Power. Helps release the full potential of a global conference for Media Freedom on the way in london. On a wednesday. To world news from the international a us federal judge has told washington that it must stop alleging that a russian accused of election meddling was funded by the kremlin or face a range of potential sanctions the court found that such unsubstantiated claims against the Internet Research agency which are not included in the 28. 00 indictment against it risk prejudicing the jury when i guess the report. The mulu report the us investigation the media everyone accuses russia of carrying out a sweeping Systematic Campaign meddling campaign in the us election into in 2016 they did it via 2 methods the 1st one was. Intelligence Agency Hackers g. R. U. Had his who broke into the d. N. C. Systems they allege stole a bunch of embarrassing democrat emails and then released them causing again embarrassment for the democrats all again allegedly russia denies all of this the 2nd part of the operation is the scribe William Burns the special counsel report outlines 2 main efforts by the russian government to influence the 2016 election. First the report details efforts by the Internet Research agency a Russian Company with close ties to the russian government to sow social discord among American Voters through decision from asian and social Media Operations he said Russian Operations or russian state the russian government operation the Internet Research agency they called the troll farm in the United States in the media theyre accused of spreading disinformation of Backing Trump denigrating Hillary Clinton spreading fake news meddling in the election theyre currently fighting a legal battle against the United States government and the judge has ordered the government to refrain from linking these companies the Internet Research agency and the russian government because in the Mueller Report william said in the new report that they link this company to the russian government theyre carrying out orders on behalf of the russian government they offered proof saying the head of this Internet Research agency is an ally of lied to me a putin that theyve had a number of government contracts and they leave it at that that. Supposed to establish that the company was acting on behalf of the extension of the russian government in the indictment the legal document with the charges with the accusations they make new search link they call them a private entity a private company a federal judge now ordering the government to stop trying to link these private companies the Internet Research agency which theyve called troll farm and the russian government because it is significant and prejudicial until a trial in the future stablish is otherwise if it does so last hour i talked to a new york based journalist daniel who told me that he believes the ruling is problematic for the miller report the court has pointed up a great contradiction or a weakness in mueller muellers whole methodology the americans assume that russia and russians are the same thing but theyre not the half of that Mueller Reports thesis is now been invalidated by the other half of the special counsels. Case also very likely untrue because the scenario that mueller outlines in his report just doesnt make sense the chronology does not add up so essentially what happens is we have the 2 parts muellers case now really just dont add up to anything at all theyre both equally weak. The British Ambassador to the United States has announced hes stepping down after a series of highly critical comments that he made about the trump ministration which were leaked to the press in confidential cables sent back to officials in london the diplomat described the white house as dysfunctional inept and chaotic. Since the leak of official documents from this embassy there has been a great deal of speculation surrounding my position and that you ration of my remaining term as ambassador i want to put an end to that speculation the Current Situation is making it impossible for me to carry out my role as i would like britains most senior diplomat has been forced to resign and that comes after donald trump the president of the United States that he no longer be able to deal with him hes emails to the United Kingdom they in fact were leaked and they describe Donald Trumps administration as inept now this political scandal has been on ruffling over the last few days Prime Minister to resign may and the labor leader Jeremy Corbyn they were able to publicly back him in fact they said it was regrettable that he was forced to resign and theresa may went a step further in the house of commons earlier today explaining that british diplomats and politicians should be able to stand up for the principles they believe in if indeed they feel theyre under attack this is a matter of great regret that he has felt it necessary to leave his position. The. Whole cabinet rightly gave its full support to the kim on tuesday. So kim has secured has given a lifetime of service to the United Kingdom and we owe him an enormous debt of gratitude. Now it must be said that these robust assessments are in fact routine in secure Diplomatic Communications but of course donald trump has taken to his favorite platform of social media off twitter to vocalize his anger in fact call in sick him to fit guy i know it must be says that number and house prices distance itself from. Assessments and communications by saying that they do not really support the u. K. Governments opinions having said that its all up to number 10 north koreas in may and what they have to say in fact all eyes are now on Boris Johnson or jeremy how. And the 4th one of the 2 will become the next Prime Minister and both of them have very different opinions when it comes to this political saga the what he ambassador that the u. K. For we stood upon the United States is not someone we are thrilled with a very stupid guy he should speak to his country and Prime Minister may about their failed breaks in negotiation and not be upset with my criticism of how badly it was handled donald trump friend speak frankly so i will these comments disrespectful and wrong to our Prime Minister and my country you said the u. K. U. S. Alliance was the greatest in history and i agree but i need to treat each other with respect as threes im a is always done with you ive got a Good Relationship with the white house and ive had no embarrassment in saying that the United States is has been will be for the foreseeable future our number one political military friend well there you had the gaffe prone guy Boris Johnson with his usual explicit flair and of course this has angered many in the house of commons who are deeply critical of Boris Johnson starts in fact that also includes the foreign 1 Office Minister said alan duncan hes accused mr johnson of throwing the ambassador under a bus now we do know that the British Government has announced a full scale investigation into how these unvarnished 1 thoughts of the kim derrick ended up on the front pages of a National Newspaper over the weekend following that many really are enraged and they really do believe that this is a very bad day for british diplomacy a very bad day for angloamerican relations because they consider the former now ambassador of the u. K. To the United States as a man who has been hailed with the height of professionalism and class and the latest addition of going underground r. T. A former White House Communications director tells Afshin Rattansi that he believes the British Ambassador was the victim of a political hit job inside the Foreign Office we asked afshan earlier who were if anyone might stand to benefit from so. Departure. Well it goes Boris Johnson presumably the new Prime Minister of this country in jus weeks time was the foreign secretary and had access to all manner of the intelligence operators but of course in a sense this is also mysterious and i did ask and hes going to be about this we knew through Edward Snowden who is daken asylum in moscow that the 5 eyes project indeed the National Security agency they have access to encrypted emails all around the world why did it take a leak from london to a british newspaper to inform donald trump the britains man in washington had such a low opinion of donald trump do they not know these things without people here for whatever political reasons for whatever whatever hit me and reasons they can they just get it from surveillance do they really need it leaked because of internal politics here that is about the succession after to resume in downing street. They one of the global conference for Media Freedom is being held in london cohosted by britain and canada however not all media were allowed through the doors as r. T. And russias Sputnik News Agency were barred from the party a free media both protects society from the abuse of power and helps release the full potential of a nation signing factors and making speeches is an awesome they must make sure that their laws respect Media Freedom they far more like to reduce journalists is simple and effective and government in many countries are Getting Better at destroying different bricks. Than that was. Still less. And that same gun would be use against the politicians if we dont stand up and fight for Media Freedom 60 minutes is the thousands of reports and thousands of esteemed members of Civil Society and academics are all due to attend this inaugural conference on Media Freedoms around the world its hosted by the u. K. And the canadian governments here in london one of the special guests is a certain clooney the International Human rights lawyer also the wife to the hollywood Actor George Clooney shes been appointed britains special envoy on Media Freedoms here at this event the gates to which are just behind me but guess who isnt going to be inside thats right its me here i am billy no mates outside left out in the cold because myself and my artsy colleagues and also colleagues at sputnik which is the other russian News Organization that broadcast in english weve all been banned from attending the global conference on Media Freedoms we applied in good time for press accreditation like all the other Media Outlets and we received a pretty standard stock reply said unfortunately we have been unable to approve your application to a credit as media i think that should have been a warning sign but we thought maybe we just theyve run out of space theres nothing specifically about us in that reply but behind our backs other news channels got a very different message we have not accredited or sputnik because of their active role in spreading disinformation well its not possible to accommodate all requests for recruited fiction journalists from across the worlds media are attending the conference including from russia the russian government is. Impressed with this lack of hospitality to say the least the Russian Embassy here in london has written to the Foreign Office to express its expressed resolute disagreement with what has taken place and Russias Foreign Ministry spokesperson maria zahar of are also weighed in take a listen the organizers demonstrated their true intentions in 2 to Media Freedom by turning the event into the means of achieving opportunistic political and we believe other countries and responsible journalists will draw their appropriate conclusions and we hope that human rights n. G. O. S and Relevant International actions hes will not shy away from stating their position. And the r. T. News organization itself has released a statement take a listen it takes a particular brand of hypocrisy to advocate for freedom of press and inconvenient voices and slandering alternative media suddenly the world has learned to expect just that from the u. K. Foreign office are not the only journalists that cant attend the global conference on Media Freedoms i dont want to compare myself to Julian Assange but the editor of wiki leaks is currently incarcerated in a prison. And there is a small demonstration here calling for his release chanting freedom to Julian Assange and now julian the songes mother found out about r c not being allowed to attend and shes tweeted her response take a listen to why she thinks we havent been allowed maybe r. T. Will still listen practicing Media Freedom by reporting the facts of the political persecution of my son journalist julian the sunshine nor to norty dont you realize you are supposed to get Us Government clearance 1st then and only then are you free to publish one more important thing to note here which i think is quite curious. Is that all that russian state funded news outlets which broadcast in russia say some colleagues of mine here in london has been allowed they have been accredited and they have been inside attending their conference as for me im out here ive got my eyes are less the same restaurant. Former british m. E. P. Stephen wolf says the b. B. C. Had r. T. On all that different but london is sending a clear message to moscow. Well i think also use been singled out obviously because its seen by the Foreign Office and many politicians both here in the United Kingdom in europe and the United States as being the voice in vehicle of the russian government will want to argue the b. B. C. In many ways is the voice of the british establishment particularly if you look at the way that the European Union and the referendum and the brics issue is being discussed upon by the b. B. C. So i think what it is is the Foreign Office is very clearly making a statement to president putin and the russian establishment that we will not have your voice listened to in europe and we will try and stop you we can. Increasing numbers of people with diabetes in the United States say they have no choice but to go to canada in order to get affordable insulin a group we spoke to spent 15 hours on a bus trip to buy their medication where it costs a 10th of what it does in the u. S. So this is when i just went to c. V. S. In minneapolis minnesota. The retail price of that bile is 340. 00 when i went to london ontario to pick it out at the walmart pharmacy there. In us dollars the retail price was 26. 00 so there is a huge price discrepancy and so for so Many Americans they just simply cant afford that i have never had to personally ration insulin but from the high cost of insulin i have had to go into debt because of it ive had to put it on credit cards ive had to reach out to family members to help me pay for it because it has gotten too expensive that i cant cover and. Because that astronomical cost but i also realize there are people that are not as fortunate as me and they dont have family members they can reach out to that can help bail them out according to the Us Diabetes Association of 30000000 a diagnosed with the illness that well more than 7000000 rely on not only important ensure that it remains the main treatment for diabetics to be able to control of it because levels it was 1st produced in 121. 00 and toronto in canada back then the paper was sold for just 1. 00 with the hope of making the treatment available to everyone who needed it but a spike in prices between 2
