10:30 am
this is the one business show you can't afford to miss i'm sorry on just over in washington coming up the f.c.c. of spatially labels huawei and the as national security threats but what does this mean for 5 well explain with our co-host well for boeing of failing to disclose key information on a safety feature for the 737 that we blame for the deadly crash here we have a show today so let's go and dive right in. the u.s. federal communications commission or the f.c.c. has of fish only does it needed to chinese hong kong companies as national security threats will the 2 companies walk away and have been heavily criticized by the trunk administration for the past several years but this latest doesn't nation is significant as it severely limits access to u.s. government subsidy programs in a statement from a c c chairman the agency says with today's orders based on the overwhelming weight
10:31 am
of evidence the public safety and homeland security bureau has does ignited while way and as national security risks to america's communications networks and to our 5 g. future meanwhile in response the chinese government has issued its own statements about the designation saying that the us is by a lady its own economic principles. made known to do this kind of economic boy by the us it was a boy in our market. the u.s. has advocated for hitting us operators from buying war way. to may not help improve the u.s. cyber security but will have a serious impact on network services. undergrowth areas in the u.s. . joining us now to discuss our boom bust co-host ben swan and chrystia i ben let's let's start with you and let's start talking specifics here now this does it nation it means a wall way and will. not have access to the universal service fund why is that so
10:32 am
significant. yes so just to give viewers an understanding of what this is the universal service fund is essentially a huge pot the the f.c.c. uses to essentially provide telecom service to rural parts of the country areas that are not urban that do not have a lot of access to cell phone towers and those kinds of things and so the universal service fund has about $8300000000.00 in it and then that money is used to essentially pay and subsidize telecommunications companies to go out and make it worth their while to place towers and telecom communications equipment in the areas where it's needed but they might not make a big profit off of it so that's what the point of it is essentially what this this decision says is e.t. in what way cannot be a part of that system as telecom companies they cannot receive any of that money that would go to like of arisan or you know t. mobile sprint they're not able to get that but there's something else it's very
10:33 am
important here because as typical as is typical i should say of so many government initiatives this is one that doesn't take into account a much bigger issue which is that existing towers in these rural communities right now sara have equipment in them that was produced by and built by wa wait or by c.t.e. it's already there under this ruling companies would have to go out and take those towers apart and remove that equipment it can't even be in there at this point so you have created an entire new stepping stone for those communities in terms of possibly losing telecom service at some point right and this is removing up possibly replacing and probably at a much higher expense is what we're probably looking at here kristie the move is obviously a part of a much larger strategy right way which the us has used to target while we've seen the since the start of the u.s. china trade war but most recently secretary of state my pump ale said the tide is turning against weiwei this was after india announced
10:34 am
a could be banned from participating in its 5 g. network rollout is the us war on while we actually working we saw the u.k. and a lot of its allies saying they're going to allow part of their 5 g. network and 2 it. well to giving us full credit that it's worth all is exceeding given india's recent band that would be a little generous because china india as tensions have been on the rise for some time now and things have escalated in the latest for a clash that left 20 indian soldiers dead so for those that don't know india and china have the world's longest unresolved boundary in the himalayas and for some time now they've got a good record of resolving these tensions to ensure that it doesn't spill into conflict but this time around in need is building a strategic road on the territory to connect the region to an airstrip which china is objecting to so this dispute compound that with the economic stress caused by the corona virus which many are still pointing to china for as likely force the indian government to adopt a strategy very similar to the u.s.
10:35 am
to potentially retaliate in a way that could hurt china and that would be banning their crown jewel huawei from its networks so right now currently india's biggest network reliance used samsung for its 4 g. networks and the other 2 players bharti airtel and vodafone degassed has one of the vendors currently makes up about a 3rd of bharti airtel network and 40 percent of that of so this would actually be a significant loss for a.n.z. the government goes ahead and bans them so i say it's really not so much as in europe following the u.s. would lead and blocking huawei it's more so trying to hurt china's influence by banning not only huawei but also 59 other apps including our favorite tech talk and according to a press release these apps have to walk because they are quote engaged in activities which is prejudicial to the sovereignty and integrity of india security of state and public order. but we're seeing this play out in various forms here not just in terms of the telecommunications but in terms of social media like kristie just mentioned with countries like india blocking chinese apps like tick tock and
10:36 am
we chat now they're claiming that they too are these national security threats so it's all together we're against the tech 4 of china's china provides one. other countries follow suit here. you know it's tough to say i think christie is spot on in what she was saying about the you know relationship between india and china and this really has nothing to do with the united states now i can see my phone pale the secretary of state running behind all of this waving a flag and saying see see we did it in fact the u.s. isn't really doing anything because he's actually right about that this is about unresolved issues between china and india having said that there are other factors at play here as well including the fact that you know she pointed out of reliance geo which is the largest telecom provider in india right now they have about 300000000 customers so the entire population of the united states is their customer base in india is one of those companies that is probably very excited about this
10:37 am
idea of banning to talk because somehow to talk as a national security threat to india meanwhile you have a company like facebook that just bought 9 percent of relying go so you have essentially corporate entities that are playing a big part in this and so we shouldn't all be seeing that just because a country like the united states or like india wants to tag the phrase national security threat onto an issue does not mean it's actually an issue of national security many times it's an it's an issue of corporate interests and what those corporations think is good for their bottom line well that's when convenient right i mean we just saw that in mid june the commerce department announced that it was going to move away from the entity least in terms of allowing them to work with companies in the united states to help them create 5 g. standards speaking of 5 g. kristie is this the beginning of the end for a while we in terms of 5 g. dominance they are supposedly in allegedly they say months if not years ahead of
10:38 am
other companies in terms of 5 g. . so i don't think there's a way while we can and will survive but it definitely will slow down because this campaign against holland has cost us billions of dollars and has gone so insane and just prejudiced that it almost doesn't make sense logically and from an economic standpoint in fact an assistant secretary of state literally said last week that washington might be willing to help other countries pay for 5 g. gear from european companies such as nokia and ericsson to a lawyer technologies so that just sounds like plain old dirty tactic like hey i'll pay you to not buy from my biggest competitor so really what needs to be asked is what will happen to the american technology companies that are going to lose their biggest market because this isn't just another escalation in to expect us to be an escalation and not expect china to do anything to retaliate that's just what we've seen in 21000 china will absolutely retaliate if that's the case and america is not in that situation because trump originally said that trade wars are easy to win but
10:39 am
the u.s. has shown that its biggest failure to date was underestimating china in the start who must co-host i just want to show had been and i was just to say i just wish that the u.s. would show and demonstrate the proof they say they have that while way is a compromise system you know before you spend taxpayer dollars paying for other countries 5 g. technology want you show me evidence i think that they have actually got they have it have you know we'd love to see it well let's hope that they will listen and some some time at some point show us who must co-host been swanning christi i thank you for that. it's a long awaited government report from the u.s. department of transportation's office of inspector general released was released on wednesday the report included a summary of events a lead up to the federal aviation administration certification of boeing's 737 max this is the plane that's been grounded from commercial flight since march of last year after the 2 fatal crashes that killed 346 people now
10:40 am
a 52 page document revealed details regarding the certification of that 737 that started back in january of 2012 well the report exposed boeing's failure to disclose some key changes to the jet for more we're joined by i wish to associate communications committee chairman dennis taser dennis thank you so much for being with us today i want to read part of this report early. early in the process boeing included limited information in the initial briefings to f.a.a. on the maxxis flight control software boeing prevented the software as a modification to the existing speed trim system that would only activate under certain limited conditions such cas was not an area of emphasis in a certification efforts and therefore did not receive a more detailed review or discussion between a f a a engineers and boeing we know the failures of these 2 fatal crashes had to do with the cas why was this overlooked. clearly and i'm
10:41 am
a 737 pilot flight of max what this shows is what we've heard all along is that something happened the f.a.a. did not get briefed in did not inquire as to the additional changes at the m.k.s. and added to it by boeing boeing initially had a very light fare system which is described in this report and then they upgraded it and it it actually increase the power and depth of it by 300 percent it was to deal with an aircraft in a different flight regime they actually did not detail the briefs to boeing on what was changed and even worse than that the took their old assumption and said the other one was very small in measure in power so it's the same effect the pilot could deal with that the reality is is that this new system which is what ultimately caused these 2 crashes was developed in f.a.a. the f.a.a.
10:42 am
was not briefed on it and they didn't inquire what this new detail was and that is the failure of the certification system which is actually indorse is this sort of you show me your work you grade it and i trust you so there's that obviously led to serious problems and the other serious issue that report also provides the detail of events that happened between the 2 crashes right and are the f.a.a. was presented with the full picture of how the end has actually worked f.a.a. and boeing they had an agreement to implement some of these recommendations for the end cast off or a fix by april 12 but it was on march 10th one month before that ethiopian flight crashed a result of $157.00 fatalities did the f.a.a. severely underestimate this issue. well the f.a.a. they did a safety assessment and that's the often talked about they expected over the life of this aircraft 15 crashes which is unacceptable it's a catastrophic rating boeing had rating it is just a risk
10:43 am
a concern. so there was this designation of risk and the f.a.a. had already done an analysis so what happened from the time boeing said they were going to fix the m.k.s. to all the time it took they told us boeing told us in a meeting on 20 sums of november and 2018 face to face i was there that they would take about 6 weeks and they would have this airplane fixed it took longer and then the information stream in between then clearly shows that the f.a.a. saw a much larger risk and boeing had not fully disclosed that as you described earlier so we want to know what happened and why didn't somebody raise the flag on us and either get it done earlier or give us information or perhaps even ground your plane prior it's all left those questions are left to us but now we're seeing what actually happened and it confirms many of the items that we have been told had happened all and you mentioned that that boeing really took longer to to fix these issues at the likelihood of saying 15 crashes and we only saw 2 i mean that sure of
10:44 am
a miracle here but boeing $737.00 maxed out is already taking tests they took a test flight for the f.f.a. certification on monday it was successful on its scheduled suit to have more tests this week what's next for the model are we going to see it up in the skies anytime soon and how trusting are people going to be and taking off on these planes. more of their with their passengers why should you trust and we haven't we haven't brought that broke the trust has broken between boeing and to a certain extent with the f.a.a. so the bottom line on a says this aircraft the m.k.s. as to be fixed that's what they say they've done and our understanding is many of the things that we brought up in additional items that they have basically changed the way the young cast operates will see when we see the end result of course certifying it but another critical important part of this is the pilot training and we started out with this they were just going to slap another i pad correspondence
10:45 am
this is after the crash and say hey will brief you on a new. system in the airplane now it we've evolved to a position and some of it is leverage because of the absurdity of the way this thing was originally designed and how much they didn't take into account the pilot reaction so now we actually have boeing supporting simulator training which they were trying to avoid and seen in this report it talked about the cost of simulator training for pilots so it was a a cost issue they were looking at the money on this when they originally developed the aircraft they've come away from that and now we have expansive training materials reviewing we don't know if that is enough but we're evaluating that now and know you can sense there's a little bit of a seems to be another rush to get this airplane going again we've taken our watches off we've never looked at the calendar when it is fixed and we are trained in that airplane is fully vetted and not just by the f.a.a. by about all these other regulators who are interested in calling to question how to make it even better then that airplane will be good to fly and i'll stand at the
10:46 am
cockpit and welcome people aboard and when any ask you know we'll kick out and i will say yes because i know it's fixed but we're nowhere near that right now well and boeing is still expects to have it up in the skies by it by this year they're hoping adding that money that could have been galling into the training of these pilots could have saved hundreds of lives down a stager of the allied pilots association thank you so much for joining us and making time for us today. thank you. time now for a quick break but stay here because when we're return minutes from the federal reserve's june meeting show the fed will keep the stimulus coming for as long as it takes the economy to recover as we go to break here the numbers at the clubs.

highly accommodative policy ahead the fed continues to discuss capping bond yields and strengthening its guidance on where policy is headed members noted that they expected to maintain this target range until they were confident that the economy had weathered recent events and was on track to achieve the committee's maximum employment and price stability goals for more on this we turn to. serve insider and c.e.o. and chief strategist of cool intelligence danielle de martino booth danielle thank you for joining us today. thank you for having me are you surprised at all by by the announcement that came out of the minutes today. no i was expecting the fed to be extremely devenish in its views if there was one bit of surprise it was that it seemed like they might even be looking at targeting a range of unemployment which ended very badly when i was still inside the fed and we decided to do that the fed and it chasing the target and losing quite a bit of credibility because of that but in no way was i surprised today at the at
10:52 am
the depth of the i think that chair powell in recent in recent. testimony excuse me to congress has a nuncio at it very clearly that the federal reserve is going to be lower for longer than anybody has ever seen in the past and they're going to continue to stimulate the economy as long as they can and to until it recovers and he actually did give give this warning on. a hearing on tuesday but the fed has began purchasing corporate bonds e.t.f. on may 12th this was obviously to prop up the credit market in the midst of the coronavirus crisis but since then the fed has become the number 3 holder of the world's biggest corporate bond e.t.f. as well as the 2nd and 5th largest holder of the vanguard short term corporate bond e.t.f. and vanguard intermediate term corporate bond e.t.f. is this starting to look like japan who central planning the u.s. has mocked for the past decade. it is certainly starting to feel that way
10:53 am
especially when you consider that some of the companies that it is it's been buying through these e.t.f. are they have a fortress balance sheets they're in very good shape the fed is theoretically crowding out natural buyers of these bonds who are going going forward to have a very difficult time ascertaining what the market price should be because you've got this price agnostic buyer in the market the fed doesn't care what the what the price of the security is just that they're fulfilling a liquidity mandate that they've set for themselves. that really is outside the original boundaries of the federal reserve act of $913.00 what are some of the repercussions at the fed from the fed becoming that topic is this really going to impact the integrity and liquidity of the markets. well i'm not so sure about liquidity but what it is doing is to your word integrity and what the fed has discovered over the past 5 or 6 years or so is how very difficult it is to extricate itself from these programs we've seen this wish national bank for example
10:54 am
as well as the bank of japan they've been in the e.t.f. business for years now and you could only imagine how cataclysmic it would be if they were to attempt to step back but this is the last thing that you would expect to see in a free market economy where the market is supposed to set prices by stock based on buyers and sellers and supply and demand the fed is really distorting that natural relationship while federal reserve chairman a drone powell and this new chin they presented differing viewpoints of the u.s. economy on tuesdays and their testimony before congress with another round of stimulus the still being debated what aspects did they focus on and what further relief efforts are we going to expect to see or should we expect to see. well i think the onus and that the fed minutes also made this clear i think the onus is pushed back on the fiscal authorities at this point the clock is officially ticking we're inside of the month of july we know that $600.00 in additional weekly
10:55 am
unemployment insurance payments and at the end of this month there are some rental moratoriums that are being lifted in certain states so it is really upon the fiscal authorities are going to come in and provide relief because the fed for all of its mandate of maximizing employment has certainly not been able to do that with 30600000 americans collecting unemployment but in the latest research publication by the e.p.a. one in 10 americans who are out of work will not be getting caught. back to their old jobs this basically means that about 7.2 percent of the workforce have no hope of returning it is this being largely ignored by the market right now. i don't think that the market is appreciating the depth of the permanent unemployment that we're going to have coming out of this crisis we're seeing 40 percent of the economy at at the least as one state after another that's reopened has begun to reverse those efforts and reshut or this is going to put us into the beginning of a w. shaped recovery with the next leg down that will cause permanent unemployment to

stay at elevated levels in this country definitely a volatile time and it will continue to be so c.e.o. of cool intelligence and former fed insider danielle de martino both thank you for joining us today thank you. world of disney is getting into technology many have called unsellable wing or even controversial but it could be part of the future of movie making while disney research studios recently released this video along with a paper showing some high quality deep takes deep fakes are a form of high tech face swapping current technology may be enough for your phone but not for the big screen or a high quality televisions there's no word on what this will be used for exactly however star wars fans will remember carrie fisher brought back to life as princess leia or the late peter couche ing at a grand tarkin using a different face mapping technology well we'll have to watch out and keep an eye on that that's it for this time you can catch boom bust on demand on the brand new

we go to work you straight home. seemed wrong. rowles just don't hold. any new beliefs yet to shape our disdain for the conflict as a kid and engagement equals betrayal. when some many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. thousands of american men and women choose to serve in the country's military.

target whoever is there to prey upon whether that's a man or woman. well coming up to us from around the world live from central london this is r.t. u.k. . scottish 1st minister nicolas sturgeon and u.k. prime minister boris johnson clashed over the possibility that scotland could enforce a quarantine rules on those entering from the rest of the u.k. . course behind the nation independence intensify in the u.k. with support the scottish welsh and even english movements on the rise but one former 1st minister of scotland believes the appetite simply isn't there we hear from him i'm talking to a welsh independence campaigner. the world health organization was the worst of the coronavirus pandemic is yet to come we'll hear from a w.h.o. spokesperson. germany reveals it's helping the u.k.
11:01 am
develop its much maligned coronavirus contact tracing out after months of trials and tribulations but previously concerns remain we hear from the former every i 5 officer. and the government unveils its plans for cost or yes size bottles and mandatory attendance in english schools and colleges this september we talked to an education experts. scotland's 1st minister of the u.k. prime minister already over the possibility of implementing quarantine in scotland but for those from the rest of the u.k. that's a cluster of coronavirus cases have appeared along the border between england and scotland. has more on this hi there shall be a so this is to be a bit of a war of words between boris johnson and nicholas sturgeon doesn't absolutely the
11:02 am
promise of arms johnson and scottish 1st minister nicholas sturgeon are in for old and yet another heated constitutional debate this time over a court. in in scotland so it comes as there is talk of discussion that make us sturgeon may implement a policy which would mean that anybody crossing the border into scotland would have to self isolate for 14 days now when asked directly nicholas sturgeon didn't exactly want to tell her she didn't deny it either instead she said that it would be a policy based on science and medical advice well joining the prime minister's questions boris johnson said a policy on the border would be absolutely ludicrous because in his opinion there is no border between england and scotland but also on the suggestion you still need . no such discussions. with the school to be discreet about it but i would pull drunk tomorrow would you know very well there is no such thing as a border. so that boris johnson using
11:03 am
some quite laugh ish. language but of course throughout the entirety of the lockdown period there's been quite a lot of discrepancies between the devolved nations when it comes to handling the coronavirus pandemic we know that nicholas sturgeon has long been one step ahead of downing street by implementing tougher restrictions when it comes to lockdown so this may not come as a surprise exactly but she does say that the prime minister is trying to politicize a scientific matter. the really very 2 public health challenges that we're dealing with right now from the absurd and ridiculous political statements that i am you know understandably be nice to respond to a prime minister or secretary of state in a government sense is dealing with the same issues i am right now to try to politicize these things is shameful and is unacceptable the governor of new york today and you can find this on twitter has put out information about the at the
11:04 am
states in america from which people going into new york will be quarantined for 14 days no i don't think the governor of new york has been political or constitutional there is just looking at a situation where transmission in new york has been driven in and other states it's much higher so he's trying to protect the people he saves from being exposed to further spread of a virus while nicholas tashan hospital pena because some people find have policy potential crossing quite divisive some saying imagine if we had police patrolling the border that could cause a political ask why i'm not satisfied with the opinion of j. caprice marc has even gone so far to companion to donald trump. and i rode to school drew issues to have a war for how she was modeling also what other leading political figures between england and scotland but as my rudra from the prime minister said there is no border between england and scotland and it was protocol for a border of the tribal kind to be erected stop people travelling freely between the
11:05 am
constituent parts of the united kingdom one never thought that we've lost a lot of model herself on american political figures and want to build a wall meanwhile a cluster of coronavirus cases has now emerged on the border of scotland and northwest england and there has been an outbreak in dumfries and galloway 9 cases around the cretan there in an area the last time there were any positive 1000 cases was on june 22nd and cases are said to be connected so now across border incident management team has been created to deal with this guidance as well at this point is not to travel more than a 5 mile radius from that that you can see on your screen there so all of this then it comes as boris johnson has of course said that the u.k. is not quite out of the words just yet for nicholas sturgeon maybe potentially going through a more cautious route going through the words and slightly more trepidation than her english counterpart did thank you very much indeed. well this comes as there
11:06 am
appears to be a growing appetite for independence on all sides of the political divide and among all the home nations one survey has revealed that support for english independence is increasing for those traditionally in favor of the union. well you got poll on behalf of welsh independents campaigners found that nearly half of conservative party supporters in england are in favor of an independent england and the end of the united kingdom were among the general population of england 35 percent also support independence the survey also found that people over the age of $65.00 were most likely to support an independent england when it comes after a cd a member of the scottish national party claimed scotland could withdraw from u.k. institutions like the westminster parliament if the prime minister continues to reject calls for a 2nd independence referendum m.p. for perth peter wishart said such a withdrawal would allow scotland to hold an independence referendum without the
11:07 am
u.k.'s permission boris johnson has consistently ruled out granting another vote after scotland voted 55 percent to 45 percent to remain in 2014. well for more on the rise of home nation independents are now joined by sean jump in show thank you very much indeed for joining us i mean it is slightly surprising isn't it that there is support for an independent england and among tory voters as well who are traditionally very unionist. yes we're also and always intrigued by this and i think this is the 1st poll we should about that has been done to look into it in the shop suits or english independence i know basically house tours supporters supporting independent and it's a significant minority there and especially outside london who support independence for england and politics is the big. elephant in the no money to some extent it's true he was into a back seat and the way that english the wording doesn't but in this confused by the media here in new katie. maybe see that it's
11:08 am
a sex special being listeners and that's what party specs info but it does show that it's a significant number of people in england. with the end of the united kingdom the new independent way in scotland and england repeats what we say is that most of the support for english independence has come from the older generations whereas it's the polar opposite of the scottish and welsh movements isn't it this is very interesting so the whole support funding independent 'd thing done comes from people over $65.00 young people tend to be on the right to serve to vote as well as instruct in the ways it's the direct opposite people younger support independence but with scotland on tend to be more on the left as different type of movement that if you take but not it's him as well and why these people want independence and people always look at the mess this is creating and i think you know the way this isn't perfect is senator the parliament years imperfect but it was to the better job than that mishandling and johnson and towards the westminster but still we're lumped in with the government because you cannot rule out what you think is cause i

mean you've already mentioned bracks and you think it's also the high nation's response to coronaviruses well i think there's a lot of things going up my bike and should've been the referendum on independence england in 2016 a lot of the bracks and i wouldn't be surprised if you grew to vote for independence england so there's no underlying thing i think partly these are the action to celtic the russian 4 way discussed in the mail and i think there's a feeling within some sections. it's all going the inductor in this nationalities and recognized and i think it is looking good for people to civic inclusive multi-ethnic english nationality which i think needs to be developed before it's been hijacked by the right but there's a lot of things going on. and it surprises me don't like to listen in england haven't picked up on this because i think it could be a very big stink up in the next few years because there will be a referendum in scotland the next few years ireland will reunite some people with us to decide what kind of future with its design people to getting and it's and then just be happy in that kind of english just so they can dig and develop other
11:10 am
and be much yet they're going to be welcoming as it is in england i think what do you think these findings mean for you and for welsh independence i mean does it make any independent wales more likely very brief if you don't mind show yes i mean the course independence is drawing on seeing people every day which i didn't expect what in the dentist and i'll come to depend on because it think we can do a better job and we insist on working cooperatively with our neighbors but doing some things ourselves sean thank you very much indeed for talking to us. well in relation to scottish independence the country's former 1st mr henry mckay she told me he doesn't know which way a 2nd referendum would go. there is a window of opportunity between now and elections in 2021 for labor to rethink its corries policy it does not to support independence and indeed there is no great enthusiasm in scotland for independence clearly the vote has risen but if you look over that the 45 percent result into 14 and if you look at the last 20 years the
11:11 am
last 13 years of course there's been a move towards independence but a lot of scots are not inspired or indeed i warmed by the fact of leaving the union that said school labor party's got to stop being so negative you know if you want to oppose and india restitute that's fine i don't believe there's going to be a vote anyway in the next 4 or 5 years but to do so all the time looks negative it's not a policy it's not a vision it's not a strategy is just negative my it was to try to get the party to reinvent itself not to get principles or values their sound but to accept that scotland is a very different place from what it was in 1997 as the s.n.p. control scotland though in holyrood and westminster another referendum would surely go their way wouldn't it we don't know because if you look at the opinion polls since 2014 nearly 120 of them i think only on one or 2 occasions have they got more than 50 percent who are independent now that doesn't mean to say that independence
11:12 am
can't happen in the future and indeed the antics of boris johnson may help that on its way but it is a reality to save 50 to 55 percent of scots have not yet been convinced that independence is the way forward now this is the window of opportunity for the labor party to reinvent itself to move forward have more scottishness have more independence of thought. the world health organization has warned that the worst of the kovac 19 can demick could be yet to come ahead of the w.h.o. claimed the crisis was actually intensifying and criticised the u.k.'s a response. the organization has praised germany china and several other countries in east asia for developing the blueprint on how to curb outbreaks successfully this includes robust contact tracing by local health officials and delegating lockdown powers to regional leaders however the u.k. has been criticized for its top down approach to the pandemic and lifting its
11:13 am
lockdown too soon but the w.h.o. director general said it's never too late for countries to use all available tools flare ups are to be expected as country started to lift restrictions but countries that have the systems in place to apply a comprehensive approach should be able to contain this flare ups locally and void reintroducing widespread restrictions however we're concerned that some countries have not used all the tools at their disposal and have taken a fragmented approach these countries face a long hard road ahead but one of the lessons of the fundamental good that normal to want situation a country is in it can be turned around. but there i talked to the world health organization spokesperson dr margaret harris she told me that countries with the
11:14 am
recent experience of infectious disease outbreaks know the value of mass testing. sometimes people are thinking that the health of the economy the 2 go hand in hand you know if you're not healthy if you're sick you can't own you can't work so you've lost your financial means on the on that if you don't have a job you may become ill through lack of activity lack of money so we've got to do the 2 together but the key word is be safe we know what stops this the social distancing the hand washing the ensuring nothing at your mouth nose our eyes these things work these things have worked in other countries and that message must be having a home everything we do with are we open close what we do we must ensure that those things happen all the time talking of other countries why do you think the u.k. has struggled with testing and tracing when other countries have been much more
11:15 am
successful. still this has been variable and certainly we did so very very early on i'm sure you remember my director general saying test test test but in ringback countries that don't have a lot of experience of large infectious disease outbreaks quite often just the staff the people the systems weren't necessarily in place in countries that have got so advance medical care usually the health needs were in hospital so there was a lot of reposing a lot of rethinking to do we saw in east asia countries move much more quickly they experienced sellers and most a knew what a virus like this could do was a u.k. complacent though i mean it did dismiss the w.h.o. as test test test advice early on as for other countries not here. a lot of countries did not see it as the as the high priority at that time and that is why we kept on saying do it please do it because we do know that this works and we have
11:16 am
seen countries where it's worked with corning aggressively and quite often the leaders of those countries were ridiculed for for being over overcautious and over reactive but they have shown that their populations can be protected. still to come this hour. germany has revealed it's helping the u.k. develop and grow the virus of contact tracing out after months of delays for the british technology we hear from a fullback and why 5 officers. have the u.k. said you cation secretary says a bubble's will be implemented in schools as part of the government's compulsory back to back plans in september obvious talking to an education expert. people talk about a recession but actually there's

trafficking charges but died in his jail cell while awaiting trial. now germany has revealed it's helping the u.k. develop a coronavirus contact tracing up after months of delays u. turns out false starts germany is that pierces apple and google technology and has been downloaded over $14000000.00 times since its launch in mid june it's reportedly been successful while the u.k.'s app is believed to be months away from being operational and has cost 11000000 pounds so far germany's ambassador to the u.k. address mckayla said his country would be happy to share their technology we spent 20000000 more minutes it works and if this can help the u.k. we'd be very well the last of the opposition lashed out at the u.k. government for its failure to get the promised world beating track and trace app operational in time labor leader sickest omma said that without the app the system simply wasn't working as it should. there's nationwide lifting of prescriptions
11:20 am
this weekend without a nap without clear data from local authorities or the world beating system we were promised last week i pointed out the prime minister that 2 thirds of people with covert 19 are not big breeched and asked to provide their contact details the prime minister typically said it was all a stunning success the updated figures now show that things have got worse be a test track and trace operation is actually reaching a huge numbers of people and causing them to soak isolated in ways i don't think he conceivably could have expected a month ago. when in early may the government announced it was making its own centralised track and trace up that a good privacy activists who back to d.c. centralized model with data held on individual phones germany had ditched a similar centralized plan in months earlier but the u.k. still plowed ahead but it soon became clear the u.k.'s own mid may deadline wouldn't be a mess the government finally trial the technology on the isle of wight just off

the english south coast but the results are still inconclusive by may the 27th the test and trace system was launched but with no app in sight and in late june the health secretary announced a u. turn to a decentralized apple and google version of the amp even said that's had always been part of the plan despite denials from the tech giants themselves well meanwhile northern ireland has announced plans to part of the republic of ireland which would put the devolved nation ahead of the rest of the u.k. a report claims islands up could be ready within days and would involve the sharing of information on both sides of the border. or former m i 5 intelligence officer animation said brits may not be willing to give up their personal data all that easily. governments never let a good crisis go to waste and this is a wonderful opportunity for the government to do a day's grub and to find out what we're all doing who we are where we are who we're talking to what we were thinking our contacts are just lists our employment. and
11:22 am
there's been a lot of evidence that's been juiced that in fact what they're trying to do has no legal transparency even the 1st at they try to bring out in the isle of wight was not put out with the usual tendering which is legally required to companies that met and made $11000000.00 pounds so for them to then say oh let's use another system that's been. in tree. really just fundamentally wrong because of course you know we're looking at directly to where we are going to be out of the e.u. by january next year where we will no longer necessarily be bound under the terms of the g.d.p. our general data protection regulations and this also impacts on what is going on in ireland because if southern ireland is still bound by those terms and northern ireland part of the u.k. is no longer bound by those terms how is a jointly produced going to be effective how will the data be meaningfully protected. the u.k.

education secretary has announced plans to introduce introduce class size or year group size bubbles in english schools and colleges in a bid to get children safely back into classrooms the september. schools will continue minimizing prime time between children including through grouping children together in bubbles and encouraging only to children to distance at a minimum minimum this would mean keeping home you in schools and colleges separate this is in addition to the over protective measures that we know are so important for infection control such as regular cleaning and washing. well governor williamson also announced that from july the 20th nurseries childminders and child care providers will no longer need to limit group sizes according to government plans from september school and college attendance will be mandatory for all children in england the education secretary also stressed the importance of
11:24 am
maintaining covert $900.00 safety measures including offering access to testing for staff pupils and families who show symptoms were exams and are set to resume in 2021 and the government confirmed a 1000000000 pound fund will be made available to help school pupils catch up on lost learning due to the closures it will be added to the 14000000000 pound pot already pledged for schools. or to discuss the government's back to school plans are now joined by education and online learning expert mari morrison mari thank you for joining us and bubbles of school children whenever possible to keep pupils apart from their friends outside their bubble. will be getting seriously can happen i think it will be a challenge of course but i think you know the government is responding to the press to get children back to school do what we can to. encourage that i think the reality retro sense was is going to be extremely confusing but what i hope for what the w.h.o. has been saying i mean it's hard to know what the situation will look like in
11:25 am
september should the government already be deciding all children will have to return by the. i think the government needs to give families and teachers some confidence that there is a plan and that's the aim although in certain cities circumstances we can expect in short plenty of local as lockdowns has flare ups of coronavirus continue but without a plan and a target in place to have children and schools we leave school leaders without any kind of guidance so i think it's a constructive step that i think we have to also be realistic that it may not happen in all cases. you know absence from school is costing our economy our working families and our children an enormous amount so it's it's right that the government is responding to pressure to get children back how is it going to be for children to get back on track with their education after months away. not easy of course and there are certain cohorts of children who would have been disproportionately affected by the absence from school we're going to have the last
11:26 am
few months schools are always in the business of trying to raise attainment particularly children who are lower detainers and they're very good at it so you know everyone would have great confidence in schools to do a very good job on that but the longer they're out of school the greater the job is to be done so that's why i think everyone is on the same cited teachers and government are all very keen to get kids back in school and get going as long as it can be done safely when are you an expert in online learning that can be a long term solution can it. no and even though that's my business i would never say on my solution online learning is the way to learn and i think online learning is a tremendously useful way of supporting what happens in the classroom and for the year ahead hopefully not years ahead while we have the high likelihood of occasional school closures it's going to be absolutely essential for schools to have a robust blended learning strategy of place where if they close down a class or
11:27 am
a cohort of our school for a period of time they have the access to online learning and that and there's a great deal of it you know around now that schools are very adept to using and if there is another ad break could children afford to miss out on even more school. well of course the less they miss the better at particular as i think students in areas of deprivation or students with special education meet are disproportionately affected by missing school by this act of lockdown so we have to do whatever we can to keep to a minimum i think the government is banking on this sort of removed evidence that children are unlikely to suffer from the disease and unlucky unlucky to spread the disease that doesn't really mitigate the risk to teachers but they're taking a gamble to say in the in the overall benefit of the economy of the nation of our children's education we need to get back home in our advice and thank you very much indeed for talking to us. now about this more news at the top of the hour see that

every saying all of our history and right now you know princeton university one of the great ivy leagues where many of the heads of the fed come from by the way and there you find that they have the woodrow wilson school of foreign policy and they've now determined that woodrow wilson was a racist and therefore they got rid of the name so i suggested and the fed woodrow wilson was a racist after president woodrow wilson signed the federal reserve act into law on the evening of december 23rd 1913 he worked which i think will be of lasting benefit to the business of the country so council the fed right council fed council culture news accounts of the feds.
