are at the end of the day, self interested you can pretty well predict which way bitcoin is going, and the fact that nations will make it legal tender and they'll be a half war going on in the house. right? ah, monica vows, retaliatory measures against german media are accredited in russia after birds lapse of broadcast ban on our consist. channel our tv learners, police chiefs under fire after report exposes how officers some of whom are still in the job. joked about raping colleagues and killing children. the santa chief jessica quits over an affair with a coworker. he leaves plummeting ratings in his wake after told him to come with

. hi there, very good morning and thanks for joining me here on. moscow has vowed a mirror, a response against german media accredited in russia. after a burly in watchdog band, our sister channel r t t. across all platforms. the verdicts of the german media regulator is an unambiguous signal that russian concerns have been defiantly ignored. this step deprives us of any choice but to start implementing retaliatory measures against german media accredited in russia as well as internet intermediaries who have arbitrarily and unreasonably deleted the channels accounts from their platforms. then hawkins, he's covering this one for his morning done. we'll salacious reaction from ryan will. russian officials already said that they'll raise this issue will be the media regulated with a foreign ministry. also stating that as a retaliation for the pressure exerted by the jelly media regulator on

r t d. german media outlets and russia may also face restrictions in view all these measures. and of course, these are quantum president in germany. they need to regulate has banned r t. now not only from media from satellites, but across all platforms, including online and applications, as well. saying broadcasts must stop by the required media. low license was not available. the organisation and distribution of the tv program via a live stream on the internet via mobile and smart tv parking news and via satellite must therefore be discontinued. our tv has the south appeal, the decision, the case now will be with the lawyers on the court to see what the future will hold in a short term. yeah, i mean, what's the basis for, for the, the pale? how will our see will russia in challenge? the decision was to de says that it will cause things within the ream it. so v laws and regulations by saying they're paying their license under the european convention of trying to frontier television through serbia saying the case was

cause things germany is legally want to type. there's generally absolutely no broadcasting happening from berlin at all r t d e. the tv channel is o broadcasting right here for moscow via a license that was obtained with absolutely all according european rules and regulations, according to the european convention on transferred to your television. and we are free to broadcast via that license in 30 plus territory across europe. well, this isn't the 1st time marty has faced the pressure of course off to the lot in berlin. it was taken off with a few few title as soon as it loads interference with the signal as well. of you as a trouble getting, it's a signal with the european regulator regarding it's a quote as an irritant to be taken care of. and even the president vladimir putin has commented the prussia it has faced is unprecedented. which i know about the

closure of bank accounts. and so on, there's a large number of tactics they're using say, r t d console operate. they're infringing on freedom of speech, and that's very bad. it was clear that has been a very intense, concerted effort to stop for all tv broadcasting from moscow to germany in any way, shape or form. and it has had repercussions now, unfortunately, for german media in russia. so both sides here are the victims and really no winners in the situation. yeah, appreciate the update on hawkins with the see there. thank you. now, pink floyd's co founder turn activist roger water says that this band slacks of a talker, see they want to create and may have a monopoly of media that only expresses the accepted western narrative that comes down to them to those major outlets from

the ruling class. in western society and when in the western countries state, russia today actually provides an alternative view it to the view that is given by certainly every single american tv network. russia today, which you can watch in the united states, gives every appearance of a much more direct and truthful about the reality of our lives on this globe. they would like to shut down, shut down any voice that doesn't necessarily tow the line and agree with big brothers on every single issue. down to the last cross t and dotted iron, full stop. this is so, or, well in this is 1984 come to life. they're looking in a mirror. when that, when they accuse, are see a big disseminate of this information,

particularly now with all this nonsense about ukraine. they're looking in america. that's exactly what they are old and new reports in the u. k. refills, metropolitan police officers have been joking in private messages about raping women and killing children. quick warning. you may find some of the techs we're about to show you offensive offices were found to be glorifying, domestic abuse, rape and murder. some of the messages were about their own female colleagues with some of those behind the texts still in their jobs. they are both also says that the incidents are not isolated and cannot be explained away, is just the behavior of a few bad apples on these shania edwards dash t takes a closer look all careful incidents of hate crime involving racist, sexist and homophobic messages have been discovered by a watch stroke investigation into the police,

thousands of messages taking place between 20162018 were reviewed yet only 2 officers sacked. 9 of the 14 investigated are still serving in the force. one another holds a contract to staff role. now the commission of faces schools to go, but not just from the public, but senior politicians, as well as former high ranking officers. we're not seeing one of instances we've seen now too many instances of the most appalling behaviors. i also think it shows a feeler of leadership in some quarters. the met police may be the worst for institutional mas sultani and racism, but they're not the only ones. only a statutory judge lead inquiry will do. only new leadership will do. surely, christina dick cannot be proud of her record when this is the norman charing cross neck. get her 6 to your salary, past was renewed last auden, which feels like rewarding failure. the defense just bank apparently. in fact, the independent office. so please conduct found an officer was named mac, great,

the right person, following rumors about bringing a woman back to the police station to then sexually assault the met says it was sorry. we a deeply sorry to londoners and every one they have failed with their appalling conduct and acknowledge how this will damage the trust and confidence of many in the meant in the u. k. officers of the post the police by consent. but how can trust be restored? or even wasn't every what to investigate, to say the insidious culture is widespread. we believe these incidents and not isolated or simply the behavior of a few bad apples. the highly dumbing report is just the latest scandal under police commissioner, crescent dicks watch institutional feelings were placed under intense scrutiny by the rape and murder of sir evarado by a serving metropolitan police officer known to colleagues as the rapists during his career in. i'm just the mecca, serious about,

written in the force of rotten abuses of power. surely those individuals must go and boss to all is a toxic, dangerous culture that yet again, leadership times a blind eye to any cost. this is just not an isolated instance. part of this culture, which is a very toxic culture, number of offices have been challenges way since we saw wayne cousin being arrested for the offense, murdering sara ever or they were number, what this is from his own department that we charge to drape? is it damaging, is extremely damaging, significantly has damaged the reputation of the met police. i have spoken to number of women who said they don't feel comfortable in coming forward to report anything to offices. don't feel comfortable speaking to policemen and certainly will not get in the car of a policeman says the trust in damage amongst communities as well, how the culture needs to be tackled head on. we need change now.

cnn boss. jessica has fallen on his own sword for lying about an affair with a colleague joining an investigation into another scandal at the channel that involved former host chris cuomo. there's already been skating reaction to the resignation. jeff sucker, a world class lee bag, who was headed ratings in real news challenge. cnn for far too long has been terminated for numerous reasons. but predominantly because c n n has lost its way with viewers and everybody else. it had been a few weeks since someone had cnn resigned over some sexual deviancy. but jeff booker came through today and made sure we didn't forget what a band of thick perverts that entire news channel is. jeff zocker surprised his employees with an email announcing that he had been having an affair, consensual affair with an employee, one of his colleagues, and he did not disclose it under cnn's policies. what started out as a friendship,

evolved into a romantic relationship. and because of that, he is stepping down from cnn. i acknowledged the relationship evolved in recent years. i was required to disclose it when it began, but i didn't. i was wrong. as a result, i am resigning back in december john griffin, a producer at sienna, and was arrested by the f. b. i on rather serious charges. he was taken the federal prison, where he waits trial. ah, and john griffin was charge with setting up a facility to run interstate commerce for the purpose of learning in young, under age girls and their parents and training these under age girls to be sexually submissive. this is someone who rubbed shoulders with chris cuomo and you'll recall that chris cuomo also stepped down because it was proven that he was colluding with his brother andrew cuomo when he was facing scandals and eventually stepped down as governor of new york. when my brother's situation became turbulent,

being looped into calls with other friends of his and advisors, they did include some of his staff. i understand why that was a problem for cnn. there's been another recent dust up kate rosenfeld. cnn commentator kat rosenfeld, she compared jo grogan's audience, so the podcast or joe rogan, who's been at the center of some controversy recently. she compared his audience to people that are overweight and made some other comments that many did not appreciate about the audience of joe rogan. here's what she said. here's people who you know. they like something that we consider ourselves more enlightened. don't think it's good for them. you know, we think that they're internalizing this misinformation that they're using it to make bad decisions. many found these remarks to be somewhat ironic because the listenership and viewership of joe rogan's podcast is roughly 11000000 people. now, it's important to know that the viewership of cnn has been significantly decreasing . last year. in the 1st week of january,

viewership of cnn was at 2700000. but now in the 1st week of this year, it was only $548000.00 and many of looked on at this. and they've noticed that trust for mainstream media in the united states is certainly declining according to polls. and now i guess we see that jeff zocker, after 9 years the head of cnn is stepping down not good times for cnn, and for american mainstream media. we spoke to legal and media analyst, lionel he says syn, unlike other american mainstream media is on his last legs. if cnn was a patient and a hospital, the doctor would call a co, the doctor would look at his watch as a call at that's it. they put the sheet over the patient. cnn is gone. if i didn't know better, i think cnn, before every broadcast says, what can we say? that is so fundamentally stupid. so, and so unbelievable that people will talk about it. because we're not getting

audience audiences from doing what we're doing. we have to get audiences by having people commented, how stupid we are. many people it's, they're expected to be fairness. many people believe that c, n n, always them a duty of fairness. people will say, this isn't fair. cnn. there, journalist, they're supposed to be journalist. this isn't fair. how can you say this? how can you get away with this? how can they do this if you can't do well on your show, say something stupid and hope somehow that, you know, social media picks up on it. if social media pick up on your story, maybe that will help because that's the 2nd tier of their work. not true. that journalistic integrity go. no, no, no, they don't care about that. did you notice us how to be doing the clicks on the

metrics and we get like, are we being re tweeted, what are people saying, are we viral? that's all they care about. cable news as like a runaway train or a monster that keeps eating and consuming and you've got to keep feeding this monster 24 hours a day. anything, paper, just feed it. news stories, anything a click repeat repeat. what are the people who start your own problem? does come as your energy crisis deepens, the commissions given is blessing to re plus define gas, nuclear as green energy, or after the breath. join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. i'll be speaking the guess of the

world politics, sport business. i'm sure business. i'll see you then. oh, is your media a reflection of reality? in the world transformed? what will make you feel safer? isolation, whole community. are you going the right way? where are you being led? somewhere? direct. what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows.

ah welcome back in canada also was police chief is sent to the army may need to be sent in against truckers protesting mandatory chaps there may not be a police solution to this demonstration. this is a national issue. every option is on the table to resolve this demonstration. protest is situated along the canadian american border so that they won't budge unless the government likes you to enter in. canada will now be required to quarantine upon arrival. if on jumps reports of negotiations between the 2 sides of surface so, so far to no apparent avail, one truck driver told us he's been overwhelmed by the support number for spanish. and when we're traveling on the convoy, i was the lead truck and every bridge you came up to overpass. the crowds run

believable. there is one bridge that i had to get across to pick up. part of my convoy and hamilton that the police were calling me and say, you know, when you come in i might have to close it for lean bridge. there's 500 or more of your supporters on this bridge. it's getting unsafe. i was able to get through there, but i mean, it was yeah, there was people. hi 5 in me as i drive to drop my truck. it was just unbelievable . every bridge flags on it flying. there was companies that hadn't been creams up in the holding flag. there was, it was, there is thousands and thousands of people that we've seen and bridges wait for us in the field by their farms logging companies, sitting along the edge of the roadway before us. it was just,

it was unbelievable. the wall the go funds me sites as whole to donations to the drivers, citing legal issues to day ticks raised around $10000000.00 for the truck is cause that says facebook removed a page advertising their rally in a bid to quell and rested the border. critics of slammed the censorship at its finest. the truck, uh, we spoke to says that the purchase will be cowed. we all that is supporting us. we are getting support for everything. we're not going to run this applause. we're not going to run out of time. what our prime minister doesn't understand is all those trucks that are there. they're not working because it is mandates. we're all to go. we can stay in our trucks where we're used to sleep in and out. busy or trucks for weeks on and we stay on the road. we have just a quick count. we got sap hoses of trucks.

the natural gas and nuclear power could soon be classed as green energy, and the u. the are being commission supports the idea which has been slammed by environmental groups as green washing. correspondent, pizza oliver has the story for you entered she's been in focus for quite a while with energy prices across year of being through the roof. but what we've seen on wednesday was the commission outline their plans to reclassify some natural gas projects and nuclear power projects on green energy investments. what the u commission hope that this would do is that it would well take a couple of boxes, really, one that it would get investment cash flowing into energy projects to get more energy projects off the ground for to supply much needed energy to the european union. country also that it would help the european union take some of it or meet some of the climate goals that it's set. the commissioner in charge of these type

of things outlined exactly why they've gone down this route. we need to use all the tools that are disposal to achieve climate neutrality. we putting in place strict conditions for their inclusion. they're subject to clear limits and phase out periods will start with those likely to be pretty quickly pleased with they saw france and germany will start with paris and swell front generates just over 70 percent of its electricity from nuclear power. well, they may well just become one of the greenest countries in the european union if this eventually goes through because of their use of nuclear, it's also likely to be quite well received here in berlin. germany does use an awful lot of gas to generate electricity and awful lot of renewables as well. but gas is seen very much, is the bridging fuel as they try and transfer more and more towards renewables. the gulf stream to gas pipelines be much talked about, thus infrastructure project between germany and russia,

looking more and more important. should this plan go through and gas ultimately be designated on that green feel? we'll see more more investment towards gus in and across the european unity. and i said, not everybody was happy though and had into this meeting on wednesday. we heard from austria, denmark, sweden, and the netherlands all saying they didn't want that. the gas added to the list, there's also a whole host of environmental groups as well. he say this is essentially just moving the gold post to fit what you want to hear and what you want to see and amount to little more than greenwashing. the complimentary delegate to that table by the european commission sacrifices the scientific integrity of the taxonomy on the altar of fossil gas and nuclear lobbies. while there's still a few hoops to for this to jump through before it could come into force. in fact, there was some questions, put the money out and again, as the commissioner about potential legal challenges from so many states, no confirmation or not of yet,

but it does have to go before the lead is of the 27 members of the european union. once it gets passed there, which it looks like it will, it goes to the european parliament, weigh more than half of any piece have to vote in favor of it. right now. it does seem like it would squeak by us looking at probably quite a few months though before we see these new rules come into place and we see gas or some gas projects and nuclear power labeled as green energy projects by the european union. we spoke with german economists, fulter helmer, who says the europe screen transition will mean higher electricity consumption, which can't be provided with that gas. so nuclear power, i think the green transition is right to follow. but what we have to be in mind is that all measures we tank by politicians within the european union in the european states, is to increase the use of electric electricity by

electron a, tronic vehicles, whatever. and that means that we will need more energy. we need, if you take the forecasts of the international energy agency until 2050 roughly the same amount of fossil fuels than currently. and in that respect, we have to understand that in order to have a proper transition, we need the old economy for a certain time. we need fossil fuels, we need nuclear energy in order to set up the allocation for capital for it. for this green transition, i think that's a point that is not being understood. we need a pragmatic approach. and what we hear from those, we're criticizing the current state of affairs. of those we're rather following ideologies, rather than pragmatic approaches. critics have rounded on the anti defamation league for taking a swipe. it will be goldberg, the t. v post. now to goes outrage recently by saying the holocaust had nothing to

do with race when the head of the a d. l which fights anti semitism picked her up on that he seems to forgotten his own website. definition of racism uploaded just last month, which appears to justify goldbergs fees, the marginalization and a repression of people of color based on a socially constructed racial hierarchy that privileges white people. unfortunately, it is not surprising that will be goldberg is confused about racism in the jewish people when the 80 l just change the definition, the are new definition causes tremendous confusion and damage to countering ju hate . we see that here. why is the ideal mad at ruby gold birds, holocaust comments? she was just using its new definition of racism, marginalization and flash, or oppression of people of color to benefit white people. anti defamation league corrected would be goldberg now who's going to correct the anti defamation league? goldberg was suspended from a tv job over holocaust fees until january,

the ideal had a different definition of racism more in line with critics of go book. but the updated version seems to agree with her by maintaining racism is something that only happens to people of color. danielle is now referred you to a more encompassing definition saying racism as a matter of discrimination based on race or ethnicity. we got reaction to the whole episode from terry gibson, who's running to be new york state governor. i think it's very hypocritical when they change their lives matter. so call people call us definition they put out there and by the c o to come out and make a statement against the goal, which was because she was wrong. but she clearly ally and well, the 80 and they should go back in all searching themselves before they dump out and make a statement of what she said because she's definitely reshay company here. and

i'll tell you right up to date sal return with more lots of stores in 30 minutes. mm mm. bring you the very latest every out the day. this is our national from everyone here with humanity always wants the impossible. they 1st date 8 say to the government, police probably you government b. they say similar to any italy or please don't touch my,

my private life won't touch my business. don't watch my freedom. and this is an impossible contradiction. ah well come to the alex salmon. sure. where we examine with a highly infectious oma conveyance of novel corona virus, is really proving a blessing in disguise. when the african sciences discovered on a convenient, late last year, they quickly follow up with empirical and detailed clinical observations that the vacant in my old and its impact compared with us delta arrival. however, it was only when their findings were confirmed by 2 studies in the u. k. that

governments throughout the west and both started to discuss treating on record like the flute of relaxing social restrictions despite. so in case numbers aren't of living alongside divided. so it's on a controversy in the her community that the pot she worldwide vaccination program has failed to provide. or is it a collective base of wishful thinking, which could lead humanity open to further new and more deadly variance? today we ask to talk doctors, doctor, and we could see in south africa, i'm professor human coming in the u. k. both with hands on experience of corporate patients for their of you on whether a crown is proving a blessing or a curse. but 1st, do you treat the most i message is in response to i special show last think. celebrating scotlands national by robert brains. first from india by who says really enjoyed this episode. and while i always knew robbie burns is recognized and celebrated worldwide underestimated it. when i listened to billy case history of

robbie burns and was fascinating. and then john says in reference for that famous poem thomas chapter. i only by and recently the cutty, sorry was the name of the which i thought it was the horse. jordan. shirley says, i don't think that's been a program on burns covering the mind and his influence in such depth and with such a varied content. congratulations on the issue. invited me, let me talk in relation to alex and not me says, you're looking very smart to be no less than the average highest we'd expect. of course if being addressed. now doctor, i'm to, we could see short to international prominence when in mid november last year she alerted her countries authorities that in her deep practice in pretoria, she was to take patience with unusual cooper, 19 symptoms. quickly south out the confines, this identified the new on the convenience and ported it to the world health organization. on the 24th of november alex.
