6:03 pm
arrested. we received some messages from our brothers, despite the internet and other communications having been cut. we learned about these clashes from these messages, but of course there is conflicting information. all communications are down. the disagreements between the military and civil officials is very important because the glorious december revolution dethroned the old regime. this regime drove the country into its current state, forcing a huge number of sudanese people to flee the country. never have there been so many refugees. as during the 30 years of military rule, the december revolution dethroned the old regime and helped create the new government. we were counting on the new governments to create a civil state that the un secretary general has condemned the crew and called for dialogue. the situation in the country will be discussed by the security council earlier. art is more, i guess there was in the shaded with my colleague, jewelry, sushi, to talk about what's happening in saddam well general abdel father,

6:05 pm
a safe place. but it views this or the, the dissolution of the sovereign council, as a coup, as a cool by the military. and this is, is all on the back of the revolution, of course, in 2019, when omar bashir, after 30 years, as head of country as the head of state a dictator, they called him after he was deposed of by, by popular, put us on, on economic grounds most where you talk about protests, for example, i me took it, talk about the, at the broader picture of this part of the world. political unrest in the country is really nothing new. i mean, we're talking these, these routes go way back to unfair. so don, for many years had been under very tough economic sanctions, international sanctions, eventually things got much worse, and there were huge brutus in 2018, 2019. they eventually forced to add a power o mart budget, but those problems have become worse. that is, that is the problem. now the, the civilian part, civilian part, military authorities, came to pave the way for
6:06 pm
a democracy for elections in 2023. and they were desperate for money. so they appealed to the i, m f, the world bank and such money never comes you know, freely comes with strings attached and one of the conditions was that they introduce all sorts of economic reforms and they removed subsidies, for example, for petrol, for, for, for power. for food, they raise taxes, and so that is one of the poorest countries in the world. and you had people who, who marched and protested to depose of buy shit for a brighter, more prosperous, economic future. and eventually they ended up with a courtesy that collapsed and her power fuel food price hikes across the board to things have become much more desperate than we saw of these weeks. a build up impetus. we had both those who were for the transitional council for democracy say yes, things will get worse, but eventually they'll get better. and now we have those who are, who are desperate, who say that, you know, we, we don't care,
6:07 pm
we want the military to come in, get rid of this incompetent government. we want to, to eat with her mind if it's a military dictatorship. so long as we have food, so the, so long as things are stable and affordable at nevertheless, now we know that there are put us on going in in the capital that protesters are burning ties protesting against this military coup as they call it. and there have been reports of violence that the number of people have also deal injured. in the meantime, the russian foreign ministry is urged to sit on his people get out of his side, the feature of the country for themselves. or we got reaction to the unraveling crisis for my senior research at the institute for security studies. as one of the journalists in south saddam the gum mental saw sedan as ah, bring all day defense of did could fight isn't so done at through. we decide what piece agreement and you look this a human was a bottle with 10, so done back to normal and also to democracy. but that is not working. that meant
6:08 pm
at the moment we could do a difference of opinion and what men sedan and currently that there is a political interest from the friends political hotties. there's additional em intense. and actually what with what was the next solution we've done on the tamar, i now, but according when you look at the submission, actually this edition with 10 him to wall because that different group thou pro mill face and our civilian and is people, is your time if there is no into benson's or valid as are the prime minister in the prime is resign, or from day a mentioned was a young man that it did numerous that as well for testers and also her class and the cried listen, go into the country. why i expect that people will get to the streets, and those numbers will continue to increase until i am the military. actually
6:09 pm
listen to all heed to their demands of my doris, t of sudan, east people. additionally, there's going to be a lot of pressure coming from that region coming from the african union and abington national parts list. remember that one of the difficulties that sudan has faced soon by his exit, has been the fact that they have not been able to solve their very economy questions. that way they're very basis for the over to of, out of my share. and we do know that the role of international partners has been very key in trying to do that. so the way forward is going to be tough. and there's going to be a lot of contestation between the civilian compliment civilians in the country. when the military leaders and we hope that all i will be able to proceed on the side of caution and restraint so that the ability of sudan will be paramount despite being banned by social media on anti joe biden song called let's go.
6:10 pm

6:11 pm
then delete things that came prior to that they actually are playing with our free speech. nobody is messing with them, they're messing the bus. the title of bryson grace. haiti is also the now infamous internet catch phrase. it went viral after nbc reporter was interviewing nascar racing dr. a. brandon brown and said he heard the crowd. shant, let's go. brandon. apparently realized what people will actually shouting, oh ah, ah, well, the song comes as ro, biden's approval rating has noticeably dipped according to a new survey. currently sits below 45 percent. that's down 11 points since is integration in january, meaning his popularity is declined faster than all this breeder says, since the 2nd world war wasn't grey again, thinks the president is finding the job tough going until a mean a people now a lottery will say, let's go branding for me,
6:12 pm
that's perfect. somebody doesn't curse back or so my the same for president biting people called from a dealership. there's nothing more similar to what they say to step in what jo buyers currently doing. you know what a lot of countries are going to try to segregate that's needed and back to business like jim crow, 2 point oh, i mean, while the world medical, what still continues to sound? the alarm about the ongoing code pandemic insisting it can only be stopped one way that bundle me will. and when the world chooses to end it, it is in our hands. we have all the tools we need effective public health tools and effective medical tombs increasingly empty fell with getting shoppers in the us nervously eyeing the calendar room at the fast approaching holiday season. it's been caused by major disruption to the national supply chain. over the past fortnight,
6:13 pm
dozens of ships at u. s. port, so i live in the water still waiting to be unloaded. pandemic has of course wrecked havoc to the global supply chain. shortage of fort operators and truck drivers in the united states has led to traffic jams at docs on empty shops, shelves. the government claims the ports had been overwhelmed with surgeon de bond on a booming economy. public law is not convinced has led to get more gloomy reading for team biden. over half of those quiz, sidney nationwide survey, believe the administration is dealing badly with economic matters. we've gone from extremely prosperous, too, locked down and economically miserable in the space of a year from 2019 to 2020 the lockdown caused the supply chain to grind to a halt because businesses were not ordering products and supplies anymore because they weren't able to move them and sell them, and they weren't sure when they would be, the government does not expect to perform well in the next couple of elections if
6:14 pm
the truth about the supply chain. and the current state of the american economy becomes widely known that we're told by the administration, this problem will be over by the end of 2022. i'm seeing it in the foreseeable future. this is going to take years, if not decades a we will have to return to a state of reasonable prosperity, prosperity before the supply chain even fills itself in to return to what we considered normal filter. come on the 5 ram i. facebook. whistleblower testifies that you can lawmakers in may to push for increased online security. bring up questions over the future of use of privacy. more less out of his voice author bring them. ah
6:15 pm
ah ah mm. this picture tells a 1000 words and 1000 episodes a kaiser where are continue. this is rosetta stone of mean and kaiser important understanding this me one, stacy wearing a crime. i don't know if you've seen it close enough or not, but that stacy wearing a crown in front of a burning building. this is the key. me of all means this is constructing all you
6:16 pm
need to know about our modern life in this me. ah, oh, come back. vaccine donations by western countries of failing to match initial pleasures according to the people's vaccine alliance. who's latest report concludes pharmaceutical companies and rich states are contributing to job and equality around the world. we spoke to walk thumbs and marriott, who's also the policy for the people's vaccine alliance. what we've seen is developing countries receiving an endless types of to be frank, inadequate gestures of support followed by these broken promises. and it should be a cause of international shame. i think the biggest and the data that we really show is what we've known all along developing countries simply cannot and should not have to rely on the goodwill of rich countries,
6:17 pm
all pharmaceutical companies. they're not delivering what we need or the right from the recipes of these back seems to be shed, so that we can scale up manufacturing and developing sustainable. both of the documents named a dose of reality, underlines with nearly 2000000000 code vaccine shots were initially promised by wealthy nations. only 14 percent of those have been delivered to the countries most in need. just one in 50 people in those low income nations. awfully vaccinated as things stand. the people's vaccine alliance is crystal clear on who shoulders the lion's share of the play. and for those figures life that's namely high income state. the u came for one. promise that an 800000000 doses, to kovak se, worldwide initiative aimed at the fair access to cobra jobs. so far i live with less than 10 percent off. that amount, kind of is $14000000.00 promise to seen only 8 percent of that. behind that, over of thumbs on marriott, once again,
6:18 pm
believe the pharmaceutical joints have monetize the pundum. patients whenever designs full pandemic for public health emergencies, they should not in any situation get in the way of saving lives. and that is exactly what is happening now. but i think we also really have to remember that billions of dollars and your rise and i'm pounds that have been put into the development of these vaccines. it wasn't the investment of pharmaceutical corporations, all of that. shareholders that made these vaccines possible. look, the astrazeneca looked at mcdonough, almost a 100 percent puppet at the finance. is it tax pans, money that paid for the rapid development at these vaccines based on decade of research that was also public. the finance didn't about peyton's providing incentives. this is about peyton's protecting that monopolies and the grotesque profits of pharmacy to corporations. they have already made billions out of this
6:19 pm
pandemic. it's time to share the recipes, the rights to produce them, so that we can get this virus under control face. but what's the blow of france is how gonna survey testify to u. k. m p. so working on legislation to crocodile harmful online content. this comes off to her appearance in the u. s. senate where she keith, facebook, of spreading misinformation. heights and violence comes back and says only tiny sliver of con, our platforms hate are only tiny slippers violence, one, they can't detect it very well. so i don't know if i trust those numbers, but to it gets hyper, concentrated in, you know, 5 percent population. and you only need 3 percent of the population on st. tab revolution. and that's dangerous. the inner workings all facebook have now been further expose. as whistleblower francis hogan has been testifying in front of m. p . 's on the social media giants failure to protect the public from this really harmful content. now it's been a pretty long testimony indeed,
6:20 pm
and it's been very explosive to, with all sorts of allegations regarding safety and center censorship. plus of course, algorithms in their power to really distort people's news feeds on their social media. and also the content flow, of course, as well. now, all of what she says has a pattern of negligence. now, one of the stand out quotes from the testimony today is that the platform is undoubtedly making hate was. so of course, she was speaking to the parliamentary committee here in westminster, who is scrutinizing at the proposals for the online safety bill. it's a landmark piece of legislation that could really set the tone for social media regulation across the world. now france is how can a former employee of facebook says now is the time to act and facebook's encryption, which are essentially ambitions to make the site less transparent, will actually make it easier for bad actors to strike. now that could be on one end
6:21 pm
of the scale and espionage operations by hostile states. but then also want to more pass no level. it could be hate crime. and those people sharing a legal content. now that is an opinion that really is quite hand in hand with the government, which is looking to ban anonymous profiles. would you consider that legislation to move right to anonymity social media? i want to look at everything and there is what taken place already. now clearly the online space, we see far too much cruelty on mine. and i think all of us have responsibility and duty to work together. and i do think working together is part of the solution here . sadly, at a time when we need to be taking more action, facebook up to see an end to end encryption plans that place the good work and progress achieve so far in jeopardy is worth looking through. some of the aspects of this bill, especially it's in it's draft proposal form. so essentially all companies need to protect people from a harmful content such as a hate crime. there's also though,
6:22 pm
of course, an emphasis on protecting children from inappropriate content and sexual exploitation and abuse. so we're talking about the companies you'd expect, like facebook, twitter, tick, tock, youtube are all of which will need to tackle this content that's lawful, but still are harmful to the public. of course, that's a really tricky area to cover. it basically applies to abuse and misinformation think right now in particular, all of the different dates are and content on coven vaccines, or even the pandemic as a whole. so to try and get through and navigate this blurry line, the bill will also now be potentially bonding the anonymous accounts in the hope that people will no longer want to be hiding behind the computer screens. no hiding behind a fake account either. however, some key players in the civil liberties or platforms are basically saying this is a really slippery slope for government surveillance. and of course
6:23 pm
a pass or lack of privacy. this is a terrible position to take encryption benefits users and m whistleblowers world wide. it's essential to privacy and security. so hogan who argued directly against anti monopoly action against facebook is now parlaying her new phone celebrity, to defeat its plans for and to when encryption more and more it looks, she's in this for more government surveillance and censorship. this illogical position supports you key and u. s. government salon stunned and demonization of encryption in the interests of must have valence today. yet again, francis hogan is really shining a light. in fact, putting all the flat lights on a real and need to keep people safe. but in testimonies like this one, it really does expose how difficult it is to get that balance right, particularly online at to protect people, but also to protect privacy too. and we discussed the issue with brenda o'neill,
6:24 pm
chief political advisor at spiked. he disagrees with francis hargrove's arguments and thinks that the new proposals should be reconsidered. i disagree with a lot of what frances hagan said. i think she's pushing a problematic argument. this idea that social media platforms are very dangerous. they need to be firmly controlled, that people are at risk. and one of the most problematic arguments i think, is the idea that we should ban online anonymity. so people would not be allowed to be anonymous on line. i have a real issue with because lots of people need to be anonymous. they need to be anonymous because they could lose their jobs with. they expressed their opinion because we know that it's become much more difficult to express controversial views about transgender ism, for example, or about many other issues. and people prefer to do that behind an anonymous account. so i think we're going down a dangerous road and i think if we don't pull back and have
6:25 pm
a think about what we're doing, we will end up regretting it. meanwhile, we leaks editor in chief engineering a song just fiance held the press conference i had of this wednesday's hearing on a song just extradition of the coming hearing. the rule court of justice will decide whether to extra songs where the jail journalist, my face up to 175 years behind bars. the case has taken on even more significant since an article alleging the ca plotted to kidding up or assassinated student assault. back in 2017. when was the press conference, they expressed fears i saw you safety stressing the possible extradition is unacceptable. oh read how can joins feel safe. how can we feel safe? this? it criminal law is behavior that has to be a signal from somewhere that this is completely intolerable and unacceptable. in my mind, it is unthinkable that the high court will come to any other decision,
6:26 pm
but to uphold the magistrate court decision. not to after that julie ourselves. it would be such a stain on the system in this country that i certainly hope there will be enough pressure and realisation how devastating it would be. julian was accused of receiving, possessing, and publishing information to the public. that's not espionage. i. i ask you, please, to stop suggesting that julian accused of espionage because it's false. he's accused of journalism. i was shooting a saw and has been prosecuted and verified for his whistle blowing. facebook st. francis, how gonna get the brief lawmakers on her revelations, jonathan broadcast the new clock, explained to us why the 2 are treated so very differently. you miss hawkins,
6:27 pm
who is hated cheese, naughty being treated as a hero, but you have to contrast that with another whistleblower. even more famous whistleblower. the reason for this contrast treatment is of course forward is telling western elite the global east west what they want to what they want to hear . she is basically making the case for. busy government control over social media, doing a challenge on the other hand, is telling people what the global question leads to not walking, which are blowing, revealing house all war crimes carried out in the circle war and tara, in the iraq, or cetera. so that's one which will blow, he's still 80. and the other one is putting high security jail up next thought he'll come in for examines unanswered questions on the safety of the vapor thing in
6:28 pm
6:29 pm
theirs sinks. we dare to ask the more nato tried to explain itself, the more obvious is called more relic needs to be retired and for good. also, jo, by be told us he want it to be the great unifier, unlike the evil orange man. indeed. now there is growing beauty in the dislike of by a dying. i cried. i just had slept the whole time. i was
6:30 pm
there. no one really thought anything different. he just all thought i just, i feel good. on the way for the surgery, his lungs failed. 32nd ups when they killed him, they had gotten stuck with so many needles by day. there's a few points that were really the turning points page to. so if you reach out here were searching new medical problems in the united states knowing the doctor's holy crap, he's gonna die. oh no, he's the better. it was. i wouldn't want my worst enemy to go through that.
