so began the downswing new age of an independent britain and my goodness was it tasty starting 2021 with a lovely brick sit breakfast after 14 years of wed to bliss the u.k. is out on its own we saw the fast ferry leave britain's shores cross the channel and dock in kalai while the 1st lorry to enter the euro tunnel after 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 bound for our land 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 post-breakfast spirit regret and bitterness a particularly strong in scotland with a majority feeling that they'd be better off by quick 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 that is now say 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 the new found independence now but there won't be any victory laps when they're left with a do find it kinda no wonder then the people who 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 opportunity might be taken away from my very very sick the u.k. has given the will rock and got very little in return it's just going to make life a lot more complicated the biggest impact for me is just going to be travelling and

really not feeling like i am a european anymore i feel like that's been kind of ripped away with everything 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 over a pity possible what while others have gone to extremes during a deep dive into family archives praying that they can find some long lost friend an italian it really doesn't matter a great great on 3 times america 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. the jumping ship to instill confidence in

these uncertain times but boris isn't too bold that in fact he's wrong the pleased with himself this is an amazing moment for this country we have 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 that's a sense that the only thing britons are left holding the empty promises. to mention in her report scottish leaders are using drugs to push for an independent scotland rejoining the e.u. a local journalist and writer david jamieson thinks the idea is unrealistic. the idea or independent scottish membership of the european union or nobody knows what nobody knows what basis and it's a totally untested proposition before the scottish government we know that 62
11:06 am
percent voted for it for the u.k. the membership of the european union in store but that would be wildly different for all scotland's membership let's remind ourselves as well that the european union is a very different organization for its major states its largest states play france germany and formally u.k. it's a very different proposition for its much smaller states and i think if that isn't debate on a future in the pain of scotland's membership of the european union then those issues will come sharply into focus and we should expect is that stores will be more critical of the idea than they were in the 2016 referendum when of course they were voting for a much larger state to stay in the european union and many more dangers facing scotland joining the european union as

a new small state. u.s. city of minneapolis is again on edge after a fatal police shooting authorities have released body count footage of wednesday night's incident and we can show you a clip of that now a warning you may find the video upsetting. and how did. this. incident took place outside a gas station when officers were trying to arrest a suspect the victim has been identified as 23 year old to live and his parents who are somali immigrants say their son was just sitting in his car and the police later raided the family home however according to officers the suspect opened fire 1st from his vehicle. my 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
11:08 am
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 trying to protect the community members lives and their own after that shooting protests took place near where george floyd was killed by a police officer back and may and incident that sparked months of rioting against police brutality. was.

artie's kalam often reports on how the shock waves from george floyd stuff are still reshaping america. for just a minute we'll roll back to 2017 in charlottesville the. news flashes of a battle between leftists and white supremacists heather higher hill when a right winger over rammed his car into a crowd of left wing activists
11:10 am
a police helicopter crashing and killing state troopers street clashes and violence that shocked 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.
11:11 am
the battleground 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 u.s. media has not really focused on giving a specific body count in detroit wisconsin and tennessee protestors were shot and killed on june 12th yahoo news lifted the name of 12 officers from low. well and federal agencies 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. portland was totally out of control
11:12 am
the democrats the liberal democrats running the players and no idea what they were doing they made a point of abducting protesters covering their faces and i'm seeing to engage local officials opposed from who 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. there was a time when average americans viewed protesters as fringe and crazy and 168 richard nixon won the presidential election saying he stood for a silent majority that opposed peace marchers and civil rights activists and was
11:13 am
disgusted by a 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 maybe look back on as a turning point in u.s. history salem up and r.t. new york historian gerald horan says the international attention on police filings against black people is a cause for optimism. i would concur to what happened in april 19th $68.00 in the united states after a nobel laureate got the market to change skill at that particular moment you had chemistry sions and what you there is another aspect of what's happening today that in a sense does on closer to not name the demonstrations global if you look historically
11:14 am
at the struggles of black americans what you'll find is that one of the ways we've made progress in the past is because of international solidarity and so that gives me hope for the future and one of the problems with. the leaders there are dysfunctional and that is a direct result of the clever black people in all of the centralized political organizations such as the black panther party in the 1960 s. the government comes out their leader takes them and sure you know and change them and so therefore the and they are changing is to have not only the you know people just spontaneously come to the streets now and to stand there and but it does is it makes it difficult to play it makes it very difficult to channel that energy into politics. a british doctors union has slammed the government's decision
11:15 am
to alter a vaccine rollout plan officials have decided to hold back 2nd dozens of the pfizer by anti job despite the release of the 1st dose this and move that makes medics say makes no sense we have reeling grave concerns about the sudden changes to the pfizer vaccine regime he told the mine's the consent process as well as completely failing to follow the signs. vaccine trials show that the pfizer biotech shot is 52 percent effective after a single dose and that rises to 94 percent after the 2nd shot which has to be given within 3 weeks according to the manufacturer despite those findings the u.k.'s chief medical officers have just started to prioritize 1st doses in a potential gap of 12 weeks before the follow up injection. the committee advises initially protease and delivery of the 1st vaccine dose is this is highly likely to have agreed to public health impacts in the short term and reduce the number of preventable deaths from coated 19. joined live by dr at lizzy tobar to
11:16 am
a representative of doctors association hugh kaye you're very welcome to the program now could you explain why this delay in releasing the 2nd dose is such a concern. thank you for having me today and kelly the situation in the u.k. now is critical and and it is very very difficult we have lost control of the virus and numbers are rising and most importantly hospitals to keep in the southeast of england are struggling to cope and so the kiddy drastic action is needed and however bad and on one level this appears to be a logical decision we have so many vaccines we have so much capacity to give it and that is a finite saying and it saves the logic that is being taken here and by the chief medical officer of the u.k. is that if we deliver one vaccine for more people and that is is back to thin been
11:17 am
covering an individual's full 8 with the 2 vaccines the issue that we have and with that strategy station u.k. is that the pfizer rollout and has already started so we consented to patients pull a 2nd vaccine as pin the money fractures instructions and ask the evidence when we started to give so now is that decision ha for 3 the vaccination program we all read and undermines the consent process and actually could and when to mine the vaccine and roll it out as a whole and now the other thing this importance remember is that and the majority of vaccine and that will be given in the u.k. will probably be the oxford astra zeneca vaccine and that vaccine is absolutely fine to receive your face states and the your 2nd days 12 weeks later however the date set for the pfizer vaccine says that it should be given 3 weeks apart we don't actually know how one vaccine the immunity to that will will last
11:18 am
exactly and have you gotten any response from the government when it comes to your concerns there any chance of this getting back tracked. so. so the original statement came out on the same december there was a fair statement on the face explaining that concept and that if a 1000 patients and vaccinated twice that's a 1000 that i left with no protection and how and that is what feels logical in the current situation however the our concern is this hasn't been fully disclosed with front line and doctors see the full implications of it are not fully just stole it and that we're not fully explaining things to our patients and as a front line he pay it leaves us in a family difficult position well having to st people yes you did consent and to receive this vaccine 3 weeks ago and well it's actually we're going to delay it for
11:19 am
12 weeks and some of our patients may to round to us since i actually i wouldn't have gone for that vaccine i had to have ag knowing that this was going tested regime we feel that what's really vital here is that the public have high confidence in the vaccine vote outs and high confidence that if we say we're going to do something that's what we day. as you're mentioning earlier there's also the astra zeneca in the country which you're saying is more likely to be used more widely in the country but according to phase 3 trials it's not as affective as the fires are drugs 70 percent as opposed to 94 percent or people be as keen to take that on. i think so i think when we think about the influenza vaccine that many of those take every winter that is probably a bit sometimes 50 to 60 percent effective and so you actually i think 70 percent across the whole of the population is going to have a dramatic impact on average vanity to catch up patients to make sure that we have
11:20 am
an of capacity within the n.h.s. to catch everybody and adequately you think to bear in mind is that the oxygen is much easier to give it doesn't have the same stipulations and so intense it was getting out to people and can homes and getting out to people who are housebound and the ox is actually going to be again changes because that's the vaccine is going to be the easiest to give to those patients. do you have any concerns as well with the fact that when you're giving to people 2 shots and there's a limited period of time between them that that's easier to follow up on but when the gap between them keeps increasing that people are going to fall through the cracks oh absolutely and you know we have people that just the student that has been set up impairment has been absolutely brilliant and i cannot stress how amazing it has been the primary cash stack and start delivering a vaccine program basically out of nowhere and and what has been very it's been
11:21 am
very very organized when patients have come to their face facts he bade them be given their equipment in time to come for that 2nd 3 months later so obviously do is provide be a logistical nightmare to then have to cancel days and then have to try and set up systems that are very very quickly to make sure that we recall those patients in 12 weeks time and as best we can we call them to have the same vaccine when actually you talk we're not sure of the vaccines. we've been speaking with dr a representative of doctors association u.k. thank you for your time on your comments thank you thanks. so had on the program and it's really orchestras arabic now these are music to the ears of those who want to overcome religious hostilities a story and more after this break. the
