ah ah er headline stories this hour, the world can richest people double their wealth, while millions, diet, co bit dumbing report from the from char etc, face to pandemic, has increased inequality across the globe. and they make, has really expose been a quality over the last 2 years. it's been really exponentially coordinator. and who's the victim? a judge say that a 17 year old boy who sexually assaulted a girl and then transition to a female should not be sent to jail. for fear of being victimized critic say, the case is making a mockery of america's criminal justice system with another u. k. politician appears to break coven restrictions this time. pictures of britons

opposition leader have emerged showing him drinking with colleagues while the country was in a public patience is wearing thin or bunch of people. they do what they like. and then we all know there's one for the government, one room for the rest of it. with from moscow to the world, this is our t pleasure that help you with us today. my name's, you know, the, the wealth of the world's richest people has doubled since the pandemic began, while the per have suffered increased death rates and poverty due to a lack of treatment and faxing. those are the findings of a report by oxfam called inequality kills the charity claims policy. choices by governments are stewed in favor overwhelmingly to the rich to well said the wells at 10 the richest man has doubled. since the pandemic began the incomes of 99

percent of humanity, a worse off because of coven 19. this is not by chance, but choice. economic violence is perpetrated when structural policy choices are made for the richest and most powerful people. this causes direct harm to us, all the fan they make has really exposed inequalities and fuel them. so oxide has been tracking billionaire wealth for some time. and of course the forbes list shows that it has been growing over the last 40 years. but over the last 2 years, it's been really exponential, so we call it a billionaire bonanza. and at the other end of the spectrum, of course, for 99 percent of humanity, it's been a very, very difficult time. and most people are worse off as a result of the pandemic. of course, more than a 160000000 people have fallen into poverty during this time and is in a moment when you can see the difference is really showing very, very starkly, can't cause success. when there is such disparity, that at one end of the spectrum,

you have people who have more wealth than they can spend in several lifetimes. and at the other, we have people struggling to pay their next health bill or, or not knowing where their next meal is. coming from having such a level of, of disparity affects everyone, even the wealthiest because you know, and it's a sign of an unhealthy state of affairs, of an unhealthy society that needs addressing well, some of the figures, enough in a quality kills report really staggering, according to walks from the pandemic i pushed over a 160000000 people into poverty and estimate it's 17000000 the allege of died from crone of ours, and around 6000000 more. i've also lost their lives to, to a lack of health care in for countries. meanwhile, the top 10 people on forbes rich lists such as elan mosque and bill gates of 6 times more money than the purse 3000000000 people combined. but while they doubled,

our wealthy income said 99 percent of the world's population worsened. since the pandemic began, a new billionaire has been created every 26 hours. the mobs tells us oxford believes a key driver for inequality is vaccine supply. one of those key drivers for inequality has been a vaccine access to vaccines. so the difference between rich and poor countries has grown the inequality. so and the forest countries in africa and generally only 10 percent of the population has had his 1st course of vaccination america. and it's, it's economic power and several other countries in the world can help reverse that from unlocking that and from the calculations that, that we have made. it would be possible, for example, to vaccinate the whole world to achieve and health care for all the universal health care and their ways. and, and others have campaigned for lifting those intellectual property rights. that in

fact, mean that pharmaceutical have a monopoly over over the vaccines that are not readily available or produced as, as, as, as they could all over the world go ahead for you. that's our, the standoff surrounding british m. p. 's, partying during the country's course cobra. locked, know drugs in the opposition. he was also pictured drinking with colleagues up the time. we look at how the public's patience is wearing thin. okay. know the story, getting a lot of reaction today. a judge in the us say that a 17 year old boy who sexually assaulted a girl and then transition to a female should not be sent to an adult jail for fear of being victimized. the decision by the los angeles district attorney has attracted a lot of criticism, skill mope, and takes auster. so how does

a criminal avoid prison time for assaulting a 10 year old girl in a women's bathroom? apparently, if the criminal was 17 and not a legal adult at the time they committed the crime and they then changed their gender. they can get off with a mere sentence of home confinement and not a prison term, as well as words of sympathy from the district attorney. the district attorney express concern that tubs itself would be victimized if placed in an adult facility as a transgender woman, and noted a probation reports actually recommended tubs be sentenced to home confinement. james tubbs allegedly assaulted a 10 year old girl and a women's bathroom in 2014. the police were able to track and 2019 was dna evidence when he was once again arrested on suspicion of battery. now the cases sparking outrage across the country tops will be offered therapeutic interventions under the auspices of her story of justice and possibly granted only probation or parole. where is the justice for her young victim?

in her family, it's madness. it makes a mockery of a criminal justice system. the d i is trying to distance himself from the result and late blame on the judge when in fact, it's only happened because of his policy against transferring juvenile cases to other colt. this is not somebody who should appear in the juvenile system. this clearly shows you the dangerous aspect of the blanket policies of george gaskin. the l. a. county district attorney has vowed to stop prosecuting children as adults, many liberals as well as conservatives, have taken issue with his policies. beverly hills city council members have led the charge for him to be recalled amid a string of robberies in this wealthy community. they blame him for eliminating bail and dropping charges. in many cases. i think we're opening a very, very dangerous can of worms when we allow on the gender or the sexual orientation of a person to basically allow them to escape crop were punishment to say that because they are, you know, they were a minor,

at the time of the crime that they shouldn't go to an adult facility. these type of decisions are very dangerous and they, they truly throw justice out the window in the lapse in the face of the american people. this is a modern day travers see to to be a 10 year old girl in the bathroom. an attack by a complete stranger will cause fear in her for probably years in her ability to feel safe and comfortable in just normal surroundings. and so for her to have to carry that while teaching that memory and then to also know that tubs is not going to be properly placed in jail and hale. and, you know, for 2 years as recommended, it's really a traverse speech. know that this person gets to walk away with committing the crime and, and walk away escaping proper punishment. there's no question that u. s. policies, mass incarceration have been out of control over the last several decades. the u. s

. a has the highest prison population in the world. communities have been devastated. however, the rising crime in cities across the united states, amid a wave of new liberal policies from local prosecutors, as people wondering about the dangers of the opposite extreme. caleb martin are to new york, after a series of public rows hurry, pulse her or 3rd, j. k. rowling has spoken about the abuse she received from supporters of the transgender community. however, police in scotland habit and they will not investigate a tweet made by an activists that revealed rulings home address. at the time of the post, the writer wrote this response to the trans campaigners they should have reflected on the fact that i have not received. so many death threats. i could paper the house with them and haven't stopped speaking out. yeah, the post included trans activist standing by her house holding signs with slogans such as trans liberation. now though deleted,

it was immediately re posted with her home information available for everybody to see rolling, say she's been targeted for quote, speaking up for women's sex based rights, people were quick to point out the upon double standards in the police's decision. i wonder why no actions being taken. i'd assume it's because for kyra, the food chain are trans supportive and don't upset the apple cart. the fact her address or anyone's just be posted on line without knowledge or consent is wrong regardless of why it's a violation of safety. dock thing is illegal and it doesn't matter if you delete the content a few hours later makes you wonder what the police are playing it cherry picking what is lawful depending on who is complaining. she used to pander to those people, even changing the sexuality of characters, to please them. she played woking mental gymnastics and slipped up, and then the mob turned on her. it is quite surprising. they're not taking any kind of action. although you see this is very much a gray area where illegality is difficult to prove.

and in this particular case, i believe the, the police were reviewed the circumstances clearly with the lawyers and decided that there wasn't any legality that we have now a situation in the u. k. and other countries where people don't believe the others have a right to have a view. and this is that you know this well, it could well end up in some form of prosecution or someone should cause harassment acts. and i believe that she has said that she had also had problems since then. so individuals committed harassment afterwards may well end up being guilty of crimes . will a backlash against rolling began in 2020, after she questioned a headline about people who men straight by claiming the meaning of the word woman had been lost. some twitter users took that to mean she was saying transgender men and women should have fewer rights. political commentator under walker says,

you can't police are only willing to go after crime when it suits them. any police force that equality can do more or less investigation. i refer you back to the case of the scottish comedian, but taught his dog or his wife's dog how to do hitler salutes in order to prevent of a joke. probably scotland not only prosecutor, but sort a custodial sentence and he went to prison speech. they are perfectly willing to put it in the resources when it suits them, but they're not willing to put in the resources when it doesn't suit that police. scotland will be perfectly happy with j. k. rowling being intimidated, perfectly happy without being harassed and will take actually no action to defend time because they don't agree with that. politically. my comment is next. j. k. rowling is going to say she can afford security. what about the rest of richard to have these highly political police force is highly political. police leaders,

police under political control, what politician, fellow, who to prosecute when that is a danger not to j. k. rowling, cuz she's rich and powerful to ordinary people. like, you know, make ok, let's keep attention on the u. k. were party gate that scandal is gaining momentum for a change though it's not the prime minister bar is johnson, but the british opposition leader who is the center of attention footage as emerge, showing the labor party leader cure stormer drinking beer with stuff during the 2021 spring locked on, and although he insists he did nothing wrong on like the prime minister, he's refusing to apologize just days before the election. we were very busy working in the office and we stopped for something to eat. and that we carried on working no party, no breach of the rules, and absolutely no comparison with the prime minister and no apology. it all comes amid a high profile scandal involving a u. k. p. m,

who was pictured partying during the country's 1st locked on, the story is still making headlines with johnston's popularity plummeting to an all time low. now, when it all unfolded, mister stormer himself ridiculed the prime minister for the way he justified the bash says to friends that he didn't realize he was, it's a party. ha! it is so ridiculous that he is actually offensive to the prayer with the whole country was locked down. he was posting boozy part is in town, extra se now going to take a decent thing and reside now with a raft of whole lot of other problems to tackle that are not being tackled. that's what people in london are saying, they're losing their patience with the entire psych, the whole bunch of people. they do what they like, and then we are lost. no,

you can't do this. all the agency family helped me with my friends when april april she died in april 20 i wasn't even able to see her live in the family nissan. this one will, for the government one will for the rest of what should happen is either johnson is farms or the finds, a scrap and everybody who was side to get their money back. i think. but he was not appropriate at all to spectrum. and then to his as well. and then we vote care of what basically society as a war had to go. what's a smell? it's the stench of hypocrisy. obviously he wasn't doing what a lot subarus staff seemed to be enduring avenue, right? booze up in garden. but he was inside the house, he was drinking beer and his excuse that they were having a chinese and therefore is a work meal is frankly ludicrous. these politicians are all the same. they make the

rules, and they want us to act in a certain way. but they don't want the rules to apply to them, but there are many other things. now we need to move on. things like assuring inflation that the job losses that are going to be around the corner. let's talk about the migrant problem as well at dover. let's talk about law and order they, they're the things that the british public now want boris to get on top of a right wing presidential candidate in france has been fined 10000 euro after a court found him guilty of hate. speech or exam were, has rejected the ruling calling it a cracked on and free speech and politically motivated reporting from paris. here is charlotte davinsky. we once an end to this system which every day tightens the noose on the freedom of expression and democratic debate. this system manufactures the crime of opinion on an industrial scale. there is an urgent need to drive

ideology out of the courts. justice must become justice again. well that certainly how eric seymour would see this. he is the bad boy of french politics, particularly as we head into that presidential election in just a few months. he's now been slapped down once again. so what did he say that was at so exclusive hearing france? well, when he was speaking on that show back in september of 2020, he was talking about unaccompanied miners. so children who come here illegally and many of which are living on the streets in france, particularly here in paris. and he described them as being thieves as killers and as rapists. now those comments were seized on by number of organizations who made a complaint. and of course, it's gone all the way through the courts. eric's in war has been reacting to that decision by the court to find him 10000 euro saying that what this is, his condemnation of free spirit at by a judicial system which he is described as being invaded by idealogues ability.

once again, i am the object and the victim of political justice. i'm condemned for incitement for complicity in the incident. but the complexity of the formula used is too much to understand. i know that these immigrants like unaccompanied children and not a race in missouri. well, eric samouce also says he stands by his comments and he is due to appeal that fine at by the court. and then he went on to say that from his perspective, that the majority of saying mobile phone facts, it took place here in font or being carried out by these unaccompanied miners. he says he's also got a really busy legal agenda at the moment. and he said, that's because they, when he means they, he means the ruling elite are trying to demonize him to try and silence him. however, there was other reaction to that decision by the court on monday. and this came from the lawyer who represented the 30 or so organizations that originate filed

a complaint against what he said to it. if you more, it's definitely an important decision because we want him to understand that we want acceptor, we need him to understand that there are human rights defenders. there are ant arissa, so we need him to know that we will stand up against a political project aimed at destroying the legacy of the french revolution and the enlightenment nearer. now, it's not the 1st time that sir moore has been convicted of hate speech. in fact, he's been convicted of this twice before, and there have been around 16 investigations into incendiary remarks that he has made particular topic such as immigration and on islam. he has plenty to say about both of those subjects. now whether you agree or disagree with the most views, what is absolutely clear, cannot be disputed, is the fact that when he discusses topics, it is something that becomes an explosive debate here in france and people pay attention. and as a result of that, when he announced his candidacy for the presidential election just a few months ago, he surged in the polls automatically. and what his voice is done,

whether you like the contribution or not it's pushed the debate towards right wing agendas. and some would say that that his even pushed present. mack, on his traditionally like to be part of the center debate to the right with policies that he's made and policies he will be campaigning on in this election. so this is an election that is going to be for pretty much exclusively on right wing issues, and that is partly due to voices like eric's and more at no doubt, his support has dipped since he 1st came on to the waves and said, i want to be the president, but the reality is he's shaking up the political debate here in france, and he is certainly a voice that we will hear a lot of in the next few months. ahead of the 2022 us mid term elections. the democrats are facing many challenges, not least that some 7 percent of americans who were loyal to the party last year.

and i was swinging to the republicans. that is, despite president biden, insisting that with him in charge, things are actually getting better murder because he only leading economy of world war household incomes and the economy as a whole are stronger than they were before the pandemic packages are moving. gifts are being delivered, shelves are not empty. clearly the current strategies failing. and we need a major course correction. it seems like the democrats can't get out of their own way. the democrats have got to do a better job of being clear on what they're trying to do. and as you can see, that's democrats saying that another poll shows that 70 percent of americans think things are only getting worse. on half of respondents feel disappointed with jo biden's presidency. well, we got reaction bite biden's policies from people in the streets of los angeles. i never had

a party is doing what it is that the democratic actually believe in my house there with our economy in the ground right now. they're doing everything that you possibly think of wrong in the navy with hearing and like how to find in the country in land. right. or like there's hardly middle class or even i honestly feel like racism is a big thing here. immigration, the way that we're handling with health care, stephen can know the story. the bring you today. virginia's newly elected republican governor has been busy this month link democratic policies including ending a musk mandate in public schools. and without in mind,

joe biden spokesperson is outraged. at least one county as well is defying the governor, demanding that kids were must in classes and on school buses. white house press secretary, jen sucky has backed up position. now that's as governor, glen young can implemented yet another divisive policy in public schools fulfilling his campaign promise to bon critical race theory about a legit systemic racism inherent in white people. yes, we will teach all history the good and the bad, but to actually teach our children that one group is advantaged. and another is disadvantaged simply because of the color of their skin cuts across everything we know to be true. glenn young can is the 1st republican governor to take office in virginia and nearly a decade beside c r t. c. we also campaigned on taxes, crime and tackling issues related to the pandemic. while promising to empower

parents and schools. there is a revolt against the way our schools have been managed comprehensively and critical race theory is a big part of the critical race theory is a political agenda that as absolutely in our schools and then pits our children against one another plan may be clear on day one, we will not have political agendas in the classroom, and i will bad, critical, right? very young can sit up, prepare parents as far as the right that they have to decide are going what affects their children in school. and when, when democratic opponents said that parents have no right basically to determine what is taught to kilbourne and school republicans seem to be more speaking up for what parents view. and i think parents new, not new, very positively, the incorporation of a critical race theory or aspect of that has their children or younger grades

going to school. i think it's inappropriate for that. i think the democratic party out of basically not a tune or out of touch with their with a large percent of the population. while speaking of parents in america, they've been left stumps. after a said tele club was launched for their children as an after school activity over the group call the american, satanic tempo. county name claims it's simply offers i scientific view of the world . satan club for 1st grade is good for this illinois school district is possible. the club is full of interesting lessons and fun and sponsored by the satanic temple of the united states. the satanic temple supports children to think for themselves own off to school sacon clubs of based upon a uniform syllabus that emphasizes a scientific rationalist, non superstitions. world viewed, the club will help children from 1st to 5th grade to learn benevolence and empathy

. the lessons include games, puzzles, scientific projects, an outdoor nature activities. well, the public seems unimpressed. the satanic tempo stated about its after school club program that no proselytize ation or religious instruction takes place. nonsense. everyone has a belief system, a religion. the satanic temple uses that clubs to brainwash kids in that anti god, religion of evolutionary naturalists. more proof that all country is going to hell . i can't imagine any parent would read out the after school said and clapped, sponsored by the satanic temple and think this sounds perfect for my 7 year old. despite the outrage, the illinois district defense, the site and club, as they meant to be education, the enriching and allowed by the local board of education. actually, any organization can take rent in publicly funded schools to illegally deny their immunization viewpoint, to pay to rent our publicly funded institution. after school hours,
