us the this is focus on europe. i'm laura buffalo, a welcome to the show. britain's health care sector is in a state of crisis. millions of patients are on waiting lists with a publicly funded national health service or n h s. care workers are overwhelmed. the low wages and high stress levels have led to an exodus of professionals in the sector. many blame the former conservative administration policy experts say they failed to adequately fund the system. during their 14 years in power,
1:31 am
the new labor government has vowed to fix the n h s. but that could take years and 2 year old delilah needs health. now, her mother fears the delay will affect do i lose development? young. a lot of hassle. getting her daughter to eat as a test of patients for chloe kirby. sure to roll delilah usually splits everything out in time ever since she was born, delilah has avoided eating solid food. she doesn't particularly a, any food like as useful. she the, i need food. i'd say she eats a little bit all these chaise and you know, i mean this is how much is in that ball. so i offer, and that doesn't even get a, an in a dies. chloe's has tried everything as well, other toddlers, her age are long used to eating normally,
1:32 am
meals delilah will only drink from the bottle. her mother suspects eating disorder linked to autism, but she's not in your family. doctors haven't been able to help. and chloe's been waiting 6 months for an appointment with a specialist. every single thoughts, thoughts, professional though i say that a lot, you know, i've never come across the case of this. so you not, i don't really know what to do. so then it's not. it was it so they now should be same last question is within a certain amount of time because there's none of them come across. it tells me it's not unique or it's out there that it's not just going to resolve itself. over 6000000 british patients have been waiting months or even years for an appointment with a specialist. for years, the former conservative government spent less on the health care system than comparable european countries. that was one of the big issues in the election at the beginning of july, this year. andrew myers and as an emergency doctor,
1:33 am
he says the situation many hospitals reach breaking point long ago. so emergency care is awful for clinicians for patients. we're seeing patients that have to sit in our waiting room stuff to sit in the carters waiting for care of people that are dying on the back services waiting to be brought in, say any dying in inside a or any departments? i fortunately work it, it was a quite a good hospital where we don't see a lot of that. but just knowing that that exist in so many different places and somebody from hospitals across this country is, is just, it's devastating doctors and nurses are leaving around 100000 posts in england are unfilled. the professionals are attracted to careers abroad with better pay in working conditions. many of those who stay can't cope with the pressure and suffer physically and mentally. we're seeing record numbers of our colleagues having mental health crises, taking time off of work because of mental crises. and i've been to the memorial services of,
1:34 am
of colleagues who have killed themselves because their work is just frontier difficult and they, they took too much of that. i'm and that's, that's also to do with. 6 doctors and nurses going straight to poor working conditions, which then leads to even worse patient care. labor government has promised more money, shorter waiting times, and new stuff for the health care sector. that's urgently needed, says meyerson, we need to fill the holes. that was, that was left by the less of the mass protest and calls for quotas. residents on the spanish islands may orca are flushing back against over tourism calls for crowd controls are also happening. other european nations travel is booming after the pandemic. but for residents and tourism hotspots, there's little cause for celebration, housing shortages, a soaring rent prices and pollution are fueling ad t tourism sentiment. spain is also trying to climb down on rowdy behavior in places
1:35 am
like fly, a diploma. authorities have bound the public consumption of alcohol in certain areas. still, some locals feel that not enough is being done to address the problem. a it's party time in my orca. tens of thousands of tourists, mostly germans, are letting their hair down on the fly, a diploma. much to the annoyance of neighbors like luis, as we'll call him to keep him anonymous. he lived here for 25 years. i can be of the people tourism is totally changed to the more it's just one big drinking spree. so we feel powerless with my have to sleep with earplugs because it's so loud i pulled on which the did blank for the night out is in plain sight, empty bottles, tens, despite the regional governments cracked down on several of the islands party zones, fly a diploma has banded drinking on the street or the beach with fines ranging up to 1500 zeroes. and shops that sell alcohol must close at 9 30
1:36 am
pm. even card on the in the go pest quote, are fighting for the new rules to be enforced. they live in the party zone and have joined a neighborhood association to deal with it. the goal, this place is like a theme park. when the tourists are out on the town, they come lurching through the neighborhood this fall down for a while. you're in a, in the street all the while. everyone does know assuming the daughter. yeah. here's the problem. i, the government test, the started kind of lies in the shop. the don't stick to the sales hours, or the idea is that right? that's the, that's an example of the crap we'd have to put up with have germans in my family, myself, and i'm ashamed of this behavior. and that it, if i forget the,
1:37 am
the party starts in broad daylight to the tourist. it's pre drinking at the beach. even though they've heard about the alcohol being or so for us it's just a classic drinking holiday. it's. it's a shame not being allowed to drink on the beach. right now saw the phones. so it was. 7 let's buy some wine shafts on the beach somewhere, drink, but we're not actually allowed to do that. and then we just bought some bottles and told them to sell it. and you said, what's them? good. i still see people consuming a lot of alcohol here and personally, i don't see much of a police presence just yet, so then it's on the screen with because i've just done this with them in the neighborhood. association is disappointed with the authorities. the noise from the party tourist isn't limited to the st. fiesta continues on hotel balcony and in the apartment blocks, because more and more flats are being rented out to tourist formula, which almost, we've been hearing that the problems being dealt with for years now. the problem remains and nobody really wants to do anything because the tourism brings in money
1:38 am
because we made several requests in writing and by phone to the regional government of the bali arctic islands of which my york is the largest. but we weren't given an interview nor any information. the beatrice, chico, danny, runs a german restaurant. she's lived on my york up for 50 years. now. she's a scene of the behavior of many tourists and sense of the change in the atmosphere between foreigners and local. i know they used to feel like a 4 and a half a now over the last few years, a really all 3 to like a 4 and the what actually speaking how they found it. well, i've blown tire, so i must be a tourist now. so does many hotel operators are worried to the chairman of the local hotel association. pedro many has been fighting for years to increase hotel quality and with prices. they're also trying to deter party
1:39 am
taurus by imposing a minimum length of stay. you know. so that's just us as for the source, but only use it for it, so to attract respectable tourists are not enough that i think you have to sensitize people in their country of origin. and one thing that they should comment enjoy the benefits that we share with this stuff and not just claim it for themselves. so she and then we all have to treat it with parent and look at with that. and the local population mean, well start spinning out if something isn't done, see the waste no longer wants to put up with the noise. is equal those to see if it stays like this or gets worse. i need a plan b or i'll have to move away with them. but again, i've already thought about moving into my mother's flag on me. that's how the model is more residents follow his example, the party zone apply a diploma will soon be completely in the hands of taurus. it's the

1:50 am
a unique way of catching them. one that's been passed down for generations. but hank fears it's just a matter of time before his days, as a fisher are over. there aren't plenty of fish in the sea anymore. and fewer anchovies are arriving from hanks boat. the. we're on the water with the last and she'll be fisher in the netherlands. tank fund silks, fishes, the eastern shields, a waldorf estuary using an ancient technique. it's a unique method that's been around since the 17th century. he is what's called a we're fisher from silt uses a huge wooden structure that he built himself to trap the anchovies. the, this is called weird fishing home to store some of these. these polls move with the winds in waves, and the current drives the fishing,

1:52 am
but hardly any since 2019 this year is the same and it could be his less if we quit, it will still be in the we're finishing the like the of the whole of the trade is in danger of dying out over here. we have cost anything for years. we don't earn any money from we're facing any more of a month to them and we'll have to give it up to. it's kind of sad. it's not quite clear why the anchovies have disappeared. dot researchers suspect climate change and rising c temperatures. but the funds sold family suspects, the construction of a large wind farm nearby has permanently disrupted the local eco system. working with a foundation funds so now invites tourists to earn some extra money and show office spar sketch. there are no marketable anchovies in it's each move on so they
