ah some stories on recalling the new cove it strain from south africa presents a high risk globally. the w h o says as it spreads around the world with nations, no counseling flights and even keeping the fully vaccinated in isolation. shoplifting and vandalism is the festive season begins. flash mob and smashing. grab robberies. put us authorities to the test and parents of the school in texas have their personal details posted online after they spoke out against critical race theory mask mandates. we hear from one of them and he posted our personal information and our addresses to and told the internet to, to a jacket letter guy threatens a bunch of us out of school for me. ah,

just in 4 pm, this monday, the 29th of november to remind sco welcome to the program life marty's world views age q. it's kevin, now in here with our latest for you for the next 30 minutes. sadly, we're starting to talk about cov, it again, all the latest in all by om recruitment is causing havoc around the world. new coven mutations been highlighted. there's a variance of concern by the world health organization and has already been detected in multiple countries that are also phase. it's highly contagious, and even those who have fully vaccinated could easily get it. nations have already started closing their borders to prevented spread. and now we've got few, the 1st images of this new strain originally detected in south africa. it's been published by italian researches on the right. they are saying this is for non medical people like me on recording on the left, the delta variance. the air is showing us, got many more mutations this time,

rounded. it means that the virus has yet further adapted. although it's still not clear must be crystal clear on this ourselves, whether it's more dangerous or not. but while governments are trying to get a handle on that, many people have found themselves stranded in south africa as travel bands are imposed. i'm devastated. i feel let down by my government. we are relying on information on the internet. if no one knows what's going on, we have done everything. we are tripoli vaccinated, we have done everything is good citizens and now we on able to get home every day heard and frustration at us across the whole day to basically guard, to be with the children. we don't know when we will be able to make it now. 76 years old, very. it is a fear because at this time how can i can go to motor without see more family monday the countries president. so pose

a game say to the nation of grace in which he criticized the international community for making such a quick decision without enough research, international community to reconsider option. but i think speaking to people who believe that this is a case of double standards, for example, we spoke to south african who is heading back to the united states and believe that part of the reason that he was taken off the plane was because he was south africa and they treated me like a common criminal, 3 meal supply and i didn't get my luggage back. told me, i'm not a problem. and then i said, what did i do? then i said, the cabin attendance said she told me 3 times to put my face more thought, i've read the rules. it says you're allowed to take up your more while you eating and drinking. i was doing. this was the by new rules. it was so so, so, so paranoia from the still that would in session while the things that have been

developing here in south africa are very emotional. the 1st announcement of this new strain was on thursday and it took the government and it took the, the tourism industry, essentially completely by surprise. and within hours you had most of the world's airlines canceling. they fly. i've, i just few days as the a port and say you have people who's been pixel flights in a matter of minutes. sometimes people were really on the flight 10 minutes from take off and and then the announcement came that they had to get all the flight of people who were on the roof of the countries and the plains were turned back. people here feel complete, he lay down, you have a strong feeling of people having being stranded because you have so many people here who need to get back to work. who need to get back to families overseas and who often suck in south africa. why do you get back in a if you still con travel? and if you still can be with your family,

i have family in south africa. my sister lives in south africa, and i've not seen her in close to 2 years since of colbert and my daughter, and i was trying to south africa now to find any be with her and her family. i think it's important, but the us is doing and around the world to be cautious, especially not knowing what the new variant is doing. but it's also on the same point. very frustrating and upsetting for what it's doing to people around the world and not been able to see their families. now what's important to notice is that coming up to the tourism month here in south africa. busy the month of december and for the last 2 years because of covert industry has have the kind shock 3, talking to people here. they say that this is not going to be the end of the south african truism that we so much money in. you have a problem here in south africa where there are millions of people who have not been vaccinated and who refused to be vaccinated for 30, the international community, of course, of that. at the same time,

the scientists in south africa have come out and say that this new varian has been depicted in many countries around the world. and they believe that south africa should be congratulated for being the 1st to identify and come forward with the information rather than being solely blamed well being responsible for spreading. let's go live now to someone else has been very much affected by this. jessica was netscape south africa and who lives in television because these latest restrictions she was unable to port a flight to south africa. you'd be open to visit a close relative who's receiving cancer treatment. hello there. thanks for making the time to come on with us considering what you've been. so women's, this flight last night this morning. recently. yeah, it was meant to be tonight and i would pack everything was ready to go. i'd packed up my apartment and then this happened. yeah, and how did you find out about it because it's gotten very quickly in it. yeah, i think that was the craziest thing. you know, just in a few days everything completely changed. i was alex, i got a message from

a friend, checking the news, and then more and more news updates had to keep checking. not knowing what would happen. and then within 3 days, i mean it's all just completely changed and there's no way i can go back. i know you were trying to get out of israel at the same time, the israel's clothes, his porter to, to tourists. and i was on a flight in for the u. k. last night. and literally on told the flight we were told that at the airport we had a p c r test. again, i just had one, but when we came into the airport several rushed to keep up with it. was it also anything to do with israel closing his port non citizens or was it just the fact that the airline took this decision in your case? yeah, in terms of africa, as far as i know, the latest i've seen is a 5000 shekel. bond. anyone traveling to the to see of the red countries in, in africa. so even if i wanted to go, i don't think there's any way i could. and also coming back in terms of parenting

in a hotel which i've done before. and it was really, to be honest, quite romantic. i don't think i could go through that again. it's a horrible experience. well, especially, well another britain, the on the pretty side is about 2000 pounds to, to stay in the hotel. i was, i suppose that's going to be the same. and i guess he's like it in other countries to is right. you don't have to pay for it, which is why that's a horrible experience and something i couldn't do again. and i'm the guy now i'm just stuck. yeah, i was gonna also have a vacation for a week and take tell my husband was also going to come from london to take sounds like you've mentioned i was going to visit his family member who i haven't seen in quite a long time. and all of these kinds of just been chances are that for cause saying it feels penalize takes, it brought it to the world's attention. but then all of a sudden these flight restrictions were coming in and they say they're really unhappy about that. do you think it's been too much or do you think there's no time to be wasted here with this kind of thing? yeah, i think i think israel and other countries, it's wonderful how quickly they acted. i did just see

a friend today and she said to me, all the sub african barriers, and i really, i stopped and i said, it's not because the african varian for africa was just has wonderful scientists who were able to discover this. so i think the journalist and the well really need to restructure the weather, explaining the not to blame. so africa, i think to, to congratulate that. because as i mention that i do, that i do congratulate the world, the leaders for taking such quick action. but i do think that they really need to be properly informed before making decisions that really affect the lives of so many people. can i ask if you go to cobra policy, but not collective? don't talk about it's absolutely fine, but that would make no difference. i suppose even if you had an okay lation, what would go any further onto the flight or no, i have been vaccinated 3 times. so i am back tonight and to be in the made any difference? did you say to really briefly, you weren't getting any money back from the airline in this case or was there is knocking the flight? all they know they have they, they said they will refund it,

but within 6. 0, so we have to that to happen. that's fair, but money i guess as well. all right, well listen, thanks for coming in. i'm really sorry to hear you couldn't see your room relative though they are. okay. but so jessica, missing sky, south africa, new lives in television, and currently still in television for the foreseeable of a good day. and thanks for love and out into national thank adviser to the italian health authorities telling us the current preventative measures are only having a limited impact on the new strain. and it could be our reality for years to come. as the u. k is reproducing quarantine and government monday to the hotel for people coming from south africa. britain's health secretary also believes cove is going to be with us. in some form, he said, forever. he was asked to learn to live with coven. we will never defeat it. we have to learn to live with it. we have to learn to live with it as we have learned to live with flu. of course it is not flu and we need to learn more about in cases of,

of new come have already been discovered in germany in belgium, the czech republic. and there are at least 13 cases in the netherlands that came after a flight of individuals came in from south africa. now, in a separate development, dutch police had to raid plain just before it was about to take off. after it emerged that 2 of the passengers on board had been in a quarantine hotel and had escaped from that desperately trying to leave the netherlands to try and get home as that panic is spreading. it turns out that the quarantine hotel that they had escaped from ad there were individuals who had presented with the omnicom. strange, you really get a sense of just how scared people are at the moment. some individuals are now facing a lengthy stays in quarantines, which are incredibly costly, particularly in the u. k. for me there is just no ways i can afford 50000 rand,

which is equivalent to 2 and a half 1000 pounds to be in a hotel in london. when my home is around the corner and, and i live on my own, we are consult oscillate. and secondly with the job that i was meant to start. if i'm now i'm starting approximately 3 weeks later, which means i'm 3 weeks without seller which is basic, have worked it out, which is basically my rent money for the month. i'm a british citizen and i've lived there for 23 years. i have to find a way the government has to do something about the hotel quarantine and people are up in all that got government con, make these rulings and then expect there citizens to pay for it. you know, for those who were fully vax, as we heard from those individuals facing problems from south africa, they really thought perhaps this pandemic was about to be over, at least for them because they followed all of the guidance. they done everything that they were asked to have done. so this must be coming now is a bit of a cold shower for people in europe to realizing that having 2 or 3 jobs just isn't

enough. when we faced these new strains that we know so little about in france, the french health ministers resigned to the fact that omnicom will be found here and says that the government needs more time to look at it, look use if you don't. and with only the you, since it's circulating in the u. k. italy, in belgium, it's probable that there is a case in circulation and france. researchers are looking at whether vaccines must be modified, but it's too early to say, since it was only discovered a few days ago. scientists who i spoke with on the telephone yesterday, including internationally say we need a period of around 10 days to know more. meanwhile, the ministers, the health ministers from the g 7 countries will meet later on monday to discuss this new variant and how it possibly can be tackled at the same time as the experts i really left in a situation with a race to understand exactly what this mutation means and what that means for the

a fight for the end of this pandemic. this was western government pushed the citizens to get a booster shortly. well, health organizations expressed opposition to rich nations extending their inoculation programs at the moment. while vaccination rates remain low in poor countries, k same point, much of africa. for example, it's got less than 10 percent of the population as had a single dosier. no more vaccines should go to countries that have already vaccinated more than 40 percent of their population. until kovacs has the vaccines, it needs to help other countries get that to normal boosters should be administered except to immunocompromised people. most countries with high vaccine coverage continued to ignore our call for a global moratorium on boosters. is a huge point of conversation these days. we put it up for debate with a pamela guests. them it would make no sense to ensure that most people at least

get their 1st dose of the vaccine love and then pushing for people to have the the booster. but then i think, oh importantly, we have to look at the efficacy of the actual vaccine because we still know that people who have stumbled asia can still past and then also still and be affected by the virus or finance. ready one of the issues that i think they should be, meaning that, you know, i've seen that education is key because we do still have a lot of hesitant people not wanting to take the vaccine. and also just really, it just seemed quite unfair that it's still mandate. nice is now mandatory that health workers should have the vaccine. i think it should also include education, the immunity generated by vaccination. decays, it over time, particularly actually in the hopefully most vulnerable. and certainly up to 6 months. these boosters just really have a really significant impact. we're seeing that in real world data from israel, for instance, where they've rolled out the booster campaign. so we can see the value of booster

shot. you know, variances are going to continue to be generated as those of ours is allowed to spread, particularly in countries. indeed like south africa, where vaccination, right? so lower than what this emphasizes the need to control the pandemic at the global level as well as locally. and it's all, it is in all our interests to support the role of axis across the world. and we should be in a position where we're having to choose should be supporting the increased manufacturing distribution of vaccines. and we should choose between boosters for the most vulnerable an hour late and whether or not somebody else who hasn't been back friday gets their 1st job. right. so i told them all the new covariance spreads across the world. no, to worry about what is going to lead to main type, joe biden, and the mayor of san francisco, both and hot water facing a public backlash of to violating their own mask mandates. what find out more about that r t dot com ah. away from cove it this next wave of

smash and grab robberies shipped the u. s. during thanksgiving on the weekends. black friday sales with many pointing out that the police seem to be overwhelmed at the moment with the level of crime that are up to and with the christmas holidays, just around the corner, people are asking if authorities can actually keep their city safe with a hands apparently so tied up with new policies such could taylor's on the story. remember the days of good cop bad cop while back on in case you missed a memo. now every cop is a body. well, we need to completely dismantle minneapolis police department. i. 7 know, often towards floyd's modern people came for policing,

budgets were slashed forces and no go stop and such without accountability was in. so where are we now? while the politicians who pull the money plug, leaving police departments high and dry, might feel safe from that gated communities. but for the rest of america? well, from coast to coast, from small town to big cities, crime is on the rise. one year and the biggest annual spike of homicides in 60 years later states now trying to false truck or return to the good old days of law in order to reverse the tide of rising crime, we need to stop demon demonizing and sabotaging the dedicated men and women who risked their lives every single day to keep the rest of us safe enough is enough. we can not the fund the police. we need to re fought the police. instead of less funding,

we need more investment in public safety and a knife in the back of the democrat law makers everywhere. almost 90 percent of marilyn's black voters back him because if they have been most affected by fewer patrol cars in the neighbourhood, and this isn't a one off. this yet has seen a wave of pro police candidates be elected all across the country from liberal seattle to minneapolis. keep very pace. george floyd died at the hands of a police officer. the lift really does go on. it turns out that lol assess is not as exciting in real life as it is in the westerns and for the democrats already terrified of the mid term bloodbath. this could be a death knell already blue republicans, the proud gun toting law and order party a polling 8 percent higher than democrats nationally. it's almost like voters have realized that it's one thing to shout a slogan to make a gesture. it's another thing to come up with

a real game plan. it does not present any sort of plan for what will come after. there is no specificity as to what services would provide what law enforcement would look like. what residents can expect. police might be back in demand, but it looks like too little too late. the usaa saying record numbers of offices leaving the force and recruitment numbers away down despite all types of incentives to boost them. when you start treating those who hunt for criminals as the criminals themselves, then also willing to go out and take a bullet few, a lot of the competent people who would make good police offices, a refraining because they feel that they can go to prison for doing their job, 3, a police officer, you put your life in jeopardy. now some feel they're not protected. the criminals have more rights than police officers today. the cow for what you wish for what started as a cat t slogan and a bed to be down with the voters turned into a radical agenda. that's been kind to criminals and cruel to the lawful. well,

even a spike in crime, in the us kind of scared the reach of the new woke world and you have to be careful not to offend anyone. of course, he's a show guy than your progressive guy to being less offense. and according to people who know better living organized, repeat, answer me, organized, smash, and grand. in the next episode, undocumented sex affair be against mask mandates and critical race. there's apparently enough to get to in texas anyway docs having your private details revealed online. in other words, parents, they claim that's what's happened to a member of a racial equity committee in a local school district. they claim the ridiculed for the abuse on c r t and the

legal case, challenging mask mandates, told daniel was on the list and explain just what happened. we filed a lawsuit against our vocal, i sd, that was to block an illegal mask mandate. and as a result of that, we got a bunch of kick back. this one lady who docks us. she's on what you call a racial equity and diversity advisory committee. oh said our personal information, our addresses and all and contact information, our businesses and so forth. and told the internet to, to attack us, there was another instant also another guy threatened a bunch of us at a school board meeting climbing. he's going to bring a 1000 soldiers and so forth locked and loaded. we, we've reported it to the school district. we've reported to the, the city and to the mayor targeting parents to disagree with policies

becoming more and more common in the states has another instant reported recently in arizona. we reported only here a couple of weeks back. a school board president was accused of collecting da says on parents, including the social security numbers and financial records. although he denied any involvement, he was sat from his post critical race theory, as well as mass mandates of causing so much tension these days between school boards and parents is even come to the attention of president biden. one association, citing threats from parents and comparing the disagreement domestic terrorism with you as the attorney general, the f b i now involved will tell daniel telling us why parents are standing up now. 2 academic officials of why this so angry. after the mask on lawsuit, we were joined by many people and we just keep finding more and more problems. you know, our, our school district is a, is about a, a d level by state average. so that means we have 3rd graders that can't reach out

to, to grade level. and yet they spend millions of dollars on putting on social justice and equity and diversity training into everything. it's political. they use equity in diversity to actually re institutionalized racism. you know, it, they call themselves anti racist but they're, they're really racist. we are fighting back. we're trying to get rid of it at the state level in our school level. um, and so it's a big problem in the state of texas and all over the country actually that i've been working with with other parents and actually teachers that are frightened and terrified that this is, this is taking over our education system in the united states. more than 11 percent of the population in afghanistan is addicted to drugs, according to the latest figures released by the u. n. that's more than twice the global average. the report also estimates that income from opiates in the country

could be as high as $2700000000.20. all this, while the new government says it's trying to change the situation by sending the eggs to rehabilitation centers the i called without a hold on, i am thankful to these cameras for bringing me here for treatments. they took care of me and as each day goes, by feeling better ah, over a

group i started to take hashish and then heroine. i lost my family and my job, i have 5 children. they come to visit me here, drugs have destroyed my life. i hope i will get completely healthy and go back home . i want to be a normal father carrying for my family. ah, because i've sent all of us. we have a shortage of food medicine, beds and stuff before the new government. there was no external funding from any source, only the health ministry was responsible for our expenses. i hope that the new regime will provide us with additional resources. but in the worst case scenario, we will continue to support these people and help them go back to a normal life. i'm afraid of a sad picture in the front of canister on top of everything else is going on there

. that's the way things look in sofa. we want you to stay close to the latest. this new cove at variance and what's known so far is changed by the hour. and what is may be good, i mean for a soul around the world in the coming days and i was all over there. other stories about t dot com, but for now reporting from all sco, my name is kevin or somebody from ex programs and thank you for watching us in to national ah, well it's showing wrong when i just don't know. i mean, you have to figure out this thing because the answer to an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground.

lacy media continued to prepare a western audiences for a military conflict. and ukraine under the war of choice also be united states doesn't export much these days, maybe except for so called values by those values attractive anymore with mm hm. with dime, action, or dance in your watching, going underground. 24 hours ahead of a meeting of nato foreign ministers. and as israel lebanon relations,

a disgust of the un security council, lebanon has long been a key front in the cold war, conflicts, and arguably still is the capital bay ruge would play host to the most successful communist known to penetrate the british secret services. kim fil, be a new book about his time in may route, not only explores the life and loves of the legendary double agent, but also scrutinize is the role class played in britain's cold war defeats. and it's all the former deputy editor of the independent on sunday or in britain, james hanning joins me now. james, welcome to going undergrad. so tell me about what's new. i mean, i thought everyone knew about kim phil be the most famous of british by after james bond. well, i thought i thought we all know the po, restore, it's been done to death, but actually i, i looked into the pit cuz i cuz i got some credits and stuff from a former colleague bronze soule ah, about about the circumstances in which will be left period and i started looking into it and i saw actually, i didn't know this. i didn't know this about the american wife. i didn't, and there was loads of stuff i thought. and he's well as big as who's in the sort

of public consciousness. but actually one once i've, i certainly i find i'd forgotten an enormous amount about it. mindful of those so many new elements to it, especially and around sula and former are critic of a london paper who new entity, blunt. so you have the queen's, a hanger of pictures as it were, but i mean, we had andrew lonnie on about his book on fill be in his as reachable recently. and you eco, his view and other views. this is a huge class dimension to this. he was protected, defacto, protected as a soviet agent did the highest echelons of britain's intelligence services because of his class. well, that's right. yes. of course, they didn't know he was a, he was of our sense by bed, but everybody assumed that he was a nice chap and his father had been, was well established and been to cambridge. and he'd known lots of people at cambridge and saw. and it was assumed he was a nice guy and he was very likable, very polite, very kind or quite charismatic. i think very care.
