u. k. it's in nowadays, it's only going to get worse with inflation of the currency. it's a bit of a crisis. what about the energy issues as well? and we look at the restrict, i think, i mean, i mean the restriction is being sort of get one go on. yes. so precisely, it, you know, at a time when, clearly, the economic situation has turned again very much for the worse. is this really the time to, you know, way encourage the bank has to pay these excessive bonuses again? well, yes, so this, you know, this is not really a good time and it would be ridiculous to assume that by, by taking away the cap and therefore having higher bankers pay that in any shape or form. this is going to be a solution. all is going to be helpful. actually, you cannot expect that at all. and what is the main problem? why is the u. k been a trouble in fact, you can even go back. why do you pay in the past 100 years, perform so much worse and then for than other european economies say the german economy for activity continues to be very low. why is that? and the reason is that is something that's

u. k has reduced. and so it's about 45, i think, 1000000000 pounds, but they've made about 220000000000 pounds as a surplus because the real value of the the u. k. debt declined by about 220000000000 pounds due to the inflation. so, you know, we're not putting things in perspective here. the u. k. does have a big debt to g. d pays about the same size. the us about a 100 percent gdp bornea inflate. when you're inflating on away with a 10 percent inflation, you have to calculate that you have to incorporate that in your analysis. larry summers is smart enough to know that but he didn't. why didn't he do it? you wanted to get some headlines. i think today, and he brought down the power of his tweets, and i think it's a good time to buy the pounds. because i think there overstating the british tesco, irresponsibility, i don't see this is, you know, hyper responsible to, you know, be cutting, running a deficit of 140 actually and 45000000000. when you just ran a search was indirectly of 220000000000. that sounds like a

u. k, it's different, it's still a little bit of a white man's burden less and of course, america is in every cielo, of intelligence, all so called the pathogen. us is about american exceptionalism. it's an extremely america centric view of the world. and we don't need to go back to live east coast to once again state that americans as a rule of thumb simply cannot understand the other. and the problem is the other, which is basically the global south, which is 88 percent of the world's population. now they are finding an alternative model or all sort of converging models. and they are trying to build literally a new system of international relations for from the point of view of from an gym on a point of view, either continental europe, u. k, or america. and the collective west as oh, this is be owned. i'm not to my, this is the ultimate, but it's assumption, but they will never happen. yeah. the history now, but peter, this, this mindset when they call it american exceptionalism. but i mean, and it's eurocentric as well. and it's untenable, i mean, it's really amazing. you know, you l

u. k, it warns it's late monarchy. it's also facing a cost of living crisis. millions of people are affected by rising costs, including a surgeon energy prices. i said big traveled to the north of england to speak with people about the challenges they're facing. once an industrial hub for steel t site has seen better years. the north east of england, like the rest of the u. k. struggling with the cost of living crisis. more than 2000000 people in the country use food banks. and in t side, food banks told us they've been very busy. road called says the cost of gas has forced him to stop heating his home. he's well known in this town. he carries his dog everywhere. he goes, oh, sleep. i'm by him might weigh wilson la, cause the chain book. there are no shop to read into that. the only thing it own silly waste and gut, like most people's, he's been watching the media coverage of the queen's death. yeah. they spend a lot on when you're la they, i say i do have respect to where like bo, it's fake. is the cretan whitmore lik

u. k. 10 years ago. but it's again the, it's a short term mis response from less trust designed to generate headlines mainly. and we'll make it look as if she is doing something. the problem comes down to the fact that we have a, an energy system in this country which is very unstable, which is run by private companies who are in trouble. long before the current. the current crisis broke out and the essential truth of what has been announced this week is that they are going to spend between 20214000000000 over the next 2 years. it's that the bank, right? pay the private energy, the sticky price is that $2.00 and a half pounds a year. now that's ready. significantly higher. it's 2 and a half times high of the property shall also paying for their energy costs this time last year. and so it stay, and this is at a time when energy, when not only energy costs are going up, but inflation is running at over 10 percent. and of course, personal debt in the u. k. is around about $30000.00 pounds per person. so again, this

well, it is a proper job is that the, the roles do a great deal of good for charity, for institutions in the u. k. and the commonwealth of the world, and it's a very important job, a very tough job. lastly, i was actually working royals. they are the ones that actually get paid money by the state, the rest of the roads. and we do have to go out and make their living. they have to be very discrete about the way they do it. but in prince charles, i think he's a very sensitive, he's an extreme sensitive and an extreme intelligent. and he's been saying the years, the institution monitoring u. k. very transparent. and he's demonstrate that what he's doing is, you know, it's not extravagant and that it needs to return. i'm sure he will continue to do that. so as far as you're concerned, david brant wins out, the royal family in the u. k. provides excellent value for money. well we've been the same since 2011. ready when when keiko married right through the. ready jubilee through make and harry wedding, the royal family definitely piece a huge can you going into 3 chunks? one is tourism a trade where th

u. k. it's position labor party has been speaking at its annual conference in liverpool kiss. tom focused on the faltering currency urging voters to ditch the ruling conservatives. what we've seen in the past few days has no precedent. the government has lost control of the british economy. and for what they crush the pound and for water. high interest rates, higher inflation, higher boring. and for walt not for you. not for working. people for tax cuts, for the rich is one percent in our society. more from our 0 port brennen his in liverpool. the confidence speech from kiss sama, i think what he's looking at is the conservative party has moved most definitely towards the right, on the list, trusts and under quasi quotes and very much more free markets economy. economics. a being extolled by a new conservative government, and when labor party now sees a vacuum appearing in the senate ground, which is where they believe the next election could be one. business has generally gravitated towards the conservatives and kissed armor opinions to say that labor can now partner with bus

u. k. in general, it's interesting also you don't really think of the u. k as being such a religious country. it's no longer catholic, a large degree. and yet you do have the monarch being head of the anglican church, which is not just the church of england anglican church globally, which is huge. and, and yet, charles said it king charles, that in his speech, you know, talked as he is of his deeply rooted faith. and in her speech in the cathedral just now the best bishop of lung london, spoke of queen elizabeth when she was in her coronation. going and dedicating herself to the church before she allowed anybody to pledge themselves to her. so you do have a very old fashioned traditional family that has at call this protestant effect and this deep link to the church of which they are in charge. and you know that the bus is there as well. and king charles of this, he made the point that this will inform his reign as well. and, of course, the morning process is, is so important. but of course this and all the other events to memory, seeing the queen in the co

u. k, it is not unanimous. and many people believe that the idea of a monarchy in a 21st century country in europe is perhaps outdated, outmoded and old fashioned, and o allen, the plans for this moment, but in place for many years. but how is the city of edinburgh coping with all this attention coming so quickly so suddenly as of house well enough, i was speaking to someone today who knows someone who works with the local council, who are charged with closing the roads and making sure there are enough volunteers to guide people to the places they need to be. and as soon as the queen's death was announced, that plan was taken off the shelf and started to be put into place. so they, they knew which roads would be closed, who would be, where, what would happen the fact that very quickly, everything would be put in place that needed to be put in place. now these plans existed for the queen's home at sandringham for windsor, for buckingham palace, but there was always a feeling that because of the queen's special a

u. k is already hovering around 10 percent. it has been like that the last couple of months so, so meaning i, it's been deeply affected by supply chain issues off the back of the war in ukraine and of everything from fuel and flour. costs going up through the roof. a consumers are deeply worried about they said deeply concerns that that money simply won't go far enough. in response, the bank of england, which acts independently of the government as increased interest rates to dampen the rising cost to dampen inflation. but that, of course, means boring in return, it's more expensive. and this of course, is that exact moment when the british government is hoping to ramp up, it's boring to pay all of these tax cuts in the 1st place. so an awful lot of confusion over what the government's underlying strategy is going forward, anita, with all those worries. i mean, will there be any political costs tool this yeah, that's a big question, isn't it? well, the government really, really strongly believe that i have kick started a new econo

u. k. come to the u. k for that. but it was, it was the 1st jubilee where perhaps we didn't see as much of much of her as we normally do and which, which was quite disappointing, wasn't it? well i think, you know, again, mobility issues were cited and i think she's an old lady getting tired and knew that she never wanted to appear weak or frail in front of the subjects. and, or if you know, there is now a multi 1000000 television audience around the world are looking in just from time to time. see how the bridge road band is getting on. you see where this still is because they watch and she didn't want to reveal to the world any frailties that she may have had. and so we saw less of during the jubilee. but the point in britain is that we don't have a national day. most nations do, but we don't. and so for the celebration of a jubilee, which only comes around once in a while is the way in which we all joined together and trial. very best to say that we all one as a nation. and let's talk about last year, april 2021. and when

u. k . after it was halted in 2019 the class action lawsuit is accusing matter of skirting policies, put in place to protect i phone users from being tracked the parent company, facebook, whatsapp, and instagram allegedly built a secret workaround. this enabled them to dodge measures rolled out by apple last year. often spoken on deal with d to be business of the environmental impact of so called fast fashion. here in europe, there's a taste for buying cheap clothes off made in a factory in asia, and then swiftly throwing them away again, bringing more close manufacturing to europe. shores could be one way of kicking, a destructive habit. and one of the continents biggest retailers is doing just that lasers give these genes from germany a worn look, without relying on chemicals. they're made by clothing companies, cna, at its factory, and mention glad back. production is high tech work that would need many people is handled mostly by machine. only 100 seamstresses work here. the plan is to produce $8

u. k. given what's going on, economic lee still makes sense. well, i think it was a u. k. then it probably wouldn't be worth it, but the fact is, the demons does not least, for example, in the amount of free publicity, a coverage is favorable to our so, you know, he would have to ask, who is the king prince ruler of fine? and i to find anyone in the world who even though i. ready you find anyone who knows anything about it. so you know, they may not be paying, you know, getting money back. whereas here in the u. k, all morning he is making is one of the world's leading countries. and for the money spent got a great the number to. how mindful don't you think king charles is of the criticism, but the royal family gets as far as that expenditure is concerned. do you think that he will continue with this, this desire to, to be seen at least, to be slipping down? are we going to see more royals expected to pay that way? perhaps by, by getting proper jobs? well, one cannot do. it is a proper job. it rose to a great deal of good for charity, for institutions in the u. k. and the c

u. k. it is going to be queen elizabeth. so final journey from ball model castle here in scotland, the hearse that's carrying her coffin will make its way down the drive where here it's gonna turn right at the top of the driveway. and it's 1st stop is going to be the local village, all volatile, and that's is a village that has very close connections with the royal family. the villagers there for years have been used to seeing the royal family in very informal circumstances, driving the cars around the streets or as the queen used to do in her younger years . going shopping in the local stores, the cortez after leaving ballot, or is going to follow a route along a road called the a 93. it's the most direct route that will take it to the coastal city of aberdeen . a. it's good to do a small tour of operating to a lot of people fair to make her pay their respects, and then it will be head southwards to edinburgh. i'm the palace of hollywood. as you just mentioned, we are expecting a many people to be lining this route. the weat

u. k. it is a gamble. it is a very big gamble. we've seen every single major facet of tax impacted by the statement today, income tax, national insurance, stamp duty for property sale. you know, there's a lot of money here that is going to be not flowing into the check. is that bank account? and i think that has to be paid for one way or another. now you partly touched on this but, but i want to double down on this. there are corporation tax cuts removing to camp on the cap on bankers bonuses reversing the rise of national insurance. those could have quite a few of them that i've just named and not really aimed at helping the working class at all wouldn't know. but as the prime minister in chancellor will say, if we are able to stimulate the economy through giving tax cuts in through putting more money into higher on his pockets, then that will eventually trickle down into, into the pockets of ordinary folk and those on, on lower income, so that's the, the orthodoxy. and that's the ideology, the regular right ideology that this go

means it's going to be a mamma, security operation in london, probably more well leaders in the u. k than that have been at any time before i would think. because remember the last time we had a funeral and then the coronation was in 1952 and it was so much harder to get around the world. air travel was something that was extremely difficult for me from further afield. so i think a very large gathering of world leaders for that funeral, the funeral taking place on the 19th. i don't, i think that was always going to be the date, but i don't think they had any wiggle room to move it. because another important event setting the calendar starts on the 20th, which is the high level week of the un general assembly where all world leaders every year gather. so i think there's going to be a procession of leaders, a logistical and diplomatic nightmare for all the nations evolve, arranging, all the travel, all the jets, all the protocol involved, where leaders will get into london, come to the funeral and then all in a short period of time believing the u. k. heading to new york for that diplo

and it was always going to bring crowds and crowds of people from all over the u. k. from abroad as well, who as he, they want to come and be part of this moment of history as the casket, making its way down the mouth. again, the procession being led by king charles queen's eldest son, now controls the 3rd with his 3 siblings, princess anne, prince andrew, and prince edward. and then all said king charles as 2 sons, prince william and prince harry also worked walking in that procession window last thursday. the age of 96, spite her age it was quite unexpected. and in these last days as being a real national morning, people have come together. she was brought from balmoral castle in scotland where she died to edinburgh, where again thousands of people lined the streets to pay their respects in a very moving moment when her children afford children stood god around her coffin in the cathedral in edinburgh as people members of the public file true to say their good byes. she was then flown down to london. they spent last night in buckingham palace amendment for the royal

u. k. wasn't it in many ways? yes or ben, because she became a queen 5 years after india, not independence in 1947. and she came to india 11 years later. now her 1st visit was the in 1961. as he talked about, the warned that hospitality of indians. and she also talked about the richness and diversity of india, but she said was an inspiration to people like her so that her next visit then once in 1983. and that's the time when the commonwealth heads of government were meeting here in delhi. and that was also the time that she famously gave mother theresa an order of merit. and at that time in the right gandy. india's a female prime minister was there. and it was wonderful to see the speech of leaving seeing a recent alice of the 2 strong, competent and elegant ladies, obviously enjoying each other's company. and a final visit been to india was in 1997. and that was that india was marking 50 years of independence. and that's when the queen, for the 1st time, acknowledged the colonial history between the 2 countries.

it's not quite as straightforward there as it, as it is in other parts of the u. k. no, it certainly is. and there like the rest of the u. k. a lot of people of tens of thousands laying flowers over the past few days. and of course, that distinction about the northern ireland goes like this. there's a division politically, ethnically, religiously, in this country. it's a quarter of a century since there was peace after the 30 year conflict. and then, of course, a whole series of attempts to heal the divisions. and now the royal family were involved in that the queen especially shaking hands with martin mcguinness, a former i r a leader back in 2012. that made a massive difference to the way britain del with ireland, the commitments by republicans to actually stay peaceful and then develop and now an extraordinary political development. we have our, the shin fame, which was once the political wing of the ira and the biggest party and it's vice president. and now the 1st minister designate here, now she originally st. condolences. she's wearing back black when she actua

u. k. it's among ethnic minorities options on the opinions on the monarchy somewhat divided as acid bag found out in the north of england. o, queen's youngest son, prince edward greets a crowd in manchester. this city is known for its diversity, ah, arts, culture and being a trendsetter. and it's hard to escape the fact the queen has died, but not everyone is in the mood for the royal funeral. charlene is a community worker. she feels the monarchy is detached from black communities. if come to this country will not felt quite welcome is that lot raisins in, in england and m and when you blackie, do you know it and feel it? unfortunately. no, he chinese no rec. and he just feels like in that is a big issue in the, in england. and she's never said anything. young men in the local barbershop are also discussing what dominating the news respectively. i don't really bother with others that are these moments of silence and strike to know that because of the quinn, that this is irritating a bit. guy ju

u. k. most notably in the u. s . so it's, it is certainly a bad thing, the global economy and it will become a drag on the global economy, the worse it gets. but it is certainly not a crisis, a global come in the way that it is a crisis locally in the u. k. and for our neighbors, asi selling, thank you very much. indeed for being with us. many facts. ah, you guys, new fiscal policy comes as central banks around the world are sharply increasing interest rates to curb inflation from washington to jakarta. and nearly every major bank is making borrowing more expensive to try to cool down prices the most widespread tightening. the monetary policy on record is raising fears about possible harm to the global economy. the u. s. federal reserve has been by far the most significant player in this shifting global economic policy making. it's raised its interest rate by 3 quarters of a point for the 3rd time last week, and signaling the more large rate hikes are to come. the european central banks expected to continue increasing rates

it would be premature to predict how events of the past few days could impact the outcome of this war. us in u. k. officials, they remain guarded, but they are saying that the momentum for now it belongs to ukraine. we have this report. the front line is shifted further away, but hawk heath is still in rushes. sites as strikes hit, the city on monday, sparking fires killing at least one person and cutting power and public services. retaliation for russia's battlefield losses says president and philadelphia zalinski lenovo hotels. on the one hand, this is a sign of the desperation of those who contrived this war. this is how they react to the defeat of russian forces in the harkey regional. they can't do anything to our heroes on the battlefield, and that's why russia's directing it's vile strikes against civilian infrastructure . volunteers have rushed to the re taken villages to deliver supplies to residence, traumatized by months under occupation. in your minute, your new husband there was seating bombing and shelling. day after day. we had no electricity and the water just on my hood chest, th

u. k. could be complicit in bodies carrying out or white washing human rights abuses. the u. k. government must ensure complete transparency of these funds and how it is supporting human rights. otherwise, the u. k. is essentially supporting the continued repression of people in the kingdom, the fund which is overseen by the british foreign affairs, things at boosting, cooperation between the u. k and the gulf. the funds web site emphasized its support for women's rights in this section on saudi arabia. last year with website has since been modified on the references to women's rights have been removed and highly, which is low make as questions. new prime minister live trust about her selective foreign policies back in june. when she refused to criticize saudi arabia's human rights record and shifted the blame on to russia. what i'm focused on is making sure that we are dealing with the major threats to the world. the number one fret, we're dealing with moment is this rat from russia. in order to do that, we need to make sure that we have alternative energy sources. one of the key sources of energy is the gulf region. we don't dealing in a perfect

u. k and, and d u. so it's, it's a complicated issue, but so one on we, she has negotiated in the last months and this ross and, and joe biden, they bally know, till they haven't had many opportunities to meet. when will they get a chance to meet and what might that personal relationship like? by that is a very warm person, a staunch democrat, proud to be progressive, catholic, irish. and so he, we alike and expect him to treat her with law in a very nice way at the beginning whether she reacts at the same level. i don't know, we really don't know much about her of the personal level to be very frank. that's going to be interesting to watch and see how the relationship develops. federico bindy, thank you very much. taking time to join us that from colorado. thank you for having me. still had hair on al jazeera. oh, we hear from a syrian women in lebanon accuses state security officials of torturing and killing her husband. and the tops are running once again in jackson, mississippi, after more than a week, but

u s. infrastructure. and obviously it was removed from u. k. infrastructure and i think it's in the process of, of been done in the us. what do you make of those western accusations against while way? well, as i said, again, it's very difficult to determine whether, you know, russia, china, or the other state agents are actually engaging in this kind of hacking because they can be spoofed. they can be, they can be basically imitated by outside hackers who could do the same thing and make it look like it was china or russia. so it's very hard to determine whether that's the case. you expect the us to respond to these accusations from china. i would think, you know, out of denial or else the other probably they'll just utterly ignore it. but a denial is most likely i would think of regarding the timing of these allegations from china that the u. s. was trying to hack into this university. obviously it comes at a time where relations between the 2 countries are the, you know, they're not too great to the moment, especially when it comes to tie on
