Sure. Sure. It is a. Bit of like a. Little its a good. Coder. To the freedom summer look at the recent river just. Not where as a shows it was a border of the paragraph or 4th he would. See. Me every month. Like google did i mention a dog a but do you. Believe in god not only mcgee given that i have. Many. Options here i should just let hold strong jolt in the left wing literally 2nd play to the plane began to rock back and forth like a boat i began to tighten my belt panic a dollar a day began that the children had started crying when the plane began to go dollars look it was clear that would definitely go into a crash which i braced myself for the impact then the sewing caved in the mergence the door was open so we jumped on the wing and again slipping because it was icy we helped each other to get down. Geoffrey thomas from allen ratings dot com gave assistance on what might have gone wrong. Early indications point to possible causes one is that as we can see snow sleet snow everywhere it was very very cold icing conditions and it may well have been that the plane was not correctly d. I still not do ya asked at all and if theres of build up of ice on the wing as soon as the plane takes off youre going to have a situation where you get the lift over the top of the wing the air over the top of the wing is disturbed therefore you lose lift the plane or you reach now 2 to 40 feet and then crash back to earth. And the other thing we but theres a possibility there was an engine problem we know the aircraft reached takeoff speed of about 175 miles an hour and then quickly that speak quickly to within a 2nd or 2 of takeoff back to a 148 and thats when all the data was lost. So asa bill engine problem possible icing problem on the wings. The u. S. Democratic president ial candidate Michael Bloomberg has apologized to his campaign use prison labor to promote his election message female inmates were employed to call up voters although bloomberg himself denies he knew what was happening we only learned about this when the reporter called us but as soon as we discovered which friend a subcontractor had done this we immediately ended our relationship with the company and the people who hired them imagine being so rich you have people who have people who have prisoners to do stuff for you agence being so rich you dont even bother to check what you are spending millions of dollars on. Rita reading we sad indeed when we learn a vendor of a vendor of a vendor use prison labor we did know about it and we never would have allowed it we dont believe in this practice and we immediately stopped working with pro com and the people who hired them so how do you do it pay someone to pay someone to tell them my bloomberg is a big spender he was last to do in the president ial race and he has already outspent all the other democrat candidates on Campaign Advertising i mean the guy has so much money he doesnt seem to have the time to check what he spent a good dog but they his credit Michael Bloomberg did promise america more work just to. Get ahead. For president jobs creator. Problems. Right america more jobs even if you dont particularly want them what makes it much much worse is that many of the prisons in the states private run for profit and there are laws that force people to work so if youre in a jail and you are told to work you have to youll be punished sometimes they pay you as much as 20. 00 a month thats right 20. 00 a month now heres the irony Mike Bloomberg billionaire one of the richest people in america was essentially paying for what is a slave labor to cool people apparently tell them that easy good god wait the bloomberg is he was paying someone to pay someone to tell everyone what a good guy he is trump says he wants to run the nation like hes running is business god help us. Everybody says stuff that comes back to bite them but when billionaires do it its generally an order of magnitude more cream it gets. Worse the further you dig when he launched his campaign his media Bloomberg News sent out a letter thousands of its journalists pledging to uphold its principle of not investigating its own or this is the sort of person mike is Mike Bloomberg started as a middle class kid who had to work his way through college and built a business from a single room to a global entity creating tens of thousands of good paying jobs along the way there. He probably shouldnt but he didnt let me continue he became richer year after year he made really a selling bank is ludicrously priced products all gadgets the same bankers who threw on bridal greed set off the 2008 financial crash depriving tens of millions of people of those of lifes savings and jobs. Michael bloomberg for president. Ok thanks stay without fail but back with more of the weeks top stories after this short break. The world is driven by a dream shaped by. The dares thinks. We dare to ask. You know world a big part of the movie lot and conspiracy its time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the back and shouting past each other its time for Critical Thinking its time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now were watching closely watching the hawks. Thats been a shopping creasing u. K. Weapon sales to saudi arabia over the last 5 years that despite london sunning up to a treaty to prevent exports to rights abuses oxfam which calculated the rise says its deeply concerned about the way the weapons have been used in the conflict in yemen. According to the charity u. K. License sales worth nearly 6 and a half 1000000000 pounds to 8 members of this articulation in the last 5 years thats more than in the 5 years prior to its signing the treaty a treaty that more than 100 countries signed up to it regulates the arms trade in order to prevent human suffering simple stuff the British Government was also keen to stress its importance when it signed up the a. T. T. Is the only legally binding treaty regulating and promoting legitimate responsible trading conventional arms he remains a unique and valuable instrument when the arms trade treaty came into effect and the u. K. With a real champion of that treaty unfortunately sales to countries that we in yemen are party to now or in yemen have actually increased and i think this is the signal that. Youre yemen worlds worst humanitarian crisis right now and the u. K. And far from kind of living up to treaty in and the word is that treaty has has continued to say how countries involved in a conflict where we know international and having no is has been disregarded. The pressure mounting the u. K. Has now had to suspend the sale of weapons the saudi arabia in june the court of appeal said that they were unlawful or that the government is expected to appeal the decision at the Supreme Court saudi arabias intervention in yemen started in 2015 to fight to the rebels who they say are terrorists however its the level of civilian casualties that has become a major cause of concern. Im says theres clear evidence riyadh has committed Human Rights Violations in yemen the evidence is really i have a well meaning and that theres been consistent violations of International Law and and as you say the case was really clear that. That the government needed to you know if it was going to continue to license weapons had to be clear about that there was a pattern of violation in that violation and it was clear that so i find that height that that system will be a pallet and i think its. You know very sad that the government have had to try and chosen to appeal this decision and wish to continue to sell weapons that have been used in a war that is causing so untold poverty and hard destruction fed the people of yemen.
