00:00:00is a budget that's geared towards growth, that's what they wanted to put forward,
00:00:04designed to reign in spending on things that do not
00:00:08Sonko, he didn't flee, he produce in order to get France's debt under control. now the last
00:00:11thing this government wants is Queen Ursla and the EU
00:00:14officially babysitting France because it's about to crater the rest of the
00:00:18euro zone's economy. because this objectively
00:00:22ridiculous socialist french system, one of the biggest public
00:00:25spenders on the planet, has basically by this point
00:00:29spent itself. into oblivion, and among
00:00:32the consequences is the creation of these
00:00:35enormous bureaucratic fifedums in the civil
00:00:38service, particularly in sectors like
00:00:41academia, and who do you think is running the
00:00:44public crash outs that we're seeing in the streets right now? it's
00:00:48these very same public sector unions that do
00:00:52this every single year at this time. last year they wrote the
00:00:55private sector unions into it as a strategy, this year they wrote the
00:00:59students. into it as a strategy to use as like
00:01:02bullwork a front for their movement. now this
00:01:05problem is that the they aren't exactly
00:01:09productive sectors. defense and related
00:01:12research by contrast can generate roughly
00:01:16uh euro of GDP for every euro of public money spent, which is
00:01:19why this seemingly endless threat of war with Russia is such boon for
00:01:23the French economy. it gives the government a convenient way to pry open the
00:01:27taxpayers wallets by keeping everyone sufficiently. terrified,
00:01:31but for everyone else, you could say that time's up and the
00:01:35party's over for all the sectors and there are lots of them
00:01:39in France that have gotten really accustomed to taking more out of the system than
00:01:43they put back in, which is a really difficult message to
00:01:46sell the folks whose complacency has been
00:01:49subsidized for decades with public cash, and that's the
00:01:52underlying problem that's finally coming home to roose here, because as
00:01:56Margaret thatcher once famously said, these guys... to
00:02:00paraphrase her, have run out of other people's money, and unless France
00:02:04can find a way to somehow generate more growth
00:02:08without just tossing more money at the problem, there's
00:02:11really no way out for them that makes any sense. they'd have to do something
00:02:14really radical, like for example, cut taxes
00:02:18to a flat 12 or 15%
00:02:22across the board, eliminate every single tax loophole that
00:02:25allows for breaks, kill every subsidy and benefit in favor of
00:02:29people paying. their own way for whatever they want rather than depending on the
00:02:33government for handouts, but that would require not
00:02:36just some
00:02:39Africa, the topic in leadership and vision, yeah, good luck
00:02:43topic of there,
00:03:00news updates at the top of the
00:04:51trade, and high ranking members of
00:08:22if for example today there's a
00:08:24pirogue that's in Boudoudi at the
00:08:27Boudoudi point that will leave
00:08:30tomorrow at 5am heading to
00:08:33Spain, what are you going to do? What are you going to
00:08:36do? Married, if
00:08:39it were me, yes, I would leave.
00:08:44You, if it were you, go ahead and argue. Yes, because
00:08:47nothing is easy in life.
00:08:51Nothing is easy in life. Yes, he who tries nothing will get nothing
00:08:54in life. You'll always be there saying I'll wait, I'll wait,
00:08:58my parents didn't have the means to
00:09:01pay for a plane ticket, I don't have the
00:09:04means to get a scholarship abroad, hm hm. My
00:09:08sisters have been stuck since first grade, I'm going to
00:09:11go. I have a plan, it's very clear. I'm going to prepare myself from here
00:09:15psychologically, because I'm going there illegally. Everything I'll
00:09:19find there, I'll endure and know that I'm the one who
00:09:22decided to go, so everything I'll face, I'll endure in order to
00:09:26find what I want. Very
00:09:29good.
00:09:32For me, in my case, as the eldest of my family, instead
00:09:36of leaving and being in uncertainty, I prefer to stay here and be
00:09:39content with the little I have with my family. Yes,
00:09:43deep down, if it were me, I would go without my
00:09:47parents knowing, because if, if, if they knew,
00:09:50they would stop me from going because most of my parents, if I tell them
00:09:54I'm going somewhere, they're already upset with me. Now, if
00:09:58it's, I'm going to leave, but telling my
00:10:01friends that tomorrow I can leave. So once
00:10:05I arrive in Europe, it will be good news
00:10:08for my parents, but if once I also perish
00:10:13it will be bad news for
00:10:16Yes, I say that if it were me, I wouldn't
00:10:20leave because, first of all, I know that my mother wouldn't
00:10:23let me go. Hm hm. I'd prefer to take the legal route,
00:10:27go there with complete
00:10:30papers, like my father did, okay?
00:10:34Here in front of me, I've heard many of my classmates
00:10:37say that they're going to leave, but
00:10:40even if you leave, what, what will prove to you that
00:10:44once you arrive there, you'll have
00:10:47a stable life? Because even there, there are poor people.
00:10:51There are people who were born there but don't have a roof over their heads.
00:10:55If it were me, I would stay. Okay,
00:10:57fine. As women, are you
00:11:01afraid to travel for all
00:11:04these reasons? The fear of being raped, the fear
00:11:08of being assaulted, the fear of losing your life. Are you afraid, or will you
00:11:12still risk it to uh
00:11:14cross?
00:11:19Yes, let's tell the truth, uh, men can
00:11:23travel without necessarily having all these risks, uh, whereas
00:11:26if we travel, there will be risks of being raped,
00:11:30of being pregnant, uh, then of being uh completely
00:11:33destabilized. Whereas if men
00:11:36travel, yes, they are in good conditions, they won't have to be
00:11:40raped, they won't have to uh to have
00:11:44all that, uh. So, as a woman, I will
00:11:47travel, I will be respected, I won't be touched until I
00:11:50arrive, uh, because I'll have something to defend myself with
00:11:54anyway.
00:17:07is by rushing them the capabilities that they need to defend their
00:17:10country,
00:17:14everyone knows very well that we don't sell bananas, pineapples or any kind of
00:17:17children's toys, we sell weapons, yes we're also known in
00:17:21the world as arms dealers, but we must not be ashamed of that.
00:18:11we're going to talk about a current
00:18:17West, the whole world, it's the
00:18:21immigration.
00:18:23What do you think? Are you for immigration or are you against
00:18:27immigration? Now, you argue, you give your arguments.
00:18:30Married, I am for immigration
00:18:34for some good reasons. First of all...
00:18:38the depths of this country, Senegal, in
00:18:42some families, there's not enough food, drinking
00:18:45water, these are huge problems, electricity,
00:18:48let's not even talk about it. You see a minister, a single
00:18:52minister who will hold seven positions, and in these seven
00:18:55positions, he will tell you I invested so many millions
00:18:59for health. This health, you see the hospital, these are
00:19:02problems.
00:19:04You were told in education, you come to school, certainly... my students
00:19:08haven't paid for their education yet because of
00:19:11family situations and the state must take these social cases, these are
00:19:15problems. You are told it invested that to
00:19:19make public goods, investigations
00:19:22that you don't even see. You are aware of the risks you can encounter
00:19:26at sea, you are aware of the risks you can encounter everywhere you
00:19:30go illegally, but here you say, create, if you
00:19:34die, you're buried and the dreams you had in... using
00:19:38the things you imagined doing, the things greater than you
00:19:42imagined doing, after that it's messed up. And if you also mentioned
00:19:45the account of African countries,
00:19:48there, we identified that
00:19:52racism is more frequent in the West
00:19:55than in Africa. We young Africans recognize ourselves thanks to our
00:19:59black skin, because the true African, the true African citizen, does
00:20:03not flee. We are not fleeing, we are doing...
00:20:07the quest for happiness, the quest for research. Listen carefully to what I
00:20:11have to tell you. Here in Senegal, the
00:20:14governors, the prefects, the
00:20:16sub-prefects, the president, the
00:20:19ministers and the deputies who are with him are
00:20:23the richest in the country, whereas when they started, they didn't even have 8
00:20:26billion in their account, they had a minimum, I would say a maximum
00:20:30of 5 to 6 million. Now you see a minister's son,
00:20:33he already has a bank account with
00:20:37millions. His own car that takes him to
00:20:39school, and yet his father, you were in the same neighborhood and you say
00:20:43that the governors share positions and everything, but that's
00:20:47us who should change that because we are... students, tomorrow we will be
00:20:51great leaders, great leaders who will decide
00:20:54and look, let's take the case of Ousmane
00:20:58said I'll go all the way, he didn't leave his country even though he was
00:21:01asked to leave his country, but he said I'll go all the way with the
00:21:05other compatriots, these other compatriots. That's why today we
00:21:09are for the truth, we don't flee, they kill us here, we stay
00:21:12here because here is our soil, it's African soil, they bury us here, it's better
00:21:16to be buried somewhere where we are subjected to racism and we are
00:21:50like that here, the state has all the power and we
00:21:54are not the state, we are only spectators, we
00:21:57just watch. Wait, wait, but wait, wait,
00:22:01but the fact, but wait, but the fact of leaving, of leaving for Europe and you
00:22:05left problems here, huh? In 3
00:22:08to 5 years, you want to return here to your country with the
00:22:12situations you left here. How can you set up
00:22:15the things you want to achieve here in Africa by helping your own
00:22:19country?
00:22:57He who leaves for survival and he who believes that the
00:23:01life he loses is worth nothing, well, that one's strength is one because he's not
00:23:05afraid of death. But wait, but a person who is sure that when he leaves,
00:23:08he will bring something, you know you don't have proper papers,
00:23:12you have nothing and you you go with the guy, she
00:23:16said, while you're talking about this subject, no, she said, and you say that
00:28:32how are you?
00:28:35We are going to talk about a very important, very
00:28:38sensitive topic, and from that, I am going to
00:28:42ask you to define for me a
00:28:45word that is easy to define, but
00:28:49difficult to bear. It is about
00:28:52racism. And I am going to
00:28:56ask you if anyone can define for me what racism
00:29:00is. Who can define this word racism
00:29:03among you? There are even people here in
00:29:07Africa who are racist, they don't like to speak other languages apart
00:29:11from their mother tongue, they don't like to be in other ethnic groups apart
00:29:15from their own ethnicities. There are some white
00:29:18students who cover it because they say that black people are bad
00:29:22like that. And if it were me, I would repost
00:29:25by saying that I am proud of my skin as
00:29:28well as all kinds hm
00:29:32of charisma as well as my nature, you know,
00:29:36okay, my culture, my skin color, and so on, I
00:29:40will defend myself as F does
00:29:42so well. Frankly, I think
00:29:45that racism must stop, because we are no longer in colonial
00:29:49times, hm hm. They treat us like beasts,
00:29:53animals, as my comrades also said. I don't think
00:29:56racism should continue because
00:30:30against a torture house that was run by military are
00:30:33targeted by authorities, with some already detained and
00:30:37forced to apologize on
00:30:39camera.
00:30:42Distressing images as Ukraine's anti-corruption agents expose
00:30:45deep and lucrative ties between criminal
00:30:48organizations conducting kidnappings, beatings and drug
00:30:54the country's security services. Graphic
00:30:57footage of a savage attack by one such group.
