[000:00:00;00] a, with tonight, america's budget priorities put the pentagon to for the pandemic as president biden signs off on a massive $700000000000.00 defense plan. while washington's global vaccination campaign keeps running out of money with german politicians called upon the popular messaging telegram over hosting hate speech and cobit conspiracy. theories of moscow said that double standards after the german media criticized russia tried to do the same. it's a few years ago under mary leader slams australia's policy of automatically deporting new zealanders convicted christ, even if they spend their entire lives in the right. it is not good enough that new
12:01 pm
zealand is becoming a penal colony for australia and just reporting your problem. why does not solve the problem of gangs in both australia and new zealand with palo, they live from attended? i shall moscow will welcome to i will be, is it a pm? make kevin, i mean, 1st them, while the global covey pandemic continues. america is a different priority with joe biden. i was signing a massive $700000000000.00 military budget for the upcoming year in by america's own estimates. that's a 100 times more than the cost of vaccinating the entire planet. as our senior correspondent explains, it's bigger than it's bad as an ever before. america's new military budget, $777700000000.00. so vast it board doesn't monstrous. and it's still not enough,
12:02 pm
say the people who passed it are nations facing many threats right now. sri the paper every day china russia ran in yet that budget was actually pro provider by the white house. was a cut, pretty dramatic code. if you look at it, as john adjusted for inflation, it is remarkable. these lawmakers they'll, they'll sit there and argue for weeks months about maternity leave, or building roads or bridges or, or walls. but the better part of a trillion dollars on a war machine back. $88.00 for 11 against passed and the next day that will come to work and to congress and. and they'll wonder where the heck all their money went. i also find it amusing that senator mansion indicates his worry about the deficit after voting justice week for a military budget of $778000000000.04 times greater than build back better over 10 years and $25000000000.00 more than the president requested
12:03 pm
$778000000000.00. i mean $700000000.00 is a decimal here. a decimal. where rounding up and down by, by hundreds of millions, 16 times greater than rushes, military budget greater than the next 11 highest military budgets put together. a sudden that the human mind can barely comprehend somewhat of the extra billions going towards the secretary shall take appropriate action to increase the use of low emission initial free and net 0 initial energy technologies in the operations programs, projects and activities of the department provided these is cost effective on the life cycle of the innocent. there's also a new ranko position in the u. s. military. according to the n d, a draft bill. and that is gender advisor. so troops can get help if they feel like changing genders. we can only guess how many millions that's going to cost. and of course,
12:04 pm
none of this would be possible without china and russia because of whom the pentagon argued. it needed more money. in your sunday, we firmly opposed the u. s. slipping negative content, considering china, or making an issue out of china for political manipulation issue not implements negative content and articles in the act that target china and damaged chinese interests or hurts overall bilateral ties and cooperation and important areas. while the l g b t, q plus community may let out a sigh of relief, people that have been incarcerated. guantanamo bay innocence included without trial or justice for decades, will just have to wait a little longer. now one thing they didn't find any money for is, is a field doesn't plane tickets to send guantanamo inmates home or to court. unfortunately, he section 1032 of the act continues to bar the use of fonts to transfer a guantanamo bay. detainees to the custody or effective control of certain foreign
12:05 pm
countries, and section 1033 of the act bars, the use of funds to transfer guantanamo bay detainees into the united states unless certain conditions are met. it would cost an estimated $7000000000.00 to vaccinate billions. those who still can't get the vaccine. one percent of america's military budget, just one percent, to potentially hold the development of new strains and variance of coven. but no gender advise us in the electric cars for the pentagon. that's the priority. the more the pentagon spends on insanity, the more military contractors make money, isn't we're not at war with anybody. and why we need a military budget. the, his bigger than the next over 10 nations combined. i mean that's, that's nonsense. now, if you just ended that military industrial compet use ended this massive military
12:06 pm
state and let people spend their own money as they see fit. you'd see people spending their money to help people far more effectively than you as a i d ever does. to provide health care for people overseas and not using them might hurt people the way the military does. the popular messaging up telegraph might soon be restricted in germany over claims is not doing enough to combat extreme is content and cove and conspiracy theories. but it wasn't all that long ago when german media was criticizing. russia for trying to impose similar restrictions as mosque has been quick to point out. when in 2018 russian court imposed restrictions on the telecom app and prevent attended messages, almost every german media outlets reported about that so called violation of the freedom of speech in russia that now that political campaign is heating up in germany. guess what they're targeted with restrictions? telegram, well, it is all rather simple and se telegram in a way it revolutionized messaging and it brought a lot of good to the word to the world and it has changed to things. and it has
12:07 pm
changed the ways we will text each other, i should say. but of course, a telegram being one of the least regulated and apps for messaging. there's also another side for this medal it has harboured and has become a haven for all sorts of fringe groups. and while some of those groups might be rather innocent, others are not others or rather harmful. there are all sorts of extremists who are well organizing their there are all sorts of anti vax or movements which are, well they kind of get all the information or the misinformation, i should say from this messenger. they feed each other with this misinformation and they kind of exist in this little bubble of delusion or that telegram basically allows them, allows them to exist there and to coordinate their like, protests, actions, demonstrations and so on and so forth. and basically, dragons involve more people into the circle of covered dirt misinformation. and this is exactly the problem that germany has with telegram that it allows this sort of people to just exist and will to fester there. and so right now,
12:08 pm
they are accusing telegram of hate speech or they are looking for will legal ways to somehow will influence the company and to have the company or if they can't influence it, than to take it down altogether. and of course, the german government here we can all understand it because while harmful societies, they should not be allowed to just really exist on any platform. but basically this is where the hypocrisy bit comes in. because when russia back in 2018, try to do the exactly same thing, the exact same thing to block telegram because there were terrorists and extremists plotting and you know, coordinating their actions there. nobody wanted to listen to russian. they weren't having any of that. germany was outraged, all of europe was outraged. this was their rhetoric. the blocking of telegram is yet another sound development concerning freedom of speech pluralism and the right to privacy in russia. this is the sort of will rhetoric we heard back in 2018. well,
12:09 pm
compared to what germany is saying right now, we must quickly create a legal option for switching telegram. so has to be much reaction them from the german public over this you can see one of the headlines, for example, that there are, there are very, very heated debates over well targeting telegram all sorts, all sorts of that bush as he of hatred for example, right? now those politicians, those german politicians who are calling for a blockage of telegram for to band the app, they are getting a bit of their own medicine. so now the public and their world politics, political rivals, they kind of fight back and they accuse them of violating free speech. it does not fit in with a free constitutional state to simply switch off digital platforms. this proposal fits into totalitarian regimes but not into our constitutional order. switching off an entire app is a form of state media censorship that we do not want in germany. so there you have it, and it's not the 1st case recently of germany being accused of, well, you know,
12:10 pm
not being that dedicated to the freedom of speech. principal r t, 's sister channel in german deutsch. it has been banned in germany, even though it had every legal right to exist than to well to appear on the airwaves. germany justified the decision by saying that the channel should have, should have received a german broadcasting license. even though there are no legal grounds to do that, we're being told by experts it received a broadcasting license and serbia, which is good enough for the entirety of the you. but germany wasn't having that. and so there have been some accusations of well that germany is not as dedicated to the freedom of speech principal as it may be, wants to appear on the line. it goes down of reporting where we spoke with mateo, donnie commentator at tech travel geeks. the things blocking one platform though isn't going to stop the spread of extremist content. obvious a telegram the users who and telegram at the moment i shouldn't have too much of an issue. moving to whatsapp apples i message platform,
12:11 pm
google's messaging chat platform. there are loads of different messaging apps and services. and let's not forget that also dedicated social media platforms. which make it even easier to distribute this type of information or to congregate and discuss these topics. it's also very, very contradictory. we're some time about 10 years ago. in the, in the arab spring, we were celebrating these platforms for enabling uprisings across the mcgray. but in the middle east, it's one of those things that i think is very contradictory. it's fine when it suits it, but then you fight against it when it doesn't. ah, next, sorry about an indigenous leader in new zealand. he says that the strain is using his country as a dumping ground. the national murray authority chairman, was camera, a scrap. it's policy of deporting new zealanders when the convicted of crimes. it is not good enough that new zealand is becoming
12:12 pm
a penal colony for australia and just deporting your problem. why does not solve the problem of gangs in both australia and new zealand? it is not good enough just to say we're gonna stick a whole lot of people on applying on a government chat, applying and seen them back to new zealand. that is not the spirit of friendship that you would expect between 2 neighbors under strained law. if foreign nationals are sentenced to more than one year in prison, they automatically lose the right to stay in the country that applies even if they've lived in a state of their entire lives. the last couple of years have seen hundreds of people sent back them to new zealand. australia is immigration, ministers defend the policies, say the government will continue to expel foreign nationals who commit serious offenses. matthew, to khaki. those says it needs to work with new zealand to find a better solution. now, i would say, did that australian citizen, you know,
12:13 pm
it's easy just to deport the problem away. and australians want exactly what we want. we want saif communities. we do not want to say drugs being sold to our children. we are sick and tired of st. gun violence on our streets. one possible solution is a joint task force to address a couple of different things. and even though our police forces by dosier information, data and intelligence at the moment, that would be good to see if we could just increase and including and beastie and joint resources. that, that means also having a look at information and intelligence to find out we are these drug supply networks establishing themselves across south east asia, even into the pacific and being lead do that job to get as strongly and you feel it . and that ends expert last question tonight, should parents have more say, what their children are taught at school? according to nicole, hannah jones, they shouldn't, she's the found, or the controversial 16000000 team project regimes that rephrase us history in
12:14 pm
terms of race and abuse, divisive, i don't really understand this idea that parents should decide what's being taught . i'm not a professional educator. i don't have a degree in social studies or science, we send our children to school because we want them to be taught by people who have an expertise in the subject area. and that is not my job. as the parents, i have every right to ensure my child isn't being towards life despite what nicole 100 joe says. how can this be promoted to share anyone else to say, parents don't get a say in our children's education position is faulty and shouldn't be listen to and must have a platform or moved, sorry, but parents must be involved. come on, you pesky parents. just let her indoctrinate your kids in peace. but a back story here, hannah jones launch the 1619 project with the new york times 2 years ago. it's go to highlight the legacy of slavery and the contributions of black americans
12:15 pm
throughout us history. the date content from the project has been included in the school curriculum in at least 5 us states. we discussed some more with legal unless jennifer braden to master and also with political activist anthony rogers, right. fortunately in america right now, the political faction is kind of taking over everything else including education. i think that's some of the concern here because really what you're trying to do is refrain retrain, children's mind. and that's, that could lead and, and, and we're seeing this now the rise and anxiety and political issues in children getting younger and younger every year. and i think parents have a right to be concerned about that. the major issue here is that a professor hannah jones is actually talking about the truth and, and that's what's lacking so much in this nation right now. and it's really, really sad that even the most far right wing people in germany can accept the fact that there were nazis that carried out atrocities the fact that this nation was forge and
12:16 pm
a cauldron of white supremacy. slavery indigenous genocide and lance matching is not alive at the end of the day. this is a fear of the right from hearing and having to embrace the truth. it's funny that the people on this side, the i are also talking about. also talking about not the germany because not the journey with a, with also the government and the, or the leadership there that it started to import the propaganda into the population to say if you agree or you don't, that is my colleague saying here, that's what some of these new educational politicians are trying to are trying to impose on children on young children. and all that's going to do is continue dividing the population because one thing has happened from this the, the claim to be the moral hybrid. it claims to be the beacon of truth, but all it's doing is dividing people confusing children and wanting children to turn against each other. i don't even know what just happened. that was a very interesting soliloquy. again,
12:17 pm
we're not trying to tear people apart from each other. a truth is truth. if truth is going to hurt people that's on, on the people. and what you just heard in this very myopic, and so, a soliloquy is that it's some sort of political motivation. truth just is, is, is truth. you cannot deny what has happened in this country. what is happening in this country. and you cannot deny that this country was founded in an image and a lens of benefiting white people at the expense of other people. and that's just a fact you can absolutely talk and teach about history and about what's happened in this country, the heretic, things of labouring without having to completely de do as completely unravel the fabric and the foundations of this country's history. but when it comes to truth, migrant, we are so far from one that used to mean it's not a relative term. well, next night, frances registered europe's highest, ever daily spike and covert cases with 200002 the past 24 hours. the health minister is described as
12:18 pm
a tidal wave is going to cross it for neighboring germany. pull asleep to my a poll evening. this is a picture plane us across a lot of europe right now, but from seems to be really in the, the storm. what's the latest for us? while the latest announcement is certainly concerning, not only to france, but here across europe. as you quickly mentioned, the french health minister announcing that france has crossed the threshold of more than 200000 people, testing positive for covert in the last 24 hours. if you break that down, it's 2 french people testing positive. if we 2nd for 24 hours, including daytime and nighttime, the actual figure was $208000.00. now, the french minister made that announcement while he was motivating to turn the mandatory health path into a vaccination path. so in other words, people will have to show proof of vaccination if they are to enter any kind of topics, places, bars, restaurants, and cultural venues. at the same time, b,
12:19 pm
health minister spoke about galloping circulation and said, these kind of figures make you dizzy. take listen, if you want to do him and miss it is the only con, very hand, but it's not just a wave anymore. given the numbers we are recording, it's a title wave. tonight's figures show the continuous increase. it makes you dizzy. now, 5000000 people in fonts have not as of yet received the vaccination. the health minister ascribing to primarily 2 reasons. he says the one group is people who are far away from information and potentially fall away from any kind of vaccination sites. and the number of people that fall into this category is hard to determine. but then there's a nother group of people who are against against the vaccine. what ever comes and here, turning a health path into a vaccination pos is not going to help him. these are people who believe that covert doesn't exist, that the vaccine can, can kill
12:20 pm
a person. and there's no way to try and convince these. anti faxes fonts now has the highest number of covert positive people per day in europe. its hospitals are already struggling to deal with people who have been admitted with the previous delta strain. and so they're increasing concerns that although the army cons so far, seen mulder. but certainly we all go into witness frances health services being pushed to the limit, you know, pull a tough few weeks coming up her over the new year will thanks the update from the, from central europe. her next to tapping into fears of rising pollution and climate change. businesses are increasingly pumping up their eco friendly credentials. but much of it's just market say we ask nazis, peter, all of us next and tonight looks at has some consumers in europe, a being duped by so called green washing. as we learn more about our impact upon the climate as increasing impetus on us all to keep that in mind when it comes to
12:21 pm
purchases. and that's also been seized upon by advertisers who are very keen to push their product as the best one for the environment. jim and consumer rights group food watch handout, a yearly award. the golden cream puff which shames those products that pitch themselves as green. but in reality, they're using climate concern to just shift more units. our diet has it's sharon, the huge problems we face to day. the food industry now wants to cash in on consumers, need for more sustainability and his marketing their products as a way of saving the environment and the climate. these of the products on german shells that made up the top 3 this year when it comes to green washing or promoting yourself is good for the climate when really, you're not in the bronze medal position on these coffee capsules. from hamburg faced coffee roasted j. j damp oven in partnership with the swiss. corporate giant morgan pick branded as composter,
12:22 pm
bowl and biodegradable. they are anything bought and waste companies will struggle to do anything with them other than incinerator them. second place goes to this bottle of volvic water, climate neutral, certified according to the packaging. it's a plastic bottle, so that's already not stacking up user usable. if you can, also, this water has to be transported all away from france when that's perfectly good, much better for the environment. water coming out of tops and drinking fountains, volvic and their parent company dianon did have this to say in their defense. since august 2020, we have only used recycled pedi for our disposable bottles. for long transport routes. these bowels are the ecologically most sensible packaging. also, the company has launched a regional mineral water that is sold in class deposit bottles. this year's winner was the see from ok to river and there climate neutral chicken breasts. there's a lot of c o 2 produced getting
12:23 pm
a chicken from farm to supermarket river promise that is offset through a scheme that finances climate protection in the rain forests of peru. the problem is, according to the investigative work of food watch, that program doesn't seem to have had any of the desired effect. it can be demonstrated that the rate of deforestation in the critic terrier, actually more than doubled after the project started. here's what we're ever had to say for themselves. the revery group had already reacted and as climate partner is the project manager to submit an assessment based on the information available. unfortunately, this was previously not possible because the author of the study had not made direct contact with the rapid group climate partner or the local project developer boskus amazon. of course, this would have made the false allegations easy to refute. while the companies named in this particular awards ceremony are keen to stress that their climate action is legitimate. i guess the big takeaway is to make sure that when you buy
12:24 pm
something that advertises itself as good for the climate that they are going further than just a label on a bottle or a box. peter, all of our, our t, berlin. as checking in to light times exactly year 24 minutes past the on or next, the russian blogger accused of defending terrorist ideology has been released from custody. and st. petersburg is no subject, no to a night time home detention order. while the trial continues as get less on this, so from a corresponding franco tonight, any a hi. this case, get a lot of people talking, isn't it? kevin, good evening. well, every time that the russian law enforcement are after a blogger, or a senior, a wrapper in this country with a multi 1000000 audience, it's always a big deal. indeed. blogger, uri savanski, was very popular online in russia. and of course, the army of followers and fans, the liberal media as well. they are following every twist and turn in this case. so
12:25 pm
this decision to peddle back on blogger obama detention just ahead of perhaps the number one holiday on the calendar. in russia, the new year's eve was a massive supplies for everyone. indeed, he will be allowed to go home. however, there are still a number of restrictions. he won't be able to leave his place after 6 pm. you won't be able to use the internet or talk to any witnesses apart from his girlfriend. now i can tell you that he was in detention since june. this year after, i suppose it the singing about a brutal acts of terrorism in moscow that have an almost 20 years ago and took the lives of 130 people again. supposedly he used to swear word that is synonymous to awesome about that particular act of terrorism. but we do have to
