this true story at the same time try to intimidate the other joined into it you who dared to touch that. says that the shoes i thank you for watching to give you news of markets are today on those hopes of a break the deal being finalized. business is up next. for its monarch. fantasy.

to see when the trade. secrets. starts december 25th. obvious. things are nearing their conclusion britain and the european union are reportedly on the costs of striking a proposed trade deal it would end a grueling long ago she ations over the e.u. u.k. relationship after britain left the bloc almost one year ago also coming up we take a look at the e.u. food exporters who are particularly anxious for both sides to strike a deal and online retail sales have been surging in the 10 demick so have to parcel

deliveries and we want to see what exactly goes. on for school welcome to the program a bumper delivery of pizza helped fuel. negotiators through a night of talks and now britain and the e.u. are close to agreeing to a post bragg's it trade deal according to multiple media sources an announcement could come as soon as this morning the pound leapt on the news as britain appears close to avoiding a damaging no deal brags that after 9 months of turbulent negotiations officials goes and talks that an agreement has been found on the main sticking points fair competition and fishing rights. meanwhile the u. food exporters all watching nervously as the braggs a deadline approaches this would be the time to rush through as much of their produce as they can to the u.k. right now that just isn't possible. several 1000

a trucks are backed up in dover and that number is growing they won't be home for christmas but they at least want to avoid new border checks and customs controls that will come at the end of the year at this food wholesaler in the netherlands they're also worried about the fast approaching end of your deadline december 31st coconuts citrus fruit asparagus all of this has to go to great britain as quickly as possible if the u.k. left of the brakes a transition period without a deal there'd definitely be delays in the movement of goods. over day. long of course it depends on the product you have stronger product and we could products but it. will lowered the price of the product. comes humor wants to consume. very 1st product. great britain is one of the most important markets for dutch fruit and vegetable traders last year

fruit worth 2000000000 euros went to the island and of course other industries across the e.u. are also facing a last minute panic. well we're not seeing wide small get as the negotiations continue let's take a look at what's being discussed with yacc chief economist germany's clematis bank as always good to see you are from all indications that you have is this going to be a good deal. yes i think it's a good deed insofar as a game of easy get the free trade that means that companies on both sides will be the allowed to continue to make business with each other and this is by definition going to of course it would be better if the u.k. was in the european union the lesser traders are putting in only one of you this is . now one of the final sticking points has been how much access the fisherman will have to u.k.

waters starting next year why is that such a major issue well at least this is comping justified from the can only point of view because the fishing industry in the case for example makes all the wealth over one place at of g.d.p. and the same is true for frasse that means the east this industry has a lot of political voice a lot of political influence and this is the only reason by forming only part of it it makes no sense to discuss the hours about this smaller industry now they have a contest the topic was the one of fair competition the so-called level playing field what was the problem here. well the car is if you pre-treat is certain then the goods and services are allow to to flow freely between the european union and the u.k.

by only uniquely up the standards common standards as far as product quality for example is concerned and this is based sunsets but i'm quite confident that if i'd said there because you couldn't you beauty they had been in a common market with the with our own product standards and therefore that even if we change in order to come to india and europe with an agreement in place what will future trade between britain and the e.u. look like what i think it would look like a very well because the both sides can continue to trade with each other and i am very optimistic that with the free trade agreement in trade relationship the economy is already very nicely as a training relationship between citizen and you in your union would be the way that

you can do i am optimistic as long as is crazy to do it all right you are came our comments by chief economist as always thank you for talking to us through banking. mayer's an idea the german government is considering a parcel charge for every online retail sale it's intended to support brick and mortar retailers around the country after all since the start of the pandemic e-commerce sales have been surging which means the amount of parcels that delivery workers have to transport has more than doubled we want to see what exactly that looks like. for a parcel delivery driver joachim the day starts early because it's his van and a delivery base in south berlin just like several 100 of his colleagues every day then they set out to deliver their packages and parcels to customers in the german capital the 55 year old says it's always crazy a few weeks before christmas but since the coronavirus pandemic there's been
