during transportation and cruel obliteration of rebellion, this ruthless people trade practiced by the leading european countries took away tens of millions of african lives. the organisation of united nations classifies that trans atlantic slave trade as one of the gravest human rights abuses in the history of humanity. this is the biggest act of deportation of people ever seen by mankind. who is the aggressor today? i'm authorizing additional strong sanctions. today, russia is the country with the most sanctions imposed against it. a number that's constantly growing. figure fisher, literally when was the course renewed as you speak on the bill in your city, mostly mine or wish you were banding all imports of russian oil and gas. new g,

i g, with the literature with joe by imposing these sanctions on russia has destroyed the american economy. you. so there's your boomerang itself. in the west, it's called a marriage of convenience, but for russia and china, their relationship is strategic. and an alternative to the west, so called the rules based order. what the west refuses to recognize the russians in the chinese practice, and it's called multi polarity. the hello, i'm manila chan you are tuned into modus operandi. so he has no political pedigree . is a child of immigrants to the u. k. he's

a political science as the youngest prime minister in modern british history, but is re, she's to knox, rise to power as storied as base say. this week we'll take a look at the 1st person of color to hold the prime minister ship in the u. k. all right, let's get into the low. the me . in the fall of 2022, the u. k was reeling from the death of their beloved queen elizabeth and skyrocketing inflation met with tumble in the market as tore pm liz trust implemented a disastrous financial plan for britain. she resigned from her post just 6 weeks after replacing forest johnson as prime minister. so who's in 10 downing street now? none other than the man who lost to liz truss re she's soon act. now the child,

the immigrants of indian heritage is heralded by the media as sort of this immigrant rags to riches fairy tale an image concocted by a team of p. r. people to downplay his immense wealth and privilege as a child of a successful dr. father and mother who was not only a pharmacist, but she owned the pharmacy chain. well healed. indeed, soon as i grew up to attend private schools, elite universities such as oxford and stanford in california, where he met his heiress wife. he then went on to have a successful career at goldman sachs before trying his hand at politics in just 2015 a 1st time m p in 25th to take the seat as p. m. in 2022. thank you so much, but so next story is less of a rise to the top rather more of a tail of last man standing or worse flim pickens.

to shed more light on this will turn to the former scottish m p. he's now the chairman of the hope over fear grassroots independence campaign in scotland. mr. tommy sheridan is joining us now. so 1st, tommy, thank you for being with us. richie soon acts ascension 2, p. m is lottery as a win for diversity, or even colonialism coming full circle with him. you know, being the 1st person of color to hold this position. the press. harold in his story drive. he himself fancies this blanket, child of immigrant story, but that's not the whole picture. is it? can you fill us in a bit on mr. soon. x background or his origin story? it's important that everyone understands that red cheat should. i doesn't represent the average emigrant to the u key. he as a success story for the experience of emigration to the your director.

she should like as a man barn inch of privilege and loving. and i believe this is a man who attended a boarding school as a youngster, a boarding school that costs almost 50000 owens a year to attend the overwhelming majority of families across the u. k. don't am anywhere near 50000 pounds, but that's, that's mine was able to half his dot p to have them educated. that wouldn't change the boarding school, a private school near to where he was born and showed hampton in the social cost of england. the mine was born and a privilege, and a man represents privilege. he as no average emigrant story, average emigrants suffer from discrimination,

suffer from low income suffer from hosing. this is a man who has never known any of those problems and f, any of the years wish to can so venue from 2007. they will see this young, fresh, bushy tailed, richie sherlock bell, every one in b, b. c. documentary that he had many friends that were upper class and out of stock chrissy and he says and some working class and laughs and says, well, not walked in class. but then goes on to tell everyone that he goes to state schools to lecture people about the 2 could go to oxford and cambridge just lake hadn't even though he went there from a private boarding school costing almost $50000.00 pounds a year. the mine is privilege personifying,

this is not a story of an average american yuki watching his weight to the fault. this is a mind borne enter privilege and represent stop privilege. and unfortunately, he has governing on behalf of the privileged and society. critics compare his victory to that of barack obama here in the states and say his prime minister ship will do as much for race relations. immigration class struggle as much as obama's presidency did for solving and racism in america. your thoughts on that? will anyone who suggests that the election over that you should not convey you key will do as much for race relations as the election of bartok obama and america. they really have to ask themselves the asking the right question.

because truthfully, do we really think that the election of barack obama has done anderson to solve racial tensions and discrimination and racism within the united states of america? i don't think so. i think that is clear evidence that racism has go wash, not better. and when you consider the disappointment that barak obama representative for many, many of the supporters, many people thought that he was going to call on behalf of the majority, not the corporate minority. and sadly, they were let don't because bought a bama. he said that was going into just made the catch that was one of these back platforms, universal healthcare, for every american citizen, the righteous country in the world. and they can't afford to give universal health care is absolutely unforgivable. a bought

a car bama all shall present these over the largest number of bombings of muslim countries and planted. thus, mine who was a sensibly amount of peace, actually as guilty of dropping more bombs than even bomb or bush before him. i'm so bike a bomb up was that disappointment in terms of the aspirations of many black americans and those who believed in peace across the planet. and richie shook will do absolutely nothing to improve diversity, a race relations and the key because the mind stands for the establishment, he stands for the status quo. he stands for changing absolutely nothing as far as discrimination, racism, poverty,

and quality as concerned. all of those indicators within the u. k. have gone wash, and the last 12 years of 40 government and they will continue to get wash eyes richie should not governs for the wretch and the privilege you know. the tory popped into you key has been described accurately as the high, you know, poppy because if you study high, you notice the mama was the high, you know, mama, you will see that the 3 on the sick, on the vulnerable, on the old as i you know is do, and natural, the tory does what it said. the 5 and society are party that freeze on the week. the vulnerable, the old rich you should look, represent stop party and he will do nothing to improve society

for those of color or the did risha soon acts eventual when of the pm's chair come as a last resort. and by that, i'm referring to the run off between he and liz truss. after boris johnson step down, liz trust defeated sue neck, only to step down a few weeks later did sooner when only because, and i'm going to put it bluntly. there were no other horses left in the stable. the victory of richie should not into some context. for viewers. we have the key button. what has 3 that involves an understanding, thou one, tame, to stubs of the world? what under the use of british imperialism breton was the dominant of

on the planet? no, it's important that context is born and maimed. when you then look at the election in 2019 of boris johnson to become the play minister of the yuki waters. johnson, as a buffoon, of the highest order, boris johnson as a pathological liar. whose allies have been well documented all across the british press for many, many years. a man who lost several jobs as a columnist and an alarm squeals for telling lies a man who had to resign because of the lazy, tall, did british public, a boat,

every one else keeping cove and rules and regulations. apart from him. a man who was telling ordinary families that they couldn't visit sick relatives in hospital and care homes are a man who told families that they couldn't end funerals for loved ones while he was plotting behind. number in and in pinging as f. life was just as joyous as it always has been for that bumbling buffoon. she represented the my opinion that up. so look decrepit, b t off button, the imperialist nation. it summed up just how low but i had sunk. and the world that we were represented by somebody like bought us johnson, and everyone thought that's is the was that get kind of get it was on this. and

then last thrust came along. a lovely one thought, oh we were broke and reckons went from bought us the buffoon to all as the app. so look, let me who doesn't have a low what's going on? well the dish new year on you, your a women who was completely and utterly of dex and became the shorter sampling, brackish play minister and history. you have that as the context for reggie should arc reggie should i wasn't all they did by by the black. each people did become yeah. and he was rejected even by that. a minority that pop membership represents. he was rejected by them in favor of last cross. imagine lucia that contains the less less and yeah,

that's what read. she should like that he was eventually allowed to take the range because and i think the expression you've used there been no more hosses table. it's quite a good one. certainly is the truth that the tory party as an institution as decaying by the d. and richey should like being in place will not address the absolute destruction of that party as are viable or permit of the next election. i don't particularly re key astound mom. i think your stand as a tory in disguise, but he will when by default, not because in the family because people cannot stomach any more of the forty's. after 12 years of economic ruination and corruption,

which has been amongst the washed and british political history. all right, tommy sheridan don't go anywhere. they're still so much more to unpack here. coming up next, we'll examine why reaching soon acts policies from domestic issues like pay inequality to nato. ukraine is really just more of the same. we'll discuss it when we return, said type, the ammo will be right back. ah ah, ah ah ah, ah, with

ah, with operation the aerodynamic began shortly after world war 2 and lost it almost 3 decades. it wasn't a major effort to try and split the ukraine off from the soviet union, u. s. intelligence. together with hypnos, executioners drained hundreds of saboteurs to be deployed in the soviet union restore christ was on the east of alberto. so we'll have started with this with georgia store, which was you in service shoes more than yes. today, security service of ukraine use is not only the statistic methods, but also the ideology of the nationalist a

with welcome back to the m. o. i'm manila jan. so the old saying goes new boss, same as the old boss. will this be applicable to richie soon? neck tommy sheridan is re joining us. thank you for sticking around, tommy. so 2022 proved to be a pretty wild year for the u. k. a revolving door at 10 downing street, the death of the queen energy prices, skyrocketing inflation, exploding yet with each successive pm who steps in the more financial commitment made pay aiding the kiev regime in this proxy, nato war, re, she's to knock was believed to be a fiscal conservative and was expected to implement more practical financial

policies, yet he's doubling down on the very financial commitments that his predecessor born johnson made to ukraine. now, the type of monetary promises that lad, mr. soon act to resign as johnson's exchequer. how do you square his priorities sooner than the british establishment as a whole, are determined to maintain their support for the natal proxy war and ukraine. and number one, of course, is to provide cover for all of the problems that the british population face. you see the u. k as in the up of the was them felician for almost 50 years. the u. k. has a standard of living crisis. that means the standard of living is expected to fall by a full 7 percent over the next 12 months. we have food places at the highest level

in terms of advance places. we have energy, places that are on, on affordable. we have what cars being forced to big part and straight actions. hundreds of thousands, millions of what cars are going to be forced to takes big action the voted the voting for and the post to industry and the kitchen and health and transport. all cross the yuki what? because i've been forced to fight bike or what is the response of the government or nothing to do is there's no fault gulf, as there was a new korean in the past, few russians blame the russians. so as it's very convenient for the brace, stablish to continue this coverage. and so or for the proxy war and your team because it gives them a bookmark, it gives them some victim blame for the problems. and the 2nd reason, of course, the maintain the support as because british aerospace and all of the la bank

armaments companies are making packet, making a packet of this war just as they have done in relation to the horrible, horrible friday. a conflict in yemen which is destroy dot country has introduced the biggest humanitarian disaster on the planet. just know are moments which have been supplied to short. the several 1000000000 pounds was abundant when supplied and all done for that particular point to be executed as disgraceful. and protected, and america obtained up to 12 is ratio soon, actually use here a boon for the u. k. you know, having a young pair of eyes at 10 downing street or will his age proved to be a liability, especially on the global stage. because by contrast, us president joe biden is approximately twice his age is quite clear to most

independent observe those of politics across the world that by the chain you've reached into your eighty's and you've been around the electrical shock up for as long as job by the eyes staying to hang up the political, i add joe biden, and my opinion is if he has the answer to america's problems, then they are asking the wrong questions to begin with. because the mind does not represent the future of america, doesn't speak up often with people across america. this is a mind who was going to his way to under maine, the positive progress of policies of the late sabelle nissan. those were family sandals, was talking about universal, medicare for all would be on the sandals, was talking a cancellation of a student tuition fees to left so many millions of the poverty that know read

because of trying to pay off student dressing fees when bailey sandals was talking about a minimum wage of $15.00, i know to try and tackle which poverty, jo bivens are typed up, one of those policies. he has refused to embrace any of those policies you'll buy them, has continued to govern, more or less in the same vein. i've donald trump, that on this george bush that before him and alma wants, nothing is changing as far as us society, as can see, the wretch, our big coming, even more seemingly wretch. whereas the pool of the is getting becker and becker. that's why problems in america are growing. in my opinion, the divisions in america are growing on day as a country that is very much of war with itself. i think the age of

jewel biden doesn't help that, but more important than he's each is what he stands for. this is a man who was behind the illegal invasion of a right. that's a mind to been behind. supporting tax breaks for the multi national corporations in america, but not supported a loving minimum wage for all the nu, what cars and america. so it's not job biden's age. that's the i guess problem why he stands for. this is the biggest problem and that's the same in the you came, was wretched tonight. circling back to soon acts, indian heritage soon act is thereby asian. will his ethnicity be reflected in his foreign policy towards the global south or will his financial status cloud, his decision making abilities, especially since he's now been quoted as calling china and russia the enemy of the

u. k. dish the, the election of richie should, i think, will change britain's colonialist imperialist, chauvinistic attitude, asia, and china are deluded. this man has recently ought to be the end of the year of port build relations with jane of this month. i've done his duty and been obedient to his bosses in america who have been trying to work up until rushing, feeling, anti chain of feeling and seattle, ron feeling for many, many years now. because the want to sheep the world, the way they see it, which is all about the free market output, the lives them and the success and promotion of business are all cost. that's the most important thing in the world. and what will happen under rich,

you should act as breton will continue to be a colonial, a ruler and chauvinistic country as far as asia, as far as india, as far as pakistan as can see him. you know, people ought to just pause for a moment and try and think about what a lot of women said. and 1979 when message capture was elected, the new u t. a lot of women thought or greece, the 1st women pray managed out a need, your kid that is great for women rates. this is great for the advancement of women . at was an absolute stuff for women. why? because she introduced policies that what are both economists division, she along the way geez, of all the new people, she at the set goes that most women, what then the adding say goes, what did that mean?

amend them more and more women were driven into poverty and despair spent the fight . but she was a woman play minister and that is the same story. the hush to be applied richie, should not. he has a man of color. he has a mind rizza, a heritage. yeah. his parents and grand evans and dea and pakistan. but you have a situation where he represents nothing more and nothing less than the chauvinistic british colonialism that breton has always embodied. all right, unfortunately i have to leave that right there, tommy sheridan. thank you so much for this conversation and that is going to do it for this weeks episode of modus operandi the show that dig deep into foreign policy on your host manila chan. thank you for tuning and we'll see you again next week to figure out the amount ah

ah, ah, this is the ancient lake by call more specifically, the island of poland, also known as the heart of by called, straight away. you can feel something mystical tear a place of unique traditions, an amazing mix of cultures and peoples, but what makes this place so appealing? we're going to speak to some of the most prominent locals of all phone. can uncover some of the secrets. a government has been killing its own people and on bass ideas. it's amazing of mission not being covered in western media and hasn't been covered for the last 8 years. i'm here for 5 minutes and then i'm told the 1st 5 people

they found it was 5 decapitated heads provided up in a quarterly request on demand a boy, fos get that it kind of gives me no fight. but to say keep these on your kid. the v v information will almost all the independent journalists pointed out that nato and the u. s. were directly responsible for initiating the military conflict and ukraine, all casualties of it as long as we want the war to continue. we will fight that more using craniums as proxies and we will fight it to the last ukrainian death. that's what's happened in dumbass this whole time. this is, these aren't objects, these are people. and so that's why i do what i do. that's why i'm here.

ah, ah, the french president dismisses the nationwide protesting goal thing. his country over pension reform, calling the public voice illegitimate. but that's rock demonstrations in other countries. have his full support with tick tock comes under the scrutiny of the us congress as washington fears beijing could be using the popular app to spy on us citizens. this by no tangible evidence being presented by officials also ahead years ago. do not expect transparency. and these investigations nor the general public to get acquainted with its results. russia's foreign minister says he doesn't expect western investigations into the north.
