Want to come in the form of a christmas commercial. This tuesday the 17th of december im calling with the world news this hour were starting in france where after a series of horrific injuries against protesters its come to light that the french authorities warned of the dangers of using tear gas grenades against demonstrators as far back as january last year. The company which makes the military grade devices wrote to the French Interior ministry about the safety risks of its grenades being used by riot police the blast effect of the devices produced by an expose of substance are likely to maim or mortally injure an individual well those with intense sound effects can cause irreversible hearing damage the resumption of production is impossible without completely reviewing the production process. Well in a letter leaked to the french investigative news Website Media parts of the manufacture warns the defects in the grenades were identified but not resolved france is the only country where riot police use this particular type of weapon and despite the warnings they are still being used and have on occasion been known to simply explode when being handled. Has already caused injuries among yellow vests protesters 5 of whom have lost hands during protests a woman also died after she was hit by one at a demo in ma say last year dozens more protesters say they have been injured by the weapons as well. As the National Assembly and people were trying to force their way in the Police Arrived and threw grenades one hit the guys leg who tried to push it away with his hands as a reflex reaction. Was. Oh. I dont want anyone but me mother says she had been targeted and we want the truth and justice. I will try to fight against the use of g. L. I for grenades which are totally from my point of view weapons of war and against rubber bullet guns a french journalist i am told us he thinks the governments using the grenade as a deterrent. But you also mustnt forget the use of the trash small rubber bullets during boozers instructions which have led to several people losing a knife more than 20. For you remember we were sued for those new political will to stop this madness in my opinion it is very cynical to do it on purpose so you want to dissuade people from the most rating and from showing their anger and during this yellow vests protest the preventively for instance arresting people because they were carrying swimming classes in order to protect their their eyes from cherokee dass it is where your true bitching to most ration was preventing it from being massive meantime mass industrial action in france enters its 3rd week on monday with transport workers causing severe disruption to road rail systems nationwide since the beginning of this month Public Sector employees have been protesting angrily against the governments pension reform plans sometimes violently more protests are expected later today now with that in mind lets go live now its now our correspondent charlotte more fears of disruption today is what 11 am there now hows it playing out so far. Yes thats right much of paris remains paralyzed with hundreds of kilometers of destruction of traffic is people trying to get into the city because of course many of the Train Services from out of paris into the city center have been not working right 80 percent of them not working here in paris the metro is all but. Nails pace with only a couple of lines mainly the automated lines working as a result of that continued strike we are expecting to see a big protest today this is the 3rd time that unions have called for nationwide protests since this strike began back on. Its now into its 3rd week and there are some suggestions that up to a 1000000 people could be out on the streets across france today that very 1st day of strikes back in the early december it was around 809000 it dropped just over a week later to just under 400000 but now theyre saying now the government is outlined all of its pension proposals including that very controversial raising the retirement age from 62 to 64 that up to a 1000000 people to take out to the streets there are also warnings from the authorities that they could be what they call the castle the thugs wholl be among the protest here in paris looking to cause chaos now the pension reform was the spark for this particular strike but its not the only malays in france weve seen across 2001000 strikes teachers from the police even they had a historic strike back in october and even we had strikes from medical and Health Workers all the way back to march of this year now in stark contrast a warning from doctors some 600 signed a letter on monday morning that they would quit their posts unless the government injects a huge amount of money into the Health System they say that theres a shortage when it comes to hospital beds because theyre being closed there is not enough staff and this we got enough money and those are the results of that one Health Worker has told us that that is putting peoples lives risk. In particular we as Health Care Professionals want to be able to continue to do our jobs the way we were tired and the way we wanted to without any discrimination about interests which has become systemic we dont have the equipment but its not our fault we are understaffed but its not our fault either i work in hospital one of our patients died almost a year ago simply because we dont have enough staff to take care of everyone there. Was a year ago but nothing has changed since then. What president mccollum had recently said to doctors he would put more money into the Health System and also pay hospital workers bonuses however that was rejected by his groups is not doing enough today on tuesday another big day of action is to set up a 1000000 people on to separate it to be out on the streets across france the government says it wont back down when it comes to its reform agenda particularly on this pension because he feels it has to plug a huge gap in its finances and the unions say that they wont back down just a week before christmas now and it doesnt appear that there is a truce in sight. For now should that change will be right back with you for now though charlotte do bensky in paris thank you. Next call between a rock and a hard place americas Family Friendly whole marketing of the channels apologized for pulling a commercial featuring a same sex couple has promised to create more inclusive content the Company Division which operates the network says its been a tough call around the crown media team has been agonizing over this decision as weve seen the hurt is has unintentionally caused our mission is rooted in helping all people connect summer break traditions and be inspired to capture meaningful moments in their lives we are truly sorry for the hurt and disappointment this has caused it comes after the channel pulled an ad for a Wedding Planning website that featured a gay couple getting married sparking complaints. Planning your perfect wedding easier we. Just. Started for free. The advert spurred a petition by the Christian Conservative group 1000000 moms called on hold mock to not show any l. G. B. To friendly content on the channel claiming it went against the values of its target audience however the removal caused a backlash on social media as well and channel executives change their minds kevin owen spoke to human rights activist Peter Tatchell and media commentator gina luton about the route. This was just a handful but sought to include women who love each other and that is a fact of life and christmas is all about love and coming together you know i can understand what the fuss is about you know if i saw a card or a verse or anything with a man or woman kissing i think beautiful wonderful i love it they were viewers they were watching it they were thinking hey you know if im going to talk to my children about Sexual Orientation id like to have that conversation with them one on one i dont really want to come in the form of a christmas commercial and that to some people is understandable and it doesnt mean that they were necessarily bigoted or that this was in any way antigay it might just be that they wanted to be the ones to have that conversation with their 5 year old is there any reason why a channel which describes itself as Family Friendly shows 1st 2 shows this time of year it wants and children families to gather around the t. V. Popcorn and watch is there a reason to describe it in themselves is that they should take a bit more care not to offend people that may be offended most young kids get it when they see 2 people in love young kids dont think you know man woman boy girl that they think of love and these were about love not about 6 about love and i would have thought in a modern mature democracy we were a bit of a celebrate love in its many forms is this the time of year where we want to be making political statements during you know what is a the Holiday Season where we sitting around the fire with our families you know having having a good time and maybe not thinking so much about l g b t or even abortion or other things that might be more of a political statement almost apologize for pulling the did they need to apologize i think they did yes because its quite offensive to say that you know an image of 2 women in love is somehow. Not fit and proper for a broadcast channel in this day and age. By putting the ad that was a deep insult an assertive rejection of the many same sex couples who do love each other and love each other just as much as any husband or wife you get pushback that is from a Political Action group be it conservative or liberal what youre really getting is a falsely inflated political pushback from people that arent necessarily your viewers when you hear the pushback initially from the viewers saying you know hey were were moms were watching your network and we dont want this on there my guess is that the majority of that was probably organic. Indonesia is suing the European Union for its decision to stop using Palm Oil Based biofuels the you want to get Member States to phase in eco friendly fuels instead but indonesia which is the Worlds Largest possible producer suspects the move more about trade rivalry than saving the planet as nichiren explained. Palm oil its in everything thousands of everyday products from chocolate to shampoo and cleaning products without even thinking about it we consume on average of around 8 kilos of it each year the last few years theres been a wind of change with the e. U. s new focus on emphasizing a greener more eco conscious position and as a result earlier this year the e. U. Began to turn its back on this cheap and versatile product with plans to phase out the use of pall mall in biofuels by the end of 2030. Indonesia is the Largest Palm Oil Exporter in the world within the World Trade Organization its been something palm oil to some big clients figure is for example you on very good terms of cost of the stakes the hobby its heavily reliant on Palm Oil Production is one of its Key Industries with over 2000000 indonesians directly employed by the industry and many more were gaining from indirect economic benefits and after threatening the e. U. With countless times since indonesia has now taken legal action against the European Union alleging discrimination against Indonesian Palm Oil exports with a lawsuit indonesia hopes the e. U. Will promptly change its read to policy and delegated act as well as scrap the high risk in direct Land Use Change that as it has given to palm oil just last week the block imposed a 5 year tower of stone bio diesel from the Southeast Asian nation to counter alleged subsidies to producers in the country have also lost a complaint from prostitutes. The subsidised exports of indonesian bio diesel to the e. U. Are causing a threat to material injury to the Union Industry indonesias finest foreign minister accuses the e. U. Of following a protectionist policy and in a sign of further deepening trade tensions in neighboring malaysia the worlds number 2 in Palm Oil Production is mulling taking this same action and the last lines that asias 2 dominant call will produce says may be heading for a clash with the e. U. In the International Court of justice with suggestions that the new stance on palm oil might have something to do with competition in the edible oil business rather than pure ecological concerns. This is all to see more of a Headline News ahead boeing says its suspending production of its ill fated 737 max jets well tell you why after the break. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy on from day shouldnt let it be an arms race is on often spearing Dramatic Development only we engage in loses i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. What politicians do you should. Put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president. Some want to. Let you go right to the press this is what. 3 people. Im interested in why. Should. I. The Worlds Largest Aerospace Company americas boeing says its going to suspend production of its ill fated 737 max jet from january its because regulators say they wont lift the flight ban on the plane anytime soon we know the process of approving the 737 max return to service must be extraordinarily thorough and robust to ensure that our regulators customers and the fine public have confidence in this 737 max update we have decided to prioritize the delivery of stored aircraft and temporarily suspend production of the some 37. 00 Program Beginning next month a boeing didnt specify just how long the shutdown is going to be a 737 max has been grounded globally since march after nearly 350 people died in 2 separate crashes in ethiopia and indonesia are in the space of 5 months. I am keen. On americas been hearing from a former official from the u. S. National Transportation Safety board. It is a huge story i mean this is this is something that has been the nightmare that boeing has been trying to avoid the entire time this is one theyve had this p. R. Campaign going on the entire time to keep their investors calm down in settled like well get through this this and so forth but but right now the investors have had enough theyre very frustrated with boeing and theyve had enough in the stocks took a 4 percent hit today during the day and has went down another percent after hours so lets try and understand what this means right from a rudimentary level it means this plane is an absolute unmitigated failure its going the way of the absolute it is thats a good comparison actually quite honestly it is one of those things that once it gets a Bad Reputation and they have not done anything to help themselves but this thing has a Bad Reputation now that the other american the traveling public is not willing to fly it even if they give the thing some sort of fight and they get it up in the air and its going again within the Airlines Even the public is trying to opt out of having to fly on this plane and you mentioned earlier when we were 1st talking about this that theres a lot of little guys that are going to get hit by this absolutely not the big guys are going to keep working at boeing little guys the vendors. Theres about 12000. 00 employees at boeing theyre going to be affected by this but theyre not going to furlough or fire any of those folks are not good for right now theyre going to move around within within the company now with that i mean theres only so long that even a company a size of boeing can be carrying 12000. 00 extra employees that are kind of a ship to have nothing to do right now now shift that over to the smaller d people the smaller suppliers that supply other parts of players for these aircraft that are not just in the u. S. But around the world they dont have those deep pockets the boeing has they dont have the financial cushion that boeing has so youre talking about an economic hit this is an economic story thats going to affect a lot of working people in america its going to its not just the working people to theyre going to delay purchases theyre going to. Draw in their. You know their budget strings and theyre going to be. Not buying new cars theyre not going to be buying a lot of meals outside a home theyre going to be really tightening their shoes their strings theyre going to experience it in person and making sure that theyre they can get through this period when you rush a situation when you rush a product out on the market before its ready you always run into trouble thats why we have regulators and regulations right which is had its own problems and this is the last few weeks to.
