Movies i made him and i heard all sorts of fantastic stories about how james had to hang around with these south london gangsters and learn to box and you know learn the parlance and be one of the chaps so in. The premise for performers is that. To gangsters of being asked to all dition for donald camel for this nineteen sixtys art film and basically you have these two chaps in and theyre very alien and uncomfortable environment for them sitting in a director in a car scene directors waiting room about all dition and its about the parlance between them and how they you know the discussions and how they put the world to rights where they chat and then and then down the camels assistance turns up and starts soaking them so them about burn well and Francis Bacon and nick rogue and then. It was the with the codirector of performance but it was set more down the camel film. But hes assistant comes in and basically talks them about high art and tries to get to strip naked which you know they they do or dont do which is on this thats really thats where that is what we get into the nexus between the gangsters and the and the politics and all the rest of the second but so your reaction to the performance watching the film similar to that of the reaction of the world in a world. Oh its a cult movie ive seen it a bunch of times i saw it last time i saw it was. Every time its on as a prince you know they showed it at the electric in portobello road about two years ago and i went with me on the boat is a friend of mine the playwright we both went to see that the prince of performance said you know they tied up another print because the film was banned and then and then so shredded and then and then it actually same project it is bitrate but and then it was reality didnt some bits were cut out and sometimes the version that uses the e. C. Broadcast doesnt have a lot of the scenes in it the move to violence point to scenes in. I mean its its a seminal film for all sorts of reasons but its a have that to use that as the basis to sort of. The establishment and is that as a premise for so comedy of manners is corporately take us back to that time because the film came out towards the end of the. Year where its just meant politics yeah i think it was one of the sort the apex of it really because at the time everybody people have heard the rumors about. The craze and their connections with the aristocracy and stories are the art that if youre allowed to talk about them and i think we will anyway but it was a time when the government could tell the sunday mirror to withdraw a story about a fair between between one of the cronies graham booth we are looking into that yes lord i presume we can talk i dont know what their cries are around anymore and maybe you know you said it was released now you ask i didnt but you had a little bit of be a fair actually thats in the long it was touched upon in legends the crate and theres there are these very strong connections between the cracks of. The underworld in the success of the world really and this this idea that then. Villains start to get involved in the arts which is only a matter of time before the art style get involved with villains and i think this this progression to move made as a conceptual artist and and his film is going to be about the jew aleksey of man and and the criminal fraternity reflected that so basically go on to really spiteful people to be in his film when you do see a jump indian who then went on to become. Quite a few films after that hed done a stretch for manslaughter you know he killed a man. Your club. You know was a bit of a face and hes if hes first appearance in a in a feature film theres a whole bunch of them they had pretty substantial rap sheets so the idea that everybody in it that wasnt james fox is a real villain and ironically enough is something that guy. Richie did with lock stock but something thats a bit more accessible and hes funny and selfeffacing with the casting of of lenny maclean and all the other chaps that he used in in his debut film so i think theres a bit synergy with with the whole thing you mentioned the manslaughter because there was violence they were new generations seeing it in the french way to say we dont have the gangsters and the phrase back next year i mean they didnt like the banking because the big nexus without i doubt it i think theres a huge shift in dynamics between fringe theatre and whatever bank is i dont think bankers understand that fringe there exists and i would be other than to be many bank is in there i mean theres this idea that you know theres theres Money Laundering in it maybe you know maybe some of the criminal underworld in the sixtys or. Pave the way for what some of the banking on the world do bit later on but i think i think its all about ego i think really you cant become wealthy without because without affecting your ego something there are ive learned over the years. With. You know being in that environment and seeing friends around but i think it also happens if youre if youre a villain if you become if you become powerful you want to become famous and so the craze had david bailey take a photograph you know those famous or comic you know one in front of the other this is the sort of outline of that that said david bowie portrait done in his studio because the crazed thought that they were they were celebrities now and the idea that they are of course more now going to be a movie star you know that that thats of course thats the next step some is going to have been a film and the idea that the in. A scene that brought brought down the whats interesting about the play you know why its so funny is because obviously they can act they dont react they one of them does a speech but cant act. Of an apprentice i have never been with. Ask anyone ive never been to of and they are really that that will be being said in a theater full of you know. Full of actors and but the idea that the celebrity is the thing whether youre a banker or whether you own a. Chain of Hardware Store shops or or whether whether you are the chairman of a Football Club you know what you want its about being famous its about that ego and i think thats whats interesting about even the title performance is that is that the villains are there performing all the time and the great thing about the plays thats what sets you up with your comedy of manners because you have to be put in front of at all times im a villain im one of the chaps i dont want to look at pictures of Francis Bacon to get naked in front of you chris thats not what we do is there is theres never everybody has got a front so who is more powerful than we are to see world or the gangster world i mean the riches in vain which is that he claims of bug been bugging her will soon lead the Prime Minister that was in power rather to have a formula how much whos more part of the arts world or the political its that the thing about gangsters is it is you never eat never after you never call him a liar you know so charlie which isnt much say that youd have to go on the air charlie says you wouldnt actually look old so i will go on their way the time you were saying and write down what were not so i never asked and i didnt want to spend but you dont whereas if you do it youre called to account the thing about the world of the world is that you know it will change the world i dont know if it will but it does it does have an it just push things in a certain direction people need media people need people who. Is storytelling and storytelling informs and affects people and i think i think the government realized and gangstas realize that if you can beat a friendly face in a in a film if you can. Whether youre one of the other then youre going to youre going to cut more favor with the public you know i mean so i dont know that what i do know is i dont know much about harry potter but you were in that report of yes so as the x. Rays of me read all of harry potter. Your fault about the ascent of to resume the i dont know if shes in league with a bunch of wizards and. Lets see where the trees but why do i think its very ironic is that obviously she does a lot for her films but she has the worst in history of made and i once treasure my i think the army of it is really rich and i thought i said i want to be space up and thank you thank you and the other half are available you can go and see the performance at the Edinburgh Fringe festival from august in scotland that is after the break as u. S. Navy ship is warning shots of the iranian boats in the persian gulf with off the ground. If sanctions are actually strengthening the Islamic Republic coming up about going underground. Well were im good im. Stupid to even. Into. The so in the form. Of us running insisting that we do not in keeping him i am. I watched the twenty list as a. Kind in you when you. Knew what it wouldnt stand by showing you. The brush and stuff that i told you. Oh. Yes oh yes cant. Tell you. If you family to us but yes you figure the deal with us testing discussed at the custos terming just drove a young. Boy in his comic the big countdown the balls going to draw new years starting resolutions will be created its all so very exciting lets check in. Welcome back here in the u. K. Prime minister of tourism a has taken robbie good from the state mandated b. B. C. To be Communications Director across the pond drums new communications chief has a different background and to me scaramucci who speaks of political and they selfstyled un convention. Political convention in california within the next one hundred hours is very much of the swamp that trump said he wanted to drain the new white house Communications Director now tapped for the fourth time by drone is a wall street Hedge Fund Manager and Goldman Sachs alumnus expertise that is arguably suited to a climate of Mainstream Media speculation and watergate theory now after graduating from bob woodward schools government he began his career at Goldman Sachs in one thousand nine hundred nine but after two years was fired only to be rehired by the same company months later after leaving in one thousand nine hundred seven before the Asian Financial crisis he started sky Bridge Capital now with offices in New York Zurich and florida hes written several books including goodbye gordon gekko how to find your fortune without using your soul to the little book of hedge funds and hes also a loyal republican with spawns with democrats in the past including this interaction with the then incumbent president barack obama and i represent the wall Street Community we have felt like opinion maybe you dont feel like youre whacking us with a stick but we certainly feel like weve been whacked with a stick but like many loyal republicans scaramucci hasnt been certain loyal to the current commander in chief attacking trump as well as showing support for wiki leaks disgraced Hillary Clinton calling her incredibly competent in fact his twitter account shows that beyond just being anti trumpy different from the Republican Base on a wide range of issues in the past the mooch has tweeted that he is and the Death Penalty pro gun control pro choice a strong believer in Climate Change and against trumps Mexico Border Wall on russia scaramucci is with the deep state tweeting that one should follow altera roads they lead not just to damascus but to moscow but is he totally committed to the Obama Clinton strategy of de facto supporting isis and alqaeda linked groups against damascus is he really committed. To obama style leadership president obama did say that he was drawing a red line and then he took it away since the wrong message to our adversaries not just the Syrian Government but people around the world and so i think he had to adapt the play here scaramucci is republican evangelism arguably shows in his donations he was a proponent of the supreme courts twenty ten Citizens United decision that allowed big money to attempt to wriggle lections he said of the decision that it activated a sleeper cell of Hedge Fund Managers against obama allowing them to use their capital to influence the debate and since then hes donated vast amounts of money to various political campaigns before maxing out his donations to trump at one hundred thousand dollars he raised money for two other twenty sixteen republican president ial candidates scott walker and jeb bush his head and also donated money to mitt romney in two thousand and twelve and call rueben twenty thirteen all donations that would have been illegal before the Citizens United decision but despite his donations scaramucci has little to no experience in political combs aside from numerous appearances on the. Fox network but if youre looking for a reason as to why trump scaramucci some point to its success in helping to force the resignations of staff from c. N. N. Over an inaccurate story about his ties to russia trump advisors have said that he loved the way the mooch handled the situation and still talks about it the president then even tweeted about the event adding what about all the other phony stories they do maybe ability to force news organizations to back down is why he hinted at a job at the b. B. C. Back in twenty sixteen stating of dont trump becomes the next president im looking forward to the b. B. C. Helping me find a flat somewhere in london. This week washington again prepared for more sanctions against countries not in line with us at the moment power there was legislation this week that prevents even President Donald Trump from. Vetoing sanctions against countries perceived enemies of us politicians in congress one of the countries in the usa cites is middle east superpower iran continually destabilized by successive u. K. Governments until the nine hundred seventy nine Islamic Revolution blessed or cursed with some of the largest known reserves of oil and gas in the world iran has been the only Charm Offensive in europe sending its foreign minister mohammad gerry fifty e. U. Capitals but not to london to increase ties with the Worlds Largest trade bloc well weve caught up with one of irans most senior clerics grand ayatollah sheikh most an iraqi he is a member of irans assembly of experts which has the power to appoint and dismiss irans head of state such as current leader of the Islamic Revolution ali khamenei with me as a grand ayatollah shaikh most an iraqi and thanks so much for speaking to me grand ayatollah lets begin with the terrible figures coming from the middle east of numbers of wounded at a mosque maybe a thousand since israel on july fourteenth put the metal detectors up your reaction. Small of the money. In the name of god the most gracious the most compassionate or the issue of the mosque is a major issue it doesnt only concern the palestinians not just the muslim world of the its an issue that concerns humanity and muslims have been praying for hundreds of years in a lot some masculine for the israelis to harm and prevent the palestinians to break goes against the most basic of human rights we see that the Israeli Occupation has resulted in the killing in torturing of the Palestinian People right from its creation if they impose themselves with violence and no doubt this behavior from them will not stop unless there is a severe response not just from the palestinians but also from the muslim world and anyone who defends human rights and who wants justice and peace why are men on a mission i learned to a center on british media it is the palestinians doing the violence and it is called temple mount not a leg some more will not. Be back we see that the western media does not give an accurate portrayal of events and this has a negative impact against their own citizens. They are not happy for happy ha. Ha been happening but he will because the inaccurate coverage doesnt just affect those that are being oppressed and more but its also denies that people of the world demand the truth of what is happening and the people of america and europe supports human rights and oppose oppression so if the coverage is inaccurate this may lead them to support the oppressors and not the oppressed probably for the happy of the israelis have not defined their borders and and they came in occupied palestine and that palestine has been there for hundreds of years journeymen jews have also been living in palestine for the hundreds of years or they were considered as part of the palestinian. Asian at us in the even in iran there are jews who live with freedoms and rights and they are represented in the Iranian Parliament scene jews have lived in muslim lands for hundreds of years along with the same rights as when their lives let me near to sinning marl muslim in muslim one we know that both saudi arabia and qatar have relations with israel why does the Islamic Republic support cut which currently has relations with israel we have proof of the do. Through and loom so. That the sort of the Islamic Republic of iran defense of all those who are oppressed whether it is qatar or saudi arabia if saudi arabia were being oppressed by anyone it is irans duty to defend them apart but here we see that saudi arabia of forcefully imposing demands you thats are unacceptable the saudis want to follow what ever they ordered them to do saudi arabia has done this towards yemen as well and trying to force them under their will and with this is unacceptable at this and its strange that the western nations are supporting saudi arabia with no logic and rationality model of the. Us are odio to their founders for the. Prime minister to resum
