12:02 am
as historic and says it allows both sides to begin a new chapter. disputes about the deal have prevented a government from forming in northern ireland. shot a hull has more. it's not often in u. k. e u relations that optimism wins the day. so this was a rare moment, a smile that said a deal had been done. today's agreement delivers smooth flowing trade within the whole united kingdom protects northern islands place and our union and safeguards sovereignty for the people of northern ireland. the use chief executive hailed a new honesty in the relationship and spoke of her pride in the so named winds of framework. updating the original northern ireland protocol that governs post brags in trade between the u. k, and the e u. this new frame at will allow us to begin a new chapter. it provides for long lasting solutions that both of us a confident will work for all people and businesses in northern ireland. the deal
12:03 am
provides for smooth the trade between the u. k. mainland and northern ireland eliminating most checks on basic food stuffs, plants and medicines. it said to safeguard the good friday peace agreement while upholding the sovereignty of northern ireland. allowing its devolved assembly a veto of a future rules decided by brussels. a so called storm on to break, but no deal can overcome the fundamental briggs. it contradiction that northern ireland remains in both the u. k and the e use single market for goods. and so the role of a law though diminished won't disappear entirely, that a deal breaker for northern ireland democratic unionists and the hard core pro griggs, who peas in the conservative party, both of whom the prime minister appealed to when he addressed later that he does what many feds could not be done removing thousands of pages of law and
12:04 am
making permanent legally binding changes to the protocol treaty itself. the prime minister has confirmed that a vote will take place inside the house of commons before this new deal can become u. k. law. there's no chance of losing it, he's already been promised the support of the opposition labor party. what mr. tonight will hope to avoid, however, is for yet another new divide to form inside the conservative party of the breaks, it breaks it was supposed to be done at the end of 20. 20 intrusive was never going to be done until the problem of northern ireland was the u. k. and you leaders are hoping it finally has variable jonah, how al jazeera london or leaving the european union men to trade border was needed between the u. k. and the block, but that couldn't happen between northern ireland and the republic of on it because of the peace agree that ended years of violence. so the border was pushed between northern ireland and the rest of the united kingdom. which angered unionists under
12:05 am
the windsor framework where she soon acts as there will be a smooth flow of trade within the u. k. with good separated into a green lane for goods traveling to northern ireland and a red lane for goods moving into the e u. he says it will remove any sense of a border in the irish see will join me now. here in the studio is leon. emerald lay a former aide to u. k. cabinet minister steve barkley, during his time as breakfast. secretary, thanks so much for joining us. of course, a huge amount of detail does a $30000.00 word document, but one of the key differences in this wins of framework compared to what's gone before. well, it's a fairly substantial renegotiation leave in the sense that the, the whole way in which northern island is treated in the good the travel of goods between northern ireland, a great britain is entirely different effectively gone. is the border in the irish c gone is the need for checks on all goods entering northern ireland. and instead, what we've got is a much more practical way of doing things that still allows goods to travel freely
12:06 am
between northern ireland and great britain, as well as maintaining the integrity of the e u. single market. so it is significant, as you say, 30000 words, a huge amounts of fir, of political gymnastics i think, is fair to say have been put into action as opposed to get this over the line when it comes to re, she soon acts work behind the scenes as a former senior aide to steve barkley, the former bricks at secretary, a so called hard line bricks, a tiered apiece appears. now he is willing to back. this was different, this time around. what a soon i could sheathed. well, i think he took a risk here, and the risk was effectively negotiating this deal unilaterally without bringing in those hard line breaks. it is, as you describe from the outset and what that's done as effectively made it a lot harder or could have made a lot harder for him to sell the deal back in westminster. but the fact that a steve baker come out and supported the deal, one of those key members of the, of the e r g, i think is great news for the prime minister. and if we look back to his re shuffle,
12:07 am
when he took office, he installed in the northern island office, chris eton harris, who was a former member of the r g, a secretary of state. and steve baker as his deputy. so you've effectively got those cheerleaders ready made to sell that deal back in parliament, and to sell it to any one who might have some, some doubts over it, of course, was also changed as that support for the conservative party has plummeted in the polls or surely this was just her an opportunity that they were forced into doing to coalesce around richie sooner because of the challenges at the party now faces or yes, i mean the political situation in the u. k is obviously changed significantly. the conservative party do not look in a good way politically right now, but i think that richie soon that deserves credit for number one, identifying the problem and number to finding a workable solution around it. and i think that when we look at his track record over the small amount of time he's been in office, actually it doesn't look too bad if he is able to make a bricks. it,
12:08 am
they'll work for northern ireland and the u. k. and perhaps perhaps this is the beginning of an uptick into conservative parties. fortunes just going back to your time as a senior aide, to the for a rex, a secretary steven barclay. i mean you have literally been in the room when key bricks. it strategy was formed. why have all the plans up to this point been so disastrous? well, there's been a very complicated set of scenarios that both the european union and the u. k. government have that to deal with. and i think any one can pretend that bricks, it is not incredibly complicated, which it is, and it's a series of essentially compromises and no one in politics likes compromise. and i think that's why it's become so difficult to create a deal that, that works for, for the country and, and for the european union to. but hopefully, with richie soon as appointment, maybe they saw the opinion european union saw in him someone who they could do business with someone who was perhaps more pragmatic than his predecessor bars. johnson, and that's led to this breakthrough, which i think is,
12:09 am
is welcome or it will as talk boris johnson, precisely what this deal appears to do. it's rip up the arrangement created by the former prime minister boys johnson that would allow the u. k. to unilaterally pull out of anything that it doesn't like with brussels, is this the only way the conservative party can get things done is to complete the arrays, boys, johnson, from the equation. i think that's certainly what number 10. and she soon act will be hoping to do is to get rid of the shadow of boris johnson that's been looming over british politics ever since he departed office. so i think this deal has essentially silenced bars. johnson. we get to hear his reaction to it and i apparently source is close to him. say that he is looking over the detail of it, but that isn't something the boys johnson is known for. he certainly is not a details man, but yet here he is being silenced, plotting his next move and how he does react to this. so i do think boyish thompson has been put in a corner and in one degree and that will please she soon act or more than more than most, not

12:17 am
a growing awareness of the help it needs now is would a little bit over, we will rebuild these cities from scratch. we will not just repair and restore things, we will rebuild and new on takia from scratch. then what i stumbled on it, of course, does, can also affect the industries in a stumble and anchor. that's why we need to take action as soon as possible in industrial zones, like this one up with the museum at this glass manufacturer, the buildings are intact, but the stock pile of completed glass bears testimony to the quakes violence, 80 percent of the sheet glass doors here that 700 tons, either smashed or damaged, getting industrial zones like this one working again is seen as vital with some estimates saying this one region is now responsible for nearly 10 percent of the country's economic output. normally employing 120 workers in his machine making factory lot for knows recovery will be slow starting 1st with providing the homes

12:34 am
lions and otters have been found infected or dead. there's also been a recent outbreak at a mnc farm in spain. fears have been fueled in part by the detection of an of infection in a variety of mammals, including foxes, recount bears and seals. for this month, the world health organization said the risks to humans remains low. oh, richard webby is an infectious disease researcher at saint jude children's research hospital in memphis, tennessee. he joins me now live for more or less welcome to the news hour. as i mentioned there, we've had several deaths in, in cambodia including that 11 year old girl, c lions and other mammals dying and peru in else where. where are we right now in our understanding about the seriousness of h 5 and one? yes. so it's a great question. you know what, what we do know about this bias is that it is still very much a bird virus. so that's the host that it's most able to infect and replicate
12:35 am
in. yeah, and now we're seeing these uptake in the number of mammal infections. and obviously the, the tragic cases were saying and humans as well. but these seem to be the thought of the rarity rather than sort of a common event. so that's what we're keeping on right now, is why we sort of focus and we see these mammal and fictions to see if the farces changing that if it's changing from being a bird via to being a mammal bars. at the moment, there's not a lot of evidence that it's actually making that changes. it needs to, to make that leap. obviously in the wake of the cove at 19 pounds, i make the world is very much on high alerts when it comes to the kinds of impacts pandemic can cause. what happens if indeed an outbreak does occur in this particular virus and its current form at least is a really nasty one. and so, you know, it is causing a lot of very,
12:36 am
very severe disease and a lot of the animals that and fix. so now think of who would maintain that level of what we call parents, or pathogenic city or nastiness if you like. yeah, it has the capacity to, to really cause havoc. and course, we can say that with any certainty that you know, if the sparse does change from being a chicken bias to being a human buyers and my world changed those properties as well. but in its current form, as it moved over to humans, you know, this, this, you know, has a capacity to be, to the far more impactful than cobra 19 loss. but as it absolutely no evidence of human to human contraction whatsoever, but nevertheless concerned that this has mutated in so much of that, but it can move from birds to mammals, as you said. that's right. so yeah, i think the jury still out a little bit in terms of the cambodian incident in terms of the father and
12:37 am
daughters to whether there was evidence of human to human transmission. if there was, it was very, very limited, but yet we know we know flu viruses. we know that they all stop their life off and as bird viruses at one stage and some of them successfully make that leap into being human viruses. you know, we know some of the molecular changes in the virus that will allow that to happen. and that's what scientists like herself doing now is monitoring these boxes for evidence that they are making that switch. you know, as i said earlier, you know, thankfully, right now there's not a whole lot of evidence that they, despite these, the number of mammal infections going up. in the event of this, of course, taking a turn for the worse, i mean how primed, how ready all governments around the world to respond. we've heard of course, some british health officials that they could deploy rapid advantage and tests if finds a merge of that ab, an influence begins spreading between people. i'm just wondering on what level of
12:38 am

12:47 am
it's relationship with a continent. nicholas hawk al jazeera, the car, senegal. now one of the largest climate change experiments on the planet is underway. leo state of minnesota. researchers have been simulating global warming to understand how it affects nature. john, hindrance reports deep in northern minnesota is snow covered chippewa national forest. there is a kind of time machine. stephen sebastian's job is to peer into the future. it really is a world class research facility for understanding the effects of what we expect to happen in the future. within the forest lies a plot of government land called the marcell, experimental forest, where the u. s. for service in oregon, national laboratories have built 10 silo like structures inside researchers raise the temperature from 0 to 9 degrees celsius to simulate different levels of global warming. half the chambers also add varying levels of carbon monoxide to mimic
12:48 am
expected future increases of the greenhouse gas from human activity. then they watch what happens. it's not encouraging. the trees are not doing as well as they're doing in the on woman closures. some of are actually dying from the conditions that are too harsh to harsh for those trees to continue to grow. that's not as bad for the trees. minnesota lies at the southern end of a peat built that stretches into the arctic its frozen cover trapping 12000 years and plant build ups into the glaciers of melted. p is this like spongy, awesome soil substance. that can be thousands of years old. slowly, slowly decomposing, or as we think about like climate change, basically storing carbon, storing that carbon is an important job. there's ground is covered in p plant material that goes down for meters. pete covers about 3 percent of the world's land surface, but it stores a 3rd to half of the soil carbon in the world. so as temperatures go up,
12:49 am
