The greek government has no other option because his theres borders is here to do something so you have the guns now we are 4000 of them my wrongs are already. Zone between greece and turkey of greece accept them were going to be. Clear 100000 more and if the person who people who are being applied i dont see why the government could do bigger government we mustnt forget. The bruce refugee crisis. System youre actually collapsed over there this might be part of this were destroyed we have been taking care of the Asylum Seekers for the last 7 years and we have spent more than 40 billions. Worrying about them is a concept which can be described as in daily dollars showed the europeans should not have caused their ears to our warnings for the last 7 years we told them numerous times and were still telling them the solution is to bring democracy to syria the solution is that for the user to use to go to europe or for them to stay in turkey and unfortunately the partner was ignoring us and now i think they are starting to take us seriously. A hotel has collapsed in the south east of china with more than 40 people reportedly still trapped under the rubble Emergency Services working at the site say theyve managed to rescue 34 people at the moment theres no information about any potential casualties according to local media at the hotel it was being used as a coin 200 sites for suspected coronavirus patients but its still not clear at this point what led to the collapse. Meanwhile the number of confirmed corona virus cases worldwide has exceeded 100000 viruses not sparing politicians either with the leader of italys Ruling Democratic Party testing positive and any round the virus has claimed its 1st fatality among lawmakers with over 20 more m. P. s infected as well as as the World Health Organization has warned its still premature to predict when the outbreak will start to decline. We do not know yes what the activity or the behavior of this virus will be in different climatic conditions and its a false hope to say yes it will just disappear in the summertime like influenza virus we hope it does i would i would be a godsend but we can to make that assumption. Over the past 24 hours 4 more cases have been confirmed in russia bringing the total number in the country to 14 all 4 of the newly identified individuals have recently visited italy Authorities Say theyve traced all those who had contact with them and are putting them under medical supervision many more around russia who have visited virus hotspots have been put into quarantine as well r. T. Russia has this report on how the country is handling the situation. The man who was russias 1st patient came off a flight from milan we now know that the virus is in russia and an epidemic may have started the effects of which are difficult to predict at that view the 13 here is a very interesting virus and it falls the cells into thinking that it contains something beneficial and the cells accept it. If you feel unwell ice difficult to breathe should you go to a hospital you know you need to go all 3 or one or 3 medics will come in assess the situation if they find out that the patient has a serious risk or infection and has been in risk areas then the basement will be taken into quarantine. I went to competition in italy where there was no app demick at the time a few days after i arrived back home to russia i started to feel well now were in a new municipal hospital. While originally started from the initial infection and from the. Province here the minute the specific moment when i understood that the situation was serious it took one or 2 days on the 22nd of december i was out with friends the next day i wanted to go to the city center of my friend told me the metro had been closed but those 8 year i tried entering the metro but it was shot everything was closed to me and the 144 people were evacuated to 2 men from on their arrival they rule examined by specialists. How is it that so many people who spend so much time. At the center of an epidemic have not been infected 144 people were evacuated and not one of them was infected why. The probability of infection from this new coronavirus was high but restrictive measures have been taken firstly limited movement around the city secondly Wearing Masks can frequently washing hands much of the main recommendations for avoiding infection 1st of all good care of the nose and throat this means rinsing and dont be lazy rinse until you feel your airways are clear. Thousands of spanish students have rallied in madrid against Sex Education plans by the right wing vox party demonstrators chanted feminist slogans and carried banners denouncing the socalled parental veto under boxes proposal parents would have to give permission for children to join School Workshops perceived as ideological that would include classes on Sex Education gender and other issues like Climate Change so far only one region has introduced the plans but its been condemned by the National Government local authorities are refusing to repeal the move we will not do it because it says the government does not believe in what we believe in namely the freedom of fathers and mothers. A homophobic family does not have the right to make their children harmful because well Parental Authority cannot be confused with property in the u. K. To l g b t education has sparked a furious backlash starting from september classes covering the issue will become compulsory in there and that is triggered protests among parents particularly from the religious community the issues up for debate. I think is absolutely right that parents do have a right to teach their own children according to their beliefs but the Education System has a responsibility to give children a comprehensive education and to give them information to safeguard their health and welfare to say that the state must come in and muscle in an area which parents be doing extremely well for thousands of years is just simply its not good the primary responsibility in fact rest for the parents and parents do have the right to opt out of of Sex Education a majority of parents think it is the responsibility of the schools to do that theyre happy and content for that and if you look around the world in every country where there. Anti sex wars and low cost sex and leisure bridge occasion the levels of teenage pregnancies and abortions are much much higher michael as long as hes close his a thoughtfully and the not indoctrinating children what whats the problem here are the programs which encourage more knowledge and more explicit knowledge were completely and utterly counterproductive whereas those which encourage abstinence people waiting so that they you know they gauge and Sexual Activity when theyre ready and mature those were the ones those were the programs which were seen to be the best for teenagers uganda a long time ago abandoned Sex Education and went for abstinence only to discourage young people having sex the end result was increased teenage pregnancies and rocketing levels of hiv pairing. What happens in this country uganda is comparing apples and pears completely inappropriate comparison i would suggest ever since we have seen the introduction of Sex Education in this country as something which is compulsory since 1983 unfortunately there has been a number to go to disaster which has happened in this country we have seen as t. D. s and teenagers and young people go up to see the potion grow up weve seen all social indicators of things that happen to young people have risen in relation to sexual matters it is proven throughout the world that early good quality age appropriate relationships extrication does actually work what the educated the people who know what theyre talking about and theyve studied this going back for decades that really the. Waiting and respecting yourself these are these are the programs which work best are the most healthy which lead to the best and most Prosperous Society and what ultimately whats the best interest of every child. After billionaires Michael Bloomberg and tom starr quit the u. S. President ial race critics have suggested theyre focused on spending money rather than discussing their policies played a part of explains. Russians are at it again and of plotting to purchase another 4 years of presidency for trump or at least this is the reality tom styer is living in donald everyone knows that in 2060 russia bought the election for you were not going to let the happen again im all in to defeat you in 2020 if you dont know who tom styer is or whats so great about him dont worry Many Americans dont know either hes a failed run for the democratic nomination and outrageous spending on his own Campaign Style is bid to topple donald trump is backed by his fellow loser Mike Bloomberg who spent even more trying to buy his way into the hearts of voters the sum is so offensively large in fact it even had emerson b. C. Confused somebody tweeted recently that actually with the money he spent on every american dollars i think ratable way of putting it its true its just irving well its a lot less disturbing if you get the math right quick arithmetic lesson guys 500000000. 00 divided by 327000000. 00 is roughly 1. 00 well dollars not 1000000 this aside though style and bloomberg combined spent more than the 750000000. 00 on their campaigns before super tuesday thats more than all other Democratic Candidates combined and as much as the entire Hillary ClintonCampaign Officially cost back in 2016 including primaries and the had to had with the trump yet all these good zillions failed to secure even one delegate for stare while bloomberg got 61 and in case anyone from emerson be. The sea is watching its maths time again and thats more than 8000000. 00 the delegates you clearly cant buy the election to be some rich guy but if youre completely out of touch with the American People if you are so arrogant to spend this amount of money its its not going to get you very far the Democratic Party which is the party of billionaires and corporatists and and large banks and what have you joe biden being that a credit card or banking candidate they like dont like their their followers their voters to notice because they try to present themselves as the party of the people obviously theyre not but so they would probably like to keep that under wraps and while joe biden is excited to have these wallets now the poor ring money into his campaign its difficult to say why according to the minute reports russia spent an unbelievable 100000 dollars on online ads remember in tom style as well that was enough to buy from presidency his hundreds of millions of dollars didnt even get him a single delegate not even a nomination so either thats some one hell of a Money Management skill or maybe just maybe someones policies just arent worth a penny some invisible mysterious russians who spent a 100000. 00 on facebook ads of 26. 00 team which somehow got the president elected well now weve got Mike Bloomberg who spent half a 1000000000. 00 on ads that look at everybody going to spend that money and he could have paid donald trump to leave office not i think the president would he could have bought american samoa. Still to come disney cuts a popular character from its remake of the line over 32 concerns on that after this. The leg. Length. Join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and ill be speaking to us of the world of politics or business im show business ill see you then. Come back to the program with the craze of rebooting traditional cartoons continuing disneys back in the spotlight for giving malone a me too friendly make over artist Saskia Taylor takes a look and her weekly diary. Did. Diary you know me im generally a patient understanding person but really there are only so many and just to says one can suffer when the live action remake of everyones childhood favorite Sleeping Beauty dropped i thought yeah ill give her a chance imagine my shock when a war is awoken from her sleep not by Prince Philip no not you but by molestus and herself no harm come to you as. A parent it was problematic because it didnt consent and maybe the prince wasnt how one true love a knife in the back of my childhood and then the time classic cinderella came on while really ouch that makes me so anxious just thinking about it but naively i still thought that disney could possibly destroy it well it turns out i was wrong just how many injustices in 100 minutes fosli the mice dont get to speak out will they do is hang around waiting for the fairy godmother to turn up and turn them into co. I know what such might suspect i mean youre basically little slaves to later then prince charming got a very on regal dressing down and got renamed kit heaven forbid we have any magic romance of gallantry left in the world also youd think that with 65 years to come up with a new name theyd have done it a bit better as a side note not sure why prince charming gets a make over but its still ok for cinderella to be stitched into a course. In the blue dress it was particularly tight when i was trying to dance i didnt have the capacity to breathe to support the physicality and so i had to keep taking breaks and loosen in the corset then a latin materialized flying carpet and a genie in a cave yes please i was still clinging to the hope that the cinderella saga is just a teething problem no now princess jasmine it always been a favorite of mine is such a bad ass the princess turning down this handsome prince is left right and center but no that wasnt enough for disney they just have to make her sultan you want to be sold to the club. Has been preparing for this my whole life now i watched all that and i stayed silent but normal because now theyve come for the jewel in the disney crown theyve come from milan and her disney match. I mean no one could possibly take issue with the shining the serious army captain could day i think particularly in the time of the me too movement having a Commanding Officer that is also the sexual Love Interest was very uncomfortable and we didnt think it was appropriate and the shang who saw me not as an equal who respected her as a warrior whos not just one of these princes swarming around in his fancy costume but can actually fish with his bare hands. Sorry who built a friendship founded on respect with before ok realised hed quite like youre telling me of that being ditched i know your out but kid gets to stay home but no that wasnt enough for those brutes it disney you know the iconic scene where milan chops off her locks.

A Regional Council in the u. K. Has been accused of spreading transphobia over International WomensDay Celebrations of more on the story here shouting at woodstock International Womens day is coming up its a day to mark the struggle for the right to vote and the fight for equal rights but this year the run up to march the 8th has been inadvertently embroiled in a trance rau Certain Council liverpool has been pressurised into removing flags being flown outside its town hall is simply red woman known adult female and while that might be the definition in the Oxford English dictionary its been deemed transphobia the flag you flying at the moment is a hostile trans phobic dog recognizes a symbol and brand of one of britains most outspoken and visible trans antagonists and leader of the trans phobic hate group moments later the flags were removed but the council saying it didnt realize the controversial messaging they were being asked to display we have been made aware of the potential issue regarding the messaging on the. Board town halls and have taken them down we have a broad history of supporting l g b t q plus riots across the borough we continue to support all members of all communities and want it looked like International Womens day had been cancelled later they decided to reinstate the celebration replacing the old flag with a different one we went to find out if people really find the statement on the flag offensive why would it be offensive feel like. Just because you have a flag that represents women and doesnt insult anyone else it just empowers women i think its a woman decision. Definition of. I know it probably needs to. Take a lot of political themes to talk about a woman i dont think there should be a label and i dont think there should be a definition of all genders all religions or anything but the problem i have is with the word transphobia coming to the word for between one house and 3 or 2 with something i dont think thats necessarily the case and i dont think the word is being brandished around these are those issues you know 2. Possible sets of other agendas well one the time to build on it seems like he calls on the bridge anything without offending people or at least having opinions polls apart this is a very subjective a very relative issue its an opinion based where you call it flag offensive on a tweet because it used the dictionary definition the problem when you give in because of anonymous or angry tweets when you give in you give that platform power nobody should be giving it power to any voice that is meant to silence for wrongful reasons and so we dont want to give those voices any more justification just because they dont like something because then its going to cause everybody who wants to shut down a company shut down a cause or shut down any kind of truth or opinion that they dont agree with its going to give them more power to continue lambaste in these defamatory slanderous remarks on twitter and social media which has been very very harmful to people we have now been entrenched in this culture of fear where everybody wants to be afraid where we cannot say anything and what that does when there is such a pervasive culture of fear were going to be labeled transpo record zina phobic or racist or homophobic or whatever it is.
