oh, smell of breath. with patients already forced to queue for hours to get into hospitals in the u. k. paramedics wall of an utterly unprecedented crisis facing the ambulance service that the armies put on stand by to help. we ask a doctor to diagnose the government plans for the health service. there are 5700000 people on waiting lists within me and a chest at present, which it se, probably go to get worse before it gets better. also this, our several protests is reportedly shorter and more than a 100 injured as violence or wrong on the streets of saddam of trim military takeover reduces the country to chaos and fueling disputes. europe's gas crisis. these morris emerge within the u. by for had all
10:01 pm
been during an emergency editor meeting about how to prevent future price talks. ah, this is the news, and i'll see international coming to life from oscar. my name is eula ship avalo. thanks for joining us. u. k. paramedics has raised fears. well, they've labeled an oscillate unprecedented crisis facing the ambulance service. they antitrust workers claim depression. the winter season could prove unsurmountable unless because they've been demick is brought under control. there are 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,
10:02 pm
either in lumpiness or stitching an emergency. a department and nobody working in those services wants to see doubts happened. but there is a huge amount of pressure on the, on just at the moment, ambulances are being forced to stay in keys lasting hours outside hospitals as they wait for their patients to be admitted. a number of medics have taken to social media to post pictures of the current situation. one paramedic was demanding urgent action after showing 25 ambulance crews waiting to enter an emergency department, adding its not even winter while earlier this month, a patient died after waiting more than 5 hours in the back of an ambulance. we arrived on the edge and it is the middle of october. it would require an incredible amount of lot for us not to find ourselves in the midst of perform crisis. over the next 3 months. the u. k. government has put the country on something a cane to award for taking to deal with the crisis. troops on various branches of
10:03 pm
the armed forces have been trained to drive ambulances. some 4000 of them are in standby to held the antitrust cope with the winter season. early in the defense secretary said that army soldiers are also ready to assist with administering vaccines, testing for covered and other general support in hospitals. new daily covey cases in the u. k skyrocketed in july and have remained high ever since doctors feared those numbers combined with the winter flu season could overwhelm the health system. and age. has chiefs also won the prime minister to implement the more stringent plan b, or when to which includes vaccine passports, and compulsory face masks. so found the government's resisting to move much to the disappointment of some of the frontline. you know, there are other things that the government could couldn't could be doing. and yes, they should be absolutely seriously considering mr. at this point in time before things go to the hospital, i work in have been on what we call black lab,
10:04 pm
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 are very full with patients, so we know that hospital actually been at the most efficient if they're not absolutely pull up with patients. and it does may not knock on effects on 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 us present, which is probably going to get worse before it gets better. a military take, however, they arrest of political leaders and the state of emergency all combining to enrage protest. this incident is spelled onto the tray, setting tires and fire. chaotic things happen unraveling in the north african
10:05 pm
country for more than 24 hours. now. the prime minister and his wife detained on monday have been returned home, but placed on the god that's been widespread. international condemnation of the power grub with the u. s. and germany suspending their financial aid to the country . 7 people were reportedly shown that and at least a 140 injured as a result of von and clash between protesters and the army. ah. with
10:06 pm
things now are somewhat of an impasse, a violence imparts that is people in the streets they, they're staying out there. impetus burning cars, blocking off roads 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 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,
10:07 pm
the dictate the autocrat omar bashir, who ruled the country for 3 decades and who was deposed by public protestant, 2 $1019.00 we've seen reaction poor in internationally the united states has said 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 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 of those support in from, from the european union, various countries that make it up. also, the arab league, the african union,
10:08 pm
varies some talk that perhaps this could spiral into we're into a civil war. obviously we must understand the realities, but the, 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 the who desperately want to transition to democracy. even with all the trouble that brings it, we have seen economic collapse over the last few years in so darn the currency collapse, the. the heights in prices for fuel power, food, and other commodities for now. communication with people inside suddenly 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 military takeover boots ill for his country. why. 1 it was
10:09 pm
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. 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 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 riffs has taken shape and the european union after 9 member states including traveling, he said on monday, they would not support reform on the blocks electricity market. the dispute had
10:10 pm
come ahead of an emergency meeting that took place recently in luxembourg. and were you ministers raised their disagreements of a 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. these will not be remedied to mitigate the current cries and energy prices linked to fossil fuels . markets. the 9 countries say they are against ranika reforms. instead they support a faster renewable of worn out and integration over year electricity markets. and that's not the only hurdle facing block members. several e u countries including france and slovenia, whose infrastructure minister chad tuesdays, emergency energy meeting express support will the use of nuclear power. however, that very issue has previously led to in fighting amongst states. i'll take shawnee davinsky pics, have the story. the energy crisis combined with you countries trying to meet
10:11 pm
call been 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 fatally divided over nuclear power. the commission chief herself previously branded it as dangerous and the likes of austria, germany in spain, all local opponents, who were disconcerted to learn that in the opinion of the joined 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
10:12 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. so at home graph, nuclear power is actually not the best for the future. now their energy 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. plus my direct 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 country's grid operate to r t also insist that nuclear is essential to the energy portfolio building you nuclear reactors, is economically viable,
10:13 pm
especially as it makes it possible to maintain a fleet 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 you. 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 over. during this pinch, some e leaders know which way the wind is blowing and of even asked the commission to rethink its freeze on russia. forget about ever becoming independent from russia. these will never happen. there is also concern that this shift towards nuclear
10:14 pm
power being 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 rush over gas. shipping to nuclear won't change the need for that relationship with moscow. not only to some elements that essential for nuclear fission 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 it energy needs look sec to remain tightly linked to moscow. experts know that we must rely on russia gas. no problem about that is there are maybe they would prefer to have l n g coming from the united states, but we need outside sources. russia has always proposed long term contracts to governments. so the governments for the moment, they don't really complain about the small prices of gas that are so i,
10:15 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 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 european commission is used. oh, 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. british and he is have conducted a post mortem on the native trip withdrawal from afghanistan during the evidence session. basic mistakes were identified was only one option that was withdrawal. does it worry you when it's silly? does me put on a serious issue like this?
10:16 pm
there appears to be not across government approach to this in terms of joined up approach. this seems to be some variance here in the time. it's inevitably, there were some very difficult questions pointed to the defense secretary from the committee. his very job is to hold foreign policy to account this committee is are primarily really angry because so far the government has refused to launch a full scale inquiry into the withdrawal of afghanistan over the summer. and so the committee have almost taken upon themselves to launch this any inquiry into the evacuation. the time today really from m. p. 's was twofold, really one on the one hand, they feel like the entire episode was a monumental figure in terms of foreign policy. but also a real let down moment for the moral obligations of the afghan people as well. now it all kicked off surrounding the p steel that was struck with the taliban, which ben wallace, the defense secretary, basically shucked responsibility for the united kingdom's role in the withdrawal
10:17 pm
decision. if you don't deliver ammunition to the afghan forces and they run out of bullets, that's when they're gonna drop their guns, get rid of a uniforms and go home because they will see the winds of change once again sweeping across, garnished on. so it's a critical schoolboy area that was made while much of the session also focused on the intelligence failures. of course, you'll remember back in the summer then foreign secretary dominic rob appeared to be on holiday sunbathing, while kabul fell so many questions about whether the intelligence was wrong or whether or not it was misread. and how on earth many key players in all of this were simply nowhere to be seen. while the defense secretary much like many ministers and military experts full back on that argument, how over the last 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 use
10:18 pm
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 of pick to the big a political picture in terms of its campaign didn't walk. i don't think we were defeated nature with a to enable that. he camp political resolution and political campaign. and i think that he's what failed. we were the enabler, the military with that to put in place the security environment. wanted to try and deliver that. when that was withdrawn, that's 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 want onto the many people all came what went wrong, and why did the united kingdom leave afghanistan and how one of the telephone took over so quickly. plus, of course, the key issue that one and a half 1000 people ask on interpreters included the all eligible to be relocated
10:19 pm
here in the united kingdom, a still stuck in the region. plus, interestingly, around 30 british citizens are too stuck in the region. they're accusing 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 in our families. but just a final point then the chairman of the committee to bar is our speaking of the doc, quite long session. he said the group are only just scratching the surface today and they'll be many more uncomfortable moments. full members of parliament that actually were key players in the withdrawal of afghanistan, written secret services and storing their most classified documents on amazon. the u. s. company has reportedly landed lucas have contract with government communications headquarters and my 5 and i 6 set to use the cloud system according
10:20 pm
to report the contract will allow spies to share information more easily from abroad and allow from greater integration of a i amazon look center line to 1000000000 pounds over the next 10 years, and the g u, the u. k, and amazon have so far, refused to comment, was spoke with for m, i 5 intelligence officer, an image shown who things imposes on u. k. sovereignty. i find it astonishing that the most secret national security information contained by m i 5 and i 6 and g t h king can be outside to a private corporation based within another nation. fate. i mean, they've always, 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 out sourcing of british national sovereignty that is going on here. and it would say, well, alex america,
10:21 pm
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 an absolute cooling i minutes push for i transition to clean and injury burden is plenty of caution centers to help household go green and the 5000 pound crunch and fail to encourage people to install heat pumps, so threatened to leave brief out of pocket. so the grant is part of britons push to phase out gas boilers. but a cheap heat pump reportedly called just under $9000.00 pounds after installation, which is much more than a basic boiler. the cost isn't expected to be offset by cheaper monthly bills,
10:22 pm
either since heat pumps use electricity, which costs more than gas. and for some a where it is trashed financially, swing out the boiler is not viable. with somebody and i for each person by myself retire or where are they going to? so i'm 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, your electricity county would still increase. so i don't think anybody's going to get a want them think of the cost, the ridiculous other mom and about 85 percent of the u. k. homes i hate to buy gas boilers. and that counts for
10:23 pm
a good chunk of the countries carbon emissions. but hopes of driving that percentage down will rest on convincing critics who feel hate palms have not been properly sold through just a lot suitable for the normal english on economic costs rather than the lazy. they're not reliable. i built a house years ago. and i am full to the house from suite and that house came with the installation of me missing the clause, the walls ceiling and the roof virtually hated itself. and 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 of elephants filled the houses the only way that they are going to stop building no sort of the law that they have to
10:24 pm
try sandra's in the us show, no sign of easing anytime soon. the secretary of the treasury has said inflation rates on line to remain at near decade heights until at least the 2nd half of next year. and to give you an idea of how that's hating people in that pocket, the prices of used cars and steaks shall tell by more than 20 percent. and if you won't eggs with your stakes, you will pay 30 percent more for them compared to the beginning of this year. while furniture and bedding are by double digits, percentage points as well. us official saving flacier rate, he's way above the full cost. the common charge to the economy has cause 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. and it's not just the us that has been hit hard. the chief economist for the international monetary fund won't inflationary pressures around the globe will remain at least until the middle of $20.00 to $22.00 as june part to
10:25 pm
disruption to supply trains during the pandemic. and in the u. k. it's the poorest, who appeared to be the hardest paid the opposition labor party claim. those left went off, paying up to 50 percent, no on energy bills compared to wealthy families. marks kind of a host of the kinds of report on i'll see, believe the money printing policies. a washington in 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 trillions and trillions of dollars, it ends up increasing prices. the purchasing power of this money is going to decrease, so everything will cost more if you're using fee money. this is an experiment that goes back to 971 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
10:26 pm
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 cpi, 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. moved. the only way to stop it is to raise interest rates down ross, or 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 on the fire if they were to raise rates, even a quarter of a percentage point, they were throw the entire leveraged economy of the u. k. and britain into complete parallels ation. so they've really put themselves in an untenable position. and i
10:27 pm
10:29 pm
theirs sinks, we dare to ask oh, dying 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. i had gotten stuck with so many needles by day. there's a few points that were really the turning points that he
10:30 pm
paid to. so if you reach out here were searching new medical problems in the united states. not the doctor's holy crap. he's gonna die. oh no, he's the better. it was. i wouldn't want my worst enemy to go through that. i'm out of breath. in 2019 doctor started talking about a new wide spread. does he used that caused severe lung damage that followed an outbreak of more than 3000 cases in the us. 64 of which were fatal
