International i 1st will start with an incident that happened on saturday night in the u. S. Because officials there say that 5 people were stabbed at the home of an ultra orthodox rabbi in new york authorities also say all the injured were taken to hospital with one person in a Critical Condition the attack happened during a nuke a party when a man with a machete entered the Building Police say the attacker is still at large well bring you more updates as we get them. This week the u. S. Democratic president ial candidate Michael Bloomberg did his Campaign News prison labor to promote his election message his team hired a firm to help him with to help with his campaign who in turn employed female inmates to call up voters although blew himself denies he knew it was happening. We learned about this when the reporter called us but as soon as we discovered which friend a subcontractor had done this we immediately ended our relationship with the company and the people who hire them imagine being so rich you have people who have people who have prisoners to do stuff for you agence being so rich you dont even bother to check what you are spending millions of dollars on. Rita reading we sad indeed when we learn a vendor of a vendor of a vendor use prison labor we did know about it and we never would have allowed it we dont believe in this practice and we immediately stopped working with pro com and the people who hired them so how do you do it pay someone to pay someone to tell them Mike Bloomberg is a big spender he was last to do in the president ial race and he has already outspent all the other Democratic Candidates on Campaign Advertising i mean the guy has so much money he doesnt seem to have the time to check what he spent a good dog but they his credit Michael Bloomberg did promise america more work just to. Get it. For president jobs creator. Right america more jobs even if you dont particularly want them what makes it much much worse is that many of the prisons in the states a private run for profit and there are laws that force people to work so if you are in a jail and you are told to work you have to well youll be punished sometimes they pay you as much as 20. 00 a month thats right 20. 00 a month now heres the irony Mike Bloomberg billionaire one of the richest people in america was essentially paying for what is a slave labor to cool people to apparently tell them the easy good guy wait the bloomberg is he was paying someone to pay someone to tell everyone what a good guy he is trump says he wants to run the nation like hes running his business god help us. Cmon everybody says stuff that comes back to bite them but when billionaires do it its generally an order of magnitude. It gets. Worse the further you dig when he launched his campaign his media Bloomberg News sent out a letter thousands of its journalists pledging to uphold its principle of not investigating its own or this is the sort of person mike is Mike Bloomberg started as a middle class kid to work his way through college and built a business from a single room to a global entity creating tens of thousands of could paying jobs along the way there he couldve he probably shouldnt but he didnt let me continue he became richer year after year he made billions selling bank is ludicrously priced gadgets the same bankers who through un bridled greed set off the 2008 financial crash depriving tens of millions of people. Of life savings and jobs. Michael bloomberg for president. In a stable indoor fleas though that despite bloomberg vast wealth hes not a particularly strong candidate. It really shouldnt be acceptable for anybody liberal or conservative to use prison labor its forced labor bloomberg is a multibillionaire is word like 54000000000. 00 hes made his money by you know not paying attention to things like that. That hes not concerned about the little guy. Which i guess becomes you know if youre if youre supposedly a democrat youre concerned about the little guy and its enormous a packer see it a big problem i think its going to hurt him a lot i dont know where people get the idea that bloomberg is the great savior for democrats in the race in the race to get struck he has almost no poll support only as his money. Billionaires have not traditionally done that well running for office its. You know you got to have money to run for president but when you have that much money i think that most people are pretty suspicious of your motives in running for office. Which is a tradition of the Holiday Season for woad leaders heads of state and major organizations to deliver that annual greetings usually wrap up the passing year and generally express high paying for a prosperous and happy future but it seems this time there are a few kenyan messages as there is some explains. Christmas the time of year when people gather together to celebrate the bonds of friendship and family as a side note also a very good parent for the brits have to regulate engage an eye contact accept well wishes on fame marry much more at the same time sorry this is not my weekly therapy session but anyway weve all grown tired of repeating the same old Merry Christmas and a bit to keep the good old yuletide going and make it a trendy and 21st century the wild over people are getting creative with the traditional greeting sometimes though they know how to best put to misjudge the mood while some bake ginger. Bread houses we decided to go with them 35. 00 jet Merry Christmas to our christian soldiers and to all those celebrating around the world im a big fan of gingerbread but one in the shape of an f. 35 jet which are regularly used to conduct strikes over gaza and just hours after the i. D. F. Admitted that a raid in the gaza strip to 9 members of a Single Family was a mistake i think ill give it a miss as apparently will many others yes nothing says Merry Christmas like a freaking war machine all youre missing is some gingerbread bombs to drop on some gingerbread palestinians maybe the i. D. F. Had a brainstorm session with donald trump because his festive wishes also struck a son but tone i think someone forgot to tell him that joy is a contractual obligation in december on behalf of the entire something we wish everyone a joyous Merry Christmas but can you blame him at the end of the year were all tired poor thing couldnt even hide the fact he was reading off a prompter though he does have other things on his plate i suppose like his possible removal from office even is usually bellicose tweets have been a bit cluster of late no caps lock no explanation marks that kind of thing also jumping in head fast to the whirlpool of christmas for parts us customs and Border Protection they congratulated santa for not scaling and he was sorry chimneys this year and applying for his visa on time like youd expect it went down like a sack of presents hundreds of kids in texas are spending Christmas Eve taking care of each other freezing cold insufficient food water medical attention hygiene it resources no contact with their parents many as young as one hope he brought gifts for these kids. He missed the stop so instead of the usual Merry Christmas one and all they got this and midterm says you have filled. With small steps can make a world of difference. A very legal way of defining being on the brink of a constitutional crisis our fingers crossed hoping your son didnt spend night sweating away with a convicted sex offender and then the icing sugar on top of the your blog the un decided to pick the day christ was born to talk about how motherhood is a real chore which will apparently leave you poor bond employed and most likely gender discriminated against i wonder if mary and joseph consider these downsides as the road to bethlehem so yeah its tough to know how to wish people while at this time of year but i dont want to miss out on the fun so merry day the christ was born but only if you recognize christ im not forcing anything on you so lets just say its a Winter Holiday if the time went to doesnt offend this is a safe space after all totally up to you how you want to celebrate this day or not your call. Now is britain not an officially out of the European Union for another month some have decided to take matters into their own hands and split from brussels early at least in the supermarket. To morrisons to see if these taste any better drug brussel sprouts. This problems have the right to their own identity they are from yorkshire so there. Im self identifying as a yorkshire sprouts in solidarity even the one from lancashire bit one with you in a sprout. Your shirt sprouts taste really nice if theyre cute in the salty tears remain or. Many of our customers are interested in knowing where the food comes from lincolnshire sprouts are called lincolnshire sprouts because theyre from lincolnshire yorkshire sprouts are called york brown because theyre from yorkshire many of our customers like to know them. Now but has been a shopping crease in u. K. Weapons Sales Society arabia over the last 5 years us despite london signing up to a treaty to prevent exports to rights abuses oxfam which calculates the rice says it is deeply concerned about the way the weapons have been used in the conflict in yemen well according to the charity the u. K. s license sales worth nearly 6 and a half 1000000000 pounds to 8 members of the Society Coalition in the. Last 5 years thats more than in the 5 years before it signed the treaty a treaty that more than 100 countries have actually signed up to what it does regulate the arms trade in order to prevent human suffering the British Government was also keen to stress its importance when he signed up. The a. T. T. Is the only legally binding treaty regulating and promoting legitimate responsible trading conventional arms he remains a unique and valuable instrument when the arms trade treaty came into effect u. K. With a real champion of that treaty unfortunately sales to countries that we in yemen are party to now or in yemen have actually increased and i think this is the signal that. Youre yemen worlds worst humanitarian crisis right now and the u. K. I am far from kind of living up to treaty on and the word is that treaty has has continued to so countries involved in a conflict where we know international intamin know is has been disregarded. With pressure mounting the u. K. Has now had to suspend the sale of weapons to saudi arabia in june the court of appeal said that they were unlawful although it is expected that the government will appeal the decision the Supreme Court saudi arabias intervention in yemen started in 2015 to fight who the rebels who they say are terrorists however is the level of civilian casualties in the conflict thats been thats become a major cause of concern. Ruth time again says that there is clear evidence that riyadh has committed Human Rights Violations and yet. The evidence is really i have a well meaning and that theres been consistent violations of International Law and and as you say the case was really clear that. The government needed to you know if it was going to continue to license weapons had to be clear about what that there was a pattern of violation and that violation was clearly so i find that height that system will be a pal and i think its. You know very sad that the government have had to try and chosen to appeal this decision and wish to continue to sow weapons that have been used in a war that is causing untold poverty and homme and destruction fed the people of yemen.

Their article needed to be challenge. And i myself need to have an apology from the guardian the apology there happened but their review panel has. Decided and has ruled that the article was indeed misleading breach in the heart of conduct of the press in the United Kingdom but im not completely satisfied with with a correction the other thing is that they have not being. Amend it does the article still says that the russian diplomat. Secret talks in london in order to help Julian Assange to flee the embassy thats not true finally.

Whats called the financial instability hypothesis that explains where the 2008 process came from out of that part of what i discovered from the Mathematical Modeling i did was this is a simple relationship between an increasing level of private debt and a full name out of money going to work because as you had a rising level of debt which is what led to a cross that rising level of debt meant a rising amount of money going to the bankers and rather than the
