ah, ah, what's the media ramp up rhetoric over russia supposedly planning to invite you claim a claim that moscow has consistently denied when a prime minister is spending his time trying to convince the great british public that he's actually stupid rather than just a job. those are just some of the accusations against barry foreman if the boys johnson and parliament coffee about a try to find a good about flouting rules with a former going to kind of out of date. i mean, he was released without being charged to taking legal action against the u. k. government to restore his british passport off the case against collapse.

they issued my passport eventually after 8 years of waiting and then took it away 3 weeks later. this is all connected to the initial imprisonment in con, told them that hasn't gone away. the harassment continues over these past 2 decades . ah, well, for moscow, thanks for joining us this evening and our team to national i'm daniel hawkins. wherever you are this hour. welcome to the program. now western media are stepping up their attacks on moscow trumpeting what the kremlin cruz unsubstantiated warnings of russia is imminent invasion of ukraine. the russian government has strenuously denied any more any move towards a conflict. what is laid out? red lines against nato's eastward expansion towards its borders. he has all he's done quarter with the result. over the past several months, hysteria surrounding up reported russian invasion of ukraine has spread across the west, like wild fire, 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 done 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 ukraine off from the black sea. now, as you could 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 is the 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 so 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. recall for an end to the stereo, so is not to pile on tensions around the darkness problem. and most importantly, not to push hot has 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 u. s. secretary of state, anthony blink and touched down in ukraine for talks for, to quote, deter russia from further aggression. and at the very same time and entire shipment of n law anti tank missile systems from the u. k also touched down in the 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 confirmed 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 and i trust live now to margin someone's independent journalist writer and broadcaster own eastern europe. martin, thanks for joining us. that i good stop you in the program. why do you think was the media drumming up these accusations of russian evasion of ukraine? if at this moment and find this sort of genuine hope for some sort of dialogue,

some sort of resolution, given those talks between russia, the us and nathan, surely there's a bit of a contradiction here. well, there is celine because there isn't a shred of evidence to suggest that russia isn't sending to invade the crane, not least because there's nothing there that they really want. i think this may have something to do the nord string to pipeline which is completed and ready to function and elements really in the us state operators are very unhappy of of if that was to come on stream. and that gives them a very strong incentive to talk up the possibility of conflict to try and put pressure on the german government to cancel the pipeline. that may be one of the fact that we're, we're as close as much bigger and deeper hostility. those even comment from a ukrainian politician earlier today saying the claims of russian invasion are inciting unnecessary panic. and do you think the worth could change its rhetoric

anytime soon? perhaps if those folks are successful or part of the problem is they've trapman sales by their own rhetoric that the very early stages of the crisis the ukrainians were saying, well, there isn't much evidence that the russians are intending to evade. but the americans in particular, were very keen to stress that they were and then of course the ukrainians fell into line with what their, what their sponsors were suggesting. the problem with this kind of overdone rhetoric is it makes it very difficult and back down by the west without losing face. and that's why so in war is really and why do you think there's a reluctance by the west to accept russia's concerns about native expansion? we had the quote there from a, a fox anchor drawing parallels between china and mexico on the u. s. border being perceived as a threat, and they just don't seem to see what his point of view. why do you think that is?

well, i mean, the deep station in the west, the military industrial complex needs russia as an enemy. if peace breaks out the plenty of money, taxpayer money in the u. s. contract, plenty of good things that can be spent on more constructively in the us. you know, building infrastructure, rebuilding the health care system and so on. for the military. industrial complex needs a major enemy in order to justify the expenditures. so that underlies everything really. and i think that's by far the most important factor in this situation. you think in a short term and ultimately over the next few years. a solution can be found that takes into account the security concerns and wishes of all parties and countries involved. oh, do you think that was for thinking? well, i think it's actually quite straightforward. there's already the mince agreement, which is backed by the u. n. and the u. esl

a said that they accept it. and what that says is that the government in kiev must negotiate with the leadership of the breakaway republics to come some arrangements which is mutually satisfactory. and that's been on the table since the crisis 1st erupted in 2014. and the only thing preventing it is the desire by forces in the west to keep a confrontational attitude going with russia. although, as you can see, those 2 things took a colson. busy on fox news, justin, maybe this is a silly idea. and of course it is a silly idea. i mean, ultimately, what might come out of this if there's no resolution, is the russian side, they don't have to make it clear to the americans that this isn't just about the ukraine. you've got missiles and poland, romania which are 5 minutes flights on from moscow. and the answer to that is to do what we did in 962 and put missiles in the caribbean, which is close enough to you so that you understand why we're worried about your

missiles that are in our face in eastern europe. and they all thought, of course, hoping for a not a repeat of a $96.00 the to, but rather negotiated solution no more than someone's independent journalist, right. and broadcast, thanks so much for joining us in the program today. thank you. well, the british prime minister brochures and faces escalating backlash and accusations that he hosted boozy party during a cobra lockdown. even some of his own party members took part in grilling him in parliament and insisting he resign opposition and peace lead the onslaught to speak when a prime minister is spending his time trying to convince the great british public that he's actually stupid. rather than disowning a time that he go now, this week was supposed to be open ation. see big dog as quickly

become more petition dogs don't know why can the u. k. government find billions of pounds for property or some fraudsters, but they can't find compassion. why it's so hard for this prime minister to it meant that he made the bill so he should notable. yeah. and he should fall intervals while barbara johnson has faced the toughest prime minister's question since he was elected. and it also comes the day after he claimed that a downing street party, an alleged one, was in fact a work event. and that he wasn't born that he was breaking any rules while near. no one is buying that in the house of commons today as dozens of m. p 's including some back bench tories have said his time is up and he needs to go. and that argument was spearheaded by the leader of the opposition, the prime minister, the conservative party of showed themselves incapable of offering the leadership and government this country deserve. while we were sitting out plans to keep bills down, he was planning parties while we were sitting out plans to save jokes in the steel

industry. he was, he was trying to say just one job. yeah. he's own doesn't, the country is up so much better than the other. i don't believe continuing to ask a few questions which, you know, will be fully addressed by he's wasting, he's wasting new time. he's wasting people's time. this is because he continues to be completely irrelevant to be delivered while they did that and we, we vaccinated. well, they vacillated, mister speaker. well, of course kissed alma hasn't gotten off scot free either. as in the heights as a pandemic, he too was photographed eating and drinking in a constituency office in darville, though he is refusing to apologize, saying there's nothing wrong with having a drink with your dinner and says, this is boris johnson's attempt to sort of shift the focus away from his own political scandal, which of course, or is johnson really is embroiled in?

obviously this comes as pressure is mounting on the prime minister to resign, but he can also be forced out as well by members of parliament. in fact, 20 tory m p 's, they all met up just yesterday to discuss the future of boris johnson and several now have publicly come forward to submit these letters. all they vote of no confidence in boris johnson. although in an official capacity, the 1922 committee needs 54 letters to trigger a leadership contest. now, rumor has it. there are plenty plenty more. in fact, an official poll it sophomore a pool pole of the public suggest the one in 6 people want to see this vote of no confidence come. however, in an attempt to distract from all of this, florence johnson chose to day to announce new cove. it measures, in fact he is ditching all covered restrictions including mandatory face mos, including the vaccine certificates. and of course are working from home guidance

from next week. on monday we reduced the isolation period to find full days with to negative tests, and that will soon come a time where we can remove the legal requirement to. so why straightened together, just as we didn't place legal obligations or people to isolate if they have a clue? well, that hasn't gone down to well, where the public has back in 2020. when boris johnson was displaying covered symptoms, minutes before he actually tested positive, he actually was refusing to even isolate. but that isn't even the worst news of the day in a monumental move. what we saw minutes before prime is as questions this afternoon christian wake, but a former torri m p, actually decided to defects to the labor party. but let's see how all this goes and how it all unravels over the next few days. of course, we're waiting for the investigation led by stu grand. in fact, some may say the parents don't, indeed hiding behind those conclusions. could they be the final nail in the coffin?

will some say, politically speaking, bars johnson is already a dead man walking fellow at the bow group thing. thank whom we spoke to says that even a relatively successful intervention by the prime minister is unlikely to help regain the public's trust. i think that the policy guys did, she isn't as much of an issue as maybe people will think it is simply because it's pulling was already down. the for the scan will probably won't seem focused on issues these promise to deliver on the thing. johnson came out swinging today in an attempt to go on the offensive and went back some public supports and she used the repeating of random forest measures to try regains and public support. i don't think that will suede public opinion. i think they've been lied to too many times. i think some honesty at this stage could probably have been a good saying maybe we're against national trust. i think the p. m to have the honesty, sort of admit wholeheartedly that he was wrong. roused insurance goes from the issue. i think he may have regained some rules. one doesn't have to wait for the

results of commission, so that's not going to do any good with the background, or the repelling person in front 7 fighting blank for illegal margaret crossings in english channel where they were 1000 margaret's beliefs. have made the journey from the e. u to british shows this month alone. the number of la grants attempting the journey has been growing exponentially in recent years and dozens died. or what missing last year while attempting to cross. in 202128000 margaret believe to have crossed the channel to england more than 3 times the number just one year earlier. now u k. officials believe that 65000 individuals could try this year when our joy and live by pool oakley for migration spokesman for the u. k. independence policy. thanks for joining us. good. talking to program today. now this decision to put the british navy in charge of petroleum channel, the port walgreens has already been criticized by gone by other quarters as well.

why didn't you case considering such, share what are perceived to be drastic measures? is ridiculous. ideas use the navy, the british navy has been cut to the bone anyway, and its purpose is not to repel illegal immigrant boats as a much easier way of doing this. and maps is to announce that anybody who answers the united kingdom via these boats is going to automatically have the request for asylum rejected, which is very similar to what the australian state. but the problems, of course, getting much worse because at the moment we've already had over 1000 illegal immigrants come across the channel this month, which is more than 4 times what we had in january of last year, or any 223. at that moment now we who are concerned about this conservative government's approach to immigration notes,

that's pretty patel. i'm secretary often comes out with quite fierce rhetoric when it comes to dealing with these matters. but she never ever delivers. and for example, we are without countries like gone on to actually knowing about it, saying that we are going to transport our illegal immigrants over there. that rightly replying and telling us that they don't want them. and the other thing that we should actually be doing, which the government isn't doing, is studying from so they can keep the illegal immigrants. if they are going to be a school back to dry land, then they should be escorted back to the shows of prompts. not the united kingdom. do you think the modern crisis could serve as a way for the prominent sternness cabinet to diffract, distract attention rather away from the so called the policy a scandal? well yes that's, that's exactly why the rhetoric is coming out at the moment. this has been a problem ever since johnson came into power back in 2019

tourism i was little bit weak or miss she famously saw in the un migration compact show some has come out with big words. so this is very convenient. the only now as the illegal immigrant crisis, which is a crescendo, and at the same time, the local subarus johnson to go this, these firm promises a being made. we've been fooled too many times by pretty selling. the conservatives are not going to do anything about it. so do you think you can, government has the will and the capacity to handle a crisis, and do you think also the country could actually loan and resolving what's going on in the channel? or do we need to cooperate with france as opposed to trading? blame and accusations in our cooperation with from seems to be limited to paying them several 1000000 pounds a year to deal with a problem at their end. but they're not dealing with the problem. they simply seem to be focusing the money and passing their legal immigrants on to us. and when it

comes to the physicality of this, i repeat, we don't have to have ships in the channel. turning back these legal boats, we simply set out approximation if you like, that if you come into our country by this way and the asylum application which you make will be automatically rejected. easiest way of dealing with it. all right, so we've got time for today. thanks so much, paul oakley, for migration spokesman for the u. k. independence party on a former guantanamo detainees. amazon beg, who spent nearly 3 years in the infamous us prison without being shot, is now taking legal action for the u. k. to restore his passport, a beg, who's a british pakistani had been initially detained 2 decades ago when allegations of enrollment and terrorist activities. it was released from montano in 2005. it was attained again. but you can police a decade later, but the case against him collapse. he applied for

a passport in 2019 and even got one in september 2021. but it was provoked just 4 weeks later. beg believes his passport troubles are connected to his previous imprisonment. guantanamo the passport was when i received it, i was overjoyed i, i tweeted out that i'm finally be able to travel. and then within 3 weeks i was, i received a letter, an ironically this letter i received would show the great deal of incompetence was actually primarily the cover letter was addressed to a person who'd been convicted in the north of england for passport fraud. and it was dated 2017. nonetheless, the letter sort of rece regurgitate and reiterated the reason why my passport had been revoked back in 2013. it was they said, based upon a trip that i did to turkey at the syria. again, i was in investigation investigating the role of the british government in working with the various regime. i have no doubt in my mind that this has to do with holding the british government to account the fact that they issued my passport

eventually off the 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 to is just vindictive 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 bag was held at one time for just under 2 years, almost $600.00 days of which was spent in solitary confinement. he said he another tiny face, what the us brand and haunts interrogation and the conditions the tort. sure if this is a short history of the 2 decades of the orange prison camp that continues to hold inmates to this day, ah

was on bag says his previous incarceration at guantanamo is continuing to disrupt

his life. i do believe that the my, my passport has been revoked initially back in when i came back from continental because primary for evidence that came out of guantanamo the former guantanamo prisoners, that i've documented and worked with all around the world. clearly, i think the majority of not all of them are actually put on some kind of a list of the united states that, that has stopped them or prevents them from opening bank accounts. it stops them from travelling properly harassing them. so the, essentially the, the imprisonment of guantanamo may end when you're freed. but the, the connection to guantanamo and the targeting disruption of your life does not. and this episode for me is one of the proofs of that though there are others. the number of daily tobin cases is surging in europe will be more con variant spreading across the continent. but so through a waves of unrest to,

to tough new restrictions being imposed in some countries. what of warning you might find the following images distressing. whether i have been von and glasses in northern germany where hundreds protested against possible vaccine mallets that would prevent people from entering into venues without a negative test or a job. people sort of fall crackers and at least a dozen, more importantly, arrested officers thought the protest you to demonstrate as flowers and masked monday when wall in italy, thousands took to the streets in protest over the weekend. it's not mandatory there for everybody over 50 to get a job. and it's essentially by and the, and vaccinated from using public transport or entering bars and restaurants, even with a negative proven to international. believe the clamp down amounts to discrimination and demand that the government rethinks its policies. 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. and c, international italian asked for alternative measures to allow the non vaccinated population to continue to carry out their work. anti is means of transport without discrimination or across the atlantic. a number of daily covered cases has reached almost $547000.00 stats while a recent poll, so 59 percent of democratic motors would support a government policy that would confine of actuated americans to their homes and less in an emergency. now one of the most popular newspapers in the state of utah even publish it for in the morning. the motions are 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. and we discussed this issue with a panel of guests. so you think that if such a policy was introduced, that would create inequality and still not stop the virus from spreading. we are

witnessing a major action of discrimination and people are divided into clusters. and what we are witnessing is sort of cold. the civil war. i mean, i would call it the civil war because we put him bother against, brought up friends against friend you vaccinate. you are not like ca to think it's right for any qualities. people standing in line in the u. s. for 4 hours, just to get a job, people having to travel in other parts of the world when they don't have disposal income to do so or to time to take off from work because most people have wanted to return to normal. that's creating a lot of inequalities 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 been there. i will say, doesn't stop me from spreading the wires further. so i think that's where it does

con, the seems to be very, this proportion and actually taking away the choice of adults who have, you know, particularly under 50 who's got lots of life experience. and i'm pretty sure they're quite responsible people and they should be given the choice that we protect and the constitution, their right to move would provide to movement is one of the fundamental why to in the constitution, which is a document of positive art. but it's also natural why to also natural law if you believe in the assistance of natural lo, there is a why to free movement. well, i think we should be really worried about the effect the public can have in these types of movements, particularly when 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 it 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 home drunk drivers, people who are part of intimate partner violence of those. there are other things in society where we seem to be pretty lenient. the world health organization contains the stress to getting racks and i to it is important sign as of all tool and fighting upon them. 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 of the headlines for this, our knees, views. hughes heading away in just a few moments time, the theme and i are back in a half an hour with the very latest join us again. but ah,

the vitamin ministration is under water in just about every ways. does this do too bad? policies are bad messaging, maybe it's vo. there's also important question. yes, presidents come and go, but elite and special interests remain very powerful. are they a threat to democracy? all americans did not know before a saturday's hostage extend off at congregation at beth israel. the name my lake, fidel o'clock, it turns out the intelligence community did. we're gonna bring the alarm details as to how the terrorist was allowed to legally acquire a usb and fly into and around the united states without limitation with a criminal record. and on the british security services at watch list as a subject of interest in california, students have been singing an as tech chant. as a part of a start state multi cult.
