5:01 am
great to have you with us midday here in moscow this is art. and a mom in the u.k. is warning the prime minister trouble is brewing more respect isn't shown to muslims insinuating the country could go the way of france this is after a teacher in northern england left parts of the community outraged by showing cartoons of the prophet muhammad to his class. all we ask for is a bit of respect if one teacher can do it another teach can do it 5 years down the line and we do not want this to be the case otherwise we are not responsible for the actions of some individuals or their mom says that he condemns any assertions that promote violence the teacher who sparked the outrage showed the prophet muhammad caricature during a class debate on blasphemy in his family are now in hiding after receiving death

threats he has apologized but has been suspended some local muslims are demanding the school actually fire him however a petition calling on the school to reinstate him is garnered more than 65000 signatures of the u.k. the farm for education has defended the teacher. it is never acceptable to threaten or intimidate teaches we encourage dialogue between parents and schools when he she has emerged schools are free to include a full range of issues ideas and materials in their curriculum including where they are challenging a controversial subject or they obligations to ensure political balance. of a similar case in france last october led to the brutal murder of some your party a history teacher this was near paris he was beheaded by a terrorist after showing cartoons of the prophet muhammad to his people's. uncles and one of our competitors was murdered because he taught our compassionate

was the victim of an islamist terror attack. to india from christian concern among one sorry political and social commentator a lot tolkien's over the issues raised. this could be very easily turning into some kind of a powder keg and you do not throw that matches into such things we've seen in france and in many european countries the rise of the far right we've seen some 2 tiers of the right system pushing against islam pushing against muslims marginalizing them and it's open season on muslims courage attack them on free speech basis and people make themselves up to be free speech martyrs or somehow muslims become inflamed or they won't fit in western values so what's most alarming
5:04 am
here is that a teacher asked her to go into hiding with police protection because what he's done he's he's discussed a point of discussion about a cartoon and the why the subject of blasphemy he hasn't actually hurt anyone he hasn't actually even threatened any violence and yet there are obviously very real threats of violence against him so much so that the police to protect him and take his family his wife and his children into hiding i think that is very very concerning and i think we need to recover a sense of normality in a sense of people being able to openly discuss and educate people about these things and i've been around the block a few times and had this discussion a few times every time we've had this discussion on free speech and debate we have put down to worst of the ideas racism hatred we know it's not ok to be racist against muslims to make the argument is it alright to be racist or is this racist we need to learn about religion that we need to learn about what people
5:05 am
believe and we need to openly discuss them and so people and super about it let's be very clear about this that discussing a cartoon it's got about how it has nothing to do with basis and it's not racism at all and what's happening here is people are trying to shut down a discussion and using threats of violence really will judge. people work with the english defense league you keep anti muslim interest across europe and the rest of the while to try and demonize muslims marginalize them would have enough you will not win the cultural debate. or is he ok to be poked fun at and be racist against muslims out of the lot of us read what else is and you don't get to be offensive towards us this is not the way a free society should work he should definitely be defended it's all he's done is raise a discussion people should be free to discuss things in class if we're not free to discuss things we have a de facto blasphemy law in the country which is being enforced by a mob rule that threatens violence against people. as another cultural debate
5:06 am
raging across the english channel where a french left wing politician is under fire for saying white people should stay out of discussions on racism critics say the remarks are yet another sign of how us style woke culture is undermining french valleys are to shallow deep in ski has more. the empty white debate has been stirred up once again here in france this time after a black politician waded into a row that's been raging over the student union which admitted it held meetings about discrimination that excluded white people this is what exists it exists is this real union says this is now owed reprove a member of the paris local authority and this standing in the coming elections has added her $0.02 she suggested white people could be allowed into those meetings but only if they keep quiet. i'm not saying anyone should be banned from entering but
5:07 am
they should stay silent and let others speak in issues that concern them her comments. opinion sprung scrambles to deal with a rise in identity politics for those on the right this is seen as an unwelcome american import that undermining universalis french valleys a form of personal culture in my region no resident should be discriminated against for the call of the skin there is no such thing as acceptable racism i will always be a bulwark against those who try to fracture our country others went even further saying that. the unit students' union with the stuff of martin luther king's knowing is. not in luther king would be turning in his grave he who dreamed of living in a country where people would not be judged by the color of this scale but by the qualities of their personality but old reprove us remarks gain support from some on
5:08 am
the left including from the leader of france and by out who said that she had merely undisturbed what a discussion group is politicians have been more than vocal but what do ordinary people think is it. ok to exclude white people from the debate and they say it's racist you know well it's an absolute core i don't know how people can lead you to my such nonsense we should dismantle this racist remarks from scratch. only about it that it's really not you know in your for me it's not acceptable to screwed white people for meetings i view that as racist on of concerts as with i think it's perfectly legitimate to exclude white people from the meetings because it i feel is it's i'm france has always been a country which respects human rights and does not look primarily at the color of people skin. on the of the earth and the numbers are are not personally
5:09 am
concerned about racism but i think it exists see you know me let us know if it were the other way around if the national party or right wing m.p. said that black or arabic people should be quiet during an event dedicated to the victims of terrorism that's what also cause public outrage the entire political class all the media would just if i believed rail against this person and condemn him because it's racist france only sees 3 colors blue white and red it distinguishes between citizens only on their merits and not on their roots race or religion i think this is very serious obviously the statement by audrey paul why it's racist and should be universally condemned there can be no double standards here racism is universal unfortunately there are various forms of racism and hatred and we are faced with this everywhere. i graduated fraud and involuntary manslaughter that's what french pharma giant servia has been found guilty of in one of the country's worst health scandals. the case revolves around the diabetes and
5:10 am
weight loss drug mediator it's believed to cause at least 500 deaths due to heart problems the pill been on the market for 33 years it was used by 5000000 people we heard from someone who took the drug though and now has a prosthetic heart valve. there you called it you know when a person is ruined for 10 years when you we're a mechanical pretty serious and take medication for 10 years to live you can't think this is normal has been going on every day since i retired this is crazy fortunately i called my lawyer who i need right now he's always ready to help us as you can see i came here with my daughter because someone must be with me all i can do is drive 20 to 30 kilometers a day we didn't get what we wanted but my lawyer will continue to pursue this case . for manufacturers been slapped with a fine of almost 3000000 euros in france is national medicine watchdogs been fined for delaying the holt of drugs cells their aides acknowledge it was partly
5:11 am
responsible for the scandal comes amid concerns of pharma companies allegedly lobbying government bodies. survey says that it was unaware of the adverse side effects until the trial had begun but the french doctor who 1st discovered the fatal risks told as the company had been deliberately hiding vital information from patients. it does not give me about the federal debt i have been fighting for 14 years for the fact to be recognized that incredible fraud was committed by a large french manufacturer a pharmaceutical company with a good reputation which secretly released a strong poison on the market and was selling it for more than a decade and totally knew what it was doing it is difficult to find words to describe such actions this is called a crime namely aggravated fraud the fine they have to pay is a punishment is not very high but the amount that will have to be paid as compensation from all the damage to millions of civilians affected by the fraud is still impressive about $200000000.00 euros so the total payments are negligible but
5:12 am
the court's decision in general is frustrating it is not enough. canada has become the latest in a growing list of countries to suspend the astra zeneca coronavirus vaccine because of safety fears the country's immunization advisory committee said that the risks were too high to give the jump to under 50 five's there is substantial uncertainty about the benefit of providing astra zeneca cope with $900.00 vaccine to adults under 55 years of age given that the potential risks associated with v.o.i.p. id crossing particularly at the low estimated rates on the last week the country's drug watchdog it said the job was safe to use and recommended people get it it did however date the label on the vaccine to warn of a risk of blood clots the move comes following recent data from europe the suggests the risk of clots could be as high as one in 100000 or there have been no reports
5:13 am
of cases in canada so far earlier we spoke with a us doctor about the potential risks of new coronavirus vaccines. we really don't have good scientific evidence either that or there's more corruption in some government agencies than in others and there are more conflicts of interest more interest in denying that there are that there are bad side effects i think that people need to understand that they're taking a vaccine at their own risk and the that the manufacturers the distributors the vaccinators everybody is amusin from product liability so if a person dies or has a crippling neurologic disease or some other and verse effect very little if any compensation will be available we have tested this only for a few months and we have not tested it in the population hiatt highest risk so i think that we're pretending you know a lot of things that we just really don't know and we can't right now because not
5:14 am
enough time has passed. so comes to my great crisis of the u.s. southern border shows no sign of letting up media restrictions at overcrowded detention facilities only seem to be increasing public interest in the crisis or the story broke.
5:15 am
chose seemed wrong but all roads just don't all. get to shape out just to. educate and in gains from an equal betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. well done t. doping agency is looking into whether its u.k. wing is guilty of a cover up water also established one british cycling was allowed to run its own inquiry into a rider who tested positive for a banned substance in the build up to the london olympics shadi address dashti has
5:16 am
the story. the united kingdom anti doping agency has now found itself right in the middle of what's being described and dubbed as the latest scandal in british sport so it comes as these allegations have now surfaced surrounding the investigation of an abnormal drug test all over cyclists during the london 2012 olympic games so much so the world anti-doping agency is now weighing in and launching an investigation some of the information provided to wada on this is a significant concern we have asked our independent intelligence and investigations department to look into this matter and to conduct you keen to do going to see further information well it's claimed that u.k. 80 which is of course the body responsible for policing clean sport domestically allegedly allowed british cycling to conduct its own probe after this individual provided a sample with an absolutely on usual amount of nandrolone which is a banned steroid in an out of competition test plausible explanations range from
5:17 am
health issues one end but other ends and explanations include contaminated supplements and that's exactly what waters investigation is all about looking at how likely any of these options really are of course as a reminder under the water code it would be up to u.k. a d. to conduct such a probe at the time however it's now understood that u.k. dia's for the issue can be resolved and is cooperating with water. we are working with the border to investigate claims relating to private testing carried out by british cycling in 2011 u.k. anti doping agency is examining archives to confirm decisions that were taken in 2011 followed due process said by wada now it's claimed that british cycling conducted its own testing absolutely privately and did not then pass on those results to the u.k. a deal so now is saying it's reviewing all of its processes but of course given the length of time between 2012 an hour nearly a whole decade ago it's really making it difficult to connect the dots at this
5:18 am
stage we are unable to give full comment on the story of this stage is the events took place over 10 years ago and none of the senior management team involved have worked for british cycling for some time we're reviewing such archived records that exist from this period and lou that is not a straight forward or quick process we will share the findings with the relevant parties well this is the 2nd scandal to sweep the nation for british cyclists this month or earlier a former british cycling team dr richard freeman was found guilty of not only ordering a banned substance but knowing and believing it was to be used to dope a ride at the time back in 2011 now freeman has since been charged by u.k. deal with 2 anti doping or violations and completely struck off the british medical register as a result as well so not looking too good then this month but of course the timing of all this is particularly bad with lesson 128 days to go before the tokyo games again is really bad timing considering our great britain has always been one of the
5:19 am
more dominant nations nations in the discipline stacking up new murderous medals our various competitions now there is of course serious doubt now cast even in retrospect cast on the performances at the london 2012 olympics and other victories including other competitions like the tour de france. the migrant build up a lot of the. because southwest border is showing no sign of easing but the media is being denied access to detention facilities and this prompted texas senator ted cruz to visit a local center for new comers to see for himself how bad conditions really are when the republican trying to document what he saw he was stopped by a woman who he alleges was a political operative working for the by the ministration. but you were hired 2 weeks ago and you're instructed to ask to not have any pictures taken these respected because the political leadership of the dia just does not want the american people to know even that they were here dancing in the get in front of the
5:20 am
pictures so you know that they were thinking the rules are arbitrary and there is i believe to be a very good people and i really like them and i want to fix this situation we are going to get an iteration you want a $400.00 responsible for these conditions now at this point the biden ministration continues to say what it is said all along which is that it is committed to transparency however when the time comes to actually let that transparency happen we have some pretty strong excuses coming from jen psaki of the white house spokesperson here's what we've heard we are mindful of the fact that we are in the middle of a pandemic we want to keep these kids safe keep the staff safe but we are absolutely committed to transparency and providing access to media to the border patrol facilities and we're working to get that done as soon as we can so this is being set up and you have access to everything once we get to see you ok just to be clear how soon will that be mr president i don't know. to be clear now
5:21 am
at this point we've got some voices that seem to be determined not to portray what's happening on the border as a crisis this is a memo from the associated press about how to describe the situation we should avoid or at the least be highly cautious about referring to the present situation as a crisis on our own although we may quote others using that language while the associated press says it may not actually fit the dictionary definition of a crisis a recent poll taken among the u.s. public shows that 76 percent of americans believe the situation on the u.s. border is indeed a crisis the worst charge against them right now is mistreatment of these people these young people and children at the border someone claiming as jen psaki claims transparency is what you'll get and dignity and. specht is what these people get and it's just completely opposite of that they're not in a dignified situation they've got thousands of people sleeping elbow to needy and
5:22 am
big toed to nose you know stacked on the floor so tight they have to sleep on their side and they can't roll over and that's a complete embarrassment for the by the ministration they're not even testing those people and i'm sure thousands of them do have various viral loads and are bringing them across to infect ordinary americans who are not as yet completely vaccinated so that's another great danger that is being forced on the american people in the name of this fraud because they want this story off the headlines when you ask biden when the transparency is going to be delivered by his administration he says i don't know they're up to something else this is not a matter of trying to help impoverished people from from 3rd world countries become americans and reap the benefits of residence here this is not about that. the kind of us pandemic is pushing brazil's health care system to the point of collapse the wouldn't coming from medics is the daily infection rate tops 100000
5:23 am
with daily deaths approaching the full 1000 mark t.'s nikki ever reports. while much of the world uses restrictions and vaccines to try to tame the coronavirus brazil's outbreak is worse than it has ever been with almost all states is intensive care unit near or at full capacity but patients continuing to arrive in their droves brazil already accounts for one quarter of the world's daily coronavirus deaths new covert 9000 cases in the country topped 100001 march 25th with the weekly death rate doubling to $15000.00 in just one month and with only 2 percent of the population vaccinated for figure is approaching the worst level seen by the united states so how did things get so bad well brazil's 2 biggest cities have pleaded for people to stay home and the state runs fine since
5:24 am
technology institute has called for a 14 day lock down to reduce transmission but as we've all seen such measures are only as strong as the compliance of citizens. and this is however just the tip of the iceberg of brazil's covidien flicked and suffering unemployment is peaking and with emergency cash payments from the federal government now being cut off the result has plunged millions into poverty or is it just look if we could work we wouldn't be dependent on emergency aid we would need to come here and take from others who also need help at the moment i'm behind in my payments my car has broken down we only leave home to come here and get food no noise here is no sanitizer in the favelas not a small asks when you need to fight against hunger when you need to fight for survival so we really need help from society to maintain this operation so we can

our normal lives it's a tiny step forward for a man who continues to promote unproven covert 19 kills while his nation suffers and now as a more contagious variant of the virus rampages across brazil from all get it too little too late or too much no subsumes but i want to say we don't know where brazil will end up and we can see the world looking at the country with astonishment and fear these go to says great but. this calls growing germany to impose another strict coronavirus lock down the country's already struggling catering industry is on tenterhooks over what the future may hold and friedman ska german burger chain owner is just one of many business owners struggling to stay afloat. himself would you go to school in june 1st looked down there was still motivations
