a matter of, if it happens, it's a matter of went with the american nurses suspended from work as to refusing to take a covey shot on religious grounds. it comes to the pipe administration, says the day for mandatory jobs to be extended to workers in the private sector. i . unfortunately, they deemed that my religious beliefs were not sincere. it's kind of surreal, honestly, because i love my job and i have been a co been nurse for since the beginning germany proposed titan restrictions on the unvaccinated, his daily covey case is saw to an all time record pushed the health care system that to the limit the cold sentences, the french president's former body, got

a 3 years behind bars for violence used against protest. as an incident, the went viral, created quite a scandal for manual micro bluffs. thousands of green processed is led by glastonbury march. so we've got 26 host city glasgow denouncing the much trumpeted global climate summit as all talk no walk i with hello that very good evening. appreciate your company here on our see. we will start with breaking news. multiple bomb threats have been called in to yale university, that's according to offices who responded at the same. the several buildings on campus have been evacuated to they include the university theaters, jonathan edwards college, and the gail gallery. the police are carrying out

a search of the area. the public's been asked to avoid the campus will bring you more information. we should be pretty slow to come out. i have to say bringing it as it comes in elsewhere. the u. s. has registered $61000.00 koby cases in just 24 hours, making it the world's highest figure. and it comes despite the government's all out efforts to get people vaccinated, including through a federal mandate. the pressure is being met though with fish resistance on nursing . california, for example, has been suspended by a private hospital to she refused to take a cove, its shot intelligence and filmed herself being ushered from her workplace. i am being escorted out of kaiser permanente hospital for my religious beliefs because i don't want to get a job. they deemed that my religious beliefs were not sincere. and i

was upset about that because i had really sincere religious beliefs and convictions . and i wanted to get answers from the hospital as to some random h r person deciding that my livelihood was now going in jeopardy because they didn't believe that i really have sincere belief in my christian faith is kind of surreal, honestly, because i love my job and i has been a coven nurse for since the beginning. joe buttons, controversial, workplace. thanks. the mandate has now expanded to cover small businesses requiring all work is there to have a vaccine or at least one p c. r test per week. and penalties are steep for employees, they start at $14000.00 per violation. they could even rise to as much as a $100000.00. several states have already opposed the measured though, and filed a lawsuit against the by the administration mother call to cover everyone. there

are some exemptions, they include certain medical conditions, pregnancy, and religious beliefs. the last one of those is particularly challenging, is to believe must be deemed to be sincere enough to justify an exemption. and it means it's of 2 employees in america to decide whether that work is have a legitimate right to not get a job. the company we mentioned earlier that the hospital has suspended more than 2000 employees for refusing vaccination. it says they will be able to return to work as soon as i get a shot that victoria jensen says that she's done everything necessary to keep staff and patient safe. but still her religious view, she says would disregard it. i made a choice for myself and i think everyone is should have the freedom to make their personal choice. i know a lot of people who did not want to get this vaccine but did it because they didn't feel they were pressured so much. they didn't feel like they could, could move for and they just went ahead and took it. and i respect their decision to their medical freedom. i respect people who don't agree with me. this is america

. and it's a beautiful thing when you can disagree with each other. that's what freedom is. we don't have freedom if we don't have people that disagree and i must point town to the united nations on the world. health organization have continued to stress. the pandemic can only be stopped through math inoculation. the while germany has registered its highest ever daily spike and covert infections, raising the prospects of tough new restrictions. $135000.00 cases have been reported in the last 24 hours, making it the wills, 4th, highest rate. the latest wave is said to be taking a toll on hospitals. the number of patients in intensive care, for example, as says 25 percent in recent days. one intensive care doctor we spoke to in yearbooks as the health care system has been pushed to the brain. first, the situation is very tense. all the beds are full, we're still trying to take care of the urgent cases as best we can on the one hand

retreat many cobra patients. but we also have to provide the rest of the medical care that is normally done. hospitals all reach to the limits, especially the larger hospitals that care for the most severe patients, both with and without covert for medical staff. we're now in the 4th wave on a is a huge burden and several german regions and are preparing hard hitting new measures to cope with this latest cove. it way with more on that. here's pete oliver scolded, figures in germany to not make for good reading as the theatre. 4th wave is very low to whistles. if we do not act this 4th wave will again bring a great deal of suffering. many people will fall seriously ill and die. and the health services will be under extreme pressure again. around 67 percent of the german population is fully vaccinated. but the numbers coming forward has plateaued in recent months. fronting politicians to fear that a new type of pandemic could be upon us. we are currently experiencing

a pandemic of the unvaccinated, which is massive. there would be few karone of ours patients on intensive care units. if more people would let themselves be vaccinated. the big worry now is that those people who haven't gone for a vaccination have no intention of doing so. and that may well lead to more restrictions on what people who haven't been jobs can do. if the pandemic situation in hospitals worsens than further restrictions for unvaccinated people are possible, some of germany, 16 states on waiting for a federal decision to be made. and i've already put in place new measures in bavaria mass, squaring will be mandated in schools. in the state of hassan, there's going to be a new testing system put in place for those. going to visit hospitals, old care homes, and in the state of bottom voting book, while you're going to need to show a p c r test, if you all run vaccinated and wants to go to a bar, a restaurant,

or theater. german business leaders want the government to give them the rights to impose the so called 3 g system. that means that anybody who is in vaccinated recovered or tested could be bod, from employment. some of germany's biggest companies of already brought in controversial canteen segregation, employees who being double jobs, can sit together and eats as normal. those who have nots or choose not to reveal their vaccine status, must remain in a cordoned off area where masks have to be worn when not eating. chemical giant via told r t. they may even take this further. depending on specific facility needs, a separate 2 g area is also created which offers immunized to employees a space with less distance to each other on a voluntary basis. this will be planned in close corporation with work representatives and site management in the uncontrolled areas of the can seen the

distance root of to meters from each other continues to exist and individual sitting is offered. all the big names in the german business world say they're reviewing the situation. goods some company say this just isn't the way forward. in the contains as of today now distinction is made between unvaccinated and vaccinated or recovered and blaze. currently we're not consider in separate contin areas. we treat everyone equally with germany posting record daily cove. it case numbers, politicians, business leaders and health care professionals all agree that something has to be done and all bracing for things to potentially get worse over the coming winter months. peter, all of a r, t, berlin to the us where recent local elections of down to see was a shall defeats for the by the ministration in new jersey, i self funded truck driver ousted the democrat as president of the state senate,

and there are increasing signs of a backlash against so name woke policies to mean to pack exploits. while it's looking like a case of you reap what you sow. turns out, forcing progressive policies on people who don't want them can lead to surprising results at the polls. case in point, the latest elections in the us, one of the biggest upsets, came from the state of virginia, where g o p. candidates, unexpectedly swept to victory and even established the 1st republican governor of virginia in over a decade. so let's climb that hill together. let's reinvigorate our future. let's reiterate this amazing commonwealth of virginia. god bless you all, god bless the talk. meanwhile, in other states, what was supposed to be a walk in the park for the democrats turned into a grueling battle with new jersey governor barely coming out on top to retain his seat. but if that wasn't already enough of

a wake up call for democrats. what happened next in new jersey amounted to political earthquake, edward dirt, a truck driver who raised $10000.00, but apparently spent only a $153.31 on coffee and flyers managed to defeat the states. long time senate leader democrats, steve sweeney, who had held his seat for over a decade and was considered the 2nd most powerful person in the state. it's like a movie script come to life. but how could something like this actually happen? well, the answer seems to be left. he policies. steve sweeney, has spent the last decade leading the effort to make new jersey the most tech state in the nation. his defeat displays how garden state voters have rejected the socialist policies coming out of democrat controlled trenton and they're hungry for fiscal sanity once again. so it turns out that raising taxes the funding, the police and ramming critical race theory down school children's throats is not quite as popular as the left and biden's administration would have you believe what

went wrong is just stupid woke this. i mean this, steve and the police lunacy this, take abraham lincoln's name off of schools. i mean that people see that it's just really has a suppressive effect all across the country around the democrats. some of these people need to go to a woke detox and throw something they're expressing a language that people just don't use and as backlash in a frustration of that. but while woke policies might seem like the likely explanation for why democrats lost so many seeds, there are those who actually see the whole thing as a resurgence of white supremacy. even if the people elected are, you know, black, it's not the messaging folks. this country simply loves white supremacy. white women are thrilled to have a cause in our lane that we can throw ourselves behind critical race theory, panic in which we can wring their hands about white children and obfuscate our white supremacy. this is what white women have done best since the fifties and will continue to do. dear media. republican voters are not excited by the issue of

education. republican voters are excited by the issue of white supremacy. while identity politics doesn't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon, in the u. s. political landscape, it's safe to say that elections like the ones in virginia, new jersey, highlight the average americans feelings towards the left and biden's policies in particular. and it seems they want a long overdue change of tone. the domestic side is not good. i mean, i do not think the world politics is the direction ago. and we've even got disagreements within the democratic party when it's almost like 2 different parties . um, you've got the progressive instead of pushing for one side, you've got modern on another side, and she's qualify. i mean, they lost their unifying figure, the unifying figure with president trump and, and now they're still trying to run against president trumpet, who's not there. if things continue the way they are, i think you're going to see a huge,

huge red wave. come come at the mid terms and you'll see both the senate and house flip. the bottom line is they need to listen to the people and what the people want . don't shut things down the people's throat that they're not interested in. and then they knew not believe it. of course, in france, ascentis emanuel microns disgraced former body, gone to a 3 year prison term. he was accused among other things of using excessive force against the protester. that was in an incident that was captured on film, which went viral in 2018. and it was a source of serious embarrassment for the french president is already shot to do was give them all well, this is alexander bonilla who as you mentioned was the deputy former chief of staff for president mack on this is the man who was chiefly organizing the protection of president mack on mainly doing his presidential campaign back in 2017 and then that 1st year and over that he was in office. this is

a man who is incredibly close to not just a manual mat gone, but also to his wife at the court found him guilty of several offences including fraud, to use of diplomatic passports. and as you mentioned there assaulting to protesters during a made a protest. now this is something that happened back on the 1st of may, back in 2018 where bonilla had asked to go as an observer to watch what the police do during a protest. these are protested often turn quite violent at the fringes and he said he wanted to see how the police carry out their jobs. but instead of just observing what happened, he got involved and then assaulted some of the protesters that was captured in the video. as you can now see, ah, with the elise

a was accused at the time of a cover up because it didn't report this incident to the police and been alice stayed in his job. in fact, this incident, oh, we came to light about 2 months later when that video and then video similar to that from different angles, were reported to revealed in the french press causing a political earthquake here in france. present mack on, in the end, did or for this half hearted apology, which is 50. i am proud of having hired alexander been allah. he made a mistake, a real one, a serious one that felt like a betrayal. i told him so. everybody makes mistakes. the response must be in proportion with this was a huge embarrassing for president mccord i just after a year after he had been elected given that during his campaign for that election, he had vowed to restore the public trust in public authority. here in france. and there we had been all

a gauge which shattered all of that image during the campaign. now in another blow for president mack on another head of security was also convicted today of also assaulting and roughing up protest. steering that same made a protest. he's now received a 2 year sentence as well, and this is not just a political earthquake that's been going on for the last 3 years. this is something that could now impact president mack on as he possibly seeks reelection in the next 6 months. those electrons moving very, very quickly. and this is coming at probably the worst time for him because it will remind voters of an incident that almost brought macklin and his government down the most embarrassing incident perhaps of his presidency. so far, the lad turned on its head. the dutch supreme court reverse is a ruling good, ordered russia to pay $57000000000.00 for michelle holders of the now defunct,

all john, you can find out why this happened after this short break. ah, join me every thursday on the alex simon, sure. i'll be speaking to guess from the world politics. sport. business. i'm sure business. i'll see you then. mm. oh, when i was showing wrong, when i just don't hold any new world. yes, to shape out disdain becomes the advocate and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart,

we choose to look for common ground in which we love, as adults is always built on a structure that was created 1st and childhood. so without understanding child relationships, it becomes very hard to understand your adult relationships. and that's why it's incredibly important to be able to have a basic understanding of what motivates you. as an emotional b. o, come back, her 2014 ruling mich ordered russia to buy billions of dollars in compensation to shareholders of a now defunct toil. john has been overturned by the dutch supreme court, the case and is around you cost, which was previously on by michael heard her cough ski once russia's richest man, aunt is my guest, the exploits. russia has welcome the dutch supreme court decision to uphold its

appeal against the 2014 you cost ruling. this is, by the way, the biggest ever arbitration case a 100000000000 you cost shareholders wanted, when they sued russia in 2005, they were awarded more than 50000000000 in 2014. but there have been plenty of twists and turns ever since russia has argued for many years that you cause shareholders have committed fraud. this is something that previously in its previous decision in 2014 the quote of arbitration. this is a matters refused to acknowledge the dutch supreme court has now said that it was wrong to refuse to look at this issue in that perhaps it is worth investigating. undoubtedly, there will be more twists and turns you call shareholders who get demanding at tens of billions and compensation for what they say is russia unfairly dismantling. you

got then and a huge oil giant and seizing its assets. russia arguing that for many years you cause had evaded taxes that its leaders had committed multiple tax offenses, another criminal act, and that russia acted by the law. thousands of green protesters have descended on glasgow city. the cop 26 climate summit led by celebrity act of his credits, and they're, they're not happy about what they see is being a mere talking shop. this is allie was in the thick of it here in the scottish city of glasgow, which is a full hosting the cop 26 summit. thousands of people marching earlier this afternoon to make their voices hud, and with those who are a fools leading, not some, it's in the for the many people that we manage to speak to, the message is clear. they want to see less in terms of talk from those who are

leading that some it a more in terms of concrete action to tackle and a vote depending crisis that they talk a lot. but when they, when it comes down to reaction, you got a lot other guy basically, and then it took about fossil fuels. in any of the negotiations, a cycle will still companies audio mentioned a good note that it's fine. i don't usually take in some kind of a millionaire. the name is kind of people are going in by private. yes. i we know that doesn't seem like a 26 conference and it shouldn't be. the $27.00 says get a sense of 9. so this should be critical, instrumental solutions rather than most offices are focus, right. if you like, i some taken today just carpet to mention me theme and car play to see i'd be part of a dance as well. now perhaps

a surprising voice that might agree with these protestors. lead of course, as they are by gretta suttonberg is the united states as climate envoy, john kerry hughes also echoed concerns words merely, i'm not enough and action is needed. now, tackle climate change, we are striving to make certain that this is a strong statement and implementable. that is the key. the words don't mean enough unless they are implemented. at all of us have seen years of frustration for promises are made not kept. we heard from a number of speakers on the stage behind me adjusting to thousands of people in attendance, including many from digital communities or the most affected why climate change for many of them, those voices shouldn't just be being heard out here in these protests, which should be part of the conversation taking place inside the summit, which thus far they say seemed to be only the preserve of the elite. we saw the far

think of them. and there was another protests near the cop 26 summit venue. this one carried out by ocean rebellion, who are furious about destructive industrial fishing practices. the fake blood spattered stents are active, stunning suits of fish heads, carrying briefcases with atrocities against sea life, written on the museum in the united kingdom, has removed a picture of a war hero because of his ties to slavery. lieutenant general sir thomas picton was the most senior british officer who died at the battle of waterloo in 1815. his portrait was on display at national museum wales in car difficult in the century. well being regarded as a public hero. he was also known for his harsh treatment of slaves. museum commissioned a year long projects, the probe the legacy of picked in and now plans to re display and reinterpret the portrait in a re angling of the way that he's present it for now though,

picked his portrait will simply be replaced the decision. many of reacting negatively saying that the past isn't black and white, and then we shouldn't try to hide what's inconvenient to explain. as a journalist, i feel uneasy about this element of censoring history should not picked and remain on display as a reminder to wales of an aspect of its past. no matter how disgraceful is that general sir thomas picked and killed in action at the battle of waterloo. in 1815 history is not yours discard histories that learn from so to say thing never happens again. the museum should be ashamed of itself. sir thomas picton was the most senior british officer today at waterloo, face in napoleon. his picture has just been removed from welsh national museum. no time for heroes. one day all humans will be canceled because once upon a time, they were owning cars. for the museums collections direct to things that the pictures removal is an important step in re examining national collections. and it's not the 1st time picked and related art has been removed early this year. kind of city council decided to put away

a marble statue of him from city hall. jealous marcus stand thinks that removing art is counter productive. i am reluctant to judge people from the past by the standards we live by to day. i mean times have changed massively, even in the last 3040 years, the painting should be available in cardiff museum for the public to see for visitors to see for school expeditions for children to see. but there should be a plaque underneath it, explaining that this man's legacy is hugely mixed. he had an appalling track record in terms of his role as governor of trinidad, particularly in the treatment of the 14 year old girl. but also she showed incredible bravery at the battle of waterloo when taking on the evils of napoleon. a nice things need to be put into a fuller context, the proper context. but at the same time, censoring people is not the solution. and censoring works of art is not the solution. the past doesn't disappear, just because you're taking down paintings or tearing electrical, tearing down statues. you've got to confront these things, head on and put it into

a proper context. and that's how you build bridges. and that's how you, you build a coherent society the british armed forces are wasting billions of pounds per year on procurement contracts, according to a parliamentary spending watchdog. now this comes after ministry of defense had received a substantial boost to his budget. the department system for delivering major equipment capabilities is broken in. it's repeatedly wasting taxpayer's money. we are deeply concerned about departmental witnesses, inability, or unwillingness taunts of basic questions and give a frank assessment of the state of its major programs. that department continually fails to learn from its mistakes. the prob, singled out a project to develop a jacks armored vehicles describing that as a catastrophe. none of them ready despite 4000000000 pounds worth of spending over the past decade of the 20 programs examined by the house of commons committee, 13 of them were behind schedule. the minster defense justified the delays though st

. procurements. a complex challenge from the military intelligence officer, philip ingram thinks that the minister needs to be more open about where all the money is going. the minister the fence has never been the best to trying to explain the money that is allocating in particular to its equipment program. but as, as some muscle disasters are historically the, the upgrade to the nimrod program. and more recently, as quoted in the guardian newspaper, the armies ajax recognizance vehicle and only 14 vehicles have been delivered and they are not fit for purpose. very, very large sums of money are split up into it being spent into a number of different financial years. and if it isn't spent in that financial year or too much as needed one financial year, it causes the whole accounting system to become unbalanced. and then when programs run very over, cost or problems evolve in the programs like is happening with the armies. ajax, that just adds another layer of complexity to it. the biggest changes that are

needed in the system are you to take a business minded approach and bring proper business people in to negotiate contracts, professional individuals who understand complex project management from a commercial procurement perspective. not necessary. just a defense perspective and can negotiate the contract properly so that whenever the written, the liability lies with the supplier, not with the minister defense and there for the taxpayer. that something has to come in and wraps it up for this broadcast more on our top stories coming your way or the latest updates in 30 minutes. i'm to see that virginia has roared and democrats are really republic, england, youngins, gubernatorial. when is nothing less than stunning? he is

a political novice and not the trump's arrogant. there's no other election how far reaching implications and it could signal the end of the biting presidency a or can do so because visionaries may sophie shepherd, not of so from an early age we strive to understand the world around us. but maybe we should do more to understand ourselves well today i'm asking lives big questions about love and happiness to philosopher and found.
