12:08 pm
problems facing developing countries. the comments were made during a 2 day virtual summit with over a $120.00 nations in attendance. be blown out global. i isn't that big. russ, but it be and bag being did. when a d i. d o. in shaw, we've won. i. ruins sent the global i use. the indian prime minister also announced plans to unite the global south humanitarian efforts to combat the effects from natural disasters and crises. meanwhile, indians taught diplomat know to be significant damage caused by globalization and called for more unity among developing countries. many eva, pacing unsustainable debt and viable projects, trade barriers, contracting, financial close,
12:09 pm
and climate mish. though this was added the devastation of the call with funding and the discriminatory practices which characterized no business. it's, it stop lea exposed the dangers of over centralized globalization and underlying much it was a reminder that the mall democratic, unequal vote can only be built on greater diversification and localisation. saying no to bob concentration or any time in the world to be political or economic . and that's the whole idea behind this summit, which is organized by india, this to the summit, which is b 120, held, where over 200 countries all participating. don't dwell more on the changing world order and creating a new world where the voice of the global south is human equal importance. now,
12:10 pm
as far as these countries in the global south concern developing countries, the countries that are largely non presented on powerful platforms. their issue was their concerns need to be hard and that's what india is doing. they've been impacted by the fam demik in the last couple of deals. also the conflict and ukraine and the subsequent sanctions on moscow has made things very difficult for many of these countries. food crisis, energy crises, sports. eliza crises are, of course something that these countries happen for you think perhaps much more than the rest of the world. but there one says on not being heard and that's what india is doing. none of this is called the attention that it dissolves in global costs. but not the nations is concerned of frozen 1945 invented mechanism is simply unable to articulate the wider concerns. some
12:11 pm
apollo beach singularly focused on their own little bondage to the exclusion of the well being locked into that minute. so the view was concerns perspective and priorities, all of the global se, developing countries, and that india haskell e t a the in the today's session which is organized will be little presented at the g. 20 summit in september with a war lea does. a will be hosted by india and, and that's the whole idea behind the summit. the duty summit, which has been held by india the u. k. should get rid of his colonial mindset. thus, the message from china's foreign ministry, which lashed out at a recent report by london, criticizing beijing's policy on hong kong. you're not with regular hong kong has long been returned to china and hong kong affairs are purely the internal affairs
12:12 pm
of china, which allow no room for foreign interference. we urge the u. k. to recognize reality, trends let go of its colonial mindset and respect china's sovereignty and unity. the u. k. government report claims freedoms are being eroded by the chinese government in hong kong, alleging authorities systematically cracked down on free speech. forcing the closure of independent news outlets. hong kong was handed over to china by the u. k . i k. 1997. the city was guaranteed a high degree of autonomy and freedom of speech and a principle of one country to systems. then in 2020 beijing imposed a national security law to punish terrorism, treason, subversion, answer session with possible life imprisonment, which has been met with criticism from the west. with that in mind, human rights watch is now sounding in the alarm of violations in the u. k. itself in 2022, we saw the most significant assault on human rights protections in the u. k. in
12:13 pm
decades. from your right to protest, your ability to hold institutions accountable, fundamental and hard one rights of being systematically dismantled. the report was highlighted several new law introduced in 2022 that we can human rights protections in the u. k. for example, some measure strips the right for the fall of the cars and other vulnerable groups, while others limited judicial oversight, restricted the freedom to peacefully protest. let's discuss this further. now let's cross live it to all guest alexander mackay political analyst and it's a red star radio many thanks for joining us on the program. nice to see this evening, said alexander, according to human rights watch. as we heard 2022 was the worst year for human rights protection in the u. k. in decade. so why now with london so focused on hong kong when it's its own country thing, it's biggest decline in civil liberties in decades. because the, the good old fashioned british standard when it comes to human rights nikki,
12:14 pm
is never apply to yourself that which you seek to apply to your enemy. and the doctrine of human rights, particularly human rights, as applied to the international relations arena, is always one that is only going one way when it comes to the standard supply from the british government. the british government is still somewhat so we say saw having to give up hong kong all the way back in 1997 with the disturbances in hong kong, which the chinese authorities blamed on outside interference from united states and britain with a degree of justification, the british sought to weaponized the protest in hong kong to try and disrupt the governance of the age of china to try and cause problems to the chinese government . and the doctrine of human rights was their way of actually doing that was their way of propagandizing amongst these protesters in hong kong to try and win them over to being more influenced by the british government. but of course,
12:15 pm
as you point out, the human rights watch report points out. this is all entirely hypocritical, of course, because it's not just in 2022 when it's been about year for human rights in britain . there's been repressive legislation passed against protest passed in the name of suppose it anti terrorism, making it easier for the security services to suppress the free speech imprisoning this and all of that has been going on in britain for well over 20 years now. since even before the events of september, the 11th 2001. so for the british government to criticize anybody in the world when their own record on this has been criticized heavily by human rights bodies. going back over multiple governments with 20 years. it's just a matter of hypocrisy, and of course, it's a matter of using human rights to try and attack war. china now that china is, according to the prime minister, richie soon act a designated enemy of grip. what do you think the attorneys foreign ministry is
12:16 pm
right? where it says the u. k is holding onto this historical colonial. mine says while the colonial mindsets, all of the u. k. government really has left nicky last perpetually in colonial nostalgia, even when nations to become independent. the british government still seeks to dominate them through economics and trade and cultural suppression as well. so very much there is the colonial mindset when it comes to hong kong. many people inside the corridors of power in london haven't got over having to leave hong kong as yet, and they haven't also accepted the fact that the world is changing all around them . they can't get over the fact that they're having to deal with a chinese government that they have to take seriously and treat as an equal. they don't like doing that when it comes to the indian government either. and we, we've seen how they react to the russian government over the last few years. and
12:17 pm
these are people trying to cling onto a world in which it is uni polar. meaning that is, it is one that is organized around the priorities of the united states with britain as the united states is loyal subjects. and now that that is receding, they are lashing out all over the place and desperately trying to clean onto it. rather than adapt to this new reality, they are trying to retreat into a, an imaginary past london in washington, a frequently being accused by beijing of interfering in china, domestic policies and affairs when it comes to hong kong. and taiwan especially, is about human rights. a tolo is the western countries have oh terry motives. it's not about human rights at all. it's about power and it's about the world order as it stands. and as, as it is changing. and the seeking of the british and the american governments to try and resist any way they can and human rights language and criticisms dressed in
12:18 pm
the language of human rights in one way they seeks try and damage china on the propaganda level. and it's also a way of trying to undermine chinese sovereignty of the sovereignty of any government that they've designated enemy by trying to insert more british government sponsored non governmental organizations into china and other countries to try to spread british influence. when we know very well that a lot of these n jose have been used by britain and america for the purposes of espionage activities and intelligence gathering activities and propaganda activities. so human rights is just a language. it's a, it's a piece of branding. it's a piece of propaganda that we never apply in britain. the british government never applies it to the relationships they have in the world for over 80 years, nearly a century now, for the british government has been reliant upon a very close relationship with saudi arabia,
12:19 pm
for the exercise of british influence in the middle east on of course, the exercise of influence over the oil trade. the saudi arabian record on human rights is worse than any country. the britain criticizes pruitt's releases for the foreign office like china, or russia or india. and we have that same relationship with other countries historically as well as the britain had a long relationship with the side south africa. didn't give up that until right at the end of the 1918 for all that embrace of nelson mandela. later on, all the various various repressive regimes in south america like the pen to shake government that britain had very close relationships with and indeed sold alms to. so this concern over and writes the so called concern. nice, never present when there is money to be made in steel or an oil deal, or when british influence can be extended via dealing with the dictatorship no matter how repressive it is. and if i'll finish on this point, they,
12:20 pm
this never occurred to anybody. when of course, tony blair, the full british prime minister was making millions of pounds, providing services to all kinds of dictatorships and repressive regimes all over the world, acting as a sort of unofficial envoy of the british government. and this is a man whose entire career was dotted with hypocritical language about human rights . so the human rights can, evaporates like water on a frying pan whenever there's a few pounds of steak. so alex, on the if 2022 was the worst. if human rights protection in the u. k. in decades, how do you see been next year 20 but this year, putting out well being about the same or even worse, to be honest because 2022 stood out because there was a series of repressive pieces of legislation passed regarding protest um regarding asylum seekers but britain is out on the polling record on civil liberties for a very long time, nicky, we are imprisoning right now. the british government holds in prison. julian
12:21 pm
a sons for the crime of reporting things that were true. he is locked up in a maximum security prison in london called bel nash. and he has been in prison there for over 2 years now before that he was a involuntarily detained in a foreign embassy. and that's the persecution of a man for exercising free speech. for believing in the citizens right to know what his government is doing. so it's an appalling track record on free speech of the british government has. and as i said previously, we have passed legislation restricting protest over and over again for the house of commons. and house of lords that severely restricts the british citizens right to demonstrate in a way that would make a protest effective. and this legislation has been topped up every year since the early 2 thousands. the various anti terrorism acts enable trials to be held in secret for people not to be presented with the evidence that is being held against
12:22 pm
them for house arrest on the very dubious conditions. there is a program which seeks to turn public sector work is not just police or security officials into informants for the states called the prevent program. and all of this is just added to every single year. it doesn't matter which party is empower conservative all labor. the only out so they have to anything regarding protest is more repressive legislation and did just this week, richie soon, i can the business secretary grant shops, unveiled new anti strike laws to be targeted at labor unions in this country. and that's how they respond to the strikes of a hey, in the public sector in the transport saturate britain, it's by passing more anti stripe legislation on top of 40 years of anti labor union legislation that we've got in this conflict. we have by the boasting of tony blair himself, some of the most repressive anti labor laws in the entirety of europe. so for the
12:23 pm
british government go round, criticizing anybody else. i mean, they should, any other country should do what the chinese did and just laugh the british government out of the country because they are not worth taking seriously on this point. alexander mackay political alliston that is a red star radio many thanks to join you guys appreciate your time. thank you. ah to palestine now why 3 more locals have been killed by israeli troops in the last 24 hours during security rates in the west bank. oh, countries have i wrapped it in palestinian city? the thousands of residents down to the funeral of those killed warners talk to the streets, waving flags and chanting slogans. 41 year old man's kill trying to stop is waiting . so just attaining his son. another demonstration was seen in the palestinian at
