6:01 pm
their anger over the nation's worse trained disaster. and i'm jobs are awful us and others where angry protesters say, but fixing the antiquated greek railway system should be the government. number one priority. the southern hemisphere is longest ever tropical cycling, batters mozambique again after tens of thousands of people elect stranded protests in italy. i was silent, seekers drowning as 8 groups say a government crackdown is obstructing rescue missions and with a champagne carpet and a crisis team, the count on begins for hollywood. biggest night. it's the oscars and sport. carlos al cortes is on track to return to the top. the world tennis rankings, the spanish teenager is amy to win the indian wealth had off for the 1st time. ah,
6:02 pm
welcome to the news that we begin in greece, where thousands of people are holding another day of antique government protests. this was a scene in athens, where there's anger over the nation's worst royal disaster. last month, 57 people were killed, and demonstrators want the government to conduct a thorough investigation. a modernize greece is crumbling railway johnson populace says live for us in athens. it's been a tough day for everybody, certainly in greece watching these demonstrations unfold. john, i mean people still very angry over this crash and the response is evident. yes, i mean the demonstrations that we see on the streets are largely organized by the communist party on the left wing opposition. but reading the new polls out today, there is certainly widespread anger against the government. this government needed
6:03 pm
38 percent of the popular vote. if it was going to have a 2nd term as a single policy government. now the ruling conservatives were polling at about 33 percent before this rel, accident after it. they've gone down to just below 30 percent, which means it's going to be very difficult for them between now and early july at the absolute latest. when an election has to take place to form that single party government, they are going to have to form a coalition government. and they're also going to have to show that they are acting genuinely, not only to investigate the causes of this crash, but also the longer term reasons why atlantic railways were non safe. so these protests that we're seeing, i think the tip of the iceberg of public anger against the ruling, new democracy. conservatives, i think people also realize that the role responsibilities going back to previous
6:04 pm
governance to the left doing seat is a government that fell from power in 2019 as well. because the safety contract has been in play since about 2000 and successive governments have been unable to fulfill it to assign private contractors to fulfill it. even though the technology has been there. and the money has been there, a lot of it has come from the european union. people want to know why greek railways work consistently unsafe people. suspicion falls on political corruption on that money being embezzled on people, not agreeing on who should have the contract because there are many people lobbying for it and so on. but these, these are reasons that reflect poorly on the political system as a whole. and then of course, john, you know, i mean, it's trains to day. and as you say in the past, there have been issues such as the cost of living or the change in pensions, or migration. and people come out to onto the streets in syntax. moscow,
6:05 pm
we've seen it time and time again. and so where does the rail issue, you might say come in the packing order. you've talked about a general election later in the year. how soon will it be an issue that they either forget or, or not that concerned about? because these things do ebb and flow. don't they, in the political spectrum of greek politics? well indeed they do. but look, the problems that this government has faced the pandemic. for example, in 2020 the high energy costs that have led to high inflation in 2022. and these were problems that were imported from outside the country. the government simply had to manage them as best it could, and i think it did reasonably well. it had early locked down procedures. it had a very organized response to the pandemic. lots of new beds in intensive care units
6:06 pm
. last year, big handouts for to help people pay for their electricity bills and their gas bills . handouts that came 2nd only to germany's if you look at it as per capita spending in the european union. but this railway disaster is a problem completely made in greece. people see it as the result of political problems, corruption issues that are in damage to the greek political system and the political elite of the country. and this is why it is so depressing to the greeks that after so many years of recession, that followed the post 2008 global financial crisis after trying so hard to balance the budget, something that has been achieved, ah, and after the lessons of over spending and not managing public affairs very well
6:07 pm
have been so thoroughly learned by greek tax for his. it appears that they were not thoroughly learned by greek, the greek political class. i think this is what makes it such a, such a depressing problem for the greeks and a lot of that depression is being expressed as anger will continue to follow events with you in athens jones hopeless. thank you know, tropical cycling. freddy has a nice, powerful winds heavy rain and floods in mars. i'm beat for the 2nd time. at least 28 people have been killed and tens of thousands of homes have been damaged for the is the southern hemisphere is the longest lasting tropical cyclone on record. it started $35.00 days ago in the western pacific and has traveled more than 8000 kilometers, gathering strength over the indian ocean. it made landfill unmet jessica, as a tropical cycling, moved on to batter, mozambique grew again strength over the indian ocean. has hit by some beak once

there is a very limited effect on. ready it can, it can easily be controlled and then plus, she bought an insurance on top of that. so i think the chancellor, the bank of england isn't really that much from investors perspective. even as, as us we are very much. ready include to every single headline which is coming up in relation to actually be even now out of birthday party, a ha, my phone and i'm just constantly looking at the market. what the reaction is going to be and how we can achieve the minimum darmesh going into next week. so be black swamped events whenever they happen, they're bound to happen, but we cannot pinpoint the exact fallout from the particular events. right now. everything is very much related to tech. everything is very much related to start ups in that area. and as a gust said earlier on this program, this is not a housing crisis. this is a tech starter crisis. if there is that there is
6:42 pm
a impact, is going to be on a very small website. this is the biggest fear that in like in investors like ourselves, are more storied about. and i just want to make a correction that i'm actually chief investment officer for the capital markets like i trade a while back. so for mercy, fortune thing is the fear of insurance because you have something where the regulators will give you an issue in assurance that up to a certain limit, your capital is very much protect it. let me give you an example. as to what you know, we need to get through had a lot here because a lot of these startups weren't insured and that's the worry isn't that some of those startups that weren't ensured and not only in the u. s, but they are in the u. k. as well, surely, because it's only after the 2008 banking collapse, what protections were put in place for companies out startups to protect their assets. if something like this happened but it. ready there's no particular
6:43 pm
protection the only protection would be what we have been hearing over the weekends for v c's coming together and providing assurance. so basically throwing money behind a bad money, right? so just just not even calling the money or whatever the it thought that okay, would turn out to be a really great idea. now these be sees what we're hearing in america coming together and providing assurance to pay for the payrolls paying for their ongoing r and d expenditures and asking them to cut their expenses. i think that is the support that we owe, that we get from the government, but they chew, kick, government has it's problem of its own 4000000 mortgages. i get going to be renewed only in london and the interest rate you are talking about 6 and 7 percent and bank of england is under immense pressure to continue to increase interest rate, your time inflation. this particular part of the s b is the least worry for the
6:44 pm
bank of england or for the chancellor themselves because they, they have a massive problem on hand. and even with respect to the. okay, mr. let me just come in there, then let me just come in. i must ask them at the end of the day, you as you say, there are companies that maybe shouldn't have to worry too much about what's going on because the chancellor will look after them. but those very companies employ people, those very companies have a pay roll to honor if their accounts are frozen as of now, what are we expecting on to happen on monday to make sure that those very companies can allay the fears of their employees and pay them on time, because that will be the immediate worry for those that are you might say involved in these smaller companies and have a lot to lose you are absolutely right. so again, job loss in smaller sector thought is very much in focus right now. ok. but at the same time, they will be given some sort of a liquidity packages at 0 interest rate. so that is something that the chancellor
6:45 pm
can do. ok, we're giving you this liquidity package at a 0 percent interest rate. go and then use this money for the payroll for the most basic necessity, most important part of your businesses. so make sure more employees are not going to be out of a job and has going to have creat another domino effect in the housing market. because i set t as early as $4000000.00, which is due for renewal, which is going to be running from 1.5 percent interest rate, what they're paying now to 5 percent to 4 percent to 70 percent. these people being out of a job is going to create more chaos in the u. k. industry, the chancellor should extend those lines of credit had 0 percent interest rate, but they are not going to do that. that easy until they will see that yes, this storm is something that is going to head that you can market very, very adversely. and i don't think that is a situation with respect to the u. k. as i said to you earlier,
6:46 pm
the dominant fact is gonna be coming from the u. k side. the uncertainty, all that nervousness is going to be coming from dr. here. then these people will react. we shall see what happens when the market is that they will chance to say on monday for the moment they must have thanks for joining us from london. thanks. still had hear all the news out in sports under the big life also as i continue that, but to become champions of england once again. ah, the stents in his life is now home to home or serious families. if to some, some is a model for who has to find a way to provide for her children. her mother who lived in law he as well died into earthquakes. i was on free, is beyond glad. in my 27 years of life,
