Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein saxophone. For myself and everyone here in the news room while coming back for joining us this monday evening. On a fast story for you now dozens of people convicted of terra fences in the u. K. Who released audio set to have that case is reviewed thats according to Prime Minister Boris Johnson and it comes off to it was revealed fridays in London Bridge a taka had himself been released study. Any other legal are in the same he would show load out early and there was no in this has nothing to do with parole there was nothing to do with probation many legally the same is legally there already but this is really become a talking point over the weekend since that attack on friday on London Bridge towards the side where the city of london financial district is now of course the person involved a small car and somebody who had already been found guilty of involvement in a plot to blow up the London Stock Exchange but then was released as part of a scheme and there were attempts to try to rehabilitate him and put him back into society if you will that it was actually one of those events which were organized for not just him as a convicted terrorist but other acts offenders to attend and it was that of reportedly that he decided to launch his attack an attack killing 2 people in injuring 3 others on London Bridge and as i said that has over the weekend sparked a number of political accusations back and forth about whos to blame for this terrorist being on the streets these people darron should never ever be let out of prison unless were absolutely convinced they do not have the jihadi virus people dont want history lessons after this terrorist atrocity what people want is to put victims 1st and keeping communities safe 1st and if he had been sentenced under our rules he would still be in jail today no terrorist should be released without it being properly assessed whether or not they still pose a risk to the Public School and we have indeed automatic Early Release for prisoners sentenced to more than 4 years in prison so theres plenty of political fallout as the different parties point the finger at each other the conservatives try. Say that this Early Release scheme is ultimately the responsibility of the labor party while the labor say well firstly it was a conservative government under which this terrorist was released but also that the conservative budget cuts impacted policing meant that terrorists like this its much harder to find now johnson over the weekend has been advocating for a policy of locking terrorists up and throwing away the key if you will even his own foreign secretary dominic robb confirms that the conservative party have a policy of a minimum 14 years sentence for dangerous terrorists and theres no guarantee that even would have made a difference in this case because this. Was sentenced to 16 years and was released early so there will be those who are calling for that to be changed while the leader of the labor party during the corbin is arguing that each case should be taken on its merits and that you cant apply a blanket scheme all round so many different opinions as we head towards a poll in just 10 days now that will decide everything from meet the u. K. s education and environment policy and also how to fight crime and terrorism here on our team we put the issue of Early Release the debate. Since september the 11th weve released 500. 00 terrorists who have committed acts of terrorism in the u. K. That these 2 men a and clearly we need to toughen up our laws but whats at the end youve got to remember that these people are quite quite so unusual of whilst we need to control them we also need to be very clear that we cannot infringe on civil liberties. Because they are so important because these post isis post liberal post in lighten if you like terror attacks happening on home soil theyve often come from homegrown terrorists radicals criminals whatever you like to call them but they have been institutional failures the state Security Apparatus can do better should do better and isnt doing better and we have to ask questions why i remember the police the Security Services the courts are attempting to prevent these violent terrorists from attacking this country the question here is what are we doing about those people who are involved in terrorist organizations but have not yet committed serious terrorist offenses i say membership of any terrorist organization should have a life imprisonment tariff that would resolve the what do you mean member should know even know who carries a good person i mean how are you lot buses are not terrorists and friends on drawdown going on there you know be under its own country i dont have a terrorist organization ive got no problem on terrorism the hard line thing to saying like throw away the key or terrorism should terrorists go to prison forever thats absolutely fine you know or even open up a dialogue on is Capital Punishment appropriate some people in some cases ok however what we have to do is ply apply fairly across the board if we are allowing entrapment cases where people are sent to syria and then they come back we reduce their citizenship we transduced their rights you talk about civil rights and human rights what about the Bethnal Green schools about 14 or 15 were transported to syria if you join a Terror Organization we have to find out why we have to tackle these issues properly were talking about people going to syria. Or going to Training Camps in pakistan people are engaging in acts of terror whether that be fund raising where that be terrorist training or whether it be actual acts of terrorism in terms of violence those sorts of people should no more be treated reasonably than somebody who turns around and says i only murdered this woman because it was a crime of passion the law needs to change membership of terrorist organizations to hold a maximum penalty of life in prison and then judges can choose whether that maximum is appropriate on a case by case basis that to me seems sensible. Now for a spot of American News a u. S. Journalist claims friend his friend and former boss rather Hillary Clinton distanced herself from him over his investigation of the now disgraced hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein. Its remarkable how quickly even people with a long relationship with you will turn if you threaten the centers of power or the sources of funding around them ultimately there are a lot of people out there who operate in that way theyre beholden to powerful interests and if you go up against those interests you become radioactive very quickly ron and far waqt of clintons special adviser for years including while she was still secretary of state how he finds dean meanwhile donated tens of thousands of dollars to clintons 26000. 00 president ial campaign before the Sexual Assault scandal unfolded don of course the next stop looks at how Investigative Journalism in general is becoming harder in the age of big corporate media. Ollywood often portrays investigative journalists as knights in shining armor risking it all to protect the truth is that legal what is it is that we do it for a living. We dont. Leave the country. I was doing my job you never want. Your gas tank youre going to tell this story were going to tell it right and reality though snooping around the lives of influential people could have serious repercussions it could land you in trouble even if were talking about hollywood royalty like ronan farrow he was essential to the new yorkers 2017 investigation into rape allegations against Harvey Weinstein the same one that received the Pulitzer Prize and through the me too movement into the mainstream before his journalism career farrow worked as a lawyer at one point serving under the then secretary of state Hillary Clinton as her advisor for global youth issues they made quite the team that is until farah began digging into weinsteins dirty laundry did you feel pressure from Hillary Clinton on and her staff raised concerns about the fact that i was working on this story about one of her most significant donors that they had bungler of hollywood money not to mention pharaohs original collaborator and b c refused to publish the weinstein revelations all together but this isnt even the only major story that the Mainstream Media big wigs have tried to smother a. B. C. Anchor amy roebuck recently went public about her investigation into geoffrey epsteins pedophile operation which was killed by the network 3 years ago it was unbelievable what we had we had everything. I tried for 3 years to get it on to no avail and now its coming out and i think well of revelations what we had it was unreal there were going back to you know. Get. Your shit so is that it have the rich and powerful become so strong. Long that Investigative Journalism has no place in the 21st century you probably cant reach. You know 1020000000 people with investigative stories that really attack the wealthy and powerful when you do Investigative Journalism which i do for a career in a living and you bump up against the rich and powerful especially if if your publisher is friendly with those who are rich and powerful you. You know you pay a price you either are taken off the beat and given Something Else to do like right of it you areas or you are you know in the worst case youre fired. Or youre sort of let know that you know your career is not going anywhere there so you should look elsewhere. Now for a story on the strengthening of tie must go and basing how we want a 3000 kilometer pipeline to the power of siberia its going to carry russia not til death to china.

Our Relations Center in the new era and i hope russia and china will do more projects of the sky and projects that will serve the interests of all countries and benefit tell people. That. The pipeline took 5 years to build and if the baker Washington Investment project yet robin calls for proport from beijing. The 3000 kilometer long power off us siberia gas pipeline and has been commissioned by russia and china on a monday the ambitious project has united the Northern Hemisphere 2nd largest gas producer along with the worlds 2nd largest gas Consumer Market economic unity and friendship between neighbors or russia and china. And for china it couldnt be more timely the country has been using increasing amounts of gas and its a trend that looks set to stick around for. The shes a major strategic project for Bilateral Energy cooperation it is of great significance to deepening incorporation between the 2 countries and integrating our interests now russia is also quite pleased with this project. We have started with the biggest destruction projects in the world there will be nothing bigger in the sphere for years to come because this is not about breaking records this is an extremely important project for this russia and china but we all know that energy is a stake its all fake and there is no pleasing everyone especially when someones been cut out of the deal now the Worlds Largest producer and consumer of natural gas the United States is now perhaps regretting driving su outcasts countries together after waging an economic war with one and slapping sanctions on the other the us ongoing trade war with. China has driven beijings consumption of americas flagship liquefied natural gas right down to gas like no other apparently this one has a uniquely american flavor increasing export capacity from the freeport liquefied natural gas project is critical to spreading freedom gas throughout the world by giving americas allies a diverse and affordable source of Clean Energy China and russia as energy corp is a double whammy for the United States which is also seeing some of its other gas consumers surging their backs on it in a matter of months and other Energy Pipeline north stream soon will start flooding europe with russian gas at a faster cheaper and greener rate that its american alternative washington must be scratching his head at how some european leaders could shun its uniquely flavored gas in favor off a closer ties with moscow despite its best efforts to convince them otherwise were taking germany were rejecting the french what was taking both of these gusty and numerous other countries go out and make a pipeline deal was right with it thing but it isnt the dollars into the coffers of russia thats one of the concerns that President Trump has about nordstrom to why europe would voluntarily tie itself even more to Russian Energy supplies and we make a tough case about ensuring that germany doesnt become dependent on Russian Energy we dont want europes Energy Supplies to be dependent on whether mir putin spoke to Hong Kong Based political scientist joseph chang he told us why this is a win win project for both wash up on china. This is significant for both china and russia for china even sun law in terms of Energy Security in terms so diversification of use energy so says front if you do east africa and so on to the russian siberia it is also significant for russia because it means that it is less deep and under the repeated market it opens up the china market with tremendous potential and infrastructure built can also be used to supply oil and natural gas to south korea and japan so there is a lot of potential to develop the asia pacific market in support of the development of Russian Far East and eastern siberia russia. Had in the Program Resident obama backed off the form of mining town in canada out against plans to change its name to its negative connotations but im much more up to this quick break. Out what holds a hinge to do something to them. They put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be present injury. Or something want to. Have to go right to the person this is what will move for 3 of the more beautiful. Interesting holes in the waters of the house. Pressured more. Organized labor has been demolished in america and the average income for americans hasnt budged at all in 2030 years because they were deemed neutered. From their ability to compete for capital labor has no seat at the table labor has no seat at the central bank labor has been abandoned the jobs have been shipped overseas and wall street now gets all the crap they get 100 percent of the capital every dollar printed by the fed goes directly to wall street bypasses labor bypasses wages. Welcome back and a new story from the south office to channel the front has been compared to nazi propaganda by a french media outlet france requested a right to defend itself in the outlets publication but a power support has rejected that news in the joining us in the studio right now is if youre trying to. Break it down for us whats whats the box story here so well of course you can use different words to describe the cartoons by the infamous french magazine sharlee it depends on what kind of person you are the way you treat their style of satire from amusing to ugly from bold and daring to outright offensive and provocative so it all goes down to where you draw the red lines and as you said there has been a red line for our french language sister channel r. T. France because back in february they did come up with a story about the sister channel and they went as far as to compare it with a nazi propaganda magazine and if you look at the pictures from that magazine usually its all about the cartoons this time the pictures didnt look very pleasant for fans of r t but the problem was about the text. Then you schneiderman the head of out as your image went to artie front to frederick tethers show band from banning where he chatted with emmanuel talked about the yellow vests the only small criticism he was embarrassed by the very name of the channel russia today a name that makes it clear where its funding comes from the fortnightly magazine signal published by the wehrmacht command in occupied countries did the same when it gave column space to cocteau and ferragamo this appearance of normality at one end of the telescope is essential to the success of the propaganda operation. Clearly we do remember that february was the time when the Yellow Vests Movement was outed speak and whether the mainstream french audience likes it or not whether the fish bowls like it or not whether their media likes it or not the coverage of the yellow vests was extensive on r t friends but clearly many would say that this is not a reason for charlie of dough to compare our tea friends to something that was really used by nazi germany for their propaganda during the years of war this magazine that was called signal it had a massive circulation and it was a deliberate tool that the nazi germany was using extensively in the countries that it occupied including france of
