u. k. economy and the u. s. economy. of course nancy pelosi is over in the u. k. traffic house and she's been barking on about the fact that she's going to, obviously for the u. k. u. s tre. deal in the northern protocol as hell too, but that's another issue why i wanted to hit on that. why is that? an issue that an american law maker would start to criticize and say, such a thing. you should remember that over a 1000000000 dollars with a trade is conducted between just california, her district and the u. k alone. so she's actually the british and she's been very small about this. the british embassy is going to congress with a report by congressional district and state state congressional district of how many american jobs are in those respective u. k. jobs and american jobs are dependent on u. k. business. so it's very smart move by the british empathy. but what it is, is that in colors you have a lot of american politicians that have irish roots and don't want to see that protocol broken, but not to does anybody in the u. k. in the u. k. they will piece also t

u. k. ties. those i think are extremely strange. we've got to remember the concepts of the bilateral franco, u. k, u k. from the relationship, it was already once where there was really little trust because all partial government behavior on implementation regarding the protocol. and this is obviously fit into our context, you know, relations we're not starting from a blank sheet of paper. and then the last point i will be very briefly is i do believe we're moving to a situation that you can your, which will be a bit more tension, a bit more escalate tree. it's highly likely that they will spend the northern ireland protocol notified by the commitments they find 2 in 2019. but again, it's going to, i think, really. okay. and then how does those comments from, from boris johnson go down there in france when, when he told president micron to get a grip and give him a break? well, will nothing about that, you know, we consider as a region as a junior partner. and this is one of the reasons we did not call back katherine court and the french investor in london, london is just begging i am an agenda. and i t

u. k. u k, is mired in class war, you know, and that's and mistaken goal. and it's, it's pernicious and it's ugly. and, and look, look at what they say on the news. the cable news is they're part of the top one percent. obviously rachel matto, for example, making 30000000 a year for one show a week. right. so that puts you in the top one percent that they keep on saying is the fed needs to keep printing to help the poor to help the poor to help the poor we doing it for you, hurts us more than it hurts to. so that's that propaganda to continue this policy that the data shows is causing the strive. exactly, well, we're going to take a break and when we come back, dr. michael hudson, don't go with the me. ah ah, ah ah, ah, i will. i join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world. the politic sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me the me welcome back to the kaiser report i'm time out of turn to dr. michael hudson is the author of super imperialism which is about to be available once again. it's 3rd edition and coming out at the end of the month dr. michael arts and welcome back to be back. all righty. so the book is called super imperialism, the origin and fundamentals of us world dominance. when did you 1st publish it? or in what's the main faces? i published it in september of 1972. just 13 months that united states went off bowl. and at that time, people were wringing their hands and saying, oh, now that the u. s. law told at last, the civility to control of the country. and i pointed out that one countries and central banks didn't gold anymore to action. the us balance of payments deficit which isn't higher late military, there was nothing they could do was saved by foreign reserves, but by us treasury security. and my argument was that the by the replacing bowl with us treasury securities meant that other countries are international reserves by financing the us military balance and payments. because all throughout the 19 fifties and 960 days. and after the 7 days, the entire us balance of payments deficit was the result of the war and southeast asia and elsewhere around the world. the private sector was exactly in balance. so when people talked about the dollar glove, this is the dollar coming out from military spending abroad. well, i wrote the book thinking, well this will created react, be supported by socialist left out, arise and resist the dollars. but immediately upon publishing wi

u. k. at his diplomatic that seems to have escaped some censure from france. i was this playing out in the u. k. well, the u. k is not having its french ambassador recalled in the same way that the united states and the australians have done. but that doesn't mean that the french are happy with the role the united kingdom has played. and in this deal, they have essentially fed through the foreign ministry, the 3 for a minister that the u. k. is nothing more than i kind of vassal state of the united states as to how this is playing out in the u. k. i think this is being seen as perhaps the french being a little bit hysterical about things as throwing their toys out of the prime to a certain extent. but you have to acknowledge that france has been really, really thrown under the bus and this, and i think in the u. k, that view is not being ignored. they can see that this was a big deal for france. they can see that this is a humiliation for macro and, and they can see that this throws french strategy in the indo pacific region into disarray. so the rivalry between france, the united kingdom is long, it goes b

u. k issue. this is a worldwide issue. so it's not just in the u. k, but the reason that the u. k. government is holding back on this is because for the whole reason what they want to do is they want businesses to hire local u. k. british workers. that's what they want them to do. so that's why they're holding back and they're holding back on this. and they also want u. k. well, because to be trained up for these jobs, they don't just want to have a visas extended for those in europe. that's why it's being held up. hillary ford, which of the british american business association. thank you so much for breaking all this down. pleasure. and finally, at an event ahead of the 2021 munich auto show volkswagen an argo a i gave the 1st look at an electric autonomous vehicle, the id buzz. now the van is built around the concept of the iconic v w micro bus. but the vert, this virgin unveiled in munich is covered in high tech centers to bolster itself driving capability. companies say the id buzz will be tested on public roads in munich, as well as a private track in the city, with hopes o

u. k, the u. k. scene, a sharp drop in organ transplants since the covered pandemic took cold across the world will follow from it. according to a new study organ. transplants that were done around a quarter last year, which resulted in about $7000.00 people having to wait for an important operation of figure not seen for 9 years. around $500.00 patients died while waiting for a transplant that's 30 percent more than the previous year. we spoke to a policy director, kidney k, u k, who told us he believes is going to take years to catch up with pre pandemic numbers. what has been happening because of the pandemic? was that a lot of transplant systems across the whole world? how to stop? well, not completely stop, but how to partially stop. what not has meant is that there are now more people on the transplant waiting list, hoping to receive a transplant colleagues on the medical professionals think that it could take up to 3 years for the numbers to be able to fully catch up again. although many countries, the numbers are catching up slightly, you know, feel lead that will worldwide. the overall drop in transplant activity was 16 percent by the end of last year. research say they've been big concerns around exposing living donors to coven and all specials. but again, that representative saying they valuable lessons to be learned now from the pandemic in different ways, a different countries are doing best to bring their system's back up again and have in the

u. k. plays a crucial role here because the u. k. is in this agreement, we contain china agreement, and i've been also blustering about what we're sending our warships into the south china sea. but do you guys also in nato and is going to push a strongly anti russian line. and so it's going to be very difficult, i don't think germany really having the will to fortune you direction. okay. but we've been glenda that assumes that russia really is a branch who to the european union. and i would say it's not, but i mean can, can, can you play that fiction forever? i mean, considering the resources you're going to have to devote to it. i mean, sir. ok, it's still up in the air. what we're going to have the german election, the greens have any kind of real power. i would tend to agree with george ok. but brand certainly doesn't feel that way, italy, spain, and so forth. i mean, it's going to be kind of an internal nature minus us will be the nato members in europe. it's going to be a real interesting squabble. ok, because you end up in a way wag the dog situation with the eastern. so we know what these to be in their role in the, the coolant in 2014. and in give me the didn't serve the purpose of mission, but they got stuck with it to get to get stuck with an anti russian agenda in georgia. suggesting yeah, well that's the problem. that's how the your pm security institutions have been set up where you have got to have a europe completely unified except the largest country and obviously in europe without becoming or began automatically you will have conflicts, someone didn't. so the problem gets them to go back and looking at some of the initial structures in a 990. of course, different become an opportunity to make me reconsider about the of the, the eastern european members about, you know, they, you know, they're like, well, you banjo, they just have this rushing component of the foreign policy and what they're loving for. and, and so, but again, for congress like from there, there is a bit of a dilemma, because if you want some strategic relevance in the world, on one hand, traditionally and for the past decades, they're relevant to hinged on the us having a key interest in europe. in the front line against russia, which is why they had a central role. but now that says shifting to another place to keep the relevant to the part of their commit to us, which doesn't really care about them. but then they will just become independence. they will, will it become even less relevant, or do they try to form their own independent foreign policy break coming from us, maybe an independent policy towards china and russia. but in this case, americans might undermine them again or punish them for this or so. then they had to do have a real dilemma simply because the world has shifted this, the central god is no longer in europe. this is not where major politics is, what one of the french going to do to remain relevant. obviously, this is the price of being irrelevant. you buy your enemies and you tell your friends, this is carla, can explain this. surely they can continue this way. they don't, in the germans, they strike deals with russia when the american strike deals with russia and pointed out before the stream with a probably concerned a little bit as well. because, you know, they went against the china very, i'm calling all american and they lost a lot of train to the chinese and a lot of people picked up by the americans. so they have to start to think of some point whether or not in their national interest are then bidding on their own horse . there's a lot for the stigma. so george americans back bills. i think that was lead was saying here in all of these calculations, the o. s is the center of gravity, but when that's the gravity starts moving around. predictable way in states. weight is, is less less attractive because what they would have been doing us were had. yeah, well i think, you know, if the europeans want to be relevant if france wants to be irrelevant and wants to get washington's attention spanish it was you a foreign policy that doesn't. why that, that gets washington's attention. if wrong. a gall. yeah, exactly. if macros saying, hey, i think it's time for a, a new relationship with russia, and he would stop signing. it was sort of agreement visiting russia put in visiting parents. and so that would get washington's attention. if you go wine a, oh please, please, please pay attention to ours, where we're still, frankly involved in the well, you're watching those that we thought all this, you know, we've been hearing this for decades. you know, we know that he was going to come round and do what we say in the process. you know, but a question about germany, but prosperity has an opportunity and out, as you say to you, i goal is the foreign policy. it would then have to go against the u. k, because the u. k. still very influential within nato. and would have to then see what happens with the weather in germany. some new kind of leadership going to merge that will have your a really con, just go on hiding behind america. wherever you georgia me. you know, not telling them the, their nato outlines they were leaving. dennis den number one. then we have this submarine deal. number 2, in very short succession, we have american patriot missile systems being removed from saudi arabia and other places here. i mean, a lot of things are moving around right now. one thing is for sure, the, these old in stone principles about foreign policy architecture. they're all moving away, they're crumbling, like deaf and oh, and this is, nato has a good opportunity to rethink. and so maybe we think itself out of existence to start talking about its own real national security here. gentlemen would run out of time when they are slowing in budapest. i want to thank you for watching and here

u. s. u k doesn't seem to have suffered quite as much of an indignity if you like, least diplomatically speaking is the u. s. and stillia have what's the reaction in the u. k to all of this? well, i think the reaction in the u. k. depends on ready which parts of the cohens area you're looking at and how they feel about france and how they feel about the current british government. there are sections of society and political life in the u. k. that likes getting out the nose is the french and therefore is, i think, amused by what's been going on. certainly thing. so the french being a little over hysterical throwing that toys out of the prime box. i'd say there are a great many people here who also think that the french have been very hard done by and this new situation. and that's the, the deal that's been done between the united states, the u. k. and australia. although it has advantages for the certainly has not perhaps been the best handled. and the french could be considered to be rightly aggrieved to having lost numerous things. they've lost a very lucrative arguments deal, a multi $1000000000.00 deal with australia. they've also lost faith ready. they

k is now in the perfect storm, perfect storm and a negative weight. because to watch it, many your workers who work inside the u. k. left the u. k already far, because it was in the stable but the fuel cases, the problem at the moment. but it's to do with the general public, they are the ones who are causing that issue a shortage of fuel, but it's a shortage of drive. most people simply buying too much fuel and the same goes on. sure. but even the worst sort of jumping. now this person has got to realize that they can get sure no problem as a genuine concern for ki, walk us through, can all get better stations genuine. we need to get fuel to get to the what the government well talking about. and it was almost like the government. and then while the case mobilizes the army to candidates fuel crisis across in mainland europe, the u has decided to keep funding fossil fuel projects until 2027 parent li, going against the box policy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. we'll have the details just after the break. ah, i join me every thursday on the alex salmon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politic sport business

u. s. and u. k. the deal between the u. k. u. s. in austria is widely seen as an effort to count of china's influence in the region. recalling ambassadors in the carefully coded language of diplomatic relations is, is a pretty serious move. it's not the breaking off of diplomatic relations, but it's what you do, what you want to show to a country that you really are not happy with the way it's behave. and let's not forget that france is the united states oldest allies, allies, a relationship that goes back to 1778. when france recognized the independence of these breakaway colonial states. and help them in that war of independence against the british b, u. s. military, as i mentioned, a drone strike and i've kinda sounds capital last month, kill civilians of not isolate sciences. 10 people including 7 children, died in the attack. in cobble top us commander has apologized guineas. military leaders say that they will not bow to international pressure to let detained president of a condo fly into exile. the west african regional block

u. k. citizens, all u k. nationals, and indeed all of those assisted and the occupation assisted the british army and the occupation of the last 18 years would be able to return to the united kingdom. however, as the weeks and days then passed, many ministers in parliament was saying, not everybody would be able to get out. and now dominic rob, as we heard, is it missing? he has no idea how many british citizens still remain in africa installed, but it's actually maintain that the u. k has done a good job and that people should stop attacking the u. k for its own as occupation process. anyone getting back passing briefings either at me or the foreign commonwealth and development office is frankly not credible. and it is deeply responsible. we have absolutely been on this and you can see we have been on this. why? because we have got 17000 people out. well, it's not just the u. k. citizens that are in need of returning here to the united kingdom. but many, many africans are absolutely desperate to flee from the taliban takeover as well and have been e mailing the united kingdom, the foreign office trying to get some help. so what we're hearing now is the minister has admitted that emails from schools of people have not only not been replied to a process, but not even being read by many, many ministers here in westminster. meaning that many people are still stuck in the region and fearing for their lives without any sense that they will ever be able to get out. des

u. k. a deal between the u. k. u. s. and a strongly or is widely seen as an effort to counter china's influence in the region. an expert panel in the us has rejected government plans to roll out cove and 19 a booster shots to all americans age 16 and older. it cited a lack of safety data on extra doses and doubts about the value of mass boosters bought in doors to extra 5 by and take shots. people above the age of $65.00, hundreds of police officers deployed around the us capital for of rally by far right groups organizes of the justice, the j 6 rally showing support to those arrested for taking part in the capital riots in january. hundreds of people breach the building and it be to overturn the former president donald trump's election to fate. those are the headlines. stay tuned for inside story. i'll be back at the top of the hour with more news. bye for now. news. news. news. news. and the conflict of face and you sanction us surge is all sides. and he is he great region for negotiate? peace, but will the threats be

u. k. seem to be operating independently of ne, to hear that divisions inside the block. oh, no doubt, no doubt. and the u. s. and the u. k. since world war 2, especially the u. k. a few years afterwards, especially after their misadventure is more against egypt and $956.00. the, the ruling ally in, in the united kingdom decided they have a position as the junior partner of the united states. and so they operate that way . they operated that way and regard to the iraq war, 2003, when there was a position within there. there's a lot of there's a lot of differences they had to do with huge amounts of money. the contracts for our summer, but they also have to do with what i think it's called inter, into realist rivalry between the us and frank taking that most of that plays out in africa. but it also is playing out to do richard becca. and he will activist at coalition. mr. becker, thank you very much indeed for your time. thank you. and we're now moving to the heart of moscow and our special coverage of the force coming elementary election voting will be held over 3 days. it will run from friday to sunday and across the way

u. k. is the u. k. prime minister par is johnson. he's been in washington, he's been visiting president biden. afterwards he spoke to reporters and he was asked about this and he said, i think it's time for some of our dearest friends to donate and break. give me a break. so i show, he's pretty any great olive branch is out towards the french. at this point we're telling you the u. k. prime minister been in washington on his way back to new york . he will be addressing the general assembly towards the end of the session today. in new york, i would estimate about 10 hours from now. so let's talk about what president biden is up to you today. he's hosting a venture world coven summit today. what can we expect from that? yeah, it's all virtual because they have the, the, the main meeting, the leaders meeting of the general assembly in person, lots of the people here and they've decided all the side meetings should be not in person because of the risk of cove it. i can tell you just don't cove it that the brazilian health minister has tested positive for cobra. 1900 wall here, while meeting dignitaries is even the picture of him shaking hands with the man. i was just discussing the u. k. prime minister boris johnson. so cobra on everyone's minds here, many of those who are here will be attending virtually the summit convened by president biden in washington. we're

u. k. then while the u. k. mobilizes the army to curb it's field crisis across mainland europe. b. u has decided to keep funding fossil fuel projects and for 2027 . apparently they go against the rocks policy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. will have the details on this story. and so to take the the ah, me a try now where we with so many inputs on a daily basis that are completely needed to reality. so think about how in social media filters and they basically present themselves and very unrealistic way. and so we come to a farm out there and be involved more than that, it's about being sort of envious of something that may not exist. and it's also really tied to the fact that humans, we want to be part of the crowd. ah, again, that already strained relations between the u. k. m. from to being tested further by a surgeon migrant crossings on the english channel. number of refugee boats making that journey to britain has doubled since last year and has seen london and paris exchange threats over what should be done. we made the less handle crossings each month, not more. it's vita

u. k. u, he put the number of, of u. k. nationals in afghanistan still in the hundreds, but some here estimate that the total figure of those at risk as well as those on the u. k. don't lists for relocation could go into the thousands dominant. rob refused to enter to go into details about his own actions on the weekend when the telephone actually took car bull. he and prime minister for bars johnson what both on holiday at the time. he has criticized the focus on that previously as a back biting bugs his colleagues. he also refused to go into details of allegations the thousands of emails outlining urgent cases, meeting evacuation, going to the foreign office, went on read an on on search. his basic message was the u. k is continuing to try to evacuate. people from afghanistan, officials are already in a neighboring countries. park is done, is back on subjects done dominant rob himself is heading to the region on wednesday . it's expected he'll visit pockets on as well. as cutoff where you k officials already holding talk

u. k, the united states and australia a u. k. u. s. is being dubbed, and part of that is the analysis of a multi $1000000000.00 submarine deal. the only snag is australia had already agreed to deal with the french, according to paris. and now renee, going on that deal. of course, that means pirates losing out on billions in contracts and, but also of course on the status on the world stage are being shunned in such a way and it's having political consequences. the french defense ministry cancelling summit that was due to be held a bilateral summit with the brits. we understand the reports of florence, paula, who is the french defense minister personally called for that meeting to be council . the british side are denying it. they say that this is merely a postponement, it's not a cancellation of that. 3 meeting the french side, haven't commented on those reports yet, but that it all comes, of course, as tensions continue. and some of the words coming out from the french side really harsh when it comes to their view of events, saying th

u. s. and the u. k. today they work within their own proper alliance. the u. k . australia and the and the u. s. trust themselves more than the new trust countries like france or other ones, community or even germany. don't forget the manual macro said a couple years ago that data was brain dead. even donald trump said that nato isn't working, as it was initially supposed to be working or alliances within the alliance. what kind of lion is this? where people use drop or contracts are taken over us doesn't have, didn't have a allied, it only has targets or it has vessels. australia, the us on france repeatedly cited the suppose it's security threat from beijing in the in the pacific region where china is the dominant power and the signing of the orchestra security pipe companies. just months off, the britain infuriated beijing by sending its war ships to the south china sea to join, so called freedom of navigation operations, led by washington and china has condemned the new lions calling it a throwback to the cold war. countess should not build exclusionary blocks targeting or harming the interes

u. k, u s. u security alliance, st. u k. united states alliance. this is a quick, one of the, the quick questions. yes, that's the trans atlantic relationship. yes. so really briefly, i think i'm trying to go see some change in germany, no matter who comes into the office because the german consensus sometime changing from a reading or countenance approach a bit naive perhaps trying to include china and the global system to a more confrontational approach closely uniting itself with the us and russia. there's going to be continuity, i think, not seem to have done that. the issue that everyone talks about, that sorta thunder sanctions at the heart of germany, russia policy and they will likely continue again. and each chapter defend spending is the one that people tend to tend to talk about globally. and that there i can only say that no german, particularly of the 2 percent defense spending. busy go so very likely to be disappointing with us for those who were hoping for more there. i think the question mentioned the office i'll catch back the last

u. k that. and while the u. k. mobilizes the army, he knew crisis across mainland europe, the u has decided to keep funding fossil fuel project to 2027. apparently the gun against the broken policy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. we'll have a look at that just off the so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy going from station let it be an arms race is on often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk a try now, where we received so many inputs on a daily basis that are completely unrelated to reality. so think about how in social media filters, and they basically would present themselves in a very unrealistic way. and so we come out of fomo, there is and be involved more than that. it's about the sort of envious or something. it may not exist is also really tied to the fact that as humans, we want to be part of the crowd. ah ah, hello again. i gas prices have his new high in europe, reaching $1150.00 for 1000 cubic meters. prices have been rocketing since the

u. k, they're especially vulnerable because the u. k. they rely heavily on gas for home heating. but despite the obvious reliance on the fossil fuel for electricity, the u. k. has some of the lowest amounts of gas storage capability in europe, leaving the market completely exposed to supply crash. so less than one percent of your stored gas is actually held by the u. k, so now the deficit is making the market nervous. we put winter again. and then finally the catalysts to just tip everything could be china. china's demand for gas has been riding steadily up 8.4 percent again this year. so to satisfy the record demand for gas, china's import the gas work, i could search almost 20 percent, meaning that you have fewer shipment traveling to europe from guitar. so as shipments of gas have turn from europe toward china, flows of pipeline gas 2 year from russia has failed to make up that shortfall. russia has been slow to deliver the pipe natural gas to the region, which raises a lot of questions on whether this may be a deliberate move to bolster in case we're starting close the the noise stream to pipeline. and now octavio, there's a lot of concern that the

u. k. the deal between the u. k. us and astronomy. a is widely seen as an effort to counter china's influence in the region. mexico is hosting the 6 summers of the community of latin american and carven staves. it aims to challenge us influence in the region, representatives from 30 to remember alliance, known and selling. our meeting to disgust is all when the organization of american states, mexico, bolivia, and venezuela are all critical of the o. s saying it has been a puppet of us interest in latin america. and an expert panel in the us has rejected government plans to roll out cobit 19 booster shots to all american that americans age 16 and older. but it, in those 2 extra 5 shots, the people above the age of $65.00 and those at high risk of severe diseases station now for people empower and i'll be back at the top, the out with more news bye for now. me. ah ah, the mexico in a lower cartel is one of the most powerful drug trafficking syndicates in the world, but it's $1000000000.00. now co bosses are also dealers in corruption,

u. k. with being locked down. they weren't given access back into the u. k. a lot of people have tried to break blame breakfast for this. breakfast is breakfast. breakfast is not the issue for the aging drivers. i'm for the lack of training. it's all these other issues combining on top and it's actually a storm of this. all these factors now with regard to poultry, actually the c e o of kelly, turkeys, he's supplies 27 percent of turkey's in the u. k was just on a radio station in london, l l g b. and actually he said that he has so many openings across the u. k. his staff have been going to drop centers basically, begging for workers. there are 2200000 in the u. k. collecting unemployment. and they can't get applicants. maybe people don't want to work in the poultry industry . maybe they want the one to be filtering talkies. but again, there are people who are collecting unemployment and they are not working. so 11 does, is this just a combination of lack of training and also those workers who don't want to work and don't want to drive trucks. they don't want to drive laurie's, there's been an issue for a long time in the u. k, this is going on 25 years poor working out and p social out, and lack of facilities even such as toilet on the major motors in the u. k. and hillary, i want to go back to the story that rachel actually did there about the german elections. what's the take away from that german elections? yeah, for a few

u k and actually signed the full power act. $934.00, poland and germany signed a non aggression declaration. 935, c u. k. and germany signed a naval agreement 1938. the u. k. france and italy agreed to the petition of czechoslovakia between germany, poland, and hungary, $939.00 latvia under stony assigned non aggression ex. we'll germany as fox at our us and i and go from the front door to want. wendy's, of it on your knees, pushed him to marson. i'm from head to foot. isn't type done via the fall is this isn't the magnum folk getting. i guess he stayed on the guns armeno felt ah, it was well known american or the dean henderson thinks of past events are in poland and hungary invaded czechoslovakia before hitler invaded poland because poland and hungary organ already with the nazis and france and england basically through chuckles of ocoee under the bus and they don't really want us to remember that part you see, but they just abandon them. and again, and if hadn't been for stolen coming on the eastern front, they would abandon a lot more people in eastern europe as well. however, on september the 19th 2019, the european parliament adopted a resolution
