storm after Newsnight investigated abuse on Twitter last night, there | :00:14. | :00:19. | |
has been an arrest of a 25-year-old man from South Shields. We will | :00:19. | :00:24. | |
have the latest. Having hidden from the press for so long, we will hear | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
from Twitter's head of trust and safety from California. We will | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
speak to Stella Cerasy an MP subject to the most vile abuse | :00:32. | :00:39. | |
herself and a Twitter enthusiast, Toby Young, who says in most cases | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
the trolls should be ignored. The biggest breach of classified | :00:44. | :00:51. | |
information in America in history, Bradley Manning handed out secret | :00:51. | :00:56. | |
information of over 700 classified files. He was found not guilty of | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
aiding the enemy, but as he faces the rest of his life in prison, is | :01:01. | :01:06. | |
he a hero or martyr. We will hear from whistleblowerer Adniel | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
Ellsberg. Does this look deslate to you, | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
there is a fracas about fracking after an MP from the Deep South | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
offered his view about the north- east. There are large uninhabited | :01:19. | :01:25. | |
and desolate areas in the north- east where there is plenty of move | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
for fracking. The Brazilian musician and former Culture | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
Minister, Gilberto Gil, on whether his country's great dream of | :01:33. | :01:43. | |

progress and prosperity has begun to come apart. Good evening, | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
following Newsnight's investigation last night of rape threats and | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
other abuse on Twitter, there has been an arrest of a 25-year-old man | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
from South Shields. We tracked down an alleged Twitter troll to an | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
address in the area. The rape threats against Caroline Criado- | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
Perez are just part of the many obscene abusive and sometimes vile | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
lent tweets directed at some women in public life by abusers. We will | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
hear from another one of their targets, the Labour MP, Stella | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
Cerasy in a moment. After avoiding interviews for the past few days we | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
will also hear from a Twitter executive from California. First, | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
Paul Mason on this evening's developments. What has been | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
happening? Over the weekend it took me and another journalist about 12 | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
hours over two days to assemble the evidence that linked one of the | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
Twitter accounts that had threatened to rape the two women | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
involved and an internet connection in South Shields in the north-east. | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
So it took quite a long time to do that, the evidence was not straight | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
forward, but we thought compelling. I have spent the afternoon | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
conveying that evidence and explaining it to Northumbria Police, | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
and tonight, as a result of Newsnight's investigation a 25- | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
year-old man in South Shields, as you say, has been arrested on | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
suspicion of harassment as part of the Met's investigation into the | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
attacks on the two women. That case is subdued now and nothing more can | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
be said about it. Secondly that hasn't stopped abuse, another MP | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
has received a direct rape and murder threat, from the same person | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
who was playing cat and mouse, it looks like, last night with the | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
police, saying come on close me down. It shows how hard it is both | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
for Twitter and for the police to even trace somebody like that. | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
Given how hard it was for untrained police people to get their heads | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
around what it is that links one account with another. Now in the | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
course of doing this, it is fairly clear the police are stretched, the | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
detectives who are having to pick up these cases in different parts | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
of Britain are not necessarily the ones who have been trained to do | :03:57. | :04:02. | |
the usual stuff, the stuff aimed at child abusers and porn. It is not | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
necessarily those people who have to pick this up. It can be quite | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
hard for the resources to be assembled. I think that's why the | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
police keep emphasising, they would like Twitter to sort it out. | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
spent the day almost on the trail of a technological solution, as we | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
will see it is not that easy but there are bossablities, in the | :04:20. | :04:27. | |
process we had to talk to some of the called "trolls" who do this. We | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
have expunged all offensive and swearing. We have had to use some | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
of the bad language because that is the language these people speak in. | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
Since high-profile British women got hit with rape threats on | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
Twitter, many of us have seen our timelines filled with shocking | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
abuse and imagery, prompting a very practical question. Just what do | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
you do if your internet timeline on social media gets suddenly swamped | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
with people threatening rape or using extreme imagery of sexual | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
violence, and who are they? I have been talking to the trolls, to | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
people who have studied them and to those trying to come up with a | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
technical solution. Quinn Norton is a US journalist who has studied the | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
trolls and been harassed by them. She thinks demands by Twitter to | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
suspend the accounts won't be enough. It is easy with a basic | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
understanding of programming to autogenerate tonnes of accounts, | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
endlessly, and there isn't really a good way of stopping them. There is | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
so many tools of getting around all the ways to stop. That the best | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
thing to do is let them have their account and to block that account | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
so that you don't see it. Because if you remove that account they are | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
motivated to come back 10,000 fold. When I showed her some of the | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
abusers on my timeline, though we work on different continents, she | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
recognised two immediately as part of a hardcore that had harassed her, | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
prompting the question why not ban them? The social problem is men are | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
raised to hate women. And technology is not going to fix that, | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
what is what will fix that is a societal conversation about why | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
that is and why it shouldn't be. the I was contacted by one of the | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
people involved in directing hardcore rape jokes at women. I had | :06:14. | :06:24. | |
:06:24. | :06:52. | ||
But there are technical solution, blogger Rebecca Watson had a bad | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
experience at a conference two years ago. 4.00 am I said I had | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
enough guys and I'm going to bed. I walked to the elevator and a man | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
got on with me and said don't take this the wrong way but I find you | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
very interesting and I would like to talk more, would you like to | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
come to my hotel room for coffee. Just a word to the wise here, guys, | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
don't do that. For saying this she was deluged with abuse on Twitter, | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
in response her supporters set up a programme that monitors and blocks | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
a shared list of abusers, and the man who wrote it talked me through | :07:28. | :07:34. | |
the installation. I will just block the super slimey, the Washington | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
Post. The block works by blocking a list of offenders that is | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
constantly updated by a community, it uses Twitter's own technology, | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
that prompts another question. Why don't Twitter implement what you | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
have done as part of Twitter? question. They certainly could do | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
easily, they have shared lists for following people, they could easily | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
have the ability that people who can create shared lists for | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
blocking people that would be possible. Why don't they?They are | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
so changing their platform, as an IT person I understand why, in | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
terms of keeping stability and the cost of doing that. They have to be | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
very careful they maintain the service. Those who have been around | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
a long time remember when the whole internet was predominantly male, | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
and there are some social media sites now openly struggling to be | :08:21. | :08:28. | |
representative. If you look at other on-line communities, Redet | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
that is predominant low young white males, there is no marginalised | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
groups left there. There is a considerable lack of women and | :08:35. | :08:43. | |
people of colour. Why?These voices don't get heard. Why?I guess and I | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
will get completely flaipltd now, there is racist abuse there, | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
homophobia, mysogynistic abuse there. Why as a woman would you | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
want to go there to get demeaned and put down for being a woman. | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
Twitter, slow to act in the crisis, there is an existential question, | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
it is nothing to do with the blocking mechanism, it is simply | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
are they prepared to see their part of cyberspace become essentially | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
white and male? For a company set to take a billion dollars next year, | :09:13. | :09:20. | |
driven by advertising, that is quite a question. | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
Del Harvey is head of Twitter's trust and safety, I spoke to her | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
from California before we came on air. The British politician, Stella | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
Cerasy, has been repeatedly told on Twitter that she will be raped, why | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
have you done so very little about it? To back up and give you a | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
little bit of context about who I am and why I'm the person here | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
talking to you, along with what's actually so far in this, I'm Del | :09:45. | :09:52. | |
Harvey, I head up the Trust and Safety Department at Twitter, the | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
department to handle users' safety and the like. I have been at | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
Twitter for five years. The CV is very interesting can we move on, | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
why have you done so very little about the threats of rape to a | :10:05. | :10:11. | |
British Labour politician? I think that there is perhaps a Misper | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
exception of how we responded. When we were made aware of the issue | :10:16. | :10:24. | |
over the weekend we had reached out privately to the parties involved, | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
we have been talking with them and with law enforcement. We have been | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
engaged in active dialogue since this weekend and we have been | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
continuing that dialogue. feminist campaigner, Caroline | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
Criado-Perez told me last night that when she complained about rape | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
threats she was blocked by one of your managers. Why would you do | :10:43. | :10:49. | |
that? I can't speak to the details of why he would do that, or what | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
that would mean for him or what that situation was but I can say | :10:54. | :11:00. | |
that's...Is It acceptable in Twitter when someone complains | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
about rape threats for a Twitter executive to block them, is that | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
acceptable to you? I would much rather they tell the person how to | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
report the threat. You going to discipline this guy? He's not in my | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
department, I know we are certainly talking about what happened and why | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
we, quite frankly, didn't provide him with the guidance on what he | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
should do in a situation like that. The thing is, I'm talking to you | :11:23. | :11:29. | |
about rape threats to women and you're talking corporate jiberish? | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
I'm certainly not trying to. The fact of the matter is we do work | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
with law enforcement on issues like these, these sorts of threats are | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
against the rules. We suspend accounts when they are reported to | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
us, we are working to make it easier to report those accounts. We | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
think this is really important. I have spent the majority of my | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
career working on issues tied to this. Before Twitter I worked with | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
domestic violence victims and rape victims, along with law enforcement | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
on the on-line abuse cases, this is something that is so important to | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
us and we care about getting right. If it is so important why are you | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
so slow, why do the women involved say the response is inadequate, why | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
does shadow Home Secretary here say it is inadequate, why is it so | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
inadequate? Part of the challenge is we have a really wide variety I | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
have a bues cases on Twitter. From everything from somebody following | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
someone who they want to see their tweet to someone trying to raise | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
attention to human rights issues, and these sort of changes around | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
how we can make it easier for people to report abuse, we also | :12:35. | :12:40. | |
have to make sure we are building in protections to make sure people | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
aren't being silenced at the same time. How many people do you employ | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
to sort out these very serious threats of sexual violence towards | :12:47. | :12:53. | |
women? There is actually dozens of people in the Trust and Safety Team, | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
which is worth rembering that Twitter is a case with the company | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
got outleapt a bit by the brand and the use of it. The use of Twitter, | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
the countries it is used in, the way it took off like a rocket ship | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
and we are trying to make sure we have everything right that we need | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
to make sure people feel safe on that rocket ship, so to speak. | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
Caroline Criado-Perez said that she hopes what happened to her and to | :13:17. | :13:22. | |
other women here will be a wake-up call to you, I'm just trying to | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
figure out where the wake up is happening. How are you waking up? | :13:25. | :13:29. | |
We have a number of things that we had in development, for example we | :13:29. | :13:35. | |
had launched about three weeks ago the ability to report a tweet from | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
the actual tweet itself on IOS and mobile. This was really underscored | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
to us the need to really push to get that out to all parts of the | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
platform. Because it is really clear that people aren't aware that | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
we do have rules. It is not OK to harass people, it is not OK to | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
threaten them with violence. said you have got dozenss of people | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
working on this, there are 400 million tweets every day, surely it | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
can't be enough? That is part of the reason that users have to | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
report to us as well. That is actually an issue that happens on | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
any platform at scale. Users have to say this is what happened this | :14:12. | :14:22. | |
is not OK. It would be great to prevent abuse before it starts. We | :14:22. | :14:27. | |
have automatic systems that look for spam and take action. But there | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
is always the challenge of context that you can't always get in 140 | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
characters, which is why we need users to report. A number of | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
British MPs have a lot of questions they would like to put to Twitter, | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
will you put up perhaps yourself or someone senior from Twitter to come | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
to the United Kingdom and discuss this formally with British Members | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
of Parliament? I haven't heard personally about the request, but | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
we're absolutely open for discussion. This is an area that | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
we're already working with law enforcement, we welcome feedback in | :14:57. | :15:02. | |
terms of areas where they have heard complaints or criticisms. It | :15:02. | :15:08. | |
is really genuinely important to me that we get this right. I can't | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
really underscore that enough. I don't want people to think that we | :15:11. | :15:16. | |
don't take it seriously. Just a final thought, one Conservative | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
woman MP, Claire Perry said she thought about quitting Twitter over | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
this, a number of women have suggested that is a route they | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
considered too. Do you worry that the whole future of Twitter here is | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
in the balance in the sense that you might become just a place where | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
angry men sound off about women and women just don't want to know | :15:37. | :15:45. | |
Twitter? Honestly the biggest thing I worry about is users think we | :15:45. | :15:49. | |
don't care no matter what the abuse they are experiencing or the issue | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
they have. Whether it is this or 100 other things, I want people to | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
understand that we welcome their feedback and guidance on what they | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
are feeling and how we can make it better for them. | :15:59. | :16:04. | |
Thank you very much for joining us, thank you. | :16:04. | :16:09. | |
Stella Cerasy is here, a Labour MP who has been a target of some of | :16:09. | :16:15. | |
the vile threats. And Toby Young, a Twitter enthusiast who has argued | :16:15. | :16:21. | |
blocking and ignoring the abusers is the way forward. What did you | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
make of what you heard there about Twitter saying they are trying to | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
do their best? It is frustrating for those affected that we are | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
hearing different stories from the police and Twitter. It is not the | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
platform itself making people persistently doing this, I'm still | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
receiving rape and death threats today, it is people who are idiots | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
and people who may well be escalating in their violence and | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
aggression towards women. I need to see Twitter working with the law | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
enforcement agencies when you have a serious threat of violence and | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
aggression towards somebody, the way I have experienced, and | :16:55. | :17:01. | |
Caroline and now several members in parliament are experiencing. | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
you encouraged by what you heard from Del Harvey? I was encouraged | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
last night hearing from her but that was four days after, and we | :17:11. | :17:17. | |
were blocked by staff. She has admitted offline she felt it wasn't | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
got right, and my concern is getting it right in the UK, this is | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
about violence against women and this new platform against with this | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
old crime. What about Twitter and the way they are trying to respond | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
to it, it is very difficult for them, she made that quite clear? | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
Twitter's defence at least they have a Trust and Safety Division, | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
manned by human beings. The way Facebook deals with abuse is | :17:42. | :17:49. | |
entirely computerised, if a user is flagged up enough as abusive, there | :17:49. | :17:56. | |
is a mathematical sum that bans them. People can abuse the process | :17:56. | :18:03. | |
by flagging up people who they politically disagree with and get | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
them off. If they are getting somewhere it is very, very slow? | :18:06. | :18:11. | |
That is partly because they are so overwhelmed by reports of abuse. | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
Twitter is used by tens of hundreds of millions people around the world, | :18:15. | :18:19. | |
there are lots and lots of trolls out there. There must be reports of | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
I have a bows that Twitter is being deluged with. Let's talk about the | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
way you both deal with this, you deal with it, you have complained, | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
but you also retweet some of the tweets, you are followed by a lot | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
of people, 32,000 people, some of these rather sad cases are not | :18:33. | :18:36. | |
followed by anybody, however offensive it is you are giving them | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
a megaphone aren't you? I use a range of ways to deal with people | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
who behave in offensive and abusive ways on Twitter, sometimes I will | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
send them pictures of kittens because that is the level of debate | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
they deserve. As Toby knows when he has crossed a line I will retweet | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
issues and say I will challenge and call you out and say is this | :18:56. | :19:00. | |
acceptable behaviour. This is illegal, if someone walked up in | :19:00. | :19:04. | |
the street and someone said they would rape me, as people have on | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
Twitter over the last few days, I would dial 999. We mustn't think | :19:08. | :19:13. | |
because it happens on-line it is less serious. 50% of stalking cases | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
involve both own and off line harassment. These people are not | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
letting go, they need to understand neither are we in treating it | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
seriously. You are saying in most cases you can ignore it? I don't | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
have a problem at all with Stella reporting people who threaten her | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
with violence to the police, and I'm not surprised she's cross that | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
Twitter are not doing more to co- operate with the British police to | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
pursue those people. That is totally understandable. What I'm | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
nervous about is something Stella said to me earlier which is she had | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
a conversation with a woman you just interviewed in which she | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
persuaded her to include the word "harassment" in Twitter's abuse | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
policy, therefore hence forth anyone guilty of harassment will be | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
banned from Twitter. That is a vague and elastic term and open to | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
abuse. The worrying thing about Twitter responding to a complaint | :20:02. | :20:08. | |
by a British politician, in a way which is likely to lead to more | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
sensorous behaviour on Twitter, what do they do if a Chinese | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
politician makes a complaint and wants a change of policy. Saying it | :20:16. | :20:23. | |
is a bit of a wild west and even blocking it doesn't make it go | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
away? It was about particular types of harassment, you can't have it | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
both ways, you can't say they have a manned system to look at the | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
cases so they have a clarity about what harassment is, and then say | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
they shouldn't deal with harassment. I talk about things under the | :20:38. | :20:41. | |
protection of harassment act illegal in this country, they have | :20:41. | :20:46. | |
to have a process in dealing with people get a warning, that is fair, | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
isn't it Toby? Twitter should definitely be held to account for | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
not enforcing its own abuse policy. I read the policy on the way here, | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
it includes not allowing local users to break local laws, you are | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
perfectly right to say they should co-operate with the police if you | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
want people to be prosecuted for breaking harassment laws, what I | :21:03. | :21:09. | |
don't want Twitter to do to go beyond enforcing its existing | :21:09. | :21:17. | |
policies and introduce more censorous policies which would lead | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
to a cleaned up place which isn't what we know and love. Do you agree | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
it is not a technical problem but the way some men behave and our | :21:26. | :21:32. | |
society, and you won't fix that by going to Twitter? We have to call | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
it out and having a process that says if you continue to behave in | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
this way you will face consequences. We need police at a local and | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
national level understand the risks coming from on-line behaviour and | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
how it manifests offline. This is about taking violence against women | :21:48. | :21:53. | |
seriously, Toby I don't think you understand here, nobody is talking | :21:53. | :21:57. | |
stopping you making comments about MPs tits, I would hope you would | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
stop on your own. We are talking about the right to contact people | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
who say offensive and abusive things and there is no recourse for | :22:05. | :22:11. | |
this, Twitter doesn't have a clear line about this and they need to | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
get one. You are saying Twitter needs to jump on anybody being | :22:14. | :22:19. | |
offensive and abusive about women, but ignore people being offensive | :22:19. | :22:25. | |
and abusive towards men. When did I say that. You want to enlist | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
Twitter in your campaign to re- educate men and make them less | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
sexist. Actually I said I would really hope you would get to the | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
21st century and stop tweeting about women's tits in parliament, | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
that is what I said, I also said it is good that Twitter has a proposal | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
where people will look at reports of abuse. What I asked Twitter to | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
do on Monday night was give data and understanding about reports | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
they get so we understand the level of difficulties they are dealing | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
with. The problem you are not facing up to if you do persuade | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
Twitter, if you do enlist Twitter in this political cause of yours, | :22:56. | :23:01. | |
it will be harder for Twitter to resist when they are called up and | :23:01. | :23:05. | |
brow beaten by Chinese politicians or Saudi politicians who try to | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
enlist them in their political cause. You said it is about local | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
laws, harassment is illegal, we have strengthened the laws about | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
stalking. You are rather inconsistent, you want to defend it | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
as a no man's land what everybody says goes or it is not accountable, | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
which is it. If you include the word "harass" in the abuse policy, | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
which you said you persuaded them to do, after a two-hour | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
conversation, that they will go beyond simply asking local users | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
toe abide. There is a legal definition, you know that don't you. | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
It is already in Twitter the's abuse policy to stop people abusing | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
local laws, why do they need to add the word "harass", it sounds like | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
you want them to go beyond it and enlist it in a political campaign. | :23:51. | :23:55. | |
It could lead in not in all cases to be banned but accounts suspended. | :23:55. | :23:59. | |
I'm concerned about it takes me as a British MP to have this change. | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
We haven't got more than 140 characters left. Did you, by any | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
chance tweet about women's tits in parliament? It wasn't my proudest | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
moment, I asked who a particular MP, who one couldn't see the head of | :24:14. | :24:18. | |
but sitting behind Ed Miliband wearing a low-cut dress, I | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
committed the sin of noticing it, that constitutes harassment in some | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
people's views. You can Israel read more of Paul | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
Mason's thoughts and whether there is a tech solution to trolling and | :24:30. | :24:37. | |
what steps he has himself taken on his blog. Still to come: There are | :24:37. | :24:44. | |
large and Ince habited and desolate areas in -- and uninhabited and | :24:44. | :24:47. | |
desolate areas in parts of the north-east where there is plenty of | :24:47. | :24:53. | |
room for fracking. Whoops! Now the case against Bradley Manning was | :24:53. | :24:59. | |
simple, he made public through WikiLeaks the biggest trove of | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
classified information ever, in defiance of his military oath and | :25:03. | :25:08. | |
the law. He as, as the prosecution said, a traiter. The case for him | :25:08. | :25:13. | |
is the files did not put US security at risk but did embarrass | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
the Government. He was a young, niave, good-intentioned sold yes, a | :25:18. | :25:23. | |
whistleblower not a traitor. We will examine both sides of the | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
argument. What is not in doubt is a court has found him guilty of most | :25:27. | :25:31. | |
of the charges against him though not the most serious. He can expect | :25:31. | :25:39. | |
to spend the rest of his life behind bars. This footage was never | :25:39. | :25:45. | |
meant to be seen by you or me, it is from Baghdad 2007 when a US air | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
crew killed a dozen people, including two journalists. Come on | :25:48. | :25:54. | |
fire. It came to light in the biggest leak of classified | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
information in US history, including almost half a million | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
pages of war reports from Iraq and Afghanistan.-And-a-quarter of a | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
million state department cables. -- and 250,000 state department cables. | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
We learned in 2009 America's ambassador in Kabul described the | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
Afghan President as a "paranoid and weak individual", that the US | :26:16. | :26:20. | |
planned to spy on UK secretary- general, Ban Ki-Moon, and that logs | :26:21. | :26:25. | |
from the Iraq War suggested 15,000 more civilian deaths than the US | :26:25. | :26:31. | |
Government had acknowledged. Prosecutors and many of his | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
countrymen called the young soldier, Bradley Manning, a traitor. His | :26:34. | :26:40. | |
supporters said he was a niave but well-intentioned wibble. He himself | :26:40. | :26:46. | |
admitted ten -- whistleblower, he himself admitted to ten of the | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
charges against him, and said he wanted to start a true debate | :26:50. | :26:54. | |
against war and foreign policy. Today at a military base 25-year- | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
old Manning gave no reaction as the verdicts were read out by the | :26:58. | :27:01. | |
military judge. Manning was convicted of 20 out of 22 charges, | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
including six under the Espionage Act. Crucially he was acquitted of | :27:06. | :27:12. | |
the most serious charge of aiding the enemy, which he always denied. | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
Prosecutors said he helped American enemies because files he leaked | :27:16. | :27:24. | |
were allegedly found on discs at Osama Bin Laden's compound. | :27:24. | :27:31. | |
fact that he might be used to embolden future whistleblowers, I | :27:31. | :27:37. | |
don't think that, he faces a century-and-a-half in prison. | :27:37. | :27:41. | |
Future wibbles there will be. The Government -- whistleblowers there | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
will be. The Government is concerned about it and they | :27:45. | :27:49. | |
levelled the aiding the enemy charge against Bradley Manning to | :27:49. | :27:57. | |
set a precedent. I wonder what he's thinking now, Edward Snowden, the | :27:57. | :28:01. | |
US spy who leaked his Government's clandestine surveillance of | :28:01. | :28:08. | |
civilians and is now in his sixth week here in a transit hotel in | :28:08. | :28:12. | |
Moscow seeking asylum somewhere in the world. He's being helped by | :28:12. | :28:16. | |
Julian Assange, himself holed up in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, | :28:16. | :28:22. | |
and who put Bradley Manning's treasure trove on-line. Tonight on | :28:22. | :28:26. | |
Twitter WikiLeaks called the convictions dangerous national | :28:26. | :28:29. | |
security extremism from the Obama administration. Some think the | :28:29. | :28:36. | |
White House has more than the whistleblowers in its sights they | :28:36. | :28:39. | |
recently accused a Fox News reporter of being a co-conspirator | :28:39. | :28:42. | |
after he reported classified information from a state department | :28:42. | :28:48. | |
source. The first amendment of our constitution says freedom of speech | :28:48. | :28:54. | |
and the press. The courts have determined that speech covers | :28:54. | :28:57. | |
whistleblowers, and the press it speaks for itself. What we are | :28:58. | :29:02. | |
seeing in some of these prosecutions and investigations is | :29:02. | :29:09. | |
a war against the first amendment. A chilling effect on the right of | :29:09. | :29:15. | |
Americans to inform their Government, their fellow citizens, | :29:15. | :29:19. | |
appropriate officials, of official misconduct. Senators will soon | :29:19. | :29:23. | |
debate new laws protecting journalists, but not people like | :29:23. | :29:26. | |
Bradley Manning, who the Government considers a traitor. He left court | :29:26. | :29:29. | |
knowing he might have started a debate about Freedom of Information, | :29:29. | :29:33. | |
but with a hefty prison sentence expected tomorrow, it may not be a | :29:33. | :29:40. | |
debate he can be part of. Adniel Ellsberg is a whistleblower | :29:40. | :29:45. | |
who famously leaked the Pentagon papers in 1971, which revealed | :29:45. | :29:50. | |
details of the American actions during the Vietnam War. With us in | :29:50. | :29:55. | |
Washington DC is David Rivkin, a former White House attorney serving | :29:55. | :30:03. | |
under Reagan and President Bush. Daniel Ellsberg do you think this | :30:03. | :30:09. | |
is a just verdict against Bradley Manning? I think it is | :30:09. | :30:13. | |
unconstitutional when applied to whistleblowering and unauthorised | :30:13. | :30:17. | |
disclosures to the public. I was the first person who faced the | :30:18. | :30:22. | |
charge and the leading attorney of the day said that the law was | :30:22. | :30:26. | |
clearly unconstitutional in that unprecedented use. I would say that | :30:26. | :30:31. | |
the law of the constitution hasn't changed, no legislation has changed. | :30:31. | :30:36. | |
The legal climate has changed so it is less likely that the view would | :30:36. | :30:40. | |
prevail in the Supreme Court today. It was absolutely right. He should | :30:40. | :30:44. | |
have not faced those charges or those views at all. Do you see him | :30:44. | :30:47. | |
then, people see him as a demonstrator, some people do, how | :30:48. | :30:53. | |
do you view him? I think it is outrageous for an American under | :30:53. | :30:58. | |
our constitution to use that term, you know, it is a term, it is the | :30:58. | :31:01. | |
only crime defined in our constitution to limit it to what it | :31:01. | :31:05. | |
was from what it was in the British Empire. That was because the people | :31:05. | :31:12. | |
who founded our constitution were traitors in the eyes of ING Emperor | :31:12. | :31:16. | |
George III. We were founded by traitors, they didn't want a law | :31:16. | :31:20. | |
criticising the King or the Government was treasonous, they | :31:20. | :31:24. | |
made the constitution that way, therefore Bradley Manning was not | :31:24. | :31:28. | |
charged with traesson formally, he couldn't be, because our deaf -- | :31:28. | :31:33. | |
trees son, he couldn't be, because it means you have to adhere to the | :31:33. | :31:37. | |
enemies of the United States, and it is clear he didn't do that to | :31:37. | :31:45. | |
Al-Qaeda or the Taliban, as much as I didn't to the vet con. The | :31:45. | :31:55. | |
:31:55. | :31:56. | ||
prosecution admitted itself itself to use that. Outrageous. Bradley | :31:56. | :32:00. | |
Manning has been compared to the founding fathers of the United | :32:00. | :32:08. | |
States of America? Rubbish, there is a technical definition of | :32:08. | :32:11. | |
treason in the constitution, that is about the only thing that Mr | :32:12. | :32:16. | |
Ellsberg is right about, that Mr Manning does not meet. The notion | :32:16. | :32:24. | |
that espionage laws and other laws that bar disclosure of classified | :32:24. | :32:30. | |
information utterly misleads the existing juris prudence, it is not | :32:30. | :32:33. | |
worth debating as it is for constitutional lawyers. I'm not a | :32:33. | :32:38. | |
lawyer, but I was the first person charged with that, and Mr Rivkin | :32:38. | :32:43. | |
doesn't know what he's talking about. If I may. Mr Rivkin. If I | :32:43. | :32:47. | |
can talk about it. If it hadn't been for Bradley Manning we | :32:47. | :32:51. | |
wouldn't have found out all the details of the mistreatment of | :32:51. | :32:55. | |
Iraqi prisoners, that may be embarrassing to the United States, | :32:55. | :32:58. | |
but surely that is something with the people of the United States | :32:58. | :33:08. | |
:33:08. | :33:08. | ||
would wish to know? It is criminal. Go ahead. We are a nation of laws | :33:08. | :33:14. | |
and not men. We are a Republic, a democracy, we are not a | :33:14. | :33:17. | |
totalitarian regime. If you are confronted with evidence of | :33:17. | :33:25. | |
wrongdoing. I disagree that abuses that came out were nothing to do | :33:25. | :33:28. | |
with Mr Manning. Both of our countries believe in the rule of | :33:28. | :33:37. | |
law and procedures of laws, whoa made Mr Manning and Edward Snowden | :33:37. | :33:42. | |
God, who allowed them to decide abuses occurred and then offer | :33:42. | :33:46. | |
reams of information and nobody elected them or appointed them. In | :33:46. | :33:51. | |
a democracy that is not how you proceed, that is the fundamental | :33:51. | :33:55. | |
problem with the self-appointed prophets of openness. The debate | :33:55. | :34:00. | |
now taking place in Congress, with 205 votes voting for the first time | :34:00. | :34:05. | |
to rein in the NSA would not be taking place if Edward Snowden had | :34:05. | :34:09. | |
done anything differently than what he did do. He had been tout of the | :34:10. | :34:14. | |
country as he saw from -- he had to be out of the country as he saw | :34:14. | :34:18. | |
from Bradley Manning and incommunicado as he is right now. | :34:18. | :34:21. | |
We owe him a great debt for starting the possibility of | :34:21. | :34:24. | |
remaining a democracy and not becoming the police state of which | :34:24. | :34:30. | |
we now have the infrastructure. The architecture, the archives. | :34:30. | :34:35. | |
Rivkin? Let me say the following, the essence of American | :34:35. | :34:40. | |
constitutional order and for that an order of any democracy is that | :34:40. | :34:43. | |
processes and procedures matter more than specific policy outcomes. | :34:43. | :34:49. | |
Even if you take Mr Ellsberg at his word that we some how became a | :34:49. | :34:54. | |
fascist totalitarian state. Don't misquote me Mr Rivkin. OK, even if | :34:54. | :35:00. | |
it were true, even if it were true horrific abuses are occuring, which | :35:00. | :35:04. | |
they are not, this is not the right way to proceed. Our constitution, | :35:04. | :35:08. | |
Bill of Rights, separation of powers, is essentially about how we | :35:08. | :35:13. | |
as a body and society deal with problems. Having people break that | :35:14. | :35:19. | |
oath and take it upon themselves. With respect Sir you don't | :35:19. | :35:24. | |
understand anything about American political systems, or political | :35:24. | :35:28. | |
philosophy. It is again not about your outcomes it is about how you | :35:28. | :35:33. | |
go about solving problems. Do you believe for example with injustice | :35:33. | :35:38. | |
we should take arms and rise in rebellion to cure this injustice. | :35:38. | :35:44. | |
You misquote me. Let's not do the War of Independence all over again. | :35:44. | :35:47. | |
What impact do you think this will have and The Snowman case will have | :35:47. | :35:52. | |
on whistleblowers in the future? I'm very encouraged by the fact | :35:52. | :35:55. | |
there is at last the discussion taking place in the Congress for | :35:55. | :36:01. | |
the first time on the fact that the reforms instituted by the church | :36:01. | :36:06. | |
committee have failed. The Pfizer amendment court has failed as a use | :36:06. | :36:10. | |
of the judicial terrain in the abuses of the NSA, the intelligence | :36:10. | :36:15. | |
committees have failed. In fact the idea that President Obama has said | :36:16. | :36:19. | |
the three branches of Government have participated in this when what | :36:19. | :36:23. | |
you have is a secret briefing of a gang of eight in the Congress, | :36:23. | :36:28. | |
secret decisions on secret law by a secret court, the amendment court, | :36:28. | :36:32. | |
that constitutes oversight and separation of powers, is simply | :36:32. | :36:38. | |
absurd to say that. The fact is our secrecy system is put. Gentlemen we | :36:38. | :36:42. | |
have run out of time. Now the North-South divide is something | :36:42. | :36:46. | |
that worries politicians in all the main political parties w Labour in | :36:46. | :36:50. | |
recent years stronger in Scotland and the north of England and the | :36:50. | :36:53. | |
Conservatives stronger in the other end of the country. Today that | :36:53. | :36:58. | |
divide was made flesh in the shape of a living, breathing Conservative | :36:58. | :37:02. | |
peer, Lord Howell of Guildford who talking about the north-east of | :37:02. | :37:07. | |
England as good for fracking to produce energy, because of large | :37:07. | :37:11. | |
desolate areas. The result was a small political earthquake. First a | :37:11. | :37:14. | |
bit of background, the Government, at least the Conservative portion | :37:14. | :37:17. | |
of the Government loves the idea of fracking, led by the Chancellor, | :37:17. | :37:21. | |
George Osborne, who has looked with some envy across the Atlantic at | :37:21. | :37:25. | |
cheaper energy prices that have come about on the back of fracking. | :37:25. | :37:29. | |
As a result economic growth and energy-intensive industries being | :37:29. | :37:33. | |
re-born in the United States N this country we are at a far earlier | :37:33. | :37:36. | |
stage. It is still very controversial, we are at the | :37:36. | :37:40. | |
evaluation stage, we are at testing and evaluations and seeing if this | :37:40. | :37:44. | |
thing will work. We are also at the stage of protest. People worried | :37:44. | :37:47. | |
about what might happen to their community. It is a very delicate | :37:47. | :37:50. | |
stage. The Government wants to get something done, people are worried | :37:50. | :37:56. | |
about it. Into this very delicate balance step forward Lord Howell, | :37:56. | :37:59. | |
former Conservative Energy Secretary way back, he was in Mrs | :37:59. | :38:04. | |
Thatcher's first cabinet. What did he have to say? Would the minister | :38:04. | :38:08. | |
accept it could be a mistake to think of and discuss fracking in | :38:08. | :38:12. | |
terms of the whole UK in one go, there are obviously are in | :38:12. | :38:15. | |
beautiful rural areas, where it is not just the drilling and the | :38:15. | :38:18. | |
fracking which I think are exaggerated but the trucks and the | :38:18. | :38:22. | |
delivery and the roads and disturbance, those are justified | :38:22. | :38:26. | |
worries. But there are large and uninhabited and desolate areas, | :38:26. | :38:31. | |
certainly up in parts of the north- east where there is plenty of room | :38:31. | :38:41. | |
:38:41. | :38:44. | ||
for fracking.... ( talking and laughter) well away from anybody's | :38:44. | :38:47. | |
residence without any threat to the rural environment. That brought the | :38:47. | :38:51. | |
House down, he's not a Government minister, why does anybody care? | :38:51. | :38:55. | |
Downing Street has been quick to point that out, he doesn't speak | :38:55. | :39:00. | |
for anybody except himself. Why is it making the news? Two reasons I | :39:00. | :39:03. | |
suspect, we are on the doorstep of the silly season, the Commons has | :39:03. | :39:07. | |
packed up and headed off for the summer break. The Lords is still | :39:07. | :39:12. | |
sitting just, but there is a lack of political news around and there | :39:12. | :39:16. | |
was another reason did I mention that Lord Howell is George | :39:16. | :39:19. | |
Osborne's father-in-law. No man or woman can be held responsible for | :39:19. | :39:22. | |
what their father-in-law had to saying, I suspect the Chancellor | :39:23. | :39:27. | |
would have father his wife's dad picked his words a little more | :39:27. | :39:32. | |
carefully. What has been the reaction? Labour MPs have said this | :39:32. | :39:35. | |
shows that Conservatives are out- of-touch, that they are hostile in | :39:35. | :39:38. | |
fact to other parts of the country apart from the south-east of | :39:38. | :39:41. | |
England. On Twitter we have heard about the nasty Side of Twitter | :39:41. | :39:44. | |
this evening, there has been some fun to be had. Particularly from | :39:44. | :39:47. | |
people posting rather lovely pictures of the north-east of | :39:47. | :39:53. | |
England, of which we can see a selection here. Under the hashtag | :39:53. | :39:59. | |
desolate. Lord Howell has issued a statement apologising, he said he | :39:59. | :40:04. | |
never intended to say the north- east of desolate, he said there are | :40:04. | :40:08. | |
parts of the country less densely inhabited than others. The north- | :40:08. | :40:14. | |
east is less densely inhabited, there are two out of 29 MPs | :40:14. | :40:17. | |
Conservative, I don't suspect what happened today will improve that | :40:17. | :40:22. | |
proportion any time soon. Brazil was once the ultimate | :40:22. | :40:25. | |
fantasy destination, the beaches, the carnival, the music, the | :40:25. | :40:29. | |
football, more recently the Brazilian dream has included rapid | :40:29. | :40:34. | |
economic growth, putting the bee in the called BRIC countries, was that | :40:34. | :40:38. | |
another fantasy? This summer has seen riots across Brazil, the | :40:38. | :40:43. | |
Pope's visit this month highlighted great equalities. One man who ought | :40:43. | :40:48. | |
to know the Brazilian realitys is former Culture Minister and | :40:48. | :40:54. | |
musician, Gilberto Gil, we caught up with him here on the summer | :40:54. | :41:01. | |
festival circuit. This is what cabinet ministers do after they | :41:01. | :41:11. | |
leave office. Well Brazilian cabinet ministers, to be fair. | :41:11. | :41:21. | |
:41:21. | :41:28. | ||
Gilberto Gil, former Culture Secretary, to be specific, Hello, | :41:28. | :41:35. | |
I'm Stephen, very nice to meet you. Newsnight met him in a corner of | :41:35. | :41:40. | |
the WOMAD music festival. We have cleared a space in the woods for U | :41:40. | :41:44. | |
We began by talking about the recent riots in his homeland, he | :41:44. | :41:51. | |
believes they were coming for a long time. I see as a natural | :41:51. | :42:01. | |
:42:01. | :42:04. | ||
consequence of you know everything that's been going on. Globally. | :42:04. | :42:09. | |
People having access to information and to possibilities to act | :42:09. | :42:15. | |
politically and everything, and of course I mean in the new element, | :42:15. | :42:22. | |
they are the new technologies. The World Cup and the Olympics and | :42:22. | :42:27. | |
the expenditure for putting those games together, they are just | :42:27. | :42:34. | |
triggering elements for something that has been accumulating for | :42:34. | :42:38. | |
longer and longer and longer. was no surprise to you? For me, no. | :42:38. | :42:45. | |
No surprise. I think the world was surprised. The world...It Shouldn't | :42:45. | :42:55. | |
:42:55. | :42:56. | ||
Gil has mixed the musical traditions of his huge country with | :42:56. | :43:00. | |
western styles, as a new documentary shows. He has been a | :43:00. | :43:05. | |
social reformer and political activist. Thrown in jail for his | :43:05. | :43:12. | |
pains in the late 60s under a military dictatorship. A decade ago | :43:12. | :43:17. | |
he was in power himself. In the centre left Government of President | :43:17. | :43:21. | |
Lula. A bit of a lifestyle change for a | :43:21. | :43:27. | |
strolling Troubadour. Being there and having to deal with | :43:27. | :43:37. | |
the whole you know state affair thing it's hard. It is difficult. | :43:37. | :43:42. | |
Once upon a time it might have been Gil hosting the Pope on his first | :43:42. | :43:48. | |
overseas visit to Brazil. He's going to the favelas, to the slums, | :43:48. | :43:58. | |
:43:58. | :43:58. | ||
and telling people keep on trying, you know. Carry on. Struggle. Don't | :43:58. | :44:02. | |
submit yourselves. So in a sense he's playing the game. He is from | :44:02. | :44:11. | |
Argentina, he's from a background of enduring and supporting workers | :44:11. | :44:17. | |
and supporting poor communities and everything. So he knows you know. | :44:17. | :44:24. | |
He's in, he's in his place. The World Cup is happening in | :44:24. | :44:28. | |
Brazil next year, how do you think it is going to go, will it pass off | :44:28. | :44:32. | |
peacefully? We just had the Confederation Cup a month, less | :44:32. | :44:38. | |
than a month ago. We had, we're able to open the new stadiums, you | :44:39. | :44:45. | |
know. With riots going on down the streets? With riots going on down | :44:45. | :44:53. | |
the streets, and I mean both things at the same time. I think that will | :44:53. | :44:56. | |
prevail for the World Cup and for the Olympics too. You think they | :44:56. | :45:03. | |
will pass off peacefully? I think so. I think so. | :45:03. | :45:07. | |
# So don't worry # About a thing | :45:07. | :45:11. | |
# Because everything will be all right | :45:11. | :45:14. | |
Gilberto Gil's tribute to Bob Marley, both to be considered stars | :45:14. | :45:19. | |
of world music. Is that a good category to be in? Or a bit of a | :45:19. | :45:29. | |
:45:29. | :45:29. | ||
pigeonhole? ,r It's a little unfair in that sense, but at the same time | :45:29. | :45:36. | |
it gives the world, you know, a goal, a chance to say we have a | :45:36. | :45:42. | |
global music, we have a universal language. So from that side it is a | :45:42. | :45:52. | |
:45:52. | :45:54. | ||
little positive. Whatever you call it, Gil, at 71, | :45:54. | :46:00. | |
continues to bring his music from Bahia in Brazil to the sun-kissed | :46:00. | :46:09. | |
Savannahs of the UK and beyond. I have been able to survive, I have | :46:09. | :46:15. | |
been able to you, you know, to do my thing, to do my travellings, to | :46:15. | :46:20. | |
do my, I have also as well great support from the industry and great | :46:20. | :46:30. | |
:46:30. | :46:32. | ||
support from the society, from the public. And you will keep going? | :46:32. | :46:35. | |
Until I die I hope! Nice to meet you. | :46:35. | :46:38. |
