steve adler understand sacrifice, he is the mayor of austin, texas. great place, a lot of people are moving there, one of the most charming cities that we have. if you have been to austin recently, you may notice huge numbers of mentally ill drug addicts crapping on the sidewalk and stealing things on mugging people. steve either did that. steve adler wants to make austin, texas, most welcoming to the people welcomed least. he is also concerned about the coronavirus. so worried that steve adler has commanded his constituents to stay home for the duration. he informed them this from a time-share in a mexican beach resorts. he had flown there secretly on a private plane with people he is not related to. sounds fun, but don't try it yourself, steve adler might punish you. here he is. >> we need to, you know, stay home, if you can, do everything you can to try to keep the numbers down. this is not the time to relax. >> tucker: yeah. unless you happen to have a private plane headed to cabo. otherwise, stay home! that was mayor steve adler's message to his

earlier, i spoke with our europe editor, katya adler.as a lively and interesting discussion. we've heard from the uk that it was a frank discussion which would imply that it wasn't necessarily so friendly. i think both sides totally agree that gaps still remain. as you say, talks will resume tomorrow, will go on until sunday. is sunday the deadline or is it just the latest deadline? of course, we have seen so many brexit deadlines come and go. to take a decision on the future of the talks we're told by the end of play on sunday could mean to carry on talking or it could mean of course announcing a deal or no deal. the very firm deadline that we have is the end of the year, the 31st of december. it's then that the transition period ends. that's when the uk fully comes out of the european union, it legally did so on the 31st of january. practically, it has remained in the eu's single market and customs union for the rest of this year. as of the 1st of january, no longer. and it was by the end of this year that the two sides wanted this tra

she wants to help people maybe a little awkward but she's got a really sweet heart my name is tommy adler i'm in a criminal defense attorney here in oklahoma city we represent dr ragan nichols or i really like her very much. doctors lose patients all the time. to accuse a doctor of. acting in reckless disregard for her patients when we believe that she was genuinely attempting to care for them. is a big step for the government that say. that exposes doctors to a lot of risk troubled people these patients were abusing the things that they had access to. it wasn't the amounts that dr nichols prescribed these people that killed them it was the amounts that they did. her line of defense is set to shift away the shadow of responsibilities dr nichols was an irreproachable professional who was duped by drug addicts and she never had any awareness that her patients were facing any danger whatsoever nowadays in oklahoma city addiction can be seen at every corner. i think america got here because we are the most medicated country in the world. we are a country of fast food quick fixes now now i now

period and therefore the uk's current arrangements is now only 11 days away. 0ur europe editor catcher adlerwatching developments from brussels. it isa it is a case of so near and yet so it is a case of so near and yet so far. the negotiating team continued all over the weekend but it seems they are stuck. there are a number of open—ended discussions and for example the uk government said just tonight that it thinks the eu offer on government subsidies is unbalanced but really, we‘ re subsidies is unbalanced but really, we're coming down to fish. you might be surprised because ——and you might be surprised at that because in purely economic terms, the fishing industry isn't worth much to the uk or to the eu, but one of the big brexit promises was to get back sovereignty over uk waters, and that's what the uk government is pushing for in these negotiations. but there are eight eu countries where the coastal communities are extremely important as well. politically, fishing is important to them. so, the eu says it wants to maintain some fishing rights in uk waters after brexit, otherwise it says

president trout has who he says are all on which is a medical spokesman name scott adler's he's a park's news commentator who exactly parrots the line that the trouble ministration expresses that a mass probably useless schoolchildren don't transmit the earth and to make the test change should be limited to only people in critically endangered groups travis a says things that he says off of the united states doing better and he certainly is doing better than they're the united kingdom on deaths per capita well in the case of britain i mean i think you know i'm. it is now obvious that a deliberate strategy of herd immunity. was followed that the johnson government. deliberately decided to minimize damage to. the economy by letting the disease essentially spread and the catastrophic failure of the u.k. government. to come immediately to the aid of people in senior homes and. nursing moms nyquist same thing as news sweden which explicitly. darted herd immunity and behind this there is a kind of. would i would consider enormous new nazi. germany as it were whole lies unworthy of light and th

or as the bbc‘s europe editor katya adler puts it... it's a clash of ideologies, basically.entral to the very idea of the eu. as a political project, it is unique, and it's also one of the biggest free—trade areas in the world. access to that is arguably the biggest benefit of being an eu member. no wonder the eu wants to protect it. but the economic benefits are just the start. these pictures are from 2018, when angela merkel and emmanuel macron, arm and arm, marked a deeper commitment to france and germany working together. for them, for many within the european union, this commitment to co—operate, to be closer, is rooted in the second world war and a desire to never let war return. the single market is a symbol of that co—operation and that commitment. again, no wonder the eu wants to protect it. but on the other side of these trade talks is the uk, equally committed to the ideas and ambitions that underpin brexit. but the only deal that is possible is one that is compatible with our sovereignty and takes back control of our laws, trade and waters. after all, if you prom
