ah, ah, top stories this, our western media ramp up rhetoric over russia supposedly planning to invade ukraine. a claim though that moscow has consistently denied brittany's counseling vaccine passports in the parents, paid by boris johnson to save his reputation after the party scandal and human rights group. amnesty international says top restrictions against the unvaccinated in amount discrimination. we discussed the issue with the panels. we are witnessing the major axiom of discrimination. a lot of the problems that go beyond just notions of any allergies. i think that's where it does kind of seems to be very dis proportional and actually taking away the choice and the midwife in the u. s. and the furious after the word mother is banned from

her profession is pressure grows for health care workers to use gender neutral language. a good afternoon, just gone for o'clock in the russian capital, you're watching art international. my western media are stepping up their attacks on moscow trumpeting what the kremlin calls, unsubstantiated warnings of rushes, imminent invasion of ukraine. the russian government has strenuously denied any move towards a conflict, but has laid out red lines against nato's eastward expansion towards its borders. with more, his artes don't caught. over the past several months, hysteria surrounding up reported russian invasion of ukraine has spread across the west like wildfire, and to top it all off a number of media outlets. specifically, cnn are continuing to show reports proport accusing russia, basically of provoking the conflict in don boss. russia is preparing what's known

as a false flag operation to create a pretext for another invasion of ukraine in the view of american intelligence. that could be an impending attack of some kind on the current territory, move up from the crimea and join all his territory up. so your buffer zone is bigger. one level up from that annex the whole of the coastline, and cut ukraine off from the black sea. now, as you can see there, cnn even gave us a geography lesson claiming to prove why russia was intending to invade ukraine, apparently. but to be fair, though not everyone in the western media was failed to see this double double standard of accusing russia of some sort of aggression. well, actually, nato was arming a hostile government right on its doorstep. imagine if mexico fell under the direct military control of china, we would see that as a threat. of course. well, that's how russia views nato control. if you credit, why wouldn't they? these accusations of m and an eminent invasion by russia. ukraine have been going

around for several months now and time and time again. moscow has repeated that it is not planning any saw, any sort of invasion and that having its own troops within its own territory is not a threat to anyone. we stress once again, russia is not going to attack in the practice of moving troops on our own soil is a sovereign right. we call for an end to the exterior, so as not to pile on tensions around the dominant problem. and most importantly, not to push hotheads in key of towards new provocations. and it's also important to note that moscow has made it clear that it's trying to find a diplomatic solution to the de escalation of the conflict and ukraine. rushes made a number of proposals for security guarantees between itself and nato to prevent the further eastern expansion of the western military alliance. but unfortunately, washington has shot down those proposals as what they called non started negotiating points. so there still is a lot of work to be done in the sphere of diplomacy here. what's interesting is that just on wednesday,

the us secretary of state antony blink and touched down in ukraine for talks for, to quote, deter russia from further aggression. and at the very same time, an entire shipment of n law anti tank missile systems from the u. k also touched down and ukraine. so that might not seem like a very diplomatic move, but london says there are only intended for defensive purposes. i can today confirmed to the house that in light of the increasingly threatening behavior from russia. and in addition to our current support, the u. k is providing a new security assistance package to increase ukraine's defensive capabilities. we have taken the decision to supply ukraine with light anti armor, defensive weapon systems. now the u. k says that these weapons are for defensive purposes, but it can't exactly control what he does with these weapons once it's in its own hands, right. and we're also seeing ukraine becoming much more dependent on western governments, both for armaments and military training. back in 2021. the u. s. also supplied

with a large array of javelle and anti tank weapon systems. the pentagon recently confirms that u. s. military advisors will be staying in ukraine and they have also been reports that ukrainian special forces are actually being trained to fight the russian military on us soil. that's something that was unprecedented. and this is all, while nato countries are actually reinforcing their military positions right. against the border of russia. so if you look at the overall picture doesn't exactly seem like rushes, the aggressor here on quarter speaking to me a bit earlier. well, we spoke to a political ominous cambridge university. he said that nato expansion does undermine the chances for the escalation of the tensions is very understandable that most good might be being frustrated by the development of the recent years. i think the very acts of pointing out that having a west and military alliance that companies basically all countries except russia is be stabilized and it's always been destabilizing. the expansion of nato in the

990 isn't to thousands, has not been helpful to building trust and, and we do need to be pressing the reset button to coordinate fries. unfortunately, nato members have seen much more focus and emphasis on, on nato, and on military preparations, rather than upon common cooperative security mechanisms that are crucial to your future. now the former guantanamo detainees know as a bag, who spent nearly 3 years in the infamous us prison with that being charged just not taking legal action for the u. k. to restore his passport. while at british, pakistani he had been initially detained 2 decades ago, one on a geisha of involvement and terrorist activities, but was released from guantanamo in 2005. he was detained again though by u. k. police a decade later,

but the case against him collapse. he then applied for a british passport in 2019 and even got one in september of 2021. but it was revoked 4 weeks later. so let me talk when i see most, i'm becky join december. very grateful. thanks for your time this afternoon. just bring us up to date them with your situation if you can, because we heard that you received a british passport, not so long ago, but then it was revived. why was it that we were given any reasons? yes, the passport was when i received it, i was overjoyed i, i tweeted out that i'm finally be able to travel to go and visit people around and go to go to my daughter's wedding abroad. and then within 3 weeks i was, i received a letter, an ironically the letter i received would show the great deal of incompetence was actually primarily the cover letter was addressed to a person who had been convicted in the north of england for passport fraud. and it was dated 2017, and i left the letter sort of rece regurgitate and reiterated the reason why my

passport has been revoked back in 2013. even though the govern to try to prosecute me. the charges fell apart. i was declared a not guilty and the police went above and beyond and said, was a big is innocent despite all of that. the fact that they issued my passport eventually after 8 years of waiting and then took it away 3 weeks later with absolutely no explanation at all shows. 2 things to me. one is a great deal of incompetence, and 2 is just indicative vindictiveness that has lost over 20 years. this is, this is all connected to the initial imprisonment in guantanamo that hasn't gone away be the harassment continues over these past 2 decades. and this is evidently a part of that you mentioned that you are not going to take legal action. what is the basis then of your case? so base of the case is essentially to say that the government have have said that

they've been doing reviews and checks and with an awesome what reviews and checks all day the take 8 years for which you issue a passport and then you revoke it off to it and say you still need to make more checks either you haven't done your job properly, or you're deeply incompetent or you're lying, or you're being vindictive it's, it's something in relation to that. so we've issued a pre action letter to the home office and to the post office, giving them notice that we will be taking them to court within days. if they don't given an explanation and return my passport immediately. and why is it so important for you to get this passport back? well, like anybody else, they say passport is a privilege, but really, and in all honesty, the passport is the most undeniably recognised document of an identity of a person. nobody will ever challenge you if you say that this is my possible number, challenge your identity. so when i have to go to places and give identification, i don't have a passport to show people in order for that kind of those sort of identity checks to take place. and this is why the discussion as people will say that this passport

released is just not quite just give it to anybody, but i'm a citizen of this country like or dislike it. and my ability, my freedom to travel, to go and visit my daughter, who just recently got married and i couldn't go to a wedding, relatives passed away and most importantly, investigation work. and i think this is one of the reasons why the government doesn't want me to have a possible. i have been constantly showing that the government has been involved in a rendition, torture detention without trial. and that has been the, the body of my work for the past 15 years, and they simply don't like it. and these are the, the hidden ways of trying to disrupt all of the work that i've been doing. and then as i said, this is another 3rd time, and in almost 15 years, when my passport has been revoked, the 1st time was when i came back from fulton and they took it away immediately, but gave it back. and then they said that did it again a couple of times. sure. and if you don't win this case, this legal case,

what are the ramifications for you? can you stay in britain? would you be forced to leave me more? what could be the repercussions for you? well, no, i'm still friends of the u. k. that passport is simply something that they can take away from you. it doesn't take away your, your citizenship. and this is something different because there are many people. majority of muslims in the war on terrorism, their nationality revoked. and that again is shows a kind of a 2 tier race at system that exists. but for me know, if i don't when this i'm still here, this is the only places i can travel without a passport in this country within the borders of england, scotland, wales, and northern ireland. but i have full confidence that we will because you simply can't show that all of this incompetence is somehow logical or even lawful. okay, look, my was, and we appreciate you coming on to see this afternoon and explaining your story to us. we do wish you all the best we have to leave it. that was, was him back a former guantanamo prison. the phone or the news that boris johnson has

a name said he is canceling co passports as well as mask mandates in public places . britton's pm made the announcement during prime minister's questions in parliament and the move many do see as a bid to shift attention from a growing scandal overlooked dime, parties will make his are angry, but he and his staff allegedly defied cobra rules. the whole boozy get together and that he does face a potential vote of no confidence to so let's get the latest go to london and correspondence shut it moustache. the he's at side parliament forrest, and it's been an interesting afternoon to say the least says nick boris johnson in the commons. well, it certainly does seem like this move and end of all the restrictions somewhat is a distraction from the downing street party allegations today. in mrs. question maurice johnson, the prime minister announced electing one of these restrictions that includes those vaccine certificates,

mandatory phase small and public spaces. and of course the working from home official guidance from next week that will all be scrapped, but it comes in that the toughest try mrs. questions at 1st, johnson has ever faith for i minister this week was all about it was supposed to be at least all about operations, said big dog, but it turns out it's more like a dog dinner. in fact, just minutes the full prime and says questions this afternoon in quite an astonishing move. a tory m p christian wake for he defected to the labor park. he was only elected a duck in 2019 and just 2 years later, he's doing a quite astonishing move from one side of the house of commons to the other. but that's not all. in fact, throughout the afternoon we've had dozens of m. p. 's opposition m p 's, but also some tory back benches saying that boris johnson time is up. and that was led by the kiss, some of the leader of the opposition. and he said that boris johnson is not fit to

run this country. the prime minister could serve to party have shown himself incapable of offering for leadership with her while we were starting out plans to keep bill's town. he was planning parties while we were sitting out plans to save jobs in the steel industry. he was, he was trying to save just one job, and the country is up so much better than this, out of talk about it and soon to be out of office prime. and it, when it comes as pressure is mounting on boris et johnson, many people calling on him to resign. but that could be another way out for the prime minister. and that could come in the form of being politically forced out around 20 tory m p. 's. they met just yesterday to discuss as far as johnson's future. and then this morning, boys johnson woke up to 10 of them, half of them publicly coming out submitting these letters of votes of no confidence

in the prime minister. now, the 1922 committee that deals with all of that, they will need 54 of those letters to then trigger a leadership contest. so rumor has it though there's plenty more dumpling away under the surface. many more. m p. 's are ready to come forward. to submit their own letters of these no confidence of votes, but forest johnson is still clinging on it to survive. and sticking with what he said, just yesterday that he thought the main part in question was a work event that nobody wanted that it was any otherwise happy lied to the public and parliament. nobody told me that what we were doing was as you say, against the rules keys on the record. say under oath you are lie. in that you were warned about this event and you went ahead anyway that you knew. i did tell you it already categorically that nobody me i can't believe that we would have gone

ahead with an event that people was saying was against the rules. you're not saying, hey, nobody warned me that it was against the rule because i would, i would remember that. well, 4 months now we've pretty much had almost every single day. another drunken story coming out of a downing street. it seems as though this is one of the was political hangovers in history, football, johnson, and many of the other conservatives in the cabinet are still saying, let's wait without investigation led by to grey. the investigation, of course, looking into what exactly happened throughout the pandemic who is and what actually happened, where they parties, where they work events, so that quite imminent were expected to see the results of the investigation sometime this week. but those conclusions that she makes could be the final nail in the coffin for many se, politically speaking, or is johnson is

a dead man walking already fancy more twists and turns to come. thank. he shouted shudder. edwards dashed there outside parliament in london. not the number of danika cases, a surging in europe, prophy omicron buried, spreading across the continent, but so to the waves of unrest, g to tough ne restrictions being imposed in some countries a word of warning. you might find some of the following footage, disturbing. now that have been violent clashes in northern germany were hundreds protested against the possible vaccine mandate. that would prevent people from entering into venue with action negative k, the test or jab, people sat. so fire crack is at least a dozen weapon. reportedly arrested officers stopped the process g to demonstrate his flags in mass mandate there. meanwhile, initially thousands took to the streets and processed over the weekend is mandatory that every body over the age of 15 to get okay, good job. and it's attention and see the vaccinated from using public transport or

entering bars and restaurants even with a negative caving test. amnesty international police at the common dime does amount to discrimination and demands the government which thinks its policy. the recently approved reinforce green pass must be a time limited arrangement and the government must continue to ensure that the entire population can enjoy their funded mental rights. amnesty international italy asked for alternative measures to allow the non vaccinated population to continue to carry out their work. anti is means of transport without discrimination across the atlantic, the number of daily cave cases is reached almost 547000. and that's while a recent poll to shows that 59 percent of democratic voters would support a government policy that would confine unvaccinated americans to their homes and less in an emergency. one of the most popular newspapers in the state of utah even published an editorial, demanding that the measures a brought in were utah

a truly civilized place. the governor's next move would be to find a way to mandate mass vaccination. going as far as to deploy the national guard to ensure that people without proof of vaccination would not be allowed. well, anywhere. well, we discussed this issue with a panel of gas cd. think that if such a policy was introduced, it would create inequality and still not stop the virus from spreading. we are witnessing a manger action of discrimination, and people either buy that into clusters. and what we are witnessing is saw to of cold the civil war. i mean, i would call it a civil war because we put in bother against brother, friends against friend. you vaccinate a, you are not like ca to so the impact on society of those marrow. so do slow these simply devastating, and i speak from the point of view of the story and i think it's right for any qualities. people standing on line of the us for 4 hours just to get

a job. people having to travel in other parts of the world when they don't have disposable income to do so, or to the time to take off from work. because most people want to return to normal, that's creating a lot of inequality. is that go beyond just notions of ologies about whether people want to participate in the vaccine drive or not. we already know that the nation doesn't start from having kobinie and i will say doesn't stop me from spreading the wires further. so i think that's where it does kind of seem to be very this proportion and actually taking away the choice of, you know, add those who have, you know, particularly under 50 who's got lots of life experience. and i'm pretty sure they are quite responsible people. and they should be given the choice, the report tact and the constitution. their right to move right to movement is one of the fundamental why to in the constitution, which is a document, a positive,

right? but it's also natural why to also natural law if you believe in the existence of natural law. the reason why to free movement, and i think is natalie. absolute, but it is also anti got to do chanel and illegal to prevent people from moving. if they're not vaccinated, well, i think we should be really worried about the effect of the public can have in these types of movements, particularly, and government started to bring policing into it or military into it. that means that they've given some thought to what may or may not be legal and what may or may not be necessary. but again, i think that if we're, if we're this concerned about coven and listen, i've had 4 shots myself. so it's not that i'm opposed personally to this boat. i am opposed to it is that we don't start talking about keeping other people who are drunk drivers, people who are part of intimate partner violence, those. there are other things in society where we seem to be pretty lenient in for some reason for us to be coming down so hard on this particular case where we're

bringing and policing and military, i think should be very concerned. and having conversations about our liberties and how governments are going against some of our rights. well, the world health organization does continue to stress that getting vaccinated is important and is a vital to, in fighting the pandemic. most of the people in the hospital, any country you take, or any city are unvaccinated. so let's just remember that we have very good vaccines now and we need to use them. we need to vaccinate more people. that inclusive in the drive is impacting health care professionals in the us and britain with midwives no longer allowed to use the word mother. but instead, they must say agenda neutral term, like the thing party thing attendant isabella mal, been in new york, says that she is outraged by the measures. the groundwork was set that we no

longer use words like one and mother. and it's now the most contemporary thing you can do. the most inclusive thing you can do is use gender neutral language. so language like burning bodies, burling people are the person many straighter people who bleed chest feeder, while the terminology is intended to be inclusive of transgender parents. but many health workers do appear uncomfortable with the language and say that they will be ostracized, or even worse, lose their jobs. if they do, say an unapproved word, it's about them. albin again says that many in her profession, a scared a speaking act. so the 1st time i came across needs requirements was a do a training in 2016 in brooklyn, new york. and my initial reaction was to go along with it. i couldn't imagine how it would be hurtful to anyone because i was told that it was modern language. it

was inclusive language and we wouldn't want to make anyone feel bad. i think the biggest problem is that there is a material consequence. so pronouns, for example, do not exist in a vacuum. it unfortunately leads to a lifetime of part of pharmaceutical dependence. kind of trans humanist future body dissociation putting children on puberty blockers, right? the pronouns and the language capture is part of the bigger picture, which is, you know, dissociation from our flesh being beans from our material. reality. if people are being threatened, many, many women have come to me who have either been fired or left their jobs because noncompliance is, is not, is not tolerated. i was unwilling to go along with the compulsive

speech. and what that looked like for me was, you know, off being ostracized by my, you know, new york city birth and post partum do look community. the defamation trial of a guardian journalist is currently taking place in london is over claims that back in 2019 and multimillionaire rex it back had linked to the russian government during the case withdraw from the european union as his murdered guns. you have take supplies to look at whether russia, again, is being skate, gagged. we have reached a point mold past the absurd we. we left that behind a long time ago where anything that happens and someone doesn't like it, that had happened. well, it gets blamed a russia absurd was roughly when they claim that that trump was a russian agent. ludicrous was when american officials began literally blaming their headaches on russia. and of course there was breaks it the best explanation

for which seemed to be putin. aaron banks has been duncan, my repeated accusations of close links with russia, the parallels between the russian intervention and bridget and the russian intervention, the trump campaign, appear to be extraordinary breaks. it is now being pinned on russian interference with all of these parties were engaging in anti european project. right. probably funded with rush and money air and bank. the guy who comes with nigel for, i'd look into his head while favorite presidents and policies and saxes and businessmen all got the russian agent treatment from kenya, west to robert de niro. there's also a british millionaire who became an honorary russian agent because he donated to breaks it when under the russian government offered money to iron banks and not gonna even gone into the lies that iron banks has told about his correct relationship with the russian government. i see he line about his contact with the russian government because he did. this is a guardian contributor,

who for had troubles ended up in court for, for libel nova that tweet which she later deleted and for that phrase. during a ted talk, she had previously said this was an attempt to silence her. an attack on journalism, pointing to the fact that banks has a russian wife where she claims, citing experts is a red light. banks on the other hand says he just wants her to stop making things up for you. okay. well um, so i is the chess president t tinsley alleged money if it is the case. but now coastal carol cad wallader has since dog back. she posted an apology to miss the banks, but, but still claims her reporting was of utmost public interest and 22nd of october 2020. i treated that anne had been found to have broken the law. i accept he has not. i regret making this full statement, which i have deleted it,

and i take not to repeat it. i apologized, you are and for the upset and distress caused. now cad wallader claims in court the and she never meant that he took the kremlin money, will that the kremlin offered him money, or she meant this. he had extensive ties to the russian state, and that the public should have known about it. mister banks, this agrees, banks has told the court that had extensive relationship amounted to a drinking session and g and lunch with the russian ambassador in london which, which hundreds of lull, if not thousands of people have done. he also says that these made up allegations have hurt his and his children's lives. he also said his sons had heard from their teachers and fellow school peoples that he was involved with the russians, and that a man had thrown a drink at him in public while accusing him of being a liar and selling his country down the river. carol now says that she was only repeating what other media outlet said,

but other media outlets say that they were quoting her lead. it's like a closed loop of irresponsibility. but carol also has a reputation, even amongst her colleagues, one of infatuation with blaming russia. i have read many of her unsourced unsubstantiated claims of amazement that they were ever published for years. she has pumped these claims about russian agents and russian money throughout our body politic and the process. she has not only attacked individuals, but every member of the british public who voted, breaks it in 2016. her story keeps evolve it as the court case drags on her letters. the fences that banks might have been used and exploited by the kremlin. much to her is as reasonable. after all, he does have a russian wife, which i, today's journalism standards is apparently enough to mess up someone's life.

that was more against the f watching r t nice to have a company this afternoon just approaching har. possible here in moscow, we're back again at the top of the ah, the by did ministration is under water in just about every way. is this due to bad policies are bad messaging? maybe it's both. there's also an important question. yes, presidents come and go. but elite and special interests remain very powerful. are they a threat to democracy with people with.
