it was time to sit down. just to tell you you know after britain finally quit the you already people and businesses report being tangled up in red tape in. the u.k. is given the will. of god very little in return that begins in the me it's just going to be traveling and really not feeling like i am a european. spiration even suicides a french restaurant owner tells us about the appalling plight of people in this sector as the economy collapses amid fresh curfews and. it was my neighbor who lived right in front of my house had a restaurant for 2 generations during the 2nd lockdown everyone had to close again but some roadside restaurants were authorized to open and as she was not on the

list the next day she hanged herself. in minneapolis riots after another fatal shooting by police is the same city where officers killed george floyd whose death in may is still sparking rallies across the country. hello there are to the weekend for a good day from moscow and me kevin 0 in this saturday the 2nd of january i'm here for the next 30 minutes with the latest for you great to be company 2 so britain britain officially quit the e.u. just a day ago but already it seems it's hitting roadblocks sometimes quite literally trucks bound for europe are being turned back with the wrong paperwork and many remain there's a reading refusing still to accept the block is finally absolutely out of the now

so the reports. and so began the downswing new age of an independent britain and my goodness was it tasty starting 2021 with a lovely bridget breakfast of to 14 years of wed to bliss the u.k. is out on its own we saw the fust ferry leave britain's shores cross the channel and dock and kalai while the lorry to enter the euro tunnel off to midnight might have been given a friendly go ahead for others trying to cross from wales and i meant it wasn't such a pleasant the new wealth has been quiet and wholly had so far today the port authority indicates that 6 freight loads arlen's have had to be turned away do not have the correct references but being nearly bogged down in red tape isn't the only thing dampening the spirit regret and bits and the support to keep me strong in scotland

with a majority feeling that they'd be better off brussels. scotland will be back soon europe give the light on some would say this is the 1st stage of grief denial but with support for scottish independence rising by the day and hitting 58 percent in recent weeks there's now a fear that breaking with brussels might well cost the u.k. its 300 year union with scotland so bracks it is might be revelling triumphantly in their newfound independence now but there won't be any victory laps when they're left with a divided kinda no wonder than the people are nervous about the road ahead i would say as a young person my focus is mainly being on money travelling europe and education and that opportunity might be taken away from us very very soon the u.k. has given the will our. son got very little in return it's just going to make life

a lot were complicated the biggest impact for me is just going to be travelling and really not feeling like i am here anymore i feel like that's been kind of ripped away. while some a novice others just can't and that the pasta go in fact they want to rewrite the campaign for britain's rejoined europe starts at midnight. in the meantime hundreds of thousands are hoping the e.u. will forgive them and hand on a pity passport while others have gone to extremes during a deep dive into family archives praying that they can find some long lost friend job an italian it really doesn't matter a great great aunt 3 times a year or 2 may have never met but who might well be that lifeline to visa free travel if i understand it correctly i am french my mother was born in france her mother was totally french as was her grandfather so for me it is about reclaiming

what i already have and that makes me very happy i will always be a european that's for sure nothing like. father jumping ship to instill confidence in these uncertain times but boris isn't too bold that in fact he's wrong but pleased with himself this is an amazing moment for this country we have our freedom in our hands and he's up to us to make the most of it while it might be a freedom fountain of boris's hands but as restlessness disillusionment and division and britannia grow there's a sense that the only thing britons are left holding on empty promises from trickle to $26000.00 new cases of covert on new year's eve the highest rate since november the government's responded by the night curfews. we don't want to implement a nationwide or local lockdown who have we will propose an extension of the curfew

which instead of starting at 8 pm will start at 6 pm in all the regions where it's needed is some cities or regions where the incidence rate is above the maximum alert level these measures will be implemented from generally 2nd 2021 aside from the curfews bars restaurants from closed of the festive period it extends months of restrictions that have taken a devastating toll on the hospitality industry restaurant owner vince somalia described to us the desperate state some people are in and how his neighbor was even driven to take her own life. yes so i've been living in la trinité so for 16 years i have 12 hotel rooms into restaurants we serve from 40250000 per year we employ 12 people during the winter period and around 22 people during the summer period so being suddenly left without work for 5 months is not easy our commune is special ised and selling local products seafood we produce

a lot of fish there are no more events there are no more buses there is nothing and on top of that we are closed in terms of health i took antidepressants i took center i throw up every morning i don't sleep much and i don't sleep well and i think i'm not the only one in this position among people i know there was my neighbor who lived right in front of my house who had a restaurant for 2 generations she survived the 1st lock down she was 36 years old she had a roadside restaurant it was an establishment that everyone knew and appreciated during the 2nd lockdown everyone had to close again but some roadside restaurants were authorized to open and as she was not on the list the next day she hanged herself if you want a morbid detail it was her 11 year old son who took her down from the noose a terrible thing to have to do were the poll from a french socialist think tank suggests a quarter of all our trade is usually after seeing their income plunge have

considered suicide and for those who've lost their jobs the numbers even higher the french economy has already suffered double digit falls by the spring when the 1st slowdown came in but business is doing non-essential were hit much harder still with the hospitality sector contracting 50 percent and the problems remain despite president government pledging support for companies in trouble again breaks down the terrible effects of the crisis on workers and their families. that's for me. if you want to close bars and restaurants that don't follow protocol that's fine but on the other hand most of my colleagues have scrupulously respected all the rules that have been imposed on us and today there is no study which proves that restaurants are a source of infection when you see people crowding in the subway i don't understand why there is less danger in supermarkets or in the subway than in a restaurant i didn't take

a salary for 6 months so ultimately i paid to work luckily for me and my wife we've put some money aside we've put it aside but it melts like ice cubes in the sun so inevitably it makes us questions we wonder how it's going to be tomorrow if we'll be able to pay the rent if we'll be able to pay for the car if we'll be able to pay for the kids' school especially when we know that business owners and friends have no direct help at christmas my children told me daddy don't give us presents will sell all our toys instead to earn money to have food. coverts imposes so many lives some for the french hospitality trade we're talking about the french wine makers who've also got other pressures too right now they are furious about a huge spat between us and e.u. played makers that's left great grow is pay vast new tires will explain with us all of just a bit. but this next just months after the police killing of george floyd in

minneapolis sparked vast nationwide protests the city's raging again dozens have been held in rallies over the fatal shooting by officers on wednesday night authorities have released body come footage of the incidents warning what you're about to see you may find upsetting. the. took place outside a gas station when police were trying to arrest a felony suspect the victim's been identified as 23 year old. his parents who a somali immigrants say this summer was just sitting in the car and that police then later raided the family home however another story from the offices they say the suspect opened fire from his vehicle. by view of the video in the pool area information that also mention that a witness saw the individual fire 1st at the officers my officers were reacting to

that deadly threat should the officers not react in a deadly force situation and knowing that community members lives were at stake as well the officers are trained to protect the community members lives and their own . life is protests took place near where george floyd was killed in may here's a recap of how police brutality demonstrations to develop that in the last year. was.

on his kind of moping looks at how the massive rallies that are still happening across america spog floyd's death being seen as a turning point in the country's history. for just a minute we'll roll back to 2017 in charlottesville. news flashes of a battle between leftists and white supremacists hether higher killed when a right winger over rammed his car into a crowd of left wing activists

a police helicopter crashing and killing state troopers street clashes and violence that shook the world. the year is 2020 and there is nothing more common than the sight of angry crowds and burning cars it's almost routine you've got right wing groups like the proud boys or the patriot prayer who clash in the streets with masked communists or anarchists under the label of and it's far from peaceful people get stabbed people get shot this summer many were horrified by the brutal killing of george floyd at the hands of the police. let's say. for.

the battleground a message changed black lives matter protests rocked the country the national guard was called up it was chaos in the streets. how many people died from clashes between protesters and police during 2020 the us media has not really focused on giving us specific body counts in detroit wisconsin and tennessee protesters were shot and killed on june 12th yahoo news listed the name of 12 officers from low. will and federal agencies who were killed during the protests as the year went on more incidents came and more deaths were counted in july donald trump made a point of sending federal officers to portland oregon to crack down on the protesters who were sending law enforcement support and was totally out of control

the democrats and liberal democrats run into players and no idea what they were doing they made a point of abducting protesters covering their faces and i'm sticking to engage local officials opposed drums move and on july 30th they struck a deal with the feds to back down november and a contested us presidential election from supporters poured out into the streets of washington d.c. and other cities leftists came out to confront them. the young. there was a time when average americans viewed protesters as fringe and crazy in 168 richard nixon won the presidential election saying he stood for a silent majority that opposed peace marchers and civil rights activists and was

disgusted by growing unrest but that america is long gone protests which often turn violent seem pretty normal these days so whether the issue is white supremacy police brutality contested election results or declaring autonomous zones americans now seem far more willing to engage in politics and in violence or both 2020 may be looked back on as a turning point in u.s. history a lot more often are to the new york. historian gerald holmes says international attention on black victims in the u.s. does have an effect. i would concur it to what happened in april $968.00 in the united states after nobel laureate dr markham to king jr was killed at that particular moment you had demonstrations and we're up to there is another aspect of what's happening today that in a sense does. not mean the demonstrations global if you look historically at the

struggles of black americans what you'll find is that one of the ways we've made progress on the path is because de mint a national solidarity and so that gives me hope for the future one of the problems with their leader there decentralized and that is a direct result of the fact the clever black people don't follow a centralized political we're going to zation such as the black panther party in the 1960 s. the government comes out their leaders and puts them into scenario and kills them and so therefore in the end they have been used to have not only you know people just spontaneously come to the streets now i understand that and but what that does is it makes it difficult to plan it makes it very difficult to channel that energy into politics. this is all it's international life for russia thanks for watching this weekend coming up in off the break amongst the stories we're covering is ready

welcome to the kaiser report 1st of the new year's day see we got an excellent deal nice christmas lights adorning the set i mean you know i took the money i saved i bought that's all right time now to turn to peak or is the editor over a crack and he's also an advisor been going back to. the us a slaps major tariffs on e.u. products in a tit for tat move explaining the decision to trumpet ministration accused europe of overreacting to the previous round of washington's penalties. the e.u. made another tourist that unfairly increased the amount of ruto ation the u. needs to take some measure to compensate for this unfairness so the latest u.s. levies target aircraft parts and alcohol they come after brussels put taxes on

$4000000000.00 worth of imports from america and those in turn were a sponsor to u.s. charges on $7500000000.00 in goods at the core of this dispute is washington's long running claim that europe is unfairly subsidizing aircraft maker airbus giving it an unfair advantage than over u.s. rival boeing responding to the latest salvo from the white house brussels accused of undermining current efforts to solve the dispute. the us action unilaterally disrupts the ongoing negotiation between the commission and u.s.t.r. to find a settlement to the long lasting aircraft disputes you can take the position that all this tariff hike policy is sort of a personal vendetta by donald trump against the europeans i personally do not share that view my reading is that this is a sign of an overall return of protectionist policies that he days of the free

international free trade and the multi-layered reformers are over and i see this less bound to or a president in the us then to this general trend tariffs are always damaging for producers and customers both so i see this the overall significance of the decision i see less intimidating in the wish to demonstrate somebody but give a clear sign by the us that the future will be not as the past wars and the word to. america 1st survive his presidency french officials warn those sanctions could cost his wine industry more than a $1000000000.00 euro to now. head of the country's independent wine producers federation is aging process to end the playmakers to spew warning it's spreading to other sectors. for the last few years the revenue of independent

us wine producers which takes 1st place in the value of x. or it's of our product has dropped by nearly 200000000 euros today we are suffering because of the mistakes of the 2 aircraft manufacturers american and european this of course is totally on just because people working in our industry didn't do anything wrong with our industry didn't deserve such a punishment nevertheless our sector is paying the highest price i think france is about to lose from 502700 1000000 euros net return on this market it's very important to get out of this taxation system and urgently adopt a resolution that will abolish all of those taxes imposed by the e.u. and us that way we can avoid the constantly rising tension and economic instability connected with geopolitical interests so use a brief around the world party goes torched a police car and hold stones and bottles at officers who tried to break up
