Hello good morning its friday the 26th of june youre watching r. T. International. In moscow now the European Union has proven itself irrelevant during the pandemic according to a new opinion poll to apologize the findings come after certain individual Member States to request help from outside the block as the coronavirus took hold. Reports. A crisis a time when your colors are really showed when you are the pilot together or fall apart or just prove yourself to be neither here nor perhaps more worrying than the large numbers who say the you performed burghley of even larger numbers has been irrelevant a new poll reveals a damning portrayed of how easy it is and think about the blog in the wake of the create a virus pandemic if this were a popularity rating you would be seriously worried about reelection so what led to this loss of confidence what we all know to ease proud of its open borders its one of its selling points moving from london to paris is as busy as swapping a bowler hat for a beret but Free Movement is also ironically one of the things that failed brussels i think is going to administer and we all share the conviction that travel restrictions on border closures would not be appropriate in the particular precautions at this point. But as the number of infections continued its upward trend criticism within grew to the fact that a party that was no far the game plan other than just leaving the door open. We were told that it was obviously very important that we should be under this umbrella of a European Union countries to Work Together the European Union has said nothing the only thing they have said is that there is absolutely no need to set up restrictions on travel at the villages and then the peak pass when countries pondered how to restart the ailing economies reopening and letting tourists in was seen as a logical step but even that process was riddled with indecision and disagreements. It is crucial for us to coordinate our choices on the european scene particularly with regard to the shang given areas however at the moment this is not happening it seems but i was also a bit of a free for all on how individual countries behaved with. And that that open borders its me knocked out and threw away the key no restaurants no sport nothing britain dollywood before following suit but you could back the size on the street are not where mosque and suite and people continue to walk around cinnamon buns and dots around the maypole as for testing the u. K. And france have similar populations but 4 times more brits than french have been tested and looked like there was no strategy in play no one to the ears means of Health Official resigned in frustration and dismay ive been extremely disappointed by the European Response to covert 19 for what pertains to the complete absence of coordination of Health Care Policies among Member States their current opposition to cohesive Financial Support initiatives to provide a safe one sided border closures and the marginal scale of synergistic scientific initiatives and on the streets but also wasnt a feeling that it was one for all and all for what to come as no one european age is being created in aid that came from within the e. U. Community. I dont know blue germany or france and were always there for them when its the opposite not so much like another we should be thankful to russia but also to china and cuba as well as to other countries outside the European Union which brussels did show some remorse it is also true that too many were not there on time when italy needed a helping hand at the very beginning. And yes for that it is right that europe as a whole offers a heartfelt apology that still didnt stop the chaos from continuing because italy overwhelmed by 34000 that got a relatively paltry 2000000000 euro from the Emergency Relief Fund while hungary with just a 6th of the population of italy and far fewer covert that got more than 5 and a half 1000000000 years to distinguish between different that people demand more asian and loss a great deal and with their recent. Guarantees in the so they will who should have most of the day to meaning the german should be germans and want to be in and theres been very little difference to the have been stealing from each other on. Medicare as you place from another i mean the European Union you see is based on the idea that you can build from above and then your blog we a utopian citizenship that simply does not exist in the manga people are sort of on today as of right no one was ready for this but the European Union sin was not in the fact that it struggled with this unprecedented crisis but that it failed to live up to it from a. Detail of an eye while european people may feel that maybe you has let them down in the crisis youre a pain conservationists are worried the pandemic could have huge consequences on the regions environmental health. Lowing that more than 2000000000 disposable mosques have been ordered soon there will be more mosques than joe of the waters of the mediterranean. A french Nonprofit Organization has raised the alarm after finding dozens of gloves masks and other protective equipment floating in the sea during cleanup operations in recent months divers took photographs of the litter hoping that this will highlight the risks facing the natural were. Old experts do say to you if we dont Pay Attention to the problem it may lead to irreversible consequences in the future. If today we find less than 5 percent of people you waste ending up going to see tomorrow also with millions of disposable quite like 1000 production items that transport that 5 percent could become egypt or santa people must realize that everything they drop on the ground and up in the sea you to want to drainage systems at their core simple gesture like not throwing waste on the ground is a gesture for. Your government has ordered massive amounts of disposable people again without worrying about the disastrous consequences for nature we must protect ourselves from the current virus in a responsible manner if we do not do that were just shifting the problem will be killing ourselves more slowly but the result will be the same. Stream party in a residential area of london has ended in chaos after police moved in to break it up such parties have been gaining popularity of late despite being illegal under lockdown rules 22. 00 Police Officers were injured as the event turned violent shadi Edwards Dashti has this report. What began as a large scale street party quite peaceful descended later on in these clashes on this very street here in angel town in brixton now police were called around the 1 am 2 am mark to try and discuss the crowds from the scene but weve seen some quite alarming footage emerging on social media including police being hit with perhaps but also Police Responding in quite an aggressive manner as well we do know that over 20 peace officers have been injured as a result 2 of which have been hospitalized but also we know that 4 people remain in custody for public order offenses now what ive been hearing on the very scene from local residents is quite a different picture to those alarming scenes in fact they argue that it was a very peaceful street party enjoying the hottest day of the year yesterday but it was people that came from other areas of london on to this very street that descended into the clashes with the police and they argue with those people that have tarnished the name of this community now adding to that and just to try and give you a bit of global contextualization and all of this we all have course in the middle of a black lives Matter Movement thats a rapid worldwide bricks and of course being home majority to be any people and therefore the people here in the community so the police really need to be acting better image this pandemic of racism worldwide but also an incident like last night has merely exacerbated tensions between the police and the community it also has to do with the black. Hole we feel as well you know this really really feel as if we are being targeted so when we feel as if weve been targeted for me i will return to you you know im quite peaceful other people the real retaliates the police its good its nice that you do with in the woods distribute your stuff from around to get used to sitting there like. A good book when you take you know your bones and you will see most. She makes us feel like animals dont like stuff like that you know at the end of the day how i see is just for many of the parts is a 1000001 thing school going on and ive never ever seen a bunch of use of this is like just to be dispersing people out like that they would see them if you see an artist in my city and we could have done the same thing to us now the Prime Ministers spokesperson has said that the scenes last night were appalling and that anybody that used violence against police will face the full force of the law weve also heard from the home secretary pretty patel shes labeled the incident as vile weve heard from the mayor of london sidique khan as well and he said that last nights events were completely unacceptable plus the metropolitan police a certain event of a scale of that of last night was unlawful but of course it does raise the point that pubs and bars and restaurants are of course a closed Community Centers in areas like this also remain closed so people are having to go to public spaces like streets and parks to congregate in a social fashion but it brings the point that they are not surveyed theyre not patrolled by streets and parks and not even lit so many would argue theyre not enough safe spaces to actually do so which arguably would bring placing into question all the lack of especially when we look back at how the government has handled this coronavirus pandemic in all its process not just clinically and medically but socially as well well the former head of the National CounterterrorismSecurity OfficeChris Phillips believes that the problems lie in the way we approach police. Its so very long. Very free of the 1st time to see you have been emasculated government by the media in such a way that theyre really wants you to take strong actions because they know that they will be criticised for so in my opinion theyre actually just so they may. Preserve their own safety but of course to allow the more. Yes to take control of the streets is always going to be wrong and needs to go. We need to have a rethink in the u. K. As to how do you and i think 6 there is no. Fear of something more which allows these people i think that they can do this without any repercussions the mob is there because it feels that its got its got the ability to do this now and the police are going to react in a strong buy that they will do it and until we get hard at all we wont be able to do with the problem. Now the black lives Matter Movement is impacting on many sectors and one of the latest is the p. C. Industry several companies have faced a backlash for marketing skin whitening products Corporate Giant unilever has now announced for example it is going to rename its product line which is currently called fair and lovely. We recognize that the use of the words fear weight and lloyd suggest a singular idea of beauty that we dont think is right and we want to address this the move comes after 2 petitions demanding a ban of the products attracted thousands of signatures the petition states these whitening products were developed from internalized racism and promote anti black you know leave it was not the only company in the crosshairs of activists the us giant for example johnson and johnson is also forced to take quick action its going to pull from the shelves its entire range of lightning products which are distributed in asia and the middle east. You know i mean they take. The easy life its you its your eyes its without the boys in the field conversations over the past few weeks highlighted that some product names or claims on air neutrogena and clean and clear dark spot reduce of products represent fairness or white as better than your own unique skin tone this was never our intention healthy skin is Beautiful Skin however a lot of consumers who use the trains are outraged at what is happening we put up for debate. Theyre removing these products that are not used to correct issues of you know skin issues but they are used to create the fairest of possible skin and such products should not exist they should not be marketed they are result of White Supremacy in colonialism i think if your were to remove whitening creams you would have to also remove tanning solutions to mean lotions tanning oils so i think that we should make it completely legal still because its everyones choice to have you know whatever they want to do with their own bodies the difference between bleaching and tanning is this bleaching your skin comes from an ideology White Supremacy and selfhatred is actually in my opinion a form of self mutilation where if you harm it really want to remove the melanin and the color in your skin because you want to appear as wide as possible i think its up to people to decide what they want to do and for example if you say that women cannot no longer get breast implants because its massaging a stick because men look at their breasts more thats like saying the same thing i mean every every day something is going to be coded as racist and i dont think thats right and i think that people are moving way too fast with this notion and i dont think that should be the case as right now there is never a speed thats too fast to eradicate racism we have been for hundreds of years seeing the remnant of that i think in the warm up selfhatred in the city plea for china its rooted in attempting to create parity with europeans who came in sign a back in the thirtys i think that chinas case about why you know what incomes and whatever its based on not by supremacy but its based on and in the in the old days when workers used to be farmers they would take a lot and then it would be perceived as more poor if you go out in the sun so its not about why supremacy is about peoples own thoughts and minds and cultures if a person who works in the sun is seen as a worker and a lower income person then thats. Thats actually been used for hundreds of years in asia to discriminate against black people and people who are darker a star asiatics said this is a person saying i dont want to identify with my ethnicity either way its peoples rights to their own body whatever they want to do i dont like how payola look i put 10 cream on every day and i think its great i dont think its White Supremacy i dont think that im trying to be black and i dont think im trying to be darker its just i think that thats what i like it suits my body well and i like that that is simple white they are i think created in the minds of people around the world that if you are white margret or that has been brainwashed and then all and unfortunately it was her face or not even inspired an. Insane talent that Michael Jackson possess in spite of his wealth of math i think what we should do is that we should educate people on the notion that that white isnt just the most beautiful you know your of stuff in the shelves to make that happen and you could educate people you commit make a movement saying that i think that if you remove these when creams off the shelves people go to dangerous notions dangerous measures to make them see their skin away provide education for children for the future your future generation the current generations to say that hey whiter isnt beautiful and you were perfect just what you are and then its up to them to decide what they want to do with their lives.
