5:48 am
stories. so i think this story shows you the personal misery of people waiting for hours and i was travelling on friday so i didn't —— saidi travelling on friday so i didn't —— said ijust missed it but there is theissue said ijust missed it but there is the issue of what does to the airways brand because you know, it brand is offered the world 's favourite airline is what this will do? it will have a financial impact because of the compensation but also the reputation impact, i mean, how is its brand going to suffer? how do you feel they have handled it because it is ok on one hand having a disaster, all companies do at various points but how do you sell the disaster to the public?|j various points but how do you sell the disaster to the public? i feel they haven't done that well. if they have got to be in their shoes, i mean from the consumer 's point of view they didn't have information and that is always the difficult thing but then they didn't have the ip systems to give them the information that it was like stuck i think the worst thing in these situations when people don't know what is happening and i think this is what happened here. and very
5:49 am
difficult. i don't think the staff knew either said it was a problem. it shows you how vulnerable we are to ip systems. this was unprecedented. a whole network were shut down. we haven't got to the bottom about why. and not only that, why there was no backup. we don't understand that. the restorers about how it was outsourced but nobody knows. all we know with the people are facing misery and ba has gone, actually a brand reputation, an issue to deal with. it's interesting that the telegraph is saying they have these claims from the trade unions, we spoke about them yesterday, about how outsourcing job cuts have caused this but also the claim here is that the airline is refusing offers of assistance from its own eyeteeth applied to resolve the problem. who knows! we don't know, do we? let's move on to the philippine star. this is a story that has been running for a long
5:50 am
time one way or another. about president duterte saying he would listen to congress because he wants to extend martial law in lindenow. it is was been a problem, hasn't it. —— mindanao. i rememberwhen marcos was there and it was an issue. i think duterte has to balance, there is obviously a security issue and there were people suffering and what did he do about it? his reaction is that he can come in and we will try and solve the issue. you then have people back in manila saying that is this the right process? should we be imposing martial law, it seems rather a heavy—duty weapon. imposing martial law, it seems rather a heavy-duty weapon. but it has an easy target, his enemy here is basically organisations which are vaguely associated with i. if your enemy is is, can you go wrong? you cannot, you listen to the various
5:51 am
stories like the ones we read about, people who have been asked to recite the koran and if they cannot they are shot, and you go down to the personal again and i think he's in a personal, difficult situation. what is angela merkel been saying? she isn't very happy! at least she is saying so, she is not happy with either the us or the saying so, she is not happy with eitherthe us orthe uk saying so, she is not happy with either the us or the uk and she us europeans need to stick together. i think she is... she is also on an election campaign, she is very strong, she doesn't, she wants to show i think her strength, she doesn't need the us, she doesn't need the uk. she is... she is quite grounded. she had an opportunity to have a photo taken with a beer and i don't know why politicians insist on the campaign trail of eating and drinking. it's quite good! she looks very much at ease, better than some other politicians that were taken eating. eating sandwiches is never good. it could've been worse. shall
5:52 am
we talk about the japan times. falls short of climate but gets tradewind? what do you make of that? i think the climate issue was always going to be difficult because i think that mrtrump to be difficult because i think that mr trump couldn't actually do a complete turnaround, so it was always going to be short on that but he has said that he will consider it and he hasn't fixed but he is going to say so i think we have to wait. what do you mean he hasn't decided yet? maybe he hasn't decided, maybe he has been open to other suggestions, who knows. i... we do know that there is a large proportion of the young people, they are very concerned about the environment, and maleny as well. maybe he has to change his position. —— melania. to what you think about
5:53 am
the picture, the body language, the sta nce the picture, the body language, the stance of those people, you can tell there is quite a difference. stance of those people, you can tell there is quite a differencelj stance of those people, you can tell there is quite a difference. i think it is interesting. you have... you have got the position of the league of the people trying to assert their power. leg. i have to say most of the men are like that. and then you have angela merkel who stands out not only in colour because she isn't wearing grey and she isn't growing tired but she also her hands in her centre, she has herfeet, her legs closed, she looks much more at ease than any of the other compatriots. it's interesting. let's move on. this is the us on course to raise interest rates again after a wage growth. basically the us economy doing well? is itjust the trump lump as they call it? or more than that? -- bump. it is doing well and
5:54 am
it will be interesting because where the us goes, everyone follows, so whether that will have an impact globally on interest rates... who knows. the economy seems to be doing well at this point. we are expecting at some point over the next month that we should see interest rates going up. i would say so. the last m, going up. i would say so. the last in, look at cannes. have you seen the square? i haven't, it apparently was not a front—runner, it is a satire. thank you forjoining us, michaela. that's all we have time for. see you in a while. buy. —— goodbye. this is the shape of things to come rather than what we saw for many
