crossing procedures in place the truckers face long lines slowing deliveries or will traffic flow smoothly there are already concerns on both sides. with the clock ticking down on 2020 and a new year approaching this is what britain's future with the european union will play out the new pit stop at the euro tunnel a brand new facility where trucks are processed with paperwork no driver has seen in decades midnight prada historic moment not least for the 1st driver to cross here. to be 1st. not only for new and. you know for the. ok. it all seemed like a logistical nightmare the weeks before bricks it had seen thousands of trucks strained in lines extending for miles many rerouted to

a local airfield their future unclear london brussels reached a final trade agreement only days before the new year meanwhile tunnel operators were doing their best to get their act together. the 1st truck passed through as expected just after midnight the teams were there systems are ready so there you go a few minutes of waiting at the stop we give a small gift to the 1st driver who went through so it's a very calm atmosphere everything's ready the teams are active everything's going well tonight we do. well sort of it seems not everyone was ready for the change of pace and the 1st shuttle for the tunnel made it to call a on the french side of the channel with only 17 trucks on board that's half the usual capacity. or ride for more of this i have my colleague rob watts here in

studio rob good morning so it's been hours since we've had this customs border customs forcibly arise between the u.k. and the e.u. what can we say is there chaos or is that space we're going slow at this point well just a few hours since big ben told 11 o'clock instead of its usual midnight and let's face it not a lot has happened and it's new year's eve it's very new year's day very early in the u.k. not a lot of business going on we have had the 1st trucks experiencing these customs checks they have actually taken effect the 1st rocket was a 62 year old remaining in code. and he was a callaway he got waved through by the matter of count a after having a barcode scanned and it all went very smoothly he said that he thought it was minutes hours how long that seconds saying you know the as i was just saying this is not normal traffic and it's not going to be until next. week because we've also got the weekend coming up so the true impact of these new checks is only going to become apparent when we get through to next week and the amount of paperwork that

there's going to be is significant in the rotorua holi just i.c.i. action which represents british truck drivers says $220000000.00 extra bits of paperwork and have to fill it in this year because of these new checks and people who have been trading seamlessly across the e.u. u.k. border up until now off for the very 1st time facing this neighborhood yeah absolutely and there is almost certainly going to be some teething problems ok so down the road these are these guys are all taking goods to businesses what does this mean for businesses on both sides of the border if there are backups well we know already there can be great problems for businesses i mean we experience that to some extent just last week when the french closed order of the coronavirus the u.k. strains the calling it we saw long lines thousands upon thousands of lorries queuing . and you know we were so good standing up late. you know there were some manufacturing gonaives ations that work on this just in time basis that means that

they need pots for example for cars to arrive right now because it holds up everything else they don't and they're facing possible delays but they have been working to try and mitigate that's already by buying an extra start there extra deliveries for a lot of companies yesterday to avoid these changes and there are going to be extra freight flights it cetera so the full extent of this change will become apparent next week all right rob wants to be business thanks for joining us phil it's not just border crossings that have changed with ukase departure fishermen on both sides of the english channel face new quotas for their catch starting on new year's day and they're having to learn the new rules quickly. captain fritz flint is in cook's hoben getting ready for the 1st catch since the brakes a transition period ended his ship is one of the most modern to. sale the north sea captain and crew are relieved the deal is done at least now they know the ground rules. thinkers crossed it all works out otherwise we'd all be out of a job for

a while it's not good when they say they can't reach an agreement and we've already been laid up for 2 months the norwegians kicked us out too it's not nice we're waiting with bated breath we've got families to think about. a few meters away fins boss caught on a schmidt pours over the new deal he's been at it for hours. told it's keeping me busy as opposed to. while schmidt reads flint and his crew give the boat a once over. they're ready to go. but the deal means massive cuts in british waters for cook to fish germany's last dedicated fishing fleet that's. just skimmed through the parts about cotton polic will have 20 percent less catch that means we need 2 boats fewer in the next 5 years sense which is why i fought so you video and listen for. on the british side small scale fishermen on the english

channel are afraid they won't benefit from the deal with the e.u. but in scotland the situation is quite different that's where most of the fish are caught by large vessels anyway and that's where the british profit the most from the quota increase castoff in cook soften the e.u. this makes its way through the north sea on course for norwegian waters at least this catch is guaranteed but the ball still doesn't know what the new year will bring does it have enough people on january 1st we don't know who's allowed in norwegian waters norway said as long as the u.k. and e.u. haven't reached an agreement no one's allowed in. the last days of 2020 were turbulent ones for a fisherman around the north sea and despite the breaks a deal there's no promise that the waters will be any calmer for europe's fishermen in 2021. stay with global trade

a global shortage of shipping containers is threatening supply chains and driving up container prices which have tripled in some parts and that in turn is threatening to undermine recovery from the pandemic. as one of the largest traders ever to steer its way into hamburg harbor on route between asia and europe it can transport. 20000 containers but at the moment this is shortage of shipping containers worldwide the coronavirus pandemic has thrown the global rotation of containers into disarray. at the same time china's export economy is running at full speed again pushing maritime shipping to the limit. the price of a container from the far east to europe has almost tripled in recent months about announcer for shipping companies but german transport company lloyd has come under

fire for the high prices. today it is very clear that there is more demand than there is supply and it of course results in higher prices at the moment but we should not forget that shipping has been making losses for a very long time and we have harbored lot for example will probably our cost of capital for the 1st time in 10 years. high demand in the u.s. makes problems worse for european importers routes between asia and the west coast of the us a more lucrative for shipping companies so more ships are sent on those trips german companies could lose out in the global competition for skiers freight capacity. that we're criticizing the fact that what happens here is upsetting entire supply chains in europe current supply chains can't even meet the current demand and we're running the risk that the economy is recovering after the

pandemic is in extreme danger chuffed not cool or no extreme if you notice. it affects consumers too many products manufactured in asia could become more expensive or unavailable for weeks in case of bikes especially even retailers are already feeling the strain of overstretched supply chains. you still don't have any delivery dates from one of our main suppliers they only see 2nd or 3rd quarter that affects us wish talk to them about their reasons it seems they're not getting parts delivered and can't assemble their bikes can you get a human one. with no end to the supply crisis in sight lloyd has its entire fleet in operation and free cargo space remains a hot commodity germany's largest shipping company is predicting even higher container prices giving them even larger profits and 2020 of around

2700000000 euros. to markets now and the question what's in store for 2021 our financial correspondent frank. takes a look at whether vaccines will indeed drive a worldwide economic recovery. if the year 2020 was all about the coronavirus and lockdowns this year promises to be about vaccines and a return to normalcy the pharma industry created several vaccines in record time it's about getting those shots into the arms of people all around the world global markets impressive rallies last year despite the pandemic wreaking havoc vaccine breakthrough suggest market participants could ignore the immediate pains and look forward to a swift post pandemic recovery the jury is still out on how global stock markets will fare this year some experts say that the markets have already factored in a vaccine ledger coverage others say there is still

a lot of steam left however there is little doubt when it comes to shares in travel and tourism companies airline stocks took a battering last year as a pandemic brought international travel to a virtual halt they could be ready for takeoff once restrictions are lifted and then there is the biden factor the incoming u.s. president is seen as less combative and more predictable than president trump and that would be a big relief for global markets which are still reeling from trans trade wars and that means global trade is likely to continue its impressive post pandemic recovery last year saw a 9 percent slump but the w.t. who expects global good street to write 7 percent in 2021 that bodes well for germany's export reliant economy the global recovery has so far been well supported by government cash and ultra cheap loans from central banks any premature tightening there could spell doom for markets and the mutating wireless may yet

to sweeten food and drinks it's also a well known home remedy against symptoms of the common cold like a sore throat or a cut the honey of beekeeper has some is known yawned his home on the turkish black sea coast because it's supposed to have special powers and here's a warning this honey can mess with your head. hassan couture does mother suffers from high blood pressure making her an ideal test subject it's time for him to measure it again but his son tutu auto claims to have found just the right medicine for it a spoonful of this honey. he tells his daughter to eat a spoonful to he's convinced this honey boosts the human immune system. it's just such a small amount of only lower blood pressure a little bit more would have a bigger effect but if you don't try much of it you can fall into

a coma. a lot as honey is that this is healing properties and more it can also have an intoxicating effect hence the name. turkish for mad honey could do what it takes orders for it from all across turkey and sometimes even from abroad but his bees produce this honey extremely sparingly. just from a lot of the dark in the center his chest not a loss of money you don't need a light heart or in the eyesight is my honey. this honey has gained a sort of school of wide fame partly because of the sherlock holmes movie adaptations or similar trajectory it's known locally as what's wrong with glass to much for me to see. they could do a lot of family lives in the wild landscape of turkeys black sea coast every day they drive up into the mountains to check on their beehives the medicinal or intoxicating effects their honey can have on people can be traced to the flowers of the pontiff or the dendreon it thrives in this area it's flowers and leaves contain

substances that can have toxic effects when consumed. if someone eats too much of it they can start to see black and stagger around. their head and ears get hot and their pulse slows down or. in fact the emergency room of the nearest provincial ha. spittal regularly treats victims of mad honey. good she's good with a a pub you talk to diva culebra cut some of them start seeing double i can cause heart attacks or even cardiac arrest in that but in most cases of telling you just monitor the patients for 24 hours and then send them home you know once the post is stabilized. love isn't a political jab at the video. yet the honey is not prohibited beekeeper his son treat a lot of that naturally into sizes gets beneficial qualities he's willing to climb

to the treetops complicit with it the only place the highs are safe in the region spares around 16 years ago he surprised a bear raiding his hives and almost didn't survive the encounter so it was out of here attacked me right away. we were close to a steep slope and both rolled about 20 meters down into a creek. there we started fighting each other. i tried to keep him at a distance with my hand in his mouth you see here the scars from. forgot i actually are you but the bear was quite. drunk for money eventually he let go of me. local people can vouch for the story they've nicknamed. the bear wrestler. back to the bees and the alleged healing effects of the mad honey 10 minutes later to want to checks his mother's blood

pressure again he finds that it's dropped another percentage point the honey seems to be working but now his daughter isn't feeling well. if that i feel about my head. who can i just want to sleep. the sun already has iran. for tree at the ready to counter the side if. he finishes up the next. part of the message to his. 1000 pandemic was without a doubt the dominating topic of 2020 millions of lives have been massively affected by the coronavirus people have lost their jobs their health their loved ones 10 year old lorenzo knows all too well how the virus can change a life instantly he lives in a belgian town that was the cleared

a hot spot back in march and 1 of the 1st people to die from the virus was lorenzo's grandfather his death left a young boy deeply scarred. before corona didn't know loneliness now he does every day i sleep here. and think i missed something. here. and it's just not right with the 10 year old misses his grandfather luke they were inseparable grampa was the best you know pretty happy yeah i was happy lorenzo lived with his grandparents for years and they took him everywhere luke was always the one to pick lorenzo up at school but when his grandfather got kovi 1000 in march and became the 1st known victim of the virus in their hometown of st truman lorenzo was left

confused and angry. i if corona wasn't here i'm. nothing of this would have happened his grandmother janine is still pained to recall how difficult it was to explain to lorenzo luke wasn't coming home from the hospital. he was so. good and it. was janine had to deal with her own grief her daughter's and her grandsons lorenzo was troubled he'd never gotten to say goodbye these were grasses and those are all the names of. people that want to see you again. but then a chance arose for lorenzo to say farewell when his city's mayor decided to create a memorial in a local park around the theme of the flower forget me not. them assess from the

beginning i want. from a little child who lost his grandfather of grandmother the mayor asked lorenzo if he would like to speak at the dedication he declined because i fought the were i gonna laugh at me. well but. i don't know. i was just thinking something. that i said that. that when i said something about my grandpa i was going to cry was a little free so. maybe you can do it for grandpa. oh yes i will do that for him so. at the ceremony with his mother nellie beside him lorenzo poured out his heart and touched everyone else's evil. your grandpa i miss you very much i am mad about corona mad about what happened

you were best and always are going to be the best investment and. when you were standing up there and people were listening to hear what you think they were thinking. he's a brave boy. and no longer he realized and angry boy i was happy did i get it that i. rode el out. he was happy. everyone was. grandpa. and in the spring in this corner of the park where lorenzo throughout his sadness will be filled with little blue flowers each blossom a promise to those who are gone we won't forget you.

spain is also struggling with the effects of the pandemic the country's economy has taken a massive hit given that it highly depends on tourism in cities like barcelona and many hotels bars and restaurants remain closed the economic decline also means that more and more people don't have enough money to pay their rent and that's why bailiff's like. tina's are working around the clock his job of carrying out evictions can be both emotionally taxing and dangerous really he's a bearer of bad news. we have a court warrant will you open up. as works in barcelona as last area his job is to even people the coronavirus pandemic is a busy time for him more and more people slip into poverty and can no longer pay

their rent we have a court ruling you have to leave today. why weren't we told. leif i'm here now you must have been given plenty of notice if you go for my father's i know. the owner of the apartment wants them out and he has the law on his side. i want the apartments back. for my son. here. the locks are changed straight away courts are cracking down especially on behalf of private owners when apartments belong to banks or companies decisions can take longer. our. landlord has the final say if he's willing to give them another 2 days then that's what happens if he wants them out today they're out it's up to him . as you go through. this department was owned by a bank it would be one thing. when the owner is someone who works for decades to

buy property it's different. i have no sympathy for them. spain's housing problem is nothing new high rents low incomes during the financial crisis several years ago many people couldn't pay their mortgages and many homes were repulsed by banks now the pandemic has ushered in the next crisis. people who were struggling before are now at rock bottom they had precarious work contracts and now they've lost their jobs so they stop paying their rent. the chronic housing crisis is on full display at his next appointment the building belongs to a bank it's now being occupied illegally palko calls for assistance are sort of police backup illegal occupants aren't opening the door. we have been

threatened with knives someone turned on the gas to try and cause an explosion or article it can get dangerous that's when we call in the police officer. poco knows a lot of the police officers well. how's it going the bad guy again. the police go in ahead to check the situation. one of the squatters is still there he's sick the others have fled to the. setup of living like this of course the father the mother lost everything. so presumably i think i'm on the side of justice there's always someone who gets the short end of the stick a lot but that's the way it is after all a judge has made

a ruling that's the way the law is i don't have a guilty conscience or more good. this squad who won't leave so he's taken away. those he's a lot of misery in his job which makes him even more aware of how lucky he is the 52 year old lives with his partner in their own apartment and he is mortgage free. a few streets away he's called on 2 of the day young woman from the dominican republic who gave birth just 2 weeks ago. i'm not doing well where am i supposed to take my child. home on earth and a group of activists are here to support her. can do is try to give her more time everything depends on the landlord the woman's last hope is a phone conversation with him. her through me you know the welfare system doesn't function right now. the only way to get another apartment would be. barbequed

yourself from the mayor's office if you. want the landlord agrees to let the woman stay another 6 weeks but after that she has to go situations like these still upset even after 12 years in the job. there have been many occasions when i've had to grit my teeth and get on with it if it were up to me i'd cave in on humanitarian grounds. but when you've been told you're being evicted 4 times and you haven't looked for a new home at some point you have to draw a line through.
