in the line of quite a few macabre murders that we've had in the last few months, including a beheading last week in the south of france. that was over 77 year old woman at 51 year old man is in custody over that and is having a psychiatric evaluation. and also just deb before that in july, a 13 year old child was discovered having being beheaded in his arm, chopped off an an apparent herb,
2:11 pm
cannibalistic satan istic. i'm motivated murder to some really ma cobb deaths in france in the last few months, including this latest one to day with this man hunt. that's now on the way. let's have the police not closing in. all right, for now in parish all a do boesky. thank you. next to german police have warned that the country's border with poland is at risk of collapse amid a massive influx of migrants crossing over into the e. g. u from neighboring belarus, or europe correspond. peter oliver has more of a story. the european union is placing mounting pressure on minsk over refugees looking to enter the e u via bella. ruth, that the german foreign minister has been among a group of, of senior german politicians that have pulled absolutely no punches whatsoever in their comments. hi, co must. the foreign minister has accused alexander lucas shanker,
2:12 pm
our rights of running an illegal migrant transport network, is innocent or we'll talk we in europe are being confronted with the fact that lucas suncoast using refugees as a tool to put pressure on european nations. look, a suncoast, nothing short of the head of a state run smuggling rate with arthur shift in louisville in and through belarus, state organized, or at least state supported smuggling activities are taking place. the regime and belarus has now considerably expanded the list of countries from where people can enter without a visa. that's a form of hybrid threats where migrants are being used as a political weapon horse they offer the interior minister of germany who you just heard. there's also said that he wants to coordinate with his polish counterpart in order to have joint border patrols along, not polish, or bellow russian border. that border basically between bellow, bruce and the european union. there has been a deal done between brussels and baghdad. though in this particular issue,
2:13 pm
that is to make sure that no planes will be flying refugees from iraq into bela ru city route, that quite a few people had taken. now this air bag on flights is going to be in place at least until the end of the year. but what we're talking about deals, and particularly when it comes to refugees minds go back to 2015 to the start of the migrant crisis, which saw over 1300000 people seek asylum inside the european union. a deal at that time was done with turkey. turkey of course, was the country that the vast majority of people who arrived inside the e. you travelled across at the time, billions were given towards or promised, at least, and certainly hundreds of millions given to turkey, trying to make sure that people either remained in turkey or certainly didn't make or try to make that crossing. there still a lot of reserve judgment when it comes to exactly how successful that deal was, and however, any sign of a deal being offered towards bella, bruce,
2:14 pm
and is non existent at the moment. in fact, the bell, russian president, alexander lucas shanker, says that he's doing everything he can possibly to fight illegal immigration, but says that all he gets in return from his european partners is political pressure and sanctions. you're stifling us information we, you are doing it methodically and collectively. you're trying to destroy our economy and expect us to spend hundreds of millions of dollars protecting your cheer, political interests, like before. you must be crazy to think we will support you if you want us to help . you have to take steps in that direction rather than try to stifle us. it's hopeless or the spite it not being what anybody in brussels wants or certainly not what they want to talk about publicly. at least it does seem that one of the only real ways to get to the crux of this problem may be for the e. you to work directly with bella. luce. okay, now let's bring in doctor steven garbage of the institute. so for european studies
2:15 pm
and pal grade, good to talk to your doctor. got it. and that seems to be a quite united front to cross the e u. when it comes to responding to migrant flows from barbosa didn't seem to be so much solidarity when italy in greece was struggling a few years back. why the discrepancy to thing? well, i also went hungry was struggling, let's remember. and then when the hungarians were building the fence with serbia to combat the flux of migrants, there was a united outcry from brussels. this is against the human rights and so on and so forth. but now i went to western neighbors and villers are doing the same. we don't hear, same outcry. i would say this has a lot to do with, with the hybrid warfare with hybrid warfare against russia and bills is being seen as a, let's say, influenced by russia are from the russell log ministration.
2:16 pm
and of course, from their western neighbors, the baltic states and poland. so i do think we have more concerned for geo politics here than ford human rights. but even when it wasn't an e u member, when turkey was struggling in 2016 and brussels and turkey of long had made with each other over a number of issues. but there was still that 3000000000 euro deal struck between the you and turkey to help out with the migrant issue that they were struggling with while these kind of suggestions even being brought forward. you think, you know, absolutely, i mean, but we have to go back to 2020 and to the protests in melrose and the role played by media foster neighbors or bellows and their involvement unrest that was happening in the country. so i do think
2:17 pm
that that bill receives is being treated for quite differently from turkey. and there is this sense, i will say arrogance when i, when brussels is talking to them in a sense that i would even compared to their postcolonial past. and. 1 we can see the clear difference in language and in deeds. not to mention that i don't think that barrels should expect any financial help coming from to brussels . ah, with this issue. but he's actually being given less than no help. the solution from brussels is to impose sanctions, isn't it? what do you think the end game going to be there aren't tougher measures likely to make matters worse by being confrontational? absolutely. if i, if the brussels continues out with the same tools, the same policies,
2:18 pm
i think that the information would only deepen. ok. and unfortunately, as far as in a seen the future from this point, this is exactly what is going to happen. i expect that there will be a greater influx of minus from the lease, and the response would probably be more sanctions. but i think that the billers should wait this one out and wait. what will happen? let's say, in a broader context. because the attention between nato and it's member states and nato even with washington, are more and more obvious. and the future of the organization has such is, is these under the question and the countries that are bordering bowers are already forming a block of their own. on the eastern members of l. d. u,
2:19 pm
i'm talking about the michigan 4 plus the, the baltic states. so i do expect the immediate future that the passions will rise. however, we will see what will be the future of nato and even on the european union and with this are changes that are inevitable influence the policies of brussels and, and will there be a strife even between official brussels in the future and the countries bordering bellows you mentioned russia little earlier, germany's interior ministers claim of the k to resolving the current crisis is with moscow. why do you think there's an effort to try and rope russia principal with? well, the european countries i'm dribbling so they see what is what is happening with the russian bell russian relations after the protest. i have mentioned the level of
2:20 pm
integration between the 2 countries in russia and billers has been on the rise. i should not mentioned that the builders phase, only something about 10 percent of the price of gas that you members are currently paying. and this sounds a lot also their defense is very much integrated. i'm coordinated and the beth is why i think that being the perception of the western european countries, moscow ease, the key for solving are questions that they the open question they have with the misc. yet they're actually many desperate issues on the banana, a few degrees of separation between each good to talk to you this evening. talk to steven, got it. the institute of your pension that he's in belgrade. thank you. thank you. you're with all t facebook face is a multi $1000000.00 bill because it was preferring foreign workers over americans.
2:21 pm
will tell you all about that after the break. ah . back kaiser's financial saliva. no, they say my little girl i wanted to do this is our central pac support. donna gonna call them right now and say, stop the madness o is your media. a reflection of reality in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? high selection for community. are you going the right way?
2:22 pm
or are you being led somewhere? which direction? what is true? walk this way. in the world corrupted, you need to descend, ah, join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. ah ah hello again. well, another thing that facebook won't like it's having to pay out $14000000.00 in a civil case. so, but discrimination. the u. s. social media giants accused of giving preference to hiring foreign workers over americans. facebook. he is not about the law and must comply with our nations federal civil rights laws, which prohibit discriminatory recruitment and hiring practices. the fac giant gave certain positions mainly to temporary visa holders. the prosecutors claimed that up
2:23 pm
to $2600.00 us work is lost out as a result, facebook with find almost $5000000.00 and is paying out more than $9000000.00 in compensation to victims. lawsuit against the tech giant was followed last year by the u. s. justice department. back then, the trump administration pushed the biggest tech companies to hire more americans for permanent positions, instead of temporary forum workers, legal unless jennifer de master explain to his wife facebook in particular, adopted that policy. facebook and some of these other companies will watch these immigrants. it's a way for facebook to save money, while also preventing maybe lawsuits for unfair or discriminatory work practices. which in and of itself is discriminatory against actual united states citizens that we're applying for work and unable to get a company like facebook, with a lot of money would be able, their, their high priced attorneys to be able to find a case that had merit less claims, but again,
2:24 pm
it's been brought by the department of justice itself. i think it's very surprising that people, many people who see facebook or some of the social media platforms as an arm of a political party. so it's kind of being this distinction drawn between this, what we consider politicize, or a bite and era department of justice. what should be friends with facebook actually bringing a discrimination claim against, you know, this, this partner. so this story might be used by either the federal government, by a new situation or by facebook to argue that the way we are different, you know, we, we, we, we can be held accountable. look, we're not above the law. when in reality they've been working hand in hand for a long time, facebook has been acting as an arts of most a political federal agencies in order to st. silence political opponents with the security situation in afghanistan, deteriorating taliban leaders are in moscow for talks focusing on the humanitarian
2:25 pm

2:26 pm
a 3rd of the population is on the verge of starvation. taliban has said that it is open to foreign aid for humanitarian aid, food medicines being delivered, so long as the conditions attached don't violate their sovereignty or religious principles. one, a peaceful afghanistan is in the interest of all parties involved. just as we want . positive relations with others, we also see positive relations from the outside. we are committed to the principles of islamic sharia law. any aid or assistance that has been given. if it's in line with ours law, mac principles, we don't have a problem with it and we're already, we're seeing some humanitarian aid. the session itself, where all the delegates met to place bod closed. those we were told, there were many things that they agreed on. such as the need to stop naco trafficking out of, of got us on the need to address the security situation that the, the attacks by isis arcada and other terrorist groups that will to also disagreements disagreements about the makeup of the afghan government. the taliban
2:27 pm
insisting that its government is inclusive other countries, such as russia saying that it isn't as inclusive as it needs to be that this government does is packed with taliban officials. hard lied. taliban officials were patched soon. at nancy, the predominant died about of this city. there is very little representation, but by ethnic minorities, all political dissidents, political opposition groups. and that is something that must change. but russia also says that the, the urgent priority now at is to make sure humana aaron aid is delivered to afghanistan by every one for you, which with movies do we are convinced that it's time to mobilize the efforts of the world community to provide cobble with effective financial, economic and she monetary and assistance in order to prevent a crisis and to curb migration flows. we expect responsible behavior towards afghan citizens over 1st and foremost from western countries. a 20 year presence brought
