ah ah, is our top headlines here when r t, the public mood swings to the right in france, just ahead of presidential elections and there's no shortage of candidates to meet the populace to agenda america, leading and medical research agency admits to funding controversial research into back corona viruses in china's will hand something previously repeatedly denied under oath by the white house is top infectious disease expert. and the u. k. prime minister was accused of selling out working people for failing to band practice, so fire and re hire. and that allows employers to give workers less favorable terms and conditions. ah,

there's a mid afternoon on saturday here in moscow. this is our t international welcome to your saturday stores. well, a push to the right seems to be key to success in french presidential elections. these days as some major candidates and even those who haven't yet officially announced that candidacy are all talking from way right of center, such as a l e is a more a talk show host, a new dawning of the french right wing. he's even tempting marine la pens, voters away and becoming a strong rival of a manual micron. charlotte dupon ski fall this report from paris. the play is may know to full yet be declared, but with less than 6 months before from the seas presidential election. the game is being played in right wing territory with participants trying to score on topics such as immigration, identity and security. emanuel mac, korn has slashed the number of these it deliveries to countries such as to new zia,

algeria and morocco. marina pan proposed is a referendum on immigration and makes it more, says france must stop both illegal and legal immigration when the legal and legal immigration. that's exactly what i'm saying today. today, a lot of french people are just sick and tired really, that there is no politician in our these pastors has tackled this. sure. immigration, nobody is doing anything. and you kind of feel that in trask that the situation is that it's very laxed and that nobody is doing a thing and is treating problems. and these problems are not being tackled by the government. grants has no policy. real policy concerning immigration, these past decides say these past 20 years, and this is starting to become a huge problem in france. ah, vania sticks to that messenger on immigration saying it's weakening,

frances sense of identity. my colon has set up a think tank to combat wookey st. id, ology that he believes is infecting the country. meanwhile, the more wants to buy new french names. valerie p. kasey says french laws must have precedence over european jurisdiction. must be watching with interest as poland bottles brussels on the same issue with my own. some countries have a stronger appetite for integration. others not only lindsay this issue in the opposite way. in some countries, constitutions say you, laura, supreme are the say the opposite. so that's constitutional pluralism. this pluralism has to be respected. if the kids about a strong economic and political role and aspiration in the world, there are a lot of sort of rarities between the re wing their movements, which are getting a popularity here in france. and what trump did in. ready the us,

i think that trump fingerprinted also to progress the identity problems that the americans were facing. and these issues are coming in france. parties on the right . entranced, want to go borders. they want to check, was coming into the country to run a privilege. the french workers are immigrant or foreign workers, so yes, of course this is very close. busy to what donald trump, i was promoting in the red during his campaign and what he tried to do once he was elected, ah, false is still worried about potential terror attacks. pretty much all the candidates know security is a key issue for vote is or reading to be only defensive. they're not met corns parts. he's introduced controversial bills. one issue such as global security and in defense of the french republic lapel has styled her party as one of justice and buddha is albia. but tony says he's priorities include the protection of the french, the end of impunity,

all the while supporting the police. is it more has said that security is the very 1st of freedoms. there's an ongoing problem with insecurity code, you know, crime of various kinds of petty crime and more serious crime in the what are called label. and you're the suburbs, particularly of paris and the other big cities. then of course, that's the ongoing issue of terrorism, which has hit france. probably, i think more than any other european country. all of this claim out is the potential candidate. so see, move, seeking both on the same pool. so why have frances would be captain shifted to the rights in 2017. the socialist party collapsed in france. and macklin, who of course came from a full swallow loans team. he basically took over the socialists, the old socialist electorate. but of course he is not himself particularly

socialists. so he has, he has occupied that particular space. and the socialist party has not found a candidate yet. who has the ability to challenge him on the left. as it only poll suggests the countries overwhelmingly disappointed with macro and all of the others who are offering to take charge. but in a pinch, most people tend to vote with what they know. meaning that the pockets still at least but now in macro shrink. charlotte even ski artsy paris. so america's leading and medical research agency has admitted her funding risky studies into bats and come marrow corona virus research in china's wu and province . this is despite earlier denials from america's top infectious disease expert folk, anthony foundry. the u. s. money had gone into the so called gain of function came

error such a correspondent daniel armstrong, looks at the implications here. a game of fat and mouse in the u. s. over corona, virus research findings and public funds, quite literally a top national institutes of health official has admitted us taxpayer money finance testing mice in china with back corona, virus genetically altered to make it more transmissible to humans. now the danger, as such, research has always been that the virus could escape the lab and spark a public health disaster. limited experiment described in the final progress report was testing if spike proteins from naturally occurring. but corona viruses circulating in china were capable of binding to the human ac 2 receptor in a mouse model. laboratory mice infected with a s h c 014, w i v one bat corona virus became sicker than those infected with the w i. v one bat corona virus. eco hell fell to report this find in rice away as was required by

the terms of the grant. and yet for months the biden administration's big cheese on the disease. doctor anthony found, she denied any claims that the u. s. funded such projects, it comes as vindication for republican senator ran paul, who's quest for transparency on the investigation, was beginning to look like a rat race? no one saying the are it is ours. didn't millennials? virus cause the pandemic. what were alleging is the gain of function research was going on in that lab, and an i h funded it that is not away from it. it meets your definition and you are up to skating the truth. anybody have lying here, senator? it is you. some experts say found she knowingly misled the country, the national institutes of health, se acknowledgements of the facts is new, but the facts themselves and not new. the national institutes of health was informed about the gain of function research in whoo, han, in 2018 and again in 2020 collins and felt she lied to congress light to the press

and light to the public. now although the bat is out of the bag according to tobacco, let's say it seems that the u. s. has tried to cover up anything indicating any links to such research in we won the u. s. based ico health alliance. president pizza, dash jack was even chosen as part of a w h o team of experts to investigate the origins of cove it. but it seems that much of us top level f, it's in the pandemic, not least. their insistence on blaming and investigating china have only exposed u. s. official cover ups and lies with a disturbing question being why our cover ups and lies needed these most recent revelations show that the national institute of health director collins either outright wide or. busy have absolutely no idea what's going on with their agencies either way they have no business writing these organizations. and frankly, i think there needs to be a forward open investigation and whether or not they did know directly no. and if

so, they should be held to the, to the fullest extent of punishment, or that if history is a judge of how it's going to go, we're going to see little to no accountability, but i hope i'm wrong. meanwhile, it's a merge that antony found. she has been the top paid federal employee for years in 2004. he was granted a permanent pay adjustment for bio defense research in our earns mold. and the u. s . president spike cohen says the regulations about gain of function come error. so it really comes no surprise. i think it is the height of 9 a to believe that what we know the u. s. government you have done from the 939-4900 . 596-070-8990. 202010 as suddenly magically stopped in the 2020 that you know, a decade a century plus subterfuge in clean destin operations. and, you know,

and cover ups and scandals in life suddenly ended. even though no one ever was held accountable for the old lives and played does not for asians and so forth. so i hate to say that, you know, i don't think this is a one off this car for the course for largest or carrying government selling out working people. that's the accusation laid on britain's prime minister, amid a rise and so called fire and re hire practice is the notorious scheme of dropping . then re employing workers on worst terms has intensified during covert, according to the unions and the opposition has harshly criticized the practice. this week, government has allowed bad bosses to force brutal changes to contracts and take thousands in wages from families. there is agreement across the political spectrum that fire and re hire is unfair, unjust and unacceptable. but once again, we have only warm wars and bluster from bars. johnson who's ordering his m p 's to vote down the bill selling out work and people in the process is coercive. it's

bullying it. and i can tell you from experience it's, it's very, it's a, it's a very unpleasant situation, almost feels like being in an abusive relationship. because the workplace is the relationship teachers. you know, it is built on trust and confidence. and what fire rehired does is it breaches that trust and confidence and that's why i shall i have no other option. but to allow myself, in my experience to be sat on the fiery high cuz i could not continue in that relationship anymore. am because because of its abuse of nature, raise it when i read or figures, or show nearly a quarter of all you. k workers say they're working terms such as pay or hours have been downgraded during the pandemic. many say they faced the fire and re hire practice themselves having to reapply for their old jobs on worse terms and conditions, otherwise,

face the sac or bar if johnson himself has called to practice unacceptable. however, fire and re hire remains legal, provided that due process of followed like formerly consulting workers and observing set notice periods. but kevin burn the former u. k. gas industry worker you just heard from before. i believe the laws of protecting the wrong people. so force that because you know, i'm a law abiding citizen, i like most people and you know, i'm led to believe that the laws are there to protect it. citizens for i think in with this experience of realize the laws that actually bear to protect corporations on them and the money class. what makes the west me is. yeah, it is the final insult there because when i embark on my disputes, my and sanction and the intention of my colleagues and comrades was so when are the speech and to win, so convincingly bass, no company would,

would use fire and re hire. but fortunately, that didn't happen it, oh, it's a paraphrase, harper. late m m is bought to kill a mockingbird. the definition of courage is when you know you less from the beginning, what you begin anyway. and that's what we did. and because we were up against the web where the corporation. busy such as british gas, i plenty more thought to come on the program as we enter the 2nd block in just a moment. apparently going green in germany has ignited more than public debate. as electric, the buses repeatedly burst into flames. that story involved with back in about oh, her save, bring additional money today, household and that the additional money goes to children, education and welfare off the household. and then thirdly,

it goes to savings. and if a country as a savings, it can improve itself and produce growth. i think to those say that, but they must us for this moment to be included in the household so that the household income will be higher. and the countries in count that will be higher, which is g d p. mm hm. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offensive, very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very difficult time. time to sit down and talk oh,

it is good to have you with us today. one of germany's largest public transport companies has pulled 8 electric buses out of service in munich. it comes as a precautionary measure after a charging station was destroyed by fire late last month. the company blames a technical defect with a fire, which appears to be a widespread issue with electric vehicles in the country. peter oliver investigates the story. as berlin embraces electric transportation, these battery powered buses have been traveling along the route $200.00 for just over a year now. taking passengers to such sites as the german capitals do. however, 3 fires across the country, a depos with electric buses. the most recent and september eng. stuttgart has raised questions about safety. not just of bosses, but all electric vehicles. yeah. absolute. yes. the risk of these fires included in other locations, such as the bicycle basements, or large apartment blocks,

is completely unaddressed. also, insurance companies are not yet tackling the issue today. it's not regulated, in my opinion, it's not possible to regulate fires in general. so it is likely that dep post or to for electric bosses and the deepest for other buses will be separated and that fire barriers will be built in between the individual buses to reduce the risk that europe is experiencing a boom in sales of electric vehicles with manufacturers of them doing a roaring trade between april and june of this year, one in every 12 cars sold was 100 percent electric. when you put hybrid into the mix, you're looking at a 3rd of all sales across europe. it's been a meteoric rise as well back in 2018, less than 200000 electric vehicles were sold here in year of this year though, we're expecting that figure to be well over $1000000.00. in fact,

when you look at these numbers globally, over the next 4 years, we're expecting to see 10000000 electric vehicles sold. with that figure soaring to 30000000 by 2032 years ago we as an electricity consumer protection organization decided to also address the issue of electron mobility. electricity consumption will increase by 25 percent as a result, although is not the real problem, why shouldn't the main problem is that you need very high power to charge the batteries within a reasonable time. in the long run, this will lead to charging in private households. the development of an infrastructure to charge a larger number of cars is completely undeveloped. people have been too naive about this. an 8th is an incredible on to statement. despite both concerns, electric vehicles, including buses like these do seem like they are going to be the future. in fact,

manufacturers are so confident that they're saying that if competitors don't stop producing electric models, well, they're not going to be competitors for very long. like moving from the horse to the car, it's that seismic it changes everything. and to such an extent that any players that don't pivot fast enough that don't invest unlikely to survive in the future. here in germany, a poll earlier this year showed that almost 60 percent of the population was skeptical when it came to these electric bosses. people saying that they were unsure of the environmental compatibility when it comes to electric mobility. added to that concerns over a potential safety worries. and not everybody is willing to hop on one of these bosses just now. peter oliver aussie pearl and supporters of

julian assange of held a people's tribunal in london on alleged u. s. war crimes revealed by the wikileaks founder, which reportedly led to a c, i a plot to kill him, a trailer. the tribunal was intended to strengthen public backing of the will. so blower head of his u. s. extradition hearing. and we spoke to some of those members in attendance. and the point i was making it in a democratic society, security services on the military and special forces have to be accountable. my whole point is that junior is in a different country in a different place. we have a hero because even exposing what the us and britain in particular were doing, he's seen isabel, came to me is somebody that when the history books are written, it was 21st century julian sanchez, night movie write up somebody that told the truth. there is an irony in the fact that shooting so face to order and the appeal against

against the verdict to to say that he should have been taught that the rule that you've been used to expedite is that was developed in the following day. iraq for the following is a cornerstone of the legislation and i think it does it already in the fact that those that are being used now to to the us and when it comes to the issue of june, the sound is very significant. the nation in june and june, the softness, actions around the world, spoken up so clearly about the situation that julia found is faced because it is intended in my view, to intimidate june elsewhere and in the future from exposing more crimes from exposing human rights abuses and of course, that's an incredibly important part of the role of jan is which is to hold the

capital to accounts, which is to expose in just a non important parts of the critic science. they must be defended. and while the belmont tribunal named after the jail where science is being held, had no legal bearing it aimed to elicit public attention. following in the footsteps of a similar event conducted half a century ago, condemning us afternoons in vietnam. next week i saw your face as a hearing into as possible extradition to america on espionage charges you could get into jail for a 175 years. wikileaks editor in chief christian ramson told us this august cases, clearly a politically motivated one. recent revelation shows, sir, without any doubts or the political element of the case, because you feel sounds well, we have all the human rights and civil liberties organization of any married to team up together. i have to respect to this to be

a just outcome. just as for julian, just as for journalism, because that's what stake here. we also spoke to a documentary filmmaker and investigative journalist, john pilcher, who believes the whole case against assigned as a demonstration of power. this is a ca operation, any one who knows the united states. well, notice the power overseer, the extra judicial power of the cia, the extra governmental power of the c i. that's what this is. this is, this is what you probably say. 20081 of wiki lakes, 1st major lakes. in march, the 18th, 2008. it's from b u. s. army counter intelligence assessment branch, department of defense. you read through this document. it lays out everything that

happened. i from 2010, but we will get a song by smearing him. i had to spread, observing him by destroying trust and with the rates ah, and good from here. wrong investigative journalism. all this time are not the words . serious investigative journalism is our number. well this is a show trial i. i've actually sat in on shorter char and this is a short trial quite as much headlines for you in brief, this weekend, violet clashes and pakistan between security forces and islamist protesters of lead to the deaths of 2 policemen, uninjured several others. thousands gathered in the eastern city of la, full, demanding the release of the leader of their outlawed party. also, around 2000 polish coal miners have travelled across europe to luxembourg, to riley, at the european court of justice over the proposed closure of

a major mine. the demonstrators who carried banners and flags were met with a heavy police presence. the tutor of mine is part of an unsolved dispute between poland to the czech republic, which says it drains water reserves from nearby villages. poland is being fined $500000.00 euro for each day. it stays open, but is at the moment. refusing to pay and worshippers are finally returned to friday prayers and terran, after an almost 2 year break, caused by covert organizers in the iranian capital. say old health protocols are being followed. iran remains one of the was coveted countries with over 120000 deck and finally now in the program, there's a new god on patrol outside a russian spaceport or this power packet, unmanned combat robot as well bristling with the latest gadget tree that let it work with minimal human input and is apparently flexible enough to be used almost

anywhere. ah. today controlling a robot is as easy as ordering a taxi. you need to create a routes, confirm it, and create tasks which the robot will complete on the route. with today the robot work is to complete technical structures. this will cease work without enough racer to complete just that through voice mode and tablet or anything else with minimum participation from man

with technologies can be adjusted to the level of border security to deliver goose products or pipelines to how to reach regions or to patrol pipelines, power lines, et cetera, with either us in used cars for this hour here. we're to archie international. thanks for joining us here on the saturday afternoon, nearly half past 3 here at moscow were back soon with more hope you cannot join us at the top of the fuse.

hello. hello. driven by dream shaped banks centers are those with dares sinks. we dare to ask in a list of supplies but also within the industry. wiley, a little fish with

. 6 just needed. yeah. it was a just to say the game and then you would get these images, but it goes up as good as a supposedly got my did on. i would get to spend music is images. but it's like a mom, but that's what your host was out of the to get the vote if i get all of your rooms plan a dumb way up with the to the shelters will push up with

ah, oh, i wonder why no she one and i eat i will buying mine. oh oh yeah, i can measure it. yeah. oh. i think the people who are adopted are afraid of losing people were very scared of rejection. not now was there a no secrets with adoption, but when the worst secrets and lies there was no family relationship who's a wall between us, the strange coldness.
