9:30 am
the up against the final stretch that whitehouse. com there's something w focused on your it looks at how the spanish island of mac york is trying to control poverty tourism. i'll be backed up at the top of the the, [000:00:00;00] the, this is focus on europe. i'm lara. babel a welcome to the show. britain's health care sector is in a state of crisis. millions of patients are on waiting lists with the publicly funded national health service or n h s. care workers are overwhelmed. the low wages and high stress levels have led to an exodus of professionals in the sector. many blame the former conservative
9:31 am
administration policy experts say they failed to adequately fund the system. during their 14 years in power, the new labor government has about to fix the n h s. but that could take years and 2 year old delilah needs health. now her mother fears the delay will affect the wireless development. yeah. a lot of hassle getting her daughter to eat as a test of patients for chloe therapy. sure. do you, real delilah usually spits everything out in time ever since she was born, delilah has avoided eating solid food. she doesn't particularly 8 any food like as useful. she the, i need food, i'd say she eats a little bit all these chase, and i mean this is how much is in that ball that i offer. and that doesn't
9:32 am
even get a, an in a dies. chloe's has tried everything as well, other toddlers, her age are long used to eating normally, meals delilah will only drink from the bottle. her mother suspects eating disorder linked to autism. but she's not sure the family doctors haven't been able to help. and chloe's been waiting 6 months for an appointment with a specialist. every single thoughts off professional though i say that a lot, you know, i've never come across the case of this. so you're not, i don't really know what to do. so then it's not, it was it. so they now should be same last question is within a certain amount of time because there's none of them come across. it tells me it's not unique or it's out there that it's not just going to resolve itself. over 6000000 british patients have been waiting months or even years for an appointment with a specialist. for years, the former conservative government spitting less on the health care system than
9:33 am
comparable european countries. that was one of the big issues in the election at the beginning of july this year. andrew myers and as an emergency doctor, he says the situation many hospitals reach breaking point long ago. so emergency care is awful for clinicians for patients. we're seeing patients that have to sit in our waiting room stuff to sit in the carters waiting for care of people that are dying on the back services waiting to be brought in, say any dying in inside a or any departments? i. i fortunately work it, it was a quite a good hospital where we don't see a lot of that. but just knowing that that exist in so many different places and somebody from hospitals across this country is, is just, it's devastating doctors and nurses are leaving around 100000 posts in england are unfilled. the professionals are attracted to careers abroad with better pay in working conditions. many of those who stay can't cope with the pressure and suffer physically and mentally. we're seeing record numbers of our colleagues having mental health crises,
9:34 am
taking time off of work because of mental crises. and i've been to the memorial services of, of colleagues who have killed themselves because their work is just far too difficult and they, they took too much of them. and that's, that's also to do with. 6 doctors and nurses going straight to poor working conditions, which then leads to even worse patient care. the new labor government has promised more money, shorter waiting times, and new stuff for the health care sector. that's urgently needed, says meyerson. we need to fill the hole that was, that was left by the less of the we need more hospital beds within the inner chest . we lost 25000. the last decade we need, we need to stop the steps. hemorrhage. we need to stop losing $20000.00 doctors every year, 40000 nurses, and we need to solve the certificate prices. because if we take a patients out of hospitals, we're wasting billions there. and then we're providing terrible care about 10 months. chloe,
9:35 am
kirby sure agrees. there's no way things can stay as they are while she's worried about her daughter's future. so the to view and wait in this for a child is just wrong. it's not like it's a room pain appointment like, oh, you know, it's just this, it's, uh it's, it's a serious thing. what she's going to be 5, what she's going to be putting in school because she can only have formula. right? so far, all her mother's efforts to shorten this long wait has been anything the a mass protest and calls for quotas residence on the spanish islands may orca are flushing back against over tourism calls for crowd controls are also happening. other european nations travel is booming after the pandemic. but for residents and tourism hotspots, there's little cause for celebration. housing shortage is
9:36 am
a soaring rent. prices and pollution are fueling and t torres and sentiment. spain is also trying to climb down on rowdy behavior in places like fly, a diploma authorities have bound the public consumption of alcohol in certain areas . still, some locals feel that not enough is being done to address the problem. it's party time in my orca. tens of thousands of tourists, mostly germans, are letting their hair down on the fly, a diploma. much to the annoyance of neighbors like luis, as we'll call him to keep him anonymous. he lived here for 25 years. i can be of the people tourism is totally changed to the law. it's just one big drinking spree. so we feel powerless with me. i have to sleep with earplugs because it's so loud i pulled on which the did blame for the nights out is in plain sight, empty bottles, tens. despite the regional governments crack down on several of the islands party zones fly,
9:37 am
a diploma has banded drinking on the street or the beach with fines ranging up to 1500 zeroes. and shops that sell alcohol must close at 9 30 pm. and that even colorado and me go pass while i'm fighting for the new rules to be enforced. they live in the party zone and have joined the neighborhood association to deal with it. the goal, this place is like a theme park. when the tourists are out on the town, they come lurching through the neighborhood this fall down around for a while urinating the st. all of the walk. everyone does. oh, well, assuming the daughter. yeah. here's the problem. i, the government has to start capitalizing the shops, the don't stick to the sales hours, or the load idea is that right? that's the, that's an example of the crap we'd have to put up with have germans in my family, myself,
9:38 am
and i'm ashamed of this behavior. and that if somebody at the party starts in broad daylight to the tourist, it's pre drinking at the beach. even though they've heard about the alcohol being for us, it's just a classic drinking holiday. it's a shame not being allowed to drink on the beach right now. saw the phones so it was yeah, let's buy some wine shafts on the beach somewhere to drink. but we're not actually allowed to do that. and then we just bought some bottles and told them to sell it and you stayed with them, but i still see people consuming a lot of alcohol here and personally, i don't see much of a police presence yet. so the initial nice agreement becomes i've just done this with the neighborhood association is disappointed with the authorities. the noise from the party tourist isn't limited to the street. the fiesta continues on hotel balcony and in the apartment blocks because more and more flats are being rented out to tourist i,
9:39 am
for your terminal. we've been hearing that the problems being dealt with for years . now the problem remains and nobody really wants to do anything because the tourism brings in money because we made several requests in writing and by phone to the regional government of the bali arctic islands of which my york is the largest . but we weren't given an interview nor any information. the beatrice cheek ardini runs a german restaurant. she's lived on my yorker for 50 years. now. she's a student of the behavior of many taurus incense as a change in the atmosphere between foreigners and locals. i never used to feel like a 4 and a half a now over the last few years i really all treated like a 4 and the one actually speaking, how well i've blown tire. so i must be a tourist now because many hotel operators are worried to the chairman of
9:40 am
a local hotel association. pedro many has been fighting for years to increase hotel quality and width prices. they're also trying to deter party taurus by imposing a minimum length of stay. you know, so that's just us as for the source and by the only use it for it to, to attract respectable tourists, are not enough that i think you have to sensitize people in their country of origin and one living that they should comment. enjoy the benefits that we share with this stuff and not just claim it for themselves as she and then we all have to treat it with karen and we'll stick with that. and the local population may well start spinning out if something is it done soon? the weeks no longer wants to put up with the noise is equal those to see if it stays like this or it gets worse. i need a plan b or i'll have to move away with them. but again, i've already thought about moving into my mother's flag on me. that's how the new
9:41 am
model is more residents follow his example, the party zone apply a diploma will soon be completely in the hands of tourist. it's the lightest metal on earth. and one of the most sought after lithium is a key component for powering electric vehicles. and for the transition towards net 0 emissions, serbia is home to vast deposits of lithium, located in the outer valley, but plans to extract it are being met with resistance. in recent weeks, tens of thousands turned out to protest against plans to build a mine. they believe extracting lithium will contaminate the land and water supply . maria olympus and her family have lived in the valley for generations. and despite assurances from authorities and the mining company, she fears the project will ruin their way of life. in this part is gone. you need a lead in serbia as a yard, our valley has become
9:42 am
a ghost town. the people are gone. the houses will soon be making way for a lifting a mind. they were bought up by the british australian real 10 to a group for its mining operations. the lithium deposits here are thought to be the largest in europe, in an orchard, not far from the ghost town, maria and her father, monkey lo taste, this year's plums. she's the 13th generation of her family to live here all this time. nobody gave this remote area a 2nd thought that changed when lithium was found. since then. the subscript valley has become an object of desire. it was kind of the free area. 33030 is you like to call it still today because no techs, no jim is every serially and it's so even today, even though didn't seem to manage to buy all some lines in the. 7 here in the mountains, they didn't buy anything. they didn't even manage to finish the reset. but the
9:43 am
father and daughter did and learned that the plans, mine and slack he would come within a 100 meters of their land. a few years ago, mom, she low spot of the 1st exploratory drill holes nearby. they refused to sell their land and hope other local residents won't either. a mine would change everything here. they must be what. what do you think would be in there wouldn't be no more life here for us. right underneath the plan mind on our bountiful, underground spring. so that keep our village, i know you and many neighboring villages supply with waterways. so, you know, because over me score the lithium mind controversy has reached low as need to the regions biggest city, a protest billboard on the roadside says no to the mine. yes. to life. a re attempt to runs an info center in town. but nobody seems to wants to talk openly about it. many here are afraid,
9:44 am
the mining operation might contaminate the water supply or the drain. a river, the real 10 toes offices, and serbia's capital belgrade manager murray, auntie by beach, is doing what you can to make sure. lithium mining can begin as soon as possible the you and in particular, germany and it's car manufacturers are keenly interested in the lithium from the younger valley. 650 of promotional video to picks the plant mine as a clean and modern showcase project ever wherever you can. investments of 2 and a half 1000000000 euros the mining underground. ok, and enough lithium for 1000000 electric cars and thousands of well paid jobs for me . opponents are spreading false information according to bob beach. everyone that's we encourage everyone to actually learn about the fact and not the extra and the trust. everything that everyone says about the project. as to our communication,
9:45 am
i have to say we could have communicated further in the more layman's terms, to be very honest, we are a technical company, so we communicate in technical terms. back to maria and pitch for personal reasons for protecting against the lithium mine, so persistently is right here on our property or families cemetery. my great grandfather is in great grandfather's, they themselves declined even in the car this times of their lives. so why would i do this now? you know, on the 13 generation of the owner of, of this one. so we cannot said that the, simply not the question come to discuss that. it's a no, no means no. maria is determined to preserve what she can of her ancestors legacy. a facing our own mortality is a subject that's too overwhelming for many to look death in the eye and take stock
9:46 am
of one's life requires courage. and at times a helping hand sabrina girl. it's guides, terminally ill, people through the final phase of their lives. she helps people like using the google come to terms with the past and present through story telling. it's a process that allows patients to reflect on all that has transpired during their time on earth and gives their loved ones a sense of closure. traveling between have an end. simply not good, it's is on her way to the next live story. the 43 year old needs people shortly before the death. to look back. one last time i just have a guy, i'm about to meet mrs gigabyte book. she's never to a very old age. that means i have a great long so 87 years ahead of me when i asked for sams would be couldn't sign via the challenge will be to bring it down to the essentials and about so now of very visual ones. that's what the price of the 2 women have an appointment today at
9:47 am
11 o'clock at the hospice and handbook. hello. hello, is this kind of i nice to see you. this is a matt with us. yes. he's like is the mode has terminal on consent shortly before her death. she wants to look back on her life. she particularly remembers the path of her son, whom she brought home from hospitality wrapped in thick blankets on a hot summer's day. the fun and money. my husband called the hospital with our childs as a, we've taken him out of hospital, but he's always crying. what are we supposed to do? then the nurse on the other end asked and then what do you see wrapped in blankets? uh to take them off. oh, cd in an hour and
9:48 am
a half they want to see how nice everything is recorded on the plane us phone. then he's like is out of stuffs, talking about the death of a husband multiple. let's because sometimes i talk to him. but as we go to, my daughter in law says we're all connected me things she says will all see each other again. that comforts me afterwards. so that's the not going to write everything down. she usually receives a small amount of money for this. the result is a book that of around 15 pages that can be passed on to a relative. the hospice manager supports the project. they are selling, give especially the creation of this booklet, mix it and necessary for everyone involved to come to terms with the situation. for many in and this is painful at 1st because it means looking at the end of life and the names,
