A protest group over its criticisms of the royal family then we look at how the social media giant has acted very differently though in similar cases elsewhere similarly in lockstep with us foreign policy. On both the democratic and Republican Conventions pass an increasing disarray with democrats refusing to back their Party Platform and the g. O. P. Not even presenting an official platform at all. When wednesday morning the 26th of august here live from arties will be moscow its kevin i am with you for the next hour thanks for chatting to us and i hope youll stay with me as to take you through all the stories this morning hundreds of protesters in the u. S. City of commotion defying a state of Emergency Care few designed to try to cool days of unrest the rallies are up today after police shot a black man multiple times reportedly suggesting one person is now also been killed and 2 others injured in those overnight clashes. Think. The tensions are so high and so bubbling and theres so many different splinter groups. Going head to head there well. Tonight people marched through the city and then as the sun went down people started to line up along the back in front of the security people courthouse people began to push on the barrier that police said are simply taking out a bit more about it gradually talking to people throwing Water Bottles and heavy objects as he only used their arm and being told that he and corral everyone so your gas be thrown concussion grenades rubber bullets tear gas and being thrown from the group of the court house eventually everyone was pushed out of the court or in front of the court house away from the park down the street and there were basically like a slow moving down between protesters and police there while i go shopping changed between i really protesters and other protesters i thought one guy on that route to stop ok and he would run into a Police Armored vehicle on protesters but i but i can confirm at least one person shot and i know next this a warning you may find the video disturbing it shows Police Shooting jacob blake from behind his family say the 29 year olds now paralyzed from the waist down and most of all if hes watching the whole show 2 of the insurer says the current protests the hardly surprising. And the only people would be surprised at the people who believe the issues of institutional racism in this country i mean i remember back originally when black lives matter 1st started were Trayvon Martin and then you know you had mike brown or gardner and you had case after case of these shootings of young black men and women across the country were officers were never really held accountable for that and you had protests and grab these kind of false you know. Dog and pony show styled fixes of the institutional racism without really addressing it without really you know taking it to task and really changing the culture in that major in this country but that allows these things to happen so no it doesnt surprise me that were seeing once again george floyd now this man in wisconsin its a pattern thats not going to change until there is real actual honest change in this country and that doesnt come from just politicians getting on t. V. And promising reforms would never happen is also angry at what i can oh sure offices still have no body cameras which it would of course of shed more light of what exactly happened despite city authorities approving. 27 supplies have been delayed for at least another 2 years from now but he can rule as in wisconsin where an inconsistent 2 offices dont have all of them in other parts of the state they not only wear them but must keep the footage on them for months just in case an investigation is needed. And small notes that could have been a close incredibly useful in the jacob blake case. It is institutional failure and by the way that it is not true that there are not clear regulations in fact the governor of wisconsin has set out very clear guidelines for how body cameras are to be used how long footage from those body cameras is to be kept in Public Record when thats all been laid out so that the problem is when you have a situation like what we exactly what we had in this Community Just the other night this is why body cameras are so badly needed over and over we see it because an officer tells one story of the person who it is in confrontation with police tells a different story witnesses tell a different story and then you have the story of those who manage it in some cases certainly not at all but in some cases get to use their cell phones to capture any. Version of what happened right because the the still camera video that we see from a distance is not the whole story its a snippet the moment of it but body cameras are supposed to protect the officer and the person whos being confronted but theres been such a push to not use body cameras to run away from that technology that it becomes disingenuous when there is a situation like this and now the mayor says oh its a budget issue its not a budget issue its a lack of will issue. In the u. K. The b. B. C. Has unintentionally opened up with the bait about traditions and britains colonial past in the wake of the black lives Matter Movement itself the public group comes to confirm its removing lyrics to 2 putting songs at its flagship comes at the problems 1st off 18th century song rule britannia as been penned penned for slavery links well land of hope and glory penned in 1001. 00 plugs the British Empire british Prime MinisterBoris Johnson insists the country shouldnt be ashamed of its history though. I think its time we stopped. Embarrassment about our history about author additions and about our culture and we stop these. Bite recrimination and witness i want to get that off my chest the b. B. C. Points out the lyrics will return next year once they can feature singers in a covert free environment but our debate guests showed the concert itself divides opinion lyrics or not. Prince of multicultural country has anthems written in the. Early 18th century prefix of britains imperial past so well and good maybe this reclaiming museums where they rightly belong but i think on the National Broadcast we dont want to hear that sort of stuff and certainly somebody my background if you are black or asian or from one of the commonwealth countries then the implication that brits will never be slaves doesnt hold quite true for you and neither you or the sentence no i think should go almost everybody in the country likes that and they enjoyed this up in the one night a year of the last night of the problems its been going on since 8095. 00 so thats when the problem started so its a carnival culture its a part of our heritage and they should state really its not the place of people who have just started working for the b. B. C. To state that they can stop us singing britains a multicultural country is not a country. A land of hope and glory and how can we pay be patriotic to a country that formally because black pretty citizens as we saw it when ross county we want to have a real debate about the nature of citizenship among them compared to helping her to try and suggest that this country treats everybody with equality before the laureus complete hogwash in fact were an Unequal Society and a deeply Racialized Society hasnt been proven by Research Time and time again singing songs about touching and then we need to find a new tune and you would signal with them that reflect the modern realities of britain in the 21st century in this country in the United Kingdom there is nothing going on its the same as this you know its a kingdom its one of the best places in the world the black and brown people to live its not a racist country this now there is systemic racism simply isnt true look like i got on well im a London Assembly member you. Weve got an indian secretary youve got in india the chancellor of the exchequer yeah no i do that you know its not all white people to say to black people this is a wonderful country no racism doesnt exist its for black people white people actually this is what we think a new well meaning member response of black people when they surveyed by ipsos mori and others in the post black life Muscle Movement is a pretty nice remains a racist country so much like the sort of romantic. Drivel that we just 30 relation to this being some sort of wonderful meritocracy of anti racism in the b. B. C. Culture reflected changing culture of the times and we see programs removed from the b. B. C. Like Love Thy Neighbor and god knows what else and there will be more of that to come up salute he sure and this is just another element of that that was something completely different i wouldnt agree with that were not talking about but were talking about last night of the constitution and yet what if the b. B. C. Wants diversity you find that you have diversity but youve got to have tradition in that youve got a silly by British Culture not every other culture. And thats whats so wrong about this. Human rights advocates the fear is that social media giant facebook is blocking access to a 1000000 strong protest group in thailand over the groups criticisms of the countrys king tired right now as witnessing mass prodemocracy rallies with some calling for reform of the monarchy there Facebook Says it would rather not shut down the group that is being pressured by tire thora tease the social media behemoths is filing a legal challenge against officials then however bear in mind in other countries facebook has no qualms it seems whatsoever about Challenging Authority 30 Senior Correspondent greg as dave examines what may be behind the apparent double standards. This is an entirely new paradigm where we want. The birth of a new type of censorship customised tailored censorship what you say no longer masses it no longer matters where youre from what matters is who you say it against. Thailand has a very specific law its called the less majestic and what it does is criminalize any negative speech towards the king all the queen or the air or the 2nd there and so on so the rule family cannot be criticised by anyone if you beg criticize the queens dress for example or the kings haircut you face 15 years in jail 15 years this now apparently includes International Criticism so im think book for example which just banned uprooted more crecy group of 1000000. 00 people for hurting the kings feelings after careful review facebook has determined that we are compelled to restrict access to content which the Thai Government has deemed to be illegal 23rd century you cant criticize a person because his father gave him a shiny crown and told him he was special having said that there are many many people in thailand who almost worship the rule family which is their right among their fans too in fact is the u. S. Secretary of state you know this is a long shares relationship church a set of 200 years and i know we will remain great and good friends for the next 2 centuries as well we could report mr pompei of stark raving duplicity and hypocrisy after all mr pump arrows happy to cozy up to the saudi king for example it is of dictators who regimes that mr pompei will facebook have a problem with its where those autocrats are from. Remember. The United States government shouting itself or server what was happening in Hong Kong FreedomJustice Liberty they shouted over and over again their facebook promoted through democracy groups and crackdown banned the proof china groups a slew of them we causally working to detect and stop this type of activity because we dont want our services to be used to manipulate people the United States and other free nations will continue to protect our peoples from the long arm of beijings authoritarianism i mentioned earlier customized censorship this is the result censorship tailored to a time and the place new one rule for all so you can fight for freedom so long as youre fighting for freedom from someone that the United States doesnt like if youre fighting for freedom from othello whos prepared to ruin your and your familys life because you wrote a mean comment about him well you cant do that see he is pump alles pow. And here we are europes last dictator they call him lucian ko same story really a part of the population loves him a part of the population hates him and pump ale has a picture of them hugging each other really does have a collection not one theyre still trying to decide by the way washington facebook is this an autocrat who is good for america and should be through the prove democracy groups under the bus and label them haters. Who is at a disadvantage though his daddy see he didnt give them a crowd and say that it protects against rowdy peasants. Meantime it seems my point pay also faces flak at home the Democratic Party is pledging a probe into his appearance by video link at the Republican National convention rooting for trump while abroad in his official capacity as secretary of state. This president has led bold initiatives in nearly every corner of the world today because of the president s determination and leadership that isis caliphate is wiped out its gone just 2 weeks ago the president brokered a historic peace deal between israel and the United Arab Emirates this is the deal that our grandchildren will read about in their history books President Trump has put his america 1st vision into action may not have made him popular in every foreign capital but its worked however in doing that making that appearance pompous apparently broken the very rules he set for state Department Employees and memorandum bans officials from endorsing a candidate at a convention rally or similar gathering all that said though political analyst Alessandro Bruno told us pump had to be because the stakes are simply just too high. Is violating. American called the hatch act which prevents officials of an administration to speak in favor of that administration on bail himself i believe wrote a letter. To his diplomatic staff about a month ago saying they should refrain from political activity of this kind this is not a diplomatic move but what about what is diplomatic about the trumpet ministration they risk by elating the hatch act because the potential benefits in voting terms are greater. Now which is less than 3 months to go to the us election increasingly blatant cracks are appearing in both the republican and democratic Party Platforms covering up the smalling caleb maupin. The conventions mark the final stage of the u. S. President ial election so they mark the moment when the 2 major parties come together they rally their forces select their candidates and then go all in for a big win in november the conventions are expected to be a moment of unity however divisions are pretty clearly there beneath the surface for example 25 percent of the Democratic Partys delegates voted against the plan for governance known as the Sanders Biden unity platform we need a platform that works to read our society for pressure and greed unfortunately in my view these platforms doesnt do enough republicans decided to not even have a platform and just focus their convention on renominating donald trump and interestingly the list of republicans who are supporting joe biden is growing now many big name conservatives as well as former elected officials are on the list im a lifelong republican in normal times Something Like this would probably never happen but these are not normal times and these are certainly not normal times a pandemic is sweeping the country with many parts of the nation still on lockdown protests against racism are on the rise and poverty is increasing donald trump is now hoping to win over voters with you show you are yes you want to really drive them crazy you say 12 more years. A man who cares a man who loves america and all americans a man who looks tired. Even tonight during this nomination for president strong be the leader who will rebuild the promise of america and ensure that every citizen can realize there are American Dream democrats are not really offering much of an alternative just a list of some rather vague promises ill be had hour of the light not the darkness the end of this chapter of american darkness began here tonight. As love and hope and light joined in the battle for the soul of the nation neither candidate is really offering any solutions for how to get the country out of the big economic social and Health Care Crisis meanwhile National Unity is not very high on the list either many are speculating that donald trump wont accept the results if he loses and we clinton has just advised joe biden not to concede to donald trump under any circumstances joe biden should not concede under any circumstances eventually i do believe he will win if we dont get it right after the elections it looks like well be back to square one the big problems underlying these divisions and on rast are not going to be elected away it will mop and artsy new york 20 percent of the morning here in moscow so plenty more to come the news no one wanted to hear though the 1st confirmed case of a person diagnosed with corona virus so yes the 2nd todd has been
