going to be people within government who all going to feel the belief that the market will fix itself but we've seen plenty of times in the pos about just doesn't always happen sometimes the government does need to intervene of course we probably also see plenty of abby is whether it is a veil ability perhaps the government believes that the sufficient stall available in these outlets which all selling these items at reasonable prices which will effectively push aside those trying to make a quick pounds the expense of people who need these basic goods but again as long as that continues to be the case as long as there are people in as long as there is short supply then. i fully believe to be the wrong move as far as the government can send and i do believe this is one of those situations they do need to intervene . and i'll be back with more news in often.

go to work. straight home. hi welcome to the herbert report i'm stacy herbert's and this is my associates max kaiser right here and i have. max i think we are perhaps in

a parallel universe because i heard some information that there is another show out there called the kaiser report and i bring this up because apparently there is evidence to support this claim that people put in the comments all the time that there's a thing called the kaiser report out there well we may have spotted a parallel universe going backwards in time strange particles observed by an experiment and talk because could be evidence of an alternative reality where everything is upside down and if this is true they're saying that time is also going backwards compared to where we're observing from right the following time and a parallel universe is going backwards and you know if you think clearly if you meditate on it you you hear contest as dig down to is that part of the metaverse which i would call timeshare you know in if you're

a sailor now out there in the ocean sailing there's a thing called a wind shear or wind is blowing in 2 opposite directions and as a sailor that can be tricky to navigate they have 2 forces of when they're blowing in opposite direction you have wind shear timeshare is the event horizon between this universe and the parallel universe where time in this universe going one way time in the other universe is going in the opposite direction so you have timeshare and this is what a lot of people get confused about when they are deep in a deep state of meditation they have a glimpse into the meadow a physical proof of the fact that nothing. is meaningful in any way at all cancels a everything cancels each other out and everything is at 0 and that to get to a place of universal consciousness we are all now heading to 0 and then we need to

go negative to be equitable with that palau universe that's what negative interest rates are all about that's what negative oil prices are all about that's what bitcoin is all about because the difficulty adjustment every 2 weeks that keeps the protocol alive. is chasing down a rabbit hole of infinite negativity the infinite negative numbers is constantly getting infinitely smaller as it approaches that event horizon so let's continue with this story from antarctica and how in my apply to our financial world as max and i see it here on the herbert report because what they're what they've observed is this balloon they call a need an acronym for a longer word and what set of words and what they have found is that these high speed particles coming out of the ice in antarctica now that's not supposed to

happen because these high speed particles these high energy particles are not supposed be able to travel through earth so it can only be they're saying like looking at our known physics that we know of that is it defies the laws of physics so it has to come from a parallel universe or it's a malfunction and the balloon and they said it was a parallel universe explaining the signal requires the existence of a topsy turvy universe created in the same big bang as our own and existing in parallel with it in this mirror world positiveness negative left is right and time runs backwards it would be a universe made of anti-matter rather than matter so when i read read that i think you know here on the herbert report that is also known as the report in a parallel dimension is that when we started to observe around the same time of 2016 negative interest rates and all we have

a 5000 years of interest rate history they've never been negative we've also know that 5000 years of commerce and trade there's never been a negative price for a good so this is our known physics of our monetary universe so if it doesn't apply and we can't understand it based on the. known physics of our own understanding of value in value in money is all related to time so it has to be a parallel dimension right well markets are discounting mechanisms they are great at this kind of thing for future events so negative interest rates and by the way the interest rates in the united kingdom now are negative for the 1st time in 300 years since the creation of really the bank of england and so what that is telling us and markets are a collective outcome of all interaction by human right markets it's a human construct all 'd interaction from a by humans in the market create our future reality and so negative interest

rates are now telling us that we're heading into a time of negative time flows we're going backwards in time as i've said before it's great for goldman sachs because they can go backwards in time and steal from clients in the past something they've been trying to do for a long time negative energy prices mean that there is a parallel universe with where all the known laws of physics as described by einstein of course i'm dining in physics overturned newtonian physics and now we're into a post on stony and physical reality and having the most of those laws but not all overturned by this new revelation and therefore matter itself will be presented to us as negative. and urging the negative gravity that so far hasn't been accounted for but that's human emotion is negative

gravity and we'll see how human emotion fits into the einstein model of the universe and of course because it is the currency of the parallel or i should say the multiverse and that's why you need to accumulate to quit now because otherwise you you won't you won't survive in the revelation of the multiverse that's fast approaching well actually i am prepared for that with my orange toenails here because that helps me access my pickling while it and all the universes i must admit i am also on the kaiser report so just so you know i'm able to jump between these universes and speaking of you know breaking the laws of physics you mentioned that you know interest rates are negative for the 1st time in england for the 1st time in several 100 years but the fed's balance sheet top 7 trillion for 1st time ever after an increase of 103000000000 in the past week putting the increase in context the fed's balance sheet hit 6 trillion just on april 2nd it holds 4.01

trillion of u.s. treasuries 32000000000 higher than previous week old 1.6 trillion of mortgage backed securities up 79000000000 weak over a week and that the fed balance sheet and it looks like you know it just like one of these anomalies that was spotted by this balloon flying over antarctica right with that 7 trillion. number it represents a black hole of debt there's no resale value for the securities i say we have 7 trillion dollars worth of assets however those assets don't have any value they have no resale value if they tried to sell those assets in the market they would get 0 for them so in fact that's a that's a black hole that's growing in the balance sheet of the federal reserve bank and. the global black hole on the central bank's balance sheets is now topping 20 trillion and it'll it's projected to top 100 trillion in the next few years as we experience this transitioning from

a world of. of values that are generated visa be the kinetic relationship with our conscious and the physical world where if we touch something we ascribe alue to that but now we're into a world of as as bank of america is this very recently they said that the federal reserve bank is engaging and market fakery this is a major bank they said that the federal reserve bank you can look this up said that the federal reserve is engaging in manipulating faking that manipulate but faking markets they're creating a whole a gram of value that they say is on the balance sheet that is not there it's a whole a gram it's non existant there's nothing there they simply create

these virtual dollars to be able to claim to their creditors that the value that they have in as collateral is something other than 0 but that's false so now we're at the event horizon right the precipice now of the global consciousness is about to reveal itself and the ego the collective global ego gets demolished in a heartbeat well exactly but you know the point is with the laws of physics we're also fractals of everything and they say there's a you know a black hole in the middle of every galaxy of every universe and if there's multi versus then there are plenty of black holes so it only makes sense that you know we humans and animals societies and things on earth we create the thing that we are from like that is what we know is these black holes and this black hole of debt is

sucking in. the black holes are what defy the laws of physics that's what causes the time space continuum to shatter and that's why the black hole of debt has become so hard and big as you say we've passive and rising and that's why you see this because of occasion of time and matter including time negative interest rates matter negative oil prices the biggest lie economists central bankers and financial media tells is that they're fighting deflation by injecting more debt money into the black hole they are causing the deflation deflation as the defined as the expansion of the black hole of debt and it's gotten to the point where it's now attracting it's own it's out of control you can't stop it there's no stopping the black hole of debt we're we're about to get sucked into it

and as you say we're going to bout to get spaghetti a 5. into this black hole of debt it's called big get a fixation in this universe anyway in this herbert report universe is called spaghettification maybe right speak out of occasion and reggaeton as ation not to mention the cottage cheese of occasion are all parallel universe and the funniest thing is that because i'm 4 or 5 or 6 our $1000.00 are going there might not be any humans as we know that concept around to see it. all right we're going to take a break when i come back much more coming you know what. holiday a hot tip international memorial towards journalist works real terms of media who are part of the global news platform to participate sunday published works in video

welcome back to a they report i'm max keiser time now to turn to cory clifton swan bitcoin now full disclosure we have our own affiliate page over there it's that font bitcoin dot com forward slash kaiser you must check this out cory welcome it's good to be here max thanks for having me on are writing now your logic during a recession now don't don't fret because a lot of famous companies launched during a recession if you will a packard burger king microsoft general motors are you being impacted by this global phenomenon the coke coronavirus the lockdown all that stuff yeah of course i mean i think there is there's no bad time to start a company that's selling big quint given that i think it's probably the best consumer product of the internet age so it's probably a good business to be and. yeah it's been interesting in 2 ways one you know it's

been really focusing for our team having extra hours you know that are no longer being allocated to traveling around and see friends they're traveling to and from an office or whatever just kind of locked in and working on the company which is great for moving really fast and then obviously the macro environment has started lots and lots of new conversations and further it's a conversation around a corner on our money around you know money printer and all the quantitative easing of governments around the world. and i see i think just in general it's been kind of a perfect storm for us launching on march 30th you know 5565 and a half weeks before the having and in the middle of all this noise. it's just been great to see the company grow really fast and gain the attention of lots of people and in the coin and outside of the right while you know you have that all bulge of all toys 2014 to 27 tame that's over with believe it just folks not because now and

now and the same flight that. that's going to do it that's going to take us to the promised land you know i'm not quite as optimistic about hitting that 99 percent mark which is where you know in the long term i think we will be there you know because mark compared to the rest of the space in this cycle i think there's definitely enough ignorance out there and enough people with the senate and the. you know all this or understanding of it coming in our money that i think there will be quite the u.s. coin or all coin boom just time around as well i suspect it will be smaller as a percentage of what's going on because it will take more share but i think because this wave in my estimation will be something like 10 x. bigger than the 27000 wave of new people coming in and cetera you know that you actually see you know by absolute numbers if not percentage the number of scams being quite a bit actually bigger than in 2017 the i love that name that's come out money particle burr. now the chairman of the fed printing vigorously trying to pump up

the stock market and so that out the generations the millennial the genovese and others realize that the fed a scam they're just there to pump the stock market donald trump doesn't care how many people die from coronaviruses long a stock market goes up and for that to happen if he keeps con up the fed every single day like the guy addicted to heroin calling his dealer saying print mower print mower print more and their money printer go but at the and then the mainstream press a bloomberg of the new york times and say n.b.c. is denying that there's a connection between fed policy and stock market pumping so it's all quite amusing to watch and because you now give us the it a wind out at take a step back and get rich why everyone else goes broke but let's talk about this quote i read of yours they use a year out to build the intolerant minority of $10000000.00 bit coiners what does that mean yes this is a piece there are a few months ago and you know i obviously with the name of the company being swan

it's. the obvious i'm a big miss and fan and i think that the crime is the biggest and most important device on black swans are not all negative that we've had and you know maybe hundreds of years. and so the intolerant no minority is actually a concept that he wrote about quite a bit in a couple of his books and it's basically that you only need to hit a small source small percentage of people in a given population who have a very intransigent view when they won't waver from before the whole society flips and basically sees things their way one of the easier examples of this is kosher meat or. basically find you know the vast majority of products in the us you know packaged goods will be kosher here because people who eat kosher will not eat non-kosher but people who don't care are happy kosher food it's just not that big a deal so that and so similarly we think the number in the united states if we have

325030 1000000 people you know that 3 or 4 percent just kind of an easier out number let's say it's about 10000000 people that we would need to have caring about bitcoin and have excess in the game and as we just did the math and kind of defines that you know we we can estimate you can check this out on this on web site on the blog if you want to see the math you know basically there's about 100000 people in the u.s. today who own a decent chunk of their car and that's $2500.00 worth their more and actually understand becoming to the point where they might you know shut up the town show the town hall meeting or you know write a letter to a congressman or her just generally be really on social media in defense of. our estimation is that we've got about a 100 x.-prize from where we are today just in adoption and evangelism and trying to recruit those. 10000000 because it has to get to the point where you know we. it

kind of flipped the society to really being you know at least big crying on equal footing earning kind of accepted in the united states we think that's a fight that we can play a big part in this on for a you don't need to be ubiquitous to get the revelation completely on you know in american history less than a 3rd of the americans even wanted to have a revolution against the english and it doesn't take a whole majority to kick out a monarchy in this case the moniker of shysters over there at the fed the so let's continue on one of the features over there swap big quien that people are really gravitating toward and kind of stands out as almost a unique feature it's the dollar cost averaging feature so if it's highly volatile we know that because it's moved from $1.00 where we 1st started talking about it on this show to now at you know $8910000.00 and then to take the emotion out of the

volatility one of the best way to do that through dollar cost averaging explain yes a dollar cost averaging is a classic investment strategy it basically means you choose the amount that you're going to invest in a given asset and you don't change the amount so if the asset is low you're buying more of the asset as you're buying last so just basically is a fairly effective way and that's certainly the way the investors think about dollar cost averaging and some are certainly using spawn in that way we actually think probably the even more powerful value proposition of the product is around automated savings in a good way to think about this is you know americans specialist's you know 50 plus years you know basically dating back to the end of the gold standard completely in 1971 i've been notoriously bad at saving and basically the only ways that anyone sort of stocks way decent amount of value in an asset is either through amid a payroll tax deductions in a 401 k. or the essentially forced payments of

a mortgage because you don't want to lose your home and so we're trying to. you know one time decision where you you know decide that you're going to allocate some money and typically and you're going to store some of your value in the current protocol and you're going to treat it just the same way that you do those other big buckets of savings which is just it's just going to happen automatically so the only way you can buy through spawn is if you sign up for a recurring purchase plan and you know we kind of recommend you not go about this so this is kind of just my personal recommendation basically you know if you make 100 grand or less you should be thinking about putting something like 2 percent of your topline into because you know let's say you're making like you know 5 grand a month that's going to be you know a $100.00 a month he'd be putting in a big clients just sign up for a $2025.00 a week plan and just start socking away savings you know how else can you make 2 percent a year salary last forever oh yeah well it's much worse the way describe because american economy runs on keynesian economics and keynesians hate savings they they

vilify savings people in the media talk about the savings glut as if it's a bad thing even though it doesn't even exist paul krugman says never say only spend the economy's based on spending and never save money and you know always 30000000 people that are now unemployed with no savings. how psycho for you has you been saving and certainly for the past 10 years even a dollar a day you'd have a half a 1000000 or a 1000000 dollar question right now so let's talk about your competitor there over there at. square you know square which is jack dorsey he's 2nd company after twitter he's a c.e.o. of he's got the cash gap. and people can buy big coin on the cash strapped these established and it's a big business my 1st question is how much of that business can you get from jack

you know or is it just a hugely expanding pie and number 2 you know he does run twitter and twitter has a problem with censorship he censors people and in the big point community it's a no no for censorship you know because in a sense or ship resistant so is that going to be an achilles heel for jack dorsey your thoughts. 1st off i think that jack is doing great things for because notwithstanding any misgivings people might have about you know twitter censorship type it's very clear that you know having just the word decrying of his profile that allocating internet resources marketing resources toward because when we started doing heavily in 201821000 you know has been has been great for the space we love to see the sales there we love that you know. on the backs of our announcement in early december they decided to put out a product manager all to set up are current purchases they did that

a few weeks after we announced those nice to see them launched as well just after us. you know they receive plenty of room for us to undercut them significantly on price things that were lower than school then cash at significantly lower every chair that you would want for setting up a recurring purchase plan. so you know we don't really see them lowering prices they're a public company and they like to have profits and you know they don't really need to lower because they have a captive audience and it's pretty convenient for somebody inside of cash just some day when they're so you know i think that for anyone who wants to recommend a 100 percent decline focused product where you're not going to distract somebody with you know stocks which they push heavily as you've noticed like even when they sponsor a pod cast they you know that might be a big time but they still have to talk about stocks because that's what their their masters that cash up require them to do. you know and you don't have to pons and we don't have a mint so it's a pure between experience it's all focused on education we have some of the best

authors and some of the best casters in the world every involved in swamp people likes to follow their young pretty scary road inventing decline which is a great introduction is all star co-founder and c.t.o. citizen that kind you know greatest once and runs education you know we don't actually have a marketing department we just have an education department so i think we're doing a really good job. helping people understand decry and helping them think about it in the right way you know the city their own finances and their own plans for the future and you know i don't really see that being with a competitive situation with with cash now coinbase i'm happy to take all of their business and i don't think that people should. join me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure and obviously going to get. no no crowd. no shock.

no. this is our to u.k. . the health secretary defends a prime minister's chief advisor over his knockdown trip to daraa to peter oborne tells r.t. u.k. he cannot understand why dominic come on to central shops across england from june 15th if they can protect workers and the pub letter calling for dominic cummings to be sacked because he's and he joins me now with the all latest so he said the government continues to defend the prime minister's chief political advisor over the weekend from sections of the media and across the political spectrum airing all facing up the daily governmental briefing and he was asked several times understand why reasonable people can take a different view but my judgment which is the same as the prime minister's judgment is that what might mr cummings did was have got all these facts out earlier what i

say is that it's incredibly important that as a country we focus on. what we need to do now i think it is reasonable to conclude that the description of events that mr cummings put out yesterday was within the guidelines but i also as i've said. in not so i think the 1st question i do think it that you know i understand that reasonable people will disagree with that and of course i understand some of the some of the anger that boiled up over the weekend. now the opposition parties of written a letter to the tri minister calling on him to remove dominic cummings from his position and they have i haven't taken part in the writing of not letter of course they're now led by kiss stomach and they give us outlines how they believe mr cummings behavior would affect public health and also how the government is perceived by the public and also how the public perceives the big need to really

abide by the type of lockdown measures when somebody in such a prominent position himself isn't doing so now we've seen calls from people like me right to the former attorney general for mr cummings to resign and somebody who has to don from his position is douglas ross he is a was the under secretary of state for scotland. decided to step down from his position because he said that as a person in a government's position as in a ministerial position he just couldn't be able to face all our season to situations who themselves have been abiding by the lockdown measures some of them not being able to say goodbye to loved ones as a result and then explaining how he could remain in good faith within a governor. or that doesn't take any measures against somebody who doesn't keep to those lockdown 'd restrictions as it was coming himself he faced the media over the bank holiday weekend and stressed that what he did in his opinion was legal and

reasonable. i don't think of so i don't think i'm so different and i don't think there's one roof from the and one rule for the people. as i said i think that's a look at the. and i knew what the guidance was. it talks about exceptional circumstances with with small children and i think that in all circumstances i behave reasonably illegally as i as i said i think there is understandable anger but a lot of their anger is based on reports in the media that the that have not been true and. it's extremely regrettable. but. the good the media that we're reporting some of these things that were wrong were told that they were wrong but they reported them anyway. now the only cummings

also drove to barnard car so which 'd is not far from durham it's a small little town or village and he said he drove there in order to test his eyesight see whether his eyesight was capable of handling a journey or driven journey before heading back to london of course that led to some doctors warning people that if they have any doubts as to the impairment of their vision that they shouldn't be driving at all now mr cummings there's decisions to make that journey and the subsequent government inaction with regards to that jerry has led to a drop in the polls we've seen a poll carried out by some done to the congress now according to this poll boris johnson's rating is at minus one just 4 days ago it was plus 19 the government's approval rating has also taken a tumble it sat minus 2 just a day ago it was a plus 14 so really we can see within the public perception a real negative impact on how the government is handling this crisis and in

particular how it's handling this latest round. thank you very much indeed for that latest update you case is the end of that political journalist peter oborne told me earlier that it is difficult to understand why the prime minister has allowed dominic cummings to keep his job. political logic would determine that when. an advisor becomes the story he should go when it is distracting from everything else he should go. and when he's unable to account very satisfactory for ease of behavior everything all the normal rules of politics would suggest that mr cummings should indeed should have gone several weeks several days ago as a prominent tennis what do you make of the fact he did it sometimes play in the media and if there had been some 4 stories claims here surely the media should take

some of the plane over this well i have to say that limit inaccurate or misleading at any rate accounts seem to have appeared in the spectator magazine by mr mr cummings wife. so he's limited our mother well it seems to have revealed a lot of important material which you're in is in the public interests this is trump by the way the rule book here is that you if something goes wrong you blame the media and you put them out as this phrase scum media is going around at the moment i miss makes me feel very nervous instructed the same to the washington post the new york times all major apart from fox news will get in big and sometimes even fox news overly a completely loyal subservient media is going to get time a day from donald trump and that appears to be. a lot of indication that this is

the way the johnson government is moving the former police officer and policing expert peter williams told me that knocked down rebels are already trying to use dummy cummings behavior to float the rules. i'm not sure what the damage will be when it's been when it's looked at retrospective legal it certainly hasn't done it any so use whatsoever. i've said previously in our conversation with bill all artsy u.k. the most. powerful tool that the police have insurance or enforce this very difficult legislation is the cooperation of the public and as you know in the wire the concepts of policing generally policed by consent and of course what the public will have witnessed over the past few days will have dual absolutely no focus what's sold to rank and file offices today that are out there trying to

enforce all applied for pleas which the college of policing of suggested that will be the best practice to do with this legislation and of course that is suing casey corage explained on the final stage of that as you know bill is still in force. and i would like to know though i hope pretty good guess how many times it's been said sewer on juicy police officer or police c.s.o. today well why are you picking on me what about dominick cummins i'm afraid the credibility of the legislation is now shot through what you just said was of course demonstrated over the bank holiday wasn't it we had packed beaches beachgoers even saying well cummings has given the reason to break the rules so what you're saying the police authority has really been undermined now. ok lately i mean basically this is ours are set free be asleep this is very difficult let's schley ship so the

police service so were it was rushed through as of sept previously in about a week within parliament there was no stage for the what ifs it's legislation that does have a major impact on everybody's all our lives. and it's been very very difficult period traveling body mamal the prime minister has announced he will be opening all nonessential shops for mid june as part of the next phase in easing the country out of lockdown it is our intention to allow our outdoor markets to reopen from june the 1st subject to all premises being made coated secure as well as car show rooms which often had significant outdoor space and where it is gen generally easier to apply social distancing then from the 15th of june we intend to allow all other non-essential retail ranging from department stores to small independent

shops to reopen. retailers will have to implement the guidelines set up by the government including making sure that workers and shoppers maintain social distancing rules of 2 meters that also have to adhere to hygiene standards including the use of hand sanitizer one way systems and quarantining returned items for more of their salon joined by an epidemiologist talked to mike tilsley mike going to be with us what do you make of the plan to open shops is it the right time now well i think we are at the stage where we are starting to see cases declining and we can start cautiously lift lockdown but this is the key thing that we we can't go back to where we were that have been january february time any measure that is relaxed needs to be done with an element of caution in place and the key thing when it comes to opening of shops is they need to be done with social distancing measures in place that's going to be the case for months to come as we

see these relaxations that social distancing nice to be adhered to i will say we could cautiously reopen but we need to be prepared that we may see a rise in the reproduction of will which could see a rise in cases a result of relaxation so we should be prepared over the weeks to come that if we do start to see these rises then be prepared to reintroduce some to the ban at large that way because so you are talking about that our number there and it's still dangerously close to one isn't. well i do still some uncertainty around the forecast but certainly with our forecasts we predict that it's somewhere between about no point $70.00 and varies a little bit on a region to region basis but it is relatively close to one and so of course that as we start to see measures relaxed we will start to see that rising now of course as has been discussed a lot in the media this is this relaxation is also coupled with this testing and

tracing protocol if that can be done effectively and we can isolate clusters of cases as they may emerge then hopefully we can keep that reproduction number below one and we can prevent a 2nd wave whilst also relaxing lockdown what is happening other countries is important because we are seeing other european countries easing their restrictions but but still we have seen a small rise in infections yet in some countries that is the case we've seen a small rise in infections. from many countries in europe that have started to lift lockdown 8 weeks we can be cautiously optimistic but we've not seen a significant rise in cases and in the reproduction number as measures have been relaxed but i will say cautiously optimistic for many continue or best still in the very very early days of relaxation so we really need to closely monitor the situation both in the u.k. and in other countries and be prepared to react if we do start to see cases rising

and also mark other countries are ahead of us on schools and of course meeting other health holds it when it comes to schools some opening very soon now should parents be worried and i think parents i think parents it's likely parents have to make their own decisions when it comes to sending children back to school i think the evidence is really clear that children tend to be more mildly infected and and that's very very clear from the data however what we know less about is the children's role in transmission and so it's very important again that when school starts. so open web possible social distancing measures are put in place and good hygiene practices i accept as a father of young children myself that is quite challenging but school's out and i think we'll start to cautiously reopen but again similarly with other measures they need to be done gradually we need to monitor the situation and it if necessary react if we start see cases right and just briefly mention that word cautiously

there's talk of the chance of a 2nd wave it could mean then lock down again but might the public not comply especially after the dominic coming saga i mean this is a this is a very unfortunate incident and i would say that i have been to turn this to the public robyn dami dominic coming specifically i have been amazed by in general how you know how good the public have been act at hearing to lock down throughout the process and i think people have really really come together and i think this incident to me is really put in perspective this is the time when we need to continue doing what we have been doing because it's really clear that it has worked and as we starting to relax lock down and we can start to get some of our lives back we need to do that but within the guidelines that have been put in place because it's really important think about our friends and family who may be in the high risk group what we want to do is protect them and prevent larger epidemic occurring in the future dr mike tells me thank you for joining us. still to come.

russian president vladimir putin announces that the postponed military parade will be states at the end of next month adding to the expense of a short in that russia has passed its covert notes and the prices of items such as hands ties are gone through the roof competition what's all this urge the government to crack down on pandemic profiteering.

is you'll be via reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe from. the isolation community. are you going the right way or are you being led so. direct. what is true what is faith. in a world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the

depths. or remain in the shallowness. president vladimir putin says he's been assured by specialists that the current of ours has now passed its peak in russia he went on to reveal that moscow's postponed victory day parade commemorating the defeat of nazi germany will now be held next month and he's been i guess he has more. well one must bear in mind how important the victory day celebrations ah for the average russian i mean the price that the country paid to win the 2nd world war was was tremendous it was absolutely huge tens of millions of russians serbian citizens perished died stopping the nazi war machine so obviously you know with most russians having relatives who died in that

war it's important to come together and to celebrate their sacrifice to that end we know that the government left that laying the parade until the last moment they they had hoped that the pandemic would boss russia by wouldn't be a serious enough threaten those days it was still unclear fortunately they delayed until the situation got better and now let me have putin says he was assured by specialists that the worst is over the peak has been passed and he has ordered the minister of defense to prepare for the 1st part of the victory day celebrations there are 2 parts the 1st part is the military parade with vehicles and jets roaring move ahead with thousands of troops marching down the red square over russian cities that part of the parade will happen on the 24th of june unfortunately the 2nd part of the parade that is the march of the immortal regiment where millions of russians all over the country marched with portraits of their grandfathers all grandmothers who venture into so many veterans who died during the

2nd world war they march in massive columns and massive crowds massive much as it obviously is not meant couldn't them selves said it's impossible to to guarantee safety at the demick pandemic safety in those conditions is union thank you shewing you unfortunately for objective reasons we can't show it terence to strict safety rules during the march of the immortal regiment which unites millions of arabs citizens in a single formation with an endless stream of. people marching along the streets of our cities and in these circumstances it is impossible to maintain any social distancing therefore i propose to hold the march 1 month after the victory day parade on july the 26 that date also marks our military glory it's the day of the navy. tentatively the date is on the 26th of july but with the situation of the pandemic as they are there's no telling whether it will happen or

whether it will be delayed again in the interest of public safety and that is why they cancel the initial great initial march of the immortal regiment because people's safety comes 1st then the parade will the celebrations can always come a little later when the situation is safer but but i must say this is welcome news that it's been an incredibly difficult few months for everyone all over the world for millions tens of millions of russians and a little celebration memorial and show you know this is the time for them experts say the u.k. could be split into zones which would allow travel between areas with lower rates of infection based on models used in france and spain the domestic restrictions could prevent a 2nd wave with parts of the u.k. still battling belt breaks in regions designated green people could travel freely or those in red zones will still have lockdown restrictions in place like no non essential travel those living in green zones will be able to move to other regions

with low infection rates linked by green bridges as red zones get their infections under control restrictions can be loosened and new green bridges could be formed to link them to other green zones but the governors previously said it's preference is to lift restrictions uniformly only imposing tougher limits if infections rise and one of those behind the plan barrie told me that if the plan will only work it will only work if the public has faith in it. there are 2 differences one is clean bridges within the country so you could for example consider trains going from one green zone to another green zone without stopping in a red zone so therefore they will be commuting between those 2 possible and then internationally with airport it is quite easy so for example say that. there are 1000 of the u.k.'s already safe it could open up travel to for example new york or travel to madrid would still be forbidden if madrid isn't safe yet we've got a slight problem though in this country bearing in mind the rally over the

so-called late breaking their own rules i'm sure you are fully aware of this can the government risk such a policy. well i think it's well explained where communications all the number one important factor and obviously a band by the head of the government is also quite helpful here. they can risk and i think they can really give power back to the people rather than having a feeling that you're living in under lockdown which does not really apply to your region. and death for bands of natural because if you don't feel it risk why should you bait a certain route it sounds like a clever domestic strategy but of course that britain is imposing quarantine for international travelers and that and that is surely where the greater risk of infection is coming from well not a risk of infection is independent of your passport or nationality right now probably given that the u.k. has to set down quite poorly the risk is probably highest to spread infection in the u.k.

so what we propose is that internationally we should work together to allow travel between regions which are safe here and by the way the european commission and many european countries have to convert it and if they ever criticized the current time them in the u.k. as being something based on nationality rather than the situation to virus. with prices of hand sanitizers antibacterial wipes and even toilet paper soaring during the pandemic the competition watchdog has ruled that tough apolo as a leader from central government but it seems those powers aren't forthcoming as are the case kate partridge reports given politician who once said in time of war the loudest patriots are the greatest profiteers this time the war is coronavirus and the patriots are those profiteering on essential items the practice of ramping up prices for profit on high demand goods is called price gouging and there's plenty of it between march the ten's and april the 19th the competition and markets will sorry to receive $21000.00 complaints related to the pandemic including price

hikes the average increase was 130 percent and for hand sanitizers 367 percent hitting consumers in the pocket the things i suggest we cut out the company being able to convey what i get. for between 6 and then there was that in q 4 point ahead sanitizers you know things like that you see issues because you go not the only people who call or fold it now but the competition watchdog has promised to take action. kovac 19 task force continues to scrutinize reports of potentially harmful sells products including inflated price rises the vast majority of businesses are doing the right thing but where there is evidence that fans may have broken the law we'll be using our existing powers to the maximum possible extent but there's a cabby at along with our existing powers we have also advised the government on options for emergency time limited legislation that could give

a better chance of dealing with this type of problem in other words the competition watchdog has lobbied the government to crack down on profiteering from the pandemic as a reg gaps in the system which lawyers say leaves the c.m.a. powerless and a much prime minister agreed with the watchdog and told the house of commons that new laws were needed to tackle profiteering profiteering is something that we should be looking at from a legacy point of view in loose houses then in april business secretary alex sharma met amazon and e bay to discuss price gouging on their sites after reports of ham sanitizers selling for $360.00 pounds the retailers claimed thousands of listings have since been removed while emergency laws have been passed in the us and france but the idea stalled in the u.k. as the business department is not in favor of laws on price control there is probably going to be people within government who all are going to be of the belief that the market will fix itself but we've seen plenty of times in the past about

just doesn't always happen sometimes the government doesn't need to intervene of course where you can probably also see plenty of areas where there is a veil ability perhaps the government believes that there's sufficient stock available in these outlets which are selling these items at reasonable prices which will effectively push aside those trying to make a quick pounds the expense of people who need these basic goods but again as long as that continues to be the case as long as there are people in as long as there is short. blither is all acutely and fully believed to be the wrong move as far as the government concerned but i do believe this is one of those situations they do need to interfere we contacted the department of business to ask if any progress had been made on new legislation but they haven't got back to us and not all shopkeepers are making big profits with some saying they had to cut their hours and increased prices to make ends meet as a store where i think we are struggling we have got no customers so we have reduced

our working hours used to be 6 to 7 it has been reduced to 62 but i had to open just because i have regular customers and rested and that ideally were the newspapers do while other local shop owners blame their suppliers for demanding higher prices which have had to be passed on to consumers to ensure that businesses and the services they provide survive in terms of obviously the common items you know and stuff like that if you can even get this stuff it is extremely expensive we have to remain competitive we are based we don't have loyalty cards we are based on our customer service and part of customer service is open offering a competitive by a fair price in a global pandemic retailers and consumers are feeling the pinch there is also big pressure on suppliers to produce the essential items that personal health care and government advice requires but by ad very shopping bills it seems some along the retail chain are profiting from the pandemic and watchdogs want the government to

keep its pledge to stop profiting from becoming profiteering kate partridge r.t. london that's all for the cervical exulting america will take over the top of the our from all of us here in westminster thanks for watching and goodbye. you can be well with yeah you like.
