moscow will have to take a calendar with also in the program, cuddle your pets, and do star jobs. if you want to stay warm this winter. a major british energy company feels the heat for its advice. all energy prices are just going through the roof. i think i've completely lost the loss on that. well, i have to say when i was, she paid it to me. crazy. never in house because we're trying to get down with . all right, so with the top stories of the week, the main headlines all today. welcome to the weekly or, or not to international tennis start. novak joker fish looks set to be deported, and miss the australian open is offer. a court upheld the decision to revoke his visa in a statement at the australian prime minister said the protection of the countries borders was paramount. i welcome the decision to keep our borders strong and keep

australian safe. strong borders are fundamental to the australian way of life, as is the rule of law. our government has always understood this and has been prepared to take the decisions and actions necessary to protect the integrity of our borders. now i saw that hawkins starting, i say, live in a studio on this sunday afternoon. daniel, is that it is out. it's a joke of shoulders australian open for sure. even if he was so appeal, which is expressed intent not to do already. it would be too late for the thought to be open, which, as you said, takes place in less than 24 hours. now, the decision, all of those 3 judges only federal court of appeal was unanimous. the reasons for that decision they will give a little later, but they have upheld the decision by bill straight. immigration minister addict for the revoke at joker, which is visa base, as he argued on the health and safety of australia. i'm a safe and security of the country's borders, saying that his presence in the country would stoke in his appeal and the

sentiments and even according to him, in fight civil unrest. now the key difference here between the 1st court case of course, which ruled in favor absorb showing the 1st appeal was the 1st court case was very much based on technicalities bureaucracy, whether he had the right to interest trailer based on the form he filled in with his medical exemption joker because of where you apologized for filling in that form. wrongly he said that was down to human administrative error. and the judge in the 1st case, ruled in his favor. in this case, the court decision or the court job were all the was not to pause judgement on the decision of alex war, but rather, and whether he had overstepped his powers, the discretionary power to revoke joke, which is visa and they have ruled that was not the case, the australian providence of scott morrison, they're speaking very clearly mentioning the safety of board of the security board of quite what this has to do with borders. and critics cannot see,

including the president who was very scathing about the treatment. a joke of it's received or trailer earlier today it was very easy for us. well enough for it is to say from the very beginning that okay, only vaccinated on inoculated people could enter australian territory. but it, in the face, hope everything completely different story, including this medical exemptions, i think was friday and what's right for it is committed to themselves was this kind of procedures pressing against your courage. what i know is that novak is always the 1st one to stand for the players, but none of us did for him. be strong. rules are rules, they say then lose their own court, then find a way to cancel his visa anyway. so what rules with a referring to in the 1st place? oh, i forgot election soon. stay strong. we can make 3 takeaways we from this court's

decision. 3 peas if you like, politics, principal, and president. it's hard to argue this is anything to do with a rational concern of safety joker, but she isn't being perceived as somebody who's infectious or going to people oppose a public health risk. this is a risk of perception of him being perceived as someone who will folk so cool land to back sentiment. and this with us as a president, critics is saying that people can be deported, have their pieces rejected, not based on any sort of rational, authentic reasoning based on the facts. one person, such as the immigration minister, can perceive somebody to be perceived by the public as somebody who will encourage politics, points of views, protest that it is simply being the undesirable in the country. so now i've been reading some of the online common treat, some of the online reaction to this so far. some people are saying the australian government turned this into a personal grudge against a drug here. also had he had,

he actually turned out to be the winner if he were to attend the australian open and actually when, as number one, he's, well, he will get $3100000.00 us dollars. so he's missing out on a huge potential pay day here. tell us more about the reactions to this which you will learn on the pay, the joke of it. she's his dreams of winning a 10th australian. the open 24th grand slam all shattered. and because of his potential 3 year entry banjo trailer, as a result of this, he'll be likely to play over the course of his career. he's of course, getting on. he's as chance of winning an australian open over the next few years are limited by this or the reaction though, we have to give credit has been very polarizing. we've had people saying both. okay, people have made sacrifice the australia has had one of the lowest co with death rates, partly because of the very strong rules that students looked on rules or policies rules, the rules should be no exceptions here. other people have said ok, it's really about following the rules. the have followed. the rules for entry is

filled in is forms is for audit evidence. so his medical exemption is code infection. is this really about that, or is it personal uncertainly? people on the street suddenly following the 1st fort decision was very passionate and very angry about the way he's been treated. the documents himself has said he's extremely disappointed with this decision, but he's going to respect the court. the fishing is going to comply. cooperate with the court suddenly, authorities, and onwards on home, one of coolest, back at home, joker bit, says we heard that from the serbian president has been viewed. not exactly, perhaps, as a more through thought, but certainly the perception has been that he has been mistreated. he's been targeting single doubt as a scape goat,

to make an example of that. been the sentiment in his home country of serbia. what it was i am revolted and angry because i did not expect they would treat the world's best tennis player, liked it. he did not deserve it, or if this is there, someone would know which is going through is the frustration of our entire nation. if they had said from the beginning that only vaccinated people can participate, it would be all right. but at one point they tell him one things and other times something else i do. so this is pure apologize. the issue here are the principles we live for, at least if you're repeating with freedom fraternity equality. well, you know, we've been, i think, i think really to something that we can quite buy. andy murray, who's been and said, really from the situation the wrong when this is bad, if everybody, this is a bad for joking rich, this is bad for tennis, for the viewers who paid good money to see one of the world's top sports of play and who of course, somebody resigning that tickets were seeing mass requests 3 funds based on what happened to you. and of course by for the australian government with the opposition

to saying that they've dilly dally that created confusion and control mostly with the rules of shit resign. really, there are no one is in this and jock, which of course heading home a very disappointed or even over, over the past week. and more than people have been commenting online about some of the, what they call hit pieces and character assassination piece is against stroke. if it's on line, some of the u. k. top lloyd's, for example, accusing him of believing in fairies and saying that he says that water has memories and a lot of people were saying, these are just character assassination piece. this is very interesting to see how all of this is turned out done. hawkins, thank you. thank you, but we did speak with john was charlie boyle. he says the decision is politically motivated. well i think it's a mixture of 6 and the elections and just the general trying to a nation and a country with all down. and it's very polarized because of a stranger in particular,

everyone should be treated the end of that. he came to play tennis on monday, so i didn't want him. he shouldn't go ahead. so you should have a much more clear about it. mr. just told them not to come all to get back to like everybody else, but it is the talking and changing. you can expect somebody to come across the world and that is, you know, you off and then spend a week in jail, which is the fact that he was concerned political. i'm a cheese on a lot of things and i think he's really screwed up because i think the way he's being treated is absolutely outrageous. after the 1st victory in the saga, talk of it was released from the detention center. we spoke to talk about your dad, an uncle who both agreed that he should compete in the australia open. i can say in my name, i personally mean isolated, you know, and this is all him, you know. and on the other side, as you know, he has the. busy corona in december, you know, and the, this is not a medical reason to get the law sign before

a judge that she has the full time. but all, and he has a real, real, really unhappy and we are so sorry. we like to australian people, but the southern government isn't ready. we're all good things to know. number one, in the, in the, in the dentist, one of the best force men ever, you know, this is, this is what he said is very said mika, than usual. you, samuel, i can't describe the feeling we never thought our son, the best tennis player in the world, would have had to go through this. especially in such a far away land, where he had already proven himself is the best 9 times. it's incredible that this has happened to him, but it has happened and it was in no way related to sport. it's all politics. he didn't deserve the visa refusal in the 1st place. we never had to deal with such politics. our politics is tennis. of course, we expect no fact to win his 21st grandson and his 10th australian open whistle

book of the kremlin is demanding a written response from the united states to his proposed security guarantees. with its spokespersons stressing that the current tensions obee ukraine do pose in extreme danger. the remarks came off to in depth talks between russia and nato. the 1st such chats in 2 years or with more details, now artes charlotte differences. how do you solve a problem like russia? nieces under false weight is for a shot to deescalate it is russia that has to make a start trice, the escalation and diplomacy, or confrontation and consequences. what was the view from the u. s. a. nato, after they held a series of meetings with their russian counterparts. on the one hand, they repeatedly said they were there to find solutions on the other. that solution was some have suggested one sided. russia has to make giant strides towards

reducing into military presence anyway, mean ukraine. if there is to be a d escalation of tensions for the russian delegation, the double speak was too much. we are fed up with loose dog, half promises, misinterpretation of what happened, that different forms of negotiations have behind closed doors. we do not trust the other side. so to see we need ironclad. waterproof bulletproof, the legally binding guarantees not assurances, not safeguards guarantees. russia was also accused of not being serious about finding solutions to ease the frictions as it continued to deny its planning to invade ukraine. moscow saddened for clear proposals before the meetings took

place, outlining what assurances it wanted from the west for its own security. that crucially included nato slamming the door on membership to post soviet countries like ukraine . moscow also hit out that ne twos, idea of security did not extend to non members, should in nato expansion doesn't solve any problems of security. it division lines that doesn't remove them. so these are the other things to say. nathan lodgement is aggressive, absolutely not true. and nathan launch month has been a cornerstone for the spread of democracy and freedom across europe. nato, regurgitated the line that it is not a threat to russia. moscow didn't agree. the u. s. and nato continued to conquer militarily the territories of the countries included in the alliance and place offensive weapon systems there. this directly poses a threat to the interests of the russian federation was

a final stab was made at finding common ground in vienna. at the organization for security and cooperation in europe, i supposedly neutral ground where unfortunately the language from country representatives was anything but it seems rather risk of war in the always sea area is now greater than ever before. in the last 30 years, the europeans also went down the smear campaign route, following a massive cyber attack and government sites in ukraine. the ease top diplomat hinting one can figure out who is behind this strike. the hackers have not yet been identified. and while the west continues to state it is spread democracy in port security to countries, russia's foreign minister disagrees to west. when to far less be frank in violation of all international obligations and common sense they chose to

escalate this situation. well, you see the west condemns violent actions against civilians. they condemn human rights violations, but when bloody cause a carried out by those who swear their allegiance to the west, the west embraces them. this is what happened with the ukrainian qu. many people died there, including the hands of provocateurs and his crew was approved by the united states and the europeans just accepted that as fact. and no one is going to investigate the my down atrocities a mammoth week of talks has ended with well, a lot of hot air, no concrete proposals to move things forward. the only thing that they saw eye to eye on really was just how far apart they are. and that if talks fail, the consequences could be catastrophic jollity, blue sky, r t, and sit. and we discussed the possibility of notice further expansion into former soviet states with a panel of guests ukraine and even ga will. they would not be allowed to

become a full fledged member of nato because they have internal divisions within their own countries. and that is stipulated in the atlantic alliance of nato itself. so until those con, frozen conflicts are resolved. and they cannot be admitted as a member. but you have the united states and nato moving nato forces up to up to the black sea area, just opposite and wanting to go into ukraine and actually do military maneuvers with, with ukraine. and as well as georgia and, and provide a so called defensive weapons, which easily could become offensive weapons. and this is, this is what moscow sees as a threat. it would be crazy for nato to get it ukraine on board. it's a failed state. it is a fatty full time and dangerous democracy in the making as the american say. and

it could turn into real war if ever ukraine joins later. not because russia would do anything but simply because the whole has in here would do something stupid to be alliance should be responsible and not take anybody. and within the alliance, believe me, several countries and not the small ones don't want ukraine in. of course, there is an image that needs to be projected of humanity, but it is not the case. and people realized in europe that it is very dangerous to have ukraine. and if only because of some of the whole hats in the west of the country that hey russia and i would do anything to stop the war. so a bit of advice for british household struggling to heat their homes this winter major energy provider ovo has told customers to quote, cuddle your pet undo star, jump to stay warm bills are expected to double this year. and incomes are expected

to face a nasty pinch. is artes it showed you? it was actually on the device and now it's got so many customers angry. are you weighing up, eating or heating? is still the predictor to sort of 2000 pounds a year. will fret no more as one of britain's biggest energy suppliers has come up with no one idea. the 10 ways to save on heating cost, not only laira, but get the hot rate going with some star jobs. and if that doesn't work, how about a cozen is a cutter with a cat? okay, i don't have a cat, but i do have this guy. another central suggestion is to leave the oven door open after cooking, the capital of your kids love and eat a hearty bowl of porridge. and of course, make sure you have a decent pair of socks or slippers. apparently, all these are simple cost effective ways to keep warm this winter, but the company can't be serious, can it? i think they've completely lost the floor on that one. i have to say,

don't close with. we're not stupid. i are we on each of the trying notes that i eating on? we literally freeze in our, in house because we're trying to get the cost down. you just think my, what else was i today? if that's real advice and you know i'd be slightly and salary by are either hopefully by now why with the event i need to stop suddenly my energy done up for an extra jumper on seminar. so yeah, i want to be in solid bio for any other company, but that doesn't say i wouldn't listen. so i would say, for example, that would certainly the advice and to customers comes as many households are extremely worried about rising energy costs. and despite the company apologizing for the l, judge, suggestions, politicians have criticize the coal haunted approach. it is lawful and insulting. but then with this government's lack of an energy strategy, you almost expected those comments will be right by people who have to choose

between eating and heating it's. that's the state of the country. we're now and i find it quite depressing. being told to put on a instead of turning on your heating, if you can't afford it, at a time of such difficulty for so many families is plainly offensive. 2022 has already been given the total year of the squeeze of the one since a 2008 financial crash this year. wages will barely quote one of the same time bill jumped by 50 percent around 2000 pounds when britain's new energy price cap is 2nd april. this means in real time, people actually get a pay cut. and the situation is for the cost of living catastrophe. i think the hosting's an abomination, we had the way to use that you could possibly have in business like whole support from the government. so we've been forced to close our doors. we're only, we're trying to close our way back, so we're hope, hotel and everything else. we use quite

a lot of electricity and it's hard to find. i am terrified of the impact of businesses in the country. not just me. when i mean small business is struggling, i just have to stop. we pay the bounce back later, the government and supposedly gave us, but we've got to pay them back to order something. and i'm not going to do that. it's time to money and we were in debt anyway from the lock that i now the energy cost of solar and both electricity and gas, so sorry, i don't know how we supposed to pay them because we have no income. and she is not alone. in fact, one in 3 people, a worry that bills will become totally on affordable this year. and i'm thinking the government to, for the bill. labor also piling on the pressure for the government to ditch tax hikes and scrap v a t on feel all together consent to ministers council,

the 0 carbon homes program. they bond on show when development, they launch the eco selection program, the tornado. within one year, they were, you see, you case gas storage capacity. i don't one particularly silly moment. the current foreign secretary claims solar panels were risk to domestic food production. all of these decisions have made this country more dependent on volatile wholesale energy prices than we otherwise would have been right now. we know this means as extremely situate, extremely difficult situation to british household, but also risks making archways. the british industry on competitive talk, a combination of spiking prices, tax hikes looming energy, big bills on the government's a power reluctance to address these issues. may actually see ridiculous ideas like cuddling pats. how people overcome this on the upcoming winter has become a reality shot. edwards dusty artie london gonna soaring energy bills are not the only issue. the u. k. government is facing these

days a families of those who died during the height of the you case 1st cove. it looked down, have slammed an apology from prime minister boris johnson as an insult. the soft that he admitted in parliament that despite severe restrictions and old gatherings back then, he attended a boozy bash, downing street, the opposition and even senior tories have since been pining pressure on their prime minister with some of them calling for him to stand on trains to his ear and he said to me that he was, i don't think he can continue as lead to the concert parking claim minister, asking people to follow the rules again until his government reached it. when i went into that garden, just after 6 on the 28th of may, 2020, i believed implicitly that this was a work event. la 2020 was a bit of a tough month for britain that must much of the country was ultimately paralyzed by the 1st national lockdown, or indoor meetings between households was strictly prohibited. and a maximum of 2 people could meet outside in a public place. we spoke to

a man who struggled to arrange his own father's funeral amid all those restrictions . this is about rules and about who the host applies to. this become abundantly clear that the prime minister thinks that they apply to him at the same time, but i was at my father's funeral. he was taking part in a, bring your own views, part number 10 downing street. at my dad's funeral, we were allowed to invite up to 5 people at the geno. say that meant it was just myself and my siblings could attend. there is no physical contract, so we wouldn't want to hug each other. even the vicar holding the fireman, he wasn't allowed to shake hands or anything like that. and as soon as the ceremony was over, we all had to go back, came again, they were author issuing fines for people meeting outside people will be fined money for meeting up people being harassed by the police. if they hung around and parks that too long, and the ultimate question, half of the prime minister is,

why does he believe that the rules that he helps create that he made? didn't apply to him? johnson's stated, excuse hotspot, a wave of means online. even major companies, i ryan, i have been posting mocking images that was not the 1st party gave scandal involving johnson at the end of last year pictures most online, allegedly showing him taking part in several social events at downing street during the 2020 lockdown and calls for the prime minister to resign have certainly been on the rise is so ridiculous that is actually offensive to the press. you see now go to do the decent thing and reside how stupid does the prime minister think the british people are right now. he's making fools of every single mp, said him earlier, bullet prime minister, finally, do the decent thing. i'm resign oral historian. peace be forced to show him the

door issue for once kind of prime us or do the honorable thing and resign 17, a portion of the punch got one thing to play multiple church that don't and eventually you can do, you know, as go resign, play manager the story because he's being cool, there any most resides in my judgement and all the evidence that's concerned in the face for the last few months. now, i think it's abundantly clear that bars johnson doesn't have an ounce of self decency in him. leading by example, as a really key element of thought leadership that is clear and not only this bar strong, some not have thought more leadership at the moment, but there's no pathway for him to get back. and that's why, for as long as he remains prime minister, i think we're going to stay in a state of limbo in this country and ultimately is pending more people at risk. when you say this, where it's outlined that the government has done everything they could to save

lives, the so little weights, these words that they can just hang. and yeah, the messaging throughout has been terrible. the following of that only scientific voices has been at best patchy, and at worst they've gone against scientific advice. and the result has been nearly about a $175000.00 dust now, which is deep upsetting. and wrapping up the weekly with our story right there. hey, thanks for joining us here on the sunday. the sunday program that of the weekly with the highlights of the week. the top headlines off today keeping very close chops right now on joker bitch. that's the top story. returning of the top of the hour, hope to see use ah with

mm. welcome to was a for sure, almost a decade in confinement. julianna's sanchez is a shadow of them and used to be fighting against extradition. request of the united states has taking a toll on his physical and mental health, while also compromising with ability to continue its operation. with only this ruling by british or to hampton over to washington, what's in store? one of the world's most recognized whistleblowers. to discuss that, i'm now joined by reg barnes. had an astronomy lawyer and an advisor to doing the sanchez australian campaign. mr. barnes is great to talk to you. thank you very

much for your time. my pleasure. now let me start from afar. a few weeks ago, the european parliament awarded its supper of price and the human rights price to the russian. the position after this, seen the bombing, we're serving time in prison on a parole violation charges in what many in the was believed to be politically motivated than that. and his daughter doughty out while accepting the prize on his behalf raised the following. let me read it for you. why is it so hard to free from connectivity? those who are fighting for human rights? why are they still thrown in jail? not only all over the world, but in european, geographically european countries in the 21st century. do you think this question is relevant to mr. sanders? case against any doubt that it's relevant to the assange coast. this has been a political prosecution from.
