so my question is — what happens from hereon in to anglo—irish relations?o ireland for the first ever state visit by a royal and in return, a couple of years, our president michael d higgins visited the uk. it was a really special couple of years. we saw irish people happily supporting the english soccer team. i cheered with greatjoy to see an irishman lift the cricket world cup for england a couple of weeks ago. we can get back to a very good place. now is a difficult time, but the one thing i'll say is our ministers and politicians are talking more now than they have over the past two decades. the tanaiste had a particularly warm relationship with the former chancellor of the duchy of lancaster. hang on, i'm going to stop you, before you start... well, neale richmond, before you start painting some rosy picture of the future for anglo—ireland relations, let me put this to you. after what is potentially a no—deal brexit, then the eu has to decide whether to do a free—trade agreement the uk. you personally have suggested that's going to be be extraordinary

if my family were anglo-saxons the anglo-saxons wouldn't have driven my family off their land to go weste river shannon to farm rocks. you are officially kicked out of being irish. please, turn in your erin go bragh button, your notre dame pendant and your box of lucky charms. oh, yes. ( cheers and applause ) yes. >> jon: that stereotype, for real? >> stephen: stereotypes are true, jon. all we eat is lucky charms. ( laughter ) we make a spoon out of potato and eat our lucky charms. >> jon: i believe it. >> stephen: and from one american of irish ancestry to another, mr. kelly, we are not people of color. under this makeup, my skin tone is uncooked calamari, okay? ( laughter ) i am translucent. you shine a flashlight on me and a rainbow comes out the other side. ( laughter ) but perhaps the dullest knife in the republican drawer is presidential son and man who has got big gums and he cannot lie, eric trump. here is what eric told the fox & friends today. >> my father is in there and he's fighting every day, he has to fight against the media. and he has to fight against these lunatics and

anglo us relationship... brexit but if you can do these kind of trade deals is questionable. i don't think the wto... questionable. i don't think the wto. .. they would questionable. i don't think the wto... they would have something to say about it. the trouble with a trade deal as it can take years, as we have seen with canada and us deals have taken years. this would be quicker but presumably it still faces the potential stumbling block of the us congress, which has some say over trade policy and the fact that we'll be coming into a presidential election year? yes, there are still plenty of hurdles. he tried to play down some of the congress issues and what has been said about the irish border. i do think the idea of breaking it down into smaller parts, i think that's encouraging for the government and thatis encouraging for the government and that is because people have tried to say the reason the us trade deal wooden workers because he would have to have agriculture in it which would be tricky because of

week a military tribunals of the french majority status handed life sentences to 10 leaders from an anglo phone breakaway region activists warn that it will impede efforts to end the bloody conflicts made accusations of brazen human rights abuses against angle phone citizens. so you do everyone can understand a conviction if you're saying a fair trial but this has been fair trial with procedural violations from start to finish the way things are going the schools will close no one knows what will happen next with radicalization of young people and all these weapons around. and lawful killings and use of excessive force by government forces during security operations have been rife since the crisis started security forces seem to have little fear of what will happen as they commit brazen crimes against civilians. nearly half of all the schools closed across the region juta attacks threats of attack and increasing violence are located in the northwest in southwest cameroon 4437 schools there closed as of june 29th seen pushing more than 609000 children out of school well the current armed c

more to do with speed than the environment but the environment was the order of the day and leipsic anglo-american made it clear that climate friendly aviation can be a competitive advantage. then here in noir if we invest in new technologies and focus on modern aircraft with low noise levels and low emission engines the aviation industry can accept it and demand in competitiveness can be security. because one policy the german government wants to promote is the use of hydrogen powered aircraft the opposition green party is calling for higher taxes on jet fuel but the industry sees threats to its competitiveness which that is does of year it's important that the german aviation industry can compete and therefore we say we need internationally agreed aviation policy not national unilateralists. the german transport minister opposes any new taxes but he is considering raising the existing aviation tax. i agree with the aviation industry that we can talk about adjusting the levy which means we could use the extra revenue to invest in new technologies in order to look even if we missed you and the gov

the party of anglo-american things look even worse for the governing party in brandenburg the social democrats will talk to our correspondent in a moment of 1st this report on the political landscape in the key states of saxony and brown the. 2 eastern german states are going to the polls and the federal government is holding its breath as the surge of the far right populist a.f.d. could really shake things up saxony dresden is the capital germany's eastern most state has about $4000000.00 residents and is doing rather well economically with the auto industry and high tech but saxony has also developed a thriving right wing scene a year ago right wing extremists occupied the streets of chemists for days violent crime motivated by right wing extremism is that a record high. saxony is governed by a grand coalition of center right c.d.u. and center left s.p.d. on the party the c.d.u. has led the government here since german reunification it may remain the largest party but is said to lose votes especially to the far right populist a.f.d. and state premier may struggle to put together a

legal situation of course nikos i want to ask you a lot was made particularly in the british media of anglo michael suppose that a 30 day timetable that forced johnson then said he welcomed this blistering schedule she commented on that today she walked that back a little i want to play you what she said. was the month it would be better to say can be done by october 31st so it's not about 30 days it just means it can be achieved in a short period of time after all the u.k. says it wants to leave the e.u. on october 31st also. you because the reality is whatever happens whether it's 30 days or not it has to happen fast so how quickly do they have to come to an agreement to avoid a no deal brags that on october 31st. the 1st one that one has to make is that there has been an argument between. the u.k. and the other 27 governments this agreement has not been ratified by the by the parliament show. if they want to reinvent the wheel and to read i then let it drop the whole agreement i don't think that is enough bang they just time for some consummate saying this but that is not sufi seem time

that i would also like to talk to anglo-american in the nearest future even today if there's time and to agree on an emergency meeting we should stop telling each other that the normandy format meeting should take place at some time this year how many more people will die this year over in the. corner of ukraine's leader supported by emmanuel france is pushing to revive the talks known as the normandy format as a way of ending the simmering conflict. these came about in 2014 when the leaders of france germany ukraine and russia met on the sidelines of the 70th anniversary of the d.-day landings in normandy france the 4 way discussions helped to seal an agreement between the warring parties in 2015 this reduce the fighting but small scale clashes have continued. the result is that since the start of a still ities an estimated $13000.00 people have died. hoping to rein in the violence the normandy group met a number of times but the process has been stalled since 2016. now the french president is hoping to oversee efforts to restart the normandy format and to persuade me putin to join t

so he has more now from boris johnson anglo american on the irish backstop and the prospects of a new deal. yes of course i think there is ample scope to do a deal and diaby sprained i think pretty clearly what needs to happen we need to remove those elements of the of the withdrawal agreement that simply don't work for the u.k. i've spoken of the things that i think are sensible the protections of the rights of e.u. nationals but the the backstop that particular arrangement which i do think has grave grave defects for a democratic country a sovereign democratic country like the u.k. that plainly has to go but once we get rid of it if we can change it then i think there is the real prospect of making progress very rapidly indeed so that backstop has always only been a last resort we don't need this last resort. for saying we might find that agreement in the next 2 years but perhaps you will find it in the next 30 days why shouldn't we that would take us to a big step forward and we have to pull all the stars out and make sure we manage to do it however this does work on the assumption

situation of course nicholas i want to ask you a lot was made particularly in the british media of anglo american suppose that a 30 day timetable that forced johnson then said he welcomed this blistering schedule she commented on that today she walked that back a little i want to play you what she said. was the month it would be better to say can be done by october 31st so it's not about 30 days it just means it can be achieved in a short period of time after all the u.k. says it wants to leave the e.u. on october 31st also. you can see reality is whatever happens whether it's 30 days or not it has to happen fast so how quickly do they have to come to an agreement to avoid a no jail break that on october 31st. the 1st one that one has to make is that there has been an argument between. the u.k. and the other 27 governments this agreement has not been ratified by the by the parliament show. if they want to reinvent the wheel and to lead i then let it drive the whole agreement i don't think that is enough bang they did for some consummate saying this but there is not sufficient time to act

which would be considered a hard border between the island of ireland and northern ireland and then anglo-american it was also a similar thing and she. of course couldn't answer that straight because they taunt tons about because this whole area has not yet been agreed. and said you know the problem here is that you've got 2 positions of brics it and this good friday agreement and those 2 kind of clash and they have to come to a solution but she's clearly open to a solution and made that very clear to boris johnson but also on the issue made it clear about europe's position is ireland's position so.

were intellectually inferior to anglo-saxons.hese tests became the evence they have been looking for, really, for hundreds of yes to prove that people of color and poor people and women were intellectually inferior. amy: so explain what the college board has recentlynnounced, that they are adding in environmenental context dashboad for all students taking the sat's. what does this mean? >> i'm try to figure that out. one thing i think many college board -- some of these institutions that have been under fire by not only antiracist, but even parents who don't want their children being in these high-stakes testing environments. i ththk they're figuring out new ways to essentially maintain the existence of t these tests. certainly, this is a way to respond to those who are fundamentally pointing to the environmt as the problem and not necessarily the test taking. mayor de blasio has been attempting to eliminate the standardized tests because the number of african-americans and latinos admitted into the highly speciazed high school h

. >> yes, he said his driver 36- year-old anglo irish the hundred first airborne says she has tears in his eyes and said to her that it's hard to look a young american in the eyes and know you're sending that guy to his death >> i love him. i think there's a funny show, the charm, when you look at the original film it's blue eyes, the smile, not a moment of fear for the young americans. this great leader shows great confidence but he wasn't confident at all he had so many orders that he actually had to use the lead pencil he had a constant ringing in his right ear smoking 60 filter list cigarettes a day with little sleep basically a little rack so it's a class act but we needed to show confidence and because it was a risky operation, risky indeed . >> go to the phone lines, for those of you in eastern central timelines, mountain pacific and for those of you with world war ii relatives or doctrines 202- 748-8000 two -- 8002 . >> thank you for taking my call . >> i like to remark about the data my father went in on you david and he was watching in one instance that people focus on omaha

is incredible when you think about the fact that this was a state that provoked a war through armed anglon, and which continues after seizing texas from mexico, continued to dispossess, you know, formerly mexican latinos and tejanos of their land, of their possessions by force. and this, of course, is the background of texan history. and it really, i think, points out, again, the absurdity of this theory that really inverts the world we live in. when you read the el paso shooter's manifesto, he said i'm not instigating, this i am the virge i'm being forced to act. and you see this in a lot of white supremacist narratives today, and it really helps to explain not only the prevail answer of these three riis, the ways they tap into mainstream culture. you don't say you're the master race, you can say you're the victim of diversity or the victim of affirmative action, to feel this white resentment. but it also, it convinces these shooters they need to act. they are in the face of a catastrophe, a biological and genetic catastrophe that they need to confront. and this is part of what's behind

or at least boris johnson may want a deal but it's going to be an uphill struggle to get one from anglo merkel and the rest of the european union is not. well so it would seem interesting phrase ology used by boris johnson there that german phrase via shuff and thus we can do it of course that was the phrase that angular merkel used several years ago now referring to the refugee crisis that then pertains here in germany so hearing that sort of language used back to her as it were by mr johnson well that will have provoked a reaction from angela merkel clearly from his perspective optimism was the message he wanted to bring here with the right prevailing wind as it were with a shift in mentality from the european you he believes something could be done this was what angle america's more nuanced reply was when she was posed a similar question to save the banks of the say look folks was it the backstop has always been a fallback position if one is able to solve this kind if one finds the solution and we said we would probably find it in the next 2 years to come but we can also maybe find i

right so what is the german government actually doing about this little so far yesterday a chance that anglo metal reiterated that yes the german economy may be facing difficult times but she doesn't see the need for a stimulus program yet she says the government would act as the situation requires in light of the fresh figures that came out earlier today. economy minister has floated the idea of lowering taxes for corporations for example but there are people that say now would be the time to act rather than waiting until the downturn has worsened now would be the time to act when the economy is still in somewhat somewhat good shape and they are calling for an investment program into digitalisation something. rather good for the country into infrastructure and into means that would combat climate change but so far no word on that from the german government chris october from business thank you very much now to brazil in the fight over the amazon rain forest thousands of indigenous women traveled to the capital brasilia on tuesday to rally against president. they say he has in effect declare
