ah, with patience already forced to q 4 hours to get into hospitals in the u. k. paramedics born or what are tele, unprecedented crisis facing the i minutes service of the army is put on stand by to help we ask a doctor to diagnose the government's plans for the ensures around 5700000 people on waiting lists within the an h. s. at present, which, se, probably going to get worse before it gets better. several voters, those are reportedly shot dead on more than a 100 injured, as a volunteer ups on the streets of sudan. soft military take over, reduces the country to chaos, and fueling disputes. europe's gas grows, he sees more riffs, emerged within the e u, both ahead of and during an emergency. and as you me thing about how to prevent future
6:01 pm
pros shocks ah, from moscow, thanks for joining us tonight here on our team. and i shall on daniel hawkins rover you. all right, welcome to the program. a u. k. paramedics have raised fears of what they've labeled and utterly unprecedented crisis facing the ambulance service. the n h, as workers claim approaches of the winter season, could prove insurmountable unless the code pandemic is brought under control. that ah, absolutely. situations where people waiting many, many hours both to get in to the hospital. and then once they've been in the hospital waiting to see a doctor course, it has a detrimental effect on anybody who's waiting for hours, either an ambulance or stitching an emergency, a department, and nobody working in those 7 days wants to say that's happened. but there is
6:02 pm
a huge amount of pressure on the, on that test, at the moment the ambulances are being forced to stay in cuba, lasting hours outside hospitals as they wait for their patients to be admitted. now, a number of medic south taken to social media to post pictures of the current situation. one paramedic was the morning urgent action off the showing this photo 25 ambulances queuing waiting to enter an emergency department, adding, it's not even winter yet. while earlier this month, the one patient actually died after waiting more than 5 hours in the back of an ambulance. we are right on the edge and it is the middle of october. it would require an incredible amount of flight for us not to find ourselves in the midst of a profound crisis. over the next 3 months. the u. k. government has put the country on something akin to a war footing to deal with the ongoing crisis. our troops have been trained to drive and it says some 4000 facts for the marines thermo to help their natures cope with the winter season or earlier. the defense secretary said,
6:03 pm
soldiers are also ready to assist with administering vaccines. testings of cobra as well as other general support in hospitals. now new daily record cases in the u. k . skyrocket there in july and they remained at that high level as you can see ever since the summer. a doctor's fear, those numbers combined with the winter flu season could overwhelm the health service. and as his chiefs are also warning, the prime minister to implement the more stringent plan b for when to which includes the vaccine passports, a compulsory case most so far, the government's resisting the move, much to the disappointment, some on the front line. you know, there are other things that the government could couldn't, could be doing. and yes, they should be absolutely seriously considering this, this point in time before things go too far. hospital i working has been on what we call black lab, which means that the beds are absolutely full of patients for a number of weeks now and we are not coming across the whole system. many hospitals
6:04 pm
are very full with patients, so we know that hospital actually run at their most efficient if they're not absolutely pull up with patients. and it doesn't mean that it knock on effects on those patients or waiting for urgent surgery who require in particular intensive care pads or high dependency care on not being processed, not being cared for in a timely way. and we know that is the case. there are 5700000 people on waiting lists within the us at present, which is probably going to get worse before it gets better. headlines and military take over the rest of the political leaders and a state of emergency all combining to enraged projectors incidentally spilled onto the streets, setting time on fire. hey, arctic things have been unraveling in the north african country now for more than 24 hours. the reports now coming in that the prime minister and his wife, the time of monday, have been allowed to return home,
6:05 pm
has been widespread international condemnation of the power grab with the u. s. suspending its financial aid to the country. 7 people reportedly shot dead at least 140 injured as a result of violent clashes between progresses and the army. ah . with things now are somewhat of an impasse of violence. impasse that is,
6:06 pm
people in the streets they, they're staying out there. impetus burning cars, blocking or fruits by by lay roxy, though uprooted roads, brick walls across roads in the capital harpoon. many people now injured some even kill and what they demand is that the military stay out of civilian business. they de botton the release of all the ministers, the civilian leaders that have been arrested by the military. over the past 2 days, the military says that these power sharing agreement between this transitional agreement, between the military and civilian leaders, it hasn't worked. and there have recently been backs by other people also civilians who say that things were better under the, the dictate the autocrat omar bashir, who ruled the country for 3 decades and who was deposed by public protested 2 $1019.00 we've seen reaction poor in internationally the united states has said
6:07 pm
that $700000000.00 and financing assistance for the country has been suspended frozen for now, pending the, the actions of the military. they want them to release all the civilian leaders that they've arrested. they've also condemned this and said that they had no warding, that the school was in the works to be clear, we were not given any heads up about this. there is no m a u. s. military footprint on the ground and stood and there's no training. it's not like there's disrupted some sort of training partnership, a relationship there. there's note that we don't have a u. s. military presence on the ground to those ends. condemnation of those support them from, from the european union, various countries that make it up or to the arab league. the african union varies some talk that perhaps this could spiral into, into a civil war. obviously we must understand the realities, but the, the military with, with all its guns has a big advantage. they could very well use violence to reach their end to restore
6:08 pm
stability. but it must also be understood that there are many people who are sick of the military who was sick of all the autocratic rule that has been imposed on them for so many decades of whom desperately want to transition to a democracy. even with all the trouble that brings and we have seen economic collapse over the last few years in so down the currency collapse, the, the heights in prices for fuel power, food and other commodities for now. communication with people inside sudanese, somewhat difficult because the military has gotten restricted telephone and internet networks. but one refugee from sedan that we've spoken to says this latest military takeover boots ill for his country. why. 1 it was a surprise for us. we didn't expect that he would come to this because all the sudanese people expected sedans to move in the right direction towards democracy.
6:09 pm
the entire nation had such high hopes. the military always imposes its power on the people. we were shocked by the news that the prime minister, senior ministers in the sovereignty council and other important officials had been arrested. we received some messages from our brothers, despite the internet and other communications having been cut. the disagreements between the military and civil officials is very important because the glorious december revolution, the throne, to the old regime, and helped to create the new government. we were counting on the new governments to create a civil state. yet another rift is taking shape and european union . that's off the 9 members face, including germany said on monday they would not support reform of the blocks electricity market. that if you came ahead of an emergency meeting that took place today in luxembourg, where you ministers, raise their disagreements over house. and the crisis is the price spikes have global drivers. we should be very careful before interfering in the design of
6:10 pm
internal energy markets. this will not be a remedy to mitigate the current price in energy prices linked to fossil fuels, markets, and $9.00 countries saver against radical reforms. instead, they support a faster renewable rollout on integration of the electricity market. and that's not the only hurdle facing block members. several e u sites including france and slovenia, who's infrastructure minister, shad today's emergency. and as you may think for support for the use of nuclear power, however, that very issue is previously led to infighting among states shall do miss k report . the energy crisis combined with e u countries trying to meet carbon neutrality targets, bodes well for francis, a favorite form of power nuclear in brussels. the commission president hit the red button. we need a stable source, nuclear and during the transition of course, natural gas. and this is why,
6:11 pm
as we've already stated as a commission in a problem, we will come forward with our taxonomy proposal. member states have been bitterly divided over nuclear power. the commission chief herself previously branded it as dangerous and the likes of austria, germany in spain, all vocal opponents who were disconcerted to learn that in the opinion of the joint research center. there were no indication that the high risk technology that is nuclear power is more damaging to human health and to the environment than other forms of energy generation, such as wind and solar energy. nuclear power, however, is a high risk technology. in germany, people all consumed by the european commissions change of haunt galvan, if i don't believe in nuclear power, has been proven to be the most dangerous and expensive form of energy production at home. craft nuclear power is actually not the best for the future. now their energy
6:12 pm
sources should come 1st to in block and long term. we should move away from both fossil fuels, a nuclear energy towards natural, sustainably generated power. plasma harry, crohn's nuclear power is far better. received president michael has just unveiled plans to build new nuclear plants. he's one of several. you leaders that have been pushing the idea that nuclear is a green investment. the country's grid operate to r t also insist that nuclear is essential to the energy portfolio. building new nuclear reactors is economically viable, especially as it makes it possible to maintain a fleets of around 40 gigawatts in 2050. but that is not an all human that's accepted by environmental organizations. nuclear power is incredibly expensive, hazardous and slow to built. building new nuclear reactors won't happen overnight
6:13 pm
in the you. meaning that this won't be a source of power to draw from, as the energy crisis bites this winter, and also possibly in to next year. what you're really needs is the solution right now, and yet it's resisting the onset that many think is obvious. ask a neighbor for help. in this scenario, that's russia, which has plenty of gas to pump over during this. some new leaders know which way the wind is blowing and even asked the commission to rethink its freeze on russia. forget about ever becoming independent from russia. these will never happen. there's also concern that this shift towards nuclear power being a former green energy is the result of powerful lobbyists. and this desperate is the, you seems to want to forego any relationship with russia over a gas shipping to nuclear won't change the need for that relationship with moscow.
6:14 pm
not only do some elements that are essential for nuclear vision come from russia. the country has also been helping france to process its nuclear waste. whichever way you look at it, the you and its energy needs look sec to remain tightly linked to moscow. experts know that we must rely on russian gas. no problem about that is there. maybe they would prefer to have energy coming from the united states, but we need outside sources. russia has always proposed long term contracts, the government. so the government's for the moment. they don't really complain about the sport prices of gas that are so i, they are my but they have long term delivery plans with a good price. so they are not affected. it's only, you know, specifics only the last cubic meter. that's so expensive. so i think really, everything will be solved by spring, nuclear energy will be all the list all the while did the green taxonomy to use one
6:15 pm
of the crate wording that european commission is used, which is excellent. and gas from russia will be fine to be accepted as the best solution we are. we are neighbors and we must rely on russian gas. no problem. silver gum, 40 champagne. dissect the debacle? love was the nasal troop withdrawal from i've got a song during an evident session slamming what one of them described a schoolboy errors. more than that after this short break. ah ah.
6:16 pm
6:17 pm
welcome back. a british impedes have been conducting a post mortem on the nato troop withdrawal from afghanistan to when you evidence session. basic mistakes word defied was only one option that was withdraw. doesn't worry. it certainly does me hurt on a serious issue like this. there appears to be not across government approach to this in terms of joined up approach. there seems to be some variance here in the titles. inevitably, there were some very difficult questions pointed to the defense secretary from the committee who's very job is to hold foreign policy to account. and this committee is primarily really angry because so far the government has refused to launch a full scale inquiry into the withdrawal of africa stone over the summer. and so the committee of almost taken upon themselves to know this many inquiry into the
6:18 pm
evacuation the time today. really from m p, 's was to felt really one on the one hand they feel like the entire episode with a monumental failure in terms of foreign policy, but also a real let down moment for the moral obligations of the african people as well. now we all kicked off surrounding the p steel. that was struck with the tale on which ben wall is the defense. secretary basically shocked responsibility for the united kingdom's role in the withdrawal decision. if you don't deliver ammunition to the afghan forces and they run out of bullets, that's when they're gonna drop that guns, get rid of a uniforms and go home because they will see the winds of change once again sweeping across afghan histone. so it's a critical school boy era that was made while much of the session also focused on the intelligence failures. of course, you remember back in the summer, then foreign secretary dominic rob appeared to be on holiday sunbathing, while carpool fell so many questions about whether the intelligence was wrong or
6:19 pm
whether or not it was misread and how on earth many key play is in all of this was simply nowhere to be seen. while the defense secretary much like many ministers and military ex, but full back on that argument, how over the law, 20 years, the counter terrorism effort actually prevented groups like al qaeda from launching and re any terrorist attacks from within afghanistan and the u. k. hawk used disbanded the group in its entirety, but considering the taliban now have taken over the region, it almost seems redundant. however, ben wallace did admit that the big a pick to the big political picture in terms of its campaign didn't walk. i don't, i don't think we were defeated nature with the naval that he camp political resolution a political campaign. and i think that is what failed. we were the enabler, the military with their to put in place the security environment in order to try and deliver that. when that was withdrawn. that's when you find out whether your
6:20 pm
political campaign has worked. and i think what we discovered it didn't work right now. it's clear to say that people, one answers, and many people are asking what went wrong, and why did the united kingdom leave afghanistan, how on earth the taliban took over so quickly. plus, of course, the key issue that one and a half 1000 people ask on, interpret, is included, that are eligible to be relocated here in the united kingdom of still stuck in the region. plus, interestingly, around 30 british citizens are too stuck in the region. they're accusing at the united kingdom of totally abandoning them. we met to simply record this message in the hope that someone out there will hear a voice and take action to rescue us and our families, but just to fine appoint than the chairman of the committee to buy as ellwood speaking auster, that quite long session. he said the group are only just as scratching the surface
6:21 pm
to day and i'll be many more uncomfortable moments, full members of parliament that actually were key players in the withdrawal of afghanistan, versions, secret services, restoring them most classified documents on amazon, the u. s. companies reported a lucrative contracts with a government communications headquarters am i 5 and my 6 to use the account system . according to reports, the contracts will allow supplies to share information more easily for abroad and allow for greater integration of artificial intelligence. amazon looks at the land, the 1000000000 pound contract. so over the next 10 years in the deal, the u. k. and that was an a sofa, refused the common. we spoke with former and my father intelligence officer, and he was shaun who thinks that impose whose own sovereignty i find it astonishing that the most secret national security information contained by m i 5 and i 6 and g, p h q can be outside to a private corporation based within another nation fate. i mean, they've always,
6:22 pm
always made such a huge issue of every bit of information. they've got to keep themselves. they've got various laws to protect us information again. whistleblower, for example, like the official secret. and yet now they just handing over all this information to a foreign corporation. it does not make sense. it's just an outsourcing of british national sovereignty. that is going on here. and everyone would say, well, alex america, there are friends. but we've seen time and time again over the last 20 years, at least when the war terrorist started how they can manipulate an abuse intelligence behind the scenes and also have hon. that intelligence can be, in this aspect, when it comes to national security and high grade intelligence and protecting agent lives and ongoing operations. to outsource this information to a foreign company, i just find, actually a cooling it's push for transition to clean energy versions planning cash incentives to help households go green. $5000.00 pound grant level unveiled to
6:23 pm
encourage people to install heat pumps. still threatened silly bits out of pocket. the ground is part of the bridge and push the phase out gas boilers. but if she pete pump reportedly cars just on line 1000 pounds after installation, which is much more than the basic boiler costs isn't expected to be offset by cheaper monthly bills. either since heat pumps used for city which costs more than gas. so for some already stretched financially, swapping out the boiler just isn't viable. somebody like myself retired or where are they going to? so i'm over $7000.00 pounds to install that's going to cost them 40 percent more. you're going to be $5000.00 pound grown to install. the basic cost is $12000.00 pounds and the long is basically it's kind of
6:24 pm
cost more even if i were install for free, your electricity would still increase. so i don't think anybody's going to get a want them because of the costs that ridiculous but at the moment is about 85 percent of the homes are heated by gas boilers. and that counts for a good chunk of the countries carbon emissions. hopes of driving that percentage down low will rest on convincing critics who fear heat pumps have not been thoroughly thought through pounds just not suitable for the normal english. i need to know my cost for rather than the lazy, not reliable. i built a house 30 years ago and i in cool to the house from sleep. and that house came with insulation of offer me some, missing the clothes, the walls and ceilings and the roof virtually hated itself and that way it works.
6:25 pm
but with an english house or a house that's just not possible. you have to rebuild all the house. so the government doesn't build out. houses. developers filled out houses the only way that they are going to stop building those sort of the low that they have to apply. so she is in the united states show no sign of using anytime soon. the secretary of the treasury said inflation leaves a lot with the remain at me a decade higher until at least the 2nd half of next year. let's take a look at some numbers about how people are affected. the prices of used cars and the stakes. for example, if shut off by more than 20 percent, if you will eggs with your stakes enough to buy 13 percent more for them than this time last than the beginning of this year, i should say. furniture and bedding are also up. why double digits, percentage points to now use visuals are saying the inflation rate is way above their initial forecasts. the common shock to the economy has cause disruptions that
6:26 pm
we will be working through over the next year. and of course, americans haven't seen inflation like we have experience in a long time as well. just for us, it's been hit hard. the chief economist for the international monetary fund warned inflationary pressures around the global remain, at least until the middle of 2022. that stephen part to disruption to supply chains during the pandemic. when the u. k, is the poorest to appear to be the was hacked that the opposition labor party claim those last fall off paying up to 50 percent more on energy bills compared to wealthy families. much closer to host of the kaiser report here in our tea leaves the money printing policies of washington and london are only adding fuel to the fire. the u. s. is similar to these other countries and that they're all coordinating their central bank policies. and they are all living in this dream world where you can print money forever and have no consequences. when you print
6:27 pm
trillions and trillions of dollars, it ends up increasing prices. the purchasing power of the money is going to decrease, so everything will cost more if you're using the money. this is an experiment that goes back to 1971 when the world went on. if the money standard, and now for 40 years, we've been living in this experiment. and now in 2020 wanted the experiment is blowing up on our faces. purchasing power for the money is going down. that means that prices for stuff are going to go up. and now people are getting hurt by it. so now the money printing is just going directly into the c p i, it's going directly into price increases. and once the inflation genie is out of the bottle, there's no way to put it back in expectations are running high. so this is the beginning of a secular inflationary move. the only way to stop it is to raise interest rate bound. roger, they're actually raising interest rates. they're doing the right thing. but in the united states, in great britain, they're not raising interest rates. as a matter of fact, they believe that the way to fight this would be the lower rates and to make more
6:28 pm
money available. so they're actually throwing gasoline out of the fire if they were to raise rates, even a quarter of a percentage points, they would throw the entire leverage, the economy of the u. k. and britain into complete parallel zation. so they've really put themselves in an untenable position, and i think we're going to see a huge economic dislocation. this is the beginning of a secular inflationary move that's going to cause tremendous damage. loza headlines for this hour and that's good bye from the team. and myself will leave you with the commentary exploring on also questions on the safety of the global friend of a thing. you know, ship of all of us will be with you in half an hour to guide you through the nightly news headlines to join us again in the in 30 minutes time. ah, when else shows seemed wrong when all
6:29 pm
just don't hold. a shape out. disdain becomes the advocate an engagement. it was betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. does you repair the strategic vision for the future? what kind of relationship will it develop with china? europe stands at a crossroads will remain dependent on washington as a junior partner or will europe opt to play the role of a great power on the world stage. with
6:30 pm
a dime. i cried. i just had slept the whole time. i was there. no one really thought anything different, he just all thought i just didn't feel good on the way for the surgery. his lungs failed. 30 seconds, but i killed him when he got stuck with so many needles by day there's a few points that were really the turning point. did you pay to? so if you reach out here, we're searching new medical bought them in the united states. knowing the doctors to.
