and there were a lot of critics online who pointed that out, for example, a professor at the university of london. lala colleague who tweeted colon powers justification of the iraq war in 2003 was only one of the more recent times. he lubricated the machinery of imperial warfare and someone else. and twitter said that people were out here wishing a man to rest in peace, he deprived thousands of other people from is just unfathomable. and the american left leaning magazine jacobin titled his obituary this way colon power, politely anguished, war criminal dead at 84. as we reported last week, the awarding of a 2021 nobel peace prize to moscow based journalist. dimitri more art off was a clarion call on the challenges the 4th estate faces in russia. the authorities there have been gradually, systematically clamping down on journalism targeting outlets critical of the kremlin or that have revealed graft and wrong doing on the part of the rational eat . the very same day as the nobel announcement was made. another 13 journalist and media outlets were classified by the russian government as foreign age

according to economists from dartmouth and the university of college london, a recession is absolutely fast approaching. this is a massive crisis. jen psaki mocking the concern of millions of americans who are now paying more for everything because of their bad policies. pretty disgraceful, low class public servant, but she speaks for joe or whoever is telling joe what to say or what to do on any given day. if joe even knows what day of the week it is. and now psaki's friends on the radical left are turning up the pressure on west virginia senator joe manchin. and they are not worried about inflation or a looming recession, no, they just want their $3.5 trillion new greend deal socialism spending rammed through congress. and recently, socialist bernie sanders, he pens an op-ed in manchin's hometown newspaper blasting manchin for not signing off on his socialism, that apparently the people in vermont love, and now other progressives are now running ads in west virginia like this one, take a look. >> my son, he was a welder, and he had to travel two hours from here just to have decent pa

of london is that a negative impact on the economy during that period? well that, that is right. that is, i'm quoting research conducted at the university of sheffield by distinguished academics. so she look at, we bailed out the banks. for example. the city of london is at the forefront of a tax avoidance industry, money laundering industry. many of our graduates end up working in the finance industry instead of say, going to other industries which are far more productive. i love the city of london is basically simply gambling by taking all these things into account. the academic colleagues, cheko university came up with that estimate that estimate has not been denied by the government. indeed, i have cited that in debates of the house of lords, challenger ministers, the denied you look at the other countries that finance industry too. but it is not so dominant, i'm not against the finance industry, but what i am again says on unrestrained speculation and gambling was we have, we have a financial conduct authority here is a regulator. and in the house of lords, you your demanding an investigation into the regulator itself. i mean, is l

he's the executive director at the center of universal health at jasmine house in london. rabbit. i was looking at some numbers and by some analysis g. 20 countries have received 15 times more cobit 19 vaccine doses per capita than low income countries. countries in sub saharan africa. i know you yourself have used the word indifference when it comes to how, which countries of address that do you expect need is actually to do anything today to change that? well, they must, i mean one does what is the point of the g 20 a global crisis like this and, you know, we've been hearing from you already to that. and so when it comes to the climate crisis, we need meaningful and effective action. and this is exactly what we need from the g 20 unfortunate that did happen at the g 7, but it was hosted in court will earlier in the year. but we now have the vaccines available to us to be added to, to even up the distribution around the world. so it's very, very straightforward. what needs to be done. and i want to just hopes that g 20 meters take your opportunity to watch in this crisis. rather

of infectious disease. since university college london and joined us by skype from london, it's great to have you with us on the news iraq, santa. i just this pill work. yes it is. an anti virus pill is an oral capsule, so it's easy to take at home. it can be a, you don't have to take it in hospital rather density or, and other treatments were actually an infusion base or inter an intravenous administration. so this is a much more convenient than many of the other types of treatments such as monoclonal antibodies, et cetera. which were much more expensive and were complicated and, and required much more staff to administer on. and rather than targeting the surface protein, this actually of garbled, the viral genes as a less effective at replicating within the body. so it's about time that we were able to introduce an easy to take a tablet home within our tool kit of various medications that can help prevent and fight corona virus. it certainly sounds like very good use, particularly for people who don't like needs ols, but it's not been peer reviewed yet. do you think there's a chance people might be celebr

eco—friendly mosque in cambridge, a museum in the lake district and the centrepiece of a university in south west londonavelling to the north cornwall coast. the tintagel footbridge spans a gorge about 60 metres wide and creates a link that reunites the two halves of tintagel castle for the first time in more than 500 years: more than 500 years. when we proposed it to english heritage, i never thought they'd accept. but sometimes, the crazy ideas are actually the best ideas. my name's william matthews and, along with laurent ney and matthieu mallie, from ney & partners, we are the engineers and the designers of the tintagel castle footbridge. the footbridge reconnects the two sides of the medieval castle, built in the 12th century by richard, earl of cornwall. the mainland ward and the island ward were connected by an isthmus of rock which, in a sense, eroded away, and the bridge recreates that link between the two sides. one of the key drivers behind the project — indeed, its very raison d'etre — was to improve accessibility to the site. one of the major problems that tintagel has is this incredibly ro

have to be honest, you know, that the city of london is a major source of tax revenues for the government. and so, yeah, that showed it isn't the several university survey was clear that if you add it all in all the hidden subsidies to the city of london, you add in all of you see there, we have the bailouts from january. they are a net loss to this economy. there is no point in them being here. that's true, but that's also true for the global economy action. it would work. yes. so, but, i mean, i, i'm, as you know, i'm, i'm, i'm well known as the fact that i think the city of london is unhelpful to the stability of the british economy. but, you know, it's, as it is, and the government is determined to support it. and to defend it, as is indeed the governor of the bank of england and, and at the same time neglecting, if you like the real economy where things are made and grown and expanded. and that neglect is going to make it harder to keep land as an attractive venue for, for the global financial, for those active in global financial system. what do you think of how the mainstream television media cover budgets in this country? there's been a l
