to be happening the the ah biggest shift program in the history of the u. k. national health services. how prime minister barak johnson is described his plans for the country's cobra recovery. the paying for it means breaking to key election pledges. just like that for the break amount. if it's a commitment which is not which is not something i do likely, but a group of times with the understand you insure him government announced with a cabinet featuring a taliban founder of the militant on the f. b. i wanted listen b, b, c, apologize. this is for documentary on an alleged chemical attack interior in 2018

that made both claims about a former inspector who challenge the western narrative to blame the assad government. ah, believing that said, joining in on the british prime minister doors johnson has broken too. if this is the key election manifesto promises in just the day and all to pay for the unprecedented impact of the pandemic correspondent in london, isa alley has details absolutely. bar. as johnson, the prime minister, and flying because he was today by both his health secretary and his chancellor. really outlining these changes to what has been long standing british government policy, in particular, when it comes to the phone, call the triple lock retentions, which essentially in the part of ensure that 3 pension is,

would have gained any increase year on year on the pensions. whether it was pegged to the rate of inflation to rises in earnings or 2.5 percent. whichever one of those 3 figures would have in the highest, that's how much triple the triple pension would have risen by every year. but with an unusually high figure of 8.8 percent rise in earnings, the government thing, they simply cannot afford to rise to raise pensions by that much for the following year. and so they've had to do away with this long standing policy. but par assumption defending that, saying that it's in the public interest for the overall economy. we're beginning the biggest catch up program in history of the an h. s. the levy will share the cost as fairly, as possible between people and businesses. because we all benefit from

a well supported and a chest and all businesses benefit from a healthy workforce, while the opposition in the u. k. i haven't taken it lightly. shuttle complexion secretary jonathan rentals reacting to the prime minister, essentially saying the way the government tries to frame this issue of, for example, people living longer and having healthier lives and insensitive way of dealing with what are very real issues for the elderly when it comes to that pensions to governments, cases of the photo data and the pandemic have produced a statistical aberration. i reject the presentation of this issue as a source of intergenerational tension or unfairness because we all have an interest in ensuring that there's a decent state pension in the future. we would never present increase longevity as a problem. now this is of course, the manifested pledge that the prime minister has broken within a day. the 2nd of those being an announcement to raise national insurance

contributions. which states the government that is promised not to do in the lead up to that election at the end of 2019. but as far as johnson was pointing out, so strenuously today, when that manifesto was written in the country. and the world in fact, didn't have a pen to take into account, no conservative government, no conservative government to speak every once to raise taxes. and i will be honest with the high except yes, i accepted the break. i manifest commitment, which is not something which is not something i do likely, but a global pandemic within the. so the government, the chancellor, the treasury all with a balancing act to do to have tried to please if not all sectors of society as many as possible when it comes to the agenda, not just in the u. k. the so called global a gender build back, and that's a point. and slogan the bar, as johnson repeated again today. ok. his big now political

commentator anthony webber joined me on the line. just got you on that. thanks so much for joining an entity that bores johnson breaking to key election pledge is, i mean, no one for saw as he said, it is going to be a global pandemic. but he said that the sign these promises were unbreakable. is it damaging for him to break those promises? i think it is damaging because of the way it's been done to saw where he's playing a pandemic and see the opposition point about to die all the problems we types with the. with social cas interested well before the camera low. so the, so that's the best. but the 2nd point, which is the puppet, would never about how to deal with the we have to walk down mass facts, nation mass testing, all sorts of beggars, which were actually complete the necessary for the scarlet. which was,

if you look at other countries in the world like sweden, taiwan shops, which is great. and i've had this massive damage about whole service because they have to tow it with a kind of proportionate way. so i think the government has actually dealt with the district course that way it's been spending money, i was thinking about the consequences. it's now trying to deal with the consequences by bringing in this additional meetings like a mummy. now the pup amazed that we've had an issue with social care for what he's trying to do is connect this off with paying you for the extra costs for the plan as well as saving with long term care

issues. so he's next 3 different shoes and quite crazy. lots of money is going to be coming into social care. so long term care for something to try and cause the means of raising this money. if you look at the one, it's walk in the bush arms where they have had a long track in guns for 18, being a very successful schemes for long term care, which is currently costing about cheap insurance contributions. now the government is just completely ignored. the success of the state has tried to use this needs the source of care and social care in with some big problems. i'd go with the to the book speakers as the chancellor and the prime minister pointed out

today, they've had the biggest spending in this years since the essence of the 2nd world war. so we've got major problems. i think they should look at the home care issues if you look at what's happening in gun c successfully they, they don't have been tested by some of the city and a new song arrest the faith, which since governments is proposed. and then the level of funding which is due to go just social care, which is a major issue, is pretty much say, said there are many, many aspects of these proposals which satisfactory. i think they, i did that we have to pay rules for their long term care payments

to create social i something which is poor the government to take time to use chris. hello. this chris chris to build up the lack of funding because of the responsibility he needs is not right for the course. in that respect, it does right. the election progress he has to publish sounds are trying to sort out the issue, but he's mixed up with other issues. so made a very confusing i'm sure they'll be to, to how this is funded because 3 of the cars are all people who are going to be

paying money. people like $66.00 will be buying mommy who say there's a problem that's some big will continue to so last time is an asset. so it's sort of a quarter measure. it's not something which is really source carriage and it's not really sort about a issue of the pay call people the government's commitment amounts of money, increasingly training the reputation that people are offering as well as phase where i can see in the chess it's fairly laudable, working on the brain, social can sex symbol tomorrow with my chest as a home because it's the chrysler time. and

i think be the situation with people having to tell you all costs that were on or not. so when in fact his government i just found the number possible bags and we've got one of the last numbers, a hospital bench propose re most western europe. so it's all to blame me, all the other things for problems which this government sudden pain discovery. she goes off. now of course these properties are got to be sold, but i think they've got to be sold on a minute. it's all right for the partners that are be time me break policy promise or does something he says are always the right thing to do. well that's pretty so i think the city,

i think the one of the problems with this is he did promise cross policy swaps that have been some behind the scenes. but i think it's quite clear. but if you look up the policies approach a week or 2 ago, that would be supporting clouds to improve that cycle for the overlay. and now that's not going to show you. and you can see the reasons why it, because the why the government strong about the way they just did all these are catch up populations which needs to be hope to see where many of those behind operations have no sudden sho appointments that somehow the toughest got some pretty well the, the public would never asked by means general election or referenda

if they won't be locked, how much is which the government for which there isn't a base on so that was full lacy jury with out. so now we're expecting the humble pay for the mistakes apply. this increase of which you saw foolish and additionally is trying to go to long term care for. so we hope that will be some suitable amendment when when she gets to be because it's, it's pretty obvious such as far as the case about study from my perspective, i'm the right answer. the appreciating, it's my guess political commentator anthony web for iraq's and came

to us canister. now 3 weeks since the tolerance web bank to power and sees full control of the country. the islamist medicine groups now officially announced this interim government correspond and i guess the reports from cobble there had been a lot of speculation in the, in the weeks leading up to this point about the make up of any new afghan or taliban government, whether the taliban would but compromise to all the calls, especially from the west for any new afghan government to be to be inclusive to perhaps even include women in it. but this new government that has been announced the taliban says this is a care take government. so only temporary, perhaps with legend stated, for the future, this new government is swell, tally bad through and through. they have elected to go for the uranium model. and nowadays for a supreme leader, i mean he bit the law who is the supreme leader of the taliban? ruling the government, which is then made up of a prime minister in this case,

mohammed whom formerly the prime minister of the of the taliban government during 2000 during 2001 when they were lost in power. he is seen as a loyal function of the taliban. someone who has stayed as have all the other figures in this new government with the data. but through the very long years of us occupation, m. v. insurrection, against the other names on these new government lease will perhaps turn head cook. joe had one of the sons of the co founder, or perhaps even, arguably the founder of the taliban. he is now slated to be the defense minister, perhaps an even more controversial appointment is that of the new interior minister here j dean had guardy, the son of a former warlord, and someone who has a 5000000 dollar bounty to him, said by the united states he's wanted for questioning with regards to

a bombing in 2008, which killed amongst others, a us citizen. he is believed to be heavily involved in again the, the insurrection and the resistance against us presence and need her presence here enough. got to start again. there was a lot of a lot of speculation that perhaps given how hot the vitality is trying to the god to get to get it to the actual recognition that they would make compromises. but perhaps after what happened in pad, she had a valley over the last week. the fierce battles there and the pat decimation of the opposition that had gathered that the taliban elements, perhaps, that had a bold and the taliban to appoint the government. and the figures that it has, nevertheless, again, a temporary government. the taliban says it is unclear yet how long it will stay in

power. and what will follow with serious british jonas richard. mad hers believes that the world will take a cautious approach to the new afghan government, hoping the country doesn't descend towards terrorism. again. i think that a lot more can be achieved with diplomacy if they really want to stop ghana them from becoming a terror hub. as they say. the best thing to do is to, you know, sit down and talk with talent to avoid. busy this happening, but as i said, i'm gonna say was never a problem really regarding 911 on the war on terror. this was all the far invaded afghanistan and iraq for different reasons, right. if there were really concerned about terrorism, they have to look at it now because many of them are sponsors of terrorism. and united states itself was helping these groups, the very same ones that are now in the, in the taliban government to how connie networked, for example. and as we said, the majority back in the 1080, they were getting the money from the united states. so the us helped create these groups, pop them up and had a hand in this had a role in it's very important to underline the historical aspect of that the b,

b. c has apologized for a documentary on an alleged chemical attack in syria in 2018, admitting that it contains serious inaccuracies. this comes 10 months after the ripple was ad on radio for a k implication by the british broadcast. it was that a former inspector, he's, he's contrasted starkly with the west narrative. the blame, the syrian government was motivated by payoff from wiki links. now the whistleblower website was in fact offering a cash incentive for information on duty at the time. bought says that no such reward was ever paid. as when chief of wiki lynx welcomed the apology from the b b . c, adding, he hopes that other major alice will follow. shirley edwards dash has more unraveling. what really happened? that takes us to the heart of the global race and to control the narrative of the war. this is the opening of a, b, b, c radio for documentary. and as we know, the pbc predicate itself on anything box,

fake news. this all you can rely on the go to platform for truth and the broadcast the van to leave no stone left on turn over the ledge. 2018 chemical talk in syria . but i run it clean now 10 months off to the publishing of this so called truth, the b, b, c. admit. so that contains some serious inaccuracy. the see you found that although they were limited to one aspect of an investigation into a complex and hotly contested subject, these points represented a failure to meet the standard of accuracy appropriate to a program of this kind. and this program as so called account of a former inspector from the organization for the position of chemical weapons under the name alex was included. only it suggests that alex is disclosures have been motivated by reward of a $100000.00 offered by wikileaks. now, just to be clear, no such reward was ever paid according to ricki lake itself. but why does the bbc remember this? this serious is the result of sorrow journalism and needs to be

b. c's editorial standards. a number of your points are based on inaccurate interpretations of the contents of the series, and we would suggest listening again for clarification. as appropriate. we approached individuals where allegations were raised, invite exam, as well as others to respond to what is reported in the program. was sent by the investigation and now we're journalism. yes, it was a b, c. talking about the same documentary off the journalists are in must a sense of board casa, his question about how the documentary series failed to mention reports i found to be received on this rhymes. lastly, that the attack may have been staged and how it was down damning by former p. c. w inspector jose, but stoney, as merely having an axe to grind with the americans. however, they were either rebuffs or down, played back then that he was. he now admits it insinuated that alex was off to the

cash bounty. but that's not all the documentary fabricated or at least seriously exaggerated. it also claim that pizza hitchens the agenda to fall these complaints against the documentary in the very 1st place, shall the russian and syrian state views on the complex that these attacks were indeed staged. and yes, the claims have been withdrawn by the b, b, c. but aligning hitchens with the russian, syrian official view leads to worry and questions about anyone stepping out of line automatically being pitted as spinning. and i'm to watch the narrative. as to alex is dealings with journalists. although he has collaborated with journalists who held broadly the same views on the war as the russian and 3 governments. he had also collaborated with journalists of whom that could not be said. mister hitchens, among them. if they say, suppose at the bottom can tackle narratives rather than spin and create them all this the, the bbc has backtracked on that. and well peter hitch and to push the b. c to face it's fundamental flaws. hales is all as

a factory for truth. what does this mean about the war agenda? the broadcast has been pushing for years. the bbc reporting is very biased and, and very much supportive of british establishment. this was a very important incident, led to the u. k, the u. s. and perhaps bombing syria. there's been a very heavy bias, an assumption that i thought was always wrong and that the accusations of the west were always right. and it's time after time we've seen incidents switch up and accusations by the west, which have convincingly turned out to be not through time hoping that more a more request will be made to them to look into more substantial issues here. the fall out from the taliban. take over enough canister, has posed a challenge for the central asian region and also russia and facing off any

potential threats. not as a key focus of military drills now and away in the nation of categor stem. these constantine rush, cough is the cloud. well, the military, we have been crickets down, have officially kicked off a show of force been displayed by famous rocket artillery laundry. the famous grab an house where this training facility troops have also engaged in active shooting. and these drivers are well under way. now these were games are stage with annual leave that this year they are common and the backdrop of the disaster. it's us redraw from, again, it's dan which is by the way, not far from here and as the how the bond is still trying to establish itself as the new government and cobble neighboring countries, namely, get, dan, did you get sam as big as dan, as well as russia, their main military ally are weary of uncontrolled militants for extremist, huge might take advantage of the situation and cause trouble in the military and

political situation in collective security treaty organization, soon of a direct responsibility is still complicated. the most vulnerable area is central asia. in the wake of the talent they coordinate. galveston, which borders on the genius time the region is seen height and activity from international terrorism, and really just radicalism. now this training facility, the training ground where we are at, is located in probably one of the most scenic part of crude stan and the mountains by the lake of se cool. and it is specifically designed to help the military. we deal with mountain work. $1000.00 military personnel as well as john or hillary over 100 feet. the armored vehicles tangs as well as a vh and are taking part in this maneuvers now according to the area of the israel, the terrorist. and they made the country named guardia attacked several villages

here, and there was main job to repel the sold as quickly as possible. well, the reason grace repeated important for russia courteous and one of the main rushes out posed in this region, the military base and the senior khan. and by the way, helicopters and several closures, or jobs from the base are also taken part in this maneuver and other countries that have send the military to the exercise. there were conflicts done in virginia down along with russia and cris dot. these are 4 members of the c s c o, the collective security treaty organization, when it brings together 6 former soviet republics. now, the main goal of these trails, like any other drill, just to improve scales of the military. but there is also a message here that moscow allies in the region remain vigilant. in this you most was time following the us pull out from again a, sam canadian prime minister justin to do didn't get the war miss the

welcome steering. an electioneering campaign stuffy made in ontario after gravel was thrown at him. the mistake made them move. the pm was boarding a bus. protesters boot james health posters calling for no vaccine passports and no more long down the gravel only hit 2 on the shoulder. he himself said he was not hom incident. okay. most of the premier earlier slammed anti banks mobs that have been disrupting liberal campaign events in races we today called a snap, generally election last month, signed to lead the country out of the pandemic. but his covert recovery plans, they sharp criticism along with the front canadians having to go to the pulse 2 years ahead of schedule independent political analyst alessandra bruno shed his thoughts on today's decision to go to the polls. well, he appears to be on rocky ground. however, when they called the election a few weeks ago, actually election coincided by the way with the events in cobble with the

withdrawal of the american. it seemed a strategic move at the time because the liberals were actually doing quite well for a while. particularly with with the vaccinations. there was a feeling that wild flow and some se bumpy, and the little lock downs were eating during the summer. so there was a feeling of that, that there is some resolution approaching. i can see why they called this election now before whatever troubles would come as a result of the economic stimulus programs. we don't know many countries in the west or in for a number of surprises, i think in, in the next coming months. so perhaps if a high, the, i being a strategist for 2 though, who is seeking a majority government right now, he has

a minority government. appreciate company hearing about with updates in 30 minutes . give me hello, driven by a dreamer shaped by those in me dares think we dare to ask me. ah, the pacific leg around the world expedition by 1000
