a major british energy company feels the heat for its advice while fuel costs. i think i've completely lost the cloth on that. well, i have to say, why don't she paid me crazy now or now because we're trying to get the call down with the top stories from the past 7 days and right up to the moment developments as well. this is the weekly an rti unwelcome novak joke of a child's been deported from australia. the tennis world number one was forced to leave after a court upheld the decision to revoke his visa over vaccine issues. he will not miss out on participating in the australian open the tennis association of the stars home country of serbia pull no punches than its reaction to the decision. the tennis association of serbia expresses its great disappointment with this
2:02 pm
decision of the australian court. this time politics has won over sport, the best tennis player in the world, novak jock of ich validly fulfilled all the prescribed requirements and rules of the organizes of the australian open in the host country for participation in the tournament, which was confirmed by the decision of the court of the same country. well, joining me now in the studio to talk more on this, his ortiz, daniel hawkins, done. good to see you. serbian sporting, and indeed, top political officials, certainly making their feelings felt about the deportation. yeah, absolutely. and the impression that this is mainly a political decision, and because increasing is coming from many quarters around the world that we need from of course, not just which faith to court cases in australia. that 1st quote case was based on the technicalities of his visa office medical exemption. heidi submitted his documents, his evidence of his medic looks at reception in a timely unappropriate matter. and the case was won by his legal team, a judge,
2:03 pm
ruled in his favor. this court case was based on something very different by the powers that immigration minister attic for you to deport him from the country. and that was based on the perception that he could be, quote, an icon for the anti about some movement, enough pose a risk, some sort of health risk for australia and even perhaps insight civil unrest. whitestone was of course that used like you know, straight and officials that we heard, of course, from leo street prime minister scott morrison, who said on multiple occasions that this is a defense of the country's borders. that the reason was trailer had relatively few pover desk relatively few cases was because the country had defended their borders so strongly. that was also echoed by immigration minister, alex ford, who said he welcome this decision of defending australia, borderline of keeping people safe. the association of tenants professionals has not so outright criticize this decision. they've not outright some been critical all of
2:04 pm
the decision, but they've expressed that regret at what's up and saying it's not good for the image of tenants. as a sport, it's not good without the least of participated, and things would have been better how they turned out differently. so being leaders, they will be until provincials have certainly not meant that word and stating this decision was political. this was put in place to make an example of noble joke, which it was very easy for us rental for it is to say from the very beginning that okay, only vaccinated on inoculated people could enter australian territory. but it didn't say so. everything completely different story including this medical exemptions i think was really and what's right for it is cumulative themselves was this kind of procedures pursuing against your courage mission the years. i think the decision is scandalous. i'm disappointed and i think it showed how the rule of
2:05 pm
law functions in some other countries, that is how the rule of law does not function. it is incredible to me how we have to totally oppose court decisions within just a few days. so there have been 11 days of physical and psychological harassment. i think many will take away 3 aspects from this court decision lives, politics, perception and precedent. because ultimately this decision has been taken by the immigration minutes, the based on his perception, but noble joker, which is perceived by others as an anti backs icon, whatever that may mean, and this could have consequences beyond. so it's beyond cobra, restrictions beyond why the presence of people should be banned and the 4th and based on perception below the bottom line though, for the player himself down, is that in years to come, the record books are going to simply show the joke of which did not win his florida row, he did not win his 21st grand slam and for whatever reason valid or otherwise it's
2:06 pm
you've been going through a stealing officials have cost him the chance to make history. yeah, absolutely. and the certainly the reaction has been coming in throughout the day and will continue to do so. joker bitch himself has of course left australia to people tracking his flights on flight radar as it left trailer to go home joker. but to say he's actually disappointed. he will respect the decision, he will call right with authorities. but really we have seen out pouring of support for the sub, the incentive play. we sold us that the images of people in the streets supporting him and protesting against that sufficient to keep them in detention for days while his case was resolved. and indeed, a host of tennis players around the world have also expressed their indignation at the worst or best at least disappointment that things i've worked out the way they have the very sad day in history of tennis. it's sad when politics beat come, incense the laws, one for all,
2:07 pm
but interpretations are different for all shameful to target one because of his believes, which are different from others. do you know when an icon of free choice isn't welcome in a western country? things have gone back. it crazy. there was a political agenda at play here with the elections coming up, which couldn't be more obvious. this is not his fault. he did not force his way into the country and did not make his own rules. he was ready to stay home with venice association of serbia. just another organisation that's really questioned the message, australia is sending in the way it treats athletes ahead. of course, hosting the olympic games in bruce, but in 20 ability to saying when serbia host sporting events, they will treat to athletes and interact with abilene. resolved any questions about differ why and also saying that the impartiality, the sacred, limbic rule of impartiality, had not been a private joker, which in this case all the former tenant stars, have gone even further. one form a professional tennis player during paolo's with the bombing of yugoslavia back in
2:08 pm
the late ninety's. and what has happened today in a fiery twitter message, bombs were thrown by world powers at civilian facilities in our city. and our youngest fellow citizens and friends were killed. now the world's powerful are putting pressure on you to give up because in other ways, in a fair and sporty way, no one can defeat you. whatever you view and what's happened, the joke of it, this is a most of issue as we can see from money. it's going to continue to draw motions under bite as it goes on. because as we said this has why the ramifications and just joke of it's just coded just tennis to do with impartiality, legality. the way you athletes are treated as people who bear responsibility for public opinion. so certainly the motive issue and one that will continue to cover obviously in the coming days. do you remember those days when the sport used to just be about sports has longer, longer new to daniel hawkins. thank you very much. well, ellis cashmore,
2:09 pm
author of the book making sense of sports believes the sterling government has made brokovich a martyr by deporting this is manifestly a political decision as the world knows scott morrison has a federal actions looming in about 4 months time. and he's been rewarded. this morning, with a response from the australian public, which seems to endorse the decision of yesterday and government to deport jocko ridge where don't think that the state and government has missed that it said before, alex hope, immigration minister said, i don't want to make a more to out of our a hero who joked edge by allowing him to play. but. busy by deporting him by excluding him from the, the tutor and he's done exactly that because an axe is around the world. now we'll be looking at junk of edge and saying this guy's being persecuted for no other reason than the fact that he is exercising. individual liberty is choice not to be
2:10 pm
vaccinated, and of course he will become a martyr. the kremlin is insisting on a concrete response from the u. s. to its proposed security guarantees, washington se, that'll give it in writing next week. that follows in depth talks between moscow and nato, russia. whoever said those negotiations highlighted, continuing differences with ukraine being the main something block are to charlotte dupon, sky house. the story. how do you solve a problem? like russia? easiest 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 that they were there to find solutions on the other. that
2:11 pm
solution was some have suggested one sided. russia has to make giant strides towards reducing into military presence. anyway, me, 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 sites, so to see we need iron clad 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 say these are put for clear proposals before the meetings
2:12 pm
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 meters idea of security did not extend to non members. indian nato expansion doesn't solve any problems of security . it moves division lines, but 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
2:13 pm
a threat to the interests of the russian federation. a final stab was made at finding common ground in vienna at the organization for security and cooperation in europe, a supposedly neutral ground where and fortunately, the language from country representatives was anything but it seems that the 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 eas top diplomat tinting one can figure out who is behind the strike. the hackers have not yet been identified, and while the west continues to state it is spread democracy in put security to countries, rushes foreign minister disagrees. the west went too far. let's be frank
2:14 pm
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 codes are 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 at 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 it talks fail. the consequences could be catastrophic jollity than sky r. t amsterdam. russia under u. s. remain on different tracks. that's the conclusion of the kremlin spokesperson
2:15 pm
following security talks between the countries this week, talking to u. s. media. he also rejected the latest accusations still being voice in washington that moscow's preparing a full flag operation in order to invade ukraine. we saw this playbook in 2014 i, they are preparing this playbook again and the, and we will have the administration will have further details on what we see as this potential laying of a pretext to share with the press over the course of the next 24 hours mr. sullivan promised to publish the proof of these accusations within 24 hours was still waiting for that proof. we're living in a world of fake accusations, fight news, and in the world of lies until it's proven somehow, will continue to presume it is fake news. all independent journalists, martin summers believes that the money being placed on russia are unrealistic on all one way bottles see that was much the,
2:16 pm
the notion side can do to de escalate. they've got, they're going to have a military force inside their own borders on unless they're going to completely disarm. what else can they do? it's like asking the us army to defend itself and damage spaces all over the world . obviously, ukraine becomes a nature will provoke the russian side. but i have to ask whether many people in western europe in particular, would like to get into a situation where they could be dragged into a war over the crane. western pilots should be st. leadership in crane is not going to, we're not going to fight. you need to negotiate, which is always been the position for many years. what's really worrying is the missiles in poland and romania, and this is a global security issue. some of the rush i spent the russians to be written, make them maneuver to show that they can do exactly the same as nature is doing
2:17 pm
a man who took 4 people hostage out as synagogue in the u. s. state of texas on saturday has been identified by the f b i as a 44 year old british citizen, the u. k. foreign minister condemned the incident and said the country studs with america the f. b i in dallas said investigations were continuing. but it's not believed any other individuals were involved. all of the hostages were freed and left on harmed. the incident ended with the death of the suspect when police storm the synagogue following us and our son, the president, described the hostage taking an active terror. a british energy provider found itself feeling the heat this week over its advice to customers and how to stay warm. it told people to cut all their pets onto star jumps. it was part of a response to energy bills that are predicted to double this year. are you weighing
2:18 pm
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 jumps. and if that doesn't work, how about a cosy little 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 are near today trying notes that i eating on. we literally freeze in our,
2:19 pm
in house because we're trying to get the cost down. you just think my, what else was today if that's real advice and you know, i'd be slightly and salary by are either hopefully by now you why with the event that 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 suit me. the advice sent 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 criticized 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. if that's the state of the country we are 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,
2:20 pm
at the 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. 7 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 whole thing's an abomination. we had the way to use that you could possibly have in business local 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 has to fi and i am terrified of the impact
2:21 pm
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 government and suppose that they gave us, but we've got to pay them back to all of a sudden 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 they energy cost of solar and both electricity and gas t. 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 are worried that bills will become totally on affordable this year . and i'm thinking the government to the bill. they are 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,
2:22 pm
you case gas storage capacity. i don't want particularly silly moment the current foreign secretary claim solar panels were risk to domestic food production. now 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 an 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 pat. how people overcome this on the upcoming winter has become a reality shot. edwards dashti, artie london, families of those who died during the you case 1st, kobe locked on of slammed an apology from boris johnson as an insult. dots after the prime minister admitted he attended
2:23 pm
a boozy dawning straight bust during the national locked dance. the opposition and even some senior tories have been piling pressure and the p. m. calling on him to resign train service here. and he said to the that he was, i don't think he can continue as lead to the concert to park in plain minister, asking people to follow the rules again until his government. i deleted it when i went into that god and just after 6 on the 20th of may, 2020, i believed implicitly that this was a woke event. on may 2020 was a tough month for britain much all the country was paralyzed by the 1st national lock dines with endure meetings between high sol strictly prohibited that we spoke to a man who struggled to arrange his father's funeral. amid the restrictions a common difficulty during those times, this is about rules and about who the host applies to. this become abundantly clear that the prime minister thinks that they don't apply to him at the same time,
2:24 pm
but i was at my father's funeral. he was taking part in a, bring your own views, part number 10 downing street. my dad's team will be allowed to invite up to 5 people at the geno. say that meant it was just myself and my siblings can attend. there is no physical contract. so we wouldn't want to hug each other. even the vicar holding the ceremony 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 the parks for 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? or johnson state excuse sparked a wave of mean on. busy life and even major companies like the airline reiner been posting mocking images. and it is not the 1st party gate scandal involving johnson
2:25 pm
over at the end of last year, a pictures emerged on line, allegedly showing him taking part in several social events at dunning street during the 2020 lockdown men in parliament. thing there is now only one course of action. it is so ridiculous that is actually offensive to the press. you see now going to do the decent thing and resign. how stupid does the prime minister think the british people are right now? he's making fools of every single mp. oops, it him earlier. well, the prime minister finally do the decent thing. i'm resigned or historian peace be forced to show him the door. so for once kind of primers for do the honorable thing and resign 17, a portion of the punch got one thing to play, multiple shoots that, and eventually you can do, you know, as go resign,
2:26 pm
play manager. he story. because he's being cool, there any most resolve in my judgement and all the evidence that since the earnest 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. and him, leading by example, is a really key element of thought leadership and his claire. and not only does bars, johnson not have moral 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 putting 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 the ad messaging throughout has been terrible. the following of their own scientific voices has been at best patchy,
2:27 pm
and at worst they've gone against scientific advice. and the result has been nearly a $175000.00 deaths now, which is deeply upsetting after years of stress. and what could 2020 to have in store for julian sounds, worlds apart dells into that's been moments they close. mm hm. i look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings except where such order that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence at the point. obviously is too great trust, rather than fear. i would like to take on various jobs with artificial intelligence . real, somebody with a
2:28 pm
robot must protect its own existence with what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on, often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk with with
2:29 pm
. mm and welcome to was. we're just almost a decade in confinement. julianna's sanchez is a shadow of the men who used to be fighting against extradition request a toll on his physical and mental health. well also compromising. we can ability to continue its operations with only this ruling by british court to hand him over to washington. what's in store one of the world's most recognized whistleblowers. to discuss that and now joined by a lawyer and an adviser to doing this on just trailing campaign. mr. barns 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 ordered it suffer a price of the human rights christ to the russian. the position after this,
2:30 pm
the scene of only serving time in prison are parole violation charges in what many in the was believed to be politically motivated than that. and his daughter doughty and while accepting the prize on his behalf raised the following question. let me read it for you. why is it so hard to free from community those who are fighting for human rights? why and they still are own 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 assigned case. this has been a prosecution from day one. so somebody was reminding me recently that the former started prime minister john out are certainly not a conservative sit back in 2000. so it was struggling to see what crime ashanti, committed. so even on the rock politics and so much more,
