jamie's italian all of these chains. carluccio. they have a whole bunch of them listed here but the fact is that figures compiled for the evening standard colliers international forecasts that the blood bath and the retail on restaurant sectors will leave at least six point two million square feet in the u.k. vacant this year of that six hundred thirty thousand square feet isn't london of the property agent examined statistics from the local data company and go deportable it looked at stores which have closed either because firms have collapsed or restructured using a company voluntary arrangement a move which allows businesses to quit stores or seek rent cuts so they are using the c.v.s. as they're called so what is it called company voluntary agreement and they're able to get out of all of these leases and landlords are left holding the bill on these overpriced properties and a shrinking economy and with huge business rates on the small companies that the

u.k. government is no longer going to be able to collect it all for except the site is being independent it defies one hundred years of integration into europe it's absurd i understand that everyone likes to be independent but it's never ever ever going to happen in any meaningful sense of the kingdom it's just ever going to happen of course these new rules came out in the e.u. regarding privacy for example and all these tech companies had to change everything and i just noticed that over the weekend because we've lived in the united kingdom for so long i have had dozens and dozens and dozens of e-mails from all these british companies saying due to new european privacy directives here's our new policy on privacy so it's like there are all these just online about people throwing their computers out the window because of this hassle but nevertheless they're having to abide by these european regulations anyway in order to stay part of that. you're the customs union better remember the new passports of the new

a pleasure being with you but it's great to have you back on the show it you know one of those guests that we've had going back to the early days of big oil and who have really been part of the growth of this industry and it's a bit so is that i guess the largest. crypt alembic going exchange in latin america that's right we just surpassed half a million users well it's phenomenal growth and it shows that this coin bitcoin is had really a profound impact on the global economy and the lives of millions of people all over the world who now understand what it's all about now apparently our show kaiser report you know was responsible for installing a new leader in mexico that's what the press in mexico is saying this is. obrador is the result of max kaiser how will this impact the currency markets in mexico and i guess bits oh yeah well right now there has been some fluctuation in the exchange rate we are in the higher and the highest rate that we've seen in recent years

there's a lot of bullets in the dim certainty. according to surveys he is the one heading to the president of mexico but there's still some over a month couple months before the elections will take place but it looks like after it's his third try trying to be the mexican president and it looks like it's probable that he's going to become into power and much push by keiser report. but said other words you don't really have a scenario of impacting your business materially one way or another but let me ask you this. the mexican peso has tumbled by double digits as had all the other emerging market currencies as the u.s. dollar has soared in value and how does this impact your business yes there are some people that like to invest stored by u.s.

dollars for example where an election is coming before ninety ninety four each six years that mexico elections take place every six years the used to be a huge devaluation and inflation every six years when outgoing and incoming new president came in so there's people who would like to save in and us always and there are some people that also because of the ability to that they're having their like they have one to cover future payments in u.s. dollars or cover up and well because it is a way of doing this encrypt their currencies but also as we know it's a way to moving money in and out of the for in markets right and to get back to the political scene a for a moment obrador as a leftist and what this in your view. the domestic economy does it need a bit of a lefty to come in and take away some of the excesses one finds when the right is

in power for a long time or is it what he of you yeah so he's viewed as the most leftists option but what is funny is that because he has had this presidential run being so successful with with leftists and protective polls he sees the other candidates are also doing the same type of folly so you in the ones perceive a far right are doing also those kinds of policies so he's move the needle of discourse and so the going forward the policies would be in place on the regulatory front how might they impact tripped up because every country is down evolving regulatory framework for crept out something trades are open they try to attract tripped up as a some countries are. repel ng the crypt of business mexico to me given they history the banking system would benefit hugely from adding a more crypto based currency and better relations with a tripped out as just a what would be to me

a left wing issue the problem is that there have been you know some bad actors in the banking sector that have benefited the richest of the rich so your view on that you know unfortunately as you say makes us have one of the biggest cases of money laundering in the financial system we have one of the largest unfortunate cases which is b.c. for example and reg no what happened in the other side on the fin thickset is that they just passed authentic law in mexico's the beginning of the year so right now all the physic industries being regulated and there are there are no some clear rules including scrip the currency exchanges which is good because no you know how you you can interact with regulate the players for example stockbrokers banks different regulated and yes and there is some clarity with whom do we have to work with in order to get for example more crypt occurrences into the exchange are

we going to react if in different financial services and how are we going to interconnect with the mexico financial system it was like well with so i would say before us you're right so you're in a bit of an island an unregulated island which was has a certain appeal as a counterpoint to the banking system that was perceived as being run in an inefficient way or by a lot of bad apples us some use that term but what you're saying is that to grow the ecosystem at this point to have some regulations that apply to everyone in the space to give his interoperability between you as the crypto guy and everybody else out there the banking insurance all the other financial products out that. to that extent that regulation is a net plus and also it's a way that you've seen it all over the world and in other countries has come to. give more and more than they now make economy and also bringing new players there

probably are for example the own bank there are people there who have access to credit or people that do not have access to financial services so that is also an advantage of that we have another fix have reaching out to those people bringing into this economy and financial services of they wouldn't have access normally so we make grow and develop right so you know in the early days of kept out you know they weren't on the street was always this exchange got hacked that exchange got hacked but of course the script was dominated by the best engineers and minds in the world that have gravitated toward this space the incidence of these access been reduced dramatically meanwhile in the legacy banking system not so much protection against attack so there's been a major hack a mexican banks tell us about it as if impacts our business if it all yes there had been something lace in transfers there were some rumors. banking's banking

system going to banks code hack there isn't much information flowing but now there is some information that they were actually able to create to this phony accounts and transfer money out of the banks and has it been infected and is that there's a contingency in the banking system and there's delays in transfers so for example there's a lot of users that we throw money from from but so are the president a bit so a normally we did a great integration in which this is an instant transaction and right now it's taking hours and it's not only us it's the whole banking system because they're in contingency there are there are flowing very. lowly they're trying to find out what went has happened and they're they're doing the best to geishas in terms of yes money i mean in the banking system they number of hours and days it takes to clear trades could be three days could be a normal clearing time and if there's

a problem the system works so slowly that they many times can fix these problems before it's noticed because the whole thing kind of goes slowly but with crypto on the scene and as you point out instant transactions instant confirmations when they legacy banking system slows up for any particular is that it shows up quickly and people are aware there is a problem so this is a nice thing sex and balance i understand actually in mexico now they're bringing on another exchange and to compete what the current exchange is spent on for one hundred years. talk about that a little bit yeah we only had one stock exchange in mexico which is called dublin so he got another about otis so different from for example in the u.s. where you have nasdaq you have bats you have a new york stock exchange mexico there was only one so this also made that you had no competition and there were there were no incentives for example to challenge someone for and for and for an i.p.o. and different type of service is

a better system and so this so right now there's there's a new stock exchange gold biba. and they're just finishing up the last the start running and now they're going to compete for orders now they're going to compete for better technology more i.p.o. so it's going to help develop also the it sounds like some competition now and it's going to be better for everybody yes definitely and one of the bits of they have is as their c.e.o. they brought. a very experienced person who has been leading venture capital funds and she was like the president of the mixed group which is the old the bencher capital funds and in mexico so probably we're going to see new players and start ups coming and making i.p.o. some. it's a go because there aren't many i.p.o.'s in mexico mexico city is an unbelievably charming city that while i love to visit and it should attract huge crypto community above and beyond what is already there you've already got

a thriving line you know it's funny we were talking yesterday and i said the head of the earthquake impact your guys and it's really a testament to the agility of this industry and compared to the legacy system because the answer was well you know we live the next week we're already in a new location now imagine if this happened to an old line bank earthquake damage and tons and tons of employés legacy systems old computer systems and they would still be a theory out what to do in the event you guys because it is kept up because it is so agile because it is a new paradigm you are up and running in j's and a new location right yeah we have to be running twenty four seven fortunately our building got damaged and we have to move out of there. but yeah we were up and running we were twenty four seven we had some delays for example in customer service or answering tickets but we kept them running and we kept on business as

usual right tell me about the demographics of the customer base he said in a half a million users what how does that break down demographically so most usurious are between twenty five to forty years of very much. we have made some surveys to see what is what is the type of profile and we also see what type of people so most of them are people that have either a bachelor or a master's degree they have some interest before it was only and taken that decide now you're seeing more financial and economic people coming into the into the space and also finding out even if they want to trade of their women best if they want to move money that there are some answer to all of this in so. crypto space so more and more people besides the technical side are coming and being attracted into the training space and what we're also seeing that is very impressive is this new generation of traders that you hadn't seen. any time in the xico because

we right now we have more accounts than old stock brokers in mexico together so we have more users than them this is amazing so the culture of owning stock and owning equity and being a shareholder and the capitalist system is really not part of the mexican culture and the guys are a startup even around with five or six shares in it and you already have more accounts than all the stockbroker has combined yet so and these people are not crypto savvy they're trading savvy and i mean that's how you build an economy i would think yeah you know so i mean either you might get attracted by bit corn or ship their currencies that's your was a great year in and returns and what happens afterwards is that they diversify and they go they start trying go probably i should invest and precious metals probably i should invest in stocks so yeah as you say this develops the economy this develops investments and now it's they're getting diversified people that bought

a twenty x. for example this year well they're now. experimented with with stocks for example and they're trying to build a portfolio which it's happening in the other way around that and you guys possibly would also go into brokerage right you're thinking of that are right now we are we are opening our institutional sales area so we have been very good with retail customers but we haven't been in the past so good with this person the vice and institutional investor site and that's something that we are focusing on right now especially meet during this and we're also creating this bridges for example like you mentioned with the new mexican stock exchange we just made an event with. listed in thomson reuters of the old our markets through block stream we got listed also in data services so we are getting all those bridges built for institutional investors to see how we are able to service and to bring information and financial

sounds like a trip for us to mexico city is coming up again soon we must go you must say thanks again for bad guys report thank you very much max that's going to do it for this edition of the kaiser report with me max hazare states you never want to thank our guest jose reyes he is with a bit dot com if you are a racist on twitter it's kaiser report and i stopped by a. fifty years ago pregnant women to come together as a sleeping pill. does. the scientific sweat terrible but not on. the board. across europe victims astonishing legal battles demanding at least some compensation. to waste the physical damage itself as well the constant mind

that the people who actually perpetrated this crime has never been able to justice and there's been a couple of. the american political soap opera widely known as russia gate appears to have no wind no evidence has been revealed to trump campaign colluded with russia there is mounting evidence the intelligence community or should i say the deep state monitored or even spied on from world. forman or sitting in a car when the fifth gets shot in the head. who are. different versions. one of them is on the death row there's no way he could have done it there's no possible way because they did not shoot around a corner.

the. british doctors who treated a former russian spy and his daughter revealed they first suspected an opioid overdose and delayed taking precautions for turned out to be a nerve agent attack. israeli navy intercepts a palestinian flotilla trying to reach cyprus a local correspondent has been reporting for us from one of the boat. is right you licensed gun. and very close to the palestinian protesters. f.b.i. informant or a spy us politicians in the media are confused over how to describe the role of the cambridge professor he said to have infiltrated donald trump's election campaign.

and italian voters expressed their outrage for the president blocks the euro skeptic coalitions plan for a new government. and welcome mining's neil harvey this is r.t. internet. the british doctors who treated you. say that they initially thought the former russian spy and his daughter was suffering from overdoses medics only realized days later that a nerve agent had been used as. b.b.c. journalists were given access to the hospital where the script while the former double agent and his daughter yulia were being treated in the wake of that suspected no recheck agent attack and the full program being broadcast on the

b.b.c. on tuesday evening shows that the doctors initially suspected that the attack or the symptoms that they presented were those of opioid poisoning and that's what they were being treated for and not a nerve agent attack now when they found out the doctors that is when they found out this description was a former russian spy they then began to treat it as if it was targeted attack and by doing so they didn't wear any protective clothing up until that point that led to several questions being asked by critics such as how did the doctors not get poisoned and also chemical weapons experts pointing out that the symptoms of poisoning are different to those of a nerve agent attack. initial police report stated fergus grupo was swinging back and forth while seated on the bench and that he also raised his hands multiple

times this description resembles a drugs overdose and the initial version was that the scruples were suffering from friends a little poisoning first tell till signs of military grade substance poisoning or rapid pupil constriction spasms and urine or incontinence all the symptoms are absent from the initial reports and photos now it's interesting because the pair were brought in on the sunday but they were only given treatment for a suspected nerve agent attack on the chews day and they still managed to survive despite two days of not being treated for shock now the doctors in the course of this documentary say that they didn't think the pair were going to survive when we first were aware this was a nerve agent. we were expecting them not to survive we still have to wait for

all the answers to come out before what happened on the day becomes clear now moscow has been denying all along that they've had anything to do with a suspected nobody chuck nerve agents attack on the script and his daughter and their main concern over the course of the past few months has been the fact that they haven't been given access to the parent particular to unia of course she's a russian citizen the russian embassy here in london have repeatedly offered their assistance but the british government here is still not granting that access as for you though we saw last week her first appearance since this incident took place she read out a televised statement and during the course of her statement she also made clear that at some point she would like to return home to russia so again remains to be seen exactly how you really a feels fully about all the events which took place. two

belgian police officers and a civilian have been killed in a shooting in the city's police chief says his staff were specifically targeted. this video appeared online and is said to show the scene of the shooting of the attackers motives remain unclear terrorism has been named as a possible reason and according to the belgian prime minister the suspect was being monitored as a suspected extremist into oliver as details. the gunman has been killed by police we understand that he got a hold of a weapon after disarming the two of the the two police officers that were killed them all because it was so hardcore i heard the two gunshots in a store a person on the ground three meters away from me i saw the attacker running on my right. woman hostage in going towards the school but what we're hearing from the

interior minister of belgium jambon is that it's anti terror offices trying to get to the bottom of the potential motive terrorism is just one of the scenarios that they're looking at right now but when it comes to just who the perpetrator of this attack was we are starting to get more information from the local media there he's being reported to be thirty six year old belgian man who had just been released from prison yesterday on on monday the twenty eighth but belgium is no stranger when it comes to terrorist attacks attacks in a similar vein to this one if we look back to just last year in august of twenty seventeen two soldiers were attacked by a man wielding a machete they were just wounded there were also other isis inspired or isis claimed attacks involving police officers in both october and august twenty sixth and the thing is those soldiers and police they were in the most part on the

streets and more visible because of the suicide bombing that took place on the twenty second of march twenty sixth enough those three suicide bombers that blew themselves up in both brussels as airports and on the brussels metro as well they killed thirty two people three people have been killed two of them police officers one of them a passer by as a gunman opened fire at the attacker was killed at the scene shot dead by police officers. america's split again and not just along party lines this time it's about one word spygate the term was used by donald trump in reference to the alleged planting of a mole in his election campaign by the intelligence services the power to justice though describes that person as quote an informant so is it just semantics takes a look. there are many out there who would and do call into question donald trump's business promise but there's no denying the guy is a branding machine and his labels have

a tendency to work like gangbusters mark you know little mark he's a lion ted and you know that's his name we can't have met rocket man sick puppy shooting rockets all over the place through kid hillary crazy very he's crazy is a bit but you know he does it with terms ladies hashtag where the buzz word is spreading like wildfire he came up with this one to remind anyone who follows his twitter which is everyone that the f.b.i. may have spied on his campaign through a confidential informant but that sounds all official and is definitely not scary or catchy q trump we now call it spygate. spygate adding a gate at the end makes it so much better doesn't it watergate deflate gate russia gate priceless and according to some anonymous sources that spoke with the a.p. terms choice of the word spy was not an accident he allegedly picked the term believing it to be more sinister and likely to be picked up by the media and if that's true boy was he right the revelations of the obama era political targeting

grow more ominous by the day trump claims the f.b.i. may have been spying on his campaign he's kind of upset with the read an article in the new york times seems to feel that there was a mole or a spy in this campaign ok no surprise that fox picked up and ran with trump's phrasing but seriously it's common knowledge that if a toddler is throwing a tantrum you simply don't give them the attention they clearly want the fake scandal that trump scripted for us in the media this week as a name when we're not going to repeat this morning it has tweets to go with it which i am not going to read because reading those tweets is what he wants us to do see even enjoy get m.s.n. b.c. could have been a shining beacon of rationality for the rest of the media to look up to and not give trump exactly what he wanted but no. president trump has seized on this new branding effort to discredit the discredit the russia investigation i don't really know where. spygate and it just went on from there after running out of

steam either supporting or contradicting trump claims little hint either way it still works for trump they went on spending air time distracting the semantics at play here we give you the great debate of informant first by what's your reaction first the tweet and second to the distinction between a spy term on the president is using and informants they're one in the same a confidential informant is someone who is informing confidentially in other words spying you may call this person a confidential informant that sounds perfectly fine right but what if it's a spa funnily enough and a breakdown of the coverage of translate this phrase by the washington post we were mentioned as having not picked up on it but you haven't said it yet but this whole time i haven't thought it ok well then spygate spygate spygate can we move on now individual at the center of the so called spygate cambridge university professor
