You mean you dont usually see the. Day to court that its. Not true only ten per cent. Make. Love to the. Said. Claiming to know servant is mostly that. You speak french. Most all of those of us who want the same. Continuity. To. Join me every first week on the alex im im sure and ill be speaking to us of the world of politics sports business im show business ill see you then. Over the past decade a great many european asian and african countries have introduced during crease tuition fees in their universities. In the name of excellence prices go up a little everywhere nothing seems to stop the process and yet among the four honest some questions arise and for good reason. Partly history student learn repayment that stands at around forty billion pounds a minute. Thats going to rise around two hundred billion pounds by the middle of this century. And the end of two thousand and thirteen one year into the one thousand pound yearly tuition fee a parliamentary mission is called regarding the rising student debt. After several months of investigation in room fifteen of parliament the Public Accounts Commission questions the public body in charge of student loan repayment. Giving us redistrict forty percent of the current money that goes up to students will never be collected at the moment that is at the top end of our estimates but it is not unrealistic ok so you dont quite know how youre going to fund it. Well the longer term issue of lifting the cap the treasury announcement related in the first instance to potential sales from the future loan book the plan would be to sell transfers of the loads of amount you sell a particular tranche of debt the terms of compound terms and conditions upon which it is sold are as it were set in standard crystalized and the buyer of that debt buys them on those terms and thats it they dont change can we just be clear can we just be clear that the person buying the debt buys it on set terms and conditions that then cannot subsequently be changed by the new owner of the debt is that correct yes ok thank you. Here in the u. K. The prospect of cutting the debt tranche is and selling it to private investors instantly brings to mind the disastrous mechanism of subprime loans that are shattered so many lives so many families two years ago thirty to forty percent of Student Loans remained on paper today its reached forty five percent were close to the Tipping Point at forty seven percent of non collected debt the University System and its nine thousand pounds yearly tuition fee will cost more to the english state than it did at the time of the three thousand. England seems to be engaged in a dangerous game. In the us the paying University System became widespread nearly forty years ago. Today the student debt has reached a catastrophic point. During the occupy wall Street Movement and one of the american citizens and Research Professors met with andrew ross professor at New York University the worlds most expensive university. These activists goal was to fight beyond bearable debt weighing on american citizens including the housing debt health debt and most importantly the student debt. The student debt problem in the United States to about one point three trillion in total in there about forty million student debtors about eight million of those students are already in default meaning theyre not paying out loans people cant imagine social goods or public goods in the United States its unimaginable that you could have Free Education so there is a kind of normalizing of a of a i like to say kind of economic violence that people are used to and they just expect that thats the way that is thats the way it always will be the right to education has been supplanted by the right to access education loans. The imposition of that has had the overall impact of stifling optional political imagination of students because theyre so highly and and they have to think about their future in very particular ways that are tied to their financial position and their financial survival in the future. But then movement tackles a huge market a for profit schools that have developed throughout the country in recent decades these schools do not target the elite of American Students or the working classes poor families like you to believe in dreams. This is. What the end of capital kind of looks like or at least you know a different kind of. Stayed in the capital with that sort of. Was when everything weve been on all the jobs you know people are going to force to Work Together again. Amy and christine are two young women from the detroit area who grew up in working families and who continue role in the countrys high profile universities they still believed in the prospect of a better life like hundreds of other Young Americans they put their fate in the hands of private for profit educate. No institutions the sector has grown by two hundred twenty five percent over the past ten years. America should be ashamed to even say that their Education System is this way when were supposed to be the best country in the world especially the richest country in the world but you know we are the richest country in the world for the rich but were also the poorest country in the world for the poor and away. Before god knows. Im extremely bored theres a whole new category of people out there. Extremely more rewarded. War is almost the new rich. And sad. When i was watching the television and seen that they could make my life better if i went to their school. Soon as he has on the phone was hired how are you this is my names Terry Winters im you know ill be the one to answer any questions you have. So he basically asked me if i would be interested in coming out to the school and looking at the campus and seeing what programs i had to offer said that he was a graduate there that i should come check out the school when he walks through the school they have Different Things on the walls of jobs i could qualify for with the degree but theyre not actually telling you the full details of everything and that they dont tell you that theres an arbitration clause that you cant sue the school whether individually or through a class action suit dont really know that youre getting into a predatory lending type of situation because they dont educate you to that they gloss over the Financial Aid its very quick and you just initial and then you sign at the bottom. And then it was oddly he just asked you know i have a couple graduates that would like to come in and speak with you would you have an issue talking to some recent graduates and in my mind im thinking thats kind of cool and i can actually talk to some people that went to the school you know see what they say about the school so young female and young male came in and for all i know it could have been the recruiters working with this recruiter. He came and they both came in and said that you know they found a job before they ever graduated the school placed them and that theyre doing really well and theyre not struggling paying their student loan baton life is just so much better now they have so many opportunities they can jump job a job they want a lot of these student advisers at these schools used to use on students to get them into an education. And this in document from a for Profit College if i can find that shows all the people they were. Going after welfare moms with kids relocation recent High School GraduatesCareer Change of grades goes College Freshman dropout physically mentally abused pregnant ladies recent incarceration rescind the forced drug ability military active every tired dennet no future low self Esteem College credits two years low income jobs vocational rehabilitation living with multitude of families experienced a recent death move in with parents experience recent birth of living with significant other and d. D. s in durham fired by a recent marriage selfemployed no benefits so they specifically targeted all these people for these type of loans at worst subprime and very expensive for the education they received and thats just the the internet is filled with all kinds of stuff like this. My mom was extremely proud shed like to brag to all of her friends like my daughters a college and you know i never went and shes doing less great things for her life. After enrolling i called my mom and i told her i want to chop out and she did not understand why and i was like mom you know understand the school is a scam and she said i dont understand how can a school be a scam. I have a hundred four thousand dollars in Student Loans as of september two thousand and thirteen and theyre only growing by the day. How long would it take before public european universities charging twenty thirty or forty thousand dollars a year how long would it take for a new crew to private educational system out of control like it is today in the us everywhere around the world students are mobilizing can anyone out there can anyone on this. Day question our society of political choices what kind of world do we want to live in a world where the economy is that the service of man. Or a world in which man is at the service of the economy. The two thousand and eight economic crisis turns some countries into pegs these are the countries with we korea colonies that needed austerity policies if you are in a situation of flow gloat even the recession austerity is a very bad idea it doesnt work and it makes millions of people very unhappy those who are unemployed see their wages decline after almost a decade how good are the results she saw last at the new year and hes welcome by the people gathered in greece to watch a lot of good people with your daughter julie. Who treated beautiful blue she is at the top climate was i mean to for legal. Challenge nothing more than this she did not was always think its the family and not getting paid while the same measure is still in place to one of the consequences is to weaken blue bird flu dispute over who will first one of the slew truthy consider is the consequences are actually quite acceptable to the decision makers. If. Something did these bring important for us. Not to be only a common market. As we say to be a community of that dont adopt these rules of proselytes as if you twitter is so good to power that from moscow prides dalmiya made to the it why the their way to be unsettling to communities the peace of syria. The stare. Move along when i saw. That armor on our show i think that there are rather democrats that are the four of four of them together. Im going to let them but im going to cut in their new plug and their antics and. I dont lose a child with a truffle that it doesnt make them. Work then im modeling my michelle the downside of. The dont know mind. Number set up around the hey how do you want to do is. Get the toll for first choice the i knew you have them and they are charming serious said. She ought to have a. Model for them after the couple fronts around the mr hate that for jim and then boil for her for food are for him and of course. The money. Prescribe medication is widespread on the us market and a frequent cause of death at that point in my life i just felt like everything was ashes my family was literally coming unglued i had actually planned. To commit suicide what or who has made antidepressants so commonly used we were doing what the doctors told us to do we were being responsible and what are the real side effects why. Was this gellatly alter what i did was done on a cocktail of lethal drugs. Just because somethings legal doesnt mean its safe. To go through. Turkey starts a full scale military operation against the kurds in the Syrian Region of africa with a Ground Invasion expected from sunday. A group of gunmen attacks a major hotel in the Afghan Capital kabul killing several people and injuring at least six. Pounders donald trump enters his second year in office the government is shut down over the failure to pass a funding bill we take a look back at the highs and lows of the president s tenure so far. This is r. T. International coming to you live from moscow im Kate Partridge thank you for joining us. Turkey has begun a military operation in syria against the kurdish held region of afrin the turks have launched air strikes and begun cross border shelling with a Ground Invasion expected on sunday the news agency ruptly has obtained this footage of aerial strikes on africa over seventy planes conducted sorties with all aircraft are now back at base in turkey the campaign which considers to be anti terror has been named Operation Olive Branch its aimed at ousting the Kurdish Militia from afrin which theyve held for five years the turks started cross border shelling on friday. Injured civilians in afrin were taken to the citys Central Hospital following the airstrikes the kurds claim that at least six civilians and three fighters were killed with another thirteen people injured while im correct insists all the casualties were among the fighters arties middle east correspondent paula sneer is following developments at least eight if sixteens have been firing from the skies while on the ground you have the Turkish BackedSyrian Opposition rebels who have moved into this enclave not isnt on tape that is controlled by the Kurdish Militia the y. P. G. From the ground were also hearing that the Free Syrian Army has been arriving in buses as well as in trucks that have been fitted out with machine guns we are receiving reports in terms of the civilian situation there and they were hearing that people have been ordered to retreat into their homes and into shelters but there are reports coming through of people who have been wounded and injured and who are being taken to the local hospital now all of this follows threats over the last few days by the president the one that he was going to launch a ground offensive into. It was really just a question of when and he said that this was really the only answer to root out what he has called terrorist elements there take a listen but as soon as they are for an operation has a factory been started on the ground this will be followed by. The promises of not so nobody has a right to say anything. Now man bridge is an area that is mostly arab it is waste of the euphrates and it is the next step in terms of the turkish militarys way of dealing with the Kurdish Militia it is not far from the area that the army has entered now so that is where all eyes are turning for the immediate future. Where the Turkish Foreign minister has posted a tweet saying the country launched the offensive against syrian Kurdish Militias exercising its right to selfdefense. Oh you added that and koreas actions are strictly in keeping with International Law he went on to stress the operation isnt targeting civilians but only aims to take out terrorist groups arties ego should learn of explains the distribution of forces and what brought turkey to syria. This is what the situation on the ground in syria looks like right now afrin the region where the turks are carrying out their military operation the area highlighted in green is where the turkey backed rebels are to a certain extent at least they are helping ankara from the ground red the syrian army this is the syrian army guys they dont have any problem with the kurds but they do have a problem with these guys because this is the area of the green aires also the region which harbors how you have to create or nusra a terrorist organization and finally here you have man bridge there it is also it is a city also controlled by the kurds and it could be turkeys game plan erdogan has already said after hes done with afrin man beach is next this operation hardly came out of the blue you know the kurds have been historically a major thaw in turkey is side but what catalyzed things now was the pentagon saying theyre going to create a socalled Syrian Border force the coalition is working jointly with the Syrian Democratic forces to establish and train the new Syrian BorderSecurity Force currently there are approximately two hundred thirty individuals training in the inaugural class with the goal of a final full size of approximately thirty thousand one very precise description of americas intentions there by that point turkey had had enough ankara beefed up its forces on the Syrian Border deployed tanks and president erdogan vowed to destroy quote this terrorist force before washington even has a chance to create it u. S. Secretary of state Rex Tillerson tried to do some damage control saying that the situation has been trade misdescribed and that some people misspoke well that was a nearly enough to contain turkeys fury ankara has been keeping the United States in the loop about the operation against washington supposed america which arguably pitted to. Against the kurds has now called on them to focus on the fight with eisele pretty much the same as saying its every man for himself in this conflict turkey has also notified syria about the action which damascus is not happy about at all russia in its turn has been cautious and called for all parties to pull the punches the main reason behind the developing crisis in this part of syria is the provocative steps taken by the United States which were aimed at isolating areas with predominantly kurdish populations uncontrolled deliveries by the pentagon of more than weapons to proamerican formations in Northern Syria contributed to the rapid escalation of tension in the region and led to special operation by turkish troops loose lips sink ships they say well this time were looking at a potential all out war it was done of r. T. Well we asked a couple of experts to weigh in on the apparent rift between turkey and the u. S. Weve heard the president of oregon of kochi today even say that theyre going to go beyond member who were to the. Towards the border with iraq so thats as far east as the could go which is a bit threatening to derail its the apparently the turks are seeing you know theyre using their feet you know the americans look were going to go on head on this this is very serious in our opinion and we hope that you dont you know do any military resistance and it would be a very sore situation if we would have to shoot and be shot at by an ally like the United States or an eight or all eight what were seeing now is a total division on the part of those powers who made it their business to do state to wage a destabilizing war against syria over these past years countries like turkey and the u. S. Now seemingly out each others throats determined to do wipe out each others militias on the ground proxy militias on the ground its amazing that the u. S. Is in the past week managed to completely betray both its rival allies in this in this conflict first a bit of a trail of turkey announcing this Border Security force made up primarily of kurds without any consultation with turkey and then as soon as turkey you make make an issue of it immediately drop the kurds all together and sail with nothing to do with them and basically give turkey a free hand to slaughter them. Several fatalities have been reported in afghanistan after a group of gunmen attacked a major hotel in the capital Kabul Officials also say at least six people were injured there is no immediate claim of responsibility local Journalist Bill are so ari reports from the city according to several sources within the af. Special forces the forest and second floor has been cleared some rooms on the third floor either burned down and some of them of cart fire and theres definitely battle on the fourth floor according to multiple sources within the Crisis Response unit team one fighter told me that he saw two people who were carried away from the third floor he couldnt really tell me whether they were injured or they were killed this is still an ongoing situation and this is also a hotel that got attacked in two thousand and eleven and we only heard in the last forty eight hours or so from the u. S. Embassy in kabul putting a security alert saying a number of hotels in government buildings in other locations one at risk of an attack obviously this sort of an attack Shows Security an intelligence failure but it also shows how the Afghan Government and its International Allies are finding themselves fight another fight on a very difficult front line which is the citys. Defense and security analyst come on alarm says a number of factors led to the relative success of the attack. I think unfortunately the afghan Security Forces are just not up to the standards or theres too much pressure on them and theres not much coordination between nato forces and the Afghan Police there are multiple threats theres the taliban theres all theres ice is there. Which is also in the government so there are a number of opponents and i think this simply isnt the right intelligence to counter these kind of attacks because theyre happening on the regular basis one day its a civilian target one day its a military target one day its a Commercial Road or a hotel like today had to Counter Terrorism in afghanistan you need a region approach and the regional approach means working with iran working with pakistan and working with russia in the Central Asian states at the moment the u. S. Is not
