This is a 4 night of 5 live on doser not a boy and coming up in this hour of the program the government intends to make criminals fear of the law 85000000 pounds has been found and there are questions as to where it was found to. Give the criminal justice system a little bit more bite to find out more about that points towards a general election and also more not in the migrants who will get the week's news from the Turkish region will also hear how Washington is found a new way to make immigrants pay for coming to America and how the miss all that exploded in Russian last week may have been nuclear powered and part of a new generation of cruise missiles and the Boeing 737 Max isn't coming back anytime soon says the new administrator of the Federal Aviation Authority at least not until he is fully satisfied with its safe to. The government has announced an extra $85000000.00 pounds for the Crown Prosecution Service over the next 2 years to. Deal with the rise in violent crime in England and Wales it comes as Boris Johnson launches a review of sentencing of some dangerous and prolific offenders he said dangerous criminals must be taken off the streets and punishment fit the crime if the public was to have confidence in the justice system lawyers as say the new money doesn't make up for 10 years of relentless cuts the news fills speculation that ministers are preparing for a general election with a series of spending commitments and new initiatives on Sunday the prime minister promised to create an extra $10000.00 new prison places and expand stop and search powers but Downing Street says it's not planning an early election earlier our political reporter Tom Barton told me more this is the latest in a series of announcements we've had over the last few days from Boris Johnson's new government this one sees them promising to reduce crime inside the prison in his state with a particular focus on drugs and violent crime they're committing 100000000 pounds to extend the scheme which has already been trialed in some places to introduce airport style security so that X. Ray scanners metal detectors as well as mobile phone signal blockers into prisons now ministers say that this is about showing that they're committed to improving the criminal justice system but also making sure that people on the inside are able to focus on being rehabilitated rather than continuing criminal activities on the inside what's behind this focus as you say on crime well really this is the Tories trying to you know played see what has traditionally been one of their electoral strengths you know Law and Order for decades was a conservative. Rallying cry for the electorate but in. Recent years pretty much says Tony Blair's government tough on crime tough on the causes of crime they have not performed as well on this issue with the electorate and you know recent years in particular we've seen a series of kind of missteps by the government on you know illegal A there with cuts which were very heavily criticized by the legal profession cuts to jails which have been reversed in the last couple of years but which saw very significant reductions in staffing prison overcrowding and I think you know Boris Johnson is trying to use this is a way of putting the government on to the from force on an area which electorally has been successful for them in the past and the reason he's doing that many suspect is because lots and lots of people are anticipating including Boris Johnson and his advisors and autumn election maybe not one that they choose to go for maybe not one called by Boris Johnson maybe one forced on them by a vote of confidence in the House of Commons nonetheless there clearly are many people suspect there clearly laying the groundwork for a contest at some point this autumn but they're not clearly linking this exit $85000000.00 pounds for the Crown Prosecution Service with an election though. They're not making a direct link of course or not but you know the suspicion is there among many people that this is about you know getting on the front foot and that's why lots of people are asking questions about where the money's coming from you know no clear answers on this new funding for jails today or yesterday's announcement on funding for the Crown Prosecution Service no clear answers from the gov. And yet on exactly where that money's going to come from and so you know there are clearly questions about whether this is going to be delivered given that many of these things are issues which trees amaze government promised to sort out but actually didn't necessarily get around to doing so many suspicions from some commentators tonight over you know how realistic all of this is and is this new money is it new funding because some people visit just into the Crown Prosecution Service the police the prison system has been underfunded they've they've suffered cuts rather than you know been a level playing field for what they needed or that's right so the Labor Party absolutely say the this money today is simply plugging a black hole which has been left behind by years of a stereotype as the Labor Party see it and you know there's no doubt that there have been cuts to prison budgets now 100000000 pounds is the government assurance new money money which hasn't previously been announced you know we often hear government announcements and when you actually get down into the detail it turns out that this is something all part of something which was announced a couple weeks ago or a couple of months ago that's just been repackaged while the government Assuras the this is 100000000 pounds of genuinely new money on top of 70000000 pounds which has been spent on the trial of this but you know the devil is often in the details . And then we'll find out over the next coming days whether actually those claims turn out to be true yet we will bottom there are political reporter for the United States is to penalize legal immigrants who rely on public assistance programs such as food stamps medical care and housing vouchers as part of a drive to curb immigration in a statement President Trump said immigrants my. Be financially self-sufficient to protect benefits for American citizens while the executive director of The New York Immigration Coalition Steve Choi said they would fight against the decision this is not a bug this is a feature it's a very intentional effort by the Trump in ministration to continue to target immigrant communities with cruelty and with fear we're going to fight back with all of our allies and our champions we're going to fight back in the halls of Congress we're going to fight back in the courts and we're going to fight back in the streets as well this week to across what I'm pleased to Burroughs in the U.S. Has this decision by the time administration come as a surprise. It's not spin actually a surprise because we've heard dotting many times from the president himself that he prefers he would say he's got nothing against immigration but he wants the best of the best and that usually in his terms means those who can afford through their own means to live in the United States and perhaps indeed the most intelligent of those people wanting to come into this country to bring something into this country which would benefits the nation rather than strain its resources which is the implication behind this rule which would clearly seem to penalize those people coming to America with limited financial resources and especially those no course very mind this applies to people who are already in this country legally but haven't reached that threshold where they become a permanent resident or a green card holder under the new rules which will come into effect in 60 days time will look at the extent to which these people have been using public services perhaps housing benefit saw food stamps or the health service in this country called Medicaid which is the government run health care service for the poorest of of residents and if it is determined that those people in the future likely it's not necessarily what they've been using but it's what they're likely to use in the future if they're likely to use these services and perhaps put a burden on the economy and the providers of these services for citizen Americans well then they're likely to find it more difficult perhaps to go away and to come back again or to elevate their temporary visa status to a permanent residency so he is going to big immigrants pay for coming to America what will the impact of that be. Well there will be a fight and I actually was we just heard there's going to be a likely a legal fight over this are you anticipate will be many many demonstrations that we've had a very swift political reaction to this and also groups representing migrants to the United States political reaction from Camelot Horace who is a senator based here in California of course one of the states most affected by the immigration crisis she tweeted that this latest crackdown on immigration is part of as she sees it President Trump's ongoing campaign to vilify a whole group of people she says it's indefensible she says No family should live in fear of feeding housing or caring for their kids the California Immigration Policy Center which is one of these bodies that represents those migrants says shame on the Trump administration for expanding a rule with racist roots in a shameful ploy they say to rig the immigration system for the wealthy I just can't imagine if you are one of those immigrants that you know President Trump may not prefer those immigrants who are on the lower rung of the NOMIC cycle of life and who are in America to try and make a better life for themselves. You're going to really struggle if you can't apply for the same benefits as equitable people economically equitable people in the United States are depended upon what do you do if your reality. Right well it's and it's not only that and what is being emphasized is that it's not necessarily what's been happening but what is forecast to happen in the future so the implications for those people that you refer to could be in fact that they can't stay in the United States that they are once their current visa expires and many people will renew a visa but they will be unable to do that so they physically won't be allowed legally to be still in the United States and for those who have had aspirations to become legal residents and perhaps citizens in the long run again they could be penalized if it is shown through the statistics I'm probably algorithms that are applied to this that they are likely to use social services more than others in the future have the Democrats and particularly those who would be president the United States who are running as part of the Democratic race the moment any of them responded to this. Yes they've jumped on this a lot I mention what can't come of Horace's how to say and the response of other civil rights groups has been along similar lines that this they're all saying it's unfair that it targets low income income immigrants that the National Immigration Law Center for example said it will sue the Trump administration so there is a specter of more legal action to stop this regulation from taking effect but they don't have to be quick because the legal process is often slow and this is designed to commend them to start taking effect in just 2 months time but it can be challenged in the courts yes they are saying it can be challenged in the courts light like many many of the administration's. New rules and regulations which would follow a similar pattern and it all comes down to again the administration President from in particular saying that immigration is fine America was built on immigrants to a large extent but he wants to bring in he said this several times the best of the best and it's clear from the implication of what this new policy is saying that it's targeted a thorough who wouldn't through some people's eyes come into that category because they are poor they needs welfare they need help just to survive don't if you see in this photograph is this making the rounds on social media photograph of Michelle Obama holding up a plaque saying an immigrant took my job. I haven't seen it but I can imagine what you're talking about yeah and another interesting and interesting just briefly Don some interesting statistics of how long term this could affect the range of people coming into the United States and because it's essentially an income threshold that they're talking about are going to vary disproportionate effect on the nationalities of the original nationalities of people coming to the states blocking according to one organization more than 70 percent of applicants from Mexico and Central America 69 percent from Africa 52 percent from Asia only 36 percent from Europe and Canada Peter thank you presuppose that it's now believed that an explosion in northern Russia last week you may have been related to work on a prototype cruise missile with a nuclear motor Thursday's explosion at the new NOT missile test site released radiation into the atmosphere and killed at least 5 people last year Moscow announce that it had tested a cruise missile powered by a nuclear reactor it calls this missile V 9 M. 73 vesting NATO calls it the S S C X 9 Skyfall it's a weapon say knowledge a considered an abandoned by NATO Gen the height of the Cold War Professor Matthew Bunn from the Harvard Kennedy School of Government is an expert on nuclear policy and joins us now Professor thank you for his reading or some of your charm has anybody managed to make a nuclear powered missile engine work. But so far but you know it's States in the Soviet Union pursued booth nuclear powered aircraft and nuclear powered missiles during the course of the Cold War and it's not an insane idea that you might be able to make it work with new materials and technologies that are available now one of the labs that was involved in this work was one of Russia's leading nuclear weapons laboratories. Why has it proved difficult to to engineer a mode propelled by a nuclear engine was that been difficult given the nuclear means energy doesn't it you through the now been obvious few. Well it's hard to make nuclear engine small and sitting into a airplane or worse yet a small cruise missile. One of the things in my view that Edward Teller was correct about in his career that is a that's the system is the father of the U.S. I didn't. See a terrorist a nuclear powered aircraft he said if there's one thing
