ah, activists have taken to the streets of paris to express their solidarity with migrants . this comes as the leaders of france and the u. k. how they summit with the refugee crisis on the top of the agenda. we heard from some locals who say, current policies can i mean seeing the new policies that have been put in place by the government in u. k. and the reason why they're coming here today, we have to fight back. we have to defend human rights. we have to actually find a solution to what is happening. i mean, we have 30 years of the situation that is going on at the border. we have people dying, we have people suffering, and at the moment everyone is pushing to bull, one to each other, without never looking for an actual solution. who claims, we'll just leave horribly. the border issue on the table today is of concern to both france and britain, but in fact, it's an issue for all of your other people are dying in the mediterranean sea.

they're not welcomed anywhere, but the united kingdom is still for these people. their last hope instead of creating safe routes and welcoming people with dignity, we try and stop them with military installations with dogs, with drones, and with front acts. all these measures, in fact, don't prevent people from crossing the border, but puts them at a higher risk when doing so, and generates more smuggling networks. mom that is with that as the u. k has seen a dramatic increase in the number of migrants crossing over from france. the government's come up with a new policy called the illegal immigration bill, while the plan is set to stop those coming over by boat. some of the wording use has been called into question. prime minister richie soon act posted the national campaign slogan that margaret would be denied access to the u. k. as modern slavery system. a prominent host at the b. b. c took to twitter, comparing the government's plans and some of the language used to germany's

migration policies of the 19 thirty's. there is no huge influx. we take for fuel refugees and other major european countries. this is just an immeasurably cruel policy directed at the most vulnerable people in language that is not dissimilar to that used by germany in the 30s. and i'm out of order. the legendary footballer gary linux is now a major star at the broadcaster, but he since been suspended by the corporation which said his social media activity breached it's impartiality guidelines. the decision to remove him sparked a boycott, not only by his coast, but also there are potential replacements. and he's not the only one who's questioning the governments campaign. gonna get me some slaves before us legal. the government take control. so came by saying, if you get people here, there will health, no protection from slavery and unforgivable message,

a sentence would change the country and everything. it stands for. this is absolutely disgraceful. complete application of humanity. you're just going to see how can you recognize the war one is levy calling from? do you renting a stock or do you know about more than slippery mill? dad? dad is in the organization by the published by the show that there's something or what else? literally on it exist. this is a war on is colonel m lots of potential. got you so condescending one tomorrow is like a kind of a short down of humanity for them to wanted to supposed to be the lights on the illumination of the human civilization. these are running british, we're going to be part of the initial, pending short on these words opinion for you. i'm do have you know more worth

privately when you've got time. mr. got to go read our radio editor and political analyst alexandra mckay told us suspending the b. b. c. host once more proves that there is no free speech in the u. k. the problem is of course the britain. although the british government likes to lecture everybody on free speech, we don't have free speech in this country. not really. there's been people who been fined and imprisoned for tweets that have been questioning the narrative around the roofing from cove it to the ukraine war. now finally, somebody who is very high profile has or has now been targeted for cancellation because of the views that they have expressed. maybe see is a state broadcaster, it generally takes its line from the government not directly, but indirectly. though sometimes the government likes to of what is happening now, but to call independent is, was over 20 years ago of water shortages. greenpeace reports that millions of

people have seen their taps run dry, as right away in now shrinking reservoir, that you're all away off. it's the fact that water is life yet, so this, the vital natural resource is being depleted. it's been polluted and miss manners. official says, disruptions to water reservoirs is causing more water related disaster on try the whole day. we, when get worse, remo you'd go to, i can come back, want and would still not be back again. if school is ashley mars i my little by, for me, the crisis is bad because my business needs water. we can't cook, we can wash, we can clean, as you can see for yourself, we're not operating. we can do anything that you've been doing along on. but even based kids go to school without eating a bad thing because fact that god, government at the moment is struggling with a lot of service delivery issues. surround abstract energy platforms are unstable and it's also well known trek there to our water and wastewater and

regulation systems, all dilapidated failing. and the severe pressure have been under capitalized and then in many ways all just functional. so all things being, well, i do not see the scrutiny around. in fact, i see an accelerated right of collapse coming. and i see ultimately this is very lucky to trigger abreast lesson risk. let's go to ripley across the country, and i'm afraid this is where we're hitting quite interesting to know that in the case of load sharing, alternative sources of energy can be made accessible, but what water alternative sources may not be as accessible all available. this means that the situation of war to city or shortage, and breaking news and updates had over to r t dot com. and be sure to follow up on all social media platforms. again, we'll see a back at the top of the hour. ah

ah ah . oh they are seldom phenomena of things that black and white in

nature. but the western approach to anything internal, personal, interpersonal, or interstate relationship is one of the black and white realities. there are many, many shades of both different colors, different states, and other chinese philosophy approach. to the east, you know, if we are different we can work together. ah ah

ah, you know with with .
