actually. know. which your thirst for action. greetings and salutation. i tell you my friends here in washington d.c. you can feel you can feel the fear on the streets it's palpable it's as thick as virginia humidity in august but this fear of my friends isn't coming from the thousands of protesters that have descended on the mashable mall or lafayette square or the d.c. residents navigating both the coburg 19 pandemic and the black lives matter protests no no this tidal wave of fear is emanating from the marble

halls of the capitol building and the oval shaped rooms of the white house yes the corridors of power here in washington d.c. are seeing a nation rise up in one voice and scream enough is enough black lives matter reform and justice are coming and the old ways of oppression and white power are ending how do you know they are as frightened of school children on report card day well because they are now turning us streets into war zones starting with the nation's capital as d.c. is reports the chief of the national guard bureau confirmed tuesday that an additional $1500.00 national guardsmen would join the response to protests in d.c. after $1300.00 were deployed on monday defense secretary mark asper who spent wednesday morning up posing the united states president donald trump the chicken hawk in sheep's threats of military reprisals against u.s. citizens well he abruptly reversed a decision to order active duty troops home from the. national capital region on

wednesday and now journalist jason leopold and anthony cormier of buzz feed are reporting that quote the drug enforcement administration has been granted sweeping new authority to conduct covert surveillance and collect intelligence on people participating in protests over the police killing of george floyd according to a 2 page memorandum obtained by buzz feed yes while many norm normally the da is limited to only investigating drug related federal crimes it now appears that attorney general william bar is so scared he is taken off the d.e.a.'s leash designated the agency to enforce any federal crime committed as a result of protests over the death the mr floyd on a nationwide basis for a period of 14 days. these moves along with the rampant police brutality i'm sure we witnessed since these protests started clearly show that the powers that be your

shake in their wing tips which means my friends it is a good time to start watching the whole. you want to go on a cd you streets you want to see. the show you wish to see the rises you always stay i'll see a little slice of graves see this least systemic deception is to late show which is some pretty tough job as. welcome everybody to watching the dark side of the world winter and i mean. let's start by going out to minneapolis minnesota and freelance journalist ashley banks who's been covering the mint memorial service for george floyd welcome ashley can you tell us a little bit about the memorial. so i'm here at north central university where the memorial for george floyd took place earlier today the memorial service was not open to the public and the access was extremely limited for the press at least

a 1000 people from the public were in attendance and they stood outside of barricades right behind me and were able to listen and on reverend al sharpton deliberately eulogy i want to read you a quote from him he stated we will keep going until we change the full system of justice and civil rights leader he also deliver eulogies during the funerals for michael brown and eric garner eric garner somebody who died in a similar fashion to george full weight and that al sharpton basically said enough is enough we need to stop jumping from funeral to a funeral of african-americans who have died at the hands of police officers now eric garners mother kevin hart a looter chris and master p. were also and attendance at today's memorial service now masterpiece spoke to the media and he discussed his experiences with the police brutality we all. so spoke out against the media coverage he was saying that some members of the media are showing the wrong parts now meesha we've seen a plenty of video of the looting and fires we've seen lots of on

a loop and lots of p.t. says this is the wrong message and said the media should be showing the positive sides of this global movement now after george floyd's family al sharpton and been jamin crump the lead attorney for the family left the university a peaceful protest in a way took center stage as people shouted george floyd's name and they called on accountability and demanded that these officers not just be charged as they have been but be convicted and sentenced by media. we're going to see you been on the ground in minneapolis for quite some time what is both of your experience attending these protests and speaking with the protestors there. that's right carol i have been here for almost a week now and i've spoken to quite a few protesters quite a few locals and from day one the people of minneapolis they wanted to see these 4 officers charged and now that they've been charged they want to see convictions all

the protests i've attended of course they've been peaceful even the ones that have taken place after curfew the crowds are always diverse and there's a real sense of community here i interviewed quite a few people who said they were willing to risk their lives and the name of justice i remember attending one of the protests there was that as a 4th precinct and the national guard showed up in the law enforcement was there but basically these people were they were peaceful and they were simulating is exactly what george boyd went through when he was dying at the hands of officer derrick show bad but the national guard didn't move and because these people were peacefully protesting what they were saying to me the protesters they're like if they move then we don't care we are here in the name of justice and then we lose our lives so yet. i also want to talk to that. the fact that people are still upset tyrrell people are still upset in the city over to mark clark their upset over philander steel these are 2 african-americans that died at the hands of police

officers in minneapolis and st paul and these officers were not charged or convicted or sentence for their deaths and so this is a big deal for people this is george ford it's again it's not just one incident it's not isolated this has been happening for years and they want to see justice the attorney general has asked the public to be patient during this time he said that it's going to be really hard and challenging when it comes to convicting all 4 officers i was told by protesters they were tyrrell if these officers are not convicted and sentenced then it's going to be a really bad day for the people here in minneapolis back to you tara. great coverage thank you so much for being there on the ground with us thank you. you're welcome. and now to discuss the push to militarize the response to the murder of george floyd in the black watch matter protests as well as the move. to spy on protesters a senior fellow at the center for international policy at the u.s. marine corps veteran of the 2nd iraq war matthew much for coming on out there.

thank you for having me on matthew was a military veteran of the 2nd iraq war which after the initial invasion was really a war of military occupation and policing what makes president trumps push for a militarized response to these protests so dangerous for the american people. well you know. the answer that question is how quickly things can escalate. particularly as you have a number of what overseas we'll call sext you know sectarian groups we have those here in the u.s. and you've seen in a number of cities these self described patriots these militias that are coming out to support the police. we in that's what they're where the danger to me really lies in how quickly this could escalate where these patriots or someone you know maybe

from you know there are there are groups on the left that want to see violence you know how quickly the 2 mixing together escalates things and then it gets out of hand and anyone who was in iraq saw this very. sincerely and very clearly how the violence quickly took off violence that hadn't existed among again what we call sex against among these sectarian groups balancer hadn't existed prior to our invasion but when you have a catalyst when you have innovation and when we then have an organization like the u.s. military so that comes in in plays favorites picks winners and losers so we're going to pick the shia over the sunni in iraq if you have that in the united states which is what you do because you know nobody with that with the honest face kids you know or an honest voice can see that these peachtree are groups are not aligned with the police you know so that's where for me it's really dangerous how quickly it can

escalate how things can get out of control and on the other side of it how many people there are in this country that want to see things get out of control for whatever reason and then you know if the top it all off where you have men not just like donald trump but say attorney general bill barr who doesn't represent the right wing if they're seeing this now it's his chance to establish. long want did desires to control things or to put people back in their place and yeah we are we're very much on a knife said here i. don't want to be hyperbolic but i do knowing what i've seen overseas. you know how quickly things can escalate yeah we're on a knife's edge. to agree with you matthew on the elements of escalation that we're currently facing and it's actually a good time into this next question in a controversial new york times opinion piece in us the nerd tom cotton writes one thing above all else will restore order to our streets and overwhelming show of

force to disperse detain and ultimately deter low breakers the insurrection act authorizes the president to employ the military or any other means in cases of insurrection or struction to the last matthew why do you believe so many of our politicians like cotton and president trump are so quick to jump on a military solution for this domestic issue. it's power i knew tom cotton in afghanistan actually and then in 20092010 him and i did the rounds on me in the war we were on larry king together you know fox except. when he ran for office he was suddenly a different person i mean he had conservative views he had. you know he thought a military solution in afghanistan was possible except for things i disagree with but he wasn't this. you know the this. i'm struggling to find the right words for how much of a cretin he has become you know in

a sense where he reaches for just like donald trump the lowest common denominator where he reaches for the easiest pieces where he recognizes that if i can do only good violin need 37 percent of the american public to support me that's the 37 percent i'm going to play to and so that's what cut tom cotton like many people in congress on the right and the left i mean you can criticize certainly the democrats right now for not doing anything i mean nancy pelosi makes a speech holding a bible then she makes as big theatrical show where she sits down to read the bible she says speaker of the house she can do a lot more than read the bible you know the same thing to look at the instance in the york it's all under democratic administrations bill de blasio defending the police there you know that's because these politicians regardless of which party they are are concerned about holding on to power or building more power and so i think you see that reason right and left that's why i think the notion that somehow things are going to change by just basically reforms or people signing petitions or

by voting except is really a folly because you know it is his you know insurrection act is you know something that people are discussing quite a bit now because president trump wants to use that to send the army in and i suggest people go back into even go to wikipedia page and look that up and see how often the. us military was used to control the population wish to get threatening the established power you know it was used quite a bit against the labor movement in the early 20th century and then it was used you know in and a couple cases actually was used against established a power by dwight eisenhower and john f. kennedy to help desegregate schools but the other times it's always been used as a way to down any threat on established power and so i really urge people to recognize that you know this is nothing new and these protests are

nothing new and the threat of military force against them is nothing new and the reality is is that we need to change you know it's cliche but we need to change the whole system i couldn't agree with you more about that i think that's where really starts on the guts what a lot of people are missing when they're kind of see in the protests right now is they don't understand that it's the entire system it's not just taken down a few statues in the south matthew thank you so much for coming on and illuminating our audience through these issues always a pleasure sir. thanks guys. all right everybody as we go to the break remember you can also start watching the hawks on demand through the brand new portable t.v. app which is available on all platforms definitely check it out all right coming up can the united nations actually help change the united states oppression of its black and brown status of black lives to produce believes it might be able to do that for freeman joins us next to talk about that state through watching the.

she will be no use to you. at the. moment. but you. immediately. get to. the point.

yes well. welcome to max kaiser. yanks this is what happens to pensions in britain. as a report. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics or business i'm showbusiness i'll see if that. has changed american lives the pharmaceutical companies have a miraculous solution. based drugs the people who are chronic pain patients believe that their prescription is working for them and the remedy he said to. price

it that it was their dependency and addiction to opiates to long term use that really isn't scientifically just now study actually suggest that. the long term effects may not just be the absence of benefits but actually that they might be causing long term. the united states has long been viewed as the human rights police of other nations all other nations not only calling out human rights violations abroad but staging or working behind the things to overthrow regimes for their abuses but those living in glass houses probably shouldn't throw stones the recent murders of black people like we on the taylor. and george boy by police officers an armed vigilante justice

thinking for the millions rightfully sparked outrage and fed up leading in understanding or looking at the policies that have nurtured the environment for racism and white supremacy to grow president trump demand it lethal force against protesters. when the looting starts the shooting starts famous words from trump but for blacks like my grandmother who lived through the civil rights movement these words were new or original bull connor popularized them when thinking dogs and water hoses on protesters seeking to in jim crow they were also used by miami police chief walter headley in 1067 as he advocated for radical racialized police policy targeting young black and brown people segregationist george wallace also used the phrase during his 168 presidential campaign from slavery and reconstruction to the formation of the k.k.k. and jim crow to present day horrors of police brutality and systemic racism blacks have endured human rights violations for well over 400 years call for justice into

racial discrimination just keep getting louder the united nations is being called on now to step in where our government seems to continually fail here tell us more is not the freeman from the black alliance for peace welcome to. thank you for having me. the history of human rights violations in america is that asked the un has several bodies that been designed to protect human rights of african and black people because of the genocidal conditions facing our communities why do you think republican and democratic administrations haven't really utilized. all. of that so usually one they don't they do utilize maybe not these particular bodies but the you don't trust the the united nations to vance's imperialist aims again so the countries with the claim the i'm sorry the claims that other countries are violating the human rights of their citizens and to justify their ability to go in

and intervene in these countries but this country is founded on human rights violations that continue their worst persist ever since leaving the indigenous people very sorry sorry about that. indigenous people and also to save and of african people on and so the the the peak the perpetrators of these violations are the agents that are here to uphold of the order of white supremacy and capitalism in this country and so they can't go to those bodies because it would mean. having to address the fundamental aspects of this country the foundations of power in privilege on the on the previous segment we had a gentleman talking about power and why some of the power being the motivating force behind some of these things which i agree however we have to look at what the nature the fundamental nature of that power we have to identify it and oppose it and those those just white supremacy in capitalism and patriarchy and these are the

foundations of this country the democrats and the republicans are basically 2 birds with 2 wings on the same bird that just carry out the maintenance of this country the american exceptionalism and the facade of what's country stands for but only in different ways but one seems to be more like the iron fist in the gulf of. mexico i want to ask you to c m m m s n b c fox over and over again all their talk about is how would the police policy that need to be changed to see equity in things about marriage or. is there really is police perform at this point truly a lost cause i mean is there anything that we can change without just you know ripping out the entire system of policing in this country and starting fresh. no there's not but i think some of the what should be informed the policies because

you're also seeing things like defund the police and things like that to sound very radical a lot of people are saying they even have it on fox news which makes 2 issue really have us pause well what really should inform the demand. so we have which also means the campaigns that we can take up our is that the radical the dishes of the people most impact within the black radical tradition we had like that the panthers and the you know and the ram and union union movement they had campaigns calling for community control over the police which means the communities that are being curtailed and occupied by these occupation forces get the that the democratic right the human right the self-determination to decide to hire fire determine the priorities the duties of these these forces are determine the consequences if they they do something wrong the repercussions of something wrong these are things that we can actually call for and when in fact the better than the history of the black

panther party in california they put it on the ballot and that of having all officials who invariably fail us when we vote for them we can vote for ballot in just 2 says and referendums although they will of course pass those things with us because it's the more power shifting type of demand that we can actually find for and in fact just in 2016 and it wasn't the last the 1st time the u.n. united nations working group of people of african descent experts of people of african descent came on a fact finding mission to the united states to look at the us the human rights situation of people of african descent here and upon seeing a whole host of the normal violations the characteristic violations we talked about what among the recommendations was community control over the police and so these are things which actually answers the creatures question that they really they won't you know abide by these things without

a struggle but we can if we will if we actually align ourselves with the international solidarity and movements and take our things up to the higher bodies like united nations and some redress not to. they will automatically jump in there but with pressure from below and in the mass pressure and general solidarity you can actually force the power play at them in ways that will we'll see some change and i believe that will happen. next after years upon years of promises made him promise broken and naturally weary black population in america how do you think the you win can work to establish trust in the system and dismantle decades of oppression and human rights violations. so i don't think it's more us using the un to do it that we do with them that they are really maybe a mechanism that we can take our grievances to and also our our.

you know our situations to our circumstances to internationalize this struggle to put pressure on international pressure on the on the bodies on the powers that be those things have can work i mean of that sort rankly why they almost at the attack malcolm x. and and dr king because of their their ability into not just them but their movements and organizations they were to internationalize the struggle so for us we've got to have some more concrete demands more formidable demands that are not subject to co-optation like community control of the police the community can control in general of the community i mean the human right to health care right now we're seeing just as many people i mean so many people are dying and particularly african people people of african descent from the covert 19 pandemic but they've done a interesting job of focusing on a person who tragically died but who others are tragically dying regularly and then even when it has hands of the police it won't be this one person and there will be

many more but they focus on one and have bring all the clergy in the in the blacksmith's leadership class in the in the celebrities to come in and make it a big show of passive. isn't to quell what dr king called the voice of the on her right so the voice of they were on heard is what dr king called but they criminalize and they these classes help them criminals but we have to come together and not criminalize anyone and have them want to be on the mend and make a united front of organizations that we most certainly do not always a pleasure having you on and educating our audience as you always do ma'am thank you so much as always sir thank you. all right everybody that is our show for you today remember in this world we are definitely not told we love them enough so i tell you all i love you i am to roll into nomination keep on watching all those hawks out there and have a great day and night and stay safe. you

can't be both with me yeah you like. destruction of nature is connected to these things and. that's when there's

a lesson. we need to be listening for us we're going to repeat this over and over as you continue just for the last well placed and we showed you these things these . this is where they came as were 4 books that the just. the everybody used. cocaine you can smoke this is worse like 1530. 20. 2 this is about a 15 people smoke this one figures. you can find these drugs in any city in the united states. long as you want to get it about to. make money. that's one of the.

54 jets and more than 1300 military personnel are headed to air force base in alaska where is that to say come on i'll show you what's the reason for any type of enhanced u.s. military presence in this area rush up. what is it suddenly about the south china sea that makes it so that it 11000000000 barrels of oil. take a look at this map who really owns what kind of says no it belongs to us india says no we claim that that belongs to us both of these countries have nuclear weapons capabilities there is reason for concern so that's why we're going to drill down on this story for you today right here on the news with rick sanchez where you know as

we always like to say we do believe by golly it's time to do news again. well coming up us from around the world live from central london this is on to u.k. . but lives much of protests continue in london as well sorties cover up statues under threat of vandalism we hear from a continental ledge victim a partial police treatment. the u.k. economy shrinks by 20 percent in april the steepest slump since records began and as businesses are forced to close. not essential shops for pleasure i printed in the u.k. on monday after 3 months of long down i made fears that to meet a social distancing could severely hit businesses we hear from a medical expert. and campaigners call on the u.k.

government to give a timeline for when all dangerous clogging will be removed from the buildings ahead of the grand felt our fire anniversary as a survey finds people's mental health is deteriorating as a result i'll be talking to a man behind the study. that climbs massive protests continue in london this friday calling for greater justice for britain's black community it's the latest in a wave of demonstrations sparked by the death in the us of unarmed black man george for it while in police custody as prime minister boris johnson urges people to stay away from future protests which he says have been infiltrated by unsavory elements were joining me from the protest in london's hyde park is already you case. is i thank you for joining us what's the latest from where you are there in the park. where this protest has been going on for about an hour here in the hard park these

protestors very peaceful atmosphere people are currently listening to speeches are being given there also listening to music there's been lots of education. goes on if you will but of course these protests this person has moved forward to today and the one that was scheduled to be held tomorrow was canceled because there is a planned demonstration by far right groups who begins. to defend what they say is the war memorials on the sunday talk but also the winston churchill statue which has been dogged in graffiti in previous protests with some graffiti saying listen churchill was a racist pointing to his history and what they say is links to crimes in india in kenya and afghanistan however to try and minister boris johnson took to twitter to defend winston churchill's legacy saying that he was a man who played a great role in defeating the fascism of nazi germany and also saying that those

acts of vandalism all those acts of criminality don't represent the overwhelming majority of the black clubs not some movement. what's happened with these these demonstrations is that a tiny minority or a growing minority unfortunately have hijacked and they are using them as a pretext to attack the police to to cause violence and to cause damage to public property so my unforeseen my message to everybody is that for all sorts of reasons they should not go to these demonstrations and whatever our feelings about the cause we should not support a demonstration that is you know probability looking at what's happened before going to end in deliberate and calculated violence. well listen to me so what is the government doing in reaction to this. well we've seen or heard from the justice

secretary robert buckland on the home secretary pretty put cyle who are both taking a front role in trying to combat what they say of violence and acts of. it was infiltration if you will into the protest movement and projectile saying that anyone who's part of the black side not the movement who doesn't gauge in the type of credit criminality they want them to be tossed a truck for prosecution they also want the sentence to be given for assaulting police officers to be doubles and i do want who's found to be assaulting either the police or any other emergencies. because it will be given a 2 year prison sentence we have seen images in the past few days of people in hackney attacking police officers and so for that reason that sparked this reaction was pretty well but others say that she's just using this as an excuse to toss more

crackdowns on people's ability to protest and also accusing her. home or office in general of the racism saying that they haven't applied this type of change in rules and laws when we have seen those awful bunch of far right groups marching through the streets and in that case as well that's talking to police stations and police officers. a set high pocket you very much indeed. and i'm now joined by putting to you barry he claims her nephew faced brutality at the hands of the metropolitan police shooting thank you very much for joining us could you take us through what you say happened. ok so all i say happened last week friday my nephew went trees mother's house on the borders of lewisham and greenwich about cause it's a tale to be japanese daughter's art or he has spent the day at work now it was in his mother's house he had a little bit of a commotion outside of the house where he had left his younger brother are and

a couple of friends when he got out he realized that there was a territorial police van in the road and he went over to ask them what seems to be happening. the response that he got from him was at most polite and they got into some sort of debate he then asks them could he away from they when they seen simply changing him in to get his mobile phone out of the car now while he seemed to in the beginning having a decent conversation with one of the officers another officer when he was across the road detaining the brother came across the road and told him he had to wait for the mobile phone and he waited a little while and insisted again he wanted to get his mobile phone now i don't know whether it was the fact that he was insistent and the fact that he was holding him if a no good reason i would say things went from strength to strength and very quickly

he was being detained he was. and being very polite in the video that we will say. these polite conversation very quickly got heated where my nephew was then being a c.s. gas he was being pushed and punched in cheat by several officers and still he ended up on the floor he was c.s. gas in his face once he was on the floor and all the time the family kept saying to him he is a. must stop for a while he was saying i can't breathe i can't get any way ending with pay any attention to this now this reminds reminds us very much of the george clooney situation so as you just said you know he said. for me to explain seeing what we said happened we have actually got quite a long footage of what we say happened according because i don't look at me to say

the pictures there as well if you're talking as well chris what was your nephew or kid stuff and why were the police there did they say why they were there right well that's very interesting they didn't say that he was accused of anything. it was seems to be. a black boy is a stand in between the 3 very decent cars are all of a sudden i don't know they don't know where the police came from now one of the interesting things are is that is a road borders on grain each aleutian and it is a very quiet road my family has lived in the road for more than 20 years and we never seen a little of police in him arrowed they didn't arrest him eventually they arrested him on suspicious all suspicion of possession of drugs they took him to the police station he was interviewed and knows their rash. it got

to the point where they couldn't prove why you had detained him they couldn't prove why he had been kicked and punched on the street and to me is all police officers should wear but he can play was very interesting that up into a certain point there but he can work but by while he was. on the road lying on the road been say this gas with officers literally sitting in these chairs the c.e.o.'s camera no longer worked hard and we've all got a list of comments on the video that we're showing with it as a set you can say well you. we're talking and they have to get back to us about that but let's look at it from their point of view in these tense times where we're saying what's happening they would argue that they were simply doing their job what do you think they were simply doing their job because. if you can see my nephew is in. he's gone he's well over all he has just come from what they were standing outside in and listen to issues street there was no. animosity there was

no loud noise there was no no loud music they were not confrontational until the police when used in watched the video or the 1st encounter of my nephew with him what you see him saying is can you stop the police what you put in at me even as he gets down on the floor he'll hear you saying can you stop the police now i mean what we've seen recently as you said is a. black lysimachus marches and we saw in the instance and in hackney yes they say we saw with the young black boys and the police what i will say is that ben are italian police is attitudes towards that make it right but i am now saying these officers almost killed my nephew does not also make it right is they're going to use newsgroups hollandse all black young men brutality against the police officers but then i will say it was a police officers brutality against

a young black man and he was fooled least 20 of the last 3 things you know all the young men in hackney there was not more than about 10 of them what is it. they were just doing their job sorted i'm afraid i have to leave their code and every thank you very much thank you. coming up after the break. non-essential shops all set to find the open the doors on monday off to over 2 months of locked out of a pub space so short distance in the rules may affect business week if a medical expert. and activist call on the u.k. government to remove all dangerous cutting from buildings ahead of the grenfell tough guy on a 1st rate becomes a survey finds people's mental health is deteriorating as a result i'll be talking to a man behind the study. economics

is called the dismal science for reason it is often imprecise in almost always open to see what you want to see in many ways to do nomics remains an armed robber in the mix situation it all now is much more than about our politics it's about the way we live through this and foreseeable future marley witnessing the recovery is so what trying to become. one almost show small seemed wrong when all the roles just don't call. any new world yet to shape out these days to come out again and in again tremendous equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we

choose to look for common ground. no pride. no shots. actually no. i. don't know. which your thirst for action. the u.k. economy has seen the biggest slum since records began according to figures revealed by the office of national statistics data shows the gross domestic product dropped by over 20 percent in april alone almost 10 times more than the previous biggest for it followed

a fall of just under 6 percent in the month of march well she longs combined have seen the economy shrink by around a quarter experts say the dramatic drop is due to the impact of street slowdown restrictions when the next hour i'll be joined by an economics expert to discuss the u.k.'s financial crisis as the global pandemic continues or non-essential shops are preparing to open their doors again on monday after over 2 months of lockdown amid fears this may be too soon on to u.k. shot it ever stashed he reports. so i can confirm today that retail outlets which have been required to be closed will be able to open the doors again from monday the 15th of june. when it comes so high street shopping try before you buy has become a long distant memory during the coronavirus lock down 3 months on and the government thinks that reopening shops might provide a much needed boost to the economy there are concerns not just of what the new normal my looked like but whether or not it's safe to take the step forward the how

to indicators are all that telling us that it is too early to lift the lockdown the issue is people will come into the shops but they would also mingle and rude and after the shops and this is where all the shops may be a safe place the process of going to the shop and then coming back home and in between are all risk areas unfortunately i think case numbers will inevitably go up under these circumstances so how my staff and shoppers be kept as safe as possible and what might the high street now look like well that to meet a social distancing role is still in place which many in the industry say simply won't work in the hustle and bustle of everyday retail some stores though are planning to supply things like hand sanitizer on arrival some will insist on masks although none of these are a legal requirement with clothing retailers shoe shops and even book stores planning to quarantine stock up to 72 hours if anyone touches it obviously times

are hard retail companies a moment might come on what they can to accommodate a lot of them bring the staff members back at one time they're doing it in groups of people the managers have been around and everyone's on the floor to make one way system they've got clean stations as well they are being given drugs face shield which go through the top of your head so the bot just underneath each him which i think is really great considering other companies have not provided. i'm happy to get back in into work and start working hard again the near normal isn't just about behavior but what stood out one study estimates as many as whole for retailers could fall into administration by the end of the summer clothing sells it down by a 3rd well known food related items in general don't buy as much as half while experts are warning the rebound might not be easy we still see a lot of our retail clients saying but i expect was the end of you and. you have

lost revenue in. business what we now know is not even the government saying it's nation again we're not going to have an immediate because. it's not just a matter of. a matter of whether or not to do so there's a further problem with this brave new world will the public actually want to shop currently that historically high levels of online shopping over 60 percent customers have full new happens and technically the virus is still out there so will they need convincing to get back on the high streets and have been really happy like so you can you can come to a shop and be surrounded by strangers but you can go visit you know if that doesn't make sense and a bit apprehensive about shops opening next week. for a big concern. you have to do to grow and do some shopping but. i'm concerned about safety i'm really looking for i haven't got any solitary soul so it was me saying i

miss. things i think that we're opening to say businesses and businesses are important but i think the government should do more to save these businesses without having to risk people's lives it will be a lot more contact and that's going to increase the chances of getting infected at the same time this good reasons behind it so the new normal on the high street might not be to everyone's tastes but given how fragile the industry was before the lockdown retailers will be hoping that the public gets used to it and quickly check out his stash the artsy london. well the u.k.'s lot dan has doubts the hospitality industry a devastating blow with at least half of all pubs on track never to reopen england or scotland have to separate roadmaps to get the sector up and running england has left the to me to distance rule out in favor of widest spacing between customers with no specific distance required while scotland plans to keep social distancing

rules in place in pubs with the nation's tourism chief warning the rule could stop many venues from reopening due to a lack of space or for more on these plans and i'm joined by frontline health care practitioner dr some of the other well notice and thank you for joining us the to me so role was important at the height of the pandemic but we can't keep it while we're trying to boost the economy at the same time can wait. well i mean there's been recent studies looking at this hour we're not out of the woods yet. and i think we need to be cautious when while we're lifting lockdown there's been a recent study in the lancet 2 it was commissioned by the world health organization that clearly stated that at least one meter distance will stay if ideally you know we should have 2 meters that doubled the safety again and i think if we get too complacent about it and reduce it down to one meter then you know. you know

the average public does not understand what one meter is do you understand what one liter it looks like i've got to say that i do and i'm pretty good at it because i tend to do the sort of r.t.d. had massive a sort of out my arms that wider i'm going to protect me but the point the point is that's true is that also the for whom they don't disagree as well of what it essentially has become a political decision doesn't that it has i mean like you know different countries even globally there's no consensus so china denmark france the same one meter you've got south korea 1.4 the u.s. 1.8 and spain england and canada is 2 meters so. it's very local to decisions but i think 2 meters is a sensible cautious distance to start off with all scotland they're keeping the to the meter or the thing is though it could lead to to search of the pub stay in shot even what once those restrictions are lifted as well that's pretty devastating

for the economy though isn't it. i think we can't separate the public health and the economy at the moment what if we did relax the rules and bolt it down to one meter or remove them completely and we had a 2nd wave of infection had just set 2nd blocked and. that would be much more devastating so i think at the moment i'd agree with the government and say we need to be cautious yes it may affect some pokes. some you know with correct management we could maybe you know with the weather being good they could open the pubs that you know god an accent things like that and keep distancing you could go to the pub with your bubble of friends and family . i think it's sensible then to the world health organization they're only advising

one meter of their. they are but they're saying that it increases minimum one meter it increase the safety increases with you know a 2 to meet this and other countries that they also include compulsory like masks and robust testing and tracing in other countries so just the distance of one meter by itself would not be enough it's also about enforcement as well as it is a 2 meter or enforceable i mean if the rules of stop people shopping for instance or stop going out that's simply be ignored whether. i think that's part of the problem earlier you know when the weather got good you know there were news reports of people in hyde park mixing in not keeping their social distancing and i think if we did reduce it further to like one meter i think that would just make people too complacent to think easy and forcing it with 2 meters then one meter and

a that's what people been hearing his name for a long time that doctors that magaw thank you very much indeed thank you. grandfather campaigners are calling on the government to outline a plan as well as set a concrete deadline for removing dangerous cladding across the country former housing secretary james brokenshire promised to remove combustible cladding from buildings by this month but activists say that over $23000.00 homes across the country are still covered in it it comes ahead of the grand felt fire anniversary on sunday that will be want by a sign a walk to remember those who died in the tragedy meanwhile a survey has found that living under these conditions has affected people's mental health. or around half a 1000000 leaseholders currently live in buildings covered in dangerous materials a survey conducted by the u.k. cladding action group found that 90 percent of those asked felt their mental health had worsened because of their living situation well meanwhile more than a quarter of respondents claimed they have been diagnosed with new mental health

conditions and more than assertive noticed their preexisting conditions have worsened and almost a quarter say they have considered self harm or even suicide. what is that what something is issues are now joined by the man behind the survey paul martin well thank you for joining us how much am i going to happen how is this head on people's mental health it's having a massive impact on people's mental health every day people are living in these unsafe buildings you said just then 9 out of 10 people said that mental health deteriorated because of this situation you've got 7 out of 10 people saying that they can't sleep at night because they've got dangerous materials on on on a building 90 4 'd percent of people say they've got constant anxiety and worry you know that the impact that this is having is immense on people and i think actually as least sogers i know i have i've kind of grown used to living my

life with this huge amount of anxiety and anger about whether i'm going to be safe at night and it's only when you take a step back and you actually look at this states and you realize just how immense a problem this is what we're quite shocked to hear that a quarter of the respondents i mean looking at those statistics are incredible felt they wanted to self harm or commit suicide due to their living situation i think that's quite something isn't it is shocking it really is shocking or are i'm a doctor and so i spend my time trying to help people and one of the things that i've really struggled with with this report and put it together is that i fell entirely powerless i'm and the sad thing and the frustration thing about this situation is the cure is so simple you need to make the building say you need to not pass the costs on to leaseholders and it needs to be done at a pace and you know 3 years on from going fell on sunday we are got 2000 buildings

in the cave that are unsafe and the pace of remediation is too slow there's also the timing as well isn't there i mean that having issue as we know is serious but also the government at this time. having to deal with a pandemic as well and the economy as well absolutely and i want to make it really clear that obviously the coronavirus this is not undermined how how severe that is and and any work that is carried out on buildings we we don't use the one carried out in line with any coronavirus guidelines about safety but let's remember that this is a problem that's been going on for 3 years and i think you bring up the current a virus point and i'm really actually we've learned from the virus just how much of an impact it has on mental health when we restrict people's freedom and so i would challenge anyone who's watching this and can't quite understand where we're coming from asleep so this to put themselves in our shoes and think about

what it feels like to have those freedoms so you know to sell your property move on and do all the normal things in life that we haven't been able to do for the last 3 years and it's when you do that then doesn't become as shocking to understand why the stages are as surprising as some would say we have to leave it that well martin thank you very much and if you thought thank you i will be back with more news at the top of the hour. israel media a reflection of reality. in
