ah, was patients already forced to give you 4 hours to get into hospitals in the u. k. paramedics, one of an actually unprecedented crisis facing the ambulance service dance as the almost put on stand by to help. we ask a doctor to diagnose the government plans for the health services that are 5700000 people on waiting lists within me a net present, which se, probably go to get worse before it gets better. as several processors are reportedly shot dead and devoted a 100 angel as violence around on the streets of sudan of sure, military takeover juices the country to chaos. and fueling the skis, europe gas crisis sees more wraiths emerge within the u. both had all been during
9:01 pm
an emergency editor meeting about how to prevent future prize shocks. ah, this is the news and i'll see international with me. you leisure, prov. oliver. hello and welcome to the program. you k, paramedics, have res, fears a war. they've labeled and actually unprecedented crisis facing the ambulance service. they and they trust work is claim the pressures or the winter season could prove unsurmountable unless they carried pandemic is brought under control. there are absolutely situations where people are writing many, many hours, both to get in to the hospital. and then once they've been in the hospital waiting to see a doctor, cause it has a detrimental effect on anybody who's waiting for hours either in london. so sitting in an emergency department and nobody working in those services wants to
9:02 pm
see that happens, but there is a huge amount of pressure on the chest at the moment i'm hearing this is being forced to staying keys, lasting hours outside hospitals as they wait for their patients to be admitted and number of medic had taken to social media to post pictures of the current situation . one paramedic was demanding an option of showing 25 ambulances cruise waiting to enter an emergency department, adding its not even winter. while earlier this month, a patient died of to wait for more than 5 hours in the bank of an ambulance. we are right on the edge and it is the middle of october. it would require an incredible amount of luck 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 i came to a warfare thing to deal with. the crime says troops from various branches of the armed forces have been trying to drive ambulances. some 4000 of them are in standby
9:03 pm
to help, and they trust cope with the winter season. and the defense secretary said that army soldiers are also register, assist with administering vaccines testing for covered and other general support and hospitals. new daily co cases in the u. k. skyrocketed ain't july. i have remained high ever since doctors fear those numbers combined with the winter flu season will overwhelm the health system. and i trust chiefs also on the prime minister to implement the the more stringent plans be for windsor, which includes a vaccine passport and compulsory face masks. so found the government's rising, the resisting the move, much to the disappointment of some on the front line. you know, there are other things that the government could could and it could be doing. and yes, they should be absolutely seriously considering mr. at this point in time before things go too far, hospital i working has been on what we call black alert, which means that the, the beds are absolutely full of patients for
9:04 pm
a number of weeks now. and we are not coming across the whole system. many hospitals are very full with patients and we know that hospitals actually run at their most efficient if they're not absolutely full up with patients. and it does mean that knock on effects are that those patients who are waiting for urgent surgery who require in particular intensive care beds or high dependency care on not being processed or not being cared for in a timely way. and we know that is the case. there are 5700000 people on waiting lists within the n h. s. at present, which sublease probably going to get worse before it gets better. and military take her by their rest of political leaders and a state of emergency all combining to enrage protesters in sudan who spelled under this treat, setting ties on fire. chaotic scenes have been unraveling in the north african country for more than 24 hours. now. reports are now coming in that the prime
9:05 pm
minister and his wife detained on monday have been returned home, but placed under gaunt. that's been widespread. international condemnation of the power grab with the u. s. and germany, suspending their financial aid to the con 7 people were reportedly shot dead and at least 140 injured as a result of violent clashes between protest and the army. ah, [000:00:00;00]
9:06 pm
with things now are somewhat of an impasse, a violence imparts that is people in the streets they, they're staying out the impetus, burning cars, blocking off roads by, by lay roxy, the uprooting 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 demand 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 they have recently been backed by other people, also civilians who say that things were better under the, the dictate,
9:07 pm
the autocrat omar bashir, who ruled the country for 3 decades of who was deposed by public protest in 2019 we've seen reaction poor in internationally, the united states has said that $700000000.00 in financing assist 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 it and said that they had no warding but the school was in the works to be clear, we were not given any heads up about this. there is no a u. s. military footprint on the ground in sudan. 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 is also put in from, from the european union, various countries that make it up or to the arab league. the african union varies
9:08 pm
some talk that perhaps this could spiral into, into a civil war. obviously, we must understand the realities, but the military with, with all its guns, has a big advantage that they could very well use violence to reach their aim, to restore stability. but it must also be understood that there are many people who are sick of the military who was sick of all the the autocratic rule that has been imposed on them for so many decades of that. who 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 sudan, the currency collapse, the the heights in prices for few power food and other commodities for now. communication with people inside sudanese, somewhat difficult because the military has cut and restricted telephone and internet networks. but one refugee from sedan that we've spoken to says this latest
9:09 pm
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 sedan to move in the right direction towards democracy. 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. but this agreement between the military and civil officials is very important because the glorious december revolution dethroned the old regime and helped to create the new government. we were counting on the new governments to create a civil state. yet another raft has taken shape in the european union after 9 member states, including germany said on monday that they would not support reform of the blocks
9:10 pm
electricity market. the dispute had come ahead of an emergency meeting that took place recently in luxembourg and where you ministers raised their disagreements over how to and the crisis is the price spikes have global drivers. we should be very careful before interfering in the design of internal energy markets. this will not be remedied to mitigate the current rising energy prices linked to fossil fuels . markets that are in countries say they are against radical reforms. instead, they support a fast renewable rollout and integration of electricity market, and that's not the only hurdle facing block members. several e u countries including france, lavinia, who's infrastructure minister chad cheese days, emergency energy meeting, express support for the use of nuclear power. however, that very sure has previously led to in fighting among states. i'll see a shot davinsky picks up the story. the energy crisis combined with
9:11 pm
e u countries trying to meet colbin neutrality targets, bodes well. the francis 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, as we've already stated as a commission in april, 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. we 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
9:12 pm
a high risk technology in germany. people are concerned by the european commissions change of heart. 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 sources should come 1st. the in block, in the long term, we should move away from both fossil fuels, a nuclear energy towards natural sustainably generated power. in brick, harry frog's nuclear power is far better. received president mack on his 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 countries great operate to r t e also insisted that nuclear is essential to the energy portfolio. building new nuclear reactors is economically viable, especially as it makes it possible to maintain
9:13 pm
a fleets of around 40 gigawatts in 2050. but that is not an argument that's accepted by environmental organizations. nuclear power is incredibly expensive, hazardous and slow to built. building new nuclear reactors won't happen overnight in the e. u. meaning that this won't be a source of power to draw from, as the energy crisis bites this winter, and also possibly into next year. what you're really needs is the solution right now, and yet it's resisting the answer that many think is obvious. ask a neighbor for help in this scenario, that's russia, which has plenty of gas to pump, overt during this pinch. some e lee does know which way the wind is blowing and of even asked the commission to rethink its freeze on russia. forget about ever become an independent from russia. these will never happen. there's also concern that this shift towards nuclear power being
9:14 pm
a form of green energy is the result of powerful lobbyists and as desperate as the e. u 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. not only to some elements. so the 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 e. u and energy needs look set to remain tightly linked to moscow. experts know that we must rely on russian gas. no problem about that. is there a 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 governments for the moment, they don't really complain about the spot prices of gas that are so i,
9:15 pm
they are my but they have long term delivery plans with a good price. so they are not affected on it's only, you know, specifics only that 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 of the while did the green taxonomy to use one of the crazy wording that you european commission is used, which is excellent and gas from russia will be finally accepted as the best solution we are. we are neighbors, and we must rely on russian gas. no problem. british m. p. 's have conducted a post mortem on the nato troop withdrawal from janice done during the evidence session. some basic mistakes were identified was only one option that was withdraw . doesn't worry you. it's silly to me on
9:16 pm
a serious issue like this there appears to be not across government approach to this in terms of joined up approach. yeah, there seems to be some variance here in the timing. 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 based on over the summer. and so the committee have almost taken upon themselves to know this many inquiry into the evacuation. the tone today really from m p. 's was to felt really one on the one hand they feel like the entire episode was a monumental failure in terms of foreign policy, but also a real 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
9:17 pm
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 afghanistan. 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 whether or not it was misread and how on us many key play is in all of this was simply nowhere to be seen. while the defense secretary, much like many ministers and military experts full back on that argument, how over the law, 20 years, the counter terrorism effort actually prevented groups like al qaeda from launching
9:18 pm
and re any terrorist attacks from within afghanistan and the u. k. hockey is 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 picture, the big political picture in terms of its campaign didn't walk. i don't, i don't think we were defeated nature with a to enable that. he camp political resolution a political campaign. and i think that is what failed. we were the enabler. the military was there to put in place the security environment in order to try and deliver that. when that was withdrawn. that when you find out whether your 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
9:19 pm
a half 1000 people ask on interpreters included that are eligible to be relocated here in the united kingdom, a still stuck in the region plas, 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 a final point 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 to day and i'll be many more uncomfortable moments. full members of parliament that actually were key players in the withdrawal of afghanistan were in secret services are storing the most classified documents on amazon. the us company has reported a london a lucrative contract with a government communications headquarters and my 5 and my 6 said to use that cloud
9:20 pm
system. according to report was the contract will allow spine to shy information more easily from abroad and allow for greater integration of a i, i was, looks at to learn to 1000000000 pounds over the next 10 years. and the d u, the u. k. and amazon have so far, refused to come and was spoke with former. and my 5 intelligence officer on him is shawn who thinks it imposes on you case holder. and i find it astonishing that the most secret national security information contained by m. i 5 and i 6 and g t h q can be outside to a private corporation based within another nation fate. i mean, they've always, always made such a huge issue. every bit of information they've got to keep themselves. they've got various laws to protect that 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
9:21 pm
national sovereignty. this is going on here. and i would say, well, alex america, there are friends, but we've seen time and time again over the last 20 years, at least from the warrant. harris 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 out sources information to a foreign company. i just find, actually calling a made it push for a transition to clean an entry, written this planning cash incentives to help household go green. but the 5000 pound grant unveiled to encourage people to install heat pumps still threatens to leave for its out of pocket. the grant, as part of britain's push to phase our gas boilers, but a cheap heat pump reportedly cost just under $19000.00 pounds have to installation, which is much more than a basic boiler because isn't expected to be offset byte cheap, monthly bills,
9:22 pm
either things hate pumps. he's electricity, which costs more than gas, so some already stretch financially. swing out the boiler is not viable for somebody and i prefer myself. retired or where are they going to over $7000.00 pounds but it's going to cost me 40 percent more. you're going to be a $5000.00 pound grown to install. the basic cost is $12000.00 and the long basically it's going to cost more. even if i reinstall for free electrons a few times, it would still increase. so i don't think any of you can get a one of the costs that ridiculous adamant about 85 percent of u. k. holmes. a hated to buy gas boil is that counts for a good chunk of the countries, carbon emissions,
9:23 pm
but hope so. driving that percentage down will rest in convincing critics who fear hate pumps have not been properly for through pounds. just the same for the normal english. i mean they cost for rather than the lazy. they're not reliable. i built a house years ago. and i called to the house from suite and that house came with the insulation of offer me some, missing the clothes, the walls and ceilings and the roof virtually hated it. so that way it works. but with an english house from u. k. house that's just not possible. you have to rebuild all the house. so the government doesn't build out houses, properties and build houses. the only way that's going to stop building those sort of the low to high sizes in the us
9:24 pm
show no sign of easing anytime soon. the secretary of the treasury has said inflation rates are likely to remain at near decade hines until at least the 2nd half of next year. to give you an idea of how that hating people in the pocket, the prices of used cars and states have shown up to buy nearly 20 percent. and if you want eggs where the stakes, you will pay 15 percent more for them compared to the beginning of this year, while furniture and bedding around by double digits, percentage points as well. us official say the inflation rate is way above full cost. the convert charge to the economy has called disruptions that 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. it's not just the us that has been hate hauled the truth economies for the international monetary fund won't inflationary pressures around the globe will
9:25 pm
remain at least until the middle of 20 to 22. that's during part to disruption to supply trains during the pandemic. and in the u. k, if the poorest appeared to be hard as have the opposition labor policy claim, those less well of a paying up to 50 percent known and intra build compared to wealthy families and marks kinds a host of the kinds report hale. and i'll say international believes the money printing policies a washington and london are only your to the file. the us 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 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 fee money. this is an experiment that goes back to 1971 when the world went on. if the money standard, and now for 40 years,
9:26 pm
we've been living in this experiment. and now in 2020 wanted the experiment is blowing up on our faces. purchasing power for fee money is going down. that means that prices for stop 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 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 were throw the entire leveraged economy of the u. k. and britain into complete parallel zation. so they've really put themselves in an
9:27 pm
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. you're up to date, more news and about certain minutes time up next to it said use use. he's with house culture now he's the i look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except where such order is at conflict with the 1st law show your mind. and just in case we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. and the point obviously is to place trust rather than fear a very job with artificial intelligence,
9:29 pm
oh, is your media a reflection of reality? in a world transformed what will make you feel safer? hi sir. lation for community. are you going the right way? or are you being that somewhere? which direct? what is true was is great. in the world corrupted, you need to descend. ah, so join us in the depths. will remain in the shallows. ah
9:30 pm
ah, china continued his dry 1st to parry already through a space attack system. countries including the united states, are wondering what is actually being built actually defend against such advanced combat weaponry. we're going to tell you what is currently available and what is being developed. and the european union is having a repeated problem with one country. and i just don't know what to do with it. while the issue, poland refuses to conform and lead each policy rural supreme over national legislation, we will bring you that the latest power struggle going on in europe, and a terabyte and we're coming. that's the motto for the new migrant caravan, which adjuster broke through the national guard row block in mexico. we will have a debate about the latest round up thousands marching towards the southern border and what should await them when they reach their destination. home prices
