1:34 pm
of colleagues who have killed themselves because their work is just far too difficult. and they, they took too much for them or, and that's, that's also to do with the doctors and nurses going straight due to poor working conditions, which then leads to even worse patient care. the new 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. we need more hospital beds within the inner chest . we lost 25000. the last decade we need, we need to stop the steps. hemorrhage. we need to stop losing $20000.00 doctors every year for to 1000 nurses. and we need to solve social care prices, because if we take a patients out of hospitals, we're wasting billions there. and then we're providing terrible care for about 10 a month. chloe kirby sir agrees. there's no way things can stay as they are while she's worried about her daughter's future. the so the to the white in this for the
1:35 pm
child is just wrong. it's not like it's a routine appointment like, oh, you know, it's just, this is the, is, it's a serious thing. what she's going to be 5, what she's going to be putting in school because she can only have formula so far, all her mother's efforts to shorten this long wait have been anything the a mass protests and calls for quotas residence on the spanish islands may orca are fighting 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, soaring rent, prices and pollution are fueling ad t tours and sentiment. spain is also trying to climb down on rowdy behavior in
1:36 pm
places 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. it's party time in my orca. tens of thousands of tours, 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 law. it's just one big drinking spree and so we feel powerless with me. i have to sleep with earplugs because it's so loud. i pulled the blame for the night out as in plain sight, empty bottles tends to spice isn't a good is the that's an example of the crap we have to put up with. i have germans in my family myself, and i'm ashamed of this behavior. and that it,
1:37 pm
if i forget the, the party starts in broad daylight to the tourist. it's pre drinking at the beach, even though they've heard about the alcohol be in the room for us. it's just a classic drinking holiday. it's a shame not being allowed to drink on the beach. right now. saw the phones. so it was, yeah, let's buy some wine shafts on the beach somewhere. drink. but we're not actually allowed to do that stuff. 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 the initial on the screen with become i've just done this with the neighborhood association is disappointed with the authorities. the noise from the party tourist isn't limited to the street. the fiesta continues on hotel balcony. and in the apartment blocks, because more and more flats are being rented out to tourist i formula, which almost, we've been hearing that the problems being dealt with for years now the problem

1:39 pm
to increase hotel quality and with it prices, they're also trying to deter party taurus by imposing a minimum length of stay. you know. so that's just the support source, i only use it for it, so to attract respectable interests 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 as she. and then we all have to treat it with parent and look at with that. and the local population mean, well start finding 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 be 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 parties and apply

1:42 pm
slack he would come within a 100 meters of their land. a few years ago, mom, she low spot of the 1st exploratory drill holes nearby. so they refused to sell their land and hope other local residents won't either. a mine would change everything here. ma'am, i see what the, what do you think would be and there wouldn't be no more life here for us. right underneath the plan mind on our bountiful, underground spring, so that keep our village and yeah you and many neighboring villages supply with water with so you know, because over me score the lithium mind controversy has reached most needs to the regions biggest city, a protest billboard, on the roadside says no to the mine. yes to life. we attend to a runs and info center in town, but nobody seems to want to talk openly about it. so many here are afraid the mining operation might contaminate the water supply or the
1:43 pm
drain, a river. the real 10 toes offices in serbia is capital build rate manager murray. auntie bobby is doing what you can to make sure. lithium mining can begin as soon as possible the you and in particular, germany and it's car manufacturers are keenly interested in the lithium from the younger valley, $650.00 on promotional video to fix the plan mine as a clean and modern showcase project ever wherever you can investments of 2 and a half 1000000000 euros, the mining underground. ok, and enough lithium for 1000000 electric cars and thousands of well paid jobs. can the opponents are spreading false information according to bobby, to everyone that we encourage everyone to actually learn about the fact and not the extra and the trust, everything that everyone says about the project. as to our communication, i have to say we could have communicated better in a more layman's terms,
1:44 pm
to be very honest, we are a technical company, so we communicate in technical terms. back to maria island pitch for personal reason for protecting against the lithium mine, so persistently is right here on our property or families cemetery. my great grandfather is in great grandfather's, they themselves, these lines even in the car this times of their lives. so why would i do this now? you know, i'm the 3rd thing, generation of the owner of, of this one. so we cannot said that the, simply not the question come to discuss that. it's a no, no means no. maria is determined to preserve what she can of her ancestors legacy. a facing our own mortality is a subject that's too overwhelming for many to look death in the eye and take stock of one's life requires courage. and at times
